Adventures of Power DVDLast year's Sundance favorite "Adventures of Power" hits DVD on January 25, and Phase 4 Films and Onitsuka Tiger are partnering to give the film one heck of a kick-ass launch.

The DVD launch party will take place on January 27th in Los Angeles, and will feature a live performance by the indie folk-rock band the Honey Bros., a.k.a. the band in which "Entouarge" and "Adventures of Power" star Adrian Grenier plays drums. It will also serve to advertise a concurrent online auction that will benefit VH1's Save the Music Foundation, which ensures that children have access to a musical education and instruments.

The auction will kick off online on CharityBuzz.com on January 25 and run through February 22. Auction items include celebrity-signed instruments such as an autographed cymbal from Ringo Starr and signed drums from Neil Peart of Rush, Marky Ramone of the Ramones and Lars Ulrich of Metallica. Fans will also be able to bid on "experiential" items such as lunch with Marky Ramone and an acting audition with "Role Models" director David Wain. Get more auction details on the film's official site, and hit the jump to check out Adrian Grenier in an "Adventures of Power" music video. Read more...

If you're a fan of celebrity culture and you have HBO, chance are you're a fan of "Entourage." The half-hour comedy series follows the exploits of fictional movie star Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier, from his formative days as an up-and-comer through his first big break (complete with many amusing James Cameron cameos) and on through his first flirtations with the business side of Hollywood. We learned last year that there are currently plans for an "Entourage" movie to follow the series, so when MTV's Eric Ditzian spoke to Grenier at Sundance in January, he had to ask for some update on what's developing there.

For his part, Grenier doesn't really know much yet. "I'm just waiting for them to tell me when to show up, what's my call time," he explained. "I can't wait." Read more...

There's a great little comedy coming out in a limited release this week, a Sundance 2008 favorite of mine called "Adventures of Power," from director Ari Gold. I know the cut that I saw in January 2008 has changed somewhat, and from what I hear it's for the better. Since I already enjoyed the movie the first time around, I'm not too worried.

"Power" follows a young man with a dream... a dream of becoming the greatest air drummer who ever lived. Power (Gold) leaves his small town behind to head east for a national air drumming competition in New York City. Although he's quite accomplished as a self-taught air musician, it's not until Power connects with a team in New Jersey that his training truly begins. It all culminates in a showdown between Power and his hometown rival, played by "Entourage" star Adrian Grenier, who you can see in our exclusive music video above!
