After the success of the "311" album (which is now triple Platinum), 311 released a long form home video called "Enlarged to Show Detail" containing live concert footage, interviews, videos, backstage footage, etc. To make it a unique item, 311 bundled the video with a 5 song EP containing outtakes from the "311" cd. The home video debuted at #1 on Billboards Music Video Sales Chart and is now a Platinum video.

The fun doesn't stop with 311's introduction to the silver screen, though. This summer fans will be treated to a greatest hits album, due out in June of 2004. The disc will be packed with 17 tracks total, two of which are brand new songs. This summer, 311 goes on tour once again in support of the album. Despite that the band just got off the road from a spring tour, they've committed themselves to a balls-out, high-energy romp through the country just to give fans a good time. As if all this wasn't enough, look for a live concert DVD out next Christmas.

In July '95 they released their third cd "311" and once again set out on tour. By '96 the shows and the fanbase had grown considerably - and the media which had basically ignored 311 until then, began paying attention. In September of '96 (14 months after the release of the "311" album) the song "Down" hit the airwaves and became an across the board success at radio and MTV. "Down" went to #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Chart and the follow-up single "All Mixed Up" went to #2.

This spring, fans were treated to 311's crossover into the world of Hollywood when they got involved with Adam Sandler's "50 First Dates" movie. Producing five songs on the soundtrack, Hexum and Co. ... covered The Cure's "Love Song" for the flick. Being big fans of The Cure, 311 were thrilled when Adam Sandler suggested they cover a song from one of their biggest influences.
