Friday Confessional
Alright, I’ll be the first to admit that this video instantly shot up to the top of my “that’s cool” list the instant I watched it. Talk about a band getting their fans involved in the creative process!
From the description:
This music video was shot for Sour’s ‘Hibi no Neiro’ (Tone of everyday) from their first mini album ‘Water Flavor EP’. The cast were selected from the actual Sour fan base, from many countries around the world. Each person and scene was filmed purely via webcam.
I couldn’t help but smile as I watched this. I don’t know about you, but I’m actively hunting down this EP with a vengeance. Bands like Sour deserve our support. Throw this video up on MTV and you’ve got a hit.
Makes me long for the days when I got hit in the head by bits of plastic as Trent Reznor destroyed his keyboards on stage just five feet from where I was standing. Now that’s how you connect with your audience
Oh, before I forget, I must mention that I live with an unnatural, unhealthy fear of losing my hair. If I ever…evar…find myself sans follicles, I’ve made a pact with God and all that’s holy and wonderfully sublime that I’ll grow a mustache equal or greater in stature to that of my new found hero:
The way I figure it, once I get the ‘stache, all I’ll need is some booze, a bike, and some broads to make the entire ensemble complete.
Knowing my luck, here I am not-so-subtilely mocking a complete stranger simply because of his looks, when in fact he’s probably a Nobel prize winning laureate in the field of quantum atomic superstructures, and yes, as a matter of fact, he is a rocket scientist. *sigh*
Oh well, whatever. Nevermind. Happy Friday!
