My Friend, the Rock Star!

Colin, Chriso and PeterHey, remember just the other day I posted about my trip to San Francisco and meeting my new pal Chriso? Well I believe I also mentioned that he’s the drummer in a pretty nifty rock band, ex-boyfriends. Well take a peek at their brand-spanking new music video for the song, “Situation.” It’s damn cool, is incredibly professional, and I think it’s the first time a friend of mine has been featured in a music video!

A bit of trivia: the video shoot was done in the basement of the Armory Building in Mission District of San Francisco. I had the pleasure of seeing the space, and it’s pretty wild. There’s actually a river flowing through the basement!

Danseparc finally found!

Ever since I saw M+M’s (nee Martha & the Muffins) video for Danseparc in a hotel room in Toronto in 1982, I have wanted to see it again. Now that day has come thanks to YouTube. I love Martha & the Muffins. They’re probably my favorite band of all time, and Danseparc is one of my favorite songs by them. I saw them perform once live at The Channel in Boston, and the tour was in support of the Danseparc album. They opened with the title track and I was just blown away. They were the coolest band I’d ever seen. And the video is so whacked. I love it.
