YouTube Synergy
So a couple months ago I went to see Scratch Acid at The Showbox and I recorded a video of them playing “Damned For All Time” on my pocket camera. Like any good modern internet nerd I uploaded this video to YouTube for everyone’s enjoyment. After uploading this video, I noticed that someone else had uploaded a video of this same song (and others) from this same show. We had a good laugh about it in the comments. Then a couple weeks ago I found yet another video of this song, from this show, up on the site. The best thing about this last upload is that the right of the screen you can actually see me holding my camera filming the same song. So what you have here is a guy filming me filming Scratch Acid. That is pretty hilarious. I am also visible in this video between :25 and :30 ferociously rocking out to “Eyeball”. That was such a great fucking show.
In other rock and roll news, a couple of weeks from now Roya and I will be in Chicago where we will attend RiotFest. Bands I’m most looking forward to - Youth Brigade, 7 Seconds, Effigies and of course my punk rock idols Naked Raygun.
We’ll also be playing some pinball or something while we’re there.
