I am still in the process of editing photos from my Miami trip. I have not had a lot of time to do anything but I had a bunch of videos I wanted to blog about so I am going to put them all in one post even though they have nothing to do with each other other than the director is a friend of mine.

1. Girl Talk Interview by Joe Carabeo

The first time I saw Girl Talk he played right before the Gaskets, the band I used to manage. The next time he played before us in Richmond. The next time we played before him. He started getting bigger and bigger and we didn’t. I would have killed for them to have played this show that Joe taped as part of his RVA House Show series. I have seen Girl Talk like 4 times, 3 times with the Gaskets, but never with more than 100 people. This weekend at Terminal 5 will blow that away.

2. We Are The Champions – Vadim Newquist

Vadim was alerted to a party in the street shortly after my man Barack won the election. He grabbed his camera and went out in to the streets. He edited his one camera shot into an amazingly cohesive documentation of the pure joy that New York felt when Obama won the election. I have seen a number of things that Vadim has done, including a video about me, and this is by far the best. I am breaking my temporary ban on politics to post it.

3. Nassau Chainsaw Video – Doug Sakmann

You guys probably saw the Nassau Chainsaw photos the other week. They were insane as you know. Doug directed their video for Behind Enemy Lines. It is extremely fucked up. Lots of hooks and fire and violence. Not safe for work, but not in a sexy way. Holy fuck.
