I really love the physical world that this music video creates. Sometimes you can create more magic without CGI and camera trickery.

“Baseball” music video
My band Wrong Side of Dawn just released a new music video for our song, “Baseball”! Watch me recite part of “Casey at the Bat” very dramatically at the end 😉
Sexy and I Know It
Titus Andronicus – “A More Perfect Union” music video
From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never. All the armies of Europe and Asia…could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. No, if destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we will live forever or die by suicide.
— Abraham Lincoln
A Sunny Day in Glasgow – “Nitetime Rainbows”
A Sunny Day in Glasgow – “Nitetime Rainbows” (Radio K at SXSW)
I’m going back in time and posting a bunch of my favorite songs/music videos that I have yet to mention on Tumblr. Enjoy!
The Hold Steady – “Constructive Summer”
The Hold Steady playing “Constructive Summer” live at The Artists Den.
Icky Blossoms – “Heat Lightning”
Icky Blossoms is one of the most danceable bands around and I have a crush on their music. I saw them in a tiny venue in some hotel in NYC and they blew me away (then I saw them open for The Faint and I was blown even further away). “Heat Lightning” is probably my favorite song on their current album but they are all fantastic. (Good job choosing the opening song for your album, guys!)
The Front Bottoms – “Mountain” video
Why do I @#$%ing love everything the Front Bottoms do? I had to reblog this video for the fireworks, if nothing else.
UPDATE: The Front Bottoms violate basically every fireworks safety guideline / regulation in this video, so don’t try this at home. If you want to learn how to shoot fireworks safely I recommend taking the PGI Display Operator Certification course. The PGI has a perfect safety record and are experts at using fireworks responsibly.
“YOLO” by The Lonely Island
This song is perfection. The safety measures that The Lonely Island advocates in “YOLO” are only slightly more absurd than “safety” proposals that gain traction in real life.
“My Private Asylum” lyric video
Wrong Side of Dawn – “My Private Asylum” Lyric Video
I do not know the person responsible for this, but I am honored that they would put this much effort into a song I wrote with my band.
