Whoa, I browsed their site and they also made the video for Midlake's - Young Bride, which I also really liked.

Guess what? a lot of the shred that made it to my video uses the same bag from the music video!! And, the way I filmed, you can REALLY see the bag

Me too! I just got the youtube link in my e-mail just today! I was blown out of my fucking mind!

Lon, I feel as though I should buy you a lifetime's supply of passionfruit so that we may gorge and fill our bellies of that sweet and sour delicacy. Super awesome MAJOR PROPS!

How did they think to get Lon?
fyi, modest mouse has put out some great albums as well as some horrendous albums. personally I think you should check out one of these three,

This is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About (the first)
Lonesome Crowded West (my favorite)
The Moon & Antarctica

i've been listening since grade school and these are their three stellar albums that still make me happy when i listen to them today. have fun.

Thanks, bro.

The way you say that makes it sound like you're not skilled, but the video editing was really good

Awesome work champ. Great exposure.

Does this thread need one more person saying how awesome this is? Yes, yes it does. Pretty thrilled that this is for one of my favorite bands. Bringing two things that I love together (neck ties and MySpace... wait, I mean footbag and Modest Mouse) Nice work Lon!

It seem like something to do with Adidas when he is wearing the Rod Laver . There are also very clear scene to show the shoes with Adidas on it. Anyway well made video

All I can say is "wow." That was a very cool video to a decent song. Way to represent Lon, you made us all look really cool. Thanks and congrats.

(If not I'm going to bump the hell out of it forever lol)
