I'll go with that. The fact that it's actually in a real prison is pretty... umm... extreme? I dunno. I can't think right. :lol:

I know I thought of a video that made up for a bad song... but it flew out of my head as soon as it popped in. :mad:

ahhh that video cracks me up
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

both that song and vid didnt do a thing for me
i watched the vid and thought "wow this sucks" then i thought "i want jason back. that guy sucks"
then i thought
"fuck i really want jason back"
then "someone bring back jason"
then the video ended
and i missed jason
so i listened to some echo brain
but i didnt do anything for me
so i put on the mp3 from live in mexico
and jason really impressed the fuck out of me :nod:
go fuck yourself.

:lol: Rob's amusing live, though. He spins in circles and spits water. Me and Monkey definitely looked at each other like :wtf: when he did it. :lol: Plus he stalks the stage like an ape with little gremlin Lars, which is fun to watch.

But anyway, I thought the video was cool... but probably only because of the very beginning when they tell the band if they're taken hostage by the inmates, they won't bargain. :lol:

the GC song is that the one where they are dressed like a pizza and strawberry?

now funny vidoes.. that is an ineresting thread and the kings would be.

drumroll please: FOO FIGHTERS..

I crack up everytime I see the Learn to Fly Video.

I do sort of agree with who said if youdon't like a song, why watch he video.. that is when I hit mute ont he remote
It works in reverse also. I may like a song, but hate the video..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

wow I don't think any of us saw that coming.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
