Presumably when they've written enough to fill an album. During the meanwhilst, enjoy them on the LoadingReadyRecords YouTube Channel

What a wonderful, bittersweet wrapup to Desert Bus (delightfully neutralizing any stress caused to long-term addicts by the late post). The montage was so great. Last year ended with a bit of a whimper. But along with the surprise at the end of the broadcast, this makes the end of desert bus 2008 a bang.

I hearted it! You guys looked so incredibly exhausted despite being peppy and singing.

Question: Are you going to go PG forever? I know that the *swear* was from DB and wanting to keep it PG for new viewers and whatnot and it was hella funny in the vid, but are you going to stay PG? Pleeeeease say no...

Nope.
We didn't do that to "keep this video PG" either. It was for the comedy.

Besides, can you imagine the pain in going backwards and editing out of the swearing from our previous videos? Ugh.


Also SIX PAGES!?!? I was asleep the whole time. WOW.

Nitpicky sidenote (I don't actually care, before someone jumps down my throat, I'm just a perfectionist and would care about this if I were you): In the credits it says "Music Supervior".

Once again, excellent video, especially after 7505+ minutes of charity fund raising and Desert Bus.

Ooooooooh.
Nice spot.
80s pop...lip-syncing...single, continuous shot...odd wardrobe item worn by multiple people...
Of course, if this video were as simple as that it would have been a shitty update.

WOAH.
I think my mind was just blown.
I saw Paul sans beard, and it took me a second to figure out who it was.
As soon as I did, I ran and burst into the bathroom where my boyfriend was showering just to tell him.
We are both very thrilled at this.
The beard thing, not the me busting in on his shower thing lol.

Awesome work for short notice!!!

Yeah, don't worry about that, I was just grabbing at straws looking for similarities and remembered the odd swimsuit thing from the executive Don't Stop Believing video.

how did you guys change camera operator without a cut or am i missing something


I was about to comment on this. If it's one shot then that was a slick couple of camera transfers. Plus congrats on pulling it off perfectly as one shot. Otherwise, a very slick cut.


... MC Frontalot?

Camera change was definitely smooth. It would have been hard to do that as more than one take. The only place I see an opportunity for a cut is when the camera is facing the fans, and there is no-one in-scene.

You guys, this was awesome. I wish I'd thought to request this song. It reminds me of one of my favourite movies, Empire Records. Good stuff.
Also, using the 'put all the blame on VCR' line, as in the original? Genius.
I also liked that you took a spin about the room with the camera. The moonbase is tiny, yo.

Also, forwarning; next year, I shall have money. And I shall request 99 Red Balloons.

Epic fun.

This is the first time I've seen Paul sans beard. He looks like he's twelve.

I'm a little hard of hearing, and my hearing is worsened by that voice filter used in this song. Could I get the lyrics to this so that I can laugh at a few more jokes?
