Fantastic!

I think I shared this on FB, but I think it would suit the topic of this thread:

I hope everyone had a chance to catch Andrea Bocelli's Easter concert from Milano. If not, here is a link.

No stress. No family obligations. No entertaining. No dirty kitchens. Only lasted an hour... Best Easter ever.

This was the closest we were together during the entire visit.

Four, not three, and it's probably a house, not an apartment.


Great stuff, and I'm hoping that my daughter's high school band director will put something like this together.

Separate Ways by Journey, the middle-class family edition

That's really awesome, but am I the only one who found it ever so slightly creepy to have the camera following the pre-teen girl in the leather skirt?  Also, it bugged me (although it shouldn't have) that the kid with the bass didn't even make the pretense of plucking the strings.

This is awesome, and 1,000 times better if you open two screens and watch the original Journey video simultaneously.
They are pretty much spot-on!

Here's the hard work done for you:   https://vimeo.com/404483016

The dad sells this.  He does a great job.

For some reason I think the fact that it's in front of a home garage (instead of a warehouse loading dock) and the younger daughter is the trollop walking through the video are the funniest parts.

Wow. What a weird and awful video. The family crushed it though.

If you've never seen that video (the original) you need to find... I think it was Guitar Coz that did a step by step walkthrough of the video, with time stamps.  It's HILARIOUS.

It looks like it was edited by a meth-fueled Steve Harris. Great idea but they made it unwatchable. Helluva piece of music, though.

Be thankful they didn't stay that true to the original video. They weren't lingering the camera on her ass.

Straight from Disney animators.  We loved doing this at the park, and fired off a couple on Saturday night.

How to Draw Disney Characters

Seriously, I can't draw stick figures on my own, but these classes/videos make it idiot proof.  We did The Genie, and mine turned out pretty good.
