Diary Of A Musician Part III
5/27/02
It's a play on Diary of a Madman, the 1981 Ozzy cd, get it!? Nevermind. This is going to be an ongoing column going into the life of s musician (me), and what I am currently going thru.
Now your favorite good luck band set's out to record a video. As always things began to fall apart at the last minute for the "Video Shoot". I use this term loosely since it's six people, a budget of 2.50, and a camera. The person who was supposed to play Lizzy's dad in the video bailed, so had to find a last minute replacement. After finding the replacement, we met at my house so I could give them a five minute run-thru of the video. An hour later we were ready to go. Although we had a cameraman the guy was so weird that Autumn did all the camera work. Now your asking if she did the camera work, how was she in the video? We will get to that.
First we filmed the scene with Lizzy's mom ctaching her wearing makeup. She drags her down the stairs to the father who ends up beating her. Lizzy grabs the knife as the nursery rhyme go's and kill's her parents. She drags the bodies to the car trunk and drive's towards the woods.
Here we stop filming and drvie to the woods. The setting is a dark, moody, windy playground. the perfect place to finish out the video. The band will be standing around Lizzy as she digs the hole for the bodies. Lights...(or flashlight if you will), Action!!! Wait we forgot a step, oh the Camera's battery is dead! We split up ( A smart thing to do if your teenagers, in the dak, in the woods) to charge the camera while the other's go to a friends house.
The conclusion, ...next week
