I Am Ready for My Close-Up

Somehow I managed to become an extra for the new Black Tide music video last Saturday (Oct. 4th). I saw the band play on Sept. 27th and they made an announcement that they needed some extras, so I figured, why not? I have talked with Zakk, the bass player, and Austin, the guitar player a few times, so I had them trying to figure out a way that I could shoot photos of the video instead of just be an extra. They couldn't figure out who to talk to and since they are on Innerscope Records, it probably would of been hard to make it happen. So, I arrived at Fairfax High School in Hollywood at 11am and sat in the auditorium waiting for my "big break." Around 4pm, my break came. They finally called out the extras. I won't tell you what we did, you will just have to wait for the video to come out. My ears hurt and my neck was sore from head banging. That's all I will say. More than likely you will see my ugly mug in the video, so keep an eye out for it, Black Tide "Shout." I will be the bearded old fart next to all the teenagers, haha!

I snuck in my point-n-shoot camera and took a few photos inbetween takes. Hope you like them.
