We opened for Chicago band Redshirt and had a great time performing at the legendary venue. Interestingly, the two shows we have done at Shank Hall were both in 2004; the other show being on Valentine's Day with our friends Rainy Day Crush. Hopefully we'll get back there again one of these days because it's a nice stage with great sound... and who doesn't love playing in front of the wee Stonehenge?!

It was taken when we played at the Harley dealership in Thiensville, WI for Milwaukee Bike Week. Watch carefully to see a special appearance from our friend "Spider", who repeatedly told us to turn down and ultimately unplugged us because he "didn't like music". Such sweet, sweet memories!

12. Old-School Sunspot Video "Prozac Girl" 2001 http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/x-mpeg, 82.59Mb) Description: That's right, friends, the hits just keep on coming. This is the third week in a row we've brought you "classic" (classic, ha, there's nothing classic about the peroxide blonde in this video and did I steal that bowling shirt from a Big Lebowski convention?) Sunspot songs that have been sitting on VHS for the past few years. This one's a live performance of "Prozac Girl" from the James Madison Memorial High School Arts Week in 2001. Next week, we'll be back with some newer material (maybe another pop-up video if we can work up enough jokes this weekend) but since we're reaching the end of the Aughts, I thought it would be fun to check in on where we were at the beginning of the decade. We have hours and hours of tape from Sunspot concerts, tours, and television appearances over the past few years so we'll be putting up videos from all throughout our history on the weeks in between podcasts. By the way, we'll be coming up on our 100th podcast soon and I promise we'll do it before the end of the year, we'll definitely be featuring the highlights from this year's Sunspot Christmas Party on the 19th!
13. Old School Sunspot Video: Meat Market http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/x-mpeg, 75.71Mb) Description: This one's even older than last week's, but just in time for the holiday, here's another one from the vaults. "Meat Market" is the first actual music video we ever released (thanks to our man, Steve Concotelli for putting it together!) from our first album, Radio Free Earth. Live, we usually dedicate it to Bullwinkle's (a wonderfully sleazy dance club in Madison that the aforementioned Steve introduced me to on underage night when I was still in high school), and we didn't know at the time that years later, Sunspot would host two CD release parties there and before it was full of butt-shaking, sweaty, oversexed young adults dancing to techno (and my favorite, 80's night!) it was a club called Headliners that hosted everyone from U2 to Sonic Youth to The Mighty Mighty Bosstones. The footage from the club we're playing at in this video is the fondly remembered and long-lost O'Cayz Corral and funny enough, the studio we're recording in is Cactus Studios, which was in the basement of the building that now holds O'Cayz' successor, The High Noon Saloon. This year I'm thankful that I no longer sport that goatee (or that wicked gut!) but I'm also thankful for the fact that we've had over a dozen excellent years of writing songs, playing shows, traveling, and generally carrying on in the most ridiculous fashion possible. And we're positively thankful that we've got a lot to be really excited about what we've got in store for 2010.
14. Change The World Old-School Video http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/quicktime, 66.65Mb) Description: I almost forgot we had this one. Wendy's first video editing project was a mash-up of some of our live performances throughout the late 90's set to "Change The World" from our first album, Radio Free Earth. We sent this tape out to booking agents right around the turn of the century and I thought you guys might enjoy a trip down Memory Lane with us. I just got a decent Elgato video capture card, so I'll be going through the VHS collection and putting up "classic" stuff as I find it! I think I have at least 4 different hair colors in this video as well.
15. "More Than My Degree" Pop-Up Video http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/quicktime, 81.46Mb) Description: Here's our version of Pop-Up Video for "More Than My Degree" off the Singularityalbum.
16.

Let us know if you enjoy them and we'll make some more soon

19. No Place Like Home http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/x-mpeg4, 62.37Mb) Description: Everyone wants to escape their small town, everyone thinks they're a fish out of water or a man out of time.

25. Grand Guignol http://sunspotroadmania.blogsp... download (video/x-mpeg4, 57.97Mb) Description: "Grand Guignol" is a hard rock anthem about the people who just have to make a big deal out of everything. Le Theatre du Grand-Guignol was where Parisians used to go to get shocked. They specialized in naturalistic horror plays that were over-dramatized, ridiculous, and over the top. It now comes to mean any gruesome or gory drama or event. We all know at least one person who loves to turn every night into drama night, and this song is for them. You can download the MP4 of the video right here and downl oad the MP3 and check out the lyrics right here.
