YouTube Is A Vortex, And Will Swallow The World Whole

The internet has officially made it impossible for anything to die.  Doing some research this morning about some different angles we’re working on for the film, i ventured on to YouTube, and as any self respecting music nerd would tell you, as soon as you type the words into the browser, you’re pretty much done.  Don’t plan on working out, getting the dishes done, or anything else productive, because 2 hours later, you’ve seen every video and concert clip you ever knew existed from The Smithereens.  Or you’ve discovered that yes, you DO love Rod Stewart.  Well, two hours ago i set out to find a clip of The Allman Brothers, which led to a clip of them in Athens, which led to a clip of Widespread Panic, which led to a clip of love Tractor, which led to a clip of REM, and before I knew it, it was two hours gone, and i still hadn’t seen what I came for.  Damned internet.  So I’ll just leave you with some of the goodies that i found, including a clip from the original Athens music documentary, from 1986, Athens, GA Inside/Out……enjoy.
