    "It'd be cool if you could just do what you can to keep me on the road, you know, man? For the band? For the band? For the band?"

    Nice Peep Show-inspired music.
  • Matt J 1 year ago
    That was my first thought. And the first two scenes are shot POV style like Peep Show too.
  • lonelysandwich 1 year ago
    Not even inspired, Katie. Taken, more like. Nice Peep Show-taken music.

    …and now all 5min, dialogue based videos on the internet must be mixed with musak playing at a mid to high level.

    — By order of wanna-be-hip-to-the-in-crowd-magistrate.

    So what's etiquette and play here? Cute bartender and cute girl at the bar both gave you a look. Girl sitting at the bar was all alone and less busy, but bartender has a potential inner nerd factor. Do you double your odds and talk to them both again? Or does that risk one girl seeing you talk to the other and having it all fall apart?
  • lonelysandwich 1 year ago
    I don't think the bartender was flirting. But I suck at reading these cues.

    Kiss em all and let God sort it out.

    They just won't let us use capitalization to indicate emotional content. For instance, I'm singing this reply to the tune of Carmina Burana.
  • Paul Yonna plus 1 year ago
    and I'm listening in the tune of "My Way" and getting crossed signals....loved the film....

    Cool idea. Is the video a deliberate homage to Peepshow from the UK? Notice it's the same theme music and concept of using first person perspective to tell the story. Very nicely done.
  • lonelysandwich 1 year ago
    Thank you, and yes. Not at first, it wasn't an homage. More of an unintentional ripoff, then a tribute, THEN an homage. And back to ripoff.
  • Eliot Landrum 1 year ago
    I love that there's so many Peep Show viewers here.

    Beautiful little film, Adam. Now I want the book! (And I want Peep Show to return!)
