Friday night videos – episode 40

I always look forward to my occasional forays into the music video scene featuring local bands. There’s a lot to choose from, but it’s not always easy unearthing good local tunes on video.

My first song is an example of this. The video is way dark, but the former ‘Why Cook?’ venue in Long Neck was always a little dark. I guess they’ve opened the place up since it was renovated and renamed.

Anyway, I like the song the band Lime Green did there so I included it. It’s called ‘Don’t Tell Me You Love Me’ but it’s not Night Ranger.

They seem to go with a dark room anyway, given their style of music.

Now I’m not sure why this was done in black and white, perhaps the Permilla Project knows. But they added a horn to their jam tune ‘Black Beans and Rice’ to give it a little spice.

They recorded this in downtown Salisbury at Flavors, which has turned out to be another local (and sometimes crowded) music venue.

Down the road, the local cover band Vivid Season was found covering Prince’s tune ‘Let’s Get Crazy.’

Break Time was the venue for that one. And while Vivid Season rocks hard, the guys of Not My Own get real heavy with this one-two combo of ‘Bleed’ and ‘Believer,’ two of their originals recorded at Circles in Milford, Delaware.

Dig the lighting effects.

Now here’s a video which appears to be one of those recorded during practice, where the take was so good someone produced it and put it on Youtube. It’s quite all right, I like LCC any way I can get them!

Whoever ‘The Prince of the Wind’ is, you have a new subscriber.

You may remember these guys from a few years back, but Halflink recently reformed and is back at a venue near you. All I can say about this song is that it typifies Delmarva in many ways, and the full moon must have been out that night.

Let’s call it a wrap after that!
