You would think filming a song in NYC would be easy as falling off a log but it was actually one of the more challenging shoots. First of all, New York is busy, loud, and there are people everywhere. It’s one thing to play a song for people who are expecting to hear a song but it takes a little extra to just break it down for a group of strangers on the street. Not that this would be odd for New York, but it was hard to do. We got shots in a taxi cab which also seemed like a killer idea at first. But after spending $50 on a cab ride to nowhere and being tossed around like a couple of rag dolls for an hour we decided to move on. Finally my buddy let us into this place and we filmed this on his fire escape in SOHO Manhattan. Its at the end of Mercer St. right on the edge of China town. I think it was just what we were looking for.

This was the last song we had to film to complete all ten songs. At the end of the tour we still didn’t have a good take of every song nor did we feel like we did a great job representing the whole USA. This meant we had to fly to a couple locations. For this one, we flew to Phoenix and drove to Sedona. Once we got to Sedona we pulled onto a dirty road and drove for about an hour. The goal was to basically disappear or drive until we didn’t exist. I wanted to feel alone in the dessert because that’s what I envisioned when i wrote the song. I wanted to feel like I was in the “the valley of the shadow”. Once we got here i realized i forgot my guitar strap. So you see me struggling with the guitar. Nevertheless, it was a fantastic adventure full of red mountains, cacti, and a huge tarantula.
