Here are 3 videos of the show me and Jens did at Sound of Mu.
All was improvised, and made up as we went along. The sound is a bit crap, as the camera is below the speakers, but it was fun… if not partcularly groundbreaking or together…
Heres a little improv I did at exactly 11:00.00 on 11,11,11
Rare footage of Uncle Ian at the Hornpipe. Check out my HUGE hair!

Weirdly, this video is the reason I joined Cranes.
An on the road documentary, or rockumentary if you will of one of the hardest working rock band of our time… Spinal Tap.. I mean “The Cranes”
I shot this during the short tour of Holland in 1991. It was kind of a warm-up tour for the big show at the Paradiso, which was recorded on a 24 track mobile and filmed for MTV. I then edited the gig footage that the TV company shot, and later put this together with Nick out of all my VHS and Super 8 stuff.
My god it was 20 years ago!
