It probably seems obvious, but it's a lot more fun to shoot these live, one-take videos on the 2012 Love Drunk Tour when the song rocks. Hauling gear up three flights of old wooden stairs to a Boston attic decorated by the children of children of flower people, we find this on Day 7 with pop-rockers Pretty & Nice.
Love Drunk director Django G-S says he wanted to shoot this band on the first tour, last year, but they were out of town when we swung through their city. No matter. We got them this time, and their new song, "Yonkers," a catchy rocker that made the band, the shooters and Snack Attack move.
Six Love Drunk videographers are on tour shooting live, one-take videos with bands across the eastern part of the U.S., spreading the word about Nebraska music along the way. This was day six of 17-day tour. Learn more about the project and the tour here. Watch all the videos here.
Special thanks to this year's tour sponsors, Proxibid and Havana Garage, whose generous support is paying for much of the travel costs. Please support these Omaha businesses.
