EEEEEEEEEK!!!!! YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE WICKED WEEKEND I'VE HAD!!!!!!! It all started on Thursday when I was at Jamie's house and we were really bored. His computer was going slow so I suggested deleting The Sims 'cause the disks don't actually work. So as we deleted that HUGE file I noticed Movie Maker and Jamie didn't realised that he had it. So when we checked it out we realised it was the same one that Zed had (That we used to make Most Spooked 1+2 .. www.zeds-place.co.uk/MS2) We decided to make a music video.
The song we chose was Rohypnol by The Zico Chain (www.myspace.com/thezicochain) as we had a couple of pictures of them from the gig, and some pictures off of Myspace and google. Then we filmed some random shots of me, Jamie and Jamie's little brother Joe jumping around and being crazy. But we discovered we didn't have enough shots to fill the song so the next day Jamie took his camera to school and we grabbed people as they walked by and told them to dance or jump into a wall (namely, Nicky, Tasha, Joel, Rob, Kim, Kirmy, Lewis..etc) Then yesterday we edited those in and finished.
So when we'd finished the video we sat and thought.. "Now what?" So we decided to upload it to a video hosting site and send it to The Zico Chain! Well, we weren't expecting anything but 20 minutes later when we checked the site we found this message:
hey guys!!

By then I was jumping around Jamie's moms room squealing with delight. It was awesome!! Ollie liked it! We were really excited for when he showed Paul and Chris! A couple of hours later we received this:

Me and Jamie were like: O_O PUT OUR VIDEO UP ON MYSPACE?!! OKAYYY!!! *Jump around* Wait, what's that? PASSES FOR ANY OF THEIR GIGS!!!!!!! *Jumps around some more* WAIT!!!... Isn't the tour they're doing now.. With.. Alkaline Trio?!?! AAAAAAHHHH!! *Jumps around EVEN MORE!*
Although i'm not sure if we can go to this tour. We might be able to go to the Coventry one but I don't know. The easiest one would be the Derby show, but that's on the 11th and that's the day I go see Placebo ^^.
By now we were reeling! It's like.. Wow omg omg I can't believe The Zico Chain like our video! *teeniebopperesque* Then later on we received this:
Hi Paul here

thanks, ha bet it'll better than our single video!

all the best
Paul Zico
