Video Shoot for "Where's My Parade"




Months of planning for the video came down to today. At 10am we lined up in downtown Lake Worth for the Parade.   A 16' flatbed truck served as our rolling stage. We sound checked, got the girls drunk, made up, outfits on, and brought the heat.  There was the 4 of us in the band, Lisa and Amanda singing backups and Mandy, Rebecca and Allie starring as the high society ladies gone wrong..... or right depending on how you see it.  The gay community & friends loved us!  Good to know in case I need to seek refuge.  Kenny 5 and crew filmed the band/ crowd through the entire parade route, Monica Kustra took the photos, Marc Ward provided the generator and Kevin and Justin manned the truck.  
After the Parade, we took the caravan to the Gstar School of the Arts movie lot.    Susan, Jenette, Alex, and Kyle were there setting up for the next phase.   Alex came through with some great party favors ie: flags, silly string, pom poms, balloons, etc.. Family and friends (old and new) and a 6' rabbit showed up to help recreate the parade.   We played the song over and over... and over so Kenny could get the footage he needed.   The shoot was a success.  Thanks to everyone involved!  

Now, we wait for the editing....
Next weekend we head up the Gulf Coast to play 3 shows in Sandestin and St. Petersburg. See ya.
