O.K. KSA is in the new Kevin Smith movie. And it’s the first single off the soundtrack and our album. So we were lucky enough to get Kevin and Jason Mewes, who is “Jay”, to be in the video. So we got this director by the name of Gregory Dark to do it. The hot rumor is that he used to be a big porno director, and now he does videos. He did some Sublime, he did Mudshovel, and the new Cult, and Mandy Moore (pure evil), and Shitney Spears “From the Bottom of My Broken Heart” which is possibly the worst song ever, but the video looked good and Gregory has nothing to do with what a terrible song it is. Gregory is cool. So we got this guy Gregory, and once I got over the weirdness of meeting someone with my name, which is always strange, we got down to making the video.

And it’s funny. Jay and Silent Bob do a bunch of funny shit, I’ll save the story, and we pretend we’re playing live. We filmed it on this street in Paterson, N.J. (the dudes are from New Jersey, and all the movies are set there), so people were rolling by and we were jumping around in the street, air-guitaring and whatnot. And then around 5 everyone got home from work and came out to stand around and watch the filming. So we had this big crowd watching us, and all the cops around, and the cameras, and dudes rolling by on motorcycles, and hootchie-mamas shakin’ it, and let’s just say it doesn’t look anything like the Train video. So we do all that, and then we have Jay and Silent Bob come up on us playing, and there are some funny bits they do. A huge thank you to those guys, for using the song in the movie, and doing the video with us, and Jason Mewes is a very funny dude. Kevin Smith, you are a cool motherfucker.

And it was great. It was a fun day, and it’s going to look bitchin’. So now I’m going to ask Alex if there is a way we can put the links for all the video channels so we can all start requesting it. I’m going to throw some extra memory in my computer so I can run a bunch of browsers at the same time, and hit ‘em all.
