"Atomic Tom" had their instruments stolen... so...

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

"Atomic Tom" had their instruments stolen... so...

Post by CoolBreeze »

This video was filmed unannounced on Friday October 8, 2010 aboard the New York City B Train, over the Manhattan Bridge into Brooklyn and edited from 3 iPhone cameras. All footage is performed 100% live and executed in one take.

My first thoughts were:

1. Who'd they pay to "steal" the instruments?
2. This would be the greatest rock and roll video of any kind, ever, if they were even the least bit good in the first place...

I'm assuming that they are telling the truth.

Whether or not it's a bad song, it's neat they "replaced" all of their instruments with iPhones.

I found the studio version of this song the other day.

It's pretty good.
