Hey there kids!
Echo Stick Guitars video:A special Jamezboat Blog announcement: *drum roll please* (adopt old-fashioned, deep-voiced Oscars-style cosmopolitan voice-over accent)
"Ladieeeeees aaannnd Gentlemeeeen, would you please welcome to the world of the inter-web, the official VIDEO CLIP for The Boat People's new single..... ECHO STICK GUITARS!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb92IpPn81Q*Crowd goes wild. Applause, cheering, streamers, glitter etc*
So there it is! The video clip for Echo Stick Guitars, for your viewing pleasure! A huge thank-you to Danny and Greg who shot and edited the video and to Zoe, Rom, Jack and Ruby who sourced the costumes and dressed us so well (oh and for dancing for 8 hours on a rock hard floor!).
If you'd like to see a little behind the scenes action from the making of the clip, Robinboat filmed and edited a montage of us all tooling around which is quite entertaining!

Please spend 2 minutes requesting the song here

Facebook:I know some of you out there are not fans of ours on Facebook yet, and you know what? You should be! Facebook is great. Hell, I even made my own Facebook page recently and I said I NEVER would! So please, come join the love. We don't spam the hell out of it, but we do post lots of silly photos of ourselves while recording and touring!
