Aa (BIG A little a) -"Fingers to Fist" by Lev + Whitney


First of two videos by Lev + Whitney for Aa's (BIG A little a) upcoming album and dvd. For those unfamiliar with Aa, Thurston Moore says they make "the kindsa sounds that young people should be making and enjoying in bistros from here to Kalamazoo".

"Back in July when we posted the Fingers 2 Fist video to Antville, we got accused of ripping off the concept and it really bugged us. I mean, of course we did steal the idea, but not from some Random — from Lev’s friend Suzanne!"

never said they stole, but: hi suzanne. (Who she? Ed.)

they also 'fess up to more, erm... inspiration regarding another video for Aa's Manshake:
"So this time we’re letting ya know: We stole Manshake from Truffaut’s Wild Child. Pretty much the whole thing."
the video's just up on the directors' site:

Well,
The borked problems are over now. We spent this weekend switching hosting providers from GoDaddy -- which was way unreliable -- to 1and1.
So far so good with them. And their tech-support-hold-music is better. (Smashing Pumpkins!)
