Keep on Skankin' boys and girls!

This was possibly the best job I've ever had: One of my favorite bands, favorite venue and one of my favorite songs! Aha's "Take on Me" as interpreted by Reel Big Fish. I am stoked that I got to work on these videos together with #ReelBigFish and rockvideos.at, one of the greatest (and silliest) ska bands of all time. We produced these videos free of charge a couple of years back and I think they need a place on @dtube too so I'll be releasing some of the best ones for you guys. Remember, the music belongs to their original owners. :)

Yours truly was working camera that fateful evening on the 18th of March 2013 (we had 7 cameras in total), I also did all of the editing and post-production on these. A couple of years on and these still hold up pretty well. True professionals and gentlemen these guys were! What a blast!

Lyrics
We're talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay?

Take on me, (take on me)
Take me on, (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me, (take on me)
Take me on, (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Oh the things that you say
Is it live or
Just to…

About the Venue:

„ARENA“
The Arena is Austria's largest centre for alternative culture and communications. Located in a suitable f+cked up refurbished slaughterhouse, this punk rock mecca is one of the best venues worldwide for non main-stream rock, metal and alternative music. The purpose of the organisation which is non-profit oriented is the support, development and realisation of Cultural, Youth and Communication centres a long with modern social and cultural work.

For over 30 years Arena has provided a home and ample amplifiers to legions of musicians, rockers and music lovers the world over. Several halls and venues within can host several concerts at the same time. There is a big open air stage for the warmer seasons and during the summer you often have themed festivals that encompass the entire compound. It is a testament to rebellion against all authority and we are lucky to have such a place.Leonard Cohen once called it "The best place in Vienna", perhaps worth checking out on that recommendation!
