Hi

They're doing a EU tour with three dates in the UK. London on the 7th I believe.

Shot them last time and will get along to this one too.

Hi All

Filmed the DD's on their behalf to a sold out show in London on Tues.

Some of you out there will be happy that Amanda breaks part way through the song and gets stuck in a bit of a loop- jerky motion and all.

Video will be used on their website and upcoming DVD.

Along similiar lines a performance troup called Voodoo Vaudville had a segment of the performance last night (also sold out) which was robotic and doll like.

Bonus is seeing little red riding hood in satin outfit being spanked by a wolf.

Damn, can't believe I missed this post originally. Here's a link to the DD's video page ... just scroll down & click:
ttp://www.dresdendolls.com/video/index.htm (with the usual missing "h" s*it)
Note that the "large" video gave my install of QT v7.0.3 the fits, so I'd recommend grabbing the "small" version instead.

It's too bad there's only 1 studio-filmed video on the site, because C.O.B. is really quite good, and shows off much of the creative potential for the group.

Oh, and just so I can offer something new to the discussion, here's how I found out about the C.O.B. video ... through a parody! Behold the wonder of the "Beer-Activated Girl" ... scroll down to get the TV14 version:

(and please tell me what beer tour I need to go on to get one of these!!!)
