Jeff: Here’s another video from the MCQ Boulder Fringe Festival; it’s Floyd’s song, and we’ve played it several times, but usually with instruments. For this show, however, we decided to try it acapella. I guess I should explain something: Our shtick for this show was that we are the “Unluckiest Band In The World,” and that every song we put out was immediately eclipsed by a better, more well known song by some other artist. And so we arranged our songs in a chronological order (and changed some of them to fit) so that MCQ played a song from the 1950s, a couple from the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and our last song was a techno jam from the early 21st century. So in last week’s video for “Pirate,” we were dressed like Simon and Garfunkel because that was our 1960s folksy song. This video, as you’ll see, has us as a boy band, which is why we did it acapella. Think ‘NSync meets Backstreet Boys. MCQ Style. If there is such a thing. Enjoy.
