"Sunday Gulls" BOC vid

Heres a BOC vid I put together...just got a camera so finally I can shoot all the ideas that have been brewing in my head.... start simple first, get something working quickly....

I should note that if there is a copyright issue with posting the vid using the BOC track then either I can compress the audio so it isn't worth ripping or pull the vid. also if there is a proper name for the song let me know....

Nice video, man! I do love oceans and bays and whatnot. A great place for BOC.

I myself am from Oregon. Not entirely to far away.

I used to live at the beach for a couple years. It's awfully neat. Very mysterious. I find it funny how deserted a coastal town can get in the dead of night.

One of these days I'd like to move back... or perhaps the east coast. Maine or something. Work on a dock, grow a big beard and live in a cabin on a cliff overlooking the ocean. On the weekends, when it's stormy and dark, I'd journey to the local tavern and listen to the crazy sailor tell spooky stories about ghost ships and what have you.

Anyway, do make more BOC vids! Good stuff!

lovely, i remember reading that mad book, johnathon livingston seagull, i read it as a youngster given it yb my mum, obviously didnt realise what it was about, just that the story was lovely, this video reminded me of that.

Love the rawness of the filming and fits the music so well,
