Hippy Mosh Pit with Captain Paradox
It's been a few years since I've played any music. This video is part of the second to last gig of the last band that I was in. The band was Captain Paradox and I played bass. We were disbanding because our singer/songwriter/guitarist was moving out of town, and on Jan 12, 2002 we booked two gigs to go out with a bang. The first gig of the evening was at a restaurant called Cada Vez where they were holding a holiday party for the DC activist crowd. As you could probably guess, this was a hippy fest. We had a limited time frame to play because we had to go down the street for our late show at the Velvet Lounge and we were starting to get a little worried that we weren't going to be able to play a full set because of this troupe of teenage interprative dancers that went on before us. While we weren't our tightest during this set (but it was good practice for our second gig where we really went out with a bang), the audience loved us and Sarah, AKA Mrs. Paradox, shot some great video of us with some wacky audience members dancing and then doing some hippied out version of moshing in front of us.
