I was actually looking for a vid of Headphones, the synth project of Bazan and Soft Drugs’ T.Walsh, though I think Tim kind of accidentally got booted off the project. But nothing really exists, except for a practice video and a little bit of not-so-great concert footage. Basically, Bazan behind a keyboard is just not as appealing–his charisma fades to black a bit. He doesn’t look like a keyboard player, he looks like a grizzly bear out of Glacier National Park or something, and he belongs with a guitar–an “organic” instrument, not this hyped electrical thing.
But here’s “Harmless Sparks/Fewer Broken Pieces”–the video is mislabeled. It’s at Sweetbriar College in Feb. 2007, with pretty good video editing.
