Motley Crue vinyl toys
I played in a band for many years, a mediocre guitar rock band with a fondness for cliched riffs and a collective guitar case full of unfulfilled dreams. But damn, it was fun.

Oh, yes, to be a fly on their rehearsal room wall.

The video took 22 hours of shooting and some 2,600 pictures to splice together, a small sacrifice to pay for years of happiness together. Right? Right! Oh, and she said yes. Bonus.
