La Capitan of El Kapitan - Episode 1

Here is the first video in a series about my latest travel vessel.  El Kapitan II.  Starting with an 12 year old luxury conversion van I have been working to create the ultimate travel / camping vehicle.  There is some light humor involved as I found an app on my iPhone that allows me to do video editing and there are no special effects.  I have added so many features to El Kapitan I will have to make a series to document them.

El Kapitan is a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 with a 360 V8.  It has been my project vehicle for a few months now. 

Some of the newest features include:

• CB Radio
• Accent lighting
• Boom boom speakers
• Sink
• Amplifier
• Cosmetic changes
• Black out curtains
• and of course many other switches and toys.

 The music to the video was performed by Gordon Rowland at Guitarwork.com.  Stay tuned for the sequel.

 

Newest Song for my Playlist

 

I recently started playing Borderlands on the Xbox 360 and I was pleasantly surprised by the video intro featuring this song.  I cannot believe I have never heard this song before, but I have found it now.  This video is an awesome example of Rock and Roll comedy!  Although the video has a serious note, and the humor is within the irony. Like the pot calling the kettle black we find passing judgement hilariously ironic. 

 

“The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.” 
― Bob Marley

 

YEA! 

A song I keep repeating. Coldplay makes a song on my zen music playlist.

This song is awesome!  One of those songs to listen to on the beach, or anywhere that isn't paradise.  I first listened to this song, loved it,  then found the video.  I dont understand the elephant costume,  and since the song is about a girl I thought the elephant was a girl elephant.  Then at the end when  the elephant pulls off it's own head - it is not only a guy, its a member of Coldplay!! It ends happily when the elephant finds a bunch of really cool elephants out in the desert that play instruments and dance.  

UPDATE 05/05/12 

It seems my video link was broken for some reason.  Apparently that video stream got deleted.  I have moved on to a more rock and roll playlist for now, but this song is great sometimes!
