New York State of Mind

Okay, I needed a break and, well, every once in while there is an event in NYC that is just so wonderfully imaginative, that it makes me glad I live here and jealous that I wasn't in that moment. The following was filmed on October 8th on a B train while crossing the Manhattan Bridge. Using only Iphone applications and a speaker, the Brooklyn group Atomic Tom entertained a subway car full of commuters with their soon-to-be hit "Take Me Out" -



They wanted something to happen, so they made it happen. It only cost the price of Iphones, the apps, subway fare, and a month's worth of practice to get it just right. Then 3.5 million hits on YouTube later, they are on their way. Totally cool...

The best part of that video was the hot brunette seated right behind the lead singer. More shots of her and less jangle please.

How goes this "baseball" thing you all are talking about? I take it, it's a sport of some sort?
