Michael Nesmith - Cruisin'
Another classic music video from the pre-MTV era, I guess I first saw this video on Don Kirschner or some other late-night music show. I love how in the olden days the plot of a music video actually followed the song's lyrics. Plus how can you beat a line like "Trying to make connections with their blemish-free complexions"?

Real World Simpson Intro
Someone went through a lot of trouble to very accurately depict the Simpsons intro with real life actors.
Diet Coke and Mentos
Couple of diet coke and mentos experiments. Dropping a bunch of mentos into a 2-liter of diet coke creates an eruption.
Underdog Lady in "The Tootsie Roll Incident"
Underdog Lady takes a brief respite from her battle with Satan Claus so that she can stock up the secret compartment in her cape with treats tossed to the ground by the Tootsie Roll Trolley.
Devo's "Gut Feeling" by Blister Freak Circus
"Gut Feeling" by Blister Freak Circus from Atomic Books' "Q: Are We Not Kiss? A: We Are Devo!" Memory Lane, early 1990's Peruse the City Paper nightclub listings and you are likely to find a plethora of hipster-ironic musical mash-ups with clever names like "Johnny Clash's Planet of the Apes 80's Flashback" or "The White Strokes versus Wu Tang & Wang Chung." But in the early days of Baltimore hipsterdom this was not the case. That is until the tax man came knocking at Atomic Books' door. A $5,000 tax bill loomed large. How was Huffines to pay? A book sale? Although during the 90's Baltimore was referred to as "The City That Reads," the fact was, no one read. Of course they occasionally bought books -- but only to decorate their living spaces with. What was he to do? Suddenly a light bulb appeared above Huffines' head, a 150-watt illuminated marquee scrolling a message: "Put on a show, Little Rascals style!" And since Kiss and Devo were his favorite bands he decided: What better way to beg for money than to force feed the grunge-loving public the music of his youth? And thus was born: "Q: Are We Not Kiss? A: We Are Devo!" The show was a rollicking success, even garnering a coveted City Paper "Best Of" award. Huffines and Warner videotaped the event, utilizing antique VHS cameras the size and weight of cinderblocks. They stored the tapes away never knowing that they were Atomic TV's legacy, their Dead Sea Scrolls, their Book of Genesis. Many years passed. And so these tapes sat, deep in the Atomic TV archives until one day the spectre of unemployment revisited Scott Huffines and gave him time. Time to panic and time to worry about his future. But eventually he grew bored and nostalgic, as men in their 40's often do, and he used this time to review hundreds of unlabeled videos, trying to make sense of his past. He is still confused. Sit back and enjoy one of Atomic TV's earliest clips, our own "Cavern Club" footage.
National Bohemian "Draw Me A Beer" Commercial
Another classic National Bohemian ad from the Atomic TV archives. Question: Who voices the characters and what other cartoon characters did he voice?
The Avalanches "Frontier Psychiatrist", dir. Kuntz&Maguire

Crispin Glover: "Clowny Clown Clown"
From Atomic TV Volume 6: "Scott's Obsessions": I've had a quite unhealthy obsession with Crispin Hellion Glover ever since his appearance as knit-cap-wearing Layne in "River's Edge." Rumor has it that in post-production they had to go back and film additonal scenes with Glover popping pills and falling asleep at traffic lights in order for movie-goers to make sense of his quirky character. The Glover-obsession clincher was when I saw the "I'm strong... I can kick..." David Letterman appearance and from that point on I was a fan for life. When I opened my store, Atomic Books, I contacted Volcanic Eruptions (his mom) so that Crispin's book "Rat Catching" would be one of the first books I could proudly display on my counter. Counter. Prominently displayed. Not hidden spine-in on a bookshelf. A few years later I went to Washington D.C. to see a workprint of his retard-and-naked-palsy-man film "What Is It?" along with his "Big Slide Show" presentation. Utterly amazing. And as the years have passed Glover has continued to take on quirky roles without ever cheezing out, even in "Charlie's Angels" he played a weirdo. Perhaps his most mainstream role was in "Where the Heart Is?" but Uma Thurman was in that movie, and she was nekkid, so I gotta still cut him some slack. Crispin Glover has remained my hero for almost 20 years, and when I met him he wasn't a dick, which gives him even more bonus points. A true gentleman.
Atomic TV Meets Grape Ape
From Atomic TV Volume One: Meet Grape Ape, a hippie burnout who survived an atomic blast to become the Magilla Gorilla of rock and roll and Spokesperson for a Lost Generation, as he expounds on Led Zeppelin and proves that rust never sleeps, it creeps...
