Something about this video just does it for me. Maybe because it reminds me of when I made a three-string dulcimer at summer camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and then I walked around the house all year, going “plunk plink plonk” on it, trying to playing Minutemen songs on it?

And also, is the guy very pumped to play “This Land Is Your Land?” Is he pretty sad about it? And at 0:31, is he really, really sad? And does he wail on that final chord very hard? And, yeah, just one last time to reiterate, at 1:35, is he wailing very hard when you look at his facial expression?

And also, is his hoodie yellow enough? Hmm … can’t tell if his hoodie is holding shit down very hard.

FRIDAY FACE-OFFS! Winning video is next!

He wants you to feel it. (Especially around 2:00.) Do you feel it?

2,000 guitarists playing “This Land is Your Land” simultaneously.

I can’t tell if this is the corniest musical moment of all time, or the most avant-garde.

One thing I do know, though: When Country Joe McDonald says, “One more time!” it means “Twenty more times.”

PATRIOTIC CONCH SHELL ACTIVATE

Tom Morello is the medicine, Anti-Flag is the spoonful of sugar.

One thing we love about living in our town is seeing Pete Seeger running around in his crazy hats and floppy sweaters.

But this guy is bringing a serious sweater style to the game — he’s putting 90-Cent on notice!

LOL, this video makes me pretty sad. YEAH RIGHT LET’S DO THIS–

From a concert that was going on the same night as the Seeger MSG show — Sharon Jones tears up that ribbon of highway. Things get set off at around 2:00.

Welcome to the Pete Seeger Birthday Edition of FRIDAY FACE-OFFS.

Could there be any doubt about this week’s song? It’s “My Humps,” by the Black Eyed Peas.

Just kidding, it’s “This Land is Your Land,” by Woody Guthrie.

Let’s do this!

FORGET ABOUT IT. It’s been a while since a FFO video put everyone on notice as hard as these guys do. LOL, am I loving these guys very much? Reincarnated D. Boon and Mike Watt holding it down very hard? KILLED IT!!!

Have a great weekend.

This is it, last chance to donate to the laptop fund:

THANK YOU

Why is it my favorite thing on earth, to watch people get into their music?

From the user’s video description:

“I wasn’t really singing it, more like listening, but…..it’s not like everybody else’s.”

GO FOR IT.

I don’t even know what genre of youtube video this is. It’s kind of a sing-along, but like the guy says, it’s mostly just him listening to the song and getting overwhelmed by how much he loves it (LOL, like at 0:53, he’s really hating it) with words floating around intermittently. Why isn’t this in the Whitney’s permanent collection of awesome videos that Matthew Barney didn’t make? “This is the reallest shit ever, especially the first part.”

Also, do any of the ladies in the comments section to this video want the guy to hit ’em up with his info very much?

By the way, this week’s FRIDAY FACE-OFFS has officially been CHOPPED N SKREWED, because we have a runner-up 2nd place this week:

Yes, that’s a Yamaha DX-7 in FULL EFFECT. With Christmas lights on it to set the mood while he goes off on CHOPPED N SKREWED. (Also, Miami Dolphins jacket, or am I imagining things?)

And because I’m chopping and screwing everything right now, let’s drop another 2nd Place runner-up video:

Yes, that’s a violin in FULL EFFECT. Let’s not even get into the insane blast of bewildered ecstasy I felt when I thought the violinist was MARLO STANFIELD.

FRIDAY FACE-OFFS! Winning video is next!

THANKS
