The Legend Of The Seeker-The Grand Illusion

 

     I love Styx's music especially the song 'The Grand Illusion'. The song seemed to go great with 'The Legend Of The Seeker' so I used it for this video.

The Rat Patrol-All Jacked Up

 

     This is one of the first music videos I made. When I made it I couldn't help but think from the clips I had from the TV series that the Rat Patrol looked all jacked up and ready to go so I use the song 'All Jacked Up' by Gretchen Wilson.

     On June 26, 1973, Gretchen was born to a 16 year old mother in Pocahontas, Illinois. Before Gretchen was 2, her father left her mother. Her mother and her lived in trailer parks and relative poverty. Gretchen's mother was a waitress. When Gretchen was in the ninth grade, she dropped out of school, working as a cook and bartender.
     At the age of 17, Gretchen started singing in small bars around St. Louis, Missouri. In 1991, Susie Osburn, a bar manager from Springfield, Missouri, went to St. Louis, looking for a new band for her bar (Townhouse). Susie stumbled upon Gretchen, offering Gretchen the job. Gretchen played at the Townhouse for two years then moved back to Pocahontas. After a failed marriage to former bandmate, Larry Rolens, Gretchen moved to Nashville.
     Gretchen started dating Mike Penner. On November 9, 2001, a daughter, Grace Frances Penner, was born to them.
