The California Dirtblog is proud to present the second instalment of The Gorillaz Cometh, a musical rendering of video footage collected by myself or my son Carlo. All the production is done by me on my computer at home. The climbers featured in the video are Mitchell Boreing, Max Chandler, Cody Henderson, Carlo Rivas, Jay Rogers, Dave Stillman and of course myself.
The music for this climbing cinimagraphic explosion is a self titled anthem by the Oxnard punk band Clinched Fists. The song was recorded in 1996 at the Living Room in Santa Barbara by John Lyons and Joe Rivas(my brother). Pre and post-production by Joe and Clinched Fists.
The boys and I had a very busy year filled with fun, adventure and fellowship. We visited the Eastern Sierra, the California High Desert, Kings Canyon National Park and of course we romped all over the Los Padres National Forest(our backyard). I spent around 50 nights this year sleeping on the ground, put a few thousand miles on The Endurance and and climbed more than I've ever climbed and I did all of it with either my son Carlo and his Gorillaz, or my number one dirtdog Dave Stillman(aka Crash Fistfight).
Ok so here is video number two. Enjoy!
