Post subject:	Fan Video Idea
Hello my fellow Busters, Over the past month I took part in the creation of a fan "documentary" celebrating a metal band I listen to. Via a Facebook group, we invited fans to submit webcam (or any other device recordings) footage that contained answers to certain generic questions (what's your favorite song, how'd you come to discover the band, any other poignant anecdotes). We created a narrative with the footage and we're going to present it to the band, who is very active on social media. Please don't share since it's not 100% finished, but you can see the final draft, sans credits, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmah9EwOAcg This project got me thinking that we could craft something similar for our favorite little band from Japan and present it on the pillows' social profiles next year for the 25th anniversary. Is there any preliminary interest in tackling a fan "documentary" out there? Could be neat if we garner a hefty amount of international entries to illustrate the scope of the band's reach over 25 years. -Chris

That's a really cool idea. It's unfortunate that it's around the time the major fervor over the pillows has died down (outside of Japan), but 25 years is a great milestone. The pillows have been a huge band for all of us.

Sounds like a great idea to me.

[quote="ladybirdgirl"]any other poignant anecdotes[/quote] Prepare for a deluge of shit like this: [i]Unkempt fan with alcoholic beverage in hand, wearing a FLCL T-shirt that's two sizes too small[/i] "Yeah, I knew about [i]za pirouzu[/i] before Furi Kuri came out. I'm a real fan, not like all of those idiots on Instant Music or whatever. And I tell you what, every album since Kool Spice has sounded like Sawao gargling cock. The first time I heard Yellow Beans, I had an orgasm. If you don't like Yellow Beans, you aren't a true fan. And even then, you don't like it as much as I do. Takes swig of booze So, let me tell you about this one time I wrote some smut about Sawao and Manabe-kun..." "Come back to us, Kashima-sama." "Kool Spice wouldn't have been shit if it hadn't been for Konno's congas. You know why OOPARTS sounded like piss? No fuckin' congas." "Yeah, I remember the pillows. They were pretty cool when I was, like, 12. Shame they suck so much ass these days. Ride on Shooting Star was pretty cool, I guess." But more seriously, I think this is a cool idea. If you decide to go forward with this, I imagine most of us would love to participate.

Not to be a fuckface, and feel free to just tell me to shut up, but perhaps we should just do it with the members of this board to avoid stuff like that? It'd not only serve that purpose, but also show them the views of those who don't just love the FLCL stuff.

I kind of agree with MyFoot on privatizing the documentary to just prominent IM members. I feel like we would have a much higher quality response than the average "Oh shit! The pillows are fucking awesome!!! I love hybrid rainbow! best song in the world man! Japan rulez!"

I still feel we need to meet in the geographic center of the continental United States and have a big pillows fan meet. Sooo much jamming and nerding out.

I posted the video on my facebook and reuploaded it on my youtube for my fans and friends to see. Some like it. They say it kind of lacks things. I dunno. Either way, wasn't mare doing a stupid report on the pillows like 5 years ago? What the hell, man?

If anything, it's too long, but that was a consequence of my associates wanting a longer piece.

Also, I'm glad there is interest. I'd really like to put something together in this fashion. Perhaps we can start brainstorming on questions? Lastly, I still feel compelled to advertise it on the pillows FB page. I hear you guys on the practicality of keeping it private to us, and granted we'll drive the content with our high quality submissions, but I want to make this a worldwide thing. International submissions will show off the scope of the fanbase (similar to what we did with this MaSu vid). In the end, it's up to us (me) to edit in the best stuff. There will inevitably be some generic fan love, but I have the power to include the most poignant content - which will no doubt be generated from people like us.

I'd say favorite song/album would be good. Maybe sharing stories from live shows that y'all have attended? Talking about how our lives have changed since discovering the pillows' might make for interesting segments as well. If there aren't at least a few bat-shit crazy entries, I'll be super disappointed. "My favorite pillows song? That's tough. I'd say it's a toss-up between Toumei Shoujo, Haruka Kanata and that Seishun Kyousouwhatever song they did for Naruto."
