Why Nerds Shouldn't Join Bands: All Around Losing (Episode 1)

We pulled our most awkward editor away from his computer and threw him into an experimental electronic band. The results were priceless. -- In the inaugural episode of All Around Losing, Harry gets sprayed with moth poop, swallows glowing balls, and dresses in chainmail—all in a misguided effort to become a rock star. His dreams of becoming a guitar god are doomed from the start, as he doesn't know how to play an instrument, so he meets up with some old art school friends who offer him the chance to join their electronica band, US™. Soon, Harry is waving a wand around his body to create ambient white noise while the rest of the band wails away on pedals, guitars, and drum machines. He never quite seems to know what's going on, but that's fine, as neither does the audience. -- Follow Harry on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/HCheadle Check out the Best of VICE playlist here: http://bit.ly/VICE-Best-Of Follow Genevieve Belleveau on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/gorgeousTaps Follow Brian Seneca Carroll on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/whateverr21 And check out his Soundcloud, Mind Dynamics: http://soundcloud.com/mind-dynamics Check out Wadih Sader's new album: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/actions-ep-2011-edition-ep/id519368478 3egg studios: http://www.3eggstudios.com/ La Sala at Cantina Royal: http://cantinaroyal.com/lasala/index.php Peach Frog: http://peachfrog.com/ Main Drag Music: http://www.maindragmusic.com/madness/ -- Subscribe for videos that are actually good: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE Check out our full video catalog: http://www.youtube.com/user/vice/videos Videos, daily editorial and more: http://vice.com Like VICE on Facebook: http://fb.com/vice Follow VICE on Twitter: http://twitter.com/vice Read our tumblr: http://vicemag.tumblr.com
