We've all gotten used to the fact that MTV no longer delights us with original, catchy music videos. Gone are the days of flipping on the tube and being entertained with both visual and auditory sensation that actually has class and creativity.

But, musicians are evolving creatures, and lucky for us, musicians now have the means to make their own videos and post for all to see via the godsend Youtube.

Tacoma band Strangely Alright is jumping on the bandwagon (pun not intended, but lovely nonetheless) and is calling for Puget Sounders to join in their creative vision of making a music video.

The band, who recently signed to Maurice the Fish Records, and released a hot-seller debut album, The Time Machine is Broken, will be shooting a video for their song, "If I Don't Laugh I'm Only Going To Cry" at Tacoma's antique store Rampart Sept 14. The band requests folks to come in costume and have a good time. There aren't any criteria for costume; coming as you is cool by the band.
