This video is about the Family Thrift Store in Guelph. I never lived in Guelph, but it’s a town I often visit because it’s where a lot of my friends live, and it’s where my older brother went to University. I remember on one of my first visits a few years back being told I have to visit the Family Thrift Store. I went and thought it was a pretty neat store – heck, I bought a sweet jacket on my first trip! Since then, I made sure to stop by the Thrift Store whenever I visited, so I was pretty bummed out to hear earlier this month that the store would be closing. I heard they were throwing some concerts, so last Friday I made my way to the Royal City to catch one of them. This is my document of that night. I hope you get a sense of how important the Family Thrift Store was to a lot of people.
Note: If you want to see the best quality version of the video, go here, and click on HD, and then make it full-screen. Let it load all the way before viewing it. Trust me, it looks great.
Maybe the best video you’ve ever done, in terms of storytelling. You really should pitch a show to Rogers Channel 10. The New Music used to do segments like this, but now who will?
Alright,
Where’s the HD version?
Nevermind. Looks great in HD. Especially the headshots of Ray. Incredible.
love it all.
