St. John's singer Colleen Power has had some fun making videos with her film-making partner Roger Maunder; New Townie Man was a flat-out viral hit, and I liked the Nfld-country hurtin' tune, Dead Bird in the Garbage.
Just out this week: Sketchy Jerome, about a young woman on the hunt for some marijuana, and having to resort to a visit to the home of said Jerome. As played by comedian Donny Love, he's the sort of guy who works disco pants and answers the door with a baseball bat.
A couple of trivia notes. For instance, people who've bought the "Free Nfld" stickers, T-shirts, etc., over the years can spot the logo's creator Wallace Ryan sitting right next to it in Jerome's living room. Lots of other cameos to be seen, as well, from former union leader Leo Puddister to Maunder himself playing Stan, the boyfriend in the car.
An advisory: because of subject and language, this video is probably not safe for work, nor around the kids.
