♪♪ We are at the Gateway Arch today.
We're going to give you a little behind the scenes video of us shooting our music video down at the Gateway Arch about our song called "The Gateway Arch."
Gateway Arch, Gateway Arch, going to the top of the Gateway Arch.
Gateway Arch, Gateway Arch, it's my fate to see the Gateway Arch.
So we usually do our own music videos using our iPhones, but since we sold all our POGs and our Magic the Gathering cards, we've been able to make this fancy new video with a whole new top-notch crew.
Check this out.
I'm going to show them to you now.
We are getting our money's worth today.
We are the official songwriters for St.
Louis theme songs.
We got the arch, dominant, distinctive.
Mississippi River never looked so pretty.
Sweet, hot, hot dogs.
Bingo.
Sunshine daydream, it's what I need.
Sunshine daydream, I'm on the beat.
BeatleBob, BeatleBob, your work is in done.
He's a lobster, he ain't no mobster.
Lord Stanley.
That's better.
Dave and I go all the way back to high school where we started writing music together.
He taught me how to play the acoustic guitar.
He taught me how to play bass, kind of.
He wrote a song in a show that you guys might know called "Over the Garden Wall."
"Potatoes and Molasses."
That's right, "Potatoes and Molasses."
That's Dave's song.
Nobody in St.
Louis knows that, so I'm telling you now.
- Then Justin went to LA, he worked with Lady Gaga, Snoop Doggy Dog, Lady Gaga ate his snacks.
- And I got some Grammy credits on the Anderson .Paak album Ventura.
- Oh, I didn't know that, that's cool.
(laughing) Anyway, now we're back together.
Since 2018, we've been writing music, making videos, making content, all this stuff you gotta do online to stay, you know, in the thing of the internet.
It's a lot easier than playing because we're old now.
Gateway to the west, that's what they say.
All the river boats float across the way.
Muddy Mississippi's where it lays.
It's like a gate, so it's called a gateway.
Gateway arch goes up and down.
You sit in a A and you flip around.
Once to the top, you can see your house.
Running around like I'm a church mouse.
My wife knows everything and she told me that Steve Templeton has the keys to the arch and comes in here on the weekends and dials it to affect the weather in the St.
Louis metro region.
That's why they always get it right now!
So our music video is coming out on March 14th.
It's going to be up on our YouTube channel.
That's youtube.com/elektrodinosaur with a K. We also do like a live show every other Thursday or whenever we have time to.
Yeah, we try to do it twice a month.
We do live streams on YouTube.
You can see us in between 11 and 1 p.m.
at either Clayton Studios or Lindenwood University in the practice rooms or in the studio there.
Groovy.
May your raviolis always be toasted.
And your highways always be forty.
Happy 314 Day, guys!
Yay!
Oh, I said guys.
