    Ahem...to a director, this so sounds like a challenge.

    I think I've just figured out what my test project will be when my videographer roomie begins training me on Final Cut Pro in January... Some stock footage of Glenn making the sex face, perhaps some new shots of the "lonely girl", and some creative editing...!

    Seriously, this TOTALLY would've been a hot video. No fair Glenn!

    (P.S. I am still alive, I swear, I'm just never online!!!)

    Well Bree - good luck with making a video of the Allnighter. I actually have created my own personal little video visuals of the Allnighter that I play over and over again in my little head.

    As far as no video for Heartache Tonight, I forgot to comment on that earlier. I can guess a couple of reasons for not making one. One thing is that in the late '70's, MTV was in its infancy, and I don't think VH1 even existed yet, so videos were just beginning to catch on. The original intent may have been not to do any videos from The Long Run, but they later decided they needed to since MTV was becoming so popular. I also remember that in the beginning, artists would only do a video of one song on an album, and often times it wasn't the biggest hits. I don't know if this is what happened with The Long Run or not, but it would be a great question for someone to ask Glenn in an interview.

    Interesting, Kay. Maybe HT was already a hit, and they figured the other two needed more promotion.

    Yah see...the problem wouldn't be making the video, not at all. It'd be keeping it clean!!!

    Much as I like The Allnighter I'd like to see videos of a couple of songs which were never performed live - I refer to my old favourites Let's Go Home and A Walk In The Dark. The mind boggles.

    Good grief - I'd give my eye teeth to see him do I've Got Mine and River of Dreams live. I know he's done these live - but not when I was there.

    I may have said this before but the only solo songs I have EVER seen were THIO, YBTTC and Smuggler's Blues. That's it.

    Julie, I know it sucks that you've only seen those three, but perhaps you can take some small comfort in the fact that you were one of the few people who got to see him perform live in 1988. That's pretty special!
