Be An Extra in a Jarvis Cocker Video

The latest project by the Super!Alright! guys is a viral video for Jarvis Cocker (Pulp), which will attempt to answer that nagging question in the back of everyone's mind:

What if, instead of going into politics, George W. Bush had pursued his love of Arena Rock?

In order to make this work, they need extras for the "backstage" segment of the video, to be shot in a certain parking lot in South Austin. People are asked to show up in "1984-era" threads, à la Heavy Metal Parking Lot.

"It's basically Arena Rock George Bush walking around backstage, giving high fives and making out," said producer Chris Rose.

Extras probably won't get paid, but they'll provide free beer. The whole shoot should take about three hours. If you're interested, email 'em for more details!
