RJ and Jess - Wedding Reception
Going Home This is a beautiful rendition of the song titled "Going Home." Its history is interesting. If you're curious, do some research.
Thank you, Silk Road Ensemble, for creating this beautful version

Venezuelan Youth Orchestra: Shostakovich's 10th Symphony: 2nd (Allegro) Movement This 4 minute clip showcases one of the best orchestras in the world.
Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man). This song was composed by Tommy Shaw of Styx. The video shows a collaboration of Tommy Shaw and the Cleveland Orchestra Contemporary Youth Orchestra. I think the song touches me because I was indeed an angry young man at one time in my life.
The Angry Young Man (Zoomed) Same song as above, but performed on a "Zoom Call." I'm guessing they did this becuase of COVID. But it might have just been a way to be creative. In any case, I think it's great.
Blue Collar Man Here is another Tommy Shaw composition performed during a collaboration of Tommy Shaw and the Cleveland Orchestra Contemporary Youth Orchestra.
Girls With Guns You guessed it. Here is yet another Tommy Shaw composition. Performed during a collaboration of Tommy Shaw and the Cleveland Orchestra Contemporary Youth Orchestra.
Renegade Video resolution isn't as good as the previous 4 Tommy Shaw & CYO entries. But sound is good. AND the fiddle player near the end! Wow! She reminded me of Sugar Cane Harris! And to some degree Billy Bang. ALSO that girl violinist that never smiled in several of the videos ACTUALLY SMILED at the end of this video!
Ahree Lee - 1000 pictures This clip shows 3 years of "selfies" taken by artist Ahree Lee, one picture a day. The clip starts a little slow but then explodes into 1000 pictures in about 2 minutes of time.

The Great Gig In The Sky (Excerpt)- The Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd - March 1973 (You might have to search for the start button at the bottom of the screen)
Dash Cam Videos of Mighty Five (Except there are only 4 of them shown. Canyonlands has no video. I just took stills.)
Peter and the Wolf Narrated by Sterling Holloway.
Paris, Texas Great movie. This is the first scene. Movie score written by Sam Shepard. Directed by Wim Wenders. Starring Harry Dean Stanton.
Mona Lisa at the Louvre Thanks to "Wanderlust Travel Videos" (you can find them on YouTube) for posting the video where this segment came from. You will see how popular the Mona Lisa painting is to the public at the Louvre in Paris. FYI, there appears to be a degree of uncertainty as to how genuine this Mona Lisa painting is. It was stolen once, in 1911, and at least 6 high quality copies of it were made before it was returned
Rittenhouse This is a powerful video. Not the 11 second type that seems to convince viewers that it happened as they saw it. But an 11 minute video that showed the story in significant detail. Folks, in my opinion, we have a huge problem in the USA.
Uncle Tom , Parts 1 and 2:

Versions of "River" and "Don't Explain
Pipe Organ (30 minute video) A gargantuan, colossal, Brobdingnagian musical instrument residing in Chicago's 4th Presbyterian Church. It is the largest pipe organ in Chicago.
America The Beautiful The USMC had another commitment that year, so the 12 DCI groups played America the Beautiful as a unit. Note that no percussion was included. That would likely have made syncronization more difficult.
Phantom Regiment 2025 Montage, Designed For Age-Outs This DCI montage was well done. Phantom Regiment 2025 did not have a title to their performance. On purpose. They wanted to display the ethereal aspects of DCI. No story line. Just feeling. They placed 6th.
G-7 Wars This is an interesting and enlightening video of internal DCI politics. (There is a duplicate link for this video in the "Everything DCI (Almost)" link.) A few years ago, the Boston Crusaders and others were getting pushed downward financially by the influence of the "top 7" DCI groups. The ones loaded with money.
The Boston Crusaders decided to push the button. Their entire 2014 performance focused on what they perceived as the inequities and uneven playing field of DCI. This video is apropos, based on the fact that the Boston Crusaders took the Gold Medal for the first time ever in 2025!
If you think that it was given to them as a DCI peace offering, you are mistaken. The Boston Crusaders performance on August 9, 2025 was outstanding and deserving of their first place win. (Altough they only beat the Bluecoats by 0.175 points with a score of 98.425.)
