Scharpling Penned/Produced Ted Leo and the Pharmacists Video Premiere!

[Tom Scharpling]

Hey everyone!

I wrote and produced a video for Ted Leo and the Pharmacists a month or so ago, and now it has made its exciting world debut at www.stereogum.com. I'm happy with it.
My friend Michael Bellino directed it. He's good.  AND there's a FOT celebrity in it! What more do you need?

Tom.

[John Junk]

I don't like it.





I LOVE IT.

Is it me or is that Officer Tom??

first thing i thought when that guy came on the screen.

I don't care who's in it (besides Mr. Leo, of course).  It's awful cute.  (That's a compliment, in case the word "cute" gives you pause.)

I also thought the burly guy was Officer Tom (I really hope the marijuana leaf tattoo is a fake), especially since the initial post said an FOT appeared in the video.

 Tom meant an actual celebrity, not a local traffic cop.

[masterofsparks]

That was a zing.

[Sarah]

I'm so simple I thought "FOT celebrity" referred to Ted.

I was hoping to see cameos by Sammy Hagar and Sylvester Stallone. So disappointing.

I believe that tattoo is of a nautical star, not a pot leaf.

Are Spaghetti-o's vegan?? Inquiring minds want to know.

I for one would like to know the names of ALL of the people in the video.  Are there credits listed anywhere?

Upon second viewing, I think you're right.

This made my day, and soon it will make the day of my friend Colleen.

no. I'm guessing it's probably not spaghetti o's
