What It Takes to Persuade People

Nervous Curtains: “Come Around Viral”

My friend fronts the band Nervous Curtains. He recently asked me to act in one of their music videos. I responded with a hearty yes and fist pump.

The video is for the song “Come Around Viral” off their album FAKE INFINITY. Thanks to Sean Kirkpatrick for letting me be a part of a fun experience.

And now, some poignant commentary.
