Off the Grid Video - alternate version?

[kleptomaniac]

here (http://www.toshiba-emi.co.jp/intl/special/0707beastie/?rssno=202)

i was actually looking for audio for the bonus tracks as you can tell but no luck :p

scroll down to video & you'll see "off the grid" i wouldn't have checked it out but i know i didn't recognize the scene shown in the picture from the video! i don't believe i have seen this version anywhere else...hmm...

starts at 1:47...

Great find! Sweet "Matrix" like effects in this version....

Very nice Klep. From an artistic standpoint, I can see why they cut that stuff out of the "official" video, but I'm still happy to see it. :)

[kleptomaniac]

me too, i like both, even though the one i fell in love with was the "official" video that yauch posted on the front page, the one that has him smiling at the end. s'all very goooood. :D

[Friis gal]

now they think people will give them a coin or two, for just poseing? :p

oh, yauch's got a new bass!

[kleptomaniac]

i'd give 'em a coin or two if you know what i mean... ;)



also, i'd give 'em hugs. :)

I very rarely ask for anything on here but I'm gonna hit whoever up that can Rip this vid. Please post link to it or pm it to me.

The alternative footage of them on that plateau is very Pink Floyd-esque.

The alternative footage of them on that plateau is very Pink Floyd-esque.

i was trying to put my finger on it...

I was also trying to pinpoint where that might have been shot... first I was thinking East River, maybe by the 59th street Tram, but then I realized it could have anywhere on their tour earlier in the year- Australia or somewhere along those lines...

I really liked that version. I love the surrounding cinematography.

Why? Can't you just right click and save it?

Wow awesome, that's really cool. I wonder why they're hiding these videos from us! (like The Gala Event)

[kleptomaniac]

they want us to hunt for the treasure ourselves? ;D

You can see the alternate version also at the (new) little official german site:

Nope, it just saves a file that shows where the video is located on the net.

I wish the US version looked like that.

i was watching that top 20 countdown on vh1 this morning and it showed videos from albums in stores now, and showed a clip of "off the grid"! :)

and it was this version, which i call the "alternate version" but i guess that's the one that's going to be shown, beastie boys better make the countdown! and debut at number one! (lb) :D

i've never tried this (http://www.vh1.com/shows/series/top_20_countdown/vote.jhtml) before, but i'm voting for them at #1 as many times as i can, i hope all of my votes count. :o

edit: oh yeah, forgot to mention that when the bboys appeared on the screen i did a high-pitched girlie squeal like "oh my god!", but that's to be expected already, i suppose! :P
