Pretty cool. You'll have a good life with her since you're willing to put forth that extra effort.

[quote=Skinny Tee;553231]LOL....Thanks man. The Railway Depot they're under in this picture is right in front of the Manassas Museum :)

I really wish that Manassas, the band, had at least one hit. I live here and I couldn't tell you a cool song that they sung.

It could be worse. At least Stills gets title billing over Nash.[/quote]

This was a double album of folk/country/California rock that was heavy with Afro-Cuban rythms and extended jams. It's well respected among musical types but has no radio-friendly hits on it. The second "Manassas" album is considered to be a failure and is virtually impossible to find.

Thje train depot makes it's second vet-rock cameo here: (You may recognize other scenes as well). The tennis courts are the old ones from Osbourn High School before they rebuilt most of it. The "3rd Base Restaurant" is now "Okra's" at the corner of Center? and Battle.

congrats on the engagement.

Just watched it, that's awesome; I like how you guys were just geeking the whole time, I'd much prefer that to sobbing, freaking out in joy, or whatever.

That camerawork when you were outside was dizzying though haha.

Uh-oh...we got a Manassas boy in the house! I just noticed your location after you listed the detailed information that only a Manassas resident would know.

Next thing I know you'll be posting a picture of a grassy area near Manassas Park that has a chalk outline of severed male member. :)

Winwood is kind of dissing Manassas in the song too because he's saying that he is in the low-life when he's around the Manassas sites. He's a long way aways from any kind of "High-Life" now...that's what you get for ragging on Manassas Winwood!

Thanks man! I know she'll appreciate you saying that because she's not into the overly romantic type sap.

I encourage anybody who thinks others would like to see to pass the link on if you can. If this had a viral effect I'd love to have something like that since I'm into video some much.

Anyway, thanks for watching!

I'll throw it up on Facebook or Myspace or something, I grew up there and lived there after HS graduation for a few years as well.
