Quite recently we brought you Scottish four-piece Copy Haho's documentation of their recent European tour with not-actually-Welsh indie-pop renegades Los Campesinos!. It was quite good. It made me, and I hope in turn you, laugh. Well, now there's another Los Campesinos! video to watch, albeit one which is slightly longer and less...jauntily edited. Yeah.
It's part a documentary, part tour diary, though probably more of the latter than the former. Plenty of stuff about ChatRoulette early on. The whole thing has been filmed and - I assume - edited by LC! bassist Ellen. I think there's another part coming along, but I'm not promising anything.
N.B It is quite long. I've not even watched it in full yet. I'm starting to think Sparky Deathcap is my favourite member now, though.
