Hey!
So I never imagined that shooting a video would be so exhausting! I should have figured it out though ... I mean, having to give the camera your absolute most energetic performance EVER and do it forty times within 12 hours ... I should have expected to be exhausted.
But it was a LOT of fun. Josh's sister came by with delicious sandwich stuff, which was much appreciated - and I can't wait to see how it turns out.
THEN, the next day we shot the "storyline" part in the streets of Kitchener. If you've seen the promo banner for the video, you will have noticed gigantic puzzle pieces. Yes, those ARE in our video.
I've still got them in our trailer too - I'm trying to figure out what to do with them now that the video is done.
Anyway, the notion of having a video is pretty exciting to me. You know, you see all the music videos on TV and online and now thinking that Hello Kelly will have one ... it's a pretty cool feeling.
It's also cool to see some of our peers coming out with videos too. Did you SEE the After the Anthems video? That thing looked pro. And - I don't know if I'm allowed to tell - but Silverlane is working on a video. They showed me an early cut ... and it's like .... REALLY cool. I couldn't even believe what I was looking at. Super impressive.
Anyway, our video is for my favourite song from the new record, "Simple Love Song". We're hoping to be able to show you guys by the end of the month - but I make no promises!!
Tonght we're playing CHANGE CONFERENCE in Toronto and, even though it's gonna be an amazing show, it's a little bittersweet because it's going to our bass player's last show with us. He's married now and looking forward to that life - thinking about the kinds of things that married men think about and such. It's going to be tough to see him go because he's been by my side since the VERY beginning. Not gonna lie, I'm probably gonna get PRETTY depressed. Sigh.
But after a week of being mad at everything, I'll figure something out and make an announcement about who's going to be filling James' big, hyper-energetic shoes. I'll keep you posted about THAT ...
But if you can, definitely come out to Queensway Cathedral tonight and cheer him on. It's only 5 bucks! Come on!
Thanks for reading!

I am glad that the video shoot went well, even though it was exhausting. I can't speak for all the fans, but I'll say it anyways, all of us fans thank you! Not just for the video, or the songs, but for the message your sending out to us, Kelly, and your constant faith in God. It's amazing, and inspiring.
I hope that you all do well tonight at the concert, I won't be able to be there, cause I'm in the states, lol, but I can still hope it goes well. And it's sad that James is leaving. Luck, Francy, with the big decision of choosing someone to replace him.
God bless all you guys!
