The Posies? Sugar? Why these two videos you may ask? Because this lucky boy is going to see Mr. Mould & Jon Auer (The Posies, Big Star) in NYC tomorrow night at some fancy place called The City Winery.

Unearthed Video: “Lies” by Neal Schon & Jan Hammer »

The space between Neal Schon’s chin and the top of his jeans? About 8 inches. That’s definitely not a lie. Best view of this high-waisted handsomeness, around the 1:50 or 2:17 mark.

Back in 1987 Rush entrusted the video for their song “Time Stands Still” to a guy who was not afraid to use a green screen and a special effect or 4,000. The pitch: “Hey Guys, love your stuff!
