Since U Been Gone - A Costingo Revue



As you might recall, during my Heartland Tour, my internet access was limited and of questionable quality. As a result, I was unable to provide pictures to accompany my description of Costingo (here). In the comments, I mentioned that I would make amends by compiling the photos into an iMovie set to Since U Been Gone, a Costingo classic. I ended up going a step further: I got the kids together and we borrowed the step-sister-in-law's friend's music studio space and they sang it themselves. Enjoy:



Final Heartland Wrap-up coming soon...

genius - i think the video really captures the phenomenon that was Costingo. The best ones are pre teeth to the head in motion worm shots. In my opinion that was a turning point also because it could have led to tears and disaster but only made the party stronger. As the worm itself tends to do.

totally. when she smashed her teeth into the back of my head, I kept asking her if she was alright, and you could tell that she was in real pain, but she kept nodding her head, answering that yes, she was alright. It was like she knew that the party was at a critical juncture and all eyes were on her and an open display of tears would be big trouble. So she walked calmly to the bathroom and only then did she let the tears flow. Incredible control. If you sacrifice for Costingo, it will come back to you tenfold.
