DIVERSION: Jagg Off - Todd Strauss-Schulson, director

OK, this isn't a music video, but  it does involve music and it's from director whose name — Todd Strauss Schulson — has appeared again and again on this Web site in relation to his videos. And, it made me laugh. And, I love the term "Jagg Off" so much that it should enter the lexicon as a noun to describe an overly showy and/or goofy  frontman (as in: "Wow, Taylor Hicks is really a Jagg Off).

Watch. Enjoy. Have a laugh at Mick Jagger's expense, while Mick himself keeps strutting and laughing his way to the bank.

SHOT: Mike Doughty - Bex Schwartz, director

You probably know Mike Doughty as the frontman of Soul Coughing, and perhaps you know Bex Schwartz from a whole bunch of stuff — be it her blog, or one of her many many  TV appearances, or the video she directed for The Long Winters.

This video was shot in Brooklyn. Lefferts Gardens, to be exact.

artist: Mike Doughty song: "Fort Hood" label: ATO director(s): Bex Schwartz production co: High Water Mark Productions
