Exclusive Video: The Riverboat Gamblers' "Victory Lap"

Scott Heisel on 6/25/09 @ 10:00 AM

Fresh off their opening stint on this summer's Rise Against/Rancid megatour, Denton, Texas' favorite sons, THE RIVERBOAT GAMBLERS have unleashed the music video for "Victory Lap," the second single off their new album, Underneath The Owl. Director Jose Jones writes:

"We were going for a Documentary "On the Road" type look for this video. Mike, the lead Singer, liked my Daniel Johnston Music Video a lot, and wanted something similar. The song is about constantly touring, and then finally coming home. The video combines footage from one on-set location, as well as lots of footage from Shows, and the road, and everything in between. I followed the Boys for months (though I did not get to go to Australia with them, which would have been nice)."

Check it out, and leave a comment below telling the band what you think!

Riverboat Gamblers are definitely one of my favorites. They put on a great show, their records are great, and Mike Wiebe is a really cool guy. :]
