If you are here you may have seen the short version video of PicKleTEL Volume 2 going around somewhere.
Here is the longer version to give you more of a taste of the tunes and following in the posts on my blog (just scroll back a few posts), you will find the full versions posted:
Ever since I started making pickleball parody REELs and short videos I've envisioned the K-Tel format as a teaser video. It's how I grew up listening to music and I vividly recall watching the K-Tel commercials. My allowance money was just enough to buy a K-Tel album from the swap meet every once in a while. I guess the nostalgia never left me and I still get the feels over it. Volume 1 was a pile of fun and I've just gotten deeper into pickleball and made more REELs since so here we are with Volume 2. I don't see an end.
If I had more skill and videography skills and more than an iphone I'd do a better job of it all but I think I get the point across so I'm sticking with my role as creator. Make the rough drafts up and share them out. When things need a polish there is a time and place and people who love to do all that.
