With two impressive videos already for tracks from their current EP - the first featuring a weird man-beast in a life drawing class for Kinky Lola, the second a vengeful ball of pubic hair for Wonderful - Francobollo's latest video actually shows the band, and the raucous excitement of their live shows. But bandmember and their regular video director Sam Bailey cannot resist throwing in some more wacky humour.All of a sudden, we're thrown in to the bizarre world of the American daytime TV soap - and it's great. Sam has made lots of fine Francobollo vids and he also directs theatre, but he says that commissioners have proved less receptive to his off-the-wall ideas for other bands. On this showing, he may be destined to end up directing Days Of Our Lives.
