The Afghan Whigs have delivered a fun, self-directed, GoPro-filmed video for “The Lottery,” one of the standouts from the band’s latest Do to the Beast.
Greg Dulli says of the visual, “Meet Ryan O’Hara, our monitor engineer and cougar magnet. He wakes up everyday with a smile on his face and something positive to share with you. Every night during the gig he performs a parallel show behind the board and it’s phenomenal to watch. Occasionally, I’ll forget to sing because I’m watching him turn into Bez from Happy Mondays. But that’s rock and roll for you. It keeps you young (see video January 5th).”
The Afghan Whigs’ previously announced European tour begins February 2 in Dublin, IE at The Academy and ends on February 24 in Tel Aviv, ISR at Barby. For the most up to date information and tickets please visit theafghanwhigs.com.
