I’m so proud to be releasing the new version of Be Here Now. This video will always have a special place in my heart.  It was made during one of the happiest periods of my life, and captures a moment of pure creative expression among four friends, on an ideal afternoon.  It’s a rare thing, and I knew I was catching it as the seconds went by.  A documentary filmmaker lives for days like this.   

When they finished performing the last song, as we stood on top of that train, they both had a look of total confidence on their faces.  And I knew I’d be in touch with them for the rest of my life.
