We Apologize In Advance For This Video You Are About To See, Both To You And To General Motors

The outrageous indifference, mixed with distate enthusiasm shown by TTACers for our Chicago Auto Show Video led us to think that it would be a good idea to do one for the New York Auto Show. Unfortunately, Vodka McBigbra's dental emergency forced me to bounce out of the show halfway through. The video crew was left with an absolute mishmash of first-take cynicism and random Asians wandering through the shots.

In his autobiography, Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash notes that Steven Adler's drumming in the sessions for "Rocket Queen" was so coked-up and arrhythmic that producer Mike Clink had to sit down and splice together the whole track from random sections. LeftLane's producer Matt Sargent found himself in about the same situation here. Is this video as good as "Rocket Queen"? Of course not.

Therefore, please accept my apologies for even suggesting that you watch it. And I'd like to apologize to GM, as well, particularly to the fellow who asked me to "stop touching the Enclave" during the "wave rider" segment about halfway through. Thanks!
