The Zimmers - My Generation
The Zimmers are a really interesting concept coming from Britain. A filmmaker put together a lot of seniors and put a video project around it. Well, well it could just be another creative idea what so ever, but it is actually produced by Mike Hedges (U2, Dido, Cure), shot by Geoff Wonfor (Band Aid, Beatles Anthology), and it was recorded in the legendary Beatles studio 2.
The funny thing is, their “star” is Peter Oakley who already recived a big popularity boost some time ago on Youtube through his “Geriatric 1927″ videos. (Just reflections on his life and youtubers gone wild for it).
It’s cool to see such a project on it’s way to success, that it’s giving people some shine in their eyes. And well, let’s see how far they can push it in the charts. But the good thing is… at least their taget group aren’t bad internet peer-to-peer thieves hehe
Update: (as promised… links!) they got of cause MySpace and about Peter Oakley on Youtube.
Stumble it!
