Saves the Day - Freakish
Trailer
Synopsis
Directed by Matthew Barry and Maureen Egan and filmed at The Lounge in West Hollywood, this 2002 video for the second single from Saves the Day's Stay What You Are backs the band with a supporting cast of furry, Muppet-esque puppets. The clip became part of pop-punk lore as one half of the so-called "Emo Puppet Video War": Saves the Day had already wrapped this puppet-filled shoot when Weezer released their own Muppets crossover video for "Keep Fishin'" just months later.
Context & Trivia
The video's furry puppet cast, filmed at The Lounge in West Hollywood, became part of the "Emo Puppet Video War" after Weezer independently released a Muppets-featuring video for "Keep Fishin'" a couple of months later.
