US Roadtrip - Woodside, NY to St. Louis, MO
In the summer of 2007, five Irish students flew from San Diego, California to Queens, New York, where they would buy four tonnes of early 1990s scrap metal from a Puerto Rican man for the fine sum of $1,200, worth a lot more at the time than it is now, let me tell you.These four tonnes of scrap metal came in the form of a Dodge Ram 250, born in Detroit, Michigan in 1992, and christened "Maureen" in rural New Jersey some 15 years later. Boasting a 6.0L engine, state-of-the-art surround sound and a staggering collection of unused (or so we'd like to have thought) flavoured condoms, Maureen would become a loyal servant, a friend and a soulmate for us all.Cast: James Bowles, Ronan Daly, Conor McCarthy, Robert Tobin, Matthew WardDirector: Robert TobinProducer: Robert TobinAll footage recorded on Fuji Finepix S9600Recorded 29 July 2007 - 03 August 2007 in California, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri, USA.This part features footage from:Pacific Beach, San Diego & San Fernando, CATijuana, Baja CaliforniaWoodside, Queens & Manhattan, NYWeehawken, Newark & White House Station, New JerseyBerks County, Lurgan & Somerset, PennsylvaniaRoneys Point & Wheeling, West VirginiaHebron, OhioSpiceland, Knightstown & Indianapolis, IndianaEffingham, Pocahontas, Highland Silver Lake, Highland & East Saint Louis, IllinoisSaint Louis, MissouriMusicPlanet Funk - Chase the SunJustin Timberlake - What Goes Around... ...Comes AroundImogen Heap - Hide and SeekThe Beastie Boys - An Open Letter to NYCLostprophets - Last Train HomeThe Dandy Warhols - I am a ScientistRay Charles - Hit the Road JackTV on the Radio - Staring at the SunBruce Springsteen - Born to RunFoo Fighters - GeneratorBooka Shade - Night Falls2Pac - California LoveJosh Homme - No One KnowsNathan Fake - The Sky Was Pink (James Holden Remix)A Flock of Seagulls - I Ran (So Far Away)The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Crosstown TrafficNo Doubt - Just a GirlMatchbox Twenty - How Far We've ComeC+C Music Factory - Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)AC/DC - Highway to HellFuneral for a Friend - Into Oblivion (Reunion)Sufjan Stevens - Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, IllinoisNelly - St. LouieDr. Feelgood - Route 66

Very well done you guys! There is nothing better than a road trip! I can say that from my own experience too. I've been across Australia and I loved it!I'm going to Europe now and then I'll make it to USA! Your video kinda helped me to have an idea of what I'll find. Gave it 5 stars cause you deserved it and no video on youtube ever got my attention for nearly 30min.CheersAlessandra

Sorry about that! Yeah we really enjoyed STL, probably the best city we visited on our trip, we visited OKC on a Sunday and it was dead. Tumbleweed. Amarillo, TX too. More to come soon, I'm working on it!

Really? There you have it, there was a crash on the interstate that day, it took us about 10 hours to get from the Ohio state border to Indianapolis, it was crazy.
