Here’s something that dropped out of the Easter Bunny’s basket…. 
This is the official music video for the song “Clam Digging” from the Fabulous Blue Wabbits album “Instwoh-Mentals - Volume I”.
“Clam Digging” is a stop motion animation parody, a “Monkee-esque” romp through 1960’s surf and tiki culture, with puppets, stuffies, retro props, and sight-gags galore! The music video features The Fabulous Blue Wabbits - Guitar Wabbit, Bass Wabbit, Keys Wabbit, Drums Wabbit. The band members are joined by Root Bear the Engineer and a group of their loyal fans.
Be on the look-out for an SG101 Easter Egg!!!
Hope it makes you smile!

P.S. - The answer to the question “What did the Fabulous Blue Wabbits do during the COVID-19 pandemic lock-down, daddy?”

That's pretty fun... and probably a lot of work too!

Thanks, El Monstro PorFavor!
Yep, it was a lot of work, but it was fun to do and kept my wife and I busy during the pandemic lock-down. In our neck of the woods we were shut-in for over 20 months, so we needed something to keep us from getting cabin fever.
Stay healthy! Stay safe!

That video oozes charm! I love that cool old gear and especially the use of puppetry and stop-motion. That wobble surfer is hilarious, and I also love the dead Barbie! (Okay I know she’s not supposed to be dead but I’m morbid.) Very nice work!

Thanks to everyone for your kind words!
Daniel, the Barbie scene was a parody of the Huey Lewis "If This Is It" video. I tried to include as many sight gags as I could think of. Beach Boy, Ventures, and Beatles album covers...whatever came to mind.
Thanks SoCalJim and Joheny. Smiles and chuckles are what it was all about!
Revmike, yes I just had to include a Traynor product.
Thanks again to everyone. Have a Happy Easter!!!
