High and Dry (UK Version)
Directed by David Mould
Filmed at Vasquez Rocks State Park in California.
This was to accompany the UK
release of the single.
In the background to this video is a well known slab of rock
that was use in both Star Trek (the original series) and also
in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey (it's the rock that Bill and
Ted are thrown off). A good trekkie will probably know it's
exact location. (thanks to Danny)
From an interview: ...shot by David Mould at Vasqez Rocks in
California, it featured the band playing out in the desert in
front of a water tanker. As the song unfolded, the band were
soaked by falling rain, and thereby hung an amusing little tale.
"When we turned on the rain machine, we didn't realise you could
warm up the water beforehand so the whole band ended up being
doused in ice cold water and getting flue. Colin was shaking
so much I thought he was going to keel over."
