OK - not the most gripping of videos but beautifully hypnotic all the same - well for me anyway. Seeing Dear Paulina “out there”…on someone else’s record deck makes me proud of the fact that I was once organised enough to see the release of it through…

I came across these videos of Luna playing in Brazil a few weeks ago but forgot to post them here. They are from (I guess) a Brazilian TV show and features 11 live performances (intercut with offstage footage) and an interview from Luna’s show in Bela Horizonte in Brazil in 2001.
