1. So much of why I love Ghostland Observatory is on display in this video:  Aaron gets 4000 fans to wish a laser-powered happy birthday to an old friend from his hometown of San Saba, known mostly for its Pecan trees.   He tries to dedicate a song to his friend, but ends up dedicating it to everyone, “to all you beautiful faces I see in the front row every time I come out here.”   To Austin!  To Texas!  And then, lasers, LED walls, strobe lights and glowsticks.

    As a special bonus, the lights did something weird to this person’s video camera, and the resulting distortion in the video provides an extra layer of pulsing craziness.
