Elbow frontman Guy Garvey has told Radio 1 he nearly drowned while making the video for new single Fugitive Motel. He told the radio station: "I
nearly drowned while making it. I had to swim around in a lake in a wetsuit,
with my suit over the top. I nearly drowned. I tried to shout to the boat with the camera on it, but I couldn't shout because I was paralysed. They were filming me drowning without realising that I was actually drowning so there are some interesting cutaways from that video."

From: CMU

Marty's band, Growing Old Disgracefully, can be found at: Disgraceful Music. His Cthulhu tales can be found at Temple of Dagon.
