Montage of Potato-themed events and performances from Jeffrey Allen Price ca.1996-2003
Created in 2003, this video predates YouTube and many of the social media platforms that would later become common places for sharing short-form video, and before the Think Potato Institute officially existed, I assembled this “Potato TV Sampler” for the Tom Green Show. (I was asked by the producer to submit a reel for possible guest appearance on the show). The video is a chaotic montage of potato-themed performances, festivals, music, games, and experiments spanning roughly 1996–2003.
Background music by J.A.P. and the Blues Spuds band covering Neil Young’s “T-bone” (Got mashed potatoes/ain’t got no t-bone). Features segments include:
“Potato Gun Shot from 5 Feet”, 2003
“I Like Potato and Potato Likes Me”, 2003
“Potato Stratego”, 2003
“POTATOLAB”, 2002
“Emergency PotatoFete”, 2001
“Think Potato Festivals II and III, 1998-99”
and more.
