I've seen this around, yet it's not getting much attention. Surprising. :/ It looks awesome though, if it's real.^_^ Oh great, now I have this song stuck in my head. XD And just a guess, but notice that the entire cieling above the table of which they're standing on is cut out, and I think I even see a person up there, perhaps with sticks and strings? :P But right now it's just fun. *Dances*

Eh, I wasn't THAT amazed... That probably cost a lot more than it should have.

C'mon, Sony... dancing? You know better than that... make 'em fight! MAKE 'EM FIGHT!!

They are a male band from Toronto, for everyone not in the know of English-Canadian rock music. Good song, too.
