Who are these people in the video? The guy in the kitchen when the video starts does appear to be Jeff, but who is the woman? From whose loins did that child spring? Billy has this thing with children (er...not Pedobear style) as though he must have some sort of repressed desire to be a daddy. (Hmm...the Today, Rocket, Disarm, 1979, and Thirty-Three videos, the SD era promotional pics with little kids hanging off his arms, inviting so many children onstage it appears to have become a daycare...either that, or it's the "stuck at the point of trauma" theory which posits that because of unresolved issues he simply hasn't been able to move beyond that particular stage in his own development emotionally.)

Maybe a little bit of both. He's a man-child and he can often relate better to children than adults (at least that is what I've heard and read - actually, here's a link to a weird Billy story where he spent it with a random family in KC: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...&postcount=232 and http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...&postcount=293 (I also find it funny that steve albini was/is a member of that site)). I didn't notice anyone doing dishes in the video. But, Kevin Dippold is hanging around and I think that woman is probably the nanny, and those kids are Kerry's.

There was a show in 2008, I can't remember if it was the August shows or the 20th Anniversary tour, possibly during Set the Controls where these two kids randomly come on stage, and Billy come-hithers them, "come along, children" and there is this weird moment where these two children are just standing there in Billy's arms. Anyone remember that wtf moment seeing it on YouTube? When I first saw this "Today" video, the first thing I thought of is wondering if these are the same children.

I love the way people see a video with Billy and some kids and it automatically becomes some sort of serious mental issue.

I wish there was a way to make the ignore feature easier to get to. How come I can make someone a buddy with one click but ignore takes like 5.

I actually think this is fucking cool. And he's playing an old song. This has made me somewhat more hopeful that he's dropped the attitiude of "no more old songs".

Definitely. Part of my disgust for Billy was his apparent distaste for his entire back catalogue, therefore alienating me and 99% of his fanbase, almost spoiled the legacy... but here he actually seems human and to play a song like "Today" and still sing like he means it? Now I'm hopeful.
