This is a raw video document of The Merchants of Venus' first band rehearsal. The year was 1995. The place was "Borgen" in Oslo, Norway. The song(s) are the tail end of "The Arms of Morpheus" going into "Morning Glory. It's a rough first run-through. The players were Aslak Nygren, Ivar Eidem, Rune Annaniassen, Charles Normal, Brian Hayes, and Lars Pedersen. The purpose was to set out on a national tour. The cameraman was chaotic. The sound is representative of the cacophony one finds in a small concrete room filled with Marshall amplifiers and ill-tuned drums.
