Very cool indeed!

I'm sure I read somewhere that Jim is a fan of Mussorgsky's Night On Bald Mountain, which was of course used in the original Fantasia movie. Can't think where I would have read that though...maybe I just made it up? My mind plays tricks on me sometimes...

Yeah that was pretty awesome.  I think someone had to have a little magical mushroom time to put that together.

Yea that was trippy....very cool though. I like how you were sensible enough to sync up the volcano with the heavy outro...it all went together very nicely.

So nice...that just made my day. I've never seen that part of Fantasia before, and it goes so well with the song.

Welcome to the forum.

This clip is from the 2nd Fantasia movie Fantasia 2000  :)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasia_2000

Igor Stravinsky's Firebird Suite - 1919 Version – the story of a spring Sprite and her companion Elk. After a long winter she restores the life to the forest but accidentally awakes the fiery spirit of destruction (the namesake Firebird of the piece) in a nearby volcano. The Firebird proceeds in destroying the forest and seemingly the sprite. She is restored to life however after the destruction and the forest life is reborn with her after some encouraging from the Elk. The story is considered an exercise in the theme of life-death-rebirth deities.

Thanks for all wonderful compliments everyone! Hopefully this inspires other MMJ projects or just other videos. And as for the magic mushrooms, haha, I save those for the shows! Thank You!

That was niiiice!  Worked perfectly together.  It actually reminded me of Dark Side and Oz.

It's shocking how well they fit together. It was almost like they were made with each other in mind.
