Levi's "Ones to Watch" promotional film 2005

Tiny venues of about 200 people, hooded tops and possible interview flatulence from Mr Urbanowicz. This post has it all. Levi's sponsored the "Ones to Watch" tour which featured Editors and lasted just under a week in December of 2005. It was a week of gigs showcasing new bands at various Barfly venues around the UK, and the band were filmed performing in Glasgow for a 7 minute film. All Sparks and Munich were broadcast on television here in the UK, as well as various interviews with the band and  a look around the tourbus with King Leetch (there's 16 bunks, that's amazing!). Also look out for a cameo appearance by the band's guitar tech, Braveheart who is clearly thrilled by the limelight.

It's wonderful seeing them all at this stage in their development again, especially when you know all the things that they'll go on to achieve in the years that follow. The quality is a not as pristine as it could be, but as a curiosity it's still an interesting watch.

The bonus material includes the press release that went out at the time, as well as some photos and short video clips that were made for the media. You can check them out below, enjoy the trip down the lane of memories ;)
