Dave Chapelle - The Video

Posted by Ezra Caraeff on Wed, Jul 15, 2009 at 8:43 AM

Dave Chappelle at Pioneer Square

Surely the internets are loaded with various camera phone clips of Dave Chapelle's show/Twitwreck last night, but I doubt any of those can touch this OregonLive video that not only has Chapelle's face, but his voice as well. In a night that had just about everything but sound, this video will sum up the thrill of his arrival, and awkward technical issues that followed.

Did you just invent the term Twitwreck, or am I late to that party too?

It's funny how the most traditional of this city's media is the only one to get good video and audio of an event that was hyped, spread and over-covered via non-traditional media.

Blah, I agree. OL did a fantastic job, especially since it took a lot of work to get that close to Chapelle.
