"Dead Man's Chest" (also known as "Fifteen Men on the Dead Man's Chest" or "Yo, Ho, Ho (And a Bottle of Rum)") is a fictional #seaSong, originally from #RobertLouisStevenson's novel #TreasureIsland (1883). It was expanded in a poem, titled "Derelict" by #YoungEAllison.
Sometimes it's a Wednesday and you're digging through the old folders of silly things you made because your brain autocompletes funny and wouldn't let you sleep until it was real. Enjoy.
Also come see us LIVE - www.thelongestjohns.com/live

We're busting at the seams because, after all this time, we're ready to drop one of our funniest original songs onto Band Camp. That's right, Blow Round the Horn is coming to a digital collection near you.

A picture of a bunch of blanked out pieces of paper arranged on a table in eight groups, with three thumbs (from the band, JD, Andy, and Robbie) sticking in from the side of the frame. This refers to a previous image where ALL the paper was blanked out, but now some of them are visible, saying 'Horizon' and 'Reuban(sic) Ranzo', 'La Pique', and 'John Kanaka'
So now you know what this was about, what songs are you hoping to hear?

A picture of a recording setup in the TLJ studio. Robbie stands closest to the camera, facing away, wearing headphones on, looking at the screen of his phone (for lyrics). In front of him is a mic, and then a soundproof screen with a transparent window, where JD can be seen on the other side also wearing headphones and singing into a mic. The underside of the ceiling above is coated in black soundproof tiling.
an image depicting an eighth of a weathered, tarnished golden coin, resting on a sandy background. From the middle to about halfway it is a smooth, bright gold, then against a darker background it shows a whale breaching from water, flopping backwards. Small parts of neighbouring images can be seen along the edge, but not in any way that tells you what they are.

A product photo of the Caught in the Net CD from the Longest Johns store. It's a physical copy of their latest album, and the artwork absolutely rips! That's a genuine term that you can use in copywriting, I'm almost certain! Anyway it's a beautifully hand-drawn picture of a wooden boat rolling through stormy seas, trawling a net over the side where it's caught the signature orange sofa from The Longest Johns' studio! The skies are a pastel yellow, while the seas a vibrant blue, and excellently done by Abbie.
A second depiction of the artwork from the album, showing the artwork in full without the CD included in the shot.

A thumbnail for today's newly-posted Music Video Supercut 2 - August 2020-2021 it shows Andy wearing a festive Christmas Tree hat, Robbie in a long-haired wig and bright red lipstick, JD just kind of looking confused at something above him, and Dave looking sharp in a brown waistcoat and dark green shirt. All of them are in front of an old wooden boat out on the sea.
We make a lot of videos here at the The Longest Johns Enterprises, and wouldn't it be helpful to have them all assembled into one easily-playable video? Well here's Supercut to the rescue!
