You have to hand it to the members of the Riverside County Philharmonic who filmed a chunk of the California wildfire as they drove to their gig. At the same time, it is Hollywood, even if Riverside is halfway on the road to nowhere. (Believe me, I’ve driven out there.) In LA, musicians film what’s exciting around them; had this been Chicago, they would have found a way to buy off the local fire chief. The fun starts around 00:47. Oh, and the soundtrack is Shostakovich’s Tenth Symphony. (Via)
