Also, a new, all-animated video clip has been issued for the song "I Wanna Win the Lottery" by Marky Ramone & the Intruders, which can be viewed below:
"Back in the nineties my friend won the NYS Lottery," explains Marky about the song. "I was struck by how his life changed overnight. It inspired me to write the song. It’s a universal daydream. The song was co-produced by me and my buddy, Lars Frederkisen from Rancid. A few years ago I met Laurent in Paris. He was a fan and came to my show. We share the same love of movies and anime. He asked if I would like him to do a video of 'Wanna Win the Lottery' and of course I told him yes."
