I can't stop watching! My favorite moments are the drummer during the song intro and the keyboardist during the bee swat. Catchy song as well. Way to capture so many cliches.
Damn fine. You really captured the look of those pop, faux-tough bands. And the song's damned funny as well. It makes me wish I still did college radio so I could play the shit out of it.
i'm glad to hear a band addressing huge overlooked issues like cheetah slaughter bar b q...I ran out to buy all of their C.D.s to hopefully enlighten my children....also thought that was a great hip hop dancer in this video!
that turned out great im glad i got to be a part of it! yay backpack picnic!

A public service message, a strange Emo-rap and a song about swatting bees. You can't go wrong with this episode. Remember to do your part to prevent baby cheetahs from being needlessly slaughtered...
Don’t get me wrong, Backpack’s not for everybody – it’s about
as random as it comes – but it’s definitely a breath of fresh air in
the sketch comedy landscape where lame writing and tired clichés
flourish.
They came to town via Austin amidst huge buzz from the sketch community,
so I was pumped to see what these boys could bring. If you were hanging
around the fest later Friday night, you already know that I thought
this show was phenomenal. At the risk of sounding like a Rolling Stone
movie review, I’ll add that I laughed the entire time. Hard.
Take the absurdity of Monty Python and mix it with the wit and hilarity
of Kids in the Hall and you've got yourself the makings of Backpack
Picnic. The Austin, Texas-based sketch comedy troupe, best known for
its top-rated Internet shorts on onnetworks.com, will perform as part of the Chicago Sketchfest.
