Weekly Break Time 3
Road Trip USA. Mike Matas edits a whole trip from San Francisco to New York into a very short video. As he says, “2 weeks. 3,000 miles. 5,000 pictures. In 3 minutes.” Look like fun! (The big city in the middle is Chicago, where I come from.)

David Letterman, the biggest late night TV comedian, is retiring in one year. The night he announced his retirement, he had a new band on his show (March 27). This band was not well known. It is now. After the group was put on YouTube, it “went viral” meaning it acted like a virus and grew very very quickly, with almost a million people watching. The new band is called Future Island. Look for more of them in the future. They sang the song Seasons (Waiting on You). Lyrics.
