Blake Babies SXSW 2001 "Girl in a Box"

This is the Blake Babies playing at SXSW on 3/17/2001 in Austin. They sing "Girl in a Box", Neil Young's "Barstool Blues" and Fleetwood Mac's "I Walk a Thin Line". I'm guessing "Girl in a Box" is based on the true story of Colleen Stan who was picked up hitchiking by Cameron Hooker (she assumed he was ok because he had a wife and baby in the car) and was locked in a drawer beneath his water bed for several years. The case is written about in the book "The Perfect Victim".

@tiffyb85 I still remember seeing the case talked about on an old "Geraldo" show 30 years ago. The studio audience was stunned and there was this kind of weird dead silence in the studio.

Great, but I would have liked to have seen Julianna in the frame once in a while

I have got two Blake Babies SXSW clips on Youtube and I think on the songs "I Walk the Line", "Barstool Blues", "Sanctify", and "Out There" she is in frame about 99.99% of the time.

@chasspeed i didn't see it on that show, well its a sort of urban legend to scare kids now or to stop hitchhiking. lol but i saw it on A&E ages ago.
