I strongly recommend you watch this in full screen. It`s cut down from 53 minutes and flashes by pretty fast.
This is a multi media adaptation of the song "The Long Black Veil", originally recorded by Lefty Frisell and then covered by pretty well everyone since.
I did this show with the Prairie Dancers in July of 2006.
In case you were wondering here`s the text of the song....
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me
The judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word, tho' it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
Chorus
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Oh, the scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But late at night, when the north wind blows
In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones
I'm sorry but I can't see the value of this. It's just a little bit wierd for me.

Those masks are scary with the big eyes and noses. So, if he was with his friends wife, who really was the killer? You need CSI on the case.
