| Great Music Fencing video
http://www.c3presents.com/Video/sultan_preview.mov
Great music video with male doubles from the UT-Austin team. You need quicktime. Enjoy!
Great taste for a weapon! and Lance Armstrong as the Master.

| The band was surprisingly good.
The fencing wasn't bad at all, I thought. I was pleasantly surprised.
Also, there is now recorded proof that Lance Armstrong has fenced. If only for a music video. | |

All the fencers and the fencing guru were great! My hats off to them. In particular, one AFC fencer, who is naturally left-handed, had to fence right-handed to appear to be one of the band members. Great video!

| I like it. I don't get the storyline though... Is the coach/Lance Armstrong supposed to be evil? Or the unknown?

| That was cool, but it also shows how dopey fencers look in all white. Now, if they had been waring some foil lames they would have looked much better. Fencing really needs to start adding more color and just general stuff to the uniforms to look better, otherwise we'll always look like dorks.

| Wow, that IS awesome!!
Go sotx fencers 
I haven't seen James in a while, even though I used to fence with him. I'll have to tell him that was pretty spiffy.
