Faker's Hurricane Music Video

As mentioned on the previous page, the band Faker shot the music video for their song Hurricane in the State Library's La Trobe Reading Room. It's very unusual that a strict library like this would let a band jump on all of its original furniture, when neither food nor drinks (excluding water) are permitted inside the building. Watch the video clip below and we're sure you'll be just as surprised as we were. However, this music video does give those who have never visited the Library an insight of the reading room's true beauty and the unusual lighting used in the clip gives us a different angle on the room that in normal daylight we wouldn't get to experience. We hope you enjoy watching!
