Subject: Anybody know the name of this video...
Hello,
I'm looking for the name of a band and the song related to this video:
The video starts with a band consisting of dinosaurs (band members in suits, of course..) playing on an industrial terrain. The band gets a warning from one or two police officers they shouldn't play there. At the end of the video the police car drives off and one of the bandmembers/dinosaurs sprays a line of graffiti on the back of the police car.
I know this video is eighties as I can hardly remember any details and I guess I only saw this video once.

I slept on this last night and I believe it was a remake of Del Shannon's Runaway. I have no idea who did it...but for some reason I'm thinking it was a soap opera star? Couldn't find it anywhere on the net at all. But the search isn't over! Hope this helps!

If it was 'Runaway' then it was by a rock drummer called Luis Cardenas.I've actually got the record somewhere!Strangely enough he was also in the guiness book of records at the time for having the largest drumkit in the world!?!

GEEZ!! I spent my entire lunch hour at work trying to find that on the net. Couldn't find anything anywhere! All I could find was the Bon Jovi song from their 1st album (which rules by the way) and Run, Runaway by Slade.
I remember seeing the video in discussion on Nick Rocks on Nickelodeon. Anybody else remember that show?

Thanks everyone. It definitely was this video. For some reason I always kinda thought I had dreamt this video :)
And the story of the largest drum kit works out to, as it was a Tyrannosaur Rex in the video at the drums (one of the most fearsome dinosaurs ever around :)
