Leary had never used drugs, but a friend recommended the article to him, and Leary eventually traveled to Mexico to take mushrooms.

...returned to the mundane. Director Matt McCormick casts the band as orange-jumpsuited hoodlums who hatch a plot of petty theft. Lead singer, songwriter, and tactician James Mercer directs the bandits as they distract car salesmen and steal the balloons attached to every car on the lot. The tune itself isn’t earth-shatteringly original, but it’s the sort of bouncy song that makes you want to be five years old again, dancing around in the living room with your dad.
