When Bear Hands played Brooklyn, N.Y.'s Rumpus Room earlier this year, it seems the band was causing a bit of a ruckus as well as the expected rumpus. Thankfully, a video crew was there to capture it all. As a matter of fact, Bear Hand's own Ted Feldman served as the director.

"The night started getting hazy just as the guests started arriving so I think I tried to get around and say all the important hellos before I was in full on staggering zombie mode," frontman Dylan Rau tells Spinner. "I fled the building upon the final tune ('What a Drag,' I think) and vomited by myself for a while under the BQE. Upon seeing the final product, I think it went over pretty OK. I might not have worn that Marlins hat, and maybe I should have asked for some more vocal in the monitors ... but it's only rock 'n' roll, right?"

Right. While the band is currently busy touring with Passion Pit, they plan to release the live tracks from that wild and crazy night at the Rumpus Room as a download later this month. The songs will also all appear on Bear Hands' studio debut but, in the meantime, check out the 'Rumpus Session' video below.
