Last year, rock veterans the Afghan Whigs reissued their classic Gentlemen at 21 LP, also managing to crank out a new album with Do to the Beast. Revisiting the latter, they've shared a new video for album track "The Lottery."

Using a GoPro camera, the band have captured their monitor engineer as he dances his heart out to the group while they perform. It's really quite hilarious to watch.

Of the video, Greg Dulli shared the following statement:

Meet Ryan O'Hara, our monitor engineer and cougar magnet. He wakes up everyday with a smile on his face and something positive to share with you. Every night during the gig he performs a parallel show behind the board and it's phenomenal to watch. Occasionally, I'll forget to sing because I'm watching him turn into Bez from Happy Mondays. But that's rock and roll for you. It keeps you young.

Watch the video for "The Lottery" below.
