On the heels of the Letterman love, “Fitz And Dizzyspells” gets itself a charming little Digitelio-directed video with plenty of Chi-city bona fides. That is to say: lots of snow, scenes shot at the Hideout, a throng of paraders from the Mucca Pazza marching band, and a guy in a banana suit (Chicago is famous for all the banana suit guys)(no it’s not). The clip opens with a couple of cute and intelligent looking girls unable to resist the sight of Andrew’s flaming arrow, which is what they call verisimilitude.
