From the Raconteurs mailing list:
The Raconteurs have teamed up with Paul Ruebens, best known for his work as Pee Wee Herman, in a brand new video for their single, “Steady, As She Goes.” In this video, each band member plays an imaginative speed-racing hero in an old-fashioned soap box race, following the heroes on their cut-throat chase for first place. Ruebens plays an unscrupulous pit boss, stooping to low levels to ensure a win for his racer.
The video will premiere exclusively on Yahoo! Music on Monday, June 19th. You can also catch a debut live performance of “Steady, As She Goes” and an interview with The Raconteurs on Live @ Y! Music beginning today, Monday, June 12th, recorded live at Y! music studios last week.
UPDATE. Rayna emailed me the link last night:

I love how determined certain boys are at soap-box racing.
Go Little Jack! Look out for the quiet ones: they’ll get ya every time.
i soo didnt even recognize peewee until he made the face after he spit the dart, aww peewee, i mean paul reubens
that copper kid sure has one sweet ride
Brendan should wear overalls all the time.
Does anyone else find it semi-disturbing that after being caught spanking it in a movie theater, Reubens is in a kiddie-themed music video? Maybe that’s what they intended. Spooky.
he’s playing the baddie, if it matters.
its fantastic! better than the last one. i wonder if they re-made it to try to get it more airplay or if they just love peewee?
who doesnt love peewee!?
to little jack’s mechanic/intern with the black dress and pearls….why helllllooo.
ok so when is jack gonna just give in to baldness and quit hiding his dome-I love in the end how his hair is blowing but not by his temples-where ik is glued down to hide his dissapearing hair!
I like it. You should check out the new YYY video for Turn Into, it’s purty!

Brendan’s emaciated frame is almost as disturbing as big Jack’s facial hair.
