Conversations With the Community

Leave your honest opinions, please. And for the recorded, I'm leaning toward the idea of talking with Patrons first (should there be any interested in doing this)

Reacting to 'After the Storm' and 'Baby Got Back'

Patrons get to see both videos. For YouTube, we're cutting out the 'After the Storm' reaction as neither of us found it to be that silly. Enjoy!

Special Premeire at 4PM (PST) today

Come check out my reaction to a short EP from an artist hailing from the DC area. He and myself will both be in the chat when the video goes live, so please feel free to say hello and interact. My reaction to Tupac's "Me Against the World" will drop immediately after 🤘

Additional Thoughts (and others)

I'm uploading my Additional Thoughts video for Illmatic to YouTube now, and it occurred to me that I could post these videos here as well. But how much do you guys care? Should I post to both sites? Does posting here make you feel like you have a better chance to speak to me directly? Should all videos posted to YouTube be posted here as well? Does it matter?

Rocker (and son!) react to Death Grips smashing the Mac

Just a quick video. You guys get it first since you've been so awesome about supporting the channel. I'll upload to YouTube as well, but I worry about it getting blocked. I've been hesitant to do reactions to live shows and music videos since those tend to get blocked, requiring blurring of the video, etc. But I'm thinking if the mood strikes me, I'll start tossing some live reactions up here for you wonderful Patrons.

Safe travels to those hitting the road for the holidays!

Responding To Comments (Poll)

I love replying to comments and messages that people leave. It's one of my goals, though I know everyone understands I can't get to everything. But I'm also curious about how much it matters to you, especially patrons who have kicked in a couple bucks to enjoy a more intimate (oh my) experience.

So, how much does my responding to messages and comments mean to you?

I can't believe there are already over 200 of you awesome people here. Anyway...

I still work full-time, 40hrs a week. Wife, son, personal life, so on. I know you respect that. All of you have been incredible so far. But I wanted everyone to know that things will be pretty quiet around here during the work week. I'll check messages and comments when I can. It's just one of those things.

Thank you all again for the support 🤘

If you're in, I'm in

Good morning, wonderful peoples:

As of this writing, 67 of you have agreed to support me and my channel and this wonderful musical journey I'm on. While I'm not quite in retirement territory yet, I'm honestly surprised to see these numbers climbing the way they are (from 30-ish to 60-ish in a day). And this is with my totally botching the Patreon launch and not actively promoting it until it gets straightened out. That means many of you actively sought this page out to sign up. You put ...

Good News, Bad News

My edited version of 'Late Registration' got blocked on YouTube (bad news).

Good news... the file is just small enough that I can upload it to Vimeo and be just under my 20gb weekly limit :)

So y'all get to see it first, which makes me very happy. It's still the edited version, but at least you get a perk for dealing with this mess of a launch. Posting this and beginning the upload of Late Registration!

Post below if you feel Patrons should be first to see new reactions

I just finished my 'Late Registration' recording and have started uploading it to YouTube. It just occurred to me that you guys should probably see it first, right? As in, I upload to Vimeo first, link it here, then YouTube.

Leave a comment if you agree. It makes sense to me.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to upload the full version here immediately. My Vimeo is capped at 20gb a week, and that file is 13.3gb. After uploading some of the other videos last night, I only have about 6...
