  1. Flat Earth Society should be spectacular in the late night tent (music starts at 40 sec).
  2. joe grass was a huge treat when he joined Barr Brothers on a tour that brought them to Gatineau a couple of years ago. His pedal steel work was mesmerizing. I couldn't stop watching him.
  3. stickied due to this rousing discussion.
  4. I see the problem since a couple speakers are difficult to understand in real time. Most speakers are very easy to understand in the interviews. Like what would the threshold be for embedding subtitles? Is it reasonable to only subtitle some of the dialog some of the time? I find that despite understanding, I am drawn to the subtitles even though they aren't necessary. Instead of a subtitle path due to terminology, perhaps a popup displaying a definition of 'kwacha' or even edit in a short sequence of the regional currency of course the latter might be difficult to inject. Btw, great choice on the presenter/host. You are perfect.
  5. lol. yeah, i thought that initially but it lives at the top on its own. Stickies are mostly meant for a call to action. It's easy to bump by watching and commenting. I really liked the story discovery when Todd breaks a guitar string and they have to go get a new one. Also during the ending titles, the footage of asking locals if they'd heard of the Beatles. Paul McCartney should see this! Time for a concert in Zambia Macca.
  6. Initially, I am only interested in seeing Lake Street Dive and Plants and Animals. Last year was so stacked right from the first announcement.
  7. This reminds me of that Happy Days episode where they had a dance marathon and fonzi almost lost. http://youtu.be/3gvusTsmW9A
  8. I've still got the final 15 minutes to watch and still adore it. Since you're craving suggestions: 1. An opportunity to smooth out the viewing experience might be to shorten the 5 second blackout during transitions. Is there a reason for those in this phase? They are slightly disruptive. Maybe even remove them and use a basic transition from the closing bumper sequence into the next segment. 2. White text for subtitles is hard to read in about half of the scenes where they appear. Is it possible to add a darkened slightly opaque rectangular background layer around the text? 3. Are the subtitles necessary? Since it's on YouTube, perhaps leave the subtitles out and make them an option via YouTube's subtitle functionality. I'm really fascinated by the b-roll footage, establishing shots, etc. Without those, this wouldn't feel the same way. I don't even comprehend how you would plan out or think of something like "get out of the car and film me talking to the guy selling sim cards". So awesome.
  9. well how about that? reading does payoff.
  10. This would probably be a great candidate for a live stream on YouTube, Twitch or Periscope.
  11. I was too tired to watch a whole anything last night. I watched the first 11 and was pretty hooked right away, AND learning. Went to resume in bed but my eyes failed. It reminds me of watching Bourdain touring and discussing regional cuisine while featuring one particular chef. However, Bourdain gets fucking wasted. There's a short snippet of Todd jamming with the group that I love. The musicians are great. I hope there is more of that. I'll find out as I finish it. This is highly impressive.
  12. awesome. love the intro sequence!
  13. Going. Venue looks super swell. Really, it's just an excuse to go to montreal and eat at Kazu
  14. awesome. I had no idea that you had a gopro. What other hijinks will you be up to?
  15. Just got a bands in town email. Such accurate data .
  16. cool! that's like an upgrade from the last boat too!
  17. I'm turning it back on then.
  18. bouche

  19. It's only got room for 5 people at a time. Need to pay more licensing to make the room bigger. I think it would be handy for a couch tour show.
  20. I found a way to turn off AJAX pagination so paging on those large threads should be fine now. Give 'er a try.
