welcome everyone out of the woo here say
0:03
hello to me and to Super Bucky the
0:06
T-shirt Edition that I actually picked
0:09
up when I was going through Texas a
0:11
while back and I had my flipflop song
0:13
and I stepped in bies dung if you will
0:18
and I trous it through the store and I
0:19
slid it by a security officer some
0:23
people say that is probably one of their
0:25
favorite daily woo Vlogs what do you
0:28
think about that it's Friday
0:30
and I am going to a convention at the
0:32
Anaheim Convention Center as soon as
0:35
this Vlog is uploaded and as soon as I
0:37
get some caffeinated beverages in the
0:38
form of coffee into my torso and into my
0:41
nether regions of my throat and down
0:43
into the G area I think the gullet might
0:46
be your head the gullet head and torso
0:50
area he needs some coffee too as you
0:53
little do you know that beavers in the
0:56
form of Bucky beavers they're the form
0:58
of a chain of gas stations in Texas only
1:02
specifically only in Texas Only You
1:04
Texans or those who travel through Texas
1:07

1:10
that fantastic the daily woo Vlog which
1:13
I'm curious does anyone know the number
1:15
what day was that that I went to Bucky
1:17
and stepped in
1:20
Buy's feal
1:22
matter it's Friday TGF it's my second
1:25
channel daily blog channel it's the
1:27
daily woo I will be at WonderCon here in
1:29
Anaheim
1:30
just Google WonderCon I don't think it's
1:32
WonderCon decom I think that's taken by
1:34
someone else but if you go to San Diego
1:36
ComicCon Comic-Con in general I think
1:39
also has something in New York but the
1:41
Comic-Con corporation started a
1:44
secondary quote unquote smaller
1:46
convention and I use that term lightly
1:48
because today tomorrow and Sunday it is
1:51
going on here in Southern California it
1:53
is a massive conglomeration of nerdery
1:56
comic book goodness people dressed up in
1:59
Cosplay and I love that stuff so I have
2:01
decided to take my microphone I'm
2:03
meeting up with my friend Jeff heimbuck
2:04
who actually is going to be there the
2:05
whole weekend I will only be there today
2:08
today is not sold out yet tomorrow is
2:10
sold out that's why I chose the option
2:13
of actually going today instead of
2:14
tomorrow I bought my tickets online so
2:16
I'm going to have my Canon T3i DSLR
2:20
hopefully Jeff heimbuck is going to be
2:22
helping me film a little bit I'll have
2:24
my microphone I will be interviewing
2:26
people just like I have in the past when
2:27
I did the convention last week when I
2:30
went to monster paloa but this time I
2:32
will be interviewing
2:34
random ComicCon SL WonderCon the lower
2:39
smaller quote unquote version of
2:41
ComicCon attendees so I don't know how
2:44
many monsters are going to be there
2:46
we're probably going to see some
2:47
superheroes that's why I'm wearing the
2:49
T-shirt all right enough of that I've
2:50
talked too long I've done the intro too
2:52
long have I done the intro it's my
2:54
second channel daily blog channel it's
2:55
the
2:56
daily
2:58
woo I want to talk talk to you a little
3:00
bit about punk rock what is punk rock
3:03
when people think of punk rock they
3:04
think of a guy with a mohawk running
3:07
around walking around town flipping off
3:10
the middle finger to people everywhere
3:12
with a can of spray paint spray painting
3:15
walls desecrating what is around him or
3:18
you think of someone who has 5,000
3:21
piercings all in their face and while
3:24
that is a form of punk rockness if you
3:27
will because punk rock in general means
3:30
basically that you honestly do not give
3:34
a crud about what anyone else really
3:36
thinks the general population think so
3:39
you are kind of the minority when it
3:41
comes to the mindset dress code
3:44
hairstyles Etc punk rock also means a
3:48
form of music that started way back in I
3:51
think in the 70s mid '70s late '70s
3:54
bands like the Sex Pistols bands like
3:57
the Ramones The Clash all the these
4:00
bands brought punk rock into the
4:02
Forefront granted those bands did not
4:04
start around those years but they came a
4:06
little bit afterwards and they pushed
4:08
themselves forward and brought the term
4:10
punk rock not really into the mainstream
4:13
so much really the mainstream the
4:15
general population heard the term punk
4:17
rock when Green Day the album dookie in
4:20
1994 Broke Free and then The Offspring
4:23
Smash in 94 broke up and then we have
4:25
other bands like rancid and all these
4:27
other bands I myself have a different
4:30
form of what punk rock means to me so I
4:34
want to express to you what does punk
4:36
rock mean to me what is my punk rock
4:40
mentality if you will it is not about
4:43
hairstyles it is not about piercings it
4:45
is not about what bands I listen to I've
4:48
listened to a lot of punk rock bands in
4:50
my day in fact I was lucky enough to
4:53
play in one of my favorite punk rock
4:54
bands I was a huge fan of this band in
4:57
the early '90s probably from '94 to 98
5:00
those four years I was really into a
5:02
band by the name of Guttermouth that
5:04
actually was from Southern California
5:05
and I had the opportunity to be in that
5:07
band for a few years I did five full
5:11
tours with him through the us into
5:13
Canada down into Mexico as well as I
5:16
also started a couple punk rock bands
5:18
out in Florida the most popular of those
5:21
bands were bands by the name of Alias
5:23
Clark that I was in with my friend Jim
5:25
who now lives actually out in Ohio and
5:29
he is in a called red hot Rebellion just
5:31
look up red hot Rebellion online you can
5:34
find Jim there he was actually the
5:35
singer in Alias Clark after Alias Clark
5:38
broke up I started a band by the name of
5:40
10 new toes so we used the terminology
5:43
10 new toes TNT and we became TNT we
5:47
changed her name later to the new threat
5:51
we toured with a bunch of bands all
5:52
around the country and then I became
5:54
friends with the band from here
5:56
Guttermouth ended up becoming part of
5:59
Guttermouth and good friends with the
6:01
band Guttermouth so Ive played with a
6:03
gazillion bands played a ton of shows I
6:05
played bass guitar I have pretty much
6:08
kind of put the band aspect on the
6:13
outskirts of my
6:14
priorities that era of my life I have
6:17
kind of moved on with but punk rock is
6:20
the reason I'm going to tell you this
6:22
now punk rock is the reason
6:25
99.9% of you are watching this Vlog at
6:28
this moment you might be saying to
6:30
yourself Adam I don't listen to punk
6:32
rock I cannot stand the screaming music
6:34
I cannot stand the distorted guitars I
6:37
cannot stand that insanely loud drum
6:40
beat and the yelling and when I go to a
6:42
punk rock show I cannot tolerate the
6:45
Slam Dancing that goes around the
6:47
sweating that everyone is doing well it
6:49
is not about that that I am referring to
6:52
the reason I say punk rock is the reason
6:54
you are watching this video is because
6:56
of a punk rock mentality not punk rock
7:00
mentality where you flip the middle
7:02
finger to someone you yell a profanity
7:04
to them you throw eggs at them or you
7:06
roll their house with toilet paper
7:09
nothing of that faction but basically a
7:12
positive attitude of punk rock when I
7:15
started listening to punk rock in the
7:16
early '90s it was all kind of about that
7:19
it taught me basically that I needed to
7:21
do what I wanted to do I needed to stand
7:24
up for myself and even though everyone
7:26
else might not be on the same page that
7:28
I am with my passions with my desires
7:30
what I wanted to do that did not matter
7:32
you can stand on your own or with a very
7:35
core group of other friends and you can
7:37
actually make what you want to happen
7:40
come into fruition come into a positive
7:43
aspect and that actually the positive
7:44
thing I'm referring to came a little bit
7:46
later into the mid to late 90s I got
7:49
into an era a section of Music a section
7:53
of punk rock that was called like
7:55
straight edge hardcore bands positive
7:57
straight edge hardcore bands the purpose
7:59
of straight edge or people who do not do
8:01
drugs do not drink and I really latched
8:03
on to that because I have never really
8:05
been much into the drug or drinking
8:07
scene at all so I really fell into this
8:10
whole straight edge movement even though
8:12
I do not document or call myself
8:15
straight edge I still hold those
8:18
passions and those desires and those
8:19
principles in my heart even to this day
8:22
but we're not talking about everything I
8:24
have described so far the punk rock
8:27
mentality when it comes to me
8:30
what does that mean when I toured
8:32
constantly around the United States I
8:34
realized that I did what 1% of 1% of 1%
8:40
of the population what is that
8:42
terminology even
8:44
0.1% of the rest of the world do most
8:48
other people are going to work most
8:50
other people are going to school most
8:52
other people are at home taking care of
8:55
their children taking care of their
8:56
family taking care of their parents
8:58
doing whatever else else I was on a
9:01
little bit different wavelength by being
9:03
in a van traveling around strapping on a
9:05
bass guitar and singing these ridiculous
9:08
songs to people so I thought to myself I
9:12
could probably do that on my own agenda
9:16
and actually travel in a van but instead
9:19
of having that van full of people I can
9:21
have it full of one person me and an air
9:25
mattress and a video camera and I can
9:28
actually document positive historical
9:31
awesome places all across the Great USFA
9:35
and bring them into people's homes by
9:37
putting them on YouTube I did not
9:38
realize that it was going to turn or
9:41
blossom into what it is today the Adam
9:43
the woo Channel youtube/ Adam the woo
9:45
was the first channel and then this
9:47
youtubethe daily woo came along a little
9:50
bit later I had no idea that people were
9:52
going to latch on to what I was doing
9:54
nor did I honestly even care at that
9:57
particular time because of my punk rock
10:00
mentality all I wanted to do is what
10:02
made me happy and I wanted to document
10:06
things that way when I was older in life
10:07
I could look back at myself and what I
10:09
have done and actually say heck it I
10:12
have actually done what I wanted to do
10:14
not what the rest of the world wanted me
10:16
to do the punk rock
10:19
mentality so that's pretty much it I
10:21
started traveling lived in my van for
10:24
about 3 years now I have a place here in
10:26
Orange County which is very ironic
10:28
because a lot of those original punk
10:30
bands I listened to in the early '90s
10:31
actually came from California came from
10:34
Orange County California so that is a
10:37
very interesting tie-in to that I have
10:39
not been to a show a concert in quite
10:42
some time after touring with Guttermouth
10:44
and playing with a million bands making
10:45
a lot of close friends in those punk
10:49
rock touring days I've kind of been on
10:52
the down low when it comes to going to
10:53
shows com going to concerts the Etc in
10:57
that Avenue so now I'm just conscious
10:59
ating on videos enjoying a breath of
11:01
fresh
11:03
air life is good everything is good but
11:06
it all stemmed from my punk rock
11:09
mentality I am talking so quick and so
11:12
passionately I need to clear my throat
11:14
I'm probably yelling quite a bit very
11:16
passionate about this subject I'm
11:18
passionate about everyone finding their
11:20
punk rock mentality you do not have to
11:22
bleach your hair you do not have to
11:24
pierce your eyebrow all you have to do
11:27
is give the proverbial middle finger to
11:30
the rest of the world I know that sounds
11:32
very crazy and what does that mean it
11:34
means saying the FW to society if you
11:37
will just because everyone does not
11:39
agree with what you are doing does not
11:42
mean that it is incorrect that it is
11:44
wrong or that is something you should
11:46
not be doing make your own decisions and
11:48
if you feel passionate about something
11:50
whether it being in a band whether it
11:52
doing artwork whether it be doodling or
11:54
drawing whether it be working with
11:56
people whether it be putting your
11:58
positive passions out there in the world
12:01
just do it just like Nike says I don't
12:03
want to bring up Nike because Nike is
12:05
about as far from punk rock as we can
12:07
think however just do it get off your
12:10
butt stand up get out in the world make
12:13
your passions and your dreams and your
12:15
hopes and your aspirations of reality
12:17
find your punk rock mentality that's all
12:21
bye
