  • The Stage hand Never gets celebrated - I mean who wants to work the load in for their own party?
    This is a tribute to the worlds third oldes profession. I am resposnible for the words, Paul Benoit for the music. The videos are a combination of Public Domain Found Footage, some of my own, and some found, and used with permission, and some I never heard back from but made the educated opinion that they wouldn't mind... I have credited all of the found footage. Please enjoy - and share - esp if you know someone in production.

    Stagehands never die.
    They just fade out on a 3 count.

    This video came to me 24 hours after I found out that (because of my retirement and the fact that I moved 2500 miles from UC Berkeley) that I'd just missed the annual Crew Barbecue with the cast and office staff of the Alvin Ailey Dance Company. The combination of these two events are close, very close to returning me to work...Not, but close !

    Howdy Ho! Hey Chris - I'm having great fun feeding your tunes to a website of scientists from all over the planet out of the UK I haunt. Very well recieved! It helps dispell some common myths about what America thinks.

    If the producers of this video were aiming at honoring stage hands, why did they zoom through the credits so fast?

    • @ChrisChandler
      @ChrisChandler  7 лет назад +1

      Excellent point... I think i just wanted to be on record for what I used without making a deal about it.

  • @stevebailey7633
    @stevebailey7633 5 месяцев назад +1

    Them ain’t stagehands in the beginning. Them is scenics. Dont ever be calling them stagehands. They is art-teests. And I did this for 49 years. A good career.
