“I don’t poach gigs” man this dude bleeds integrity, respect and competence. What a super cool interview. 🤘🇺🇸🔥
Best in the business that Katfish! A total class act all around.
More of this sort of thing!
Abel is the man. I use to play in a band with him. He was one of the best drummers I've jammed with. He left us for MIT. A s s h a t
Really dug this interview Bobby. Haha , " Abel's down like four flat tires ". Love it !! Abel's as cool as a cucumber. That's right!! Keep 'em coming bro. This is tha shit !!
Awesome as always
Love this. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This whole Thing obviously was meant to be for all involved you can tell you all are more like a big family then anything . Thanks for sharing this with us all Bobby!
Great interview! Keep em coming. I’m a Crew From Hell fan! 🤘🏻
I was working as a local stagehand for Hellfest (France) 2016 on Mainstage 02 where Korn was headlining on one day, and i was trying to observe and learn and geek out from what i was seeing in front of me : how the bands' techs worked, etc.
I remember Abel and Ray being super nice (IIRR i got to see the show from sidestage and be real close to the drums) and thinking to myself how glad and lucky i was to be here.
Also : amazing chat here, and amazing story Abel has. Working as a tech (TM, stagehand, FOH, carpenter, ...) but being late to the game and sometimes very green for some gigs but also very passionate and always trying to do my best, I relate to so many things Abel said here !
I'm glad you got to see Abel in action!!!
He's Tops!!
Great interview & videos, and hello from Northern Ireland 🤘
Don't know Abel personnaly, but all I can say is (and of course it involves FOH etc as well) : Charlie's drums sound awesome on that gig !!!! (and so did Ray's drums in Korn!).
P.S : Mike Deleon is rippin' on I'm Broken by the way ! Very spot-on on the solo !
Cool and interesting interview Bobby ! I'm always intrigued by crew members back stories and how they ends up there !
Egos are all over in the production world!!!
Keep these interviews going. This was fantastic!
Awesome vid. I've been following Abel since the Korn days.
That was great hearing the back story like that. Thanks for bringing it to us Bobby. Look forward to more.
I have more respect for Abel now then before. He stood up. Against a toxic environment. I had to deal with a band. Here in KC. When I was working at a small venue. I was helping out. Stage hand. And pretty much the singer was the one talking stuff to me and my friend. I just got time of him. I just told the rest of the band let's handle it this. After the show. We had a talk about it. Nothing ever happened. But i told my boss don't booked these guys. Again after the show
Can’t wait for the rest Bobby!! Awesome interviews!!
Thanks for keeping the videos coming Bobby. Just caught your Down gig for the fire benefit....that shit was killer man, and you sounded fucking great!!! Stay safe and rock on bro!!!........peace.
Love this Crew From Hell! Getcha pull 🍻 333!
Thanks for filming these. Very cool content. Hope you will interview the other guys also and tell your story. Im curious to hear.
+1
Good on ya Bob
Right on !
Would be AWESOME if you can record a chat with Kate. She's behind so much awesome stuff and gets so little recognition from the wider audience and she really deserves a moment in the spotlight.
Kate is Definitely up for an Interview!!
Fun listen!!! And so cool, down to earth people Y'All are!
Attila!!! Thanks for watching!!
@@BobbyLandgraf Of course my man! Keep em coming! \m/
Great interview brother! Abel is the real deal; core memories of rocking out to Kiss records when we were kids. Abel was always “Peter Criss on the drums” 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Well said!
Cool video
Thanks for all the video work and tech knowledge you share of your world!
More to come!
Oh I had to learn the hard way the money…can often not be worth it….
Interview with the LD , dimmertechs etc would be sweet as fuck!
I know mike D. I met him last year with soulfly.
Tell them about the stories of f.t.
Man, thats really cool. Like you said. Keep your cool. It could be overwhelming to a lesser cat.
It really is!
Dude knows his shit & doesn't take any, cheers.
Sick drummer, but better human. My dude!
where can we get one of those DIMEBAG shirts??
Dimebag Hardware
Do you guys have any advice? I want to go on the road. I really don't know anything about tech stuff. But I usually help loading and back line sometimes. I'm 43 years old. I started stage hand about 8 years ago. I have met so many bands. I recently started hanging out after shows meeting crew members at bigger shows. That's how I met Abel here in KC in 2022. Also met a few others. I have also did a few shows out of town. Helping my pals in soulfly and cavaliera bros.
If you want it it's out there. You have to go get it because it usually doesn't come looking. Talk to folks that have the gigs you want and offer to shadow them and learn from them. That can turn in to you getting a call to fill in for said person and the doors are open.!!!
@@BobbyLandgraf cool. Thanks Bobby
@@BobbyLandgraf last year I helped a band for a few shows. Soulfly and cavaliera bros. That's how I met Mike DeLeon. Through soulfly crew. I already had met them. Here in KC. In 2017. I talked to a few of my friends. From static x and sevendust crew. Last year..I'll be going on the Lamb of God cruise. I hope to see stage stuff.
- Learn as much as you can on your own, from home (watch vlogs, read books, forum posts, listen to podcasts, etc), at shows (as an audience member or when you're working there), etc
- Be nice and stay professional (don't fanboy too much, stay in your place)
- Ask questions, put the word out there, while being honest about where you're at (your message above is exactly that) and offer to help (small responsabilities for bigger stuff, bigger responsabilities for small stuff (like small local bands, small local venues)
- Be willing to take many different type of gigs (tour and/or local venue or fest or production company, purely non technical or technical, driver, tour manager, guitar/drum tech, stagehand, carpenter, etc), as long as you feel like you're up to it and your employer knows your skills level and is ok with it. You will learn from all of them, get to meet people, network, and this is how you'll get better and get more opportunities, and then get even better and get more opportunities.
- Be patient, it can take time
You're 43 but if you're passionate and have the right mindset and work hard you'll get there.
Speaking from a 39 y.o who took the plunge 8 years ago and never looked back, and still learning and getting better and not where i wanna be (yet) but getting there slowly but surely.
@@djabthrash thanks for the advice. I'm welling to learn stuff. When I started I was a fanboy. Some what. But as I got more into it. Helping bands. I just was like the bands are regular people. A few of my friends are in bands and work as techs. Tour mangers etc. Working shows has open doors. For me at shows. I was actually reached out from a friend. He had a gig. For merch person. I had to turn it down. They wanted an experience person. I didn't have any experience at it. I have offered bands help. Nothing yet. But I did ask a few of my friends. About what to do. They told me same thing you mentioned. Ask questions watch them. Witch I have been doing. I've been going out of town. To see if I can help. I've gotten lucky to help my idols. Last year I got contacted with a vocalist and now some what friend. He tried helping with some advice. Big thanks for every one on here reaching out. Safe travels. Hopefully I'll see you at a show
Sorry R treated Abel poorly.
I'm unsure if you mean RM but it's a bit shitty if it's him as he started his career as a bartender and you'd think he would be a little nicer to others.
@@brodeo449 I can’t say who it is. As it’s not my business but I’ve been following Abel for years. He’s posted bout but it’s been years. He’s worked with two class acts in ten years.
If you see Bob, buy him a beer & burger, he’s pretty cool and down to Earth. That’s pretty damn cool to B!!!
Where’s Vinnie Paul’s tech Kat at these days???
In assume he's in the DFW area still. He's not out with us.
Abelllll 🥁 miss you and so happy for you to be out there w charlie and the entire crew is just awesome vibes - don’t forget the little peeps - you’re my favorite tech hands down - ✊🏽🫶🏽 Hi Bobby
Hello from Bobby!!!
@@BobbyLandgraf ❤ Hiiii 👋🏽
I tried getting into sports broadcasting TV production work and all the guys in the TV production treated me the same way as Abel. They would mess with me and try and get me in trouble or never tell me it’s lunch time. All these little things to make uncomfortable to work around them!
It's a tough biz. It's hard to keep love for the game when you're getting harassed. Any type will bring you down. Guess our love for the game persevered............
Don't make a rule of one bad context you've met.
I do many different types of gigs and work with many different teams and sometimes it's miserable, sometimes it's awesome, and it can vary depending on people, context, etc.
