When I was an awkward and shy teenager growing up in the 70s music helped me through some tricky times but also helped me find life long friends and a sense of purpose. All these years later music is still creating real friendships but now on a global scale. I feel honoured to be part of this. It’s just fantastic being amongst likeminded people who love music, CDs, Vinyl and discovering new stuff! Thank you - Phil
Keep spinning Phil.
I'm a recent convert to your channel Phil and I can identify with the awkward and shy bit, music really saved me as a teenager of that I have no doubt
@@paulmcgeehan8724thank you :)
Thanks for being here Phil.
I found Now Spinning Magazine because I had just purchased The Sensational Alex Harvey Band's 5cd box set (=their first five albums), and something like a week later you reviewed some version of SAHB's Next on the channel. I had probably searched for a bunch of SAHB's live performances on YT, and thus that video also popped up. I don't think I commented, but still remember it as a nice coincidence.
Interesting backround info, Phil. Music has certainly been a savior in my life too.
I'll probably be fast asleep when this debuts. But I hope you all enjoy this little peek behind the curtain.
you're the best Jamie
We are….
Definitely Jamie! This was great to hear what you all had to say about the realities of RUclipsrs (the term you hate 😂). I also let Martin know the same and I was glad to hear he and Pete may increase their efforts on YT! I echo Pete, great work on the Review Crew!
When I discovered Sea of Tranquility during the early days of the pandemic, it made me listen to music differently. Then I join the Contrarian Patreon page and I get on panels. Then some of us reached out to each other on social media and became friends and everyone started their own channels. I have done shows with Grant, Jamie and even contributed to a book Martin wrote.
When I started doing shows on my own, it wasn’t going to be anything with any regularity until I started doing the W.A.S.P. series and even then I was ready to go out. I credit my co captain John the Music Nut for us to keep going because we developed such a great chemistry.
Do I see myself appearing on Sea of Tranquility? I would be honestly surprised for the invite. But I don’t expect it.
I enjoy the people that I have gelled with and it really is a wonderful thing to know that you meet people that if you grew up down the road from each other, you would be best buds.
Am I a tech person? Far from it. I don’t have fancy lighting or anything to see in my room. I have an old computer with Zoom. But if 520 people subscribe to my channel and seem to enjoy what I bring to the table, that’s awesome! I still find it hard to believe.
Great show guys!
As a regular viewer, it’s nice to hear Martin and Pete talking about how this is their new friend group. It comes across that you all not only love talking about the content, but also genuinely enjoy the good company. This video is also posted the same day Pete posted a short from Chris Alo’s backyard hanging with the crew.
Nice to hear all the creator’s perspectives. I’ll say from a viewers perspective “why do I do it, why do I spend so much time watching?” Because in SOT I found terrific, down to earth music camaraderie that I could never find to the degree I wanted in my “real life” friends. SOT was also a haven for me during Covid.
SOT got me thru some tough times during the pandemic. The sense of community is strong and I discovered the other channels as well. Thank you.👍
Love the part when you talked about paying cash to avoid a paper trail for the wife to follow. Glad to know I'm not the only one that does that. I also try to get my packages before she gets home. Doesn't always work.
The best with SoT is that you feel that Pete and all others on the show talk to us as we are sitting in the same room as them. I always feel like a part of the conversation.
I’m kind of a political nerd as well as a music fan. I have had to step away from politics recently because the stress and anxiety has been getting to me. I can’t tell you how much I value SoT.
During Covid is when I ran across SoT. I seen a couple other ranking channels and they just seemed kinda of boring. Something about SoT just grabbed me. When I commented and suggested you doing favorite bands A to Z and you actually did it and said this suggestion came from one of your viewers, even though you couldn’t remember my name, I thought that was pretty cool. I was like, this guy actually reads the comments. I felt like I found a home and made a new friend. Then really got to know the rest of the crew you have and I felt like I made new friends, even though I personally don’t know any of you. Then you started doing Monsters Den and that just added something else that I’m into. I’ve been watching every day for 4 yrs now. Sometimes I comment and add my rankings. Sometimes I just comment great show. Sometimes I don’t comment at all. I just watch and listen. I get in the chat room quite a bit at 9:00a.m. During my work break. One thing is I watch every day and always hit the like button. Bottom line is SoT feels like family and friends. I watch Contrarians quite a bit and occasionally watch guitar hack. Thank you Pete for all you do and big thank you to all on Monsters Den, Hudson Valley Squares, UK Connection, and all other guest that help make this channel the best damn channel on RUclips.
Couldn’t said it better myself. I just latched on 2.5 yrs but it feels like a buncha friends just hanging out enjoying the magic of music.
Grant is 100% correct. Friday at the Funhouse with Martin and Pete is handsdown the best music discussion program on youtube.
Great , great show. Looking forward to part 2. Thx to all 👍💯
Damn I missed this. Very interested to watch. Just got home. Missed class this morning too…slept til 9:30.
@@webbvandiver9139 / see you in am. No worries 👍💯
Around a year ago, your channel became a part of my daily routine. I’ve discovered so much great music. Thanks to all❤
I agree Pete: stay away from the click bait bullshit. I want honest dialogue about music and that is why I enjoy SOT, Now Spinning etc.
Pete nailed it about discovering his channel during COVID, it really did help me through a very dark time as I was a very social person before and it was a struggle without social interaction
Another mention has to go out to @NoLifeTilMetal and @ScottWaters who also has a great channel
Great show guys! Cheers
Interesting show guys ! I look forward to the sequel !😊
I started watching SOT whilst recovering from a knee operation back in 2023 & it’s now become very much a part of my daily routine. Whilst ‘In the prog seat’ is nearest to my personal taste, I’ve enjoyed most of the output & it’s also been responsible for introducing me to newer bands I would not otherwise have encountered & older bands I missed first time around. I’m 70 & whilst the 70’s is probably the time when I was most engaged with rock music I’ve continued to enjoy it both live & on record & CD. I love the discourse & camaraderie on the various shows . As a Brit the humour from Simon & Stephen on the UK Connection is particularly amusing especially when Pete is puzzled by an obscure to him UK reference. Todays ‘Creator’ vid was a really illuminating watch & I particularly resonated with the chat about your friends coming round to look at your album collection, something entirely lacking in my life now. It’s really great to see such enthusiasm on display, I hope future generations will get to enjoy ‘rock’ music as much as I have in over 60 years of listening.
Great show gents! My phrase has been for decades: "Not my cuppa..." for that I heard that I am not fond of. All of this evokes the "old record store hang out". Chatting about music both young and old.
It's such an awe-inspiring amount of work keeping Sea of Tranquility together, so it's great to here some more 'behind-the-scenes' stuff from Pete especially. I also loved hearing from Martin and Phil, my two favorite SoT guests. More Phil Aston on SoT, please!
You guys are making me think of the movie “ High Fidelity “ talking about how to organize your collection 😅.
Need a part two for Brendan, Davy, Brice, Keeler and Prog Corner guy. Also maybe a part 3 on the people who only appear on vids but wouldnt want to do YT themselves.
Also andy edwards him and pete have done shows together
He's a right wing loon these days. Wouldn't watch for Andy.
I would like to thank everyone for taking part in this video.
I really appreciate all the hard work and effort ye put in to all your shows
Thank You
👍👍
Martin's point about physical media collections is totally where I am. I've moved into the digital format and streaming and it's more convenient for my listening, organization and space issues. I moved along to using Roon and putting all my physical media into FLAC files. I do buy records but really very few now.
I agree with Grant. Pete and Martin have the best shows. Discoved them around Covid . Been watching for almost 5 yrs
Cause we all care for people that love music and being involved along with it a passion to share. Hopefully for some time.
As a longtime viewer of all your programming, let me express my gratitude for the content you guys provide. None of us has met (OK, I haven't met you), but we share a kinship of music and genuine passion for what we enjoy. Your comments about clickbait and negative content hit home, Pete, John and Phil, as episodes labeled as such turn me off. I prefer intelligent musical discussion among like-minded folks I respect and whose "company" (virtual, in this case) I truly enjoy. Also, I'm just one viewer, but seldom do I watch video with only one host or guest. I need two or more individuals to make these episodes worthwhile. The banter, humorous exchanges and insights offered by the "Holllywood Squares" or "Brady Bunch" formats are essentially viewing for me (i.e.: Hudson Valley Squares, etc.). Keep on cranking the content, guys. And don't despair, Pete: though your summer ratings may be low, my viewership remains constant year-round.
Great topic. Great panel. I'm grateful to have "found" all of you. Thanks, gents!
The financial aspect is intriguing - there are two UK 'RUclipsrs' I watch who say they are making a full time living from it (one assumes £25k), but whose channels are a lot smaller than SOT.
I would agree with those numbers, for me it is having several small revenue streams and not putting all your efforts into one platform.
@@NowSpinningMagazine Thanks Phil!
I have had my own channel for 10 years now and SOT was my inspiration for starting up my own review shows to talk about music that I enjoy listening like jazz and prog. What I love about SOT is everyone who appears is so passionate about what they listen to and it's always great to hear for example different thoughts on a certain album that might be very polarising. For me, I like creating content because it always gets people talking and it's nice to hear what everyone thinks, it would be really nice for me to have a few more people to work with to discuss music with. This was an excellent episode and loved hearing everyone's thoughts
We live in a great time for content. It truly is a community of like minded people! So much fun. Thank you all here for your hard work and bringing us consistent, quality videos!
I’ve been a huge fan of SOT for at least 15 years. First the web zine and then was thrilled to find the RUclips channel. As for Martin, I grew up a metal head in Toronto and was a teenager in the early mid 90’s. He has always been a huge part of our scene since I can remember. Years later (in 2000) I was playing bass in a band called Jaww and we used one of Martin’s paintings for our LifeTimeBomb album cover. I still very much enjoy his opinions and all of the SOT programming. Don’t ever change!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I will tune in for part 2. So much to cover. A great watch gents!
Enjoyed hearing you guys all talk about why you do this and how muchyou all personally enjoy doing it.
Watching your various channels over the last few years has helped me discover/re-discover so much music and has been an outlet for me to hear others discuss music I'm interested in when I don't have that same setting in my own social circles.
I have genuinely considered at times doing my own thing on here, but always come back to thinking that no-one probably wants to listen to what I think 😂
Keep up the quality videos on all of your channels!
Awesome episode as usual. Like many others, I found this page during covid, and this helped me a lot in those times. Also love all the other channels, The Contrarians, Martins History in 5 songs, Lair of Alchemist, Jamies FB-group, Grants channel and Phils channel. As a 53 year old , I've found enermous amounts of new/old bands and music, thanks to all these fine gentlemen. Never stop.
Anyone who enjoys music as much as we do is also a music critic and, therefore, enjoys deconstructing and analyzing it. SoT has also introduced me to a lot of great bands.
Thank you for that show. My first show of Sea of Tranquility was the History of Whitesnake 6 years ago and I did a follow up with Pete and Chris Alo History of Black Sabbath 1& 2 shows. I have been a fan ever since. One of the great features of SOT is the fact that a lot of the Show members are professional Rock journalist. I’m going to break down what I like about each member. Pete Pardo just has a fantastic ability to sell wholeheartedly whatever he’s talking about with passion. I really appreciate Grant Arthur’s approach at the graphic level on his shows. It really shows, and he is the top visual designer of any of the members. Then I really like about Phil Aston he sets up the visuals where he’s on one side of the screen, and on his table he has a little stand, where he can put the physical media and you can see it really clearly without any glare, a real simple process, it looks great. Jamie Lazlo has designed a giant HD television behind his set, which holds logos and topics which really is a great unique design that I haven’t seen on anybody RUclips show. Pete and Ken Golden on the Professors Pic have really cleaned up the look of their presentation with the sea of Tranquility logo on right and the giant album covers where you can really appreciate the album artwork. and see what Ken is trying to sell. Martin is probably one of the experts on this type of music and it’s just an amazing guest always. Lair of the Alchemist. has good strong audio, but nothing fancy on the visual realm and once again holding up physical media style. Rob Asante and Chris Cans goes the extra digital mile visually on H.V.S. show. In the Prague Seat Show, Chad has a really nice presentation and George does the little digital thumbnail album covers which looks really good. but his camera seems to be out of focus and his framing seems to be really weird where there’s a lot of ceiling in his video. 80% of these podcast shows where people are holding up album covers or CDs. I understand it’s necessary when you’re doing a variety of pics, but a lot of them really do don’t do justice to the cover or the product due to glare .A solution like with where Phil sits to the left side of the screen and has a little rack on the right side of the screen that holds his physical media with no glare and then talks about while the viewer is looking at the physical media it just as a nice clean presentation instead of waving media art around . I’m in the live entertainment business video Director for major rock bands. that’s why I’m so particular about visual presentations. Some simple blocking ,camera angles and lighting set up that are simple fixes could improve some visuals throughout Sea of Tranquillity shows. Thanks hope this is constructive criticism ,I am big fan of the channel.
Thank you for the feedback - Phil :)
Fantastic video. Yeh...we are just fans.
I started watching SOT when the lockdown happened, I did a search for Classic Rock Album reviews and up it popped. I've been watching regularly ever since. I started up my own Facebook Reviews page...it ain't nothing too serious...just music and films and I'm OK with that. I am lucky to have a local independent record shop in my town where I go and get my physical copies of music...I do stream as it's convenient so I guess I got the best of both. There are times when I think "man, I'd love to be a guest or contribute...say on The UK Connection" (I live in the UK) but as with most commenters...it's just a dream and that is fine. Keep up the great work guys.
I’m glad to have found SoT during covid and then the rest of you after that as it has helped get through those times but also made me aware there are still people out there as passionate about music as I am. I thank you all for all the effort you go to putting these shows together for us all. Look forward to the 2nd episode!
I first got into this after I had bought a few of Martin's, excellent, books. I clicked on the SoT pod and saw him and Pete talking and I thought this a good place for me. Watched it ever since - and bought a few more books from Martin (and no they didn't send me to sleep - as per your note Martin 😄) directly since. It also fits in with my completist type rabbit hole brain, not in terms of completist own every album, in terms of best efforts at knowledge completism ( impossible task - thus a worthwhile effort). I love lots of other types of music ( I still DJ out occasionally and it will be pop/disco/afrobeat pop etc - no rock at all as that doesn't fit the gig) so have many other music rabbit holes but this channel has educated me and I really enjoy it. I bought the Aviary album (UK press) the other day only because I saw it on one of these pods. The love of the music is the key - keep it up.
Agree in no point to being too negative - be happy that peeps are bothering to make the music and pods.
Great panel ❤ loved this discussion regarding all the points you guys brought out since I'm a music lover for over 50 years. I can say that that's the whole reason I started watching RUclips myself finding other people like me so to be part of the channel is an honor and a pleasure to know there's other people just like me.
The pandemic was the time I really started watching this channel and Pete seemed like the next music fan in my neighborhood. We share the same music tastes and it remained a great company as far as music is concerned. It is like a live magazine where you have the chance to share your thoughts, too. Through this channel I found out about Now Spinning, Grant's Warehouse and many others. I also found out that there are genres of our music that I could try. Of course this meant that my cd collection grew a lot, my wife could have divorced but thankfully she didn't hahaha. It is also great that from Greece I can learn how people think and experience this music. Anyway keep it up!
Guys, this was a brilliant insight into what makes all you tick Best thing for me was seeing how genuine every one of is in their love of music. Great stuff!
I go through the exact feeling Martin brought up about the tug of war concerning selling off my collection ( which isn’t nearly as big as his) and then wanting to get new recordings to add. Especially the last decade as there’s been some really good stuff!
Thank you all for all your hard work and putting out great content on all your channels. It is very much appreciated.
To talk about things you love (music, in this case). To share those things by talking about them. To have or create a community around those things. This is why I love SoT and some other channels. Connection, I guess. Humanity.
I've always thought of the music channels as fellow music lovers and not celebrities. Pete has a great community here and I've found bands/albums/knowledge from the comment section, he has the personality to bring people together to share their love for music. Found Grant several months ago, and what I enjoy about his channel is the listening parties, and different types of music not found or talked about on others. I skip around alot, as I enjoy all types of music.
Fantastic topic guys. As a SoT watcher, I find this topic highly interesting. Banger TV's Lock Horns episodes were awesome!! Physical music is the best: vinyl, CDs, even cassettes!!
Grant buddy. I could listen to you yap about music all day lol great show and insight from you all keep rocking!
I am so grateful for all you guys. I have found so many musicians and band I would for never known about. Not only am I a fan of these bands I have spent hundreds of dollars and glad to support these bans.
This was really interesting and I'm looking forward to part 2. I am not that familiar with John, Jamie and Phil's work, but I can say I appreciate Pete's articulate commentary and passion, Martin's insightful analysis, and Grant is always looking out for everyone and making sure people are having a good time.
It's a really good community and there is a lot of good chemistry. I've had a blast being on the Contrarians panel shows and been treated really well. For anyone on the fence, I'd recommend joining the patreon and getting a chance to talk music with these guys.
Pete said something that connected to developing thoughts I’m having. He talking about how people shouldn’t go on what he says, or something like that. Years ago I downloaded the first 2 Magma albums. I wasn’t crazy about them, so I haven’t been listening to them. I’ve heard Pete say he can’t stand the band. He doesn’t like the vocals. That backed up my own thoughts, supporting my feeling to avoid it. But in the past year & a half there has been a major change in me. I went from rejecting Jazz to opening up to Jazz, mainly Free Jazz (not so much with Fusion that Pete raves about). About a week ago I decided to listen to the first Magma album. I loved it. I thought, this is Free Jazz. This is what I want to listen to. To hell with what Pete says, it’s time for me to listen more to this group. Today I bought the third album… it was not like that first one. It was almost all singing. I didn’t mind it too much, but wasn’t crazy about it. I looked into things and I learnt that the first 2 albums are more Jazz, then the band took a new direction. So I’m not fully sure what’s going on. Maybe this almost constant singing on the third album is what the band continues doing on their following albums. Maybe this is what Pete talks about as being annoying. I might somewhat agree with him on that. Maybe the first 2 albums are the only ones I want to listen to. It’s too early for me to know where I stand on all this. I don’t know if I agree with Pete or not about Magma. I’ll have to listen more, form my own opinion. Do I agree with Pete about Magma or do I say to hell with what he thinks? I’m working on it.
Good discussion - I am a non-music youtuber so appreciate the struggles. One topic I would love to see covered is how you guys (especially Martin) do your research, the tools you use and how you record and store that research.
I'm grateful for all the work you put in! It's also great to feel part of a community.
This was an amazing episode, it’s awesome to just listen to you guys chat about such a range of different subjects and cool to get the inside info from the SOT family. Been a fan all the different shows for 4 years now. I’ve learned so much from the shows and discovered so much new music from you guys. Keep up the great work Pete and the crew! 😁
Fascinating watch gentleman. Thoroughly enjoyable watch. Good to see you Phil. As someone who fairly regularly falls asleep on the sofa and wakes up dressed with the TV on you might be interested to know Pete that 99% of the time I wake up to SOT and that’s nearly all the damned time.
The only thing I regret about this video is the 'like' I gave it does not register for all. Like so many others covid isolation propelled me to investigate entertainment options with YT being a major player. I do not do any other social media and naturally gravitated to music discussion and review channels. Somehow I watched an early video of Pete and of course was algo-ed into more content I enjoyed enough to become a subscriber. From that I discovered all the rest of the panel in their various shows and absolutely enjoy all of the content. Thank you all for the content and looking forward to 'part 2.'
All of your shows are just great but this one is on a different level thanks for honesty and I hope all of your shows go on for a long time thank you pete
Wow cool configuration of guests. All you need is Brendon Snyder and Larry Graves and you would have had all of the “RUclipsrs” I watch on a daily/weekly basis. Maybe see if either or both could join on the next ones 😁
Just like you I love music. I saw Pete’s ranking the albums of Ozzie, and was a fan of yours since. Thank you for exposing me to so many new bands and movies.as a fifty four year old blind man I was seen as weird for liking anthrax, slayer, Celtic frost and Venum. I used to try to sing like dio, but I never got it right. I think I would have been a good Kevin Debra though.
This was a great show! Didn't think I'll enjoy it so much. I'm happy my partner started collecting vinyl last fall :) so she's not complaining anymore when I come home with a bag full of physical music.
Awesome episode! Great feedback from all!
I totally agree with Pete about many people choosing to make negative comments about music or anything else for that matter. I think it’s not even about the subject matter but more about other things going on in life. Politics, family issues, work , health etc….People want to stick to early recordings when they were young without the stresses of life. If anything I appreciate new music ( from past bands as well as new young fresh bands such as “ new wave of classic rock”) even more because of the responsibilities of life. I really enjoy this community of music lovers. Thanks all👍.
I really enjoyed this video. I thank you ALL for all your passion and dedication. Over the years I have regularly watched all of you and feel like we are extended family and brothers in music! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Nice idea, very interesting topic - well done! I‘d love to see a Part 2!
This was a cool episode. I have a boring channel that is just used for my class lectures. During the pandemic I was going to start a new channel, but I realized that I didn’t have the personality to do it. I think having another person or more to work with is a great idea.
Thank you for your content(s).
I discovered SOT (and soon after the other channels) only about a year ago, when the YT algorithm finally recommended me some video(s) that felt really interesting. Soon I was kinda hooked and watched a ton of (mostly older) content; a music nerd's paradise!... Even though sometimes I can't help but feel slightly inferior and ignorant, since I'm not e.g. a huge metalhead or progger (quite selective regarding both genres).
So, can't be interested in absolutely everything, but certainly enough of it to keep me watching and occasionally making these stupid comments. 😊
This is awesome and so interesting. This hits close to home for me. Great discussion.
Now you’ve made a fascinating show Pete! Excellent video! Thank you
This show did help me through the pandemic quite a bit. I appreciate what u guys do
Thank for sharing this. I watch this channel on an almost daily basis since years, and I’ve spent more time listening to you guys than I’ve been listening to my dear friends. It gives me the impression to actually know you (at least what you are sharing of your life). What is weird is that it’s a one way relationship, as I’m a nobody for you! Of course I am, but that’s no big deal. Because I love so much you sharing your musical passion. Thanks from Switzerland.
I Loved this!! I enjoy all of you and its great to hear you talk about your journey and motivations. This really is a community. I would often lament that my friends dont listen to the same stuff I do anymore. Here, even though I'm older than some of you, it reminds me of friends in High School that had older siblings that would turn you on to good music. Just know you are appreciated and thank you for all of your hard work and for always making me feel welcomed!
That could be a show: how you all arrange your collection, and the logic/thought process behind that process.
It's funny. My wife grew up on Long Island and knew Mike Portnoy. I thought that was cool you mentioned him Pete. I do think this is a great video. I am a part of the Thrashcast Podcast here on RUclips and we get together weekly to talk about bands that shaped our listening experience growing up. I guess I am a music nerd too.
Lovely to hear all of you guys talking honestly about your passion, and what is life without passion in whatever form. I like that you don't do the clickbait just for the sake of doing clickbait. As a viewer why do I watch, well it's like been as Phil said down the pub having a chat about music with people who like the same type of music. I'd be very honest in my views on music in what I like and don't like, I do get some silly comments to my comments if I don't like a certain album or musician, and a few have said how can I comment on say a musician if I'm not one myself, which I'm not. Well I always reply with I'm not a chef but I do know what food I like and don't like. Anyway great show and extremely interesting.
I agree with a lot of what you have written. I like the chef thing. Great show.
Wonder if any of you had an extremely emotional reaction to one of your episodes? Especially if it was in person. I don’t have any RUclips or other channels but I will occasionally comment on various music videos. One day I listened to Foreigner’s “Double Vision “. Someone had posted that it was a perfect album. I said it was a great album but I thought two of the songs on side 2 were mediocre. I could tell by the guy’s reaction that it was good that we were not conversing face to face. And don’t get me wrong - I love Foreigner and that album but just about every album has some fillers.
Great episode and I hope you do more. It’s interesting getting your perspectives. SOT and all the other channels remind me of gatherings with my friends in the 70s and 80s when we would put on an album, kick back, drink some beer 🍺, shoot the breeze and discuss the music. Time and distance now makes that hard. Your channels allow us to commune with likeminded people. Thank you and your comrades for all your hard work and please keep it up!
Very cool guys!! I know it takes a lot of time to do this!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fun video. Jamie made a good point toward the end....the best shows are when there are no more than 4 people in the room. I'd watch more content but I'm too impatient if there are more than 4 talking heads. Anyway, this was an interesting show....👍
Thanks guys..interesting insight..please continue
Great episode…excellent points made by all of you, finding room for my collection is an ongoing challenge I struggle with. A problem I’m starting to have with all your channels is I only have maybe an hour a day maximum to watch content so unfortunately I have to pick and choose videos based on my music tastes.
Awesome episode with some of the most passionate ppl on YT.
SOT has been my go to site for the last 7 years
Really love the Dream Setlists,Album Rankings
And would love to see the Traditional Metal episodes become a weekly thing..
There’s just no time to make it a weekly thing sadly…I am pretty much tapped out with weekly shows.
Great show guys. I hope you know how we,across the world, appreciate your commitment and effort in entertaining and educating us..
Nice to see how much work goes into each show or how little depending on the person. I found Sot during Covid & found out about so much music from my past that I never knew existed that I now have in my collection. Plus, the Album ranking shows have taken me from to just having the greatest hit's to getting the whole bands catalog. It's too bad Scott Lade could make hope he makes the next show.
Great show, really interesting to hear everyone’s motivation for doing their channels. As a regular watcher of all your shows it was fascinating to hear the different reasons everyone has for their shows 6:09 .
Also thanks Pete for responding to my comment on Magnum yesterday. I love the band but feel they often get overlooked as they don’t seem to fit in any particular genre.
Loved this episode and want it to continue! Love to hear all the "behind the scenes" stuff!
I love this episode. It's awesome. As a host of a podcast and a potential podcast, I loved this.
As a Viewer, I started watching to try to get back to my Youth when me and my mate Bob used to chew the fat endlessly about Music and Rock generally..its really not the same but its as close as I can get, and I thank you all for rinsing your wallets for our benefits, I really do
Great show guys, always enjoy the info and passion for music.
I think you guys have inspired myself to listen to more bands like Styx etc being an Iron Maiden fan and also you inspire others no matter what subject you are covering on videos
I credit shows like this from SOT, Ralph from Almost Human and John from Lair of the Alchemist for turning me on and tuning me into- first and foremost- Motorhead but also Thin Lizzy.
Since discovering SOT I've been a regular watcher. Now I find myself wanting to be in the group and discuss the music with you. So its true about creating a cool group of friends from these RUclips shows. The Review Crew is the one show I'd love to join as a panellist.
Hey Jamie, tell me how I can get a spot on your Review Crew show. It's totally the thing I like. I'm always pushing new music on my friends!
Great video. But the problem is.... watching all your videos gave me more music to listen to but less time too listen to it.
Today driving in the car during our holiday in Australia i put on my classic rock/metal spotify list. Heard some Roadmaster, Pat Travers, Blackfoot, Samson, UFO and Tygers of Pan Tan among others. Bands i (never) heard of but only started buying and listening to thanks to you guys.
My girlfriend was not amused by the way..
Just hope for you guys that creating these shows stays a labour of love or a great job.
Let it be fun.
Great video..will finish love the personalities
Great show, gentlemen! Interesting insights.
Great.
We need a part 2.
Great episode! Pete, in regards to early in the show when you said views are lower lately - I have a small insight into that as a long-time subscriber. There's something about the new thumbnails that doesn't jump at me like before. Can't explain why, closest I can muster is maybe it's not as recognizable as an SoT video than it was before? Something about just your face or the faces on panel shows in the thumbnail told me a new SoT video was out and I'd usually click it without even reading the title. Now it's kind of in reverse where a title of your new video will catch me and I look closer to see whose channel it is. (I guess that is somewhat of an explanation after all.) Hope that makes some kind of sense. Still love the show!!!
But I make sure to include the SoT logo so people know it’s us, as well as an image of the panel crew or myself, so that aspect is still there.
Yeah, I’ve been paying more attention to the views the last few days and they don’t look too bad, so maybe my theory is not the best one haha
A cool idea for a show might be bands that drastically changed their sound for better or for worse. For example, early Alice in Chains were glam metal and then they went grunge(better). The Cult were post punk and then they went metal(debatable). TSOL were a great original SoCal punk band that did a full 180 and went hair metal when their original singer quit(worse). Just an idea...
On that note, I wish there was a webpage to post content ideas. I often wonder if our ideas get lost due to so many comments. I realize that can’t read or choose all.

@@heygringo7 My best friend is a natural born comedian. He gave me the nickname in junior high and it stuck ever since. And I did like a couple of their songs. And it goes with my half-Spanish heritage.
Magnum were 100% part of the wave. In that time period they were in with Maiden and Diamondhead etc.
Great show...would have loved to seen andy edwards on this program
Stuff you do made me go back to prog and I love it!
