    Y’all I got the theaters backwards- Majestic was the venue with the seats knocked out & Palace still had bottom row seats. I apologize for that error🙏🏼

    Are abandoned theaters something you’d like to see more of on my channel?

    MY BROTHA
    0:44 the whole architecture of the place is just so incredible, would love to have seen it back in the day with it's performances and large audience!
    1:29 that is just remarkable, it's hard to find the words that describe how magnificent that looks
    3:01 I'm so greatful no one has destroyed this, it's such a welcoming view!!
    3:14 that chandelier with power must have been a spectacle to see at night 🤩
    5:08 that looks like a backrooms level lol
    5:38 they're waiting for the show 🐦
    5:45 yeah it does, and it looks new too 🤔
    6:06 man even the flying dust makes it look epic
    7:01 that's unfortunate 🙁
    8:04 can't say I've ever seen chandeliers hung up like that before
    8:35 man even the stairs look amazing
    9:52 oh brother this video is epic even without the power on
    11:02 LET'S GOOOOOO!!! it might not be all the power but something is better than nothing!! That's truly incredible
    11:54 great music choice, loved the purple seats they went with
    13:34 that's awesome 😂😂
    Luke the electrician
    14:15 man it's crazy how huge they were!!!
    Amazing video brother 👏 jolly good show!! This place is truly a gem 💎 the whole atmosphere of it is just remarkable!! Also you forgot to choose a chair or the episode 🤔🪑?

    It's a shame this place was closed but the condition is amazing for it being closed that long. Nothing beats that amazing architecture and style of those times. Loved the drone work in the intro!
    5:45 That was definitely a camera....that was most definitely not on lol!
    The lighting was great. Without a good light, the video just never comes out right but you got that down. Then they found the power panel, nice.
    Those spotlights/theater lights up there were insane! Never seen anything quite like it.
    10/10, would watch again, thanks for another top notch video as always!!!

    • @TheLukeExplores
      @TheLukeExplores  Месяц назад +2

      Appreciate the comment man! The only thing I’d say is no drone in the intro unfortunately:) crazy it still looks this amazing after all this time, even though it was resorted for a short time. Lighting was a worry, and without a good camera it wouldn’t come out at all. This was the perfect opportunity to show why I got the camera I did, and it kinda stunk that the power didn’t come on all the way I was hoping for more light haha.
      Definitely not my best work but I’m just relieved to get a video out, gonna start working on next weeks video already 🔥

      Hey Mary! Welcome back, I’m so glad you loved it. Sorry for messing the two theaters names up, this was one of my favorite explores in a while. Wish it got lit up a little better but is what it is, brand new video coming tmr! It’s a spooky one

      @TheLukeExplores Thank you! Where did I go? Lol. I came to your live, but all it did was buffer for me. But I made it!
      I think some people just like watching the same things over and over, and have no variety. That's why we come here, you give us great selection!
      Not to worry about the mix up. I did like this, the high ceilings were amazing! You're so lucky you got to see this.

    Hello Luke: I’ve recently gotten hooked on watching these Urban Explorer videos, or Urbex as it is called. I discovered your channel as a recommendation directly from RUclips on my homepage, and I have to say I immediately noticed something different about you and your approach to exploration. There are so many people now who seem to be interested in doing this type of exploration, but you have a positive attitude about it and you seem to care about what you find. I’ve watched Urbex videos with product sponsorships inserted, Urbex guys who acted smug, and guys who acted silly. You want to inform us and that is why we pay attention. I don’t know how you fund your explorations; however, if you ever do ask for supporters, just include a voluntary link. The quality of your videos will draw people to your channel and cause them to donate naturally. One additional thought: I have health issues and could not do what you are doing. You are young and probably open to the world around you. As you go through these buildings, I suggest stopping at times and seeing if you can feel the energy of the house. We are all made of energy and we leave energy behind. If you are open-minded to it, you could feel as much as you see. It won't hurt you. It will let you know if something positive or negative happened in places. Maybe in time, you will learn something about its past.
    I wish you much success. Your new subscriber, Bruce J.

      Bruce I really appreciate you taking the time to write out that comment- that is an extremely nice string of comments you made, I’m so glad you really love my content. I believe that if you don’t love what you do your content won’t be as good as it can be. I love the exploring & abandoned experience, head to toe. From the drive there to the drive home. I really appreciate you recognizing my spirit and passion for what I do, welcome to the family man. I’ve definitely thought about setting up a voluntary link, and channel memberships are definitely in the makings soon here. Finding my way in the real world slowly but surely, and tbh it is a very expensive hobby 😂😂 RUclips ain’t quite pay back what goes into it though monetary value yet but I’d do it for free, as I did for so long. Also, I’m very open minded. I love connecting with every place I explore, maybe that’s something I can include in my explores maybe? I’m just not sure how many people want to listen to my voice for more than a minute or two 😂 I’m just kidding, again thank you so much for the kind words but we aren’t done here. Much, much, more to go. As we say here, let’s explore!

    What beautiful theaters, they don't make them like that anymore. I didn't see much graffiti which is good. If I had the money that Oprah, Bill Gates etc
    have, Id love to fix that place up to the best that it could be & open it up again before It's gone forever. Another great video Luke! 👍
