Eduardo Yukio jehu we work two jobs and between bills and car payments still hardly have enough money to get groceries. college diplomas are basically worthless now. so what else is my generation supposed to do? half of my friends joined the military for free college because their parents (your generation) dont have the money to send them to school so they did something about it.
Travis Costa Gen X and the Baby Boomers had exactly the same problem. Sure housing might have been cheaper but you try paying of a Mortgage when the interest rates were around 18%. Gen Y and the Millennials have been sold this idea that you need a University degree to get a decent job. Schools hardly even mention going to a technical collage for a certificate or getting an apprenticeship and being a tradesman. Tradies will quite often pull in over $100k a year here in Australia. Why? Because they had a go and didn't believe they were entitled to something because their parents, teachers and a piece of paper said so. Unfortunately, My Generation, Gen Y and The Millennials haven't worked this out yet or are only just starting to find out everyone before has suffered the same as them but in just slightly different ways. You will get your break one day. It just probably won't happen as quick or in the manner you want it too.
even technical schools dont matter nowadays. ive gota bachelors in electrical engineering and am still struggling. everyone wants experienced workers but wont give them the chance to gain the experience. im 20 with a bachelors and i work retail and side contracting and still can hardly have money lect after bills. people back in the day made 2- 6 dollars an hour but $6 in the 70s and 80s had the spending power if $18 nowadays. were not lazy and ungrateful. we got stuck with the result of generations before us ruining the economy and now we are ridiculed for their mistakes essentially. im not mad about it but it does suck
A Bachelors in EE is a University degree here in Australia. Our technical collages (TAFE) only go up to Advanced Diploma but they have now been defunded by the government and are getting expensive unless you are on welfare and can get one free course per year. Back in the late 60ies my father (baby boomer) at one stage was working 5 jobs. His main one was as a shoe maker and only earned $20 a week but he did anything from bar staff, laboring, repairing speaker boxes and playing in a rock band at local pubs and clubs. It wasn't until he retrained via TAFE and started working for himself from home that we have been able to live comfortably. We don't have what most people or society thinks we need but we are happy. Has the other generations spoiled it for us? Not at all. We've grit our teeth through the bad times and taken advantage of the good times and been happy with what we've got. Don't worry, the next generation will whinge that you have spoiled the economy for them.
I did a TEDx talk, and you need to be nominated still, but you can nominate yourself... which is what I did. There would still be a vetting process though.

Incredible inspiring talk! Also, I love how unique this instrument is. I love that it's easy to distinguish the 2 parts of every note (the "slap" and then the gutteral tone of the note itself).
"Don't be a blue man... Just be your own man..." Words to live by. Hehe😆 This guy and this instrument are da coolest! Real life techno pipes ! GET DOWN!
hey, i think its great that u didnt get selected in that blue man group...you might have lost your own potential..and now, u can be ur own...u r amazing at what u do..keep it up!!! u actually dont need blue man!!
that is not what i meant.... i meant how they use "u" instead of you and "r" instead of are, and no punctuation. you can't assume that is what i meant, and look at how they spelled every other word, it's fine

I'm glad this showed up in the recommended section. I remember seeing that viral video of his, and it's nice to know how he got started and how things are coming along for him. Also that song was pretty darn good.
Been following here and there since the Daft Punk medley after getting introduced to Blue Man Group in high school, super glad to get to know more about the journey behind the videos while experiencing similar stuff job hunting out of grad school!
great story, watched a lot of his videos, appearently this is the kid ! I have a decent pile of pvc & vacuum hoses waiting to become something, but it all needs a frame built.
I just love how the weirdness he seemed to feel became his strength, and I couldn't agree more. I feel like that too, and I think he was not being myself in all my weirdness, I wouldn't be much happier. Love your concept Snubby :)
I hope you read this. The blue man group relies primarily on blank looks and a series of multiple tricks and instruments to get their humor across. Basically a bunch of straight men with the cool mixed in. Your cool with passion mixed in. I’m sorry, They were correct to turn you down. They apparently sucked because they didn’t tell you why in a way you could understand. Your destiny is beyond them. Next step in engineering, a tube organ with key and foot pedal auto strike system. Call it a concussion pipe organ
Wow...I have followed Kent since his first debut show at his high school. This is great :) You don't need the Blue Man Group...you have your own style. I love the cloned vids you do :)
Kent bro did you ever think the blue man group seen you as a great person who was on his own path and they were trying to get you to realize that you are great as you as a person and they wanted you to grow into this and saw you would do great things beyond what they could give you and in doing so they gave you the greatest gift self confidence and the ability to be your own master at the rythmtubes and know they did that out of love and they didnt want you in their shadows but in your own light shining bright cause they knew you'd do great things by doing you
This man is another 'rather scarce' example of your typical 'one in a million'...like, let's say, late Robin Williams: extremely 'himself', extremely talented and this own good sense of humor as well. The rest will follow, good man!
Kent, as a business entrepreneur for 22 years, who faced a lot of naysaying and discouraging comments for many years, and I committed and I worked night and day, and I never gave up on the vision to help others and to find my own path up, I can tell you some little piece of advice... I know you think that you want to be a "blue man" but seriously you have way more to offer the world as you than a run of the mill blue guy that no one knows personally. You can be you and allow your natural flare and talent shine and you have more artistic flexibility working independently. Focus... Who are YOU? Not who do others want you to be? How can you be a trail blazer? How can you raise the bar and set a new standard of goodness, brightness, and unique inspiration.

Man, i'm so happy for him that he still has this succes. The only thing i wonder is what do you have to do to be accepted on The Blue Man Group?

LOL ITS JUST LIKE ME!!! I was 8 and I wanted to be a piano player with my grandma's piano. By 10 I started to learn how to break dance. By 12 (now) I spent a lot of money on a camera and adobe after effects. Who knows what will be next year though

I've been binging Snubby J's videos for a bit now, and I saw this and I thought it was really cool that he's been invited to this.
I may be wrong, but due to the fact that this is a TEDx Talk and not a TED Talk, which means you can sign up for it.

Such an incredible story, and wonderful talent! Kent you're originality and story are what make you so brilliant and unique- you are your own show!
"I wanted to be a blue man"
Incredible inspiring talk! Also, I love how unique this instrument is. I love that it's easy to distinguish the 2 parts of every note (the "slap" and then the gutteral tone of the note itself).
It's spelled "guttural". Hope this helps! ❤
hardest lesson in life is , you gotta believe in yourself . thank your DAD for encouraging you .
You don't need the blue man group you got your self .. keep rocking
You don''t need to be a blue man.
You are your own man..
You inspire others, you will do many things that others wont do, inc the blue men..
This is someone that loves what he’s doing
I don’t know what’s more impressive… This, or the artists that made these tunes so recognizable.
Omg I used to watch this guys videos back in like 2007-2008. I kept watching his videos after I saw Blue Man Group perform.
what i love most more than the instrument or his amazing ability while playing it is his passion and just how happy he is while playing it!
As a drummer and music enthusiast, this had me smiling❤️ I've seen so many of your videos and I love them!
-Greeting from a Norwegian drummer🤙🙌
If I left my plumber alone for an hour, and heard this under my sink, I wouldn't even be mad.
If you left your plumber alone for an hour you'd be owing him/her about $200.
@@RErnie-gv1hv sounds cheep for a PVC pipe concert in my kitchen.
Couldn't look away, he made an instrument, then made a badass tune as well? Top human
I had never heard of him untill like a week ago and now hes everywhere
I don't see how anyone can reject your talent :3
The heavy reverb and poor mic'ing really steal the impact of the performance.
OregonCoastGhost it’s a big room with unavoidable natural reverb
I Agree, his own recordings sound way better
Big Al people complain about anything they can
No I completely agree. The speech was so moving and then the performance was nothing special
Very underwhelming
Achieving your dreams is about knowing what you want to do and letting go of how you expect the opportunity to come to you :)
I love his passion in Every Piece! Ive SEEN the Blue Man Group and id tell this kid, "sir, U Sir are MUCH MORE TALENTED than the Blue Man Group!"
"Don't be a blue man...
Just be your own man..."

Hehe😆
This guy and this instrument are da coolest!

Blew his mind !

i've seen allmost all of his videos. he is a happy-guy :)
great work, i think this is art, so he is a real artist :D
This instrument has such cool tonal qualities that are so unique and amazing. Love it🤟

Totally!

LuckeD Came for the song, not the life story
Then don't watch the ted talk? Just watch all the videos on his channel of him just playing the song. The talk is called a talk for a reason...
@@LuckeD Not Really i just Wanted to confirm that he actually is a Copycat of the bluemangroup and he totally is.
Reminds me of my childhood days playing computer games with this type of music in the background. Loved the piece, the instrument and your talent.
First saw his stuff on old school ebaumsworld. Cool to see him still going with his PVC instrument
This man is another 'rather scarce' example of your typical 'one in a million'...like, let's say, late Robin Williams: extremely 'himself', extremely talented and this own good sense of humor as well. The rest will follow, good man!

Awesome talk. I enjoyed watching :)
This kid is an inspiration
Man you are awesome and you will be a very great blue man

My eldest daughter likes your music so do i
This should be used to communicate with aliens if they ever come...

"...and I was told 'No'" Well, at least he is persistent. LOL Great skills.
what an awesome talented guy!
Moral of the story: you can have your inspirations but ultimately you have to discover your own version of yourself.

Saved me time, real show starts at 12:45.....

How's the piano an break dancing going?
YT wants the world to know obviously since this was my in my recommend.
if he had/learned how to use a looper he'd definitely would rock out entire concerts by himself.
