VLOG #1 - Metallica Feature and over 1,500 subs!

[TheLittleBonham]

Hey man, I'm a drummer and I'd love to do a collab with you or anyone else if you can! :D

[scbene]

hey LittleBonham, maybe when i get a bunch of these collabs i am currently working on done. do you have your kit all mic'd up. we do these collabs in high quality audio tracks.

[TheLittleBonham]

I have 2 mics for my drums and hook it up to my mixer and record it on Sony Acid. if you wanna see how it sounds, go to my videos, and watch short snareless solo, the audios good but the video skipps :/

thanks :)

[chintoomsingh]

2 good ,great regards

[rockeramazon]

i has you as a subcription, but then it went away. s, i subscribed again. i always watch your stuff. you never fail to amaze me =) i'm not a huge fan of metallica, but they're defintely cool, and one of the main classics of all the modern bands now. =)

[scbene]

hey girl, thanks for re-subscribing! Metallica, Godsmack and Evanescence are probably my fav bands of all time :)

[mjzl]

well, hmm ure good................... u got good sounds i want u 2 like go out with more metallicas like fade 2 black for whom the bells tools and a little older metallicas songs master 1 and a littl bit more + u need to make lesson on metallicas songs on guitar xD

[NoResponse22]

Keep um' comin, i love you guys's vids!

[RhiannanAR1]

OMG congratulations Shane and the ppl you collabed with on the Metallica video - you must have been blown away when you found out Metallica featured you on their channel!! Although, I'm not all that surprised to hear that!!

[scbene]

thanks, yeah we were shocked when we found out about the Metallica feature. i thought somebody was pulling my leg :) thanks so much for the kind words!

[EinOzeanZwischenUsa]

Too bad the people you collab with don't live near you. You'd all make awesome band or bands

[mountaindewtard]

there i just subscribed to all those people

[scbene]

WOW! that was a tall task mountaindewtard! thanks for subbing to all my collabing friends! i am sure they appreciate that very much :P

[landonwk3]

i always thought it was pronounced like bean and not like benny. and what happened to the goatee?

[scbene]

the goatee goes on and off. i have a love/hate relationship with facial hair. i can never make up my mind!

[blazepriest]

lol you forgot my name! lol im just kidding, and thats great! that proves that u and your awsome musician friends rock!!!!

[scbene]

thanks dude!

[evTom14]

i always wondered how your screen name was prenounced, and to be featurd by metallica is pretty fucking amazing! and if you ever need a singer, hit me up,

[TaylorKingMusic]

Awesome man! Congratulations on the Metallica feature, that's fucking great!

[scbene]

thanks Taylor! it was a BIG shock when we found out about it :)

[TaylorKingMusic]

I can imagine man! I would've shit my pants haha

[Target1131]

i know this is off topic but do you have an acoustic guitar? if so which kind(even though they all look the same lol)?

[scbene]

no Target1131, i sure dont. i use an acoustic simulator on my Digitech RP250 when i need an acoustic sound :)

[landonwk3]

i have the rp500 and it does have a good simulation, it sounds more acoustic if you turn the compressor on.

[Aur0rah]

i want to say you look like a famous actor, but i want to tell you that i admire your aptitude and talent for making multimedia colaborations! i think you have alot to grow and make out of this! good luck!

[scbene]

well thanks Aur0rah!

[lolondd]

Cool dude, your voice's like lars's voice :D

[scbene]

oh hey if you're lookin for some really good vids/lessons of shredding look up GaryEddyEdwards

from what i've seen, it's realy badass so take a look bene

[scbene]

hey thanks for the tip f16pilot92!

[arrowmarcher]

so do you guys all know each other, or do you send files back and forth?

[scbene]

we just talk through the net and they all send their files to me and i do the mixing or sometimes thepapax does the audio mixing for me and i mix the videos....

[titovincenzo]

and dude our first collab we ever did with no backing music with tOko is on metallicaTV!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've got some calls from my bro and friends congratulating us on that! how cool to be favorited by the mighty metallica!!!! nice to be part of that dude so thanks man and keep rockin like i know you do!!!! peace! and talk to ya soon!

[titovincenzo]

nice job shane and thanks for the props dude! hey i just want to say thanks man! besides you musical talent, the time and effort it takes for you to make your collabs is a gift to all of us who participate!!! we play and sing and you put it all together like a pro! hats off to you dude!!! i look forward to your furure vids if i'm in them our not! you rock!!!

[scbene]

hey Vince...thanks dude..you are one class act my friend! it has seemed like forever since we found time to do another collab since i disappear one, but now that we hooked up again for LIB we should keep doing more man!

i'll be talking with you real soon man!

take care,

Shane

[tmac3323]

dude! congrats on everything!

favorited by METALLICA? DUDE! lol. JEALOUSY FTL! xD and i just looked that up, if they go in order from bottem to top like i think they do for the favorite list (the last vid is what they added first, and the most recent one is at the top) then they added your video second, right after their own video, so youd be the first video they favorited from somebody else

thats amazing!

even though youve probably heard that tons of times before xD

anyway, grats ag

[tmac3323]

ran out of room. grats again dude, ive been getting a lot better and learning a lot more stuff so hopefully ill become about as successful on youtube as u one of these days xD i just gotta clean up my playing, im really sloppy through a lot of my songs and thats my downfall =\ but that just gives me somethin to work on xD

keep up the videos and ill be here for 2000 :D

(if it keeps goin like this it could probably be a couple weeks xD which would rock xD)

[scbene]

WOW tmac, that was one BIG comment! yeah, the whole metallica thing took me totally by surprise! it was awesome that they did that! just bought my tallica tickets yesterday for when they come to saint louis! keep rockin the guitar man...yeah, it takes a little practice to tighten up your sound, but thats what makes it so much fun!

take care man and thanks for all the continued support dude! i appreciate it :)

Shane

[tmac3323]

OMG your in st. louis?!? dude -.- i wish i knew that, i went to st louis a while ago for a cubs/cards game, the one we lost -.- was for my bday lol, but it was the best trip of my life, we stayed at the westin across from the field with my friend zach's acoustic. and dont worry ill be here supportin for a while xD maybe a little longer than a whiel xD

[scbene]

really , ha..small world man! yeah the cards are TOAST and the rams stink! hopefully the blues will have a good season and save our city! thanks again dude for all the support :) YOU ROCK!

Shane

[kirkfanbigtime]

Hiya scbene! Just watched the I Disappear collab. Wow that was so cool & Tallica feat. it too wow! I am def gonna subscribe as I think these collaboration vids are something my son (a budding musician lol) would definitely take an interest in! Thank you!!!!

[scbene]

thanks kirkfanbigtime! yeah, we were shocked when we found that out! that means they actually liked it :)

yeah...the collabs are fun but take alot of work to get completed......

thanks again for watching...

Shane

[Myxale]

Oi, scbene!

I think this video blog is a good idea, since it gives us more insight in all the stuff that you and your collab;mates undertake!

You guys (all collab's) should do a joint vlog or an Q&A session! For the fans!

anyway, kudos for you guys for getting to metallica.

Rock on!

[scbene]

hey Myxale! thanks man. i don't know if the other people are OK with talking on camera :)

P.S. funny pronunciation of my username... and you look like 23 without mustache... And Eric should watch his back about subscribers! LOL...

[EricSes]

*SIGH!*

And I've always pronounced your user name as the pay packs.

[thepapax]

pay packs?... hahaha... well that's closer... I accept it... but is something like "The Pa-PAXX"

[t0ko]

hey Armando...thanks dude! me too! it is always an honor to work with such awesome people like you and the others i have done collabs with!

Shane

[scbene]

[wisa89]

Pretty sure I feel super special right now! I always wondered how you'd pronounce 'wisa89'. Congratulations on all the subs, and trust me, you deserve them all! Thanks for letting me be a part of your wonderful work Shane.

Shane

[EricSes]

I think you two need to take a vacation and leave Youtube for a few months. You know...help get the creative and artistic juices flowing again! I'm only saying this as a friend...

[scbene]

are you paying? i would love to go sit on the beach for a week!

[kindakooldude]

You and Ericses should totally unite and make a band that will go down in history!But I don't know.Mabye

[scbene]

me and Eric actually only live about 8 hours away from each other.......we talked about getting together one day maybe!

[Musicmancometh5150]

If you ever seriously do that someday let me know. I'm only about 6 1/2 hours away. We could have a big old jam session and post some stuff on youtube! If we could ever find the time.

[scbene]

there is the trick Dave, finding the time to do something like that! but it would be so cool!

[descendynce]

awesome man! great job for a first v log, ive never done one cause i only have 83 subscribers!!

ttyl this is scottbennettdrumming on the bands account lol

[bimon3]

Congratulations!!! 1,500 subs... great job! :PP

Where is your beard?!?! :P

[scbene]

thank U very much bimon3! i just shaved yesterday.....usually when it gets to be too much maintenance i end up always shaving it off!

[BKDocHoliday]

I'm proud to be one of the 1,500 subscribers :D the first time i found one of your videos was the I disappear video around the time it was uploaded. keep making them you guys are very good.

[scbene]

WOW! that's a ways back man....thanks for all your support dude....i truly appreciate it!

[LINDALOVELACE2008]

[Musicmancometh5150]

Dude! You shaved the gotee! Thanks for the plug Shane. Good job on the Vlog.

[scbene]

hey Dave...yeah. i always get sick of it after awhile and end up shaving it off. but i did get a few video for collabs filmed while i had it! and your welcome for the plug dude!

[KnaRRaN1989]

Dude u have shaved... :D my first notice when i watched this =)

[scbene]

yeah.....i just shaved. i have a love / hate relationship with facial hair!

[stewartjsly]

congratulations, you guys rock, you guys have great talent, i would love to see you guys do a one cover

[scbene]

we'll see if we can do that ONE some day :) thanks for watching man!

[juliojrdn]

so lucky i have like 20

[scbene]

well keep at it! i remember when i had 5 :)

[juliojrdn]

u got any suggestions? im kinda out

[scbene]

the only thing i can think of is to get as high quality audio as you can and doing collaborations seems to attract more people to your channel...i don't know it's weird. so many people deserve more subs than me but somehow people find my channel?

[silentkilla1789]

Ur all great. Keep rockin!

[scbene]

thanks silentkilla1789 :)

[MikeO9236]

Congrats for 1500 subscribers and video featured in the Metallica channel, that's awesome! Keep those videos comin!

[scbene]

thanks Mike, i appreciate that!

[EricSes]

Especially me. I deserve a lot more subscribers than you. *COUGH COUGH* ;) ;)

Great vlog! You blow mine out of the water. You must have had Public Speaking 201 in college! I only had 101, thus the reason I'm not very good. *COUGH* ;)

[scbene]

HA! yeah right Eric! i am self taught,LOL! sounds like you have a nasty cough...you should have that looked at :)

[JimmyMeetsRamone]

THAT WAS GREAT!!! Keep doing these vlogs, man

[scbene]

thanks Jimmy :P

[GMcharly]

Good first Vlog!!!!! better than half of them on here lol!!
