My PVC Instrument Mega Mix and Me as a Blue Man

[beyblade1ish]

awesome man

[MrDanielBrisk]

Very well done!!! Have you considered putting together a tutorial showing how you build the PVC paino, the mallet/beater things....what exactly do you call something used to play PVC? Slappers? And how you got that Blue Man look? I always thought they used stage make-up, but when you put it on, it almost looked like acrylic paint. Tell me man, how did you do it?

[piratequeen11]

So how long do you think it takes you on average to put on all your make up?

[wutangbiz]

MAD creepy

[elvisbossful]

is girl ?



[CLbrs23]

blueman group fakes you!

[WoHDEMENTOR]

Your shit is coming down.

[TheUnSolid]

Did the blue man group inspire you to play PVC?

Cause they did it well!

You play really good.

[XIIOniOokamiXII]

so its a green screen then... good thing you didnt use a blue screen =P

[ktmracerboi56]

if urr trying to b a blueman you are well on your way that is very impressive kid good work keep doing it i enjoy your vids

[algallego]

Sounds like a mono recording only coming out of my left speaker... did this occur in your recording? Or perhaps, I need to check my connections...rather curious.

[JannisxD1]

i´m from germany and i read about you in a newspaper and so i thougt i should watch one video and its awesome, but i think you´ve made better videos than this. I like to listen to metal but what you do is so great! Maybe you can try to make a song of slipknot.( sry for my grammer etc) (=

[greendaynirvanaboy]

Kool

[Carasson]

Looks like you blue yourself!

[QceanWeaver]

The Blue Man Group need to hire you!

[Pontisto]

OMG these could be used in electronic music!! It would sound so awesome!!

[TheKelju]

I've watched few of your videos now. I may not like the song you are playing too much as I am a metal head myself(sweet thing with the Crazy train :) ) But I'm always been a sucker for a good entertainer, and you sir, are one in my book!

keep up the great work!

[AllTimeKilingz]

You wanna be in their group so bad dont you?

[Wachbrett]

bluemans group fakes you!

[blackraspberrytwist]

i feel like you burned your eyes into my soul D: amazing job though i think your best performance was DRS talent show for sure. when you play fast songs it really does the instrument justice :)

[dadubbydrummer]

are you left handed? your style reflects it.

[Sethorex]

very nice...drumbone didnt sound right though...you missed a few beats on the lowest note it seemed.

[namelessliar]

You blue yourself...

[Kylum90]

i really hope blue man group is ok with this i mean you are dressing like them i hope they havent done anything like persue legal action for using their image...dint hulk hogan sue cocoa pebbles for using a charecter that resembles him?...owell none the less keep playing i new all those years of slaming my hand on pipe ends to make sounds i like just wasnt for passing the time >:)

[xINJUNx]

oustanding young man, i have no doubt u will be a blue man 1 day,good luck

[flamingshadow666]

this instrument is awesome i'm learning on a piano before trying one of these but some day ill be playing this to

[benben071]

Why are u looking so scary at the cam...are u looking if you record light is still burning??

[DrunkenGolfer]

No, sorry. The "instrument" is out of tune; that is obvious. Moreover, you are out of rythm. Try not to publish videos until it's actually worth it.

[SethoMarkus]

@DrunkenGolfer Please send me a link of a video with you doing better. Thank you.

[Custom2212]

You play really well. It must have taken a lot of hard work to get to that level.

Is the layout of the pipes your own design? Do you have all the chromatic notes in there?

[snubbyj]

@Custom2212 Thank you! And yes, I designed the pipe layout with my dad so that the pipes were set up chromatically.

[Custom2212]

@snubbyj Cool. Which layout did you use? Was it like a piano?

[snubbyj]

@Custom2212 Yes, it is setup like a chromatic piano.

[thebrowntrainer]

good job man

[grinky678]

0:43 shows better detail of the bald cap problem people complain about

[parsleysprigs]

good job man i'm currently making myself into a blue man as we speak I'm going to a party as one. just needed a reference to work with thanks.

[CloCkWorKkaZZiE]

wait in las Vegas i was at blue man group and i took a picture with them so you were the one that i took a picture with?

[snubbyj]

@CloCkWorKkaZZiE Nope ;-) Unlike the Blue Man you took a picture in Vegas with, I am not a real member of the Blue Man Group (although I hope to be some day, though!)

[mig123100]

@snubbyj well as i got told by my dad if you keep on trying you will eventually get there someday just keep on playing and ur not bad lmao

[brettblakee]

what are you holding?

[snubbyj]

@brettblakee I am holding my home-made paddles. They are made out of paint stirrers and foam from a garden knee pad cushion.

[gaffifan]

You should be in the BMG industry!! You are amazing!!! I love the videos!! ROCK ON!!!!!

[viniciusferreira11]

Man... you're REALLY good! I'm sure that the real BMG ate really proud of it! Keep pushing!!!

[joeperryfan13]

good playying but sloppy job with the bald cap

[GLaDOSISM]

1:15 sounds like a pokemon battle

[funkadelickid]

That was tight but ur bald cap was hanging off ur face but other than that it was great! Keep practicing

[13emmalee]

you just gave me the best halloween costume idea ever! and you are supreamly talented.

[kungopus]

great work dude!

[willywonka3882]

kent you rock

[Tillerjunkey]

Well done!

[reschchrissi]

good audio quality for a youtube video

[DavisBaker007]

ok you got some serious talent you could probably be one of the next blue men i'm trying to be as good as right now

[llrosatelli]

go make some real drum lessions learn some basic rudiments and then try to play these pipes after youve done it

[RedDemonSRT4]

Sick man!

[always0missing0her]

Could you email me a detailed set of instructions of your plan, i cant find any simlar to yours, if needed can you copy it from the original website you got yours from. plz adn thank you, if you can reply to this and i willgive you my email adress

[lightbriareos]

you might need a little work on the makeup.

[63B1stmaint]

nice job! \m/

[landon1821]

fuck any one that hates on this. ur badass at that shit

[havalitoo]

suck

[Superunknownful]

what time is Utne Wire Man at?

[snubbyj]

@Superunknownful Utne is at 3:04

[Aljokuli]

Very original, but I think you should have practiced a little more. The determination and timing is really off.

[deleriousmind]

Very cool! Great Job!!! LOVE the pvc instrument!

[loyaltylight]

was this by chance made on a Mac

[snubbyj]

@loyaltylight

Nope, a Windows XP ;-)

[madmadguy]

wats the song at 2:00

[snubbyj]

@madmadguy

Persona ;-)

[VH5150MetallicaFan]

You gotta tell me where you found this stuff

[GARGLER42]

I'm impressed - well done matey.

[inuyashamega5500]

how much did you spend on building the PVC piano??? and what kind of paint did you use for the face? latex?

[snubbyj]

@inuyashamega5500

My main PVC Instrument section cost me over $300 and I use Mehron greasepaint (the same company that makes BMG's greasepaint).

[cuteycindyhoney]

That was cool! You put a lot of work into it and it shows!

[adrummingman]

you could keep the timing better if you'd installed double notes in order to play the songs RLRL ;)

[touffu64]

Waooow! Tu gère niveau rythme!! Par contre il faut améliorer un peu le maquillage...

Mais continues!!!!

[4drumrzm4]

around 3:50 you slowed the pududuhs

[racerm50]

yeah dude you got the song nailed! I'm also impressed with the effort you put constucting the the piece.

[projectdelta50]

woot rods and cones

[Prezsama]

WOW XD STUPENDOUS WORK XD Ilove blue man group they are awesome

[PancamoXXL]

what song at 1.59 ?

[snubbyj]

Persona ;-)

[KRMSsoccerman18]

You look like and alien

But really cool otherwise :)

[sxymamac]

Music wasn't half bad but the "blue" costume sucked. Dude if you wanna play the part then you need to take a little bit more time and patience into the makeup

[12lubcows12]

hes probbly on a budget

[fijnzijn]

his face is milding!!

[mizzy1121]

nice job kid. none too shabby at all.

[TheAppleMacc]

It called "Rods and Cones" Blue Man Group

[Em3ly11]

what is this song called?

[sgt1max1fightmaster]

Your terrifying. I imagine you don't get much trouble from people. Especially when you paint yourself blue and stare into their minds. Really talented though.

[game45165]

nice dude lol if you need a shadow drummer hit me up lol

[eserof]

every bit as good as the real Blue Men! If ever one of them can't do a performance, here's their fill in!

[jessemartijn]

good music, bad makeup ;)

[graypaw300]

ROFL this song was awesome performed

[LordYuppaBWS]

Awesome job!

[enfocarlos]

Great!!!

[aopaul]

too bad BMG has a height requirement. We should make a 'Green Man Group' for all those who couldn't join BMG.

[Darkdragonforce1]

its soo funny how the BMG just STARE at you sometimes with those HUGE eyes (its creepy at the same time)

[SeeSawLife]

ahahahahahaha

the music is good, but this guy is very funny!

hohohoh

[jenkzy2k9]

is i good but my films are better

[jevelungen]

Cooooooooooool :D

[jetlog17]

0:57***

[jetlog17]

57:00 LMFAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

[evilinsaneneko]

egch... i feel sorry for you having to use spirit gum... i HATE that stuff. (i'm a theatre nerd)

you're a wicked genius with that instument, though. keep it up~

[AtemnoYugi1232]

wOOt no more heros!!

[JRIPx]

What are the songs, only knew a few

but very very nice!!

[snubbyj]

Check out the description. I have the song list there ;-)

[webkikif]

hahah your make up is bad

[Jaqson]

Honestly, some of the music sounded like something they would play but other parts were actually a bit too technical. BMG tend to pick a beat, stick with it. Honestly, if you can play it like that, then thats pretty cool. I think you are an amazing percussionist and I think you would do well in the BMG.

[smeagolstudios125]

you should try and make the drumbone next

[bixlerscott]

I think you're onto something. When you get to be 18 or graduate high school, go BMG!!! Wish the best for you kid. Keep up the good work.

[6DYNAMITHARRY6]

you r good keep it up

but you could have another image...

[cprich22]

how did u make and tune the instrments?

[snubbyj]

Well, to simply put it, I made it with a shelf frame, a bunch of ABS pipe, and a board to hold the pipes lol. They are cut to different lengths to make the different notes (which required a lot of tiny shaves off the pipe to get it tuned just right).

[TaterSpudz]

Honestly that is pretty damn good kid! You kick it up a notch and keep a continuous beat like they do then you are gonna go big man...future BMG man in the making...very cool skills kid!

[Essemprum]

Cool enough i guess.

[bassgeek388]

ahhh!! a real alien!!!!!

[braedenbros]

can i buy that off of u start the price 600 bucks what do u say

[sockers32]

how did you do the lips?

[Tails41347]

Omg awesome! Why not join the Blue Man Group? xD

Maybe a place there Blue Man Group are playing and you are with them. x)

[drayus1980]

wow u got somthing there good stuff keep playin

[Tannerisgreat]

great job but u cant pul off the blue man look...welll i cant say that i bet if u shved ur head you would be exactly like them

[bixlerscott]

Awesome!  You trying out for Blue Man? You should if you aren't one yet.

[gabrielfelice]

great job man... really cool

[YaCantHandleTheTruth]

Far Out Man!!!  Nice Shade Of Smurf! Will You Ever Make Another Video? Way To Memorize And Play The Show!!! Are You A Piano Player By Chance? Nice Sound As Well!!!

[Sandrix53]

Hi! Very nice play! Would you please tell a bit in details about the pvc pipes you use? /size or type/ I am a drummer as well and I'm quite interested in an instrument like this. And what do you use as sticks? Congratulations for the video!

[cheetahkid888]

do you have a zipper on the back of the shirt?

[snubbyj]

No...though it would be nice to have one.

[FFGGEEFFGG]

Dude you make me jealous, we plan on making one of these as a family summer project. Is there a guide on how to make these, or did you do it by hand. Also if you could give me a url to the guide that would be great :) !

[h3h3l0l]

The latex hat you put on totally ruins the look when it sticks out like that.

The sound and playing was awesome! I want to see more! :-D

[dcooke1989]

nice moves

[PretProd]

One question:

Have you ever met Chris, Matt, and Phil?

[snubbyj]

I have not :-/ I hope I do some day in the future though.

[PretProd]

How sweet would that be???

[l3it3r]

Very awesome. Great job!

[firelord9000]

wait... did you get famous from a talent show at school??

[snubbyj]

eh..."ish" lol

[jetlog17]

it doesnt look blue from the video lol

[napier51]

Dude!!!! i have 3 word for you......America's got Talent!

[StackBrosTV]

Does your face look a little blue when you take the paint off?

[Quagmire8896]

you wouldn't be too bad touring with blue man group. you obviously know all their stuff.

[Shockwaves90]

The best I've seen on youtube.

[sepheth]

Sir, I must say you'de fit in just fine with BMG.

[booggymann666]

where did u get the blue paint nd wut did u use for ur hands

[snubbyj]

Mehron (the company that creates Blue Man Group's greaspaint) sells "blue person" kits on their website which is what I use. For gloves, any blue gloves (that match the paint) from a local store works.

[necridos]

Man, I remember the first time I dressed up as a blue man. It was so much fun xD

[wolfon1]

fuckinnnnnnn ace kid najs man ......

[boydrumsonwhat]

good, verry good....

L O L....Peace out, bra! Go Blue man Group l-o-l i love the audio preview

[juro294]

dude you should put tutorials on how to become a blue man and how to make a pvc instrument.youre awesome

[goertzey]

ahhhh you had to shav your har for this o_O

[CJmakesvids]

A couple things......1. Are those paint brushes?  2. Is this your future career?

[Rey051005]

buenisimoooooooo.....

[frostbite552]

dude you should actually try out for the blue men themselves but to pass the audition you have express"wistfully" with only your eyes and not your eyebrows or eyelids

[summerluv14344]

dude ur face is falling off lol rofl hahahaha but u did amazing

[rabidslugz88]

hello law suit.

[fad1ngfast]

It's not a law suit. It's youtube and he's imitating, not impersonating.

[thehotty92]

dude your fucking awesome (sorry if theres little kids here) but its true =P

[crawwdadd]

Well done. You've reached the point where you should really shave your head!

[crAzyGuY119]

Great Job! How did you make this?

[deaderzombee]

i was a blue man for halloween.. man.. what a task with that spirit gum and all lol.. i feel your pain.. i was sitting there getting painted blue and i was like "now i know what snubby feels like haha"

good work

[RedRobot2006]

Hope to see you in a next blue man GROUP!

good work !

greetings from berlin germany

[geegooman2323]

fantastic job. one of the best bmg vids i've ever seen.

[Zumorimoto]

Question for you. I am currently planning to dress up like a blue man for my school spirit day. Our colors our black and blue, the color schemes perfect and the blue men are just awesome! However my question is it Grease Paint that they use or something else?

[snubbyj]

Hi,

Yes, they use greasepaint and it's from a company called Mehron. I get my makeup from Mehron as well and what's great is that they have a kit on their website called the 'blue person kit' which includes everything you need to go bald and blue.

[Zumorimoto]

Thanks very much. Its very much appreciated. Oh and by the way great job with your performance. If you try I'm pretty sure one day you could be a blue man yourself. :)

[bennybytes]

Nice video! I really enjoyed this... I love seeing others who are into TBG.

[MrSlither]

what do you use for mallets

[snubbyj]

They are made of paint stirrers and foam (from a garden knee pad cushion thing).

[bubblywums]

I love this, seriously I so! It has to be one of the most creative and beautiful sounding instruments ever. I'd love to play one of those!

You'd definitely fit in well with the BMG. xD

[DAI6LE]

dude, great job with the songs, the get-up and the pvc instrument

lets hear some mortal kombat bro!

that'd be siiiiiiiiick

[koolio15523]

Wow! maybe you can be in the blue man group someday! I saw them a couple months ago and you can fit right in!

[zwitsalgirl]

Hey,

I just saw your clips and I'm amazed. Keep it up and maybe we see you in the theater with th Blue Man!! xxx Ysa (from NL so your international famous ;) )

[ShinmaRyuu]

I believe the gloves BMG wears are Blue vinyl or latex gloves you can get at a medical supply website or amazon. Also don't quote me on this but i heard once they use something like baby oil over the grease paint to give it that trademark shinny look under the lights.

[mamamia322]

great work keep on going like this and u might be a blue man someday :)

[cornbreadman26]

hey man i wanted to ask u about some things blue man things just call me at (423) 762 7272

[jimmydoggy]

Thats awesome man. Where did you get the gloves, and the shirt and pants?

[snubbyj]

Gloves...I don't know. I've experimented with a ton of them because it's hard to find the right color and fit.

Shirt and pants...at Target. they're pretty much just pajamas/rest clothes, so they're not terribly hard to find anywhere.

[kolinarium]

this is so great

how many cost it to build this instrument?

[snubbyj]

my main pvc instrument cost me about $300, but i've heard of people creating them under $100.

[surgeonshink]

dang you are really great!!

[TonyGainey]

where did you get that blue grease paint? and what bald cap r u using?

[snubbyj]

on the mehron website (the company that creates blue man group's greasepaint), they sell a "blue person" kit which includes everything like the bald cap and greasepaint to turn into a blue man ;-)
