best show on youtube

I've said this on all your videos but thank you so much for being a real human being, Dave. It's nice to know someone so successful can be so down to earth. I'm a fan for life. And I never heard of Wyzard until now but DAMN he's good! My brother plays bass so I'll pass this along.

Thank you for all the incredible information. Best show ever. It was inspirational to hear Wyzard talk about all this stuff; however, with all respect, I found it a little annoying that Wyzard got cut off, when he was about to talk about something really interesting about us young producers and engineers being plug-in driven, and I disagree with John Paul Jones overplaying, he fills the gap perfectly and knows when to hold back. Love the show! :)

Wyzard, thank you for that attitude. That smile, that energy.

And of course, thank you to Pensado's to invite that person.

I quit watching Pensado's Place...I could not stand how he kept interrupting folks in mid sentence with another question before they finished their answer, or with stupid crap. For all the useful information you could cut out 50min of the show and not miss a thing..

It's a shame really, it could have been a great show to learn from!

Is there any REAL shows that have the same format around?

Great to see Wyzard plugging brother Harold - awesome drummer/vocalist. A lot of the same mannerisms and expressions. Nice one! A talented family .
