Blunty Does Bris-Vegas!

I took a spur of the moment trip to Brisbane after watching "long way down" a few nights ago, I took with me a Sony camera I'm reviewing to put it through its paces, so I thought I'd try my hand at travel blogging.... in my own way of course.
(review vid of the camera is coming with all the details a couple days after this video if you're curious)

I know this video will certainly be "too long, didn't watch" for many people with 3 minute internet video attention spans and that's cool, I get it, so this video is for ME and for the handful of you who may enjoy this change of pace from my usual stuff.

I saw a Kookaburra too... and some kinda lizard guy. also Ducks.

Also featured is my visit to the aussie gamer famous Mana Bar, one of the owners of which is Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw - the Zero Punctuation guy

I'll probably do a separate video with more detail about my experience at the Manabar soon too, it was fantastic. ;)

Hi Blunty what did you use to record the footage ?

[Blunty3000]

@theaussiegeek A few bits were the iPhone... the rest were from a camera I'll be publishing a review on early next week. keep an eye out ;)

Ha, slightly hungover after tasting ALL our drinks? :P

[Blunty3000]

@TheManaBar Well, yes... All of your specialist menu drunks, AND some of bar-tender-Tony's own tasty concoctions... AND about thee hours of drinking down the road after you folks closed ;) like I said.... EPIC ;)

Gotta say Blunty, but 2 months ago I'd have been one of the "Too long, did not watch" crowd. But having gotten into longer vlogs and therefore being more than prepared for a long vid, I very much enjoyed the change of pace. I don't watch many "Travel vlogs" but if this is different from them, I don't think I'd be that interested. Especially as you've a standard in your general videography I've come to love and most others tend to wimp out on achieving.

Great work as usual dude.

[Blunty3000]

@Valomorn Glad you enjoyed it.... and yeah, I've no real wish to emulate most "travel bloggers" out there, most of them come off like complete twats... I'm sure they're nice people, most people who love travel are... but the common presentation/writing style of most of that type of content just shits me ;)

Why does the word "Bris Vegas" remember me of Wall Street?

@foresthat Would you just quit using that retarded emoticon?

[foresthat]

@Harlei3 He was talking about his trouble talking with women and as a member of the female gender, who can relate, I was giving my thoughts. Since my user name is a bit androgynous I felt mentioning my gender was relevant, as well as being a bit flirty (hey why not ^_^)

[Harlei3]

@foresthat Does it matter if you're a girl? Does being a girl have anything to do with what you had to say?

[foresthat]

... very engaging personality. Its a shame I live in the UK (I'm a girl btw). Would be cool to see more travel blogs in the future. Chow from a fangirl. ^_^

Hey there, thanks for the tour around your old stomping ground, I found the vid rather relaxing to watch. It was nice seeing some different sides of you, you are probably one of the most genuine people I've seen on you tube (or a very convincing ploy). As a fellow socially inept individual the only thing you can do is improve with practice, just talking to people as much as you can and with time it comes more naturally. You're definitely not unattractive, rather cute actually and you have a ...

I want to go now, you should do more of these videos

@TheManaBar Can I come to your bar :(
