That's
right; just a single video for this entry, but why? Well, I guess I
would've had an outdoor video up if I wasn't feeling under the
weather over the weekends, and as for gaming videos, I wasn't able to
get around to it. Thankfully, I did manage to at least get one video
done last week, so let's go ahead and discuss Leo
P [Discussion and Commentary].
Leo
P [Discussion and Commentary]
Well,
I honestly don't really know what to talk about for this entry,
because everything is already pretty much said in the video. I don't
also think I really have much other additional details to mention
either, because the inspiration and desire behind making the video
was also mentioned as well. Well, I guess I can talk about production
of the video and then the future of Lucky Chops itself. The video
itself was actually relatively easy to make. Drawing
the faces did
not
take as much time as I thought, so that was an awesome relief of
something I worried about a little. But of course, audio syncing as
you'll know from reading earlier entries of mine, is something I
dislike and have previously been horrible
at,
but I have since come such a long way! Audio syncing went well for
this video, so it's nothing
like the disastrous garbage you may have seen from earlier in 2016.
Another interesting fact is how lightning quick the video uploaded to
YouTube. Seriously, for this 10 minute video, it only took around 10
minutes for everything to process. Wow! Quite different from the
hours I'd normally have
to
wait, but then again, it is only one video with a few slides, and
static frames, so those are also additional
reasons for why the upload was so quick. Now about Lucky Chops....
Honestly, while the band members
themselves were very understanding, friendly and positive about Leo's
departure, I honestly feel like things might be a little shaky for
them, if the comments on
Facebook, Twitter and Instagram prove to be an accurate indicator. Of
course, people usually naturally HATE
change, so them being disappointed at
first
I guess is
natural, but when you have some people saying things like “Darn! I
bought tickets to see Leo!” or “This band is no good without him”
that's a little concerning, isn't it? I
mean, internet comments aren't everything, but you also have to
remember how passionate these fans are, and how they love to film and
take pictures with the Lucky Chops, so that could be a problem. Now,
the Lucky Chops aren't stupid, so I'm sure they've done their
homework and are aware of what could happen, so one thing's certain
is that they'll now be visiting more countries than ever, and their
talent certainly hasn't disappeared. While many might bemoan the loss
of Leo, you have to remember that he isn't all there is to
the band. Of course, that sentence itself is highly subjective, but
it's true. The other members are bright, talented musicians as well,
so they may actually benefit slightly (or greatly?) by having more
breathing space and more attention directed to them, and will
definitely benefit by no longer having to worry about “mansharing”.
However, as I say in the video, I strongly believe that they should
replace Leo with another talented baritone saxophonist that fits the
group's personality and style. This
is
to fill the void of the bari sax voice many loved,
and
were used to hearing. Certainly not a move to rush, but should be
done sooner
or hopefully not much later.
“What
about Too Many Zooz? What would you say about them?” you might ask.
“Which of the two bands do you think will become bigger?” For the
first question, they'll now have more time to get their work and
projects done, and they'll be able to grow and focus more as a trio
of musicians. For the
2nd
question, I honestly don't know. In fact, I don't even know which of
two bands right now, or back in 2016 I should say, was supposed to be
bigger? Actually
wait, if my memory serves me correct, the answer that question would
be Lucky Chops. Here's why: they have a larger following and views on
social media, they're a larger group to begin with, and have had more
shows and tours than Too Many Zooz. So with that said, they're the
“larger” band of the two, in not just size, but popularity. I'll
conclude this by saying that it'll be interesting to see how both
bands progress, though as you'll know from the video, I am more
biased toward to Too Many Zooz, but I wish good luck for both bands.
Happy
