Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

[Dez]

Pretty nasty video for sure.

I thought it was nice

They suck!

Man I was in Oklahoma for work a couple weeks ago and at a bar and totally not fitting in with the overall vibe… I saw a guy with a primus shirt and was thrilled, I tossed out a “primus sucks” and he just glared at me and kept walking

 

[Southpaw-DD]

I absolutely love cake but the only time I saw them live we walked out. Idk if that’s supposed to be the singers schtick or if he was having some sort of episode but it was absolutely terrible vibes from him and his ranting and raving between songs

That is a shame - he was chill and comical for the show I went to, thank goodness. I have low tolerance for lead singers going on rants, too.

That’s encouraging to hear… Maybe will give them another shot!!

He obviously wasn't a real Primus fan.

 

[spawnofthesith]

Should have shouted "poser!" as he walked away.

He obviously wasn't a real Primus fan.

I was certainly thinking that

 

[Frodebro]

And just to clarify, it wasn’t political or anything in this case… just very very weird (in a bad way) and supremely negative energy

It doesn't matter what the topic of the rant is, younger bands have to maintain a higher performance/entertainment standard than the drugged-out freak shows of the seventies and eighties because they don't have album royalties as their primary source of income. That's one situation where "Kids These Days" have it much tougher than the older generations did.

File under, "Things I'll never be able to unsee."

A guy who might apparently also be a musician is so desperate to get his follower count out of the two digit range that he'll do that on video, using his own face and everything.

Grown-ass people will do absolutely anything for a click these days. It's incredible.

 

[JiveTurkey]

Does he do the voice of Sylvester?

 

[Dom Mcsweeney]

using his own face and everything

helix own face confirmed

Pretty nasty video for sure.

There's something very grim about that. A guy who might apparently also be a musician is so desperate to get his follower count out of the two digit range that he'll do that on video, using his own face and everything. It's like an especially bad but miserable looking busker you feel tempted to pity tip.

Let’s just hope line 6 does not give him a free one to try. That would be sad whoever that guy is.

I agree it’s pretty sad. I personally have no time for BS. Idiots like that the pay attention to them to even watch them for one second unfortunately I did when this was posted and I regret it.

 

[JiveTurkey]

Lots of room for spittle every time he says Line 6 Helix Stadium though.

 

[KingsXJJ]

I don’t think that’s a remote possibility even on Gilligan’s Island.

 

[timbuck3]

Please line 6 Do not put out a video demoing the stadium like this video. It’s the worst ever to show a product

As a society, it would be quite beneficial if we internalized the habit of not making stupid people famous.

It's very tempting watching something ridiculous and sharing them to our friends saying "look at this stupid guy, doing this stupid thing", but the less you do that, if we all did it, the less likely we would keep seeing these people anywhere. There's too much garbage-sharing nowadays.

It's like in that Simpsons treehouse of terror episode where Lisa sings about not looking at the monsters.

I know, the vast majority will keep on sharing this crap, but changes start on each individual.

...Hmm, I wanted it to sound kinda funny but I think it resulted more like serious xD

I didn’t know Andy Dick played guitar.

This was pure entertainment. Guy who has made a lot of gear mistakes, is selling most of his gear, will never take free gear from a manufacturer, had a Helix which he enjoyed and sold, and apparently isn't going to buy anything new either. 79 whole subscribers and 4 videos to his channel. I'm almost embarrassed that I contributed to a view, but it was a guilty pleasure break on a busy work day.
