I'm confused, Holden.
Do you understand how fantastic your videos used to be?
Your recent vids come close sometimes but for the most part they come off as Holden-vids-by-the-numbers.
Your old stuff had oodles of easy brilliance. Recently you seem like Weezer after Pinkerton. Sure it's still Weezer. The guitars are packed with distortion and Rivers is still singin', but, the music is mediocre at best. If they'd have come out with the music they make now, first, they'd have remained a forgotten quartet somewhere in Cali.
I just watched "Living At Home" and "How To Meet People At the Library" and "For Some Must Push and Some Must Pull" and laughed my ass off. What happened to you?
I hate asking. I suspect several people will be tempted to jump on my case, as is par for the course, but, fuck, you used to make class A vids. They were fresh, alive, and you seemed to be really LIVING in them. Nowadays it too often comes off like some tired routine you've practiced too often to care about.
Okay. (fjell grabs his square-foot archery target and places it over his chest.) Go ahead everyone. Steam roll me.

the only thing i have to say to fjell is:
whats up with the weezer references??
comparing john to weezer- cali to you tube/the internet, for that matter- seems a bit strange.
and fjell, i hate to be the one to break it to you, but the term "nowadays" is one of the most hackneyed words of all time. besides, wasnt it just two videos ago you were cleaning off your keyboard with a kleenex??

1. I failed that D.A.R.E. program. Never showed up for the final test. I don't know what it entailed, but it probably had something to do with those photos... I never got my snappy black T-Shirt that declared me drug free and sane. That's when things started slipping free of my control. That was 6th grade.
2. Officer "Hines" and a few of his Paul Bunyan Drug Task force cohorts busted a meth lab some dudes had set up behind my home. My buddy Zak and I were chased away from the lab months earlier with a couple of shotgun blasts. I only wish I could make this up.
