Monty Python (wiki), the popular sketch show from Britain that aired in the early 70s has taken revenge on “Youtubers” by having their own channel. This is their statement:
For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It’s time for us to take matters into our own hands.
However, being the nice chaps that they are (they said so themselves), it all turned out good, just watch the following video to see what’s on the table. I only have 2 words for you, FREE and HIGH QUALITY (or is that 3 words?).
Arnel Pineda was just a regular singer for a local band in the Philippines, singing in the clubs with his band, The Zoo.
However all these changed late last year when the legendary band Journey was looking for a new frontman after their replacement singer backed out of the band after a year. Their original lead singer, Steve Augeri was diagnosed with a throat infection that took out his voice.
So the band wanted someone new, one of the member took to the internet to find a solution, specifically youtube. He was impressed with Arnel’s vocal talents as the videos of him covering songs from his band Journey, Aerosmith, Queen and other great bands played on his computer.
It didn’t take long for them to contact him. I’d think it was faster for Arnel to accept their offer to be Journey’s frontman.
It was a dream come true for Arnel. Previously he would cover songs from the band, now he’s the lead singer of the band. He’ll have youtube to thank and the fan who uploaded his performances online.
Here’s Arnel singing one of Journey’s famous song, Open Arms.
This is really applicable! Watch the video below and see how confuse an idiot can be haha.
