Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle, Starset, Kami Kehoe Live Nation Show at iThink Financial Amphitheater

0:04 This is the Adventures of Pipe Man here on W4CY Radio and Talk4TV. Thank God the other night was right near the studios. So it's not bad. It was at the I Think Financial Amphitheater here in West Palm Beach off of Southern. I love that venue. That venue is really cool. And oh my God, I go to that place a lot.

0:44 I think it's the most packed I've seen and I can't remember when. I have videos I took. You guys can check it out on my socials. I took videos of basically... like this endless crowd. Like I was at a music festival, not just a concert. What was cool is four bands played. Here's what's really cool about those four bands that played. Okay. And first I want to say, I want to thank live nation for that because live nation is behind having this show and many other shows that I think financial amphitheater. And they're the reason I was there doing a review of the show. So them, I'm totally thankful for because the, They are badass. Like with this, this was one of the best concerts I've been to. Like it was so amazing. But the thing is, is what's cool is out of the four bands, can you tell me one, okay, I'll mention the four bands to you. Well, one of them's an artist, you know, and band, but, and you tell me which one I never interviewed. Okay, you ready? Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle, Star Set, Kami Kehoe.

2:04 Kami Kehoe. You know what? What the hell is wrong with you? You just edited an interview with her that we just did at one of the festivals. Did I? Yeah. Listen, we're going to have to have a talk after the show because If you don't even know who you're editing, how are you editing them? There's way too many bands with weird names that I can't remember. Well, to be fair, I will be fair that now that Pipe Man Radio Tour is over, just the last two months, there was over 200 interviews. By the way, I just got recognized by Google. Google sent me a notification saying, that congratulated me on doing over 5,000 celebrity and music interviews. Holy shit. It's a wonder I can still talk. Oh my God. But yeah, so I'll give you a little slack there, but not really. But for the sake of the show, I'll give you slack. We'll have a talk after the show. You know, but Yeah, and she is totally cool. I love Cammie, and she's a great artist. And what was really cool was she looked like she was having so much fun up on stage.

3:28 I love when artists are having fun on stage. If they're not having fun, how can I have fun? And she was smiling and having the best time. I just think this lineup for this tour of these four bands was perfect. But before I get to more of Cammie, Since you were wrong, let me give you the correct answer. None, because I've interviewed all four. As a matter of fact, I was trying to remember the last time I interviewed Chevelle, so I Googled it while I was at the show. And I'm like, I just Googled, Pipe Man Radio interviews Chevelle. And you know what the Google AI said? Can you guess that? It's not going to be the same. Did you know that when you Google stuff nowadays with AI, it's never the same answer? I've tested it already. Like I'll do the same search one after another, after another, and it comes up with different answers. So you might not even find the answer I got last night, but it said, oh, Pipe Man has interviewed Chevelle many times.

4:37 I'm like, oh, okay. And then named off all these festivals. Like I had a long list of festivals. He interviewed them here and here and here and here. I'm like, so now I have realized that all my digital assistants, whether it be Alexa. Oh, no, not you. Not you. Goodbye, Alexa. Or Siri. Oh, she gets mad when I call her Siri, too. She's going to give you the silent treatment now. Oh, my God. so she did yesterday she's like I'm not Siri I'm Alexa she said it to me because I was mistakenly saying hey Siri.

5:23 So anyway I did that once and he told me I don't know who that is but if you need me I'll be here. Yeah that's Alexa she does that I gotta stop saying her name man she's gonna pop up again like she's not now she's waiting till the time that she could really ruin the show, but then, you know, Gemini, Claude, all of them. Like if I want to find out stuff about myself, we are like the ultimate lazy. Now we're not even researching other people. We're researching ourselves and the AI knows better than we do. That's that kind of, I think that's proof of the end of humanity. I really kind of think that might be, you know, it's just coming. Oh my God. uh so yeah so okay let me tell you something you know a lot of times you go to concerts and maybe not all the bands are you know like really really good doesn't mean they're bad just like really really good all four bands like were really good but i was talking before about how much fun cammy was having so then afterwards I was, you know, I was out in like the vendor area and she came out and did like a meet and greet with people out there. And every person she was taking a picture with, she was smiling like, and I don't mean smiling, like smiling for the picture. Like she was so happy and have, and I feel so good

6:55 about that. It's so cool that an artist can feel like that after performing and cause they work so hard, man. And, to see her reaction with every single person that stood online waiting just to take a picture with her. The thing is, it's so hard. People don't realize this. It's so hard to smile that long. I've gone to parties where I have to take pictures with multiple people. After three pictures, my smile looks fake. Yeah, and not the case with her because I was sitting there for a while and everybody, she was just totally thrilled about it. and I love that for her and I love that for all the fans because it makes the fans feel good. Like if you go up and you know that they're really like happy to meet you.

7:47 Oh my God. What a feeling that is. So, you know, sometimes bands, they do it so much. It's like, okay, you know, it's like a puppy mill, but she, she was, she, she was like so honored and happy about it. So I love that. And then, They had Star Set, and I love those dudes. They put on a great show. I can't even describe it. You guys got to look at my socials. You see on there, but they're from outer space too. That's why I'm combining this show with the, hey, somebody's calling me, but fuck them. I'm doing a show.

8:29 Did you hear that one? Yeah, I heard the ringtone. Yeah, I forgot to put it on silent, but that's okay. It was probably just a spammer. I should have brought him on the show, actually. But anyway, yeah, they put on such an amazing show with the lights. I mean, they had a setup like headliners have. They had this big structure and all kinds of video and digital stuff. I was talking about this in one of the interviews. Like nowadays, these bands, they can do such cool stuff with the digital, you know, and make such a great performance. I think it's so important too. Like if I want to just watch you play your album, I'll just sit at home and listen to the album. I want a performance.

9:16 And that's the beauty of live music. And every one of these bands like top-notch performances and Star Set, you know, they're all like, from outer space, you know? So it's like this whole cool space show type of thing. And it, it was fricking amazing. And for every single band, the crowd was singing their songs. That doesn't happen. Usually it's usually like maybe the headline or maybe the second band, but never all of them. So that was really cool too. Like it was, I was sitting there and I just kept hearing like the whole crowds, like singing everything that makes my heart feel like so full so full that for that interview we were talking about they're gonna have to wait a little past 20 minutes but then we had Chevelle now I love Chevelle but I have to tell you I've seen Chevelle multiple times at festivals and their own shows this was by far the best show I've ever seen Chevelle do it was freaking amazing like I was so into it again acting like headliners you know and oh my god they were just so good it was unbelievable like I wish I was going to see them again tonight it was that good you know so and they weren't even the headliner either but the crowd was singing their songs too and Again, you guys

10:49 can check out my socials, Pipe Man Radio. And I put up some videos. I'm going to put up all the pictures and videos from the show. And then also, you know, if you missed any part of this show, it will be on my podcast on the Adventures of Pipe Man, Pipe Man in the Pit as well. Both podcasts. You can listen to it. Anywhere you listen to podcasts, if you want to see this, you can go to the Pipe Man Radio YouTube channel, you know, afterwards or W4CY Radio's YouTube channel or Talk4TV' s YouTube channel. And but so, yeah, like and then I was again, I was looking at the crowd. I'm like, this is freaking amazing how many people are here. And like the whole crowd would be singing songs. It's like being around a campfire singing Kumbaya, except better. Because it was Chevelle and all these other bands.

11:45 And then, of course, the headliner, Breaking Benjamin. Oh, my God. No wonder they're the headliner. It was so freaking good. And most of their songs, the whole crowd was singing the whole time. I also love that they had this kind of in their digital production in the video part in the back. they kind of had, it was, it was retro like Nintendo. So like writing was like Nintendo and you know, stuff like that. Uh, and, uh, I think, I think a couple of them might've had that. There was also, I'm trying to remember which band, but one of the bands when they were over, it said, and it might've been breaking Ben. Uh, but I can't remember which one it was. It said game over just like, you would have in the Nintendo game. Oh, no, you know what? I think it was, hmm, there was also Halo. So, yeah.

12:56 There was some cool shit. It was a great show. I'm so thankful I went. I'm thankful it's local to me. It was so much fun. It was, you know, great being there. And I suggest everybody, if you, if they're coming to your town, cause the tour is on now, you need to go to the show, go to live nation, buy your tickets now, because this was what I've done. A lot of shows this year. This was ranks as one of the best of the whole year because of all four bands. They were phenomenal. So once again, thank you live nation. And on that note, I think we're going to have to get to our other spacey interview.

13:41 And basically, so do you want, when I give you the cue, do you want to start or you want me to start? Can you start? You can start. Okay. So maybe, I don't know if we should or not. It's got the intro and the outro. Cause like I said, it's prerecorded. Maybe we could like shape. We'll keep the outro on. And maybe you could get past the intro so people don't have to be bored with the intro. Because they already saw the intro. But I will tell you, go, again, go to wherever you listen to your podcasts. I prefer you go to iHeart because I'm iHeartRadio talent. But you go wherever you want to go. The Avengers, The Pipe Man, Pipe Man in the Pit. And you can see not only a repeat of this show once it posts, but or will listen to, but also all the interviews I've done.

14:38 So if you got time, you can just binge listen to over 5,000 interviews. How long do you think that would take one? I don't know about 300 years. Okay, good. So make sure you eat healthy because you have to last 300 years so you could go through all the interviews, eat healthy, Don't put poison in your body. Don't let anybody else poison you. And go to metal shows and get in the mosh pit. That's the pipe man's prescription for living a long life. Look at William Shatner.

15:19 He did it. If Captain James T. Kirk can start a heavy metal band at 95, you guys can listen to all 5,000 of my interviews. Thank you for listening to The Adventures of Pikeman on W4CY Radio.
