June 20/2024. After 4 encounters with friendly people who wanted to pose for photos with me, the way too positive vibe had to be balanced out by this mutant, who skateboards in out of nowhere to attack my pedalboard at 17:15
Two expensive pedals destroyed, one cheaper pedal destroyed. Now I can't even sell my pedals for food! I was planning to sell all three this week to keep eating! How will I go on living?
Did he have a bad experience with a pedal? With Santana? Then he runs off like a coward when I walk up to him. I'm not impressed. Doesn't he know that pedal lives matter?
Is mental illness a thing with skateboarders? I had a run in last year with a skateboarder about 40 years old carrying booze, who said I should not be busking here because I was depriving the homeless of a begging spot. Can't argue with that logic.
This asshole wasn't too smart. I got a full description and video uploaded to the Vancouver police dept. Warrant is out. Make this video go viral. Help me find this scum. He’s likely living in downtown Vancouver, or close, likely unemployed, as this was 1:30 pm on a weekday. This is not random. This is planned. Any lead will be rewarded with major bandcamp downloads.
I want to thank Wampler and Keeley for replacing and repairing my pedals, for free. I even got a new improved version of the Dual fusion. Great service, and that's why I stick with companies like this. Pay a bit more for the pedals, but service is worth it. In contrast, companies like Joyo, where you pay $50 a pedal, don't even respond to you when you write them.

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

@angusorvid8840 that’s the amazing thing. I am treated worse than an actual drug dealer or criminal. The hate towards musicians and buskers is fascinating. When I grew up it was a cool thing to play guitar and study to be a musician. I don't know why it became uncool. another busker I know says he was hit with a beer bottle the day before.

@angusorvid8840 Месяц назад

@@shatnershairpiece It's the same here in L.A. Although I've never busked anywhere, I've known many who have, and other street performers including many at Venice Beach. It's a hard way to make a living on a good day. You really have to be on top of your game, all the time. And the unfortunate thing is we live in a society where art and artists are treated with disdain, as though we are doing some disservice to the harmony of the spheres that keep the business world turning. We're treated as though we are in their way. Or, a novelty. "Look! A man playing guitar/saxophone/violin. Let's go bug him! I'm gonna stuff a few bills in his saxophone, see if that'll shut him up. Ha Ha Ha!" We're treated like beggars in a world that doesn't give a hoot about the poor, the unfortunate, and the creative. Society has become crass and uncultured. I don't know the situation in Canada regarding school music programs, but they've all but eliminated them here in the states. Only the very wealthy school districts have music programs. When I was in school even a poor kid like me could still learn piano, or if we played trumpet or violin, use an instrument on load from the school, which many of my friends did. I was lucky in that my parents gave me a Yamaha trumpet when I was nine, and a guitar when I turned eleven. This harsh attitude towards artists and their art they create comes from a place of barbarity. It's tough to deal with. I hope it can change. I'd love to tell you to keep fighting the good fight. But you shouldn't have to fight. You should be able to get respect simply for being a human being who plays wonderful music.

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

great comment. I agree.. Arts and culture is dead in Vancouver. live music scene died ten years ago. people are now happy with AI music and it may take years for actual human made music to be cool again. I have had kids on the street take my picture and tell me they had never seen a live musician before. no one even understands what a musician is anymore. they can’t be bothered to spend years themselves learning an instrument, takes way too much time. video games and tik tok are more fun. you know you’re living in a clown world when somebody making a reaction video about some song they just heard gets 100,000 clicks while me improvising the song on the street gets 300 clicks. lowest common denominator garbage is what people consume.

@angusorvid8840 Месяц назад

@@shatnershairpiece Young people don't even know where fruits and vegetables come from, like hearts of palm and artichokes. They don't dedicate themselves to long-term disciplines or crafts like learning an instrument or writing because they are addicted to the instant dopamine high that comes with pushing a button and letting AI do everything. One reason learning an instrument is beneficial to children is that it shows them the art of mastery. To master a skill you must be a good student and admit you don't know it all, or anything, and be open to learning. Mastering the guitar, violin, sax, piano, painting, sculpture, teaches you how to learn. Once you understand what it is to be disciplined and follow through you have an advantage in life most people lack. To learn discipline is to learn to control your own mind, your own thought process. Our mind can be our own biggest enemy, or our best friend.

the free hard drugs for all program last year didn’t help. this spot is a teetering battle between ‘art and culture’ (buskers) or being taken over by addicts, psychotics. I know buskers who refuse to play here anymore.

@BSomme Месяц назад

@@shatnershairpiece I see a lot of drugged out peeps in your videos! It must be very disheartening to be surrounded by zombies when your jamming! I can understand why a lot of buskers won't play there anymore! I'm glad you stand your ground and continue to play at that spot! Music is needed in the world! Rock on brother you are greatly appreciated! 🤘😝🤘🎸🎸🎸

I've started to play more often at Canada place, which has lots of security. It can be hit and miss there depending on time of day, but it's almost all tourists and no psychos. I get used to being completely ignored, but being attacked while making music is getting ridiculous. Even a drug dealer at this spot wouldn't be attacked like this.

We need to analyze why the music of Carlos Santana triggered that skateboard boy.

@VE3RKP Месяц назад

I don't think that kid knew you were recording video. Someone out here is going to recognize him and he will meet karma. Good on you to continue to play and not let it bother you much. I hope you made a police report as they too might already know who he is.

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

police have this video and full description.

@nordicpill8855 Месяц назад

This was guaranteed a planned attack. Probably from a Castro Junior loyalist who got angry from reading some of your comments and community posts. I would watch my back in case he'd ever decide to come back! In the meantime, I have liked and commented! I hope the algorithm picks up and spreads this video around so he can get caught! You should post more details about his estimated age, weight, tattoos etc so that we got a better description (video isn't super clear on details).

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

It’s obvious it was planned. entire busker community and skateboard groups, cops, have been given this video and a description.

This guys shredding is tip top! Very melodic. Very tight. Awesome tone. Why this guy is not in a band or touring with the best musicians all over the world is beyond me.

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

glad you enjoy it. I used to be in bands about 10 years ago, but all the clubs closed and there’s no more work. I also found I prefer being on the street because I get to do my own thing and improvise as long as I want and these are things I could never do in a band. if you search RU-vid “the singer’s on tour winking judge’ you can find my instrumental trio gigs.

You're very good! I hear / feel emotion in your playing, and your tone is great! Sorry that jerk smashed your pedals, he definitely was a lunatic. BTW Would you be able to tell me what wireless setup you're using for your guitar? I've got one but it really zaps my tone. Since your tone is still good despite using one, I figure you must have a good one and would be ever so grateful to know which make and model it is so I could look into purchasing one for myself. Thanks in advance, and keep up the shredding :)

Love watching your videos! Your guitar playing is very inspirational! But goddamn what an idiot! I been skateboarding for about 30 years and from what I can tell looking at that guy he probobly uses his skateboard as a transportation around town, so most likely hes probobly not hanging out at the nearest local skatepark. You can see it when he rolls in that he probobly doesn´t have the balance of someone that uses their board for more than going to point A and B. Also he doesn´t seem to have skate shoes on, just regular runnershoes maybe. I could be wrong! I would guess that some sort of local skateboard media related instagram page would be able to find out maybe! Its usually a small community!

@shatnershairpiece Месяц назад

Thanks! I hope the community can help track him down.

Skater wants to be punk rock, but can't rock so you're left with just a punk.

How someone could do this is beyond me. If you really don't want to listen to someone who's sharing their talents with the world, then you're not forced to, just walk the other way and don't bother them. Thank you for continuing to play even with the continuous risk of these psychopaths harassing you. Your music truly does bring some life to this otherwise declining city.

Destroying a pedalboard should be a capital offense. I don't think I can watch this. I've never witnessed a pedalboard attack. Graphic images may be too disturbing. Sorry for your loss. As a pedal lover, this truly breaks my heart.

Is that the same character that turned off your amp while you were playing at a different location? He wore a short skirt and flip flops with 3 or 4 inch thick soles.
