    I was at the Ottobar show. I agree with Shawn, it was such a small, but intimate venue. Baltimore has a ton of unique venues. Great show guys!

  • @pppppffffffmmmmmmmnn
    @pppppffffffmmmmmmmnn Рік тому +7

    Wow, it's heavy handed for Shawn to claim Beetleborgs is nothing more than 'bit' fodder. It's deeply offensive and downright disrespectful to label the show Beetleborgs as a joke. This classic 90s television series holds a special place in the hearts of many fans, myself included, and dismissing it as a mere joke undermines its significance and impact on pop culture.
    First and foremost, Beetleborgs was a show that targeted children and young teens, and it succeeded in captivating its audience with a unique blend of action, comedy, and supernatural elements. While some may argue that the show's humor was cheesy or campy, it's crucial to remember that it was intentionally designed that way to cater to its target demographic. The humor and light-heartedness were part of its charm and helped make it a memorable and enjoyable experience for countless kids during its original run.
    Furthermore, Beetleborgs deserves recognition for its pioneering approach to special effects and practical monster designs. Although the show might not have had the same budget as larger franchises, it made the most of its resources, delivering impressive and imaginative creature designs that were both terrifying and captivating. The team behind the show worked tirelessly to create a world that was filled with excitement and wonder, and for that, they deserve appreciation rather than ridicule.
    Moreover, labeling Beetleborgs as a joke ignores the effort and dedication of the actors and crew members who poured their hearts and souls into making the show a reality. The cast and crew worked diligently to bring their characters to life and entertain the audience, all while facing the challenges that come with producing a television series. To diminish their hard work by calling it a joke is incredibly unfair and disrespectful to their talents and contributions.
    Beyond that, Beetleborgs was part of a lineup of iconic shows that defined an entire era of television. It was one of the pillars of the "tokusatsu" genre, which has a dedicated and passionate fanbase worldwide. To dismiss it as a joke is to disrespect the entire genre and the rich history of Japanese and American collaboration in creating beloved TV shows.
    In conclusion, it is essential to remember that different people find joy in different things, and just because something might not resonate with everyone doesn't give anyone the right to belittle or demean it. Beetleborgs holds a special place in the hearts of many people, and reducing it to a joke is an insult to those who cherish the memories and experiences they had while watching the show.
    Instead of mocking and deriding Beetleborgs, let's celebrate its nostalgic value, its creative efforts, and its influence on the lives of those who grew up with it. Let's foster an environment of appreciation and respect for the diverse forms of entertainment that have touched our lives, rather than tearing them down with thoughtless and offensive remarks.

      The venue was a literal shit hole, security was passed out off drugs presumedly, it was in an extremely sketch part of town, a bar attached had glory hole through the wall of the women’s restrooms (the men’s bathroom was 4 planks of wood outside with a tree growing in it), venue was powered by gas generators, the seating was old school and church chairs/benches, the bathroom was fucked and covered in shit and blood, with syringes laying about, I could keep going but ya get the gist lol.

    • @ExBerian
