Instagram- AdamTheWooATW First off I’ll bitch about whatever I want . My channel , my thoughts. Secondly , the point I’m making here is how dumb it is when I can’t bring in a small point and shoot camera that’s smaller than my cell phone which also films video . If “camera equipment” is an issue why are phones allowed . Everyone’s entitled to their opinions on my thoughts , just like I’m allowed to state them
I hear ya Adam. I am in your camp on this. You spent good money and wouldnt cause any harm by just filming. A ton of people will be using their IPhones anyways. There will be plenty of more punk rock flea markets. We appreciate you creating and crusading for us fans. 90 bucks is crazy, maybe for a weekend long or even two days. Not even gonna complain more about merch and drinks
I understand completely what you're saying!! Lord knows the amount of drugs, underage drinking, weapons being brought in ..but a little gimbal?? *Camera stabilizer* ..as a UA-camr myself, I can see how annoying it is 😡😡
As a musician myself for like 50+ years, here’s a good example of how music has become a BUSINESS. No more trading tapes, no more DIY, it’s all about profit and it SUCKS. Totally agree with everything you’ve said here Adam👍
old people spend whatever it takes to relive their youth. Nosebleed Rolling Stones seats at a football stadium are like $300 bucks. People interested in ST or Rancid or Dropkick etc are all 40, 50, 60 years old and can afford it. I saw a lot of those bands 20-25 years ago and they were ok. I think the best part about punk shows back then were the openers.
@@whatoris9934 Except to Adam's point in this very video - he doesn't take freebies for good comments. He buys tickets when he could probably work free tix in to most every place he goes into.
@@VanInhalin I use to see the dropkicks in the late 90’s when they were just a 4 piece. Rick, Ken, Matt and Mike. Those were the days you could see them in church halls and boys and girls clubs for 5 bucks!
I know these guys are going to make a living but I'd rather remember my punk rock experience and fenders Ballroom in Long Beach or where I only paid $6 to get in even the bands used to be fine with with that punk rock was real
I've never heard you upset in your videos. It's almost refreshing to see you're just human like the rest of us. Keep doing your different videos, just love it.
@@whatoris9934 no. If you actually watch his channel, he never even films actual performances, songs, athletic games, etc. filming a crowd or 3 seconds of any kind of event has always been fair use. He’s well within his right to do that just as the media does it all the time.
@@whatoris9934 This is such a weak take. Adam did away with merch and doesn't take freebies. He could make WAY more $ in so many ways with this kind of following and chooses not to. If anything he'd just be giving the event AND the bands totally free press.
Preach Brother!!! I am a concert photographer and I'll never understand when I have to go put my equipment back in the car, meanwhile everyone in the crowd is taking crappy photos and videos for social media!!
Festivals in general feel like a corporate cash grab. Make you feel like prisoners who are only there to spend money and stand in a crowd "disguised as fun"

Thank you for this. This is one of my fave vlogs you’ve done. All common sense has gone out the window and I appreciate you calling it out as it is and not bending to the ridiculousness.
Dang unreal I remember in the early 00s even, when my band played shows we were GRATEFUL to anyone there with a camera to document it! Footage and good live photos was hard to come by in the punk scene. The times they are a changin. Make sure to treat yourself in Vegas the rest of your trip, the national atomic testing museum is AWESOME! Take it easy bro and safe travels 🤘🏼
You vlog practically everyday and are barely ever visibly upset on camera. I don’t understand anyone being put off by it. Honestly, you could be 10000% in the wrong in a given situation and you still have the right to vlog that human experience because your channel I feel is about that. Tomorrow’s a new day!
Adam, so sorry for this bad experience in Vegas. And, as a Denverite, really sorry for your Coors Field experience too. The "rules" for average people like us defy logic. Having one of those "bad" days myself and having to justify being "in the right" is EXHAUSTING. ALWAYS behind you, showing support! 👏👊🙋🏼♀️💙

We've watched you over the years more than any "real press media" TV and online combined....one of the most down to earth people out there and stay true to who you are! Their loss!
That was my first show back after Covid, the tour opener in Minnesota. No vaccination requirement because it was outdoors, but I certainly wouldn't have attended if they were requiring it.
I'd love to see the Philly Captain watching this video. He'd totally crack up when you offered understanding to the event organizers for their need to pay a large hired staff to tell you to put your camera away! 😂😂😅 I thought you were going to offer conciliation about understanding the 90 dollar fee, but it was the best dig of them all!

Part of the reason merch is so expensive is because a lot of venues are charging the bands a % on each merch item sold now. Bands are getting screwed by venues/ticket vendors just as much as fans.
Adam, don't be so butt hurt just adapt Put your camera back in the car And use your phone it's no big deal You may have got some great footage while you're in there Now we will never know.
Absolutely spot on there Adam. One of your best videos for full on reaction to something so dumb and pointless, which seems to be the norm nowadays sadly. In the UK we call these people "jobsworth". They cant see past a list and use their brains to break free. Keep doing what you do Adam as the world needs your reality.
Thumbs down on this vid because “whining” is such a waste. Count your blessings that you were even able to go to the event to begin with. If you read the disclaimer on the website when ordering tickets. You’d probably caught the note about “no dslr cameras” and saved yourself the effort of even going in the first place. The most disappointing part of all this. With your UA-cam platform. You could’ve done more to make things right? Go into the venue with just your cellphone. Talk to others who had the same trouble with the cameras. Get others reaction to the situation on video to share to the world. I attended a show at house of blues years ago when it was still downtown Disney. I think it was Social D? Waited in line for an hour. Only to be told I could not enter with my chain wallet. Because it was a safety issue. So I took my chain off, and walked it back to my car. Others in line saw what happened. And began stuffing their chains and studs in their shoes, pants and whatever. Finally got into the show, and I became a narc. Everyone I saw that got past security when what I couldn’t, I called them out to make things fair for those who actually followed the protocol such as myself. Times changed, and people stopped wearing studs and what not because they could be used as a weapon, and weren’t allowed at a lot of venues in the Orlando area. Now and days. It’s all about money. Only the venue staff and other commercial grade videographers can film high quality vids for profit. Not you with your little UA-cam channel. America has gone to the dogs. Hence why I moved from there over 10 years ago now and never looked back. Watch your channel and others like it just to see what us all going on these days in my old home town. And sadly it ain’t getting better no matter what I watch.😂
manfrotto is so rebellious, manfrotto is punk rock. It's funny that they don't allow small cameras in, when most platforms, especially youtube, have copyright strikes and any monetization would be blocked thereof. It's ridiculous how much seeing live music costs so much these days also. Thanks for showing us around vegas. Looking forward to where you will take us while you're out in that area.
it's not ridiculous, broadway plays on and off broadway are a fortune b/c of the people involved. It's an entire production with dozens if not hundreds of crew workers. IT costs a lot of money from the permits to pull on a show, to transportation (look up rental costs of vehicles for tour) and so much more. Often times even at $40 a ticket smaller bands ARE LOSING MONEY going out on tour. YES it does suck EVERYTHING is more expensive in 2023 however would you work for free?
i can understand your frustrations , you traveled and spent money . plus looking forward to seeing some bands i remember having some of these issues once when i went to a concert . hopefully you can reset your day an be able to still have fun an enjoy while your in Las vagas
Rules are rule whether you agree or not. You are there by choice. I could understand the frustration if this was government law. If you want in there are rules you have to follow.😊
I feel your pain, Adam. I've been attending concerts since 1970. I wish that I could pinpoint the time when certain concertgoers f'ed it up for the rest of us. Stones at Altamont in 1969? We may not have the same musical tastes, yet I think we share the love for music.
Thanks for the rant! It's totally a case of skewed priorities . I'm a photographer and had media badge to cover a rodeo star',s last ride at NFR. The casino management forbid me to shoot anywhere on the property except some lame balcony area. They sent a security guard to watch me and disrupt our shoot like every five minutes. He also forbade me to even point my camera at the lobby area of the stadium. Meanwhile some rodeo fans came by and they were able to shoot anywhere they wanted with their phones, and they even took selfies with the rodeo star, and honestly probably got better footage than me. It was one of the worst shoots in my career. Contrast that to when I shot a rodeo at MSG in New York, where they gave me full access to the stadium, even the locker rooms, and even the bull pen. They even let influencers in to sensitive areas with their manfrottos... no problems... I guess it's a vegas thing... maybe has to do with the casino security... IDK. But your rant is totally justified!
Adam I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been turned away from places because of my DSLR I can’t imagine the frustration with having the G7x and not being able film bc of stupid rules. These kind of rules do leave a bad taste in your mouth . Keep up the good stuff man love the honesty
Blame streaming on why stuff so expensive. The only way they can make money is selling merch. (A lot of times the venues even take a cut of their merch sales)
Used to live in Henderson Nevada back in the day. It was cool being a kid and living that close to Vegas. Got to see so many cool things, i remember going to The Excalibur and getting my picture taken with a screen used Michael Keaton Batmobile. Or standing outside the mirage and watching The Volcano, definitely have some great memories of Vegas!
I thought the same thing. At a festival like this, I can imagine the bands are probably relying more on merch sales than their "cut" of the ticket sales. I went to a Cold concert two weeks ago, the tickets were $25 and the shirts were $30. I bought a shirt because it was exclusive to the tour and I wanted to support the band.
Totally agree with you Adam, it's so ridiculous to say no camera equipment and then allow phones in, so many smart phones have professional quality cameras now, they are better quality than a lot of actual point and shoot cameras. They were definitely not giving off a punk rock vibe. I hate when something like this ruins your whole experience. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day. Love your videos.
If smartphones are so good then he should just bring in his smartphone. He can afford the best one anyway. Security in these events isn't getting trained on what camera to draw the line at. They are just assuming that any dedicated handheld camera these days is a more serious camera. No one really uses any dedicated camera anymore that aren't at least prosumer level quality because cell phones are so good so it isn't really an unreasonable assumption. The real problem is they should have been consistent with the rules in the first place.
I was there all three nights and overall, it was a good experience. I did NOT wait for the barrier to get fixed, glad to hear that it took so long for them to comeback on cuz I did not want to waste my time. Also, on the final night I lost my car keys inside the venue and When I tried to go back in to look for them, the security gave me such a difficult time. I was with my girlfriend and my 6-month old daughter and the security there gave two F's about us being stranded out there late at night in downtown Vegas.
That is a ridiculous rule and I understand your frustration especially when you pay good money sucks that happened Adam keep doing what you do and posting what you enjoy. Head out to Cali and go meet up with Scott and make some fantastic videos together. I remember the ball game it was during the Stanley cup playoffs last year
Very cool that you were in guttermouth, I listened to them when I was growing up, and also started watching this channel before the daily woo even started. Very interesting how these two things in my life have have somehow connected. Also, the only concert big" concert I've ever been to where the T-Shirt was less than $30 was Weird Al last year in Vegas.
YOU tell them Adam!! I total understand. I felt that way with Disney World in April. I felt like security was giving me the third degree every time I brought my gimbal stabilizer for my cell phone. One security guy even ask if the bottom was pepper spray. 😮 I am sure they see lots of vloggers go into Disney and they are going to bother me. I just got aggravated after this happening to me twice I just stopped taking it into the parks.
Some of these rules at venues and festivals are just crazy. I won't be going to State Farm Stadium in Phx anymore, if i can help it, because of their insane rules. You're lucky if you can walk in with the clothes you're wearing. A concert there would have to be a once in a lifetime, must-see for me to go back there. I totally sympathize with you. It's gotten so out of control. The way I handled my last experience there, I complied and went in, concert was ok, and just vowed to never go back. It definitely wasn't worth $400+ to not go in for me. It's like they say "Come pay a bunch of money to see these awesome bands, but having any kind of fun is prohibited." 😂 There's so many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to these shows that it has just become unbearable for anyone trying to attend. I don't know what we do to get these corporations in check, but what they're doing isn't working.
Hi Adam 👋☺️ glade to see you in the video in Vegas and getting the chance to see the Punk Rock museum 🤘i first saw it on Daze with Jordan the Lion. He was there they had a guy doing the tour around, he would be the best cause he knows his stuff
Lots of good bands. Sloppy Seconds are funny, I seen Suicidal Tendencies and Madball a few years ago at house of blues and Suicidal had Dave Lombardo from Slayer on drums. And I seen the Damned during their 40 year anniversary tour, awesome show.
My Dad took our kids to Magic Kingdom today and we all thought of you. The kids kept saying "HERE COMES THE MONORAIL!" and "THERE GOES THE MONORAIL!" Hope your trip gets better dude!🤘
I remember the Denver incident very well. You’d never been to Coors Field and paid to see a game, and they told you, you could have your camera. Yet EVERYONE has a cell phone 🤔 I’ll never understand that !
Love this Adam! 😊 You are 100% correct! Went to a concert about a month ago in an Auditorium, and they told us, no video. Concert starts, everyone starts video recording, and it was obvious! Sometimes you gotta let off some steam, and you will probably get more views on this, than you expected! You don’t want my opinion on Vegas! It will reveal itself! Last place on my bucket list, and then I would rather be home! 😉 Your still at the top of my UA-camrs! Always have been! This Vlog definitely is awesome! 😊 Keep being Adam! 👍🏻
It is quite a let down when that happens and I don’t blame you Addim you are very calm about it I’m sorry to hear about your dilemma, especially when you spend some money on it already and just get a kick in the butt from that well, you got all my support. Keep on the good blogs. They’re very very interesting.
I goota be honest....i understand what Adam is saying...why hes upset...totally get it. But.....problem is hes letting not just ruin the experience of the concert...hes letting it destroy the entire day......the vlog....which is his job as he's said many times....the planned time in Vegas......so letting it kill his time onthe road.......everything. i live in Vegas...worked as a street performer for quite a few years......and not a sign holder...but an actual performer. And trust me.......street performers went through some really stupid rules...really stupid!!! And for years day after day....so not just once. But i didnt let it ruin everything else for the day...if i had i would have never made any money on any day. So i had two choices......sulk.....or do what i do and do my job. I like Adam...have been watching for years....but this...kinda changed my perspective on him a little.....it was like a little kid being told NO in a toy store and going home and just sulking all day. I really hate it to sound like an insult......because again....i like him and his content....i will say that to anyone who asks.....but i thought he was more of an adult about things....and it just came across as a very juvenile rant. And yes...it is his channel as he said...his content....no arguing that....you can do what you want. But anytime you put something out like this.. especially something you take pride in doing...and i believe he does do that...its obvious. But anytime you put something out there....and especially something so out of the norm for you.....people will react good and bad. Again...not trying to insult....just...wondering if i've had the wrong perception of him over the years. Anyway...just my thoughs.
I get frustrated too...had the same issue at the neon museum in Las Vegas. My cell phone had a higher resolution over the night vision camera they would not let me in with. Denied. The day that punk died. Lol
Looks like your Canon has some dirt inside the lens, like the last one you had. Time to replace it again? Why not just use your iPhone for filming? The footage you showed from the previous night actually looked better than what you record with the Canon.
I think it's good to rant our frustrations once in a while..its healthy. But as a viewer watching 21 mins of it..not so much exciting but glad u let it out .. now pivot and have fun ur in vegas 😊👍
I make a lot of videos on Fremont Street and this has bern an issue with the small tripods. Its happened to me a few times as well as other creators. It's usually a security guard that doesn't understand the regulations regarding professional filming vs vlogging.
Lol! I’m sorry you were snubbed and wasted $90. But I appreciate very much your stance. Past camera fiascos and all that, there’s an air of idiotic red tape surrounding so many issues that just don’t make any damn common sense. I often throw my fist in the air in frustration about things. Just make it make sense. G’day Adam. Hope it gets better! ☀️
I totally agree, I have just watched the Rancid set from last night and everyone has their phones out, it's a joke them not letting you in. Modern phones today are so sophisticated. I'm looking at upgrading my 5 year old iPhone this year and I am looking forward to what interesting new things the camera and video will do. I'm quite old school where I don't like going to a gig and you have to look through a forest of arms with everyone with their phones out, but I know it's now a fact of modern life. I get it you're mad you weren't doing anything wrong. People smuggle booze and illegal substances in and they don't get stopped. I don't get that, why spend lots of money on your favourite band to be off your head and not enjoy the whole experience of "being there" . Sorry that's my little rant.
Love your videos man but you come off like a huge toddler in this, were you not aware of the various security reasons vegas is so tight? Did you forget what happened or do you think the world revolved around you?
This reminded me of an rv trip. I booked a few stste camp grounds in south carolina en route to florida. The last stop was supposed to be a beach camp site . I arrived and checked in and our beach spot was a mile from the beach walking along a major roadway. My wife and daughter walked to the beach. I was livid and sat in the camper and sulked. I wasnt even interested in setting up the grill to make dinner. I think we ate mac and cheese and left the next day even though we had a 3 day reservation.

@@drudi1234 he’s also bitter his punk rock days amounted to nothing
If ever there was a 50 year old man who needed to go to Disneyland today, it must have been you Adam.
Ouch…
How is that “ouch”? They’re saying he deserves to go somewhere to make him happy after the stress.
Sorry to hear about your negative experience Adam. You are amazing. ❤
$40 for a tshirt is high. On the other hand have you seen apparel prices at any of the Disney stores?
Two different animals.
“Normal people get crapped on”. So true Adam… so true!!
Adam, don't be so butt hurt just adapt Put your camera back in the car And use your phone it's no big deal You may have got some great footage while you're in there Now we will never know.
The soothing voice of the woo always helps my day!
Absolutely spot on there Adam. One of your best videos for full on reaction to something so dumb and pointless, which seems to be the norm nowadays sadly. In the UK we call these people "jobsworth". They cant see past a list and use their brains to break free. Keep doing what you do Adam as the world needs your reality.
I’m with you Adam. That was beyond ridiculous how they couldn’t let you film with the small camera you had.
Thank you for the 29 minutes. I’ll never get back.
This episode was refreshing! Loved hearing you just tell it how it is/was! 👏
Old man yelling at cloud vibe 😂😂
Haha true . We all have our moments I suppose
Thumbs down on this vid because “whining” is such a waste.
Count your blessings that you were even able to go to the event to begin with.
If you read the disclaimer on the website when ordering tickets. You’d probably caught the note about “no dslr cameras” and saved yourself the effort of even going in the first place.
The most disappointing part of all this. With your UA-cam platform. You could’ve done more to make things right? Go into the venue with just your cellphone. Talk to others who had the same trouble with the cameras. Get others reaction to the situation on video to share to the world.
I attended a show at house of blues years ago when it was still downtown Disney. I think it was Social D? Waited in line for an hour. Only to be told I could not enter with my chain wallet. Because it was a safety issue.
So I took my chain off, and walked it back to my car. Others in line saw what happened. And began stuffing their chains and studs in their shoes, pants and whatever.
Finally got into the show, and I became a narc. Everyone I saw that got past security when what I couldn’t, I called them out to make things fair for those who actually followed the protocol such as myself.
Times changed, and people stopped wearing studs and what not because they could be used as a weapon, and weren’t allowed at a lot of venues in the Orlando area.
Now and days. It’s all about money. Only the venue staff and other commercial grade videographers can film high quality vids for profit. Not you with your little UA-cam channel.
America has gone to the dogs. Hence why I moved from there over 10 years ago now and never looked back.
Watch your channel and others like it just to see what us all going on these days in my old home town.
And sadly it ain’t getting better no matter what I watch.😂
manfrotto is so rebellious, manfrotto is punk rock.
It's funny that they don't allow small cameras in, when most platforms, especially youtube, have copyright strikes and any monetization would be blocked thereof. It's ridiculous how much seeing live music costs so much these days also.
Thanks for showing us around vegas. Looking forward to where you will take us while you're out in that area.
it's not ridiculous, broadway plays on and off broadway are a fortune b/c of the people involved. It's an entire production with dozens if not hundreds of crew workers. IT costs a lot of money from the permits to pull on a show, to transportation (look up rental costs of vehicles for tour) and so much more. Often times even at $40 a ticket smaller bands ARE LOSING MONEY going out on tour. YES it does suck EVERYTHING is more expensive in 2023 however would you work for free?
I think he needs to make a Manfrotto bumper sticker Adam the woo style. 😊.
“ We gotta UNITE!! “ 👏🏻👏🏻😜 We love you Adam! 😊🤞🏻💙
i can understand your frustrations , you traveled and spent money . plus looking forward to seeing some bands i remember having some of these issues once when i went to a concert . hopefully you can reset your day an be able to still have fun an enjoy while your in Las vagas
Rules are rule whether you agree or not. You are there by choice. I could understand the frustration if this was government law. If you want in there are rules you have to follow.😊
And I didn’t follow them .
I agree that event rules don't always make sense either that's why I don't to many events anymore. Great video either way! Thanks for the reply.
I feel your pain, Adam. I've been attending concerts since 1970. I wish that I could pinpoint the time when certain concertgoers f'ed it up for the rest of us. Stones at Altamont in 1969? We may not have the same musical tastes, yet I think we share the love for music.
Thanks for the rant! It's totally a case of skewed priorities . I'm a photographer and had media badge to cover a rodeo star',s last ride at NFR. The casino management forbid me to shoot anywhere on the property except some lame balcony area. They sent a security guard to watch me and disrupt our shoot like every five minutes. He also forbade me to even point my camera at the lobby area of the stadium. Meanwhile some rodeo fans came by and they were able to shoot anywhere they wanted with their phones, and they even took selfies with the rodeo star, and honestly probably got better footage than me. It was one of the worst shoots in my career. Contrast that to when I shot a rodeo at MSG in New York, where they gave me full access to the stadium, even the locker rooms, and even the bull pen. They even let influencers in to sensitive areas with their manfrottos... no problems... I guess it's a vegas thing... maybe has to do with the casino security... IDK. But your rant is totally justified!
Adam I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been turned away from places because of my DSLR I can’t imagine the frustration with having the G7x and not being able film bc of stupid rules. These kind of rules do leave a bad taste in your mouth . Keep up the good stuff man love the honesty
Can't read signs or something?
Man, an Adam the Woo rant is weird, but you cant look away.
It's a very gentle rant. Adam, hope you got a good night's sleep and at least saw the Punk Rock Museum.
Blame streaming on why stuff so expensive. The only way they can make money is selling merch. (A lot of times the venues even take a cut of their merch sales)
Used to live in Henderson Nevada back in the day. It was cool being a kid and living that close to Vegas. Got to see so many cool things, i remember going to The Excalibur and getting my picture taken with a screen used Michael Keaton Batmobile. Or standing outside the mirage and watching The Volcano, definitely have some great memories of Vegas!
Watching for years but made it a bigger deal than should have everything is overpriced and missed Dropkick
I thought the same thing. At a festival like this, I can imagine the bands are probably relying more on merch sales than their "cut" of the ticket sales. I went to a Cold concert two weeks ago, the tickets were $25 and the shirts were $30. I bought a shirt because it was exclusive to the tour and I wanted to support the band.
Festivals are for teenagers.
Also, punk is not counter-culture anymore.
Rage on-behalf-of-the Machine.
Totally agree with you Adam, it's so ridiculous to say no camera equipment and then allow phones in, so many smart phones have professional quality cameras now, they are better quality than a lot of actual point and shoot cameras. They were definitely not giving off a punk rock vibe. I hate when something like this ruins your whole experience. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day. Love your videos.
If smartphones are so good then he should just bring in his smartphone. He can afford the best one anyway. Security in these events isn't getting trained on what camera to draw the line at. They are just assuming that any dedicated handheld camera these days is a more serious camera. No one really uses any dedicated camera anymore that aren't at least prosumer level quality because cell phones are so good so it isn't really an unreasonable assumption.
The real problem is they should have been consistent with the rules in the first place.
It's there decision the bands probably agreed due to copyright laws
Great points made! Love your video's! Thanks for sharing!
I was there all three nights and overall, it was a good experience. I did NOT wait for the barrier to get fixed, glad to hear that it took so long for them to comeback on cuz I did not want to waste my time. Also, on the final night I lost my car keys inside the venue and When I tried to go back in to look for them, the security gave me such a difficult time. I was with my girlfriend and my 6-month old daughter and the security there gave two F's about us being stranded out there late at night in downtown Vegas.
That is a ridiculous rule and I understand your frustration especially when you pay good money sucks that happened Adam keep doing what you do and posting what you enjoy. Head out to Cali and go meet up with Scott and make some fantastic videos together. I remember the ball game it was during the Stanley cup playoffs last year
Learn how to write
Very cool that you were in guttermouth, I listened to them when I was growing up, and also started watching this channel before the daily woo even started. Very interesting how these two things in my life have have somehow connected.
Also, the only concert big" concert I've ever been to where the T-Shirt was less than $30 was Weird Al last year in Vegas.
YOU tell them Adam!! I total understand. I felt that way with Disney World in April. I felt like security was giving me the third degree every time I brought my gimbal stabilizer for my cell phone. One security guy even ask if the bottom was pepper spray. 😮 I am sure they see lots of vloggers go into Disney and they are going to bother me. I just got aggravated after this happening to me twice I just stopped taking it into the parks.
Fist up to the normal folk 😂 Adam, you’re the best!! I needed the humor this morning! Normal people UNITE!!!
Absolutely!! Bless him!! He had me laughing there at the end 😂 !! Fist up!
As prices go, think of Vegas like Disney World, it’s all a theme park 😂
Great to see you are human Adam. I loved the video. Keep up the great work.
So glad you mentioned the koko mantis, always think of that when I see a giant mantis..which isn’t often but it’s weird it’s happened more than once 😂
It’s not often you are disappointed with things. This shall be interesting
Some of these rules at venues and festivals are just crazy. I won't be going to State Farm Stadium in Phx anymore, if i can help it, because of their insane rules. You're lucky if you can walk in with the clothes you're wearing. A concert there would have to be a once in a lifetime, must-see for me to go back there. I totally sympathize with you. It's gotten so out of control. The way I handled my last experience there, I complied and went in, concert was ok, and just vowed to never go back. It definitely wasn't worth $400+ to not go in for me. It's like they say "Come pay a bunch of money to see these awesome bands, but having any kind of fun is prohibited." 😂 There's so many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to these shows that it has just become unbearable for anyone trying to attend. I don't know what we do to get these corporations in check, but what they're doing isn't working.
Yeah Adam! Speak your mind and the truth brother! Everyone has something to say about everything.
Your the man!
Looking well my friend! Keep it up
Hi Adam 👋☺️ glade to see you in the video in Vegas and getting the chance to see the Punk Rock museum 🤘i first saw it on Daze with Jordan the Lion. He was there they had a guy doing the tour around, he would be the best cause he knows his stuff
Lots of good bands. Sloppy Seconds are funny, I seen Suicidal Tendencies and Madball a few years ago at house of blues and Suicidal had Dave Lombardo from Slayer on drums. And I seen the Damned during their 40 year anniversary tour, awesome show.
Influencer entitlement is real in this video
hello again Adam , another cool interesting video , really well done and thank you 😊
Wow! I really enjoy your videos so much, thank you. To see this side of you Mr. Woo is double wow!
My Dad took our kids to Magic Kingdom today and we all thought of you. The kids kept saying "HERE COMES THE MONORAIL!" and "THERE GOES THE MONORAIL!" Hope your trip gets better dude!🤘
I remember the Denver incident very well. You’d never been to Coors Field and paid to see a game, and they told you, you could have your camera. Yet EVERYONE has a cell phone 🤔 I’ll never understand that !
Adam was getting major $H1t from Avalanche fans for his TB hat way before the game. I think the camera was the last straw for him
Love this Adam! 😊 You are 100% correct! Went to a concert about a month ago in an Auditorium, and they told us, no video. Concert starts, everyone starts video recording, and it was obvious! Sometimes you gotta let off some steam, and you will probably get more views on this, than you expected! You don’t want my opinion on Vegas! It will reveal itself! Last place on my bucket list, and then I would rather be home! 😉 Your still at the top of my UA-camrs! Always have been! This Vlog definitely is awesome! 😊 Keep being Adam! 👍🏻
It is quite a let down when that happens and I don’t blame you Addim you are very calm about it I’m sorry to hear about your dilemma, especially when you spend some money on it already and just get a kick in the butt from that well, you got all my support. Keep on the good blogs. They’re very very interesting.
I totally get how mad you are Adam, This is how mad I get when I see Natalie/Daphne in the thumbnail
I goota be honest....i understand what Adam is saying...why hes upset...totally get it. But.....problem is hes letting not just ruin the experience of the concert...hes letting it destroy the entire day......the vlog....which is his job as he's said many times....the planned time in Vegas......so letting it kill his time onthe road.......everything. i live in Vegas...worked as a street performer for quite a few years......and not a sign holder...but an actual performer.
And trust me.......street performers went through some really stupid rules...really stupid!!! And for years day after day....so not just once. But i didnt let it ruin everything else for the day...if i had i would have never made any money on any day. So i had two choices......sulk.....or do what i do and do my job.
I like Adam...have been watching for years....but this...kinda changed my perspective on him a little.....it was like a little kid being told NO in a toy store and going home and just sulking all day. I really hate it to sound like an insult......because again....i like him and his content....i will say that to anyone who asks.....but i thought he was more of an adult about things....and it just came across as a very juvenile rant. And yes...it is his channel as he said...his content....no arguing that....you can do what you want. But anytime you put something out like this.. especially something you take pride in doing...and i believe he does do that...its obvious.
But anytime you put something out there....and especially something so out of the norm for you.....people will react good and bad. Again...not trying to insult....just...wondering if i've had the wrong perception of him over the years. Anyway...just my thoughs.
Happy Tuesday Adam 😎 Glad to have you visiting my home 👍
You might have had a bazooka attachment for that camera mount! Sorry your trip didn’t go as planned Adam. Perhaps a teaching moment.😮
This was so hilarious hearing you complain like this.
Either punk is dead or we’re just old…maybe a little bit of both.
It's all about money, just like everything else. No worries, everything is being ruined anyways
I am definitely hearing an old guy saying "Back in my day...."
I get frustrated too...had the same issue at the neon museum in Las Vegas. My cell phone had a higher resolution over the night vision camera they would not let me in with. Denied.
The day that punk died. Lol
Looks like your Canon has some dirt inside the lens, like the last one you had. Time to replace it again? Why not just use your iPhone for filming? The footage you showed from the previous night actually looked better than what you record with the Canon.
It’s more the point of the whole thing . Once I’m pissed I just bail
@@TheDailyWoo I get that. I was referring to further videos. Why not just use the phone?
I think it's good to rant our frustrations once in a while..its healthy. But as a viewer watching 21 mins of it..not so much exciting but glad u let it out .. now pivot and have fun ur in vegas 😊👍
Love this video. I used to live in Vegas, and everytime youre there, I get all home sick.
I make a lot of videos on Fremont Street and this has bern an issue with the small tripods. Its happened to me a few times as well as other creators. It's usually a security guard that doesn't understand the regulations regarding professional filming vs vlogging.
Wow that’s an insane line up of legendary bands from my childhood. It’s like Coachella but with actual good music. ❤
soooo... is Disney now "KISS?" 😃
Adam I feel your frustration my friend. Don’t let it change who you are. ❤😅
Want some cheese with that whine? Rules are rules. Learn to deal with it.
Travel videos are Adam’s best videos.
I agree with you 100%! Adam is at his best when he is on the road.
It's OK Adam. Let it roll off your back. Find something else unusual and quirky to show us. We love that stuff! Big hugs! ❤️
😀
gotta say... this video is one of the better ones I've seen. Real Adam.
Would you like some cheese.
Lol! I’m sorry you were snubbed and wasted $90. But I appreciate very much your stance. Past camera fiascos and all that, there’s an air of idiotic red tape surrounding so many issues that just don’t make any damn common sense. I often throw my fist in the air in frustration about things. Just make it make sense. G’day Adam. Hope it gets better! ☀️
Thank you for sharing your Vegas video!
Man, I dont think I've seen Bad Religion, in close to 20 years. I'd love to see them again. Great video Adam, even though it did no go as planned.
I guess the bands are charging Disney prices for Tshirts🤪
The spoiled brat has spoken.
I don't think I've ever seen you like this, Adam... Awesome! 😆😆😆
I totally agree, I have just watched the Rancid set from last night and everyone has their phones out, it's a joke them not letting you in. Modern phones today are so sophisticated. I'm looking at upgrading my 5 year old iPhone this year and I am looking forward to what interesting new things the camera and video will do. I'm quite old school where I don't like going to a gig and you have to look through a forest of arms with everyone with their phones out, but I know it's now a fact of modern life. I get it you're mad you weren't doing anything wrong.
People smuggle booze and illegal substances in and they don't get stopped. I don't get that, why spend lots of money on your favourite band to be off your head and not enjoy the whole experience of "being there" . Sorry that's my little rant.
Why did you see Rancid? Do you support men who marry children?
Love your videos man but you come off like a huge toddler in this, were you not aware of the various security reasons vegas is so tight? Did you forget what happened or do you think the world revolved around you?
It's 2023 ...bands got to make money. They barely make money off touring so merch is their bread and butter. You buy DVC....don't bitch.
This reminded me of an rv trip. I booked a few stste camp grounds in south carolina en route to florida.
The last stop was supposed to be a beach camp site . I arrived and checked in and our beach spot was a mile from the beach walking along a major roadway.
My wife and daughter walked to the beach. I was livid and sat in the camper and sulked.
I wasnt even interested in setting up the grill to make dinner.
I think we ate mac and cheese and left the next day even though we had a 3 day reservation.
