I think with any tour vlogs, the quality of content and the video quality itself isn't even an issue. Switches between phones and proper cameras etc doesn't take away anything from the fact that what we're seeing is 'behind the scenes', which is exciting for any of us watching. structureless tour vlogs are great.
Loved the finger even if I don't know the story behind it. 😄 Also something something algorithm, like, love, greatest, vlog, thumbnail, gristle, podcast, key word, sponsor
Love the vlogs, and even if at times you just have to use your phone without a better lense, etc. I think people wouldn’t mind the various quality changes throughout if it’s genuine and spontaneous. Doesn’t always have to be top notch in that vein. Idk if that makes sense
This shit is so sick every time. So cool to see what you (and the boys) get to do out on the road. Personally keeps me inspired to keep working toward my own goals when seeing others realize their own.
Never seen how a backline for big ass tours/venues like this work, that was fucking fascinating to see! Always love these types of videos and I think you're getting better and better with each one as they come out - not to say they were ever bad, just that I can tell you're really finding your groove behind/in front of the camera and behind the kit. You love to see it! Looking forward to more to come. Good luck on the Japan/Aussie tour!
Is it a coincidence that the lofi track at 3:00 is really close to the fortune teller riff? Love these videos btw, hoping there's one for the Aussie tour with In Hearts Wake
Joined my first band lately and get to play live for the first time ever, your videos are really helping me just chill out and understand everyone can feel stress even if you are a beast on a drum like you. You are inspiring thank you for the content 🫶
Excellent, really enjoyed that. Dont stress about the vlogging, you’re doing great. Plus you can easily make it a nightmare for yourself by doing too much. Touring is hard enough as it is, any behind the scenes footage we get is a privilege as its the closest any of us will ever get! Enjoy the next leg Im sure Japan will be wild!
saw u in luxembourg, didn't realise you are the drummer from stray from the path. i was like "heeey i know that guy! :D" awesome job! you slammed those drums.
I felt that 🖕 at the M logo 😆😆😆😆 You're playing the best cymbals ever made now and honestly your overall sound has evolved since that break up because of such and its way more aggressive yet beautiful sounding and crispy. Especially that new china! Each cymbal has a defined tone compared to your old Meinl setup 🖤⚡️🖤
The Mario epsiode was the episode that really got me as a fan of you Craig. It made me go "okay who is this dude" and then I just became a fan of yours and Stray and here we are now a Patreon and die hard supporter of you and the band 🖤⚡️🖤 Happy New year bud! You're going to slay 2024!!!
More vlog fo sho. I'd like more of the country you're in during the vlog. The snippets of live gig footage are a winner. Man I reckon your supporters love seeing your day to day shizz. Keep it up turtle mush.
4:34 had me dying. anyway, here’s me doing the comment thing to please our algorithm overlords. love the vlog content, dgaf if it’s phone video or fancy camera 🤷🏼♀️
love the vlog! for the next leg of tour maybe just grab your phone when there is a moment you wanna capture, the quality will be sufficient anyways and the barrier will be way lower.
The vlogs are getting better in quality each time, its really cool to see. The Mario practice regime definitely worked your playing was tight! If you do continue to vlog going forward, perhaps you could invest in a more convenient camera set up for 'point and shoot' to capture those candid moments. Either way, all the footage is great, I look forward to more! 🤘
It's just the whole 'behind the scenes of a band on tour'-thing that makes it interesting and cool to watch I guess. Keep doing it without overthinking the whole thing. It makes my evening because now I'm off to rewatch an old episode of the podcast ... Thanks and good luck on the next tour Craig!!
I get what you say about the day before tour. I've been deployed quite a lot, this is the same mindset. I always hated the day before going. Although I plan everything and things are well organized beforehand, I always have this tiny gut sensation of anxiety.
Hey man I love your podcast. I just wanna say please do try the and vlog, I’ve been trying myself but get self conscious with walking around talking to a camera but yours turned out great. I liked the intro then show footage that had you talking in it and flipping back and forth between you talking in the studio. I feel like I rambled on a bit here but I just wanna say great job brother and I’m really looking forward to that Japan vlog!
Loved seeing this. Please document the next tour. Have you thought about a smaller portable video recorder that would be easier to grab than your larger gear? Have to sacrifice quality but would deal with the issue you mentioned at the end. The DJIs are pretty good 👍
Love the videos, can’t wait for Sydney next week. As for a camera bag, I’ve always used gopros for simplicity. They did a Legend GoPro bag and I still have mine and use it all the time. Storage and camera mounting. Might be worth looking to see if they’ve got an updated model.
Just vlog with your phone! I know the quality is not going to be the same but you will not miss any moment for sure. Or you can get a smaller compact camera just for vlogging or smth. Great stuff anyway man. Really love what you do and this video was awesome! Cheers! \m/
Always love the vlogs, and would love to see more of this kind of content as you have capacity to create it. If the cumbersome camera is an impediment, I know personally I ain't too fussed about the video quality for a vlog being Pretty Good instead of Excellent. But also respect for going the extra mile for good images.
I love this. Seeing behind the scenes in this genuine way always puts a smile on my face. Love your band, love your podcast, love what you do, love you.
Looking forward to the next vlog ! I don't know if that's a good idea but maybe vloging on your phone if you can't be bothered to go and get your camera :)
Love these dude. Vlogs are great but even this kinda chat and then share some footage is pretty good too! Also for camera bags I like the shinoda x50. I can get my DSLR a couple of lenses and some day to day stuff in it no problem
Gabe, being on the SFTP Tour and on the Counterparts,Dying Wish, Kublai Khan, Paleface Tour rn and doing vocals. Busy man, respect to him.
the best human and hardest worker
Loved the middle finger towards the Meinl symbol 😂

I look forward to this soooo much. We love watching Craig have a great time.
Anything you get on camera has been sick, love watching the vlogs. Seeing you happy on tour is the sickest thing ever. Stoked to see Japan and AUS!!
Loved the finger even if I don't know the story behind it. 😄
Also something something algorithm, like, love, greatest, vlog, thumbnail, gristle, podcast, key word, sponsor

Wasn't expecting vloggerman 5000 for this tour. Nice surprise
Mario is such a goat that just being around him makes you better drummer
He just makes me feel guilty for not practicing as hard, which helps a lot
@@c0hink176 I tried the hour of double kick and I wanted to cut my legs off at the end. The fact he does that daily as practice is demonic.
The nice gesture towards the Meinl backdrop cracked me up😂😂😂
next vlog maybe in depth IEM insights and MAYBE a mixdown/cut of "what craig hears on stage"? and I might need the downbeat margarita-recipe
Yoo man love this! Phone footage is more than enough! Quality isn't an issue we all love the details.
Love it, Craig! I know vlogging is a pain in the ass but I love the behind the scenes tour stuff and your efforts are appreciated!
This shit is so sick every time. So cool to see what you (and the boys) get to do out on the road. Personally keeps me inspired to keep working toward my own goals when seeing others realize their own.
Love the vlogs, looking forward to seeing more of what it takes to do what you do 💪
Also get a Peak Design 3L sling camera bag. can hold the rig and your phone and a couple of things probably and looks sick. I take mine everywhere.

literallly the best internet personality and the best content!
Absolutely love the content. Local band drummers love watching you show what it's like to do this
practice pays off and its showing man sounded great..keep doing these videos all the love from Egypt \../
Is it a coincidence that the lofi track at 3:00 is really close to the fortune teller riff? Love these videos btw, hoping there's one for the Aussie tour with In Hearts Wake
Love the vlogs. Always entertaining! See you in Adelaide 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Joined my first band lately and get to play live for the first time ever, your videos are really helping me just chill out and understand everyone can feel stress even if you are a beast on a drum like you.
You are inspiring thank you for the content 🫶
more sir x
Any, and all wholesome Stray From The Path content, makes the universe a better place. just a bunch of absolute gems. ty ty Craig.
couldnt agree more, had the same feeling the whole video, love the boys
Excellent, really enjoyed that. Dont stress about the vlogging, you’re doing great. Plus you can easily make it a nightmare for yourself by doing too much.

saw u in luxembourg, didn't realise you are the drummer from stray from the path. i was like "heeey i know that guy! :D" awesome job! you slammed those drums.
Saw Stray at the London gig and agree it was probably the best I’ve seen you guys, you killed it!
Just discovered you guys are doing an Australia run of shows and I can’t make it 😢 broken heart rn
stray was low key the best act on this tour you killed it! Come back to Germany please!!!
The show in Luxembourg was SICK, so glad I got to see you!
Thank you for that Craig, it was lovely to watch 🎉
I felt that 🖕 at the M logo 😆😆😆😆 You're playing the best cymbals ever made now and honestly your overall sound has evolved since that break up because of such and its way more aggressive yet beautiful sounding and crispy. Especially that new china! Each cymbal has a defined tone compared to your old Meinl setup 🖤⚡️🖤
I’m glad the vloggerman5000 is back. More please!
I got emotional seeing you play with MIW, so happy for you man, love these vids soooo much
Seen you guys live in Manchester and was just a surreal experience. 100% coming to another Stray show in the future.
The Mario epsiode was the episode that really got me as a fan of you Craig. It made me go "okay who is this dude" and then I just became a fan of yours and Stray and here we are now a Patreon and die hard supporter of you and the band 🖤⚡️🖤 Happy New year bud! You're going to slay 2024!!!

Jari the merch god got me in for the Brussels date, your playing was solid!
Craig I have to say that this sort of vlog content is without doubt my favourite and is the main reason I watch your videos. Thanks xx
Keen as for the AUS part of the next tour! I know you will smash it in Melbourne!
4:34 had me dying. anyway, here’s me doing the comment thing to please our algorithm overlords. love the vlog content, dgaf if it’s phone video or fancy camera 🤷🏼♀️
love the vlog! for the next leg of tour maybe just grab your phone when there is a moment you wanna capture, the quality will be sufficient anyways and the barrier will be way lower.
Hell yes can't wait for more VLOGS.
Saw you in Leeds at the o2 for the first time, the show was epic loved every second!
The vlogs are getting better in quality each time, its really cool to see. The Mario practice regime definitely worked your playing was tight! If you do continue to vlog going forward, perhaps you could invest in a more convenient camera set up for 'point and shoot' to capture those candid moments.

best vlog to date, from content to the editing
It's just the whole 'behind the scenes of a band on tour'-thing that makes it interesting and cool to watch I guess. Keep doing it without overthinking the whole thing. It makes my evening because now I'm off to rewatch an old episode of the podcast ... Thanks and good luck on the next tour Craig!!
Appreciate the effort! And ofcourse man! Please continue this! 🥲✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Really like how that snare sounds.
saw you in Manchester on this tour, you are a monster on those drums!! will definitely be at a show when SFTP come round again🖤
Never been more excited to watch a vlog in my life😁
I saw you guys in Paris and I thought the show was amazing. The video was great!! Love it
Saw you guys in Leipzig and you absolutely ripped! Stray was the highlight of the evening for me.
Love to know what happened with meinl cause you fuckin LOVED them
Killer playing. Love the vlogs 🤘🏼 keep em coming!

Love seeing my favorite bands play with each other. You living my damn dream

I haven't had a chance to see Stray from the Path live yet but i really enjoy your videos. Time to see SFTP live ;-)
Love the videos, can’t wait for Sydney next week. As for a camera bag, I’ve always used gopros for simplicity. They did a Legend GoPro bag and I still have mine and use it all the time. Storage and camera mounting. Might be worth looking to see if they’ve got an updated model.
Yes, vlog!
Can't wait for Japan, my last trip was right before Covid, serious wanderlust!
love these, would love to see more but i understand how tour life can be a lot.
Just vlog with your phone! I know the quality is not going to be the same but you will not miss any moment for sure. Or you can get a smaller compact camera just for vlogging or smth. Great stuff anyway man. Really love what you do and this video was awesome! Cheers! \m/
See you guys at Download
Love these, Vloggerman5000. Keep em coming
Defo keep making these, love seeing what goes on being the scenes
Saw you at Leeds, was such a sick show Stray and Motionless went hard - absolutely loved it. Hope Beartooth's drummer was okay after that show..
Always love the vlogs, and would love to see more of this kind of content as you have capacity to create it.
If the cumbersome camera is an impediment, I know personally I ain't too fussed about the video quality for a vlog being Pretty Good instead of Excellent. But also respect for going the extra mile for good images.
this was rad, please vlog more for sure. Get a smaller pocket camera or use your phone to just get spur of the moment clips!
Definitely more vlogs for these upcoming tours!
Love this content - def should vlog future tours
This was sick man, you should look at the insta360 x3 action cam so you can film tours easier with a neat lil packed 4k 360 camera i have one myself!
Craig mate, have ya ever tried the stainless filter for the aeropress. I reckon it's the go. Catch ya in Oz mate.
Yes 100% you should keep doing these.
Looked like a dope as tour man! hope to see footage from Japan and Australia !
this tour was so sick. was dope seeing you and motionless become mates they're one of my favourite bands haha, love the vlogs man 🔥
Saw you in Stuttgart, super sick show!
I love this. Seeing behind the scenes in this genuine way always puts a smile on my face. Love your band, love your podcast, love what you do, love you.
I appreciate your commitment to the coffee. I used to bring my French press on tour with me.
Love this. Keep the vlogs coming!
Nice to see the back stage stuff, kit break down!

Boosting the algorithm for vlogman 5000
Really enjoy the vlogs, Craig 🤘
I don't have anything useful to add but I'm commenting so the YT algorithm pushes this sweet vlog.
This is awesome. Please do more.
Another banger Craig! Love the content, cheers!
Keep 'm coming... enjoyed it very much 👍🔥🤘
Love these dude. Vlogs are great but even this kinda chat and then share some footage is pretty good too! Also for camera bags I like the shinoda x50. I can get my DSLR a couple of lenses and some day to day stuff in it no problem
This was super cool to watch!
