I know you didn't record about your grandfather's passing for attention, but I express sympathy to any human going through it.
I'm sorry to hear you've lost someone close to you - old afe or not, Tank. ❤
Much love to you and your family.
Yeah, felt a little odd to add "i'm not looking for sympathy or anything.." to that as it's obviously sad news, regardless of if others have experienced the same or not. I would never think anyone mentioning "oh I just lost a close family member recently" was saying so for any sort of attention seek, more like "I'm a little sad now and this is why" so people can understand why they might not be whatever their usual mood is :)
I get what you're saying. It didn't feel odd to me though. Rather, it made sense in his growing notoriety That was just humble, honest Tank speaking from a vulnerable position. :)
Yeah, I only say it because in today's state of the internet, you never know what anyone's intentions are. I think a lot of you that watch this channel know my personality by now, but ya never know. Haha
Don't apologize for ending the vlog on the content you did. You are showing what life is like on the road, good, bad, and ugly. Not showing the major points of this tour would feel akin to false advertisement. Life will be life, and we're here watching it and living it vicariously through you, the good, bad, and ugly.
In Germany we have a saying which translates to: „There’s no bad weather, only bad clothing.“
Put on a rain jacket!
I kept an eye out for you in Stuttgart. Hopefully you had an amazing time in Germany 😊
My family and I lived there for 11 years- I tell my friends that all the time! We are the family that goes to amusement parks when it’s zero degrees because people don’t go out!
Also, one of my German friends would say “ if you’re going to wait for good weather in Germany you’re going to be waiting a long time”
Probably why Germany also has a very active techwear culture (partially cause of Acronym being headquartered in Germany)
I’m so sorry for your loss Tank, sending you all the love and well wishes in the tough time ahead❤️. For the past year, my Grandma (who I live with, she’s only in her mid 60’s) has been absolutely struggling with issue after issue. She had triple bypass surgery on her heart, then contracted colitis while in hospital and nearly died, now a year on she’s dealing with a growth/lesion on her pituitary gland that’s causing all kinds of problems, and almost nothing is being done about it by the major doctors, I’ve never been more terrified of losing her in my entire life. Through that whole time your content and Electric Callboy (among many other fantastic bands) have helped me face what is the most heavy feelings of anxiety and sadness I’ve felt in a long time. I wish I could also be lucky enough to meet and hang out with you like other Discord members but being an Aussie that’s highly unlikely, which makes me really sad. Even so, thank you so very much for all the amazing content and for being genuinely one of the most entertaining and sweet people I’ve ever seen. Much love as always from Australia mate, you fuckin’ rock!! (And once again sending you love after your loss ❤❤).
All the best for your grandma! Hope she gets better soon!
Now I need to add a comment as well. First of all I offer my condolences for your loss!
But that's not the reason I'm writing. A person I follow on several social medias who is a tech community manager for Microsoft once got a comment stating "Hey Scott, please focus on technical content, because that's why I am following you!". His reply to that neatly summarizes why I follow people: "If you follow someone online, you follow the whole person not just one aspect of their personality".
With that said: I came to watch a video how a day of a tour manager looks like and what goes on behind the scenes of a big show. I stayed, because I really like you and how you approach these vlogs. It's not just a window in the life of a big tour, but a window into the life of a person. Thank you for sharing all of this - I appreciate it a lot!
Honestly if you moved to Germany, I don't think any of us would be too upset. It's hard to find a band that treats you like family. Even though you are working for them, they don't act like it. They act like you are all equals. I've worked with a lot of bands that don't really appreciate the crew or want to get to know the crew at all. I know they would be honored to have you with them full time and we would all be proud of you if you did it. I'm sorry for your loss man. Keep up these amazing videos and if you are able to do you think you could get the guys to give you a gear tour?
There is a Full Show gear runden by a Channel called mothergrid
I lost my grandma over a year ago and I feel you Tank. She was also in her 90s with basically no quality of life left and I had such mixed feelings about it because on one hand I loved her of course but her passing was also a bit of a relief just to know she's not suffering anymore. Keep your head up man, you're keeping the family line running strong :)
It doesn't matter that "everybody has family that passes away", it still sucks. A lot. Love to you and to your family, brother man. Glad you are with your second family.
@@TE-LE-GRAM_ME_VIA_TankTheTech. Please, and I'm serious here, kiss my ass, you disgusting scammer. I've flushed things I respect more than you. Go get a life that doesn't involve victimizing other people, you lowlife turd.
Tank, I lived in Germany for 6 years (us army) and these vlogs have brought so many memories back.
I laughed at you being teased about your love for kinder schokolade, I recently found kinder chocolate minis at Walmart and have been eating them 5 at a time 😉 very yummy chocolate! When we first arrived in Germany in 1988 our sponsors told us if you wait for a sunny day you’ll never do anything. So we dressed for the weather, got our umbrellas and visited as much as we could. In winter 1988-89 I didn’t see the sun for months. Quite depressing as a Florida girl but spring was glorious. I loved living in Germany as did my family, (200-03) we see pictures of Heidelberg and go “home”. If I could go back to live I certainly would. The other experience we share that’s not so great is unexpectedly losing my father in law when we we had only been there 3 and a half months. I’m sorry to hear of your grandfather and I send you biggest hugs. I’ve been watching your channel since your first day and I always enjoy listening to you, you are a bright spot in the day and watching your behind the scenes road crew videos have been super cool to watch. Just know you are very appreciated and very well loved by your community. Have a wonderful day!
I find it really amazing through your vlogs I have the impression I would hang out with you in person. I don't get the feeling that you're playing a role, you seem like an absolutely lovely person. Thank you.
I´m sorry for your loss. I think it was a good thing to share it, because sometimes People seem to forget that there is a average Person behind the UA-camr, Musician or Artist.
Entertaining as always, but the end... That's tough man, but thank you for sharing this side of the touring life too.
Sorry for your loss. I've been in Germany for almost 9 years now and have lost both my grandmother and my dad in that time. It's not easy, no matter where you're living at the time. 💜
Apropos living in Germany, if you guys ever do seriously consider moving here and have any questions about the process, I'd be happy to help. I moved here under slightly different circumstances, but bureaucracy is bureaucracy. 😆
Damn Tank, I'm sorry for your loss. I understand your feelings about it though. While I was living in Japan my grandmother passed away. It just sucks when you can't be there for the rest of your family during it. Hopefully you'll at least be able to attend the funeral. Thank you for sharing such a personal thing with us.
Watching these vlogs brings me a vicarious joy. My life is incredibly mundane, and I don't have the skill or will to do the kind of things you're doing to but to have seen the awesome journey you've been on for the last 3 years or so is incredible.
I'm sorry for your loss. Grief is very personal and we all deal with it how we do. It's ok to not be ok.
Thanks for all the content and giving us an insight into what road life is like. You're a legend.
Ps: induction hobs are the absolute best. When we moved house the first thing I did was buy one because I missed my old one and couldn't go back to electric/gas. They work by passing a current through copper, hence the buzzing. They're ace.
Its tough to miss things. I hope your grandmother is well, and that they realise you are with them in thoughts. I adore the way you are able to show your emotions in this medium, and I am sure it helps you with it as well - if it doesn't, you really dont have to share such private moments :)
Also, as a german I can highly promote the act of taking a walk in the rain. Make sure you prepare warm, soft clothes for your return and wear appropriate rain gear (jacket, boots, hat) but the smell of nature during and after rain is the most beautiful thing I can think of that is so easy to experience.
Thank you again for doing these. Especially for showing how they do setup now - it was a bit different back when I was touring but only because things change over time (lolol basically like a analog vs. digital kind of thing), but my husband now understands what I was doing and how we all became a 'family' in a way. These have been absolutely amazing and my husband is now definitely a big Electric Callboy music fan. Best to you, and all the hard working techs, for the absolutely fantastic shows and of course the group for the incredible music and performances. Thank you all so much for all you do! Vielen Dank für alles, was Sie alle tun! (Hopefully I got that right, Lolol 😄)
Thank you very much for being open and amazing Tank. I'm really sorry for you and your family's loss.
And on the topic of bands missing things and canceling shows and such, I remember when EC came to visit Norway (where I live) Kevin couldn't make the show due to their second child being born.... Yeah that sucked for me as a fan, we had a show, and Nico and the rest of the band killed it for sure, but it sucked not having Kevin there.... But I would never ever want him to miss something like that just to give us a show. They managed to go on with out Kevin, but if they couldn't have done that I would much rather I miss a show, or they reschedule, than him missing that important moment.
So to you Tank, everyone in Electric Callboy and their crew, and all the roadies and artists that have sacrificed so much for us fans. Thank you, thank you so very much.
Yes, everyone dies. That doesn't make it hurt any less. Even if you know it's coming. I knew my dad was dieing, and I was naive enough to believe I was ready for it. It still sucked bad. Telling people isn't about getting sympathy, it's about a shared human experience. A painful one, a very painful one. It helps knowing that people understand, and you are not standing alone.
17:37 I respect the wraping. It's wraped in a way where you don't tear the paper when opening it, which is awesome. My brain is too weird to just rip open the wrapping paper, so this is sooo great to see!
Rest easy, Grandpa Tank. You will surely be missed. Much love to you and yours, Tank. ❤ The boxes you got were so sweet. The band, crew, and following really are some of the best people out there!
I can totally empathize with you. I was serving in the Army, stationed in Germany in the early 90's when my grandfather passed away. I also get the weeks of overcast weather, but I still love Germany, and with a German wife go back every few years to visit family.
I feel on the "Its not much to do, but its also time" My family has a saying (might be universal) that "Death is never fun, but some people are allowed to go, when its their time."
You shouldn't need to apologize for personal stuff like this.
Regardless of what's normal or what you get used to, it's always sad.
Take care of yourself, and your family Tank. You're just human
❤
My deepest condolences Tank. It's never easy..
But on a different note, it seems you slowly making the decision to move. If you have a driving licence, besides getting recognised here in Germany, I would wholeheartedly advise you,to go and get a few lessons in a driving school, concerning driving in the Autobahn. If you're not used to driving at really high velocities, taking lessons about it, is going to make your life a lot easier.
Condolences on your loss. I know it's like "this happens to everyone" and "it's a part of life", but that doesn't make it easier in the moment when you're freshly dealing with the grief. Long ago I promised myself I'd let myself cry and be sad over losses like this, because that's a big part of the healing process that a lot of guys don't let themselves have because it seems "weak". Everyone handles these things differently, don't ever apologize for expressing it however you feel comfortable to do. We're all only human. Thanks for letting us be a part of your world, and I hope the comments here help in some way or another.
Damn, that Leatherman is rad. What a nice present to give to your crew! I'm so sorry for your loss. Losing someone close to you is always tough but being half way round the world when it happens must be a really strange feeling.
to the last part - i can imagine it's something else if you are halfway around the world - it makes it harder to talk/share with the rest of the family and/or friends - i hope the camera could give you the feeling that we are listening and "there for you" in a strange way
TankTheTech becomes more and more TankTheTekk. And i like this!
The culture shocks are fun to see on top of the electric shenanigans 😂
Never apologise for anything, sad you missed his passing at such a distance. Love following your vlogs.
The Scandinavian weather is very much like the German weather. We also say there is no bad weather, just bad clothing.
❤❤❤❤ You’ve always shown your true self and your tru heart to us and we love you for that. Deepest condolences on the loss of your grandfather -I’m glad you were close. Much love Jenn
Tank, thank you for sharing these moments with us, even the hard ones. Virtual hugs to you and your family
your grandpa is now your guiding angel from above ... after rain - the sun returns!
Sorry to hear about your grandfather, Tank. It's really nice you were close to him throughout your life. Thoughts are with you mate.
To improve your breakfast I'd suggest to add some onions, Paprika (bell pepper) and Champignons (mushrooms) and if you like some sausage to your eggs. Stay safe and healthy mate!
As always really nice to watch. My condolences for your loss man thats tough. Wish you all the best.
Tank, you live your life to the fullest. Your grandfather understands what it takes to be a man and stick by your word in doing the job. All a man has is his word and a firm handshake brother. Keep up the great work 👍 love your channel.
Tank i am sorry about your grandfather.
I am a huge Fan since you recorded your first reaction to Exkimo Callboy. Since that Day i loved you and the Boys.
Ehre und Liebe aus Kassel Deutschland❤
Sorry for your loss tank 🙏 Thank you for sharing with us. I'm sure others will agree, we love your videos and are enjoying the ride with you. Thank you again! Take care Tank
Tanky so sorry for your loss. The Vlog - GR8 as always!
Hei man, sure it's normal that we go some day. But it's also normal to be sad and miss our loved ones.
Have my condolences 🕯
So sorry for your loss, Tank. I lost all my grandparents, one when I was 7, another when I was 17, one in my 20’s, and the last in my 30’s. I also lost my dad when I was 9, and my mom just a few years ago. I’m now 42. Never easy to lose loved ones, but you’ll always have cherished memories.
Also, shoutout to @SixStringTV. Kaylen is a cool dude. He’s really passionate about music and guitars - and I love when he destroys crappy guitar and audio gear. 😂😂😂
Also, German men sit to pee?! That I’ve never heard. Gonna have to ask Kaylen to clarify that one lol.
Love you, Tank, and thanks for sharing such a real part of your life.
my sincere condolences ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss, Tank. Sure, it's life, but it still hurts. And that's okay. I lost my grandmother 1½ year ago, she was a big part in my upbringing and the pain is still there. She was in her 80's with a lot of health issues so it wasn't a surprise but no one is still never prepared enough.
Thank you for being open, and sharing, sending much love to you and your family ❤
Thanks for what You are doing here with those vlogs.
Sorry for your loss. Take care!
Much Love for you all
So Sorry for your loss brotha. Prayers and thoughts for your family. But always love the vlogs!
I'm so sorry for your loss! Sending lots of love to you and your family ♥️
Thank you for sharing this with us. ❤
Just loving your vlogs Tank… so sorry for your loss.
It doesn't come as a surprise that you're thinking about moving to Germany/Europe. I've been saying for a while now that you lucked into the best job with some of the best people in the world, so it makes sense. You and your family have my sympathies on the loss of your grandfather.
Condolences from our family to yours brother. Honour and strength.
You and your family deserve all the best♥
I’m sorry for your loss. Sending good vibes to you and your family.
I'm sorry for your loss, Tank

Thank you for sharing another great vlog and so sorry for your loss

Been enjoying these tour vlogs more than just about anything else I´ve seen on yt for a good while, so thank you. And, obviously, sorry to hear about your grandpa passing away.
Sorry for your loss sending hugs
sorry for your loss and thank you for the vlog
Our condolences to your family.
Electric Callboy should make a tour shirt that says “I’m just here for Tank” 😀
A "where is tank?"-shirt with just 100 identical mini pics of tank.
@@JuanCarlosChiliPimmel even better suggestion.
TANKKNO
Sorry for your loss, Tank. We love your content, very entertaining. I always get excited when your new stuff drops.
Sorry for your loss Tank. Back in the 90`s when i was a soldier .My 105 year old great grandfather past While i was away on mission and i could not attend the service. I was sad about not being there, but also i was there in spirit , if that makes any sens. Time Will always heal. Thanks for sharing ALL of it !
These VLOGs has been best thing in YT for a while. Thank you for sharing your side of roadie life.
Thank you so much for the vlogs tank it truly means a lot to see the raw footage of what it take to be someone who is on the road and travels for work and to get a better understanding of how life is. I am very sorry to hear about your loss while you were away working. I hope you and your loved ones take the time to heal and mourn. You truly are amazing at what you do. Thank you so much for all that you do. You rock.
Have really been enjoying this series of videos. Also because of you I gave these guys a listen and absolutely love them. Not just their music, but their pure, I don’t know, joy. Also makes me wish I pursued actual work in stage crew. I’ve played in bands, done a little stage lighting, helped set up/tear down. And now miss the hell out of it. Seeing it all from your perspective is awesome. Thank you.
I fricking LOVE these Roadie Vlogs. It feels like you're actually there with tank haha. Dankeschön! Also very sorry for your loss ❤️
Sorry bout your loss. I can only imagine how rough it could be in these scenario's.
Thank you though for these blog videos. I have enjoyed them a lot.
Im sorry for your loss 😢 much love for you and your family
Condolences about your Grandpa. All we can do is hold onto the memories we have man. Keep strong and know he is looking down on you with a big smile and approval not only for your hard work ethic on the job, but also what you do for your family
Sorry for your loss.
Also funny thing about copyright clams I got a copyright strike of a live show of my cousins band. They were covering the Gorillaz, from what it was flagged as is a testament to how well they performed the song lol
Sorry for your loss! ❤ ❤
Thank you for sharing! My sympathies to you and your family!
You are a great guy, Tank! Hope you find some time to process and keep on rocking!
Been touring for most of my career. It's always unsettling to get news like that on the road. All you can do is keep your support group close. Have a good outlet to sort out your feelings and keep moving forward.
Much Love Tank ❤
The effort you put into editing the vlogs is definitely noticed and appreciated. Great work! I figured it would take a lot of time, but 11 hours is a crazy amount. But it shows and makes for incredible videos
Thank you very much for sharing the good things and sadly also the bad things while far away from home! To be a silent viewer of all the stuff during a concert, things you would never know without you, was a ultra pleasure. Hope there will be more in future!!!
My deepest condolences to you and your family, sending you all the love and well wishes in the rough time ahead of you.
❤
I wish you all the best!
Sorry for your loss
My sincere condolances to you and the family.
I only toured 7 yrs ... and in those 7 yrs I missed so much back at home including the passing of My grandfather.. the graduation of my sister...7 yrs of not being there for their birthdays.. it's a tough one being gone but also an experience you won't regret being able to travel.
Sorry for your loss, man. Condolences to you and yours
Sending love four your family and you, having a family member passing away isnt easy ❤️
Tank i am sorry for your loss. I send you and your family the best wishes. May your grandfather rest in peace and may you have the strenght to celebrate his life and cope with the loss.
So sorry for your loss Tank
love you tank
I am so sorry for your loss, but also you're right with what you've said. ❤️
It's also what makes us a human being. You're a wonderful person with the heart in the right place. 😇😌Always keep that in mind. I really love watching your vlogs.
Sorry for your loss man!
Finally able to catch you early. I just wanted to thank you for showing me an incredible Band. Ive been binging Electric Callboy for the past few Days. And i also wanted to say thank you for the Vlogs. The Behind the Scenes Stuff is amazing. Always wanted to Backstage but Life had other Plans.
thank you for sharing the ups and downs of life with people that you’ve never met, or will probably never meet. thank you for showing life.
