      @HA4 YT Erin, who played Upgrade, left to pursue her career in acting but left on good terms (mostly everyone has who's left) and even returned for a special anniversary show for SPG

    I love how The Spine went from an overly sassy automaton to just a grumpy old automaton who needs a break. And the fact that Upgrade's reaction to The Spine being too sassy was to scream at him.
    I love her so much--

    Rabbit's winding up arm noise syncs up perfectly with Upgrade's twisting of her hips. I honestly thought there was some sort of noise machine that spooled up when she did that. If his arms weren't in frame, I would never have noticed. Also love that that's her "I'm happy I'm right and I'm so pretty" expression. These guys are great

    The Spine wasn't actually built with a titanium alloy spine. He received that from the government in 1955, along with a multitude of highly classified weapons. His original spine consisted of smokestacks something like those on a locomotive.

    • @afriendlyreminder6072
      @afriendlyreminder6072 3 роки тому +59

      @@mrbusinesss1 It's not so much bad blood just complicated history:
      Erin never really was too into singing and didn't want to dedicate herself to something like spg, she left the band a few years after the first album came out. The Bennet twins still have a pretty good relationship with her
      John is where things got icky. Throughout the recording of the 2 cent show, he would often miss deadlines, be frequently late, and just generally saw it as the original hobby it started out as rather than a full-time gig. The band eventually decided to let him go, which John agreed to and they parted ways. However, the community thought there was something bigger at work and a lot of speculation came as if they hated each other. They worked together on the 10th anniversary but Michael wouldn't wish to work with him again due to his timliness.
      I genuinely don't understand why people think there is bad blood between them and Sam. Sam had specifically told the twins that he would be a temporary fix to the hole that was left by Jon. He gave the band ample notice for when he would leave, and he as an artist should be allowed to pursue his own thing without speculation. Anything I've heard has been rumor and judging by the podcast he seems to have a good relationship with the Bennet twins still.
      Really the only "bad blood" s between the twins and John and even then it was simply that John didn't want that to be his life and his non-dedication to it was hurting the twins, who saw it as a living. Nobody was truly in the wrong, it was just simple differences that got in the way

      @@Dudeliness I know this comment is old, but what the heck you're talking about? The Jon wasn't kicked out, he left due to commitment issues, and also he now pursues a photographer career and has a family, so good for him. Yes, it's a shame he left, but we can't do anything about it. He's having a good life I hope, and we shouldn't take it away from anyone. And about Rabbit, do you realize that in a timeline where she doesn't transition there's a possibility she'd kill herself, as many trans people do when they can't be their true selves? Would that be a good timeline? Without Rabbit due to suicide, and probably even without SPG at all, as other band members, especially The Spine, would not handle that well. The timeline where she can be the woman she's always been is the best, and if you don't agree, eat dirt you transphobe

      I mean, this is improvised while busking for a small audience, featuring different characters and done for different reasons (done spontaneously for the joy of it, rather than delivering a formal performance everyone paid upfront to see).
      Ultimately this only has a superficial connection to their touring act.
