Big D Is Popular
If there is one thing I doubt I’ll ever really understand about the net is the ability to keep something rolling for quite a long time. The video posted above is that of the band Big D and the Kids Table and their video for the song “Little Bitch,” a Specials cover. I posted the video on youtube on May 21, 2006 while in the ASUAF chambers, it was the first thing I had placed on youtube. Since then it has received close to 21,000 views.
I know that isn’t a large number by internet standards, but for 21,000 views of anything that I’ve done is a huge number, despite the fact that I had no role in the recording of the song or creation of the video. For the longest time I thought a record company was going to track me down and have me shot in my sleep over the unauthorized use of the video. If they are still trying to track me down… I live OVER THERE… *pitter patter running away sounds go here*
The only reason I mention this is because about once a week or so I will receive a message telling me that someone has commented on the video and they are ususally positive. Most just mention either the band themselves or some of the other people drinking in the video.
Worst part about the posting of this video is… I did it to show musician Matt Hopper that his poster is located above the left shoulder of the lead singer. He had to of played a show in Tempe, Arizona a short time before Big D got there and shot the video. I’m glad I got that one out into the open after so long.
