Now this is something I might have to watch once I'm off work!

 

I've already seen videos of his "studio" but I'm wondering what details this particular video will go into...

Sounds like some sort of superaids.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

It's a random album title for a lack of a better name.

 

He's also a dope AF musician. I want to attend a concert of his.

I had a feeling that those are overkill.

 

No wonder why linus likes Deadmau5

It's not just his helmet, but also some giant cube. And I'm sure it takes a lot to drive those, since he had a box with two Mac Pros in it just to display the animations, not to render that. Besides, if you can afford it, why not?

Linus finally knows what a REAL Lambo feels like, even if it looks worse then his "lambo" (sorry, not sorry).

As he has a vast collection of cars I think think Jeremy, Richard and James from The Grand Tour should choose 3 of their favorite cars in Deadmu5's collection and do a road trip across Canada in them, making sure though Richard doesn't crash :)

Man, when I glanced at his license plate I thought it had my gamer tag (Feeterican) on it (witch is the only one in the world). I listened to his PC build stream with Maingear and found I really like the fella. I would love to hang with him for a day and bounce ideas back and forth about music and gaming (I've been a drummer for over 20 years and gaming for 12).

And I agree deadmau5 should spend at least 6 weeks jailtime for painting it that way.

I hope it's just a wrap and can be removed and that he wasn't foolish enough to do that with paint and ruin the cars value.

 

also, OK, I forgot about that discussion on that WAN show.

It's a wrap. Pretty sure Lambo did it for him in the factory after the whole "Purrari" scandal.

Yeah... I'm sure it was some stuffy old person at Ferrari that made that call, and I guess from their perspective I kinda understand it if they have literally no context for who he is and what he does, but the proper response in that case would be to get to know him and learn to appreciate with it's actually good for their brand to have the Purrari be a thing rather than send a C&D letter...

 

They turned what could've been an amazing strategic "partnership" with one of the biggest performing artists in the world into a gigantic case of bad press for them. Just goes to show that "sticking to tradition" is a way of the past in many cases...

Add Disney to that list as well... I get the resemblance of Joel's Mau5hat to Mickey Mouse, but Disney and Joel operate business in 2 completely separate business categories, so it really wasn't that smart to sue him over "trademark infringement"... Mind you, Dina La Polt had a fun time winning the case in court, and Joel didn't mind paying to set a precedence so it all worked out.

 

And yes, his Nyan Cat is a custom car wrap that can be removed if he sold the car. Really a shame that Ferrari would cause such terrible PR over something that is entirely within a car owner's rights to do to their car, but I guess they like bad publicity. 

 

Anyway, I'm fully expecting a coffee run with Joel and @LinusTech at some point in the future now. ☕ Don't disappoint me guys. ?️

 

EDIT: Also, he sold his McLaren P1 earlier this year to help pay for Cube2.1 because money.

(P1 Special Editions sell for around $1.15 million dollars, give or take, so you know... money.)

Unfortunately they didn't have time for a covfefe run while Linus was in Toronto - this shoot ended up taking the whole day :(

 

Maybe next time he's out there!!

Alrighty, I guess I'll have to forgive everyone for now... le sigh :P Kidding of course; I'd never actually be butthurt over this. I'll just keep my fingers crossed for a future covfefe run, maybe in the LTT Lambo if Joel ever visits Vancouver.
