!First Vlog! Do You Love Food Raves?!

in #life6 years ago


One of the things I do IRL, is host events, and spin tunes. A local spot has gone thru some management change over the last few years, and has caused a slight "storm" of inconsistency in support. I believe I see it leveling out, and is a perfect time to step back on their scene. I worked for the original General Manager, and the current Management is definitely interested in past success stories and pitfalls. I had recently played a show there, and figured it a good time to touch base with them on a few new ideas I had for the area. I've been wanting to get into the chill electronic lounge scene, and hosting dinner shows. Enter Food Rave! I couldn't be more excited to have a couple potential dates in my pocket, and nothing more than one manager meeting standing in my way of finally getting to launch this concept! The managers pitching it for me, to the team, are top members, so I think we are golden! If y'all haven't noticed yet, I love to cook. I also love music and people, especially well planned social events where attitudes or up and happy. Lots of energy. Anyways, y'all will be hearing a lot of behind the scenes updates, and asked questions, if you are willing to chip in! One of the things I love most about the blog world is YOU! The supporter, not follower. I enjoy creating with a team, and some times need smart people to bounce some crazy stuff off of, if you are down. I really appreciate the support thus far, and will forever have a genuine love for what y'all have to offer my perception of the world, so THANK YOU for that! So, if you love food raves, please jump in the comments and lets start a conversation. Have you hosted one? Are you from outside the USA, and from somewhere that hosts food raves? What do I need to remember? Are you an event host? From the Gulf Coast? Would especially love your input. Vegan or Vegetarian? Will need all the angels on ideas and drink pairings! I really want to knock this out of the park. I know I can, and let me preemptively tell you how much I appreciate you joining me on this new adventure. TONS! Much love and 'til next time...

I've never been to a food rave before, it sounds like a great concept and a chance for young tourist attraction.
Vegan and vegetarian ones would be ideal for me. I would be interested in going to these events .. is it because I'm in my mid 20? 😂
You have good points and you sound like a natural vlogger!

Keep it up @mental-extract

Thank you, I think that might just come from as a side effect of a life in performance in one way or another. I don't think it's just we 20-somethings, but it just seems to be relevant to us. We have a different set of values or at least need to stick to them than the parent generations it seems like. I'm sure it happens regularly as the humans evolve, but we just have our perspective to speak from. Well maybe I will be able to take the concept on the road. I love to travel and do shows. So maybe we can come to your town in the future :).

Never heard of a food rave before lol, but I mean, if there's food and music, it sounds like it'd be right up my alley!

Right?! I put a slight spin on the original style or concept of a "food rave," but it works. It's an all too natural marriage. Plenty of other genres do the same thing, but this will have that coordinated show edge. Presentation, experience, and environment. It's like restaurant with live music, meets dinner theater, meets festival community. I'm excited :)

Haha that's awesome dude. Let me know how it goes!

Will do, for sure!

Music rave and music. hehe Sure, why not my friend? If you are passionate about it why not give it a try? It is really the only way to find out. :)

I love to cook for myself. Especially, to be in control with what I put into my body. I am 95% vegan, and 5% vegetarian for about a year now. And, I love it. It has done amazing things for my energy and my body in general. I actually have more energy than I ever had eating meat. Not even close. Vegan all the way for me. :)

I am glad your meeting went well. I hope you get the opportunity to share your music and show off your cooking skills. Keep working toward it and it will come true. :)

Thank you for sharing a piece of your life with us brother. Good luck with everything. Looking forward to your next Vlogs, and hopefully, it will be from one of your rave vegetarian food parties. :)

Have an amazing day. :)

Thank you for swinging by, and the supportive feed back for sure! I'm excited. This place is just too perfect to expo the idea. I've got my fingers crossed and I know y'all have my back, too, lol. It will be fun to start changing local minds on the dietary needs of their body and forum to talk about community projects that help support the transformation. I hope I will get to include the Steemit community live at the first one! That would be too cool.

Yes, @mental-extract goes vlogging!
Don't worry about the looking strange when filming yourself part. I've been vlogging for about a year and it still feel weird to have my camera out in public. It does get easier though.
Quick tip: Tilt your phone to landscape instead of portrait.

Thank you, thank you! I appreciate the support, y'all are awesome. I figured it would, but as you say, will always be there a little, and thank you for the tip. I thought so myself after seeing the results, but couldn't bring myself to completely redo. Cheers!!

The redo is for next time ;). Good thing you didn't do a retake. It often removes the spontaneity from the original.

I also agree with that. Free flow thought!!

Yes. Or fully scripted with the best camera available. But I'm not in that stage yet :)
