Keanu Reeves | Don't Quit Your Day Dream | Fender

[@ravenna6543]

Keanu is a real man's man. Dude is just cool. Buys a motorcycle company so he can ride a bike with a design he wants. Grows a beard, wears that beard in all his movies. Long hair, don't care. Wants to start a band, starts one and Fender eventually sponsors them. Dude just loves everything we love and is happy to share it.

[@AllofJudea]

He paid some dues before he was able to do what he wants.

[@VickiHavok]

He’s a great example of real masculinity…he’s true to himself, and not afraid to accept and fight for others ❤️

Keanu would be first to say that “a man’s man” is a ridiculous notion of gender.

Keanu played in Dogstar way back in the 90s. They've reunited the band.

[@Jerfish1]

“I asked him if he wanted to start a motorcycle company and he said no, I said come on, he said why, and I said ‘because we’re gonna die’”. This right there, acceptance not fear leading to action instead of paralysis. Love it.

He has never lost his childlike wonder and awe, which makes him so down to earth and likable! A great human being!

[@IscariotsPrayer]

It’s his childlike wonder and excitement, plus his humanity towards others that makes my heart feel good. If half the people in the world could embrace this concept, the world would be a better place for future generations.

[@The_Venerate]

It's tough to do because we produce a system that encourages you to tamp that down pretty early. You go to school to learn but what you find out is that the adults are wanting you to demonstrate you're able to let go of childish notions to prove you're worthy of responsibility. That's what they want from you. To saddle you with responsibility and yoke you to productivity and labor. Keanu literally played the role of Ted; his militant father demands obedience and conformity to a culture that disdains "daydreaming". I think the result is that we generate people who take themselves very seriously and it is that state of being that snuffs out the imagination and free spiritness of child-like wonder and appreciation. Chasing after the allure of prestige through commerce and accumulation instead of the splendor of beauty all around us and within us. Children exude it and the elderly reconnect with it. In-between is lots of wasted time.

[@DesmondDoom]

Knowing he loves Joy Division and The Cure makes me love him even more.

New experience, new achievements! I'm truly grateful for the opportunity I had to meet Reeves last week through Radiant Reservation. I'm still amazed at how he took the time to interact with his fans; he's incredibly down-to-earth.

[@harrykatz914]

Wow, that's incredible!I have a lot of questions on my mind . How did you get to meet him, meeting him would feel like a dream come through! Yet, does becoming a club member pose its own set of challenges?

[@ryderstarlight451]

In 2023 I watched an interview on E-news where Reeves shared his experiences meeting devoted fans. Intrigued by the topic, I delved into some research and found an exclusive fan club via Radiant Reservation. As member there is a chance to meet him Reeves sets aside time at the end of each month to meet with active club members.

[@ryderstarlight451]

Becoming a member of this exclusive fan club is very easy, all you need is simply pay attention to your email , meet certain criteria such as active participation in fan events. The opportunity is worthwhile,I have always imagined how it would feel to meet him. He exceeded my expectations ,we talked about a lot of things, and he often laughed heartily before answering most of my questions. He mentioned that he changed his hair because he's preparing to film Constantine 2.

[@harrykatz914]

I stumbled upon RR, the Radiant Reservation community, which excels in facilitating arrangements with celebrities/public figures and private organizations. Their tremendous support makes them an outstanding resource for such endeavors.

[@josephbrown79]

As a long time (well, 15 years) bassist: Do it. Become a beast on it 💪

[@modsleix6]

The fact that this dude names Hooky, Joy Division and The Cure as some of his bass influences, have elevated my respect and admiration for him. Those are some of my early influences as a bass player myself, as well as many other bands in the Post Punk, Goth, New Wave, Coldwave, Darkwave, Synthwave and Shoegaze genres. Not to mention that the guy is not only super cool but, a genuinely nice and kindhearted soul. I wish I could meet him someday. It would be cool to discuss bands, bass, bikes and more over a cup of coffee and breakfast on a cold, rainy morning...

[@joshcarter-com]

Totally. And the great thing about most of those artists is that new bass players can play along pretty quickly. Hooky was just learning to play bass himself during Joy Division so the parts aren’t complicated. Newbie bass players trying to follow in the footsteps of somebody like Geddy Lee, on the other hand, can’t get anywhere close to playing Geddy’s parts. (I speak from experience!)

[@_Only_Zuul]

[@Cntric]

I'm starting bass and have similar tastes/influences! Saw Keanu at that same guitar center in Hollywood! I regret not talking to him more and taking a picture :( Asked him if he was there to get his bass fixed (he was placing his bass back in the case) and he said just nodded and said yeah, but I noticed his face got kinda red so I figured he was shy or maybe wanted to stay low-key. I ended up being too shy myself and didn't bother him for a picture. I should've just asked :'(

​@@Cntricnah man, you did the right thing!! he's just a dude, after all. a real human being should never be seen as a photo op

I saw Reeves in a cafe a few years ago, he was sitting 2 tables next to me. Fans asked for autographs and photos and he was really friendly to everyone. A friend is an agent and looked after him on a promotional tour. She said that she had never had such an uncomplicated star as him. the guy remained completely normal.

[@Lelabear]

He bought a sandwich from me in Vermont once. Came in with his motorcycle helmet on but when he placed his order I knew that voice and said "Keanu?" He laughed and took off the helmet and we talked while I made the sandwich. Just as I was done a tour bus pulled up out front and he got a panicked look. I pointed to the back door and he grinned, threw me a $10 for a $5 sandwich and skedaddled out the back. Sigh, it was a mighty fine moment.

[@mmmmmmmmdaaaamnnnnbabyyyy]

​@@Lelabearthat's so dope

[@gnarbeljo8980]

Thats really rare for an American star on his level of fame. Happens in Europe though. His humility and humanity always set him apart. Nice to hear he still feels safe out and about and being as spontaneous as he feels like in the moment. Very few actually do, for very real reasons. I'd never dream of bugging someone like this for autographs or attention. That's a huge deterrent for moving freely in public. I have aquaintances that bought homes here in rural Europe for the singular reason of being able to go grocery shopping with their family and do normal stuff without being bugged by people (or even recognized alot of the time). Once yoy get how limiting that feeling is, you understand that kind of fame has huge set backs although it's integral to doing well in the performing arts. You have to be very level headed to not loose touch with yourself and start evolving solely within a weird and unhealthy bubble of "superstars". The thing about Keanu is his was always really level headed, and not driven by other peoples ideals or ambitions, but his own passions and interests. He also somehow managed to handle the angst of existance alot better than most, though he's been more challenged. He didn't lose sight of himself and join a cult (not naming here) or reach for religious dogma to deal with the blows. It takes a certain type of inner stregnth and humility to remain anchored in who you always were, in his scenario. It's a gift, but also something I assume he's worked really hard on. Huge respect for that. I can see why music suits him. He's more of a musician type of personality and the typical actor. And I disagree with the "dudes dude" comment. I think he's entirely disinterested in the alpha/beta binary view of people, genders and self. But if he's a rolemodel for men, that's very positive.

5:53 "One time I was doing a film and Flea was in it" and he quickly reformulates to "or... I was in a film with Flea". I felt it so representative of Keanu's humility. Wholesome moment.

I feel like he’s so down to earth

[@NikiLivi5]

I had no idea he played in a band! I’ve been watching him since bill & ted. He’s my absolute favorite actor! He’s the only one I’d care to meet. I’d love to spend a day just talking and picking his brain. He’s the one person that didn’t let fortune and fame change him. He’s the kindest most caring humble honest man. We need more people like him.

[@canyonproductions7683]

As someone who rides motorcycles and plays Fenders- I approve of this message 😛! Cheers Keanu & Dogstar🌅

[@garyssimo]

me too! What else to ask for? invitation to jam there!

[@JsnHgl]

Me too!

[@V4demon_]

Same, motorcycles, and playing bass are my escape.

[@shable1436]

Be careful because basses can kill you quick

[@crinela6534]

Keanu Reeves is an inspiring example of someone who follows his dreams and does not quit his daydream. He shows us that we can have more than one passion in life and that we can pursue them with dedication and joy. Thank you.

[@shanhussain6114]

Not to forget; all the while being a genuinely good human being.

[@chopshop777]

From the time he starts playing that G major scale you can tell how good he is, he plays it very smoothly.

[@susantaylor8554]

Just love this man he's so down earth.

So of the earth 🌎 ❤

The collab we needed

Keanu is a living inspiration!

[@eldergeektromeo9868]

keanu is definitely ONE OF A KIND! Love you, man!❤

[@JustinWoo]

God I love Keanu Reeves.

[@Ecostainable]

Truly an amazing person, so let's give him his props and never forget this god upon men.

[@machfront]

He doesn’t have to be an outstanding bassist and he knows full well! His PASSION and unadulterated LOVE of the instrument comes shining through! Full force! Something many of us forget or otherwise lose sight of as we struggle with ‘perfection’ or theory or chasing another’s style/tone rather than our own singular voice with the bass. Sometimes….”just play and just love it” is solid advice.

[@SadCowboyEmoji]

Keanu has such Golden Retriever energy I love it!

[@JF-kv1gm]

Such an all round sweetheart and the sort of man we would all want as a friend. Keanu has always struck me as being very grounded, he hasn't become self-important despite his phenomenal film career and he has experienced things that have probably strengthened his convictions about what matters in life. Great that he makes time for music and wheels.

[@bsal7736]

I love that hes just a regular guy. I feel like a lot of celebs try changing in interviews to seem more down to earth, but this feels genuine.

[@brianwood7237]

Never heard this guy talk so much...keep this series going Fender!

[@mikesorbassguitar]

I wish. More celebrities were like this guy. Humble, down to earth, friendly. He seems to be a regular guy who just happened to hit the fame lottery. Good for him.

[@infiniteinspiration1628]

Exactly ❤

[@jan-g5269]

lovely to see how someone who has a completely different life and is in a completely different state in life can enjoy the same things i enjoy with happiness and a big smile in the face

[@josequins9099]

He really comes alive when he talks about the things he loves.

[@Tech-xm8vg]

I'm glad Keanu is still doing stuff with his band Dogstar - I went to see them when I was at Glastonbury in 1993 but a huge part of the audience just booed before they even came on. I asked the girl in front of me what was going on and had they said something awful but she said "no, he's just using his fame to get a place at Glastonbury". I replied that he was probably asked to come and play (more than likely by a young Emily Eavis begging her Dad to get to him there so she could meet him) and that didn't they want to hear what they're like at least and she looked confused and turned away from me. I was also doubly pissed off with the crowd as it took me ages to fight my way to that stage through the sea of people and poor Keanu and his band just had to come out and get abuse and then they left the stage. The lowest point of Glastonbury '93 for sure and if they come to the UK again I will try and see them.

[@JL-ef7bh]

Whoever booed him would have regretted it after watching John Wick.

[@schrodinger_kot]

​@@JL-ef7bhnot John wick, but the matrix

[@ghgh9051]

In the first matrix and Constantine, one actor plays under the name Keanu Reeves, and in John Wick, under the same name, Keanu Reeves is played by another actor, he is his understudy both in the movies and in real life for almost 30 years (just like Tom Cruise's understudies) . They've been bullying their fans like this for 25 years. In the last matrix, they both played under the same name Keanu Reeves in different episodes. Programmers, run this through a special face recognition program and see for yourself.

[@blankslate6964]

​@@ghgh9051what are you talking about?

[@optimusprime-fd1yq]

​@@ghgh9051is this some elaborate joke that leads back to how Keanu Reeves is deemed to be an immortal.

[@NilesFoster-ry9in]

Do what you love and God bless you

[@derekgornall2]

This makes me feel so much better about my guitar playing. My dad is a blues lead guitarist/frontman - for all his life. He bought me a guitar on my 10th bday and I never really caught any stride with it until I was about 26 or so. Keanu is a role model of mine, and seeing him just throwing himself into something kinda new like this and making it work despite not being some hotshot uber-talented child protoge (as my dad kind of was) gives me a healthier perspective on patience and the time it takes to get good at something as difficult as music playing. But also, more importantly, that no time is ever too late (until you die, as he mentioned about starting his motorcycle company). Love this video, and my primary guitar is a Fender '96 Mary Kaye relic strat. Wouldn't trade it for anything. \m/ \m/

[@edoalva48]

I'm 26 now and started guitar around 10-ish too. Never really serious since I am always aware that I don't have any musical talent whatsoever. On and off, playing super casual. Recently I just started picking back the hobby and this really reminds me of the feels, to just simply have some fun. The fact that it features him, Keanu Reeves is such a bonus too, someone whose demeanor I admire, what an inspiration.

[@skyviewdesign]

What a rad dude! Love the joy you can see that playing music brings him!

[@mimimi5656]

i love and support this man with all my heart

[@PRXFVNO]

Keanu's expression and the way he said "don't quit your daydream" reminded me of something Johnny Silverhand would say to V in one of those moments where you could actually tell he was starting to actually care for him/her

[@Sentarry]

I love Keanu. I'd love just to spend 15 minutes drinking a cup of coffee with Keanu talking about motorcycles and music

[@infiniteinspiration1628]

Or just good Tahitian vanilla coffee- Noah Noah coffee is phenomenal ❤❤ omg to die for ❤

[@kennykamensky993]

It’s good to see a famous and successful movie icon that doesn’t think he is above everyone Keanu is a breath of fresh air keep being you dude and keep jamming

[@debbiedeiseroth3189]

I love listening to your stories.❤❤❤❤

[@Tatted-ne7tu]

It’s cool to see Keanu so moved about these things in his life. The most I’ve heard him in an interview. Speaks volumes about him. Love to have a beer and jam with him.

[@sufu72]

How is that man almost 60 is beyond me, I love his passion for everything, from music to acting, I love that he is just being a normal guy that loves what he does for a living, just the way he expresses himself.

[@rockers2rockers616]

Keanu has so much drive and passion for life. When he has a guitar strapped on and is on stage you can see that he is in the zone. He is a musician. Yes. Keanu has great Mana.

[@yotaiji012]

Everyone loves this guy! How can you dislike him. My bucket list is to meet him once.

[@ModernClassic4953]

A man who is Industrious hard working go getter. Gotta love it, his enthusiasm, and passion.

[@johnhanover2229]

Keanu is very much like Johnny Cash just cool and everyone can relate to them and be inspired to be like them. Regardless of our differences we have people like Keanu.

[@josephcook2314]

One of the most real actors out there. It's been fun growing old with you Keanu!

It’impossible to not love that guy. The whole world love Keanu

[@emayer61]

Most down-to-earth, very giving actor out there. Rides the bus and just lives life and treats people like we all should. Does his own stunts and firearm training in John Wick movies. Just an awesome guy.

[@MarcSiqueira]

Just when you think Keanu couldnt get any cooler, he just does it!

[@rodruvalcaba]

I love the vibe of Keanu! That's my true definition of being successful in life. Not the fame, to achieve your dreams in a loving and caring way, enjoying, truly enjoying life
