Justice in Vancouver

[@rachelkerns5259]

Finding the wind is incredibly compelling content.

[@Cognitive.Dissident]

Hey Graham, I was the fan that said hi probably very awkwardly after my partner had to pull me stop. I was a bit intoxicated so apologies! And thanks again for y'all do!

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

Cheers! Thanks for saying hi.

[@ShaneLeeAtk]

Honestly, GVlogs are some of my favorite content. Full. Stop.

[@JohnBHenry]

I'm glad you found a porpoise in life.

[@HeraldBFC]

The start was a quick jolt from "oh no is this a serious Gvlog" to "Oh HELL yeah, Justice." Noice.

[@Kronopticon]

As a stage tech, i gotta admit that those lights are MIND BOGGLING. That seems so goddamn awesome and i think watching these guys is a masterclass in lighting dimension and utilising space and direction effectively

[@coachbubba5107]

Can I just say that I appreciate the fact that Graham takes the time to tag the LRR that he references during the course of the video. I do not keep up on LRR so I was glad to easily find exactly what he was talking about. Graham is best.

[@TheHillDragon]

i saw black keys come out to the most basic of stage sets, a few rugs and a large stack of amps then 10 mins in a wall of lights came up behind them then 20 mins the wall of lights separated into 20 bars then 30 mins the bars moved up on the ends to give kind of a V shape then 40 mins they spread out to moving forwards and circling the stage then 50 mins they added color then 60 mins they added display it was mind blowing.

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

That sounds amazing!! I forgot to mention in the video that, prior to Stress, they didn’t use any *red* in the lighting. Then it was *all* red.

[@kakashitrapnell]

The part with spotting the influencers irl made me want to see a nature doc style video narated by David Attenborough on the subject.

[@OktoberHero747]

'Remixing their stuff with their own stuff' aka the reason Daft Punk Alive is such a banger

[@justineelzak4285]

A fall protection zone is a place where you need to be secured against falling (in this case off of the ferry). Vlog was great really liked the cinematographer pov

[@greendoodily]

Yeah, get your harness on.

[@ben_burnes]

17:30 I mean, when you break it down playing a piano is just pushing buttons too, but you can still be artful and expressive with it. Doesn't matter if those buttons hammer a tensioned string or trigger different bits of music

[@SamUndomiel]

The way the red pulses of light are mirrored in the cell phones of the crowd is really compelling. All of the lighting is compelling (you are so right), but that detail is so evocative of going to a show in 2024, idk, I love it, it feels.

[@Sientir]

I'm obsessing over the LEGO sets in the background of the at-home footage. They look so cool!

[@tripawdpress]

Thank you for introducing me to Justice, Graham! This was great and now I'm sure I've heard one of their songs before too. Very sick!

[@robertminnix6040]

"even if you're only, like, medium on Justice" is a beginning to a sentence that out of context has me howling

[@TomEllul]

I don't think I've consciously listened to Justice before, but as a camera and lighting nerd, and musician, I feel I need to check them out now

[@Unknowngamer1138]

It's always powerfully surreal seeing someone vlog where you live, and the Gastown footage was very much that because I was living there until last year

[@diamondmagus]

Thanks for the great video G-star. I'm only barely familiar with Justice's music, but that light show looks both intense and awesome.

[@Grimangel53]

Thank you for showing off these bands. I’m loving all the new music I’ve been getting to discover. Now to VIBE

[@JennieFuchsia]

I didn’t go to the clock while I was in Vancouver, but if I did I would have whispered to it “at least you’re better than Plymouth Rock” because Plymouth Rock is also only a tourist attraction bc we said it was, but it’s also a normal size rock with a fence and a video camera. No tourist trap will ever be as bad as Plymouth Rock. There’s no historical significance- one guy invented it on his deathbed and then they guessed what rock it was. These lights are amazing

[@ANeMzero]

13:33 "I wonder if Kpop stans ever..." Yes. Yes they do. I have a friend in Metro Vancouver who still points out places where videos were filmed every time we walk past.

[@cherissemiranda3187]

Aw man. I wish I had heard they were in town. I would have loved to see them live. Thanks for sharing this small glimpse.

[@rwdavidoff]

I believe "fall protection zone within gate" probably means "the zone within the gate requires fall protection to be worn when crew are inside it and it is restricted for passengers"? (e.g. harness or lifelines to prevent falling over the side, since you're outboard of the railing)

[@Zgredu666]

I’m always enjoying your vlogs, Graham. Thanks for uploading!

[@kitoshi]

IT WAS SO GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN~!! Loved randomly seeing you at a DQ~!! LOVED IT

[@Daekeyas]

Getting to see your vlog immediately improved my day.

[@doublemaycare7171]

Saw the title, thought "oh gosh i hope it's the band" and then saw the thumbnail and was like "phew, good"

[@dumbdom4videos436]

Big same

[@darkshadow1416]

See, I was unfamiliar with the band (at least by name) so it took until the intro for me not to be confused and moderately concerned.

[@lilyfin2196]

Hi, OOTL finn here, whats the worrisome other meaning?

[@TamsinV]

@@lilyfin2196 Probably just the idea of something horrible happening in Vancouver that requires seeking or asking for the actual concept of justice

[@DavidLeeKersey]

9:49 it means that if you are beyond the gate you have to be wearing fall protection equipment, which a harness and a lanyard equipped with a shock cord.

[@onezerotwo]

Crushed I missed this one, haven't seen Andrew since before COVID either woulda been nice dangit!! Glad you had fun!

[@MadMontyMN]

I regularly consume storm chasing content. Watching men find the wind is kind of my jam

[@amvhellboy]

It's National Stress Awareness Day...my fellow co-workers seemed confused by the track I made them aware of. Amazing vid with a great analysis of Justice. Chemical Brothers are similar with the stage coming to life and amplifying the live performance

[@emmablake1913]

Excellent wind content and ferry facts.

[@thedevilcomes2011]

I do love me some Intelligent use of Kinetic Lighting within production design, especially within the electronic music genre, where a lot of the design space revolves around how many lasers can we use? Looks like an experience that one wouldn't forget partaking in, thank you for sharing! Awesome cinematography as well Graham! :)

[@Arakasi0]

I think the etiquette in instragram circles is couples knife fight in the alley.

[@MarlaDesat]

Delightful as always!

[@oxyfromsg]

I am a huge fan of the song "We Are Your Friends" by Justice vs. Simian. Hell of a music video.

[@randomguy358]

Yo! My dad had that exact same coin counter for his vending business when I was a kid! Puts a smile on my face.

[@jarrahjames9626]

I love that you can see the lightshow in miniature on all the phones that people are using to record it.

[@SpiffyTrev]

Hearing your top 5 makes me realize that I haven’t really done the big concert thing. I was supposed to a couple times in high school, but kept getting screwed out of being able to go. Though I did work as the lighting tech in a 300-seat opera house, so I’ve spent a significant portion of my life in concerts. My top is only 3: Mindless Self Indulgence in a 150-person bar venue in London. Crash Test Dummies at an outdoor festival in Bracebridge. Finger Eleven, also outdoors but in Windsor.

[@lelandbatey]

Saw Justice in Seattle, was the best show of my life, so amazing!

[@WeedenProject]

Had the chance to see Justice at Glastonbury earlier this year and they were absolutely fantastic, really hoping I get to see them again now.

[@abraheron]

what a fun video, love the lighting

[@ElihuAran]

My favorite Justice mix is D.A.N.C.E/Fire/Safe and Sound from Woman Worldwide, it's just such a banger and an incredible way to close out a "live" album (it was recorded in-studio, but in the style of a live album)(it's also what IRIS uses for the soundtrack)

[@katelynna10000]

Hey Graham, can I just say, exquisite timing on this video. I, and many other Americans, woke up to a nasty surprise this morning and this is exactly what I needed. I often re-watch your vlogs when my depression is getting to me, and this is more of that good stuff. Thanks for the wonderful content, as always.

[@MarsIsDead86]

The music and the lighting reminds of that Just Shapes and beats game you guys played on the channel awhile back

[@BlackDragonDM]

This is reminding me of seeing Daft Punk, what an amazing stage setup and the live song mashups was awesome.

[@MistaFinni]

Saw them in Chicago. I have been thinking about the show daily since. They didnt play the second encore, but I actually got their autographs at the end of it! Both Gaspard and Xavier were walking in the area between the stage and the barricade and were signing stuff. I got lucky and got both of them! I can't fucking WAIT for their live album release. And hopefully we get a cinematic show akin to IRIS for youtube as well

[@OldMan_PJ]

Rescue Boat Simulator added to my bucket list.

[@SuperFlik]

Glad the video is a lot less ominous than the title and thumbnail led me to believe

[@jaredkelly925]

Iris hash: 1d25f1aa855750b359eb2363d8fc88c72f39aa76 It's not on youtube anymore. Thanks for sharing Graham!

[@Gracieisawsome]

I love Justice! What an awesome experience.

[@irekimpton6730]

December 2018 was in fact the last Grand Prix before the change to Magicfests-- it was also the one where I met like 7 of you, so that would in fact make sense that that's what the card is from!

[@tehPete]

One of the few acts I'd love to see live

[@AlexanderRoederer]

They never brought the Ferry Buffet back??? Noooooo one of my fondest memories of visiting a decade ago was consoling myself on the ferry ride back by treating myself to the buffet and gorging myself on waffles.

[@thunderstruck560]

Last time I saw Justice it was at a venue called the Southside Ballroom in Dallas. That venue has a big room and a smaller room attached together. But the line to get in was very long in part because there wasn't staff telling people which line went where and the act in smaller room was get this, Kendrick Lamar. It was I wanna say 2014 and he wasn't on the level he's at today but I think his second album was out and had a pretty sizable following. Even today I'm glad I saw Justice over Kendrick because they put on an amazing show like you said, but it's crazy those two acts were in the same complex at the same time.

[@NIRDIAN1]

Aight that does it. I'm gonna try and catch the Brussels show!

[@resilientspring]

I hate that much flashing lights happening, so I don't forsee going to a concert myself, BUT their music sounds rad so I will check that it out!

[@rj78678]

Well Polygondwanaland was a certified banger, time to check out justice (based on recommendation, not cuz I think they'll sound anything alike necessarily 😅)

[@TehAmelie]

Girl who basically only knows Justice for Stress (me): Wild that they'd play Stress live

[@monogreen]

If you like creative light shows with concerts, for me my most memorable light show comes from Meshuggah. Not quite my sort of music but the light show more than makes up for it :)

[@KBKarma]

Regarding bands that care about staging, Nordic Giants always have cinematic projections going during their gigs. I believe all of their songs have music videos which they've shot, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

[@ben_burnes]

I ask where you get the music is from because 1- the music is real nice, and 2- I write music and I want to know if I can get similar stuff on there. Looking forward watching this one! :D

[@insane0042]

I hope one day I could be rich so I could take my good friends and lovely people like you Graham to the most tastiest of foods.

[@Critterb0t]

20:03 Kitty!

[@DeaconTaylor]

apparently there is a band named justice. this is a learning video.

[@Zorajit]

Not gonna lie, I had to skip to the end and then go back and watch the video because I’m primed to expect the announcement to be that somebody involved milkshake ducked or is retiring to join an AI startup or a plea for medicine that keeps all your organs inside

[@KakuEpsilon]

I'm utterly fascinated by the disembodied head of Ariel, maybe, in your backdrop at the Home shots. Why do you have a disembodied head of Ariel?

[@wildnumbat]

Alright, can someone please help me, what is the name of the song at 19:50? I'm losing my mind, that drop is diabolical

[@redshiftproductions7158]

I'm really hoping they release another live mix album like they did with Women Worldwide, easily my favorite of their works as it is essentially their live show in a bottle. Did they wind up mixing in anything from Gaspard's solo album Escapades?

[@mukulkandwal832]

Love the VLOGs + love wierd time sigs (polygondwanaland is probably my favorite album of all time). Would love to try and re-edit this vlog with gizz music! Is there any way to share the unused footage?

[@sienka511]

"watching a man find the wind" souds like an old proverb. I dont know what ot would mean though, maybe something about doing nothing useful

[@MaximePoirier]

Yay!

[@rakslice]

2:39 do I have to haul out the Active Pass facts again send toot

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

I’ve just learned something

[@Friendofsquirrel]

Justice for Peanut and Fred

[@chulumpthebigmoneywizard851]

I was exceedingly astonished the first time I saw a White Spot. Mainly because my first White Spot viewing included a middle-aged white couple taking a picture in front of the building

[@johnf9710]

Given my use of KZbin as a primary means of listening to music, my music taste, and a sampling of their music AFTER watching this, I'm frankly furious that I had never heard of this group before this vlog. I grew up on Daft Punk, the Chemical Brothers, and the Crystal Method. How the @$^# have I never encountered these guys. Shame on the house of the algorithm.

[@lilyoftheveil666]

I'm kind of jealous how close you are to cities where big concerts happen. Out here on the other side of the country, we're so far away from any "big" cities that we rarely get big concerts, and when we do, they're generally acts that appeal to an older audience.

[@markgaydosh4249]

People need to sometimes take the chance and travel for a show by yourself. I’ve seen so many great shows alone. If you only go with others, you’ll miss out on niche shows that only you like

[@VampiricNinja]

You've answered our question about the music, but now we have a new question.... what jacket are you wearing? It seems neat!

[@williammetcalfe5642]

14:03 My guess would be whomstever has the most followers gets seniority.

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

That’s what Andrew said too

[@mebmakes]

Is there really beef between Victoria and Vancouver? or that justa thing uvic students from vancouver and victoria start?

[@MrMielke]

Wait, how does the camera follow you around when you are looking for the wind? Is it just a very wide shot with zooms, or do you have some sophisticated stand that can track movement? :O

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

The Osmo Pocket does object tracking! The gimbal was following me. It’s neat!

[@MrMielke]

@GrahamStarkVlogs That is so cool! That somehow feels a lot like "future-tech" 😄

[@soso188]

Aw man I missed justice?

[@taichanie]

I feel like this video should have an epilepsy warning.

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

There is one

[@AManCalledBigTime]

WHITE SPOT!!! w00t! w0000000t!
