✨Starkid at LeakyCon Portland!!!✨ Part 1 🏔️🌲🎶🪄🧚‍♀️

[@jaroddraycounty]

I love that these are shows that Jaime was at least in, and she's the most confused lol

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehehe

[@tapesbytaylor]

Watching Joe Walker rehearse To Dance Again after ( How many years?!?!? ) really warmed my heart

[@MerediddyS]

Mine too!

[@meba444]

Poor Corey is never living the Jangle Ball tour incident down XD

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe sorry Corey!

[@emilyclark8772]

Corey’s show stopping number is perrrrrrfect

[@MerediddyS]

He's too talented!

[@lottazietz1160]

I admire the fact that you put in so much work in order for the vlogs to be out regularly, especially when big events like Leaky Con happen - grateful!!!!

[@linihutchings8822]

AGREED 1000%

[@MerediddyS]

Thanks for watching!!

[@Charissamusicx]

No wonder Joe sprained his ankle during Homecoming 😂 12:25

[@MerediddyS]

Lol we were scared he would do it again

[@matthewjacobthefifth]

brian's character explaining doo wop to wop doo always makes me laugh, and jaime always makes me smile, and clark's frustration is hilarious. 10/10 would wop doo again.

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe yay!

[@loganmoriarty1155]

I’m obsessed with the jet lag and the toothbrushes. I’m sure you hear it all the time, but THANK YOU for being so dedicated with publishing vlogs! I know you’re busy and it means a lot to us all 🌟

[@linihutchings8822]

It is unbelievably generous, isn't it?

[@MerediddyS]

Thank you for always watching and commenting and having fun!

[@TarunoNafs]

Oh, good to see a glimpse of Tessa on KZbin again!

[@lewismcintosh8029]

I was absolutely SHOCKED to see her (between 3:11-3:15), since she hasn't uploaded in a while. Just glad just she's doing well and heartwarming seeing her & Joe on my screen (3:17 - practically made me melt to the floor).

[@MerediddyS]

❤️❤️❤️

[@TnoyKaraxis]

The Last ever leaky? Well fuck. I need you guys to come to SOME convention in Michigan!!! (I’ve put Starkid members on every Request-A-Guest for every convention near me)

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

I wish you could come to Seattle some time. We have banana slugs too!!!

[@bekah_st]

Agreed, i need more Ann Arbor events now that I actually live in Ann Arbor

[@taramup]

Oooooo Grand Rapids Con I think is looking for KZbin creators!

[@MerediddyS]

I knowwww. They're starting a new Fantasy Con though!! We will probably go!!

[@lumpynoir]

Meredith!! Your voice is so beautiful on Steven Universe songs!!!! (AND ALL THE OTHER SONGS TOO!!!) Thank you for the vlog!!

[@MerediddyS]

Thank YOU for watching!!

[@nalinikratzin9334]

So wonderful to open this video and be greeted with some TalkFine music rightaway. Plus I love Joe's energy (which is probably even greater at these shows now that he's not doing much theatre anymore) and Corey's earrings absolutely ROCK!

[@MerediddyS]

hehe yes!!! Thank you!!

[@kingofpointless]

I envy Brian's magical ability to constantly send others into fits of hysterical laughter. Also, I concur; suck it J.K. Rowling.

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe yeah Brian knows how to get us goin!!

[@MorganNicole2512]

VHSCC representation!! It’s my favorite show and I just wish I could make everyone watch it bc everyone should see it. 3 Spirits is probably my favorite song you sing, so I love that you sang it for this!!

[@MerediddyS]

It's the best show!!!

[@wiebki]

Haha Jamie was on one during rehearsal 😂😂😂

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe she knows how to keep us on our toes!!

[@yckitty08]

Corey singing show stopping number is PERFECT!

[@MerediddyS]

Agreed!

[@XenaNemyt]

Omg! This is so cute!!!! lol Jaime “i don’t know music” 😂😂😂😂

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe

[@arbitrarysquash3220]

I love how Corey will never live down thinking the rehearsal venue was the performance venue.

[@MerediddyS]

It was too special to forget

[@summerh1059]

Watching such genuine vlogs with people just experiencing life and friendship and happiness just warms my heart. Y’all are AMAZING

[@MerediddyS]

Thank you!!

[@Fairyangel24]

“Who’s gonna buy me stuff?” *pans to Corey and Clark* 😂

[@AlexandriaSimos]

meredith’s dads, of course 😂

[@MerediddyS]

Hehehe luckily most booths took Apple Pay 🤑

[@Okay_Is_Wonderful]

So hi, I'm the Pigfarts shirt gal, I'm SO glad you seem to have had as much fun as y'all brought us. Much love 🫶

[@MerediddyS]

Yay! Thank you for being there!

[@airborneice7988]

it was wild hearing you say the last leakycon you did was 2017 bc that's the one I went to all those years ago, as a very awkward shy teenager who was so so excited to see you guys irl :') I remember very nervously approaching you to ask for a photo and you being really friendly and even saying something nice about my phonecase to set me at ease ahah. I've grown a lot since then but that leakycon is still a memory I look back on very fondly. watching these videos it's nice to see that you guys enjoy these events as much as the fans do :)

[@peachykeen4268]

I love the POV you're Meredith at 15:54 lol! Thank you so much for these vlogs, they're always such good comfort watches and I love crocheting to them :D🧡

[@frazzyblue1384]

These videos are a gift thankyou 🫶 so great to see joe again!!

[@MerediddyS]

I know I loved having him with us!

[@bell._05]

jaime lyn beatty really is my spirit animal

[@MerediddyS]

🦄

[@ariellewho]

Well now I want a album of Steven Universe covers by Starkid. 😅

[@MerediddyS]

Omg that'd be so fun!

[@sofiirenart7511]

Whoah! GIANT WOMAN!!!

[@MerediddyS]

All I wanna doooooo

[@helloboldt]

Jaime is such my fave person and her showing up in your vlogs just makes them so much brighter!

[@MerediddyS]

HHehhee agreed!!

[@pacificnorthwench]

Meredith if you ever come to Olympia, WA there is a tiny independently owned bookstore called Orca Books Cooperative and they have a bookstore cat! 🐈

[@MerediddyS]

Ohhhhh thank you!!! I want to meet that cat

[@inkniss5189]

I love Forest Park!!! Love seeing that you went! And the mountain behind Mt Hood might be Rainier.

[@MerediddyS]

Ohhhh thank you!!

[@noahfitzer]

I love Jamie's mind 🌻🌻💩🪥

[@MerediddyS]

I knowwwww she's a magical person!

[@MariaEverlasting]

Looks like it was sooooo much fun!!!!! Also wow those slugs!!!!!

[@MerediddyS]

So big!!!

[@vaarinmackborander]

oh it looks so fun😍hope you had a blast!!!

[@MerediddyS]

I did!!!

[@Skyheart3000]

Omg Forest Park! That’s right next to my college ❤ wish I could’ve seen y’all live, but living vicariously through these vlogs! (Love the bathroom sign shade haha) I used to go to Powells and listen to the SK Homecoming soundtrack while wandering the aisles. Can’t wait for the next vid!

[@MerediddyS]

Omg!! I'm so jealous you got to go to college there!

[@MentallyFive]

This vlog brought back so much nostalgia from when I met you guys at Leakycon 2014 and Geekycon 2015! You guys are always the sweetest and put on the best performances!!

[@MerediddyS]

Thank you so much!! I will miss Leaky!!

[@haylielegremlinfriend2805]

I’m so happy you could enjoy and awesome hike and wonderful times at Portland! Can’t wait to see part 2! My sister and I went to see the Sunday performance and we had so much fun

[@MerediddyS]

Yay! Thank you for being there!

[@Rastrick92]

What a magical experience 🤩

[@MerediddyS]

It really was!

[@bekah_st]

Thank you for another vlog to get me through my lunch break 🪥

[@MerediddyS]

Thanks for watching!

[@humanpersn]

OMG! the Steven Universe music killed me!!! i miss that show so muchhhhhh

[@MerediddyS]

It's such a fun show!!

[@bitni]

Starkid + Steven Universe ⭐️❤ Incredible set!

[@MerediddyS]

Thank you!!!

[@XenaNemyt]

And omg, Jaime saying “it’s Ginny Weasley!” Did you guys get to meet her? 😁😊💚

[@MerediddyS]

No :( She was very busy!!

[@Isabgio]

This whole video was so nostalgic for me as someone who grew up in the PNW 🥹 I have so many memories in the mossy forests and running around the Portland convention center with my friends at our competitions. (Also the giant elevator from the kitchens always freaked me out lol)

[@MerediddyS]

Omg so jealous!!! I loved being there!

[@Vanessa-uo6lt]

also marcel in the shell is soooooo excellent you're right

[@elizabethklaers]

Yessss!!! I was late to the game watching it too, but it's sooo good

[@MerediddyS]

A masterpiece!

[@savdagcurrier2126]

Im the human who had the googly eyes and I'm glad you had such a good time! I hope we see you at enchanticon or similar so you all have more excuses to explore and laugh together :)

[@MerediddyS]

Yay! I hope so too!

[@SkySmithy]

Glad you enjoyed Powell's! It really is a magical place. Hopefully you got to visit the rare books section on the top floor.

[@MerediddyS]

I could spend an eternity in there!

[@CartoonJessie]

This is so much fun! Question - I haven't see Joe Walker perform with Starkid in a while - how long had it been for him? (Or am I just oblivious to what he does with Starkid nowadays?)

[@marcusplumlee8366]

He performed with Tin Can Bros earlier this year, but before that he hadn’t performed since StarKid Homecoming in 2019.

[@MerediddyS]

Looks like someone else answered!! It was so fun to have him back!

[@Vanessa-uo6lt]

i feel like it's appropriate that it's the last leaky considering... you know. i was even surprised that the event still existed and that you guys were gonna perform in it, but i was happy to see on their website that they disassociated the event with harry potter and they make sure to state that people of all gender identities are welcomed.

[@MerediddyS]

Yeah JKR sucks, and when I think of Harry Potter I think of all the amazing ways my life has been changed by the community! So I'm glad we got to all be together one last time, and still be true to our identities in a safe space!

[@cream_cheese_bagel]

starkid leaky?!?!? this is the best birthday present ever!!!! (i know i'm 2 weeks late but a meredith vlog is a meredith vlog)

[@MerediddyS]

Thank you! Happy birthday again!

[@linihutchings8822]

You met the incredible banana slug!

[@MerediddyS]

They're my friends now

[@pcwkid76]

I love Powell's. But the last time I was there they'd shut down the coffee shop on the upper level because of the pandemic.

[@MerediddyS]

Dang- those were hard times!

[@CurrentlyAnonymous]

I have now heard of the film “Marcel the Shell”

[@MerediddyS]

You should watch it- it's a masterpiece

[@lottazietz1160]

Does the incredible person with the ghost stickers have an online shop?

[@MerediddyS]

Ohhh good question! That info might be on the LeakyCon website?? I'm not sure!!

[@keikustar]

i feel like you dont need to do ab workouts ever; the way brian makes you laugh is more than enough.

[@MerediddyS]

Hehe this is true!

[@thatoneguy9399]

This is so cool! Thanks for this Meredith. I’m curious, do you and Brian have a favorite of the HatchetField trilogy?

[@MerediddyS]

Prolly Black Friday! The only one I've seen live!

[@juliagray9219]

19:53 but did Liam get any phone calls??
