DANE & DIGS!
Yep, it's the newest buddy-buddy show on the tube! Not really but Dane Cook is on the show this weekend and we do have some fun with a guitar and my fake plant that's part of my new talkshow set otherwise known as my van.
Things seem to be shaping up nicely these days now that the van is on the road and running ok again. I for sure need to thanks Cam Brookhouse from Brookhouse Auto once again for all his support and help with getting this old van back on the road so I can continue shooting my show every week.
Obviously this entire show is still being produced with no budget but thanks to you guys, increased ratings have allowed me to land some sponsors so I might actually be able to do some things I desperately need to do. Hiring a couple people to help me work on the show each week is my first priority. There is only so much one guy can do all on his own so a bit of a budget can make a big difference in what I can turn the show into over the next few months.
It's not like having network type money or anything like that but it sure will help. After working on "Be Real with JR DIGS" which was a network produced series, and having over a dozen people working on the show with me, it's sometimes tough to keep grinding it out 70 and 80 hours a week in order to just get an episode delivered on time. So even a bit of a budget to hire some people to help out would be amazing. Have you guys been checking out Patrick the co-op's video's lately on his group page. He's doing some great work around here lately so if I end up being able to hire him full time,I'm sure he will be stoked!
I'm stoked these days also about some of the efforts a few of you guys have been making to help me make the show better. Tommy Gun for one and also Aaron Allen and his band The small city saints have been recording a ton of "JR DIGS man with a van" music and sending it to me over the last little while. Wait until you guys start hearing these tunes in the show each week. It's awesome stuff!
Make sure to check out The Small city saints who are on tour right now. These guys are absolutely what indie Canadian music is all about. Thanks Aaron, safe travels out there on the road heading East!
Have a great weekend everyone. I'm hoping to get up to the cottage maybe Saturday night for the last half of the weekend. I've had a super jammed up week and could use a few minutes of down time for sure! I spoke with Doug Foley from the Hamilton Spectator today and I think there is a chance that he might write an article about the show and have it in the paper Saturday. Hope so, a little press about the show this weekend would be great!
