A Future Plan and some Updates!
Added 2023-12-11 02:07:13 +0000 UTCHows It going everyone!
I have an idea I'd like to run by you, I have been watching full concerts and full album reactions to some amazing bands and while I'm really enjoying these I keep thinking... How did they get here!? Massive sold out concerts... Amazing Quality Records... But everyone starts off playing Small shows, and with albums that show the potential of where they will be, but aren't there YET!
So in saying that... I'd like to do something New!
What if we start from The Beginning?
First Album Reaction.. to see where it all started, what was it that made them stand out then?
First Concert Reaction... Before all the big stage productions, what did they do?
First Documentaries... What were they striving for? What did they show us then vs now?
Then from there take the journey! With the privilege of being able to go through them from first to most recent! Every Band... BTS... Band-Maid... Dimash... Baby-Metal... One Ok Rock.. McFly.. and who knows who else!? Lets see their entire work from start to finish and see how they got to the bands we know and love now!
Also... Random News... I am now a member of the International Press Association? and Have a Website! ( www.johnreaveslive.com )
And Last but most Defiantly not the least... I'm Heading to HONG KONG in 9 DAYS! To See Band-Maid and Dimash!!!!
Thank you JAMIE!!!!!

2023-12-14 17:40:13 +0000 UTCWow, all great news and ideas! Have fun in Hong Kong, i have no idea what it will be like as it will be his first actual concert China since… well, I think the Mt Emei festival??! Audiences in different parts of the world are so different, it’s quite interesting. I can’t make it myself so close to Christmas.

2023-12-14 06:45:28 +0000 UTCWow, I'm so glad you are able to see Dimash live and I'm sure his concert will be a very unique experience for you. Dimash and DEARs are a different breed and you will get to see this for yourself. Soak it all in and enjoy all the good vibes.

2023-12-13 22:26:00 +0000 UTCLooking forward to watch your Dimash experience. I'm not able to go to Hong Kong (got a ticket for Dimash in Budapest in May) but I wish you an amazing trip and concert.

2023-12-13 02:46:41 +0000 UTCWow! 😃I'm so happy for you. Seeing Dimash in concert is a dream that I have had for several years and unfortunately, it will not be possible for me to be there yet. For this concert, you will be my eyes and ears. I can't wait to see your video of this memorable concert. I suppose now that you are a member of the International Press Association (congratulations!!), it might be possible for you to approach Dimash? I wish it for you. Until then, take good care of yourself.👏🌟💞👏🌟

2023-12-12 15:39:19 +0000 UTCThat’s a great idea John! May I suggest to add the Jonas Brothers on your already awesome list? Their story, as a band of brothers, is amazing which was perfectly told in their documentary on Prime Video. Also, they just wrapped up their US leg of their world tour which grossed ~100M and a 20th anniversary tour is already scheduled in 2025. Twentieth 🤯 I remember you mentioned on your reaction to their TXT collab you only know them by name but unfamiliar with their music so I think this would be really interesting for you to dive into

2023-12-12 02:38:48 +0000 UTCOh that's so exciting. Enjoy HK and Dimash. We're going to Budapest in May instead. Excitingly planning a 6 week European trip.

2023-12-11 20:41:12 +0000 UTCI knew you would jump over that "mountain" and fly to Hong Kong! Congratulations, you won't be disappointed. Dimash in real life will make up for all your difficulties, it is much better than on the screen.

2023-12-11 18:02:54 +0000 UTCThat sounds fun but it will not work with BTS if you are not willing to upload let's say 3 BTS videos each day. I have more than 1000 videos altogether and I know that's probably only a third of what there is. I don't have any Run BTS videos, interview videos or MV etc.

2023-12-11 12:13:47 +0000 UTCOh yes, baby teenager Mcfly to almost 40yrs old Mcfly would be fab to see ❤️

2023-12-11 08:07:11 +0000 UTCSounds like a fun idea! 😁 For ONE OK ROCK, make sure to not miss the indies, their very first releases were the EP called ONE OK ROCK and then another ep titled Keep It Real (which is also the name of a song). I love those two EPs. Starting with this one: https://youtu.be/RI_FSjNzPts?si=bWIfPTTURoFkzwjD (This YouTube account is great btw because it has all their songs including b-side tracks from singles in chronological order.)

2023-12-11 07:41:52 +0000 UTCOooo great news indeed! Also, love the idea of starting from the beginning. I think it truly helps one understand and appreciate any band even more! Also, I’m sure you’re tired of us Babymetal fans bugging you to do the guide 🤣.

John Reaves
2023-12-11 04:22:22 +0000 UTCThank you so much!!!!
John Reaves
2023-12-11 04:20:54 +0000 UTCCongratulations on being a member of the international press association. Very happy for you. Your ideas sound wonderful about following bands and what they had to go through to get where they are. Really love your reactions and wow, you are going to Hong Kong to see Dimash and Band-Maid. Awesome!
Jolene Nakamatsu
2023-12-11 03:29:22 +0000 UTCThere's some very interesting early Dimash documentaries on his channel, one especially that talks about the difficulties he faced being accepted in his own country.

2023-12-11 03:27:19 +0000 UTCThat’s just incredible, and you’re part of the associated press, my goodness! Just Wow and Congratulations! The BTW way you presented that at the end, like it wasn’t massive news, oh my goodness, well wow!
Janet Lawson
2023-12-11 03:19:48 +0000 UTCSo awesome you get to see Band-Maid.

2023-12-11 03:04:46 +0000 UTCThat's great that you're going to see Dimash! Will your press credentials get you a better seat? Regarding your idea, I think it's not only a great idea, but essential. I hope you will include the sacrifices and hard work they put in. My niece and I have been following a couple of Chinese singers/actors/models/brand reps. They are huge stars in China, but they have made incredible sacrifices and still do. They have very high work ethics. I'd be glad to direct you to videos that discuss their hardships in achieving fame, just as an example of the Asian path to fame. One of them set 2 or 3 Guinness World Records for record sales and the other is worth 1.6 billion (2022 figure), so they're not small potatoes. It really makes me appreciate someone when I know how much effort they have put into achieving their dreams.

2023-12-11 02:16:57 +0000 UTCOooo amazing. Think it is a great idea. I know some cringe a little at Dimash’s first concert. He was so eager to put on. Show. However, you can’t understand how far he has come without it. So, I imagine it is the same with every artist. Part of what shapes them. BTS the free standing concert during hustle life is so far from who they are today. 😊
