Thought I’d post this here as well! Video gift since it’s a concert and since I don’t film concerts often.. Links are below

My Chemical Romance - Dodger Stadium - July 27, 2025 - Los Angeles, CA

Notes: Great HD Capture of this new electric theatrical tour with almost no obstructions. The first part of the set features MCR as The Black Parade, playing the entirety of their 2006 album, with a much different storyline than the original as it doesn’t concern about The Patient anymore, it is now telling the story of The Black Parade being used as an oppressive regime’s military band and their rebellion against the oppressive regime, really amazing to watch! Also, this is one of the only two shows where The Grand Immortal Dictator is played by a real actor, not a mannequin.

Before the second half of the set, there is a small intermission with a cellist (Clarice Jensen). The second half focuses on MCR’s regular setlist, playing their hits along with some rare songs! This video was filmed on a point and shoot, so around the 30min mark, there are some jump cuts during it but, it is the full show. It was also filmed from nosebleeds so, yes, it will be a little grainy unfortunately. A

TheBootlegNerd is finally back with a new release!!!

New 4K Video: Back to The Future: The Musical - First National Tour - November 29, 2024 - Los Angeles, CA - Evening

Cast: Caden Brauch as Marty McFly, Ross Thompson u/s Doc Brown, Burke Swanson as George McFly, Ethan Rogers as Biff Tannen, Kiara Lee as Jennifer Parker, Cartreze Tucker as Goldie Wilson/Marvin Berry, Laura Sky Herman as Linda McFly/Stella Baines, Zan Berube as Lorraine Baines, Luke Antony Neville as Strickland/Lou/Sam Baines/Mayor Red Thomas, Fisher Lane Stewart as Dave McFly/Slick, Dwayne P. Mitchell u/s 3-D, Zoë Brooke Reed as Betty/Pretty Baby Trio, Alyssa Carol as Babs/Pretty Baby Trio, Joshua Blackswan Abbott as Reginald/Starlighter, Emily Applebaum u/s Clocktower Woman, Tade Biesinger as Ensemble, Luther Brooks IV as Ensemble, Michael Seltzer s/w Ensemble, Ben Lanham as Ensemble, Ina Black as Pretty Baby Trio

Notes: Great 4K Capture of the show a couple days before the last show in LA with most of the full cast with a few understudies. First video to feature Ross as Doc and he was spectacular! Caden, Ross, Burke, and Zan were some of the stand out members to me and they did this performance well! As a Back to The Future fan, this cast was incredible and the effects were on point. There is some wandering within the video along with some noticeable blackouts due to some activity in the audience for some reason/very bright scenes and the footage does get a little shaky at points. However, the important action of the show is captured. Includes mostly blacked out and obstructed curtain call along with Caden’s BC/EFA speech. A-

Price: $10

New HD Video: MJ: The Musical - First US National Tour - January 21, 2024 - Los Angeles, CA

Daughtry as Nick/Berry Gordy/Don Cornelius/Doctor, Matt Loehr as Dave, Josh A. Dawson as Tito Jackson/Quincy Jones, Zuri Noelle Ford, Kendrick Mitchell, Jojo Carmichael, Kyle Dupree

Notes: Beautiful HD Capture of the first act of this incredible show with no obstructions, there are blackouts here and there though along with some shakiness. The only video recording of the LA run of the show. Due to intense security measures because of this production, there isn’t an Act Two video, filmer was confronted by an usher who was suspicious right before the end of the first act but, still got full Act One though. Audio from the second Act is included with the video. Footage from curtain call was recorded but, hasn’t not been found since recording the show, leading it likely to be lost. If found, links will be updated. A

Price: $10

A lot of obstructions that were worked around the best as much as I could, Act One isn’t great and rough to get through on filming but, Act Two is better filmed. Filmed in the new Empty Space location which is why the layout is different compared to the previous videos that were released. Great performances from the cast, really loved it. A-

Notes: Decent HD Capture of this incredible immersive revival. One of J. Elaine Marcos’ last performances as Sally, the first video to capture Jane as Nicole, and the only video of Rory as Jesus. Shot from my iPhone at one of the tables in front so, a lot of scenes are very closeup, there are some obstructions here and there with some seats including a pole during some moments. Despite that, pretty much all the important action is captured in the show. Includes outdoor footage and a short post show speech done by original LA cast member Paul Nygro. A-

Notes: Great HD Capture of the Closing Night of this production. There are a couple of heads that block any action at the bottom but, other than that, all the action is captured from there. This cast was incredible, how they aren’t the touring cast is my question, they’re very talented. A

Hi, is your discord server still open to join? Thank you in advance!

Sure, I’ll dm you!!

[callmelasagna]

The world is under mass destruction, you’re given a safe bunker that will shield you and protect your life, you can only bring one bootleg of yours and another video from someone else, what videos would that be and why?

Ok so let's look at this logically. Assuming I'm gonna be in this bunker for a long time, potentially forever. It has to be something I won't get sick of after a week so that rules out any shows with pop scores. Has to have some amount of depth to it for me to over-analyze and make up theories about and write deranged bunker fanfiction for. Preferably it would be a show that I haven't seen enough to have fully committed to memory, because I could easily recreate that.

We have to consider what "mass destruction" really means. Is every trace of the world gonna be wiped out? Will there be any survivors? Is there hope for us to rebuild? The shows I would pick for myself and myself alone are gonna be different to those that I pick to be the last surviving remnants of a world long gone, and the only thing left to inspire hope in those tasked with rebuilding it. Whatever the case may be, we'd wanna avoid any shows that are too much of a downer (sorry Cabaret). Additionally, depending on the severity of the destruction it is likely that any major cultural landmark movie musicals would survive in some form or another so those are less of a priority.

So we're looking for a show that's modern but still holds cultural importance, that can inspire hope while still standing as a reminder of the reality of the past, that has depth and can be enjoyed over and over again.

The two shows that come to mind for me that fit this description are Hadestown, and Come From Away.

I've only filmed Come From Away once and that was a few months into my filming career so it is Not The Best, which means I have to pick someone else's for that, and use one of my own Hadestown videos. Objectively my best filmed Hadestown video is probably June, 2023. However the best cast I've filmed in my opinion is November, 2022 (1). Additionally it was my first time seeing the show after being a fan for years and it holds a bunch of sentimental value for me. So, even though there are some heads, I think I have to go with that one as my first pick.

Come From Away is a little harder. There are so many great videos of this show and so many great casts. I could just go with the proshot but that feels like a copout. So, continuing with the message of hope, I think I'd go with juniper47's September, 2021 video from shortly after re-opening from the broadway closures in the wake of the covid pandemic. Just as a little reminder that even when it feels like the world is ending, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

So in conclusion, the two videos I'd pick are

Hadestown - Broadway - November, 2022 (1) - Lasagna's video Come From Away - Broadway - September, 2021 - juniper47's video

So… I haven’t really posted on Tumblr in a few years but, I decided to do a post today to promote an Instagram adaptation of this account I made today, it isn’t called “TheBootlegNerd” for obvious reasons but, I made it, I don’t know specifically what I’ll do with it, I don’t know if I’ll post videos or pictures from the show I see, I really don’t know how this whole master/trader Instagram works but, I’m gonna figure it out, but if anyone wants to give a follow, the link is below, it is a private account but, I’ll approve as fast as I can.

Hello! I am an actor joining a major tour... I am looking to commission a bootleg for my family and just for posterity for me. Wondering if you take commissions or know someone who does? thanks!

I’m sorry but, I currently don’t do commissions at the moment right now. But, DM me with more information on the bootleg you want to commission (location-wise, time/day, etc) and I’ll see what master is near the area or is free to be able to help you out.

WARNING!!!!!

SO here, something serious, i hate talking bad about a person, sincerely I hate to waste my time with bullshit, i hesidated to do it but after seeing that, there is a moment when we must act, read evething plz.

this guy toonpunkdemon on Tumblr, PunkToonz on Discord, Creepythekiller1304 on Deviantart and PunkToonzArtz on Twitter. beware of this guy, he can be violent and unstable, he fed a stupid drama that I suffered it a few weeks ago some of you know. he has disrespected me and threaten me for something that does not even concern him but it’s clearly not the most serious, I do not event take the time to come back on the drama, here it’s not the question, i’m much happier now and my dear Mr Oddcat too.

Many of you know him, he’s a serial watcher, he try speaks to people with kindness like a friend to be able to put your ocs with his ocs no doubt, he was the same with me before, he does that with everyone, some will recognize themselves but from what i’ve see and from personal experience it usually ended badly so i think that should happened to me sooner or later given his behavior, DO NOT TRUST HIM, it’s not ok.

I WOULD NO SAY THIS FOR NO REASON SOME OF MY FRIENDS CONFIRM ME WHAT I THINK.

he travel from server to server discord.

i wanted to ignore him and forget about him, i do not care about his life, i would not do that if he bothered ONLY me and then i discovered that this guy annoys a lot people, i see good people, friends bored by him, some still suffer today, its can not continue BUT THE WORST IS THIS:

WHEN THERE IS CONSENT BETWEEN THE TWO PEOPLE, A MUTUAL AGREEMENT THIS IS NOT DISTURBING BUT HERE IS CONTRARY TO ALL ETHICS 

IT’S WORSE THAT I THOUGHT oof I dare not even imagine for other people. I do not want him to come and hurt other people for no reason, it seems he can do it, i only talked about it to my good friends but now people deserve to know, i say in all benevolence, i am aware, this guy has so much an oversized ego, he’s showing unimaginable bad faith and will probably try to denigrate me but HEY I’M READY OH IF YOU KNEW, it’s important to inform people of the situation. To say negative things about a person, annoys me, even if that person feels no remorse for doing this, I do not know if he’s suffering from a psychological problem or anything like that but anyway it’s not an excuse for insulting people and making them feel very bad, this lack of respect for people and sometimes even people whom he calls “friends” before is unacceptable, if for him it’s only a game, understand that it’s just not NORMAL. I did not want to come to this end but knowing that, the fact that he looks at a lot of people makes me very uncomfortable, it really becomes toxic, i would not do it if it was not necessary but now it is certainty that he bother other people so we would take the necessary steps to at least warn.

People are tired of this. IT’S TIME TO STOP

I would like to thank @alavidere @eliana55226838 @vanxllavixen @lady-glim @paneritas @startoonz @parliy @zombie-paradise @toon-up @gaby-sunflower95 @chaotic-milkshakes @sirenssanity for support and help!

thanks for reading, sorry a long post and my english is not perfect, i know than it does not concern everyone then at your own risk.
