This is so real its borderline a TED talk
Honestly, as a musician this story is pretty inspiring. This guy quickly changed career paths in a city with no friends, had a hugely embarrassing first step, then went to on sell a boatload of a records with a militia's worth of genuine fans, all while maintaining whole other bodies of work.
Good job, Andrew.
does he for real still have fans from that party song released 20 years ago?
Bill & Bill`s Gentlemans Club yeah, I'm one of em
@@Turk_2023 it's bigger than that
Who is he?
@@Turk_2023 you'd be surprised.
He is not a comedian. He is a funny and charming guy and I think he really has something. I enjoyed this greatly. Dude has some balls of brass.
I honestly dont think that's fair he can go on stage and make people laugh. He may not be conventional but hes a comedian
Not a comedian but a funny guy? You may need to look up the definition of a comedian.
Failing to understand your logic. Entertained me and a whole crowd with some laughs.
I think what this guy means is that Andrew WK did not specifically set out to be a comedian by trade....but yet he takes to stand up comedy like a fish to water
Balls of brass. I just thought his pants was to tight 😂.
I get anxiety just listening to this.
why ? O_x
Have you ever been on stage and it has gone terribly wrong?
I know his name from a metal song that was really popular 16 years ago. He broke his own nose for the album cover and not originally a comedian. Give him some credit; stand-up is TOUGH.
Yeah, I wasn't shitting on the guy either. I'm sympathetic to the story precisely because I know how it feels to bomb on stage.
Nyars Channel I was just thinking same thing - this is just horrible- like it's happening to me
hes so clean he even said "gee whiz"
billyblackattacks It's a canadian thing
haha! no its fuckin not.
Fuzz FM hahaha fuckin eh right it's not.
Fuzz FM dude I'm subbed to you and just also happen to literally see you fuckin everywhere haha
you have great taste :D
This guy looks like he's moonlighting as a Winterfell guard
Mabey shes born with it maybe its winterfell
Lol!!!!!
I was playing skyrim while I was listening to this!!
This comment hasn't gotten the love it deserves, brilliantly funny.
his anxiety kinda makes his set even better cuz you can relate to him so much lmao
He' did ia good job. Could definitely tell he was super nervous but he played it off well. I was sort of dying for him when he had to close his eyes and gather his thoughts. But he pulled through. Great job W.K.
sick piss
It's part of the joke.
@@robertgibson9619 was it though?
@@stephenlambert9826 Who Knows?
@@joshwilkesbooth well if it was it needs changing
I was never really a fan of his music, but saw him live at a festival one year and dude is a true rock star. Extremely talented performer - seems like he gives his all no matter what he's doing. Definitely the real deal - nothing but respect for him.
This felt sincere and intimate. Thanks w.k.
The fact that he went on cold in front of an audience of strangers after thinking he was going to get a simple, low-stress private audition is worthy of praise.
Yeah it does, that’s in a way how you could tell he was gonna make it
Destroy build destroy
MickBärnhardt i was gonna say that
Jackson Bland lmao
I just spit out my drink lmao
Holy shit you’re right
The only good live action show Cartoon Network ever produce.
This dude is gentle giant
I fucking love this. Watching a guy try to do stand-up, but he's actually a talented performer so he knows how to hold a crowed despite not "talking" for a living... it's really neat to watch. I even laughed at stuff, and was really gripped into this story. Really fun.
This guy is so wholesome and adorable. I loved watching this, I like his storytelling style and vibe
He’s actually a really good story teller. He put a lot of heart into that.
He seems like such a nice guy I'd love to meet him
He's the best. I met him at a USO function. Genuinely one of the nicest, most down to earth people you could ever meet. He's one of those people that you just get this feeling that he is completely stoked to be here (wherever here is) and that you have every single bit of his attention. He really is a great guy.
I met him at SDCC at a hotel lobby. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met. The next day on the convention floor, he was walking by and called my name just to high five me.
He’s super nice met him on New Years during his concert
I met him outside the Electric Factory (a medium-sized venue in Philadelphia) almost 20 years ago. He opened for whoever it was i went to see. Sadly, I missed his bands' set. Anyway, he came out and I was standing there holding like 4 bottles of water. He asked me for one and when I gave it to him, he was super appreciative and grateful. It took a second for me to realize who he was. Then I was like, "wow, Andrew w.k. is profusely thanking me for a bottle of water." We talked for like 40 minutes and afterward we shook hands and he pulled me in for the quick hand-shake-man-hug. But, yeah, he was so nice and friendly. And, he really gives you his attention. I've met lots of bands and band members (mostly metal bands). But, Andrew was one of the most down to earth, polite and sincere guys I've ever had the pleasure to meet.
10 out of 10, would meet again.
Andrew WK is like the complimentary Spy vs Spy to Nathan Explosion
Yous hits its nails on these heads
Wow so true! That cartoon needs to happen!
Well that is the most perfect comparison of anything ive.heard I think
BRILLIANT!
This is my favorite of this series. Andrew was so charming, warm, poignant, and funny. I know it must be nerve-wracking but he was a lot better than 90 percent of the comedians who do this. He has such a loving, positive presence which is what the world needs a lot more of.
SO THERE ARE OTHER MEN THAT ARE JUST AS EMOTIONAL AS I AM??!! Thank you for sharing your story, dude. I feel much better knowing i'm not the only one who experiences things so emotionally.
such a beautiful story. so raw, and so honest. we need more people like him in the world. and it was absolutely charming that he recognized the most important aspect of that story, which was that some random person in the audience "cared" about him, even though he didn't know him. That is what keeps humanity going....empathy. and it's the most beautiful thing in the world
He's so wholesome.
I think it's so insane this dude used to play with Wolf Eyes. Like, he's so sweet.
I personally love this series because it's about story telling and not just laughs. Being able to tell stories is a great life skill, not just for laughs or entertainment.
Not really a skill just a mindset.
@@orange70383 yeah OK but public speaking is still a skill to me and not just a mindset. Although mindsets help. And attitude?
daym...hes fine. need a gentle beast like this in my life
Met him at the Gathering of the Juggalos. He’s such a genuine good guy. Just flat out awesome.
Oh gawd you're one of those
I worked stage crew for Andrew in Michigan. He was a real cool dude. This intimate story has so much heart.
Andrew WK is the best man I’ve ever known. I love you, Andrew. My life would be worse without you in it
Bro doesn’t even know who you are
Andre WK is an international treasure.
He really does seem like a nice, interesting guy, he makes you laugh like one of your best childhood friends did, like he's having a conversation with you instead of doing an "act". His arms are huge, how is he not crushing the mike? He'd be the friend who looks like he would protect you but he's probably to nice to fight.
Dude is huge
It's even more shocking in person how massive he actually is.
His dad is also very tall; he was my property law professor (very famous professor, wrote the main casebook on property law that's basically ubiquitous).
6'3" and started working out. Yeah, he has put on some muscle.
I wanna fight him. An exhibition for sport, not out of malice. He looks like he hits hard.
Boomhauer 😂😂😂
I have to do a school talent show and I decided to do stand up having never done stand up in my life, and I feel like this is the exact video I needed to see
How did you do?
I did stand up in grade 6 for the school talent show
Luke Perry how did it go?
Did you do it?
Tell us how it went
Ah man, this hit me hard. In 2009 I went to audition for an MTV reality show. I wanted to be an actor, but had no clue as to what that world was like. I was barely 20.
I showed up to the audition and there was a panel of 3 people sitting at a small fold out portable white table. Ya know, the ones with the grey fold out legs?
They handed me a script and asked me to read from it. I got through it, but with absolute nervousness unlike any I'd ever experienced. I choked some of my words and fumbled with the paper. I must've looked so dumb.
Afterward, one of the people at the table walked me out and said "I saw on your application you had 6 years of theatre and drama. What happened?"
I told him the truth. I'd never been in such a personal space. When I auditioned in middle and high school everyone knew me so I was comfortable. Here... I was in unknown territory.
He told me "You won't get this spot, but with a bit of practice you'll be able to get others."
Never auditioned again out of embarrassment, but the words kinda stuck with me. I apply that same logic in most things I do these days.
Just the way he tells the story fits its perfectly, fuckin hilarious man
Does anyone else feel they have to mute the intros just to enjoy the stories sequentially?
Dean Juliano I just skip through them to when the comedian starts
yeah the intros kinda suck imo
@@forrestthroughdatrees Me too.
I look forward to them🤷🏻♂️
I’ve learned they’re 50 seconds long so I just skip accordingly
The best part of this is that it's someone who isn't a comedian doing stand-up, and he's not telling prepped material, he's just telling a story. Obviously the music thing worked out for him in the end, the biggest take away is never be afraid to fail. It's painful, but you pick yourself up, dust the dirt off, and keep going.
he just proved something here.....you don't need to swear a lot to make something funny...WISDOM
Raoul Fleckman ya you have a point.. though
Wanna hop off that high horse? It's much more fun down here in the gutter.
yeah but if your story isn't that funny or youre really nervous it might get a shock value laugh which could help you mentally to slow down the thought process and control the audience
My god this was dry AF. Nice guy, sure. Funny? No, man, just... No.
It's not WISDOM, merely an observation. When you tell me it's wisdom, you're trying to tell me how to think. When you tell me how to think, it pisses me off. When I'm pissed, I often use foul language. Just not here. Besides, it's not really funny, just amusing.
this series is supposed to be interesting and meaningful not just "ha ha ha haha ha ha" isn't it? like we get that he isn't a top ten standup as far as making you belly laugh. he isn't a standup. he's a musician telling a story. it's a show with stories. lighten up.
lauris villi Exactly...it was tempered more like a good Moth story (check out Moth podcast if you don't know what that means).
lauris villi cool
"Comedy central" its funny stories dumbass.
It's like a cross of stand up and slam poetry and storytelling
laurbær villi dude wtf is wrong with you? Not only did the viewers listen up but they fully knew the story he was telling. Stop trying to show off because you think you can relate to him better
"Existential shattering of a human's soul." Hilarious.
Wow! I'm glad to see him! 😁
I remember YEARS ago MTV followed him around an HBCU, and one of the sistas braided his hair and he showed them how to "party like a rocker". 😂 He seemed so nice, and I never forgot about that show. ✌🏾
Andy is the best, i've been so fortunate to have him as a customer multiple time s and he is so down to earth it makes my day every time
He is the absolute most interesting and nicest person I have worked with, out of the 200+.
I-Cee Interviews yeah right, I would like evidence before I eat my words
Jamie Jenkins dude, what words, nobody knows or cares much what you have to say about this guy as the most unknown gatekeeper ever, it's not our job to provide you evidnence because you wanna scough at a sincere complement for someone you don't even know.
John Kaphery dude... look at his channel he clearly has the interview vid, you took a innocent joke to the next fucking level. R/whoooosh
Jamie Jenkins almost like tone doesn't convey over the internet. Weird, huh?
Mikk Wheeler that’s strange considering I sense your sarcasm
Why'd they take this off On-Demand? Comedy Central your slacking this is the best show you guys have.
CC always surprises me with weird decisions
because its standup. Dont u know cc doesnt do standup
Edwin Rodriguez gg
you're
Uhh South Park??
PARTY HARD!!!
BigNick66 Girens speech
Amazing! It's great to know everyone . . . EVERYONE deals with this. Thank you Andrew
So genuine and cute
I love this guy more and more every time I see him.
Somebody give this guy a hug........and a beer.
Aww he was so nervous! Too cute 😝
I don't think he realizes how much of an inspiration he is. 💙
I didn't realize how stacked this dude was.
Yeah, me too. XD
This dude is absolutely awesome.
He sounds Canadian as fuck
hes from michigan...so close enough
Michigan is just southern Canada
You don't catch me sayin "ay"
DrTittieSprinkles the fack are yoo talking boot ehh
He sounds like a Yooper.
He's so adorable
dude is such a positive guy. I've always liked him, never knew he did stand up. was pretty good!
Damn, good for him for going up there with all those nerves. Great crowd too, really helped him out.
Andrew W.K does stand up? cool. When it's time to laugh we will always laugh hard.
Jason just as he taught us to party, he teaches us to laugh
I just watched the video. Let me know when it's time to laugh
@@schrockstar I'm laughing at you now, you can laugh along with me if you want..
Such an inspiring story told thru a "failed" moment in life... I would agree with you, it's not what we've chased and succeeded at, but more it is what did we fail at, and where can we find the real nugget of truth... I've always learned more thru what I thought was my failure initially, only to find out later in life that it propelled me...
What an incredible dude. Hell of a story, too. I saw him back in like 2014 or 15 and the crowd for his set was more intense than The Acacia Strain's was that day. Truly a legend.
this is so awesome, made me want to cry. over came a shit situation, and dealing with stage fright to tell the story. think this could be very therapeutic to those with public speaking or performance fears. Even if it goes bad, life goes on and long run, it's not a big deal.
I like the really awkward style with which he told his story. I think that made it funnier than it would have been otherwise, to me at least. Also, I understand being on a certain time frame but you shouldn't just rudely cut off a performer, however inexperienced they may be. That's just bad form.
the awkward exit was totally him. i've seen him performa a few times and his entrance/exit is always awkward in toms way
mexican's got boots
I need a knife cece
You ruined it
@@ashkenad do do do didly dee manpang Lankan cabsri napi slabet namph vesi dem sati .......personal knife 😂

Andrew W.K is great need more people with this possessive energy
Wha? the fuck was Ari on... he was so fucked up on something while announcing Andrew W.K. LOL
You can tell he was just faded.
He must've done some of Joey Diaz's gummibears :-D
Can't fuck around with the gummy bears.
Them Stars of Death hahaha
He's tight with Joe Rogan, so probably THC suckers.
Its amazing how he could convey his anxiety during anxiety
He's very endearing. Someone you rootin for clearly...
I had Andrew's dad as my Property professor in law school. Great teacher.
He's so precious. And he's built. And he's funny. This is hype lol
I love how traumatized the dude in the blue checkered shirt was the whole time lmfao
Andrew, thank you for this story and thank you for your music.
Andrew W.K. is one of my favorite celebrities. He is not really in the public eye a lot so I'll take what I can get.
I've never been his biggest fan but that was fucking awesome. I love these "This Is Not Happening" videos.
WTF, he does this too?!?!
I want to be his friend.
Same, his music is great, and he seems pretty funny too! :)
I’ve never related to a celebrity, this dude is genuine. Or an Damn good actor
This guy always made my day
So real I could feel it story. Not so much funny as "I'm sharing a fucking real story" feeling. Kudos. You could feel his pain.
this guy's wearing the same clothes from when he had his cartoon network show
JOE MURRAY I feel like it smells like him, but doesn't stink. Like musky, but not musty.
he's ALWAYS worn those clothes, he's had the all white get-up going since 2001 !!
He's been doing it before cartoon network, way back when he released his debut album.
Or he just wears white shirts and white/light colored denim pants.
His with the guilty remanant. Duh.
I love Andrew wk! I'd like to marry someone like him one day
Me too!!!!
The most emotional comic session I ever watched...
being a dude that big with such relatable stage fright makes him even funnier in a cool way
This was so painful. I loved it!
Andrew WK? I've only been watching the series for a month but this is dope
he's like a puppy oh my god i loved every second of this
he's such a likable person oh my god
This audience doesn't appreciate how funny and awesome andrew wk is. Really good skit, he tells it well
What an A.W.K.ward situation he found himself in lol
I don't get it
Get out
i loved everything about this wow
I just want to give this Andrew W.K. a great big hug. What a nightmare tale!
YES!!!Andrew w.K you are the man!!!! u make me so proud to be from Michigan! thank you for all of the wonderful music!!
The guy in the first row, left to Andrew is so weird. Never laughs, doesn't blink (looks like he's about to sleep, or on drugs). He freaks me out.
He was partying hard
Maybe he just likes GOOD comedy.
Yeah, was thinking the same thing. Dude has such a clean cut creep/controlling vibe. I hate judging a book by its cover, but...
@@calviincalifornia4048 Nah, but you can have a punch in the face creepo
@@penjamin5037 nah
He looks like the lead singer of a cover band who performs songs from Danzig but also moonlights as a standup comedian. Pretty cool story though.
00majid00 Andrew W.K. covering Danzig is something I never knew I needed until now
No
00majid00 you need to check out his work, dudes a big deal.
Party party party we like to pArty
your confusion is understandable, see, his WWF name is Danzig ...
He told this story so well. Just so casual. Love it
First routine I've ever seen of him, really good, enjoyed it a lot. He's sensitive, funny, introspective and sound (...also can we talk about his arms...)
Destroy. Build. Destroy!
I love Cafe Wha! They usually show love to people that volunteer to step to the stage from the audience. But he was put in a horrible position. Poor guy.
This was so awesome! See a guy, who you you think is the party main focus, telling such a nice and warm story about introversion in a great and funny way, thanks Andrew WK for exist in our lifes!
That was really well done. He killed it.
Great story by a great man, and honestly something I think I needed to hear. Don't stop living in the red, people.
I love this guy so much and I don't even listen to his music
Omg I love Andrew!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍 He's always been a ball of sunshine in the darkest times in my life.Thank you my love😊🤗💗💖💓💞💕
So lovable
