Man... I can't believe I to cancel my event. Oh, well, guess I'll just get back to making commentary videos
It just sucks that the last two videos on my channel are, "Hey guys! I'm doing something!"
"...Never mind." You know, I really need to remind myself that even though I have a fanbase
They're really only following me to see my videos, not pay a bunch of money to go to some
Overpriced, poorly put together even--
Oh hey, Jake Paul's going on tour!
That should be good!
Hey little stinkers, and welcome back to YouTube.com, a website
I created 13 years ago while taking a nap.
Uh, today we're gonna be looking at the Team 10 Tour. What is it?
Why is it, and how the fuck did we get here?
Let's read the description here to get an idea of what this tour might be about;
"You see them on your screen every single day .
Now get ready to experience Jake Paul and Team 10 in person on their debut world tour.
You can expect to see the same level of craziness on stage as you do on the screen
mixed in with some exciting live musical performances,
audience participation,
Special guests, games and challenges, it's going to be a jam-packed and unforgettable show!"
Yeah, that sounds great and all but what do they mean by 'games and challenges'? Aren't they just gonna be like singing songs and stuff?
They gonna...Are they gonna stop in the middle to do like...
...The cinnamon challenge?
We're gonna do a round of trivia with the audience?
I'm almost certain that they were just like short on buzz words
During the 30 seconds it took to write out this description and they were like,
"Let's just say, uh, 'games and challenges'...
...That sounds fun." But maybe I'm nitpicking,
Let's watch the hype video, the announcement video for the tour. "14 million subscribers on YouTube...
What is next?"
"I'm doing a tour, we're going to 20 cities in the US."
"This show is like super, super next level, like, I am trying to make it a legit musical where...
...We're acting, dancing, singing, twerking, laughing, the whole nine yards! I'm super excited to meet you guys!"
"I am literally so excited to meet all of my goats!"  *makes goat sound*.
Maybe I'm behind on Team 10 lore,
But I have no idea why she just did a goat sound
Also why the random shot of her and Jake making out?  Is that what they're gonna do at the show?
Tour is gonna be *insane*!  I cannot *wait*! Baby, go and buy that tour ticket!  Woo!
Guess they're plan with this video was to just make a series of loud noises
Hoping that that would be enough to convince their fans to buy tickets
Speaking of tickets
Let's see how much they are.  The first ticket
Advertised the first one you see when you click on this venue, VIP 1: Jake Paul Gold VIP Experience.
$1,000.
$1,000.  That's more than my rent!
Let's see
What comes with that.  One general admission ticket, priority viewing of the show - that to me sounds vague,
That doesn't sound like anything -  pre-show hang out with Jake Paul and other members of Team 10,
Autographs from Jake Paul and other members of Team 10, one personalized video,
One meet-and-greet with Jake Paul, one selfie photo with Jake Paul, one Jake Paul backpack, one Jake Paul Team 10 Jersey,
exclusive Jake Paul pin set,
one signed and numbered
Lithograph?  One exclusive holographic commemorative laminate, and an invitation to crowd free merchandise
Shopping. I love that that's thrown into the
$1,000 tier sure. You just spent
$1,000 to go to a show and get some free merchandise,
But in addition to that, you also get to shop for more merchandise without the hassle of a crowd weighing you down.
Ticket fee, a hundred and thirty five dollars.  Bringing the subtotal up to eleven hundred and forty three
Dollars.  Why would the ticket fee? What what does that mean? Is that the charge to print the tickets?
What is the service fee exactly and why isn't that just included in the thousand dollars?
I also like that this website is like, "Oh you're going to Jake Paul?
You might also like Ted Nugent!"  If we were to make a Venn diagram
of Ted Nugent fans and Jake Paul fans
The two circles would be in like separate rooms part of me kind of wants to spend
$1,100 on the Jake Paul VIP experience
Just to see what it's all about to see if it's worth the money and of course to get a chance to meet Jake Paul
But then there's this other part of me that's like, "Drew, that would be the worst purchase you've ever made.  Please...
...don't do that." Even worse though!
While those two parts of me were battling it out, a third part of me that I didn't even know about just bought two general
Admission tickets for me and Amanda. Here's a sentence
I never thought I'd say YouTube vlogger and disgraced former Disney Channel star Jake Paul is
headlining his own show at the
Historic House of Blues.
The same House of Blues built on a rich history of rock and roll icons such as Pearl Jam
Aerosmith a yellow car, but tonight the stage belongs to Jake. It was a fittingly gloomy day outside
Contrary to popular belief Florida summers are pretty consistently rainy and today was no exception.
As a result everybody entered the building soaking wet and miserable. It was perfect
It's also worth noting that this particular
House of Blues is nestled inside none other than Disney Springs an outdoor shopping center owned by Jake's former employer
I imagine it was a real homecoming for him and as such my expectations were through the roof
Oh speaking of the roof someone on top of it is dabbing and kids are cheering
Why does it feel like I won't make it out of here alive the line to get in wrapped around the building and was filled
To the brim with exactly the demographic you'd imagine would be in line for Jake Paul
after
Sidetracking a bit to take a selfie in front of the team ten tour bus Amanda and I made our way back to the line
Which moved pretty quickly once the doors open ones inside we trekked straight to the bar where I let a man to buy any amount
of alcohol
And as an apology for making her come to this with me while there we were accompanied by hordes of soon to be drunk moms
Most of whom probably could not even fathom the amount of discomfort that was to ensue
Over 30 minutes had passed since the show was slated to begin and not a single person had come out on stage
no one knew when the show was going to start or if it already had and this silence was just the opening act in an
unsuccessful effort to provoke any form of entertainment the sea of increasingly Restless children
combined enchant every couple of minutes but to no avail Jake and his gang were still nowhere to be seen but then graciously at around
7:42 p.m. A human being entered the stage the crowd screamed that concert was about to begin wait
No, that's that's not Jake. Who is that? Actually is it?
chant sir
Nick Crompton, no, he's not here. Oh, okay. There we go.
His name is DJE-V.
And let me just say from the moment. This guy walked out on stage
The energy in the room was unlike anything I've ever seen
This guy kept asking every minute or so that people liked his Facebook page
He also plugged Instagram about nine times
DJE-V: On Instagram, @ev.
Normally this could be perceived as a bit of a slap in the face to artistic value or whatever
But I can't really blame him
Tonight is his one and only time to shine and he knows it actually did some research on this guy after the show and found
Out he really only has a few original songs, and I only remembered him playing one of them
He's pretty much been able to make a career out of getting on stage and playing other people's music. So
Indeed they were killing it why just take a look at how the lights on the Left match the lights on the right almost perfectly
Finally the DJ is done now it's time to bring out team with a fucker these kids
They both look and sound like if a regular adult rapper got hit by a shrink-ray
But I've got to hand it to these guys for the way they managed to
Masterfully combine the repetition of gucci gang with the eloquent rapping
Only a pair of ten year olds could provide they were energetic they were loud and the crowd loved it everyone on stage
That wasn't Jake Paul seemed very aware that nobody cared about them as they are not Jake Paul
Because of this they would come up with ways every 30 seconds or so to remind people that Jake Paul is here
they'd ask something like who's ready for team ten the crowd would scream thinking maybe they're about to come on stage and then they'd just
Continue doing what they were already doing. I
Think the funny is part of the entire show was when this girl's sunny hyped up the crowd before ending a song
Nice it was at this point that I realized how much I underestimated the talent in this performance. Look at this girl, for example
She's able to sing words while mouthing different words
Absolutely incredible
All right
Let's timeout here for a second as we try to figure out who it actually is that people paid money to see sunny Malouf
Malouf there's a chance that name might ring a bell for you
And if it does it's probably because you've heard of this news story from a couple years back this private water park belongs to Texas
most famous dentist, dr
Richard Malouf a dentist named Richard Malouf made headlines when he bought a 20 million dollar home
next to his 20 million dollar home and attached them to
Create 150 million dollars super home
This man is Sunny's dad and the 50 million dollar house at he owns is where she grew up
The only reason I even bring that up is to answer a question that I had
Which is how do people like this who have -- no offense sunny --
but absolutely no talent make it into a group as popular as team 10? And
the answer is money money that was not earned by these individuals but rather
by someone in their family like her first song was a song about having
$100,000 on her wrist
From what? She's 14 ,if she has a
$100,000
bracelet or watch
or Fitbit or whatever the hell, it was given to her. Another perfect example of this weird
Second hand bragging was displayed by the very next performer to come out, Justin Roberts. Which is quite possibly the least showbiz name
I've ever heard. This guy's one and only song was about how he's been rich since he was four.
How does someone think it's cool to in a song?
brag about money that they were given? What? What we're witnessing here is an
Unprecedented lack of self awareness in a group whose leader is the poster child for this kind of behavior. Hey speaking of Jake
It's been over an hour and a half. Is that guy come out on stage anytime soon?
Well, most of my energy is long gone at this point, and my phone is already halfway dead
But at around 8:49 P.M.
Almost two hours after entering the building
Jake Paul has come out on stage the gist of this opening sketch is that Jake from four years ago was having a bad dream
Where he mentioned some references from the future?
He wakes up on stage and monologues about all of the things he's going to do one day why if he could only move to California
Jake: If I'm gonna move you to Los Angeles
I'm gonna need agents. I'm gonna need managers. I'm gonna need departmental living.
Drew: I'm pretty sure only one of those things is true
Jake: You know what, I'm gonna need a team if I move to Los Angeles
Drew: My favorite part of this introduction was how as each of the individual members was getting their own inauguration
The people who had already come out had to just kind of stand there awkwardly and look back at the screen
There's a pretty beautiful irony in the fact that more than half of team tens
Most iconic song is performed by people that are no longer in team ten. So how do they get around this?
You might ask maybe they'll write a new verse to show off some of their newer members like Sonny and Ericka
Nah, just cut it off after a minute. I
Was wrong, I guess Jake and Erica making out was part of the show
Remember when Jake described the tour as a fun-filled musical with live action comedy skits
I think this is one of them Oh
Chad buddy we can see your screen you silly goose
wait
How do you keep getting the same girls?
To come back after you've already swiped left on them turns out this whole sketch was made just to transition into their next song called
Malibu because this song is called Malibu and she's
From Malibu as indicated by the bold text under her name that wasn't under anybody else's
What these guys are already a song and a half in good idea to go ahead and take a break so they go backstage and
Eat KFC. There's this whole pre-recorded sketch where we're supposed to believe. I guess that Jake and Anthony are
backstage right now
conceptualizing and creating a song that they released a year ago, and then naturally they came out and saying I
I was wondering when Logan was going to appear this part was weird
basically Logan comes on fake FaceTime to get mad at Jake without ever saying
What he did that made him mad and then Jake was like but bro, I love you and Logan was like, bro
I love you. And Amanda was like my beers have worn off. I'm leaving I kind of wish I had done the same
So I know that like this FaceTime call isn't live
I know it's pre-recorded, but couldn't they have at least tried to make it seem live by recording Logan's part at night
Because these shows are at night like why is it 10:00 p.m. In Orlando and 1 p.m
In Los Angeles. Oh, well, at least the song is good
In an effort to pass the time Jake did this thing where he just kind of asked the crowd to scream over and over again
So we could prove Orlando is the most lit City
Not to brag or anything, but we did win and this segment lasted over 3 minutes
Dance party. Oh, man
I really hope that that means you guys are just gonna jump around on stage for a while while you play other people's music
Yes, that's exactly what it meant. What a great way to spend over 10 minutes
All right
so
At this point I realized my phone was very close to dying
And if it did I probably would have never been able to find Amanda after the show
So I stopped recording here, but I'm gonna borrow some footage. I found from another youtuber who uploaded this concert
This next segment was the worst part of the entire night Cody and Noelle already did a really good job of
Dismantling this song that this whole sketch is centered around
But the sketch itself. Oh my god know if he cares about the Revolutionary War body
No, when you do we best-looking teacher sucks for trying to teach you boring shit instead of telling you about
Instagram so you get in his stupid little face and demand he teach you how to drive a car
Jake you know there actually are teachers who will teach you how to drive like, you know, that's a thing, right?
But yeah this idiot of a history teacher isn't telling you how to drive so you should throw him out the window
That's a good idea. I'm glad you're showing this to kids all over the country Oh
What is wrong with you this song is a slap in the face to everybody
Please don't do that. But hey, you know what? I've got to give him credit for this
Inspirational monologue he threw it next it really changed my life
He talked about how important it is to smile every day and get good grades
And if you're feeling sad don't be sad just stop being sad
I think it really resonated with the young audience and made everyone feel good
So then he started singing a song about how he has way more money than you and his life is great in your sucks
Wow what a night so far, I wonder what they're gonna do next though because I'm pretty sure they're out of songs
So I guess they could just play one of their songs over again. Yeah, that's that's what
Well guys, I'm back home now wearing the same shirt I was wearing in the intro for some reason
I guess my final thoughts on this entire experience was well, why did I do that?
This is the second time. I've spent money on a Jake Paul thing
In order to make a video about how bad it is and I'm starting to think that maybe I'm the one getting played here
I think the one positive that could have come out of this entire tour is that I'm
Hoping that the parents who came to the shows with these kids were finally able to witness
firsthand the kind of shitty influence that this team 10 group has on the people who watched their videos the type of
lifestyle and attitude that they promote like
Idolizing the idea of making as much money as possible so you can brag about it to other people
Physically assaulting your teachers. We're just trying to do their job
the optimist inside of me is thinking that all of the parents who came to these shows saw it and we're like oh
Yeah, you're done watching Jake Paul
Sorry, and if that's what they do, then the world will be a better place for it for some reason on the website
it says team 10th or
2018 as if to suggest that there will be more tours in the future. I
Just can't imagine a world where that happens
I think this was a one-and-done kind of deal and if it is, I guess I'm happy
I got to be a part of history. Anyway, guys that's gonna do it for the video this one took forever to edit
I will probably never make a video like this again. I didn't want to just do like it straight-up vlog
I wanted to like
you know film it and narrate it and kind of create this this story and
There was just so much footage and it was too much too much back to my regular content immediately
ASAP
That was the worst like it I can't yeah
That was the worst thing I've ever seen my entire life
