It took more than a few tanks of gas to hit 100,000 views, but the memories have come both fast and furious. I will never forget the first VDub Session we shot with Taddy Porter. I visited The SPY FM studio and met Ferris for the first time. Busy with programming, he wasn’t 100 percent sure what I wanted to do with the van. He handed me the keys and I promised him it would be awesome.
And it was.
After more than 50 episodes, this music show has become one of the
most exciting parts of my life. It’s hard to pick a favorite memory from
VDub Sessions. Jonathan Fowler drove the van during our first Christmas episode in a Santa suit. O Fidelis invited their prized dachshund to sniff around the backseat of the van during their episode. The Polyphonic Spree fit 13 band members inside our tiny Vanagon to perform an amazing rendition of “It’s the Sun.”More than anything, VDub Sessions has been an amazing learning process. I’ve learned a great deal from shooting, editing and organizing sessions. I can’t think of a cooler way to learn about videography and get a pulse on what’s happening in Oklahoma. Cross your fingers that the van keeps running because I don’t have any plans to stop any time soon.
