I smell bullshit mate. Everyone loves a "missed my autograph but met him in a bar later" story. Bollocks

@@simplissity like I have to ask where have you ever seen that exact story, it's 50\50 bullshit but you pinpointed to yeah heard that one before mate, I haven't...

i was at that signing too and won a ticket to the secret gig.. they were giving out cards to the first few hundred.ppl at the signing and in some of the cards were invitation.. i had my first proper kiss at that gig in the Scala London..2004 i think.. and yeah the signing was at HMV oxford street and Ville was know for drinking at the crow bar 5 minutes from there .. so there's a chance your story is true from my perspective

@@simplissity why could this not happen? I’ve met bands at bars nearby the venues they play. It’s a pretty normal thing. And Ville is known for his drinking history and being a kind person. If it’s bs idk why you would make that up, usually people make up being friends with celebrities not them being nice when they met they at an event.

People don't believe anything these days if there is no fkn digital 'proof'.. stuff like this happens in real life, but now, if it aint on KZfaq or social media, etc, it doesn't exist apparently and is a lie

or ham with bim

eddie dean Guess there's a little typo over there. Sorry about that. Ha!

Nico Pohjola Once again... :p

+Nikki Angelus That's true, I also connect Bam with HIM (I had never heard of Bam before), and I am from Germany. Got into HIM at the end of 1999 when Join Me was aired on German radio :)

I think in the whole Europe! actually I'm still not sure who this Bam is but whatever:D @greetingsfromPoland

Why do you need proof to think this? You can tell by the footage, Dunn's humour and documentaries

I think they are just two pros who know that if certain questions are asked they are expected to answer a certain way. I mean, when asked a question that is LITERALLY aiming at getting to hear "a memory of Ryan Dunn", do you really think they're gonna say "Phew, nah, he was a shithead."? They pause, buy time by asking how long ago it was and then continue saying general stuff that "everybody was saying" about him. Their answers are polite, the way one talks about dead people. Nobody really knows if they were any closer than people are when they are mainly partying together. I am sure we all know party friendships like that that don't last and in the long run don't mean anything.

@@PlayMyDarling If you think the CKY/ viva la bam and HIM relationship meant nothing you’re oblivious to the fact that it was huge for their career and they spent many moons together. BAM even filmed 3 videos for them on the Love Metal album. It’s a little more impactful than an acquaintance at random parties. Dumb logic dude. Just cuz bands give press pleasing answers in interviews doesn’t mean their emotions don’t shine thru. They clearly looked uncomfortable when asked about how impactful BAM was to their success cuz they don’t only want to be known for that and feel he gets too much credit. Read between the lines bro. They meant what they said about Dunn it’s not a coincidence when everyone says the same things about someone.

Brett Nesbitt when I watch that show now I feel older than fuck.

Brett Nesbitt early to mid 200s was great. Fuck I miss my childhood. I still have season 1 of viva la bam on DVD.

Ivanasukalot damn you grew up in the early and mid 200s? You are old.

fuck yeah

Indeed!!

The King deeper voice of whatnot.

I mean, it’s pretty deep in his music as well.

@@blackstep_dad2572 thanks dad

Man what a memory

@@mizbanks4764 honest to god im a grown man and could cry thinking about it lmaooo

pics or it didn't happen

@@JuanAppleseed-ge6tb I have the VIDEO somewhere, I’ll follow up on this

A black hoodie and Walmart Maiden shirt? Ooook? Didn't know that SCREAMED "I'm a music fan!".

So true, I loved every song they put out until the screamworks album, venus doom was the last album in which I loved every track. I haven't "lovingly" listened to them in a decade but can still recite every one of their songs from before screamworks.

me too :P you can obviously see the impact he had on my internet name :p

I watched Grind like 100 times

Haaaa fuckin grind Sweet lou cleans no mans poo

I wonder where are all those Grind people now. Saw only a couple of them in the movies, but not Sweet Lou, and he was hilarious! Also I watched it with a very lousy Russian translation that sometimes made no sense, I'm pretty sure there are jokes I never got because of that dubbing, but still so nostalgic).

they're like "WHAT? REALLY?" Bam doesn't deserve any credit about the band... maybe in the states was thank to Bam that they won fame and fans, but in the rest of the world BAM has no credit for Him's popularity, fame and the legion of fans they have.

yesss :D

I heard from HIM because of Bam and I'm from Perú, Bam was known internationally

+Laura Korpens Maybe not in europe, but here in the states, Bam's coincidental connection with them helped them get on Jimmy Pop's label and got them a good amount of success here. Even a gold record.

aldown i heard about him before bam and i from Perú too

same here! i got the soundtrack and been hooked since

You're hot!!

I just read the comment, I have a copy of the album from 2004 and I ran to see the songs, 17 years tending the album, and until today I discover that CKY and HIM are there, I never paid so much attention to the album because I bought it since Rammstein is between the bands, I have been a fan of Jackass and CKY since 2005 and I never knew until today that HIM and CKY are on the album, I feel like an idiot

Ditto!

Hey Guys Micheal Here same

Hey Guys Micheal Here razerblade romance such a good album

Mine was right here in my arms

Same here 🖤

You knew him?

TheOneAndOnly Russ Same here. I didn't get into CKY or Jackass until high school but already had HIM's first 4 albums in middle school

TheOneAndOnly Russ and even finding them in America would be damn near impossible had it not Been for bam seeing as he started pushing them really hard in like 99' 00'

TheOneAndOnly Russ same

same here!

Same here....a friend's girl put me on to them.

lmao

waaaiiit... that's not mige, is it? i feel like a dumb ass now.

jean tyce it is Mige :)

+feliciiaab - That was in a scene where Bam was waking his brother up with a guitar and actually it was the solo from that song and not the into. But it was quite butchered too. I remember recognizing where it is from and telling my brother who was also a guitar player what song that was and he was like "wtf are you talking about that's not remotely that" and I said well it's butchered for fuck sake, Bam isn't a musician. He still didn't believed me yet he had more experience with guitar and better tone hearing then me yet I nailed it L0L.

DjGodaryD86 All I know is that Bam played the song on his jukebox in an episode :) And I heard one line from the song.

feliciiaab - Shit my bad I forgot that part yeah XD Now I know what you mean. :) I mixed up the scenes but yeah Bam actually plays a solo on his brother's guitar waking him up look it up, it's hard to explain it's better and more interesting when you watch it :D Back to the scene which you mentioned. I remember now that and I also remember when I first saw that scene I was surprised that Bam and Ryan liked HIM same as I do. It's one of my favorite bands.

+DjGodaryD86 No problem :)

Thx Bam? Did he write the music and played it?

I completely agree.

Gotta love Ville!!! :) ♡♡♡

Hello Jennifer

Hello Barbie

Z kazaa! Forgot all about that

You're an idiot. The lack of likes proves it.

Bug!..lol

Bam said not as much because Ville is sober now

Alot of the originals don't talk to Bam anymore.. It's quite sad.

Oh, so he's racist...

@Skratch Rapture I figure calling someone a black bastard was racist. Could be wrong, though....

@Skratch Rapture That's your opinion, not a fact. I disagree. I never argue or debate with white people about race or racism as often they don't really know what they're talking about, so I'll end the debate here. Continue as you wish.

@Skratch Rapture Have a good evening.

Back in March. More to come soon!

Ville Vallo is a funny guy huh?

I guess 4 music videos is a few 😂 Severely downplayed Bam's involvement. And Love Said No is one of their most visually beautiful videos...I guess Ville has his reasons. I wish they write a tell all one day about what we don't know.

What??.. I am a fan of HIM since the late 90s and I found out about this Bam guy when I read a HIM biography in train a year ago. 😂

Maybe in the States but HIM was huge in Europe without any jackass guys

you would. But a bit later.

Heartagram was around before bam 🤦‍♂️

Ville drew and made up the symbol at age 20

C D Christ u must be young

Nope he got it from bam who got it from me years ago..

@@cd1528 HIM we’re a big band from Finland they started in the early 90s
