Man, this brings back the fond memories. It's almost as though I remember watching it recently.

This is much better than “Too Many Cooks”

After seeing the "Come Ride With Us" part of the title I was a little disappointed when it wasn't based on this. But then I remembered it was an original Andy/Bradley song, and that's at least as good.

Always enjoy these post-Desert Bus videos. :)

Oh, the memories! I hope they come out with a dvd/bluray release soon, so I can rewatch them all at my own pace... and all with commentary tracks spanning the entire length of course.

On a more serious note; very special thanks to everyone involved in making this year's DB what it was. Crew, guests, chat, mods, donators, viewers, VST, Giffers, etc.: Congratulations on a job well done!

I love that this is both a "Too Many Cooks" parody and many times better than "Too Many Cooks." (If you had done "Too Many Cooks," I would have had to boycott the video, as I only just got the bussing song out of my head.)

Andy's song, on the other hand, is delightful, and whale plaid to Bradley for nailing the retro feel.

Cam's "entrance" was hilarious.
The Engineer "fader" was pretty cool.
Too many Matts! Too many Matts...
On Chris' card, I was like "You just got FRIDGED!"
The two that keep me laughing every time are Heather's and Kate's.
Also can't get enough of the Daddy Ashton/Skull NOPE! Epic Sax GIF.
Fugi: Stay in the woods. ;)

WE HAVE ANDY! DESERT BUS IS COMPLETE!

Not that it wasn't the best of the three I've personally experienced already, but y'know- Andy's a cool guy.

Ususally a torrent of all of Desert Bus is made available a few weeks after the end of Desert Bus.

In all fairness I wasn't being entirely serious there and just wanted to drop a line about a sore throat that would be the result of a 158h long commentary track. Now that I got that out of the way though... are you being serious about this?

asistradition is clearing harddrive space in anticipation

Yes, there are torrents for Desert Bus for Hope 5, 6 and 7 available and I believe there are plans for 8 to also be made available in torrent form.

However expect "a few months" rather than "a few weeks". The torrents for five and six weren't released until the spring or summer, and the torrent of seven is a fan-made one using a stream capture.

It's not a rap.

I might need some help filling out the actual surnames for the cast for the wiki.

Also... I didn't watch much Desert Bus this year, but... did Bill participate at all? I never saw him on cam. I was hoping he'd make at least one Season 11 appearance.

And DAMN, I love Morgan's new hair.

I have already added everyone's names to the wiki.

Bill did not make an appearance at this year's Desert Bus.

Is anyone else sad they didn't either credit Mike as "IQ 2000" or have him look disapprovingly at his name until it changes to IQ 2000?

I was expecting some sort of reference there, yeah.

In the case of Pika, Dix and Fugi everyone at the Lunar Module always referred to them by their nicknames while Mike was referred to as Mike. Likewise I am Chris in the video as that is what I was usually referred to even though I was called Chrusher a few time over the course of Desert Bus.

Also people commonly forget that there are two H's in my nickname.

See? I didn't know that was you. That being said Mike kept joking about his brand on camera, thats why we expected the joke. In fact at first I thought he was missing from the video.

Yes I'm quoting a post that's almost a year old. Sorry about that.

Back in April, I was suffering from a severe case of Desertbus Withdrawal. So I went through "binging" DB5, with the two downsides of there not being a chat and it not being (semi)live, but with the massive upside of a pause-button, so I didn't have to miss a second.

Then, last month, I basically had the same problem again, so to tackle it I went ahead and started to do the same thing with DB6, the last one I officially "missed". Now I've done that and consider myself 'caught up' with the last 4 runs, I'm in a bit of a tough spot. See, the thing is this:

During DB7 is when I discovered what desertbus even was. Until then I'd had kind of read an article about it somewhere which did (in hindsight) a quite poor job on explaining what it was, to the point where I was thinking of people driving an actual bus through an actual desert with apparently guests being picked up occassionally. Since I kinda picked it up midrun there is still some stuff for me to catch up on, but if I'm gonna start watching - knowing myself - I'm probably gonna watch the whole thing anyway. Question is, should I do that right now, or do I hold it out for 2 more weeks and wait for the new one :?: :o Life is full of choices and I tend to make the bad ones :?

So thanks Lord Chrusher, thanks Fugi :D :!:
