First draft, unexplored ideas for content for the Youtube channel. Those deemed to be of a high enough quality will be further researched and fleshed out into high quality content.
- ‘Karma Farmer’ – Similarly to the narrative set-up of TV show ‘My Name Is Earl’ a recurring segment that at it’s base is, through music, the dogs, or otherwise, seeking to do unsolicited ‘good deeds’ under the guise of ‘farming karma’ as I seek to make amends for the myriad misdeeds I’ve been responsible for through the selfishness of my addiction. Examples being ; 1) Have an evening performing songs, contemporary with their youth, for OAP’s in a residential home, whilst they enjoy the company of the dogs. 2) Singing Telegram’ – ‘a message that is delivered by an artist in a musical form’ I could perform a surprise rendition of, for example, a cancer patient who is in remission, special song in celebration of them making it through treatment.
- ‘We’re All Going On A Summer Holiday’ – During the six week school summer holiday, Candice and the kids could join us through a child orientated road trip through France. As the young girls experience another ‘culture’ and language for the first time it would undoubtedly be entertaining for both ourselves and the YT viewership – Seeing them try ridiculously smelly French cheese etc. Relevant Link – 10 fantastic things to do in France with kids – The Family Voyage
- ‘Father & Son’ – Seek to arrange a beautiful rendition of one of Darrens song and record such with his father Tommy playing piano on his sons song. Tom, from my own experience seeing him play in the aftermath of Darren’s death, is a highly adept ‘pop pianist’ and it would make for a wonderful recording, and potentially highly emotional and rewarding experience for all involved. Maybe a live performance could be arranged at, off the top of my head, some sort of fundraising event for sufferers of addiction.
- ‘Get Your Rocks Off’ – Weave a comedic, recurring theme around Blackos intermittent bouts of frenzied ‘humping’ (‘or colloquially, amongst my girls and I, and somewhat more family friendly ‘flumping’) both the living, strangers, other, primarily male dogs and the inanimate, cabbage patch dolls and rocking horse alike. Then document the eventual pay-off, with me assisting him in his desire to fornicate by way of the highly curious reality that are ‘Doggy Dating Apps’ Relevant Link – The 5 Best Dating Sites for Dog Lovers | The Dog People by Rover.com
- ‘I Wanna Know What Love Is’ – Document the process of starting and marketing a duo (Candice & I, unless she decides otherwise) that play acoustically at/outside of where actual wedding ceremonies take place ; such as the church/registry office playing a small number of specified songs and specified moments. For example ; ‘Islands In The Stream’ whilst the car with the bridal party arrives or ‘I Love You Baby’ immediately after the church service as the wedding goers throw confetti.
