Youtube Gathering: Melbourne Australia ~ January 2011

It looks like quite the tournout for the Youtube Gathering in Melbourne on January 22, 2011 as seen in the following video by AngryAussie. A while back Kimmi Smiles posted a video saying that there would be a gathering and that popular youtuber Dave Days would be flying in from the U.S. Kimmi and Dave have done several collab videos and it looks like Melbourne certainly welcomed him to the city.



Lots of people showed up and I think I recognized Louna Maroun (hard to miss with the flaming red hair) among others. Frezned was also on hand, but it looks like Dave was a big draw for many.

Melbourne Youtube Gathering Saturday January 22nd

I always try to give a shout out when I hear about a Youtube gathering (even those I can't attend) and there's going to be one in Melbourne, Australia on January 22nd, 2011 from 12pm to 3pm. kimmitalks (aka KimmiSmiles) just posted this video and I thought I should alert my readers in Australia (yes I do have readers, plural lol, in Australia) - actually the Aussies make up a sizable chunk of my viewership. I get read by Americans, Canadians, UK, and then the Aussies who are a little under-represented on this blog which I plan to remedy. But I'm off topic. Watch this video by Kimmi:



It looks like DaveDays will be showing up and he and Kimmi have collaborated for several videos.

According to the info Kimmi provided on her video, the gathering will be on the 22nd at "Federation Square, meet in front of the Giant Screen/Stage". I really wish I could go to this mainly because I've never had the opportunity to go to Australia and I think everyone should visit Australia at least once. Also I'd to get away from the snow and ice (I live in Canada and it is the dead of winter). So I guess I'll have to just have my envy to keep me warm while Dave, Kimmi and the other lucky youtubers bask in the sun.

DaveDays Sings Olive You On BlogTV

LOL, davedays and Sammah singing Olive You on BlogTV. This is just a short video clip.


olive you - Broadcast your self LIVE

Dave of course is referring to Kimmi Smiles who sang on the video with him (see this post: DaveDays ~ Olive You With Kimmi Smiles) but with Sammah taking Kimmi's part here.

If you want to check out some more clips of Dave on BlogTV, you can go to Dave's BlogTV channel to watch some of his other clips, but if you go there and also subscribe to his channel, you can get updates of when he has posted stuff and get notification of when he is "on the air" which is fairly frequently.

And if you want to pick up the song on iTunes, (um, the original version with Kimmi, not the one with Sammah, although if enough people demand a copy of this one, I'm sure Dave will put it on iTunes or his own website) go to Olive You to download it from iTunes.

DaveDays ~ "Turn Off The Lights" Song For Ecomagination Challenge

It seems that DaveDays is coming out with new songs just about every other week! Actually his most recent video was released about 2 weeks ago, see my post about What Does It Take.



And yes, that was Kimmi (last seen in Dave's Olive You video) and Sammah of "Do It Float?" fame hidin' out in the shower. Actually, Dave credits Sammah and Cyr for doing the filming.

This looks like it may be part of the Ecomagination Challenge and you have to like Dave's style: "yeah, we gotta turn the lights off baby. Don't you wanna save the environment?"

And you can pick up the newest DaveDays song (and his others too) over at davedays/itunes (actually Dave's giving this one away for FREE and that link takes you to his website).

Kimmi Smiles With An Update & Her Team Beard Supernote

Have to admit that I think kimmitalks (or Kimmi Smiles) is just the cutest. She seems genuinely happy to be making YouTube videos. Take a quick look at the following:



It does sound like she is going to be busy for the next little while and will have to space out her future videos because of school and that's okay. Nothing wrong with concentrating on doing well in school. When she does post the video about surviving the upcoming zombie apocalypse, I'll be sure to include it here too.

I had thought that I was already subbed to her YouTube channel but found out I wasn't (fixed that just now) but I was following her on Twitter (she's at KimmiSmiles on Twitter). I started following her there after I posted about her & davedays on BlogTV in July, but somehow I didn't sub to her channel - but like I said - fixed now.

And in case you somehow missed it, Kimmi and Dave made a great video called Olive You about a month ago and available at iTunes (go buy it now - RIGHT NOW!)

Also, it looks like Kimmi took the Supernote challenge and joined Team Beard (and no, she's not required to grow a beard to be a member of Wheezy Waiter's Supernote team). Her video with her Supernote is shown below.



And on a personal note to Kimmi (if she ever reads this), don't worry so much, your subs will still be here when you can start posting again after your exams and stuff. Just worry about doing well at university because that's what's important.

DaveDays ~ Olive You With Kimmi Smiles

Just in case you haven't checked out the latest song from DaveDays here it is.

It's called Olive You (that's a link to it on iTunes) and features lovely ms Kimmi Smiles (aka KimmiTalks).

One question: Has Dave forsaken a certain Mylie Cyrus for the pretty Australian singer? Probably not - Dave seems to have that smitten look whenever he's thinking about Mylie.

I liked the parts where you see Kimmi getting a piggy-back ride from Dave and then later you see him getting one too. Had to laugh at that. So far this video has already received over a million views on Youtube, so a big congrats on that for Dave & Kimmi. Here's hoping the song does very well.

And if you are unfamiliar with DaveDays' music (what? how? why?) you can also get it on Amazon: DaveDays MP3.

You Missed Out On Dave Days & KimmiTalks On BlogTV Last Night

I don't usually going on BlogTV.com very much, but I did really early this morning after DaveDays tweeted that he was going to be on the website and would be playing a new song. He had a pretty girl beside him (no surprise there) but I didn't recognize her. She said her name was Kimmi and that she was from Australia. I did a quick check on Youtube and found her pretty quickly. She is kimmitalks and she has been on YouTube for just over a year and has 27 videos to date. Unfortunately the broadcast probably won't be showing up in Dave's archives for his account at blogtv.com/people/davedays because of the song he and Kimmi listened to, but you might want to sub to his BlogTV channel anyway so you won't miss this the next time he has a broadcast. Makes sense right?

Kimmi has 5,344 subscribers as of today and a bunch of those subbed because of the BlogTV appearance. Basically there was a lot of tomfoolery and a lamp was broken - for the record DaveDays said "FUDGE" and didn't swear. Of course everyone in chat was demanding to know if Kimmi and Dave were now "a thing", but that was quashed and Dave reaffirmed his undying love for some chick named Miley something.

Also, Ray William Johnson crashed the party and brought a bunch of his people into the chat after tweeting about the BlogTV thing on Twitter and apparently also on Facebook. There were at least 600-700 people in there to hear Dave's new song.

Kimmi danced and DaveDays interrupted occasionally to comment on the song "not quite being completed" and sternly telling viewers that had better not be recording it. It was actually quite an animated show that moved between several of the rooms presumably at Dave's apartment. He did use one of my comments at one point, holding just a cardboard head of Miley Cyrus. I commented "Miley, you look like you've lost weight!" because Dave asked for jokes. Well I thought it was funny lol.

Don't know why Kimmi was in the USA or how DaveDays corralled her for this broadcast, but she was sweet and pretty too. I'm guessing she was there partially for VidCon because of the pictures on her DailyBooth. She can also be followed on Twitter @kimmi_smiles. She has just over 1,000 followers on Twitter and was kind enough to tweet me a reply. DaveDays will be dropping his new song in the relatively near future and will have the video accompanying it on YouTube. Also, you can download The Dave Days Show from Amazon (for about $8.99 I believe).

This just in! Check out DaveDays and Kimmitalks new song! DaveDays ~ Olive You With Kimmi Smiles.
