Oh, Michael! You’re killin’ me. I miss doing the Blogcasts, and I really wish I had the time and energy to make more episodes. But they were about a ten-hour-a-week commitment, and I need those ten hours to catch up with other projects that are terribly delayed. Plus, it got harder and harder to release new episodes to the standards we’d created for ourselves.

I suppose we could think of something to fill the void. I certainly should update this site a little bit, at least. And of course we need to put out the collecter’s edition on DVD with bonus content and director commentary! All in time.

As for women: we’ve been dating off and on for years but we intentionally kept a lot of that stuff off the Blogcast. Kyle’s Masako saga got quite a bit of coverage in Season One, actually… and he’s referenced women in my life too (often under a cryptic code-name or alias), but this is an area where I prefer to keep the mystery going. Besides, it’s awkward when you split up during the lag-time between an episode’s filming and its airing.

Thanks for the support.

Ok,thats it!!

it has been far to long,and as such i hereby demand you entertain us!!
you can’t just invite us, your faithful fans, into your life to entertain,teach,and even share parts of your lives with us.to get us hooked on pop’s wise words or kyle’s “I’ll attack this world with humor” bravado or your mothers voice of reasoning, only to go away!!!

ok ok..so i might have over reacted a little.
but c’mon..i miss my 7 to 10 min episodes.
i miss the music i miss seeing all you individuals coming together as a group.
granted i could look at my own fam,but 1 we are dutch,2 the only tone we can keep is being tone deaf and the only instrument we can play is each others skulls.

now that being said,i know your all busy with other things that demand your time and focus.i can respect that.
but i also know that when aim to shoot 5 min worth..you have 50 min of footage to pick from…why not show us a little “behind the screen” of what’s keeping you so busy.as a sort of…filler.

and on a personal note…what is up with the women..i mean we see you 2 ( kyle and luke) with women every now and then but never something steady..or even a introduction….what gives?

all jokes aside,
i hope to see more of you soon.
and i hope that reading this message at least got a chuckle.

seasons greetings and best wishes from all they across the ocean from the Netherlands.

I am so pleased to see that you guys LOVE Bare Feet as I do! I have been a 24/7 Barefooter for 33 years since I was 16 years old, and I love the lifestyle. My Feet are super Tough, and Thickly Calloused, but look really masculine and healthy. They’re also pitch Black on the bottoms,probably like all of your Bare Feet are. if you guys have any questions about my Barefooting, please feel free to email me at; barefootbob@barefooted.com

Thanks for the reply Luke.I do hope you guys do some more Blogcasts.I really enjoyed those and I am looking forward to trying those Cinn a Bons this Christmas also.I have recorded the recipe yall did.You guys became like pals that I looked forward to spending time with every week so I’ll miss you guys.BTW Comet Elinin is a comet that will be closest to earth on the 16th of this month and is suspected of all sorts of calamity.Its supposedly tied in to the Hopi Indian legends and the Mayans stories of a blue followed by a red star in the heavens that swing thru our galaxy ever 26,000 years or so and causes great changes in our planet.Elinin is the blue(caused by its chemical makeup)and the red star is called Nibiru.This is supposedly why the Mayan calendar ends in 2012 as thats the time period thats its due.I dont know why Im telling you all this…..I dont buy it but it sure is a hot topic.Well you take care my friend and I’ll see you around like a donut!:)

Comet who? We put the Blogcast on ice while we focus more on other projects in our lives, like the ToneWay Project and Bachido and such. We will be back at some point with a China Blogcast (we have even more footage from China then we do from Japan!), and I will be putting out a video of my experiences teaching at a music camp in Alaska (a heartwarming story). Other than that, we’re playing it by ear. Oh, and there will be a collector’s DVD at some point…

Speaking of collectors… Paul, thanks for the kind words. It’s only on YouTube, though. There are actually two other live recordings on our channel of that song; one at the Abbey and one at GOF. Search our abbottfamily channel and you’ll find ‘em. You’re welcome to extract the audio from the video for your collection if you like.

Gentlemen!
I am a musical hostorian/collector. I was just recently researching “Oh Death!” when I came upon your 2008 posting. It is possibly the most unique variation of the tune I’ve come across. May I add that I found it to be a very professional presentation.
Is it possible that you have recorded it? Can it be purchased for my collection?

Well, somebody noticed! Yeah, we were a week late with this one. Next one’s going to be a week early to compensate.

That said, going forward we’re probably going to slow way down on the Blogcast. Too much going on in our lives these days. We’ll probably move to an irregular schedule… and get to work on the collector’s edition DVD.
