I learned some stuff about Virg', what do you think about that bio Jeppe ?
PS : man, again, so happy he did not be hired for the Dream Theather gig, he's REALLY way too good for them, same for Thomas Lang.

Well... there are a few inaccuracies, which I'll likely comment on, over on YouTube, but A for intention! It seems a little AI-generated, which would account for some of the weirder factual errors.

Travis Orbin is true to the cause (J/K!) in a recent podcast:

Outside of it being rather unprecise at places (thanks for commenting over there, Rodge <3 ) I also find it to be little more
than a piggyback ride to clicks.

This is the description of the video. Not even a link to Virgil's channel. But flogging a load of shit (his merch will "change your life")

It's a little off for me. Maybe I am just in a negative head space these days, but... yeah.

Yeah I know what you mean Jeppe as you know Virgil so well.

It's not that click bait, but at the end the guy who did the video want the light on him, making money on Virgil's name in a way.

Yes, page 84 of this thread. You won't believe who was the first to comment on it then... ;)

Aaand here it is. Complex doesn't even begin to describe it. Some really cool parts along the way. (I don't particularly care for the visuals)
