We recently attended the Anime NYC convention and did a series of artist interviews for our YouTube Channel. Please enjoy the first installment.

It was exciting to have the Anime NYC Convention back to being a fully in-person event after the 2020 Pandemic Pause. In order to properly deliver some coolness about the event I secured the opening ceremonies for our YouTube Channel.

Hails and hellos my friends, I’m here once more to shine a spotlight on one of the networks where you can find some PiercingMetal activity that falls outside of the general content of the actual dotcom. I’m talking about the one and only YouTube and I’m here to say that our own “Official PiercingMetal Channel” on this network is ten years old effective today.
When I turn back the pages in our own website history, the site itself had only celebrated its own third anniversary a little over a week before since the sites birthday is 4/4/2005. So not only are we hitting 10 years of YouTubing, but the PiercingMetal outlet is on its “Lucky 13th” Year of online publishing. Of course, I’m not here to talk about that but if you are interested just click HERE for that article. Suffice it to say when I created my account on YouTube for PiercingMetal use back on this day, I wouldn’t get around to even posting on it until early 2011 which was almost three full years later. I regret this now and wish I had paid better attention to what could be done with this but one can’t cry over the spilt milk right. Back then I was seeing a lot of live music clips on the medium so I did one of those myself while sitting at the Gramercy Theatre enjoying a rousing set by the Nuclear Blast Records artist Eluveitie. It was a simple way to dive into this as I’d already wasted three years by doing nothing than pressing “create account”, but truth be told I wasn’t sure how I wanted the website to be portrayed here. Thinking back on it all I guess that didn’t run with it straight away because I didn’t want so many other things to take you away from the actual website. You might not realize this but when you are a publication the reps you deal with ask for traffic and numbers and site retention but honestly I don’t think a lot of them even know what all that stuff means. I come from IT and understand more deep technology than some others so I always have stats mentally up to do. That all said, below is the first-ever PiercingMetal YouTube Channel video; “Inis Mona” by Eluveitie. I used a little SONY point and shoot from the seated area at the Gramercy Theatre.
