What is said

The parts of the video and what is said in each (★ — how much it matters to the video).

00:00:00 — Intro: something more entertaining than Hank; seeing a breakdance crew practise; credits for the song and thanks to the crew and Will

  • ★★★ Hank recently went to watch a breakdancing crew practise, which he calls possibly the most entertaining thing he has seen outside YouTube since Grand Rapids, Michigan. (hedged) — 00:00:00 · YouTube
  • ★★ Hank shows the crew to the tune of '21 Jump Street', not the TV theme but a song about the show by DJ Wise and Red Cloud, courtesy of Syntax Records. — 00:00:29
  • ★★ Hank thanks Missoula's one and only breakdance crew, joking they'd be the best in town even among 10,000, and says it was a surprise to find breakdancing going on there. (playful) — 00:00:29 · Missoula, Montana
  • ★ Hank thanks a crew member for helping teach him to breakdance and inviting him to watch the crew. — 00:00:29

00:00:59 — Breakdancing footage set to the song '21 Jump Street'

00:02:36 — End of song; Chicago update: pre-register because the library may be too small; Hank's Wizard Rock show on August 8; sign-off

  • ★★★ Worried the Chicago library where they will speak lacks space, Hank asks people to pre-register via the sidebar, though he doesn't know if it guarantees anything. (hedged) — 00:02:36 · Chicago (city)
  • ★★ Hank tells viewers not to worry if too many people come to Chicago: 'we're going to figure something out. I promise.' — 00:02:36 · Chicago (city)
  • ★★★ Hank will play in a Wizard Rock show around 10 p.m. on August 8 at a Chicago club (heard as 'Reggie's Room'); tickets are linked in the sidebar. — 00:02:36 · Chicago (city)
