How can this guy just be so insanely cool, how is that even allowed
- MF knows kung fu, tactical weapons and is a fucking musician? What else is he known to do?
  
  I usually talk about those things -as one day when I grow up imma do dat.
  
  What else ..
  
  This...

  He's also an actor!
  
  Motorcycles. That's what else
- Money and time and tragedy and a sense of purpose.
- I like his movies and his personality seems genuinely charismatic, but god I hate the creepy celebrity worship stuff. I mean, just why?
  
  Oh I get it, I totally do. But of all the celebrities who are actually worthy of praise, I can't think of anyone else off the top of my head who deserves it more.
  
  But I mean it's not like I worship Keanu, he's just cool.
"I heard the bassist of the famous band Dogstar is actually also a lesser known actor that starred in a few movies"
- Maybe but he is mostly known for his motorcycles
- I am pretty sure his movie career failed so hard he even had to act in a video game.
He's looking like a wild stallion.
- wyld stallyn, i think you mean
He looks like this is his only claim to fame. As if he really is just a hot bassist in a band.

He also looks fucking 25!
- no, that's Leonardo DiCaprio.
  
  wait, I may have misunderstood your last line.
Got to ask: is Dogstar actually any good?
- You can decide that only for yourself so give it a go. Personally, I would categorize it as inoffensive radio friendly alternative rock.
  
  I mean, it's what you'd expect from older gen X-ers, which isn't a bad thing. That one song sounds a lot like R.E.M., and the more popular tracks on the channel have a real post-punk vibe overall. The older stuff up there reminds me of... Tom Petty? Overall, easy listening rock.
  
  Edit: I don't know what I expected. Freakin' Keanu is in the band. Of course it's wholesome.
  
  That's exactly what it is. I'm not sure who's jam it is, but it's hard to like, hate it.

- They're no 30 odd foot of grunt....
  
  But for a band that has an a list celebrity in it, they're pretty good.
Keanu is bassed af
Fender Precision American Vintage II 1954 custom painted, I believe.
- It's beautiful!
Wtf cares about the bassist?
- I mean... he's a pretty good motorcycle mechanic, too.
- Seriously, what's next? We're going to talk about the keyboardist?
I'm glad he got rid of the John Wick hair.
- I never understood why john wick of all character needed that hair .
We gotta make sure he doesn't get his hands on fissile material...
- Nono. The opposite. We gotta do the opposite
  
  What's the real world version of Arasaka Tower?
“A thing of beauty will never fade away” said Kerry Eurodyne, of Keanu Reeves
- I don't care what Kerry says Pon Pon Shit is a jam
Ted Theodore Logan continues to be excellent.
I hear he was in a couple of movies as well.
The guy from the meme?
- He's in multiple memes even, the legend.
"The band's called Dogstar ... because we're Sirius."
Johnny!!!
- Mnemonic or Silverhand?
  
  yes
Hey, didn't know the founder of ARCH motorcycles was also a musician.
- I ride Arch, btw
  
  I wish I had a clever Linux joke response.
  
  But, no joke, what is it like to ride one? I imagine them somewhere between smooth comfort and speed demons.
- Unfortunately he's also a liar who frequently pretends to be other (usually fictional) people.
Link to their latest album
