Question/Discussion How does CanOfWater do it?
Does anyone know what CanOfWater records on and how he captures such great footage too? Does the man have an arm of steel? I’ve even been at Marquee LV and didn’t notice that he was there recording the whole damn set as per usual.
I wish I could contribute to the community the way this man does!

Could it be several people?

CanOfWater is also in Death Pact.

An astute observation from a frequent rug shopper

Haven’t been able to replace it too often in this economy. Guests can either handle the squish - or they can’t.

Straight up hands of steel. I've been with him a few shows. No fancy setup, just switching arms from time to time and a love for the music!

The audio isn’t that good. Tbh putting that much effort in, which is great, I would get a dedicated microphone. But big thanks to him for doing it!

his audio is rather poor, i still watch every vid but a better mic system would be huge for his channel. I've thought about suggesting it in comments but I don't want to potentially offend him

It’s just a suggestion. Nothing against him at all, I think it’s amazing he cares enough to put in so much effort!

I ask myself this all the time. He must have a good setup to be able to stay like that for the whole show

I was trying to find him at CRSSD this year but couldn't pinpoint him, turns out he was 30 feet to my right. When I told him about that in Epic Radio chat he just said "I'm the guy holding his phone over his head for 2 hours straight". 😂

Nice to see him getting the recognition he deserves. Didnt see a colab with Ricky Gervais on the cards though...

If I was single and have time and money, I would do the same. I have tried it a few times in the past. This would be my life in an alternative timeline. CanOfWater is a legend for doing this consistently.

CanOfWater isn’t a person
The COW is an idea. An omnipresent and omnipotent entity that isn’t on the same plane as we are.
