First of all I haven't posted my reactions to the Wooden Steel Christmas Special and Improv Show, they went amazing and I couldnt have asked them to go any better! The Christmas special was awesome, TTT was great and there was a great turnout for the webshow...if you havent seen it yet check it out in our blog at www.myspace.com/woodensteel. The Improv Show also went perfect, we had a great amount of awesome Improvers, and the turnout was amazing, well around 100 people coming from ALL AROUND The state of Florida! I couldn't have been happier!
So yep, I'm in NYC right now. I'm here until Sunday and it's been great. Sooo many people here right now due to the New Years bash that will be taking place, and it can get kind of exhausting. I went on the NBC Studio Tour Today, I've taken it before on a past trip and I never get sick of it. I love seeing all the studios, and my future home of the SNL Studio ;) Conan comes back Jan 2nd with NO WRITERS, he's going to have to wing the whole show off the top of his head, I honestly can't wait to see how that turns out, it could totally change his show in either a good or a bad way.
After the New Years I have SOOOO Much going on...Working on some big projects out of big places, going to do a music video with some of my friends, going to start on the Wooden Steel DVD, and film some new awesome Comedy Sketches. ALOT of work but it's going to be great!
Well until next time, I'm freezing my balls off up here in New York, I'll try to update this again while I'm up here...thanks for reading :)

Vegas...whew! It's a crazy town, I don't know if it's a town that I'd want to visit often, but deff a town worth visiting once in your life. The lights and the buildings are amazing, the casinos SUCK! I lost a lot of money but the way I look at it is you never really make much money going on a vacation.
We got into Vegas on Monday, the Highlight of Monday was an AWESOME Buffet that almost made me sick because I ate soooo much. There's literally buffets everywhere in Vegas. Then I went into the Luxor to buy a Criss Angel shirt for one of my buddies, and literally 5 minutes later, Criss Angel walks in. It was really rad to get to see him in person, I snapped a couple pictures, the best I could and you can check them out on my MySpace Click Here. I also bought a really rad necklace on Monday.
The rest of the days were spent seeing things that you don't usually get to see in weather that was ridiculously tooooo cold. It was like 40 Degrees during the day...CRAZY!
We saw The Carrot Top Show Wednesday Night, it was surprisingly very funny...he's a good comedian.
So overall Vegas was a really fun trip, I'm sure there's things I've missed out on but yea...
This Thursday Night is our Webshow Christmas Special, it's going to be AWESOME. THe band "Terra Terra Terra" is coming to play on the show for free, which is really rad for them. If you'd like to watch it check it out Live at 10pm EST - 7pm PST at www.woodensteel.tv/liveshow.html
This Friday Night is another Improv Comedy Show, it's going to be at the Toy World Cafe in Lake Wales, FL. 205 Park Ave. It's going to start at 8PM and admission is free, so come down for a really rad time!
I have so many Christmas gifts left to get, and not much money...time to be resourceful :)
It's insane to think Christmas is only 6 DAYS AWAY!
I want the writers strike to end BAD!
We will start filming some new sketches, and MUSIC VIDEOS after Christmas...as well as releasing our much anticipated "Best of" DVD with loads of behind the scenes footage and outtakes and such...so keep a lookout for that!
Also after Christmas I plan to take some classes at the SAK Comedy Lab in Orlando, which reminds me I need to make a phone call.
Life is great right now, hope everyone else has Happy Holiday!
Be excellent to each other,
Shane
That's right I'm home from Vegas, and I have so much to tell you guys but I honestly have no time right now to put it all down...I'm going to the coast for the night so when I get back in town tomorrow evening I plan on doing a HUGE blog on my whole trip. A lot of cool things happened, and I can't wait to tell you guys...UNTIL THEN!
Be excellent to each other,
Shane
That's right, Shane Hartline is going to Las Vegas! I will be over there from Dec 10th-14th!!! I'm going with my dad because he has some business classes. I've never been to Vegas and I'm truly looking forward to it. Hopefully I'll come back with a new car from a quarter slot!
No webshow next week though, bummer but will just make the Dec 20th Christmas Special that much better :)
Life is great right now
I may get on Webcam from time to time via Stickam in Vegas, that's only if I pack a cam...we'll see what happens, but keep a lookout at www.woodensteel.tv/liveshow.html
Our new DVD is gonna rock your socks.
Go see "The Mist", freakin awesome.
Superbad is on DVD, buy it...
I can't wait for the writers strike to end, I want new episodes of SNL!

I went to the Black in the Mind concert last night, great time. I saw a lot of people I knew, my buddy Josh Van Dykes band was there, and the band I did a music video in the past The Love Affair was there. If you've never seen the video I did for them about a year ago CLICK HERE
After Christmas at some point I am going to finally be producing a Music video for Black in the Mind. The guys and I have a lot of great ideas, so get ready for that! Check out Black in the Mind HERE
Our latest sketch "Apples n Bananas" I have been told is one of our funniest videos yet! If you haven't checked it out yet, PLEASE DO HERE
I need to finish Christmas Shopping.
I took a Drivers Course today because I got a speeding ticket about 3 weeks ago, 4 hours of sitting through a lecture on driving...blah. The teacher was a cool so it made it a little less miserable.
December 20th is our Wooden Steel Live "Christmas Special". We have a lot of exciting awesome stuff planned for that episode. And yes I used both the words exciting and awesome, it's gonna be worth that. It's going to be a 2 hour webisode, Santa Clause will be on hand the whole time to answer your Skype Calls, and there just might be a band to perform live...a well known band as well!
Also, December 21st is our next Improv Comedy Show. If you haven't been to one of these yet, you should really check them out they are loads of fun. They are at the Toy World Cafe in Lake Wales, 205 Park Ave. It's all gonna start around 8PM, then afterwards I plan to have a DVD Release party for our Best of DVD if it's completed in Time...which would be fun.
Speaking of our DVD, we need a cool name for it!
