@BandhappyTube excellent, just the answer I was hoping for, thank you good sir!

[drmoshie]

Really well done and well thought out. By musicians for musicians, and it's so obviously that rather than some moneymaking scheme. Good job

[CMNDandCTRL]

This looks so easy to use and simple, this is an amazing idea!

@BandhappyTube As a student, and thanks for the info!
I used to dream and think about a website likes this but never imagined it possible.Thanks for making it so!

[xaqshana]

what an awesome idea for a website.
words cannot describe how keen I am.
now to get a credit card..

@BandhappyTube thanks for the quick answer. I've seen that testing option in the video but I think it should be available at any time, regardless if you've booked a lesson or not. If you purchased a lesson with Matt and realize 10 minutes prior to the start that your mic is broken, it will be hard to find a replacement in time. Just my 2 cents ;) Thumbs up for everything else though!

I've dreamed of a site like this for so long. Good job Matt!

[Joeyplaysguitar]

Wow, this is the best idea I've heard in a long time.

@BandhappyTube thats really cool i like that feature alot.

[MATTPERIPHERY]

@Mascot105 Hey Mascot, definitely a valid concern, but i assure you, you'll have a very productive experience if you use the site. The nature of the online lessons are way more focused, there are less distractions, and its a very sound system. As long as you have a good connection, I'm sure you'd dig it. Hope to see you on there!

[JoshKikta]

The end of this video is so awesome :3

[BandhappyTube]

@xjohnxwaynex Absolutely - that feature is already in the pipeline, amongst a ton of other awesome ones! Remember, this is Bandhappy 1.0 - lots more awesome stuff to come!

[BandhappyTube]

@ToueTu When you buy the lesson, it is YOUR lesson, one-on-one LIVE with your teacher. We'll have group lessons in the near future, but for now, it's great to connect one-on-one!

[BandhappyTube]

@ToueTu Prices are set by each teacher - they set their own rates. $40-$70 are typical hourly rates though for music lessons... You'll be able to take 30 min lessons too for less though. Thanks!

[BandhappyTube]

@Remergence Registration begins tomorrow, we'll begin activating students on Monday, January 9th!

[FakeMessiah]

@HELLPERN Thanks for the info man, shall definitely look a hitting you up on there! Looking forward to it :)

[BandhappyTube]

@delopizza - even if someone finds a clever way to re-record and share the lesson, thats great free promotion for the teacher! It will inspire other students to want to have that same live, one-on-one experience as well!

[BandhappyTube]

@xjohnxwaynex - great points! 15 minutes prior to all ONLINE lessons you'll be able to log into your chat room and test your connection, camera, and microphone. We provide instructions for doing this on all purchased ONLINE lesson pages. We have an extensive and easy to understand video chat tutorial section in case you have any problems as well!

[BandhappyTube]

@andylunt2 They automatically set to YOUR personal time zone - so if you're in NZ and your teacher is in the US, your lesson time will be appropriate for your time zone, corresponding to your teacher's time zone.
