I dig you guys very merch.

To be honest, I am ALWAYS nervous posting stuff like that, that's why I very very rarely do it, especially on Facebook and to 170,000+ people. I think the main reason why I don't like posting that stuff is because I am overly-sensitive to people possibly thinking I'm in this for the cash. Which isn't the case, at all or even close :) It has ALWAYS been this struggle inside me, because I need to eat and I need to have a roof over my head, but I absolutely HATE "asking" for money.
So, I just want to say that I appreciate your support. And if you buy a shirt or a hoodie or a DVD or a lesson from the website, then I appreciate that very very VERY much also. And if you don't buy any merch.. that's totally ok too, I still dig you. I never want this to be a guilt trip and I never want this to be all business. I love music and sincerity and passion with all my heart and I have a feeling you do too, that's why you're here.
So THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE SUPPORT, whether with youtube views, or prayers, or spreading the word, or with real-world money that help me pay my rent and buy food. It means way more to me that I can ever express in a few paragraphs of text.
Much love! ~c

…i am chinese.
yow cobus……. when will you post other upcoming videos?
and do you have fund problems?
Hi cobus, just want to say that you are a great drummer, and if not to much to ask, when will you do more live streams? Be cool to see, lol, Keep rocking btw. Peace!
hi cobus What is your song that you prefer to play ?
Cobus, nobody thinks that you are in this for the money! Just watching your videos and reading your blogs tell us that much about yourself. Everyone that subscribes to your stuff, buys your merch and watches your vids does that because you are an insane drummer and an even more insane person.
You have great integrity C, so hats of to you buddy! You’ve proved yourself as a stand up guy so I’m sure the odd plug for a T-shirt or download lesson won’t damage your reputation.
Best of luck in everything you decide to pursue! ;-)
awww, we understand you, cobus! of course you have to eat and pay the rent and all for you to be able to produce more drum covers. i support you all the way!
-much love from the philippines! (hope you could visit us soon)
