00:00What up, it's Dead Poets Society, and once again, we're looking at the van.
00:14This is our third episode with you guys.
00:19First time was a minivan, second time was a regular van.
00:22Now we're in this fucking bitch right here, and we got the Bug Death in the front.
00:28And we're going to take you inside and you're going to look at the 70s sex rug.
00:32Okay, so this is the front seat here.
00:35Will, me, and our sound guy Dex usually do all the driving.
00:40And I got my pillow up here, and then I got this.
00:47This might be the best invention ever in human history.
00:56So it just clips on right here, and then you can just fucking put your phone right
01:02there.
01:03Not get even closer.
01:04You can watch videos.
01:05Get closer.
01:06Oh, you want to get closer?
01:07Yeah.
01:08Check this shit out.
01:09Boom, I can put it right up to my fucking eyeballs.
01:10Here we go.
01:14And that's it.
01:16That's the front right there.
01:20Sometimes fans will bring us, there's a woman actually coming tonight, her name is Tammy.
01:24She'll get us like care packages before our tour, and she buys us like hundreds and hundreds
01:33of dollars worth of protein bars.
01:35And so if you look carefully, you'll see scattered throughout the car is just carcasses of random
01:42protein bars everywhere, because we don't clean our van ever.
01:47And yeah.
01:48Get some underwear down there, get that, there we go.
01:54I mean, usually the mornings, like we swap driving shifts, so these bunks will shift.
02:00What do we got up here normally?
02:04We got a charging system that Jack brought.
02:08Jack's got some creatine.
02:09We got a lot of miscellaneous floaters that just kind of like, that just happened.
02:15We got batteries.
02:16I don't know, so I have this cup that I haven't used once.
02:19No, no, no, show them what you got.
02:22Fuck yeah.
02:23So we got this here.
02:24This is essential for every tour.
02:26It's just a giant thing of mayonnaise, that looks so gross.
02:30Yeah, but I consume a disturbing amount of mayonnaise, which I need to stop doing because
02:38it's making me fat, but that's there.
02:42This is dog shit though.
02:44Usually if the venue provides like some Hellmann's or something, I'll usually take that.
02:49Always take that.
02:50Do we have anything else of interest in here?
02:53Oh, these picks.
02:55Stop fucking making these picks.
02:56Jazz picks, why do they exist?
03:00Don't do that.
03:01So when we got this van, we got it in advance from our label to put down for a van, and
03:09my roommate found this one, and somebody had already pre-fabricated the inside, I guess,
03:17since I added insulation and a recessed fan, and at first it was just this bench seat,
03:23and then it was just open here, and this folds down into a bed, but this table and these
03:28two chairs weren't here, and so what we did to make it more comfortable was this bean
03:33bag right here, we put this in, and this was originally in the corner back here, and then
03:38I bought a seatbelt on Amazon, and I tied it to the bottom of this chair right here,
03:45so that the person in the bean bag could use the seatbelt.
03:48Now, in a crash, yeah, Dylan, so in a crash, they're not going to survive.
03:54They're going to die, 100%.
03:56But at least their body won't fly around the van and kill other people, and that was my
04:02logic behind it.
04:03And it gives them peace of mind while we're driving.
04:05Right, exactly.
04:06It makes them feel safe.
04:09So for this door, we added these two seats and this table here, because when we were
04:13in Europe, we had a van that had a table in it, and it was super useful for our guitarist
04:18who does like composing, trailer work, and stuff like that, and our photographer, he
04:23sits there, and he, you know, does the vlogs and figures out merch and shit like that,
04:30so great investment, putting these little babies in, and then got the cupholders, and
04:39yeah.
04:40I don't know how many elbows we got here.
04:41Yeah, we are.
04:42This is clean, by the way.
04:43This is post-cleaning.
04:44So, yeah, that's what mostly goes on back here.
04:45We got a little mattress topper down there.
04:46That never gets used.
04:47I think we used it like three times.
04:48I don't think anyone wants to use it.
04:49It's just covered in dirt.
04:50Yeah, it's very gross.
04:51And, like, banana peels.
04:52Yeah.
04:53But, yeah, it's actually kind of nice back here when you're like, just like, hanging
05:02out.
05:03So, we have this, we got this, like, 70s sex rug in here, which is, as you can tell, very
05:22gross right now, but we only wash it at the end of tours, and it keeps this, like, under
05:29here remotely clean, sort of.
05:31So, we got that, and I cut it up so that it fit around all the different shit in here,
05:36and then we got these coat racks up here, which, you know, actually are being used.
05:42I didn't think anybody really ever used them.
05:45I hung a suit up in here one time, and it was there for like four months, and that was
05:49it.
05:50But, yeah, you can see various things on our rider kind of scattered across the floor here,
05:59like peanut butter.
06:00Hey, we got some Coke over there, and then there's bananas underneath my backpack over
06:07there on the floor, and, yeah, so this back here kind of turns into, like, a little storage
06:14area.
06:15So, we got the remains of our little care package from Tammy, got more protein, more
06:22protein down here.
06:24So, I don't eat before shows.
06:27I just drink protein shakes, because if anything has, like, onions or garlic in it, like, completely
06:33fucks me up.
06:34So, I found that it's just safe to just stick the protein shakes, and, yeah, Will's got
06:41his little tote thing here.
06:43This was supposed to be a trash can, and it's never been used once, but, actually, there's
06:47a couple things in there.
06:48Yeah.
06:49It doesn't fit much trash.
06:50It doesn't.
06:52The amount of trash we produce compared to that thing.
06:55One gas station stop alone, man.
06:58Yeah.
06:59We stop at a lot of gas stations still.
07:02Yeah, shout out Loves.
07:04Shout out Loves.
07:05Yeah, so that's everything.
07:07We're on our Fission Tour right now.
07:09We just dropped an album January 26th, and we're about a third of the way through the
07:15U.S. run right now, so check it out.
07:18Come buy a ticket.
07:19The show's getting sweaty, very sweaty, and, yeah, that's it, that's it, but we're gonna
07:26get ready for the tour.
07:27As I said, I'm gonna close this door, and he and I are gonna make out, so I'll see you
07:30later.
