00:00Vegas, you know, it's home for me.

00:08Just feels warm, it's magical.

00:10And for the bands, this is where we started, this is where we spent hours upon hours upon

00:14hours practicing.

00:16It's where we grew up, you know, as a band.

00:19We went to the hotels and just kind of begged them and said, you know, give us a chance

00:27to, you know, play a little bit.

00:29Eventually, we were seeing that people really reacted well to this.

00:32And then we started to branch out, we played in California, Utah a lot, Arizona, and kind

00:37of the West Coast circuit.

00:38I remember arriving to shows and thinking, man, you know, nobody's here, this is going

00:42to be a terrible show.

00:43And somehow it ended up, you know, being more than last, and that just kept happening.

00:47And that really drove the band, I think.

00:51I don't know if we would have been together this long if we hadn't seen a reaction.

00:56It's time to begin, isn't it?

00:58I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was.

01:07Now that you understand that I'm never changing who I am.

01:14You know, I've done music my whole life, and I knew I wanted to start a band a little

01:32over three years ago.

01:33I met Wayne.

01:34He had just graduated from Berkeley.

01:36He was the most talented musician that I'd ever met.

01:40We were like...

01:48We just had a great musical bond and friendship, you know, really quick.

01:52The reason we work well together is because of our differences as much as our similarities.

01:58Me being the perfectionist and probably the over-analytical one, and him being the more

02:02spur-of-the-moment, like, visionary kind of guy.

02:04He's very in the moment.

02:10Better tell them what they hear, cause they just may run away from you.

02:16You'll never know what went well, then again it just depends on how long your time is left

02:24with you.

02:26Wayne said, this bass player is really incredible, this drummer is really incredible, you know,

02:31let's call him up.

02:32Ben dropped out of school, the semester left, and moved to Las Vegas on a whim, as well

02:36as Daniel, you know, dropped everything, moved to Vegas.

02:39I'm on top of the world, I'm on top of the world, been waiting on this for a while now,

02:47paying my dues to the dirt.

02:49I've been waiting to start it, been holding it in for a while now, taking with me if I

02:55can, been dreaming of this since a child, I'm on top of the world.

03:01You know, getting to this point where we're finishing up our first album, I don't know,

03:06it does kind of feel like we are, you know, about to open a whole new chapter.

03:12You know, there's a lot of pressure on the guys, for sure.

03:19I'm feeling really excited for the next little bit of time.

03:23It just seems to be moving frightfully fast, it's a little overwhelming, but it's great.

03:29As a band, you really only get to do your first album once, you know, as silly as that

03:33sounds, and it lives on with you forever, and everybody knows your first album, you

03:37define their sound based off that album.

03:40That's why we have released EPs to this point, because it hadn't felt like we'd arrived at

03:46a place where we knew what we were as a band.

03:48I've never been, you know, more sure of any decision that we've made as a band, that now

03:54is the time.
