Transcript

00:00Hello dude! Welcome in Caravan Palace tour bus. Please, come on. Hey, it is Zoe.

00:22Want a coffee? Me, I want a coffee, please. Okay, you can help yourself.

00:30So, I'm Charles. I'm a member of Caravan Palace. Here is Zoe. And you have Arno over there. You'll see him later.

00:38Yeah, he's working right now. And we are on tour in the U.S. for a month. Quite a big show. It's for 24 shows.

00:47And we are now... More than half of it. Tomorrow night in Chicago is going to be the 14th date of the show.

00:58Or today. Today, I think. Today is today. We can have a jet like forever. They're not mine.

01:05I mean, I know that because it's the shop we went to Minneapolis yesterday and we killed it because it's the best popcorn we had on tour.

01:12Like, every year we go there. And there's a joke around this because it's orange jelly sticks.

01:19And normally, everybody hates it. It's for old people. Yeah. But me, I love it. So, every time I can see orange jelly sticks, I buy it.

01:27Yeah, we killed the popcorn. And here is some souvenir I bought on the tour. It's for friends or family.

01:34I love goodies, actually. Every type of goodies. And with Jimi Hendrix's figurine, it's so nice.

01:43Charles Studio, when we record the albums, are full of these things.

01:47Yeah, I love it. Yeah, I have a lot.

01:49And this is from a fan and we're still looking for his name because... Look at this. It's a pin and you can put it on your shoulder. It's dope. We love it.

01:57So, we kind of make him travel and he's like the Amélie Poulain. It's something related to this.

02:07Actually, I don't know what she's talking about.

02:09But if you don't know the movie, you don't know what I'm talking about.

02:12Quite a long time ago.

02:13And we should talk about this, too, because it's today. How do you say? A ruffle? A ruffle? Yeah.

02:18Could we get scammed yesterday? No, two days ago, we were looking for a spare clarinet for the tour.

02:24And our sound engineer was somewhere and he said,

02:27Oh, I think I found a clarinet Leblanc Classic II.

02:30Which is a great brand of clarinet.

02:33It might be old. Maybe we have to fix it, but it's still okay. So, yeah, buy it.

02:37And he didn't pay attention. He didn't open the box. And actually, it's not a Leblanc at all.

02:42It's a plastic, like stupid, other brand one.

02:45And so we're like, wait, there's nothing we can do with that.

02:48So we decided with the merch girl, Viviane, to make a ruffle tonight.

02:53And to give the money to an art school from Chicago for kids.

02:59And yeah, and it's tonight. Make some promotion.

03:03It was first a scam that it became a great action.

03:06Yeah.

03:07So, no, we don't use it. But if it was working, actually,

03:10we could use it. But no, we're not.

03:13Yeah, of course. But I guess it's quite boring.

03:16It's quite boring stuff here. Oh, no.

03:19You have quite a lot of vodka. You have some wine.

03:22A lot of water. Yeah.

03:24Healthy people drink water. So, that's what we do.

03:27This is my ad box because it was quite a dream for me to have an ad.

03:32Do you want to see it?

03:33You should wear it. Do you want me to wear it?

03:36Yes, please.

03:37I just bought it in Dallas. So, it's a real Texan one.

03:44Look at this beauty.

03:52Yay!

03:53Excuse me. Where's your horse?

03:55Charlie one horse.

03:59Looks good, right?

04:00Yeah, we all have a box.

04:04This is funny.

04:05Or light engineer. He's a Dua Lipa fan.

04:07Yeah, he's a Dua Lipa fan.

04:08We get him this.

04:09We offer this candle.

04:11The Dua Lipa one.

04:13This is quite a mess, actually.

04:15And this is everyone's mess.

04:16So, I'm not sure everyone's going to be happy if they show.

04:22Not very interesting, actually.

04:23You have more in the back side.

04:26Oh.

04:27Don't have coffee.

04:28But it was from yesterday.

04:29First Avenue.

04:31They gave us a lot of merch.

04:33Thank you, First Avenue.

04:34And it was their birthday or anniversary.

04:36Like 55th?

04:3855th anniversary.

04:40Yeah, anniversary.

04:41Mostly socks and carrots.

04:44And beers.

04:46Beers.

04:48Wait, is there anything very interesting here?

04:51I don't think so.

04:52So, no.

04:54Yeah, this is probably the most boring thing you can find.

04:59But it's still good to have some vegetables sometimes.

05:02Oh, butter.

05:04French people, we have butter.

05:06I don't know.

05:07Ah, I guess vodka, yeah.

05:08Are you sure?

05:09Yeah, more vodka.

05:13Yeah.

05:14C'est ridicule.

05:17Okay.

05:18Still in my coffee.

05:19Actually, as you can see, they are all almost full.

05:23It's quite a quiet tour.

05:25We don't...

05:26Yeah, because it's a long one.

05:27And we need to do all the concerts.

05:29So, we don't party that much this tour.

05:32Food.

05:33We have every day.

05:34We have...

05:35Ham.

05:37Cheese.

05:38Actually, the very important thing is not here, because it's in the dressing room.

05:42We have a George Foreman...

05:43How do you call that?

05:44A toaster.

05:45A toaster, yeah.

05:46Yeah, we do this a lot.

05:47In France, you call this a croque monsieur.

05:49A toaster.

05:50You know, so we do...

05:51We do eat that a lot.

05:52Right?

05:54And...

05:55Fruits.

05:57Vegetables.

05:58And...

05:59And then...

06:00Actually, we are on tour in the US.

06:01We don't live here, so...

06:03When we want to go to lunch, it's better to go outside and to visit the city.

06:08We're just here for a couple hours, so...

06:11It's an important moment in a musician day to go out and...

06:15Yeah.

06:16And enjoy a restaurant.

06:17And then, in the rider, you have wine.

06:20Mostly red wine, I think.

06:22Yes.

06:23Red rider...

06:24And you do like Red Bull vodka, right?

06:26Yeah.

06:27So sometimes the Red Bull vodka.

06:29And the vodka we don't use for the drinks.

06:31I use it in the steamer to clean...

06:34To wash some outfit...

06:36Stage outfits that can't go in a washing machine.

06:38And we don't have time for...

06:40To let the clothing...

06:42Some places to clean it, so...

06:44Yeah.

06:45Vodka, steamer...

06:46And wow!

06:47Burning fresh.

06:48That was very fine.

06:50Throat coke.

06:51Yeah.

06:52And coffee.

06:53We drink a lot of coffee, actually.

06:54Yeah.

06:55We are coffee addict, totally.

06:56Yeah.

06:57Coffee and bread.

06:58Coffee and bread.

06:59Sounds like...

07:00Oh!

07:01Alcatraz food, right?

07:03Because we went there.

07:04Not all of us, but...

07:06Yeah, and Lucas bring this one from Alcatraz.

07:09So yeah, you don't have...

07:11In prison, you just have bread and water.

07:13Actually, it's quite common.

07:15Everything you've got here is...

07:17Everyday using, you have it...

07:20Everyone has it at home, so...

07:22Yeah, because actually we are boring, actually.

07:24That's what we try to say.

07:26It's very common.

07:27Oh yeah, I know they have cereals there.

07:30Yeah, they do mostly...

07:32Time, a lot.

07:33I think it's from Vivian or...

07:35Maybe Orsoni.

07:36I don't know.

07:37Yeah, they have a lot of secrets.

07:39Yeah, beer motifs.

07:41And some stuff.

07:42Orsoni engineer really like antiques...

07:45Antiques instruments and antique gears in music, so...

07:50I don't even know what is it.

07:52What is that?

07:53Ah, nobody knows.

07:55Yeah, looks good.

07:56I don't know if it's working, but it looks good.

07:59It looks good.

08:00Yeah.

08:01It's a microphone mixer.

08:02Old one.

08:03Oh, and it's a sticker a fan gave to us, like...

08:08We have a lot of stickers, but we don't know who's that person is.

08:11Again, there's no...

08:12Oh, yeah, you said...

08:13Oh, what about these?

08:14You should...

08:15Yeah, we have...

08:16Ah, yeah.

08:17Interesting.

08:18We have an addiction to this chocolate brain...

08:20Brand, sorry.

08:21Tony's.

08:22So this one is almost done.

08:24We had like 20 of them.

08:26Actually, it's not the American one.

08:28No, it's...

08:29We thought it was Belgium, and I think it's from...

08:31Netherlands.

08:32Netherlands.

08:33It's quite expensive and very addictive.

08:36Knock, knock.

08:37Just in case.

08:38No, he didn't.

08:39No.

08:40Are they clean?

08:41Yeah, looks clean.

08:42Yes, number one only.

08:43Definitely.

08:44Yeah, number one.

08:45And you can brush your teeth also.

08:46It's okay.

08:47Because you can't hear it.

08:48We don't get it.

08:49How can the trash be this big and the sink so small and so far?

08:54And yesterday, I caught Arno.

08:56I was like going to the bathroom and I'm like, I see Arno like this.

09:00I'm like, what are you doing?

09:01I'm brushing my teeth.

09:02I was like, no.

09:03You can't do that.

09:05We don't get it.

09:06We don't get it.

09:07If someone has an explanation, we would like to hear it.

09:11But wait, you didn't say anything about that.

09:13It's mine.

09:15I got that in an antique boutique like maybe 10 years ago on tour with Caravan Palace.

09:20I don't remember where exactly.

09:22And it's for, you know, you press.

09:24But it's very light.

09:25It's very convenient in a suitcase.

09:27And Tori is very generous with that.

09:29Yeah, I made orange juice.

09:30She's like, okay, I'm doing it.

09:33Which is quite boring.

09:34You have to cut it.

09:35You have to press it.

09:36I'm okay.

09:37And also, yes, lemon.

09:39It can work for a throat.

09:42But it's my...

09:45The songs say diamonds are the girl's best friend.

09:48I think it's this.

09:50And we don't have the word in English actually.

09:52I don't know yet.

09:53Presagrum.

09:54Presagrum.

09:55Squeezer?

09:56No, reducer.

09:57But a very antique one.

09:59Let's go.

10:01I'm going to remove my head.

10:03Because of space.

10:04No ghosts.

10:05That's okay.

10:06Nobody is sleeping for now.

10:09Oops.

10:10Oops.

10:11Bienvenue chez vous, Charles Delaparte.

10:14Is there someone who sleeps here?

10:15No.

10:16No one is sleeping.

10:17So me, I'm at the...

10:19At the bottom.

10:20At the bottom, yeah.

10:21Because I guess I never experienced to sleep in the highest level.

10:25But I guess I'm quite afraid of falling.

10:28So I'm good on the ground.

10:31So we are touring for 50 years now.

10:34And I never change.

10:36A blanket.

10:37Always the same.

10:38On the ground.

10:39They say that it moves less.

10:42But I never try.

10:43Because I'm in the middle.

10:45Because I'm short.

10:46So if I have to go like this every night.

10:49And when I go to the bathroom.

10:50I could break my leg.

10:51And I'm like, no.

10:53So yeah.

10:54Middle.

10:55It's convenient.

10:56You can do this.

10:57And the worst is this one.

10:58Let's don't talk about it.

10:59And some people chose.

11:00Losers.

11:01This one.

11:02I can understand it.

11:03They say that the roof is higher.

11:06Like the ceiling.

11:07I don't know how you call it.

11:08Maybe.

11:09Okay.

11:10For the tall guys.

11:11It's more like.

11:12You feel less.

11:13Compressé.

11:14I don't know.

11:15Yeah.

11:16And.

11:17Yeah.

11:18Never try the bottom.

11:19Yeah.

11:20Mostly my tabs.

11:22My ear pod.

11:24Because it's quite noisy right here.

11:26So yeah.

11:27This is a game changer.

11:28And what else do we have?

11:30Water.

11:31Mine is very full.

11:32You want to see.

11:33Full?

11:34It's ridiculous.

11:35Yeah.

11:36I have like this.

11:37Because I don't want to take it from the back side.

11:39Oh.

11:40This is my prayer kit.

11:41Because I'm a Buddhist.

11:42So I pray.

11:43This is my juzhu.

11:44I have my glasses.

11:45Because I'm an old woman.

11:46Yeah.

11:47You have a lot of things.

11:48Yeah.

11:49I have like so many things.

11:50Yeah.

11:51Pods.

11:52For the throat.

11:53Because I cough sometimes.

11:54Because of the air.

11:55So to stop coughing during the night.

11:57Wait.

11:58Oh.

11:59Yeah.

12:00In case the pods are no more battery.

12:02What else?

12:03Yeah.

12:04And shushu.

12:05What's for the hair?

12:06Uh.

12:07This is noise cancelling like old style.

12:11Uh.

12:12What else?

12:13Oh.

12:14The pods.

12:15And uh.

12:16Yeah.

12:17And this is for my lips.

12:18And this is for my hands.

12:19Like the whole routine is here.

12:22Beauty routine.

12:23Yeah.

12:24And I think it's.

12:25Oh.

12:26Oh.

12:27And this coin.

12:28I don't know why.

12:57A poster.

12:58Quite a big one.

12:59And uh.

14:14After the concert.

14:15It's kind of ringing.
