00:00It's way better than just trying to do the baby wipes. We're all snackers. Obviously no number twos allowed

00:07That's good shit, man

00:30Well, hello there. Come on in. Welcome to the Word of Lives. We call it a little stub bus. We're in a Pullman coach on this tour and

00:52Here are my guys. This is a this Marcus our tour manager

00:58Logan Jose play guitar Kingsley tattoo artists our friend vibe hyper upper and

01:05This guy over here is Devin. He's getting tattooed and

01:10We are on the eyes above tour right now our headliner with TX2 and unwell

01:16And yeah, we're we're in a new Pullman coach. My friend Jeremy started this company and

01:22Based out of Nashville, Tennessee, which is where the band is now located

01:27So it was perfect for us doing a long set every night

01:31You know wanting to be able to make sure our band and crews getting to the shows not only safe but sleeping well

01:37We've had some pretty bad luck with RVs the last few tours

01:40So Jeremy stepped in and was like let's make sure you guys are good for your headliner. So here we are and

01:45and

01:47the this is so different from you know your typical bus or

01:52RV or bandwagon in that you come in and this whole wraparound front area normally

01:58We're not getting tattooed in it

02:00But it's it's nice because no matter which place you sit you get to watch movie or watch Logan play video games

02:07Which is pretty common?

02:09occurrence

02:11so I mostly am on my own playing Elden Ring or Sekiro games like that but

02:16Sometimes me and Devin throw down some NHL and I whoop them over and over again and

02:22Other times telly and Devin are screaming at each other playing Madden. So yeah, we have you know

02:28We like to have fun here. We like to get mad at each other

02:31We actually do need a rematch

02:33We do when you're when you're done. We need a rematch

02:38You won by one point

02:43The last second field goal as time expired no I actually had one second left and I was like go fuck yourself

02:49Here comes the comeback king

02:52I'm the comeback, comeback king

02:55Oh

02:56I mean Washington capitals all the way through I'm from outside DC and

03:03And this guy over here is always Detroit. Yes, yes doesn't doesn't help out his bad playing you know what I mean

03:10Okay, all right

03:12I'm from Detroit Michigan so I've always got a rep Detroit teams and I feel like golf is one of the best

03:19quarterbacks

03:20there is in the NFL

03:22so

03:23Yeah

03:25And I I normally play with Cowboys, but I'm boycotting my own team because Jerry Jones is

03:32Such a terrible owner and he has brought me nothing but pain and grief for the last like 30 years straight

03:39We're ruining this franchise

03:41So I'm boycotting

03:44Pullman's got all these sick cubbies around and pretty much everybody has claimed one

03:48I claim Dumero uno

03:49Let me show you what I got

03:51Got some shoes

03:53Some magic cards

03:55Protein powder

03:57Oats

03:59Snacks

03:59My snack box up here and the essentials

04:03Some gum

04:05This is my backup toothbrush for when I inevitably lose my main toothbrush which I did yesterday

04:11It's called revolution

04:13Yeah, this little guy came handy and saved the day always keep your shit fresh everybody

04:18And I don't know whose stuff is in here

04:21Oh, wait

04:23Oh, not all of us keep our areas as tidy as everybody else

04:29That's just random shit

04:31Don't you worry about what's up in there

04:33My backpack

04:35Some raw cane sugar

04:37Well, yeah, that's the most random one

04:39Yeah

04:41This is where we keep some necessary supplies for the day

04:45We've got plates bowls

04:47Clorox wipes so we can keep it clean

04:49Honey for everyone

04:51Some oxygen

04:52We just went and played Colorado and that elevation is a killer

04:56So we tried to get in these like oxygen things

04:59This is a menthol one

04:59Maybe I'll hit it for you on on tape real quick

05:02That's good shit, man

05:10Yeah

05:12I'll notice how he's still going to have it in mine and he grabbed two things

05:16Yeah, Mr. Frontman with his two habits

05:20Oh, call him John Atuka

05:22Okay, it's very disorganized right now

05:24Um, because I just threw everything

05:26What is great that's in here

05:30I just got this vintage meatloaf shirt

05:34From what's the vintage store called in Des Moines

05:38We went to?

05:40Uh, Goldeneye

05:42Goldeneye

05:44Yeah, Meatloaf was a band that my dad would always play

05:46So I saw this and I was like

05:48I want to get something that reminds me of my dad

05:50So I came up on this shirt

05:52And yeah, this is very disorganized

05:54Oh, I will have some of these

05:56Okay

05:58This is, I'm glad I came again now

06:00So

06:02It's kind of slammed right now

06:04We got stuff for the show

06:06Acoustic, we're playing an acoustic song on this tour

06:08Me and Logan do a rendition of our song Slow Burn

06:10And so we keep the acoustics up there safe

06:16And just like random stuff that gets pulled out every single day

06:22So above my head I keep my hats because I'm bald

06:28And I love hats, I just got this one

06:30I'm not that much of a New York fan

06:32But I really like their merch

06:36Um, yeah, so I have a collection of hats

06:40And then some rice, some mac and cheese

06:42Yeah, so that's my tiny little cubby

06:44And we also keep the Xbox in there

06:46So it's a sacred, sacred cubby

06:50There's a few things, so it rotates

06:52It's either

06:54We have a shared schedule

06:56It is like a shared workspace

06:58Yeah

07:00Time shares

07:02It's either usually me, Jose

07:04Or a content person mac

07:06Editing, Jose does ads

07:08I do a lot of social stuff

07:10Then it'll rotate

07:12He's tour managing Marcus

07:14Doing all his stuff

07:16Taking care of us

07:18And then what takes up

07:20I'd say 30% of the chunk or more

07:22They're trying to increase their shares

07:24Is the magic squad

07:26Thank you very much for playing four person commander

07:28At this bad boy right here

07:30I got enough space to set my map yonder

07:32And put all my dice out

07:34You know what I mean?

07:36And you can get four bad boys

07:38Spread across this sucker here

07:40So I like that

07:42I mean I'm trying to get everybody into playing magic

07:44Just got Logan involved

07:46Marcus has played a game

07:48Jade, Mac, and Blake

07:50Who are all our content

07:52Front of house and guitar tags

07:54So I'm trying to get everybody

07:56Hooked on the drug

07:58Not telly

08:00He's too cool for it

08:02Listen, it's not that I'm too cool

08:04I like the photo, I like the pictures

08:06I just like to watch

08:08I like the pictures

08:10I don't like to read very much

08:12Exactly

08:14See I feel the same way about you guys playing NHL

08:16In the end

08:17Of course

08:18I'd be able to watch this

08:19Yeah

08:20I'm not a sports guy

08:21Yeah

08:22So

08:23That's

08:24Yeah

08:25There we go

08:26I think that that's really good

08:28Because we can fit so many people at one time

08:30You know

08:31So it's like other

08:32Everyone wanted to get involved

08:34We could

08:35Like we have ample space

08:36You know

08:37I'm able to like set up my printer

08:38I can do my computer

08:39Phone charging

08:40Like all that

08:41And someone else can still work over here

08:43Like I think the space is great

08:44Yeah dude

08:45Why is my girlfriend on your phone?

08:46This is your phone

08:47That's your phone

08:49Why do you have my girlfriend on your phone?

08:53Yeah

08:54I like when you put your printer out

08:55And my magic mat on top of that

08:57I put some dice out

08:58Yeah

08:59Yeah

09:00But it works

09:01It works

09:02Okay

09:03So

09:04This was a little bit

09:05I admit

09:06Disorganized

09:08Prior to your arrival

09:09Because

09:11We had

09:12Four bags

09:13Of

09:14Fita chips

09:17A couple bags

09:18Of these sweet

09:19Spicy chili

09:20So I just combined all those

09:22Because we will get multiple bags

09:24And everyone's eating them

09:26So I did clean up a little bit

09:28But

09:29Snack

09:30We're all snackers

09:31All of us

09:32We snack heavy

09:33So this is normally just covered in snacks

09:36We're devouring them throughout the day

09:38This is about as nice as it gets

09:40This is Jade's little mixer

09:42Jade's our front of house

09:43You know he's a resident magic player

09:46He also makes a very good whiskey sour

09:50And

09:51Margarita too

09:52Oh yeah and Margarita

09:53And so he'll

09:54Every once in a while he'll

09:55Make us a drink or two

09:57And then we have

09:58The good thing about this

09:59The good thing about this

10:00Obviously a microwave that's nice

10:02The best thing about this

10:04Versus almost

10:06Any bus

10:07Or bandwagon in particular

10:09Or RV

10:10This is a full size fridge

10:12And freezer

10:13Very nice

10:14Very big

10:15And I'll let Jose

10:16Show you what's in there

10:17Let me show you the pull out

10:19Look at this

10:21That is a deep dish pizza

10:23And a deep dish freezer

10:24A couple bottles in there

10:26You know what I mean

10:27Deep dish pizza

10:29I'm pretty sure this came from Dollar Tree

10:31This is probably Blake's

10:32He likes to buy these quick meals

10:34Because he works

10:35A lot

10:36And all day

10:37So

10:38Get a quick little snack

10:39Also

10:40I think Jade stocked this up

10:41On popsicles

10:42For the rest of the tour

10:43There's a lot in here

10:44So

10:45Want a sweet treat

10:46You just cut the top off

10:47And

10:48Get to sucking

10:49We got a big fridge on this rig too

10:53Which is very nice

10:54Got a bunch of condiments here

10:56Got some coconut water

10:57Which is

10:58Me and Telly

10:59We drink these everyday

11:00Um

11:01You know

11:02This is a Monster Zero Sugar

11:03This is for Logan

11:04But this is not the one he wanted

11:06I'll tell you that right now

11:07He's a Mangaloco man

11:08So

11:09If you ever want to get him a sweet treat

11:10Bring him a Mangaloco Monster

11:12He would love you forever

11:14Um

11:15Sriracha

11:16Got some nice stuff in there

11:17What's this?

11:18Water bottles

11:20To stay hydrated

11:21Protein shakes

11:22Skullbrew coffee

11:23I've been doing this thing on this tour

11:25That

11:26I don't know if anybody else

11:27Thinks is as funny as I do

11:28But

11:29I call it the Uncrustable Cam

11:30Where every night

11:31I'm walking out

11:32And getting an Uncrustable

11:33To a fan

11:34In the front row

11:35Whoever

11:36Asks for it the most

11:37Um

11:38Yeah

11:39I don't know

11:40It came to me in a dream

11:41It's a dream come true for them

11:44I'm sure

11:45Yeah

11:46Seems hungry

11:47Seems hungry

11:48Yeah

11:49Got some Corona in here

11:51I was uh

11:52A little uh

11:53Let's just say

11:54Inebriated after one show

11:55And decided at 2am

11:57I needed some Fritos

11:58Jalapeno cheddar cheese

11:59It's still pretty full

12:00But

12:01Let's see what that

12:02Has to say tonight

12:03So everyday

12:04Pretty much we get

12:05A catering rider

12:06Which is like

12:07Basic essentials we need

12:09Or would like

12:10For the show

12:11Which is like water

12:12If we want like

12:13Some beer

12:14Refreshments, coffee

12:15Energy drinks

12:16Just stuff that you go through

12:17On a normal day

12:18So a lot of what's in here

12:19Right now is that

12:20Like this cold brew

12:21We get everyday

12:22Um

12:23Jade in front of house

12:24He likes that stuff

12:25I'm convinced that this

12:26Cold brew coffee does

12:27Absolutely nothing

12:28I can drink like 3 cups

12:29And it feels like

12:30I'm just drinking water

12:31So

12:32Um

12:33We also have

12:34On this tour

12:35A new thing

12:36Is the Uncrustables

12:37It just keeps coming back

12:38Into my life

12:39Some Coronas

12:41Um

12:42We also have like

12:4318 things of promise

12:44In here

12:45Uh

12:46That has not even been opened yet

12:47That's on the rider everyday

12:49Some lunch meat

12:50And

12:51Protein shakes

12:52I think that's mostly it

12:53Chips and salsa

12:54Yeah

12:55Alright

12:56So now I'm going to show you

12:57The sleeping arrangements

12:58So this is my bunk

12:59Right here

13:00I keep uh

13:01I keep Venom in here with me

13:02This is my son's stuffy

13:03I take on the road with me

13:04See

13:05We have like

13:06The lighter sleepers sleep up here

13:07So I don't really mind

13:08Anybody

13:09Being loud at night

13:10I can kinda sleep through anything

13:11So it doesn't really bother me

13:12And then

13:13For people that have

13:14A little bit more trouble with that

13:15We have 6 more bunks back here

13:17Um

13:18This is where we keep type 1

13:21What's up?

13:23Yeah

13:24I mean

13:25I don't even know where anybody sleeps

13:27I don't even spend much time back here

13:29But

13:30This is uh

13:31This is where we sleep

13:32I don't even know why you guys choose

13:33The bunks that they do

13:34I prefer the middle bunk

13:36Because

13:37I can't get all the way down there

13:38My legs are way too long

13:39But

13:40Yeah

13:41This is we got

13:42Telly

13:43And Marcus down here

13:44We have

13:45Devin

13:46And Jose

13:47And then

13:48Type 1

13:49And

13:50Jade are up here

13:51Um

13:52I think these are probably the worst bunks to get into

13:54So

13:55This is probably like last choice for everybody to be honest

13:57Welcome

13:58Welcome

13:59Welcome to the banyo

14:00Check out this here too

14:02This is very important

14:04Um

14:05Yeah

14:06This is the bathroom

14:07It's pretty sick

14:08It's like a full bathroom

14:10So we have a shower

14:11Sink

14:12Area

14:13Bathroom

14:14Here

14:15Obviously no number 2's allowed

14:16Cut the shit

14:18Um

14:19There's some cool

14:20Cabinets

14:21We can like

14:22Put stuff in

14:23Store stuff

14:24Um

14:25There's storage underneath here

14:26As well like cleaning supplies

14:28Or

14:29Dry shampoo

14:30Or anything like that

14:31You might need throughout the tour

14:32This has actually got the nicest shower

14:34I think I've ever used on any

14:36Uh

14:37Tour vehicle

14:38It's got multiple

14:39It's got multiple heads

14:40I've only used the top one

14:41But the hot water is crazy

14:43Um

14:44You know

14:45Just like any bus

14:46Like the tank is only so big

14:47Cause you have to take very very short showers

14:49But

14:50I don't know

14:51It's way better than just trying to do the baby wipes

14:52Or like

14:53A jug of

14:54Unfiltered water

14:56Or something like that

14:57So

14:58Yeah
