00:00Lemon Oreo thins, goaded Oreo. The best Oreo.

00:03It's only gonna make me stronger.

00:05Trevor got put on the fucky-wucky board because he stabbed me in my dream.

00:30Hello, hello, hello. Hey, what's up, guys? We're Archers. I'm Grayson. This is Ben.

00:46We are currently on the temporary high tour with our friends and rivals of Virtue and Deadeyes.

00:51I know we just saw you last time in a 15 passenger. This time we have a bit of an upgrade.

00:55We're in a Starbust this time, so we're gonna give you a bit of a tour.

00:58Our new EP is titled Temporary High. It just came out in June, June 13th.

01:04We're super stoked on it. We did it with Matt Good in Arizona, put it out on SBG Records,

01:08and the fans seemed to love it, so thank you guys for listening to it.

01:11Yes, thank you.

01:11It's been super fun celebrating it every night on this tour,

01:14and we're stoked to see what we do next because we know and you do not.

01:18We've been watching a ton of Drake and Josh. Also, our TM in front of house is the big cartoon guy,

01:23so he's just been going nuts like Ben's watching cartoons. He gets up super early every morning and

01:28every day when I wake up to have my coffee. He's out here watching something.

01:31Yeah, we've watched a couple movies. We haven't really had any movie nights per se.

01:34I know that our vocalist Nathaniel has watched Sinners. Our photographer and merch guy Trev,

01:40he stays up the latest, so I have no idea what he's watching on here, but I know there's normally

01:45something. But normally, everyone's just kind of chilling. Everyone's hanging out nine times out of

01:50ten. It's either Drake and Josh or Courage the Cowderly Dog. We've watched that a lot.

01:54Ren and Stimpy's been the other big one. Okay, I've been asleep by then, so that must be...

01:58Yeah, that must be... That's like Matt's wake-up show.

01:59Okay, cool, cool, cool, cool. So over here, we're super lucky. We have a fridge and a freezer.

02:04We also have a microwave over here. I don't know if you can see that. Such a blessing to have on the

02:09road. Like I said, last time we were in a van, being able to have groceries and a way to make food every

02:13day when either there's nothing close to the venue, or maybe you don't want what's at the venue, or whatever. It's super nice.

02:19It also have these sweet locks on there, which is super nice. I haven't been here in a couple days,

02:24so I don't even know what's in here. We've got some energy drinks. This is my bang that I thought

02:28somebody drank of mine the other day. Clearly, they did not because it's sitting right there.

02:32Some Angry Orchard. This is literally Trevor's hair. We have some more cider. We're a big like cider

02:38seltzer band. Normally, that's how we leave the venue every night. We'll shower, then we'll just come sit

02:43on here, talk, crack open one of these guys, and just kind of hang. Not too many groceries in here. We

02:48try to not keep stuff that can go bad. I have hot dogs that I definitely need to throw out now that

02:52I'm looking at that because I've been in here for like two weeks. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ben's got iced

02:57coffee in here. Trevor's got these orange vanilla beers in here. A lot of the grocery stuff, we either

03:04go to Walmart every few days or we just take from our rider. So that's super nice and normally not

03:10stinky, which is also a plus. I can't get this to lock. Every day on the rider, we get, we call them

03:15Turk Sandoz. It's turkey, cheese, and bread. We did not coin that phrase. Our buddy Patty

03:20from If Not For Me coined the term Turk Sandoz. Yes, but Turk Sandoz has lived on ever since

03:25like we've done like eight tours with them. They survive. They don't because we smash them.

03:29Yes, they do not make it in here. No. And then we get, we have a bunch of cases of water and then we

03:34also get liquid IV. That tends to make its way on here every night and then usually either like some

03:39bourbon or some seltzers as well too. Yeah, we are a big Topo Chico margarita seltzer band.

03:44It's very, very crucial that it's the margarita ones, not the regular ones. Can only be the margarita

03:50ones. Get it out of my face. We also are a big sugar-free Red Bull band. I know there's a bunch

03:54of different energy drinks in there, but as far as the entire band, Archers is for sure a sugar-free

03:58Red Bull band. So plenty of extras down here, some liquid debt down here, more beer. That's definitely

04:04Trev's. None of us in the band drink beer except for Oscar. Beer's gross. It is red water. We got

04:10some coke down there. So we also, you want to get this. Most important thing. Yes, a fan the other

04:15night, a really young fan came to her first show ever and gave us this drawing that she made. She

04:20drew all of us that clearly it's insanely accurate. A little bow and arrow logo on there. That's super

04:25cool. So yeah, she had a blast. It was super fun watching her from the crowd. But in our freezer,

04:31let's see what we got here. A lot of my stuff. This is yours, right? Yes. This is Ben's bourbon.

04:37This is Trevor's tequila. Annie Ann's makes frozen pretzel dogs. They slap. RTM in front of house.

04:44His name is Matt. I love him dearly. The biggest thing I don't love about him is he eats frozen

04:50White Castle sliders on the RV. And I think that's disgusting. I mean, every once in a while,

04:56White Castle's. White Castle's all right. Get out of here. Don't listen to this guy. If you look in here,

05:00these are my groceries up top. I got some pizza rolls. I got some Jimmy Dean biscuits and gravy that

05:05Ben turned me on to. Very good. They also have, oh, I don't have any more left. Never mind. I lied.

05:11This is actually Ben's. I think I have, yes, these. These are my go-to. These, uh, this is still Ben's.

05:19You guys went to Walmart, didn't you? I went to Walmart. Okay. I was like, there's so much.

05:23No, I did. I got to go. Normally I have the like sausage, egg, gravy,

05:28more protein thingy, but Ben turned me on to these and they're great. They're amazing. Ben's

05:31also a big pizza bagel guy. So there's bagel bites in there. I believe this is Matt's. Nope.

05:36That's fine. That's awesome, Ben. This entire freezer shop. I grocery shopped yesterday.

05:39We clearly need to go to the store. Ben's been to the store. Also, we've got a cup of ice in here for

05:44making drinks at the end of the night. I don't know what these bottles are. What's this?

05:48Trevor's tequila. So Trevor has more tequila. Gin for sharing. Gin for friends. Matt's very bad

05:55bourbon that I'm not a fan of. Okay. Matt likes White Castle and bad bourbon. So I am a psychopath

06:01and I don't want to share anything. It's less that I don't want to share. If you ask, I'll share

06:04whatever. It's probably not my business in gravy, but that's a different story. But I have claimed all

06:09of my stuff on here. That way I know what's mine. I know if it goes missing. Um, don't take my

06:16shit or I will find you. So there's that. So this is a shoe rack we grabbed on Amazon. Super cheap,

06:21but has been an insane lifesaver. Uh, really nice. We've also got our foot spray up here and

06:28a lint roller. And I don't know if you can see it because it's camo, but my hoodie back here.

06:34Yeah. Shoe rack's crucial. Um, Trevor, our photographer, refused to use it for some reason.

06:38So this is, I'm calling if you look, his shoes are also next to the shoe rack. Now,

06:44and normally they're right here, but, uh, Trevor wants to be different. He just wants the shoes

06:48by the shoe rack. Photographers are weird, man. Something I do want to highlight too,

06:52about the star bus, this specific one is that there's two couches, which is sick. Luckily,

06:58everybody who's sleeping on here has a bunk. But if we had any extras, this guy turns into a bed that

07:03actually has a curtain as well. So this can turn into a bed. This guy can turn into a bed. This can

07:09turn into a bed. But in our case where everybody has a bed, this is like maximum hang space.

07:14Another great thing too, is we have wifi on the bus, which is insane.

07:17Little charger guy up here. Outlets everywhere.

07:20And then we got all, everybody has kind of their own, uh, cabinet. This is mine. Again,

07:26I haven't been to the store in a while. So mine's, mine's extremely bare. I have a shirt that a fan

07:30brought me. Um, plastic silverware. This is my Easy Mac. This is what I'm consuming on, uh,

07:36the RV the most. I had SpongeBob shaped Easy Mac. I prefer that. But the last one we went to only

07:42had regular because they were boring and didn't like having fun. If you go in here, there's more,

07:47I'm a big, uh, scent person. So there's a lot of things to make things smell good. This is my laundry

07:53detergent, uh, Ziploc bags, solo cups. Ooh, I want to talk about these. These are my pride and joy.

08:01These are, that are almost gone. And I have not eaten these. So if you can tell somebody has been

08:06getting into these because they're almost gone. Lemon Oreo thins, goaded Oreo, the best Oreo,

08:13maybe second best. Cause the original is the best double stuff. Get out of my face. But these are fire.

08:18Um, I have some almonds in there and then normally I have, uh, some sort of like sweet thing. So I had

08:24Scooby-Doo fruit snacks at one point. I just finished my box of Gushers, uh, the other day

08:29because I'm a big, people are hanging. We're either eating fruit snacks or Gushers. It's just happening.

08:34I don't know. Down here we have our TMS printer that we bought. We put it up here. This is his area.

08:40Hand sanitizer, little plant for vibes. I don't know whose hat this is. It kind of just appeared.

08:44It's Matt's hat. Um, we use this roll of tape as a cup holder because there's not one

08:47on here. Remote for the TV. This is a guitar humidifier. Yep. And no things.

08:53We also have these non-slip mats on this surface and on here for laptops. Um, mostly it's our TM

08:59and our photographer Trevor, um, either doing emails, working on advances, working on photos,

09:05doing whatever. Trev is shooting for multiple bands on this tour. So he is up super late grinding,

09:10um, going to bed at like four o'clock in the morning because he's insane, but his photos are sick.

09:16So we're happy to have them. This right here, this is a heater that we're not using,

09:19but it's super nice to have it if it were to be a winter tour. Luckily the driver has two of his own

09:24ACs. We have this one for this lounge. And then also when you see the bunk room later, there's an AC

09:30back there. So this stays frigid, which we're touring in the Midwest in July. We're going to be

09:35down in Texas in a few days. It gets really hot. So that's sick. You want to show them your,

09:39your, so this is my cabinet in here. I've got, apparently I have a mic clip. Um, and I've got

09:47some peanut butter crackers, which is my favorite snack and some Zalvita Easy Mac, some protein cookies,

09:55some pita chips and my pride and joy. This is, this is a hat that a fan knit for me. It looks incredible.

10:06It's only going to make me stronger. Oh my God.

10:11This is seriously like, it was such a sweet gift. Yeah. Yeah. Same fan. This is a fan, uh,

10:16knit this for our vocalist Nathaniel. No wait, not the same fan. I think I lied. Maybe it was,

10:20I don't remember. Our fans are really nifty. They're extremely crafty. Um, they're always

10:25making the stuff that panda that's hanging there is a fan gift. Um, I, that's my favorite thing

10:30more than like gift cards or whatever. I really like letters the most. I like handmade stuff.

10:34I took my, I yesterday was an off day, so I went home yesterday, but I took all of my fan gifts home.

10:38The same fan that knit his hat knit me a knit Baja blast cup that had an actual lid and a straw

10:46and the Taco Bell log on. It was sick. It was sick. So they're rad. They're always making

10:50stuff. Um, right here, we have our trash can. This gets full multiple times a day. And luckily,

10:58normally Chad's taking the trash out, our driver, who is the man, by the way,

11:02this right here is really important. So this right here is the fucky wucky board. Now,

11:08ignore all the BS under my name because it's all fake. It's earned. It's all fake. It was earned.

11:12If you mess up. So if you miss bus call, if you, this is funny, no red bull for Chad,

11:18Matt got put on the fucky wucky board. Um, most of this is a joke, except for our bass player.

11:25He misses, he missed bus call night one. Um, he missed bus call again. Um, he left his pass

11:32night one, lost it. Um, our vocalist Nathaniel is far from perfect. I don't know who put that on

11:37there, but we're going to just go ahead and erase that part. Um, and then I don't even,

11:42we don't even need to talk about my part. It's all real. Oh, Trevor got put on the

11:46fucky wucky board because he stabbed me in my dream. So yeah, cool. Other really, really, uh,

11:55nice thing about these star busses. I actually have a shower and a toilet. This is the shower.

11:59We don't use it. It just get water everywhere, but it's basically catch all storage. We'll hang

12:03wet towels, sweaty show clothes, all that stuff. Um, this is just all of our singer stuff that he

12:08decided belongs right there. Um, this is the bathroom, which is so nice to have. If you want

12:14to look in there, just toilet sink cabinets mirror, make sure you look pretty. Normally I'm in there

12:19like two seconds before VIP starts to make sure that I don't look like I just rolled out of an RV.

12:23Um, but yeah, having that is super sick. Biggest rule on the RV, only pee. If you do anything more

12:29than pee, you're getting left in the city that we're in because I'm not paying the fine for you to not

12:35pee in there. So I'm watching you. Cool part about these star buses specifically is that yeah,

12:41it's just an RV, but it was, it was gutted and completely rebuilt, um, around touring bands.

12:46So that's why the multiple couches are sick. The table's sick. All of the storage is sick. Um,

12:51having the shower and toilet separated, super sick. Um, and then what's really cool too, is this is the

12:56bunk room where I'm sure if you've watched a lot of these videos, you see bandwagons where the bunks are

13:01just kind of in the lounge, we have a completely separate separate room, um, that I'm going to

13:06take you in. All of this is soundproofed as well. So when people are out here hanging and people want

13:10to go to bed, you cannot hear a peep. It's awesome. So we're gonna go ahead and go in here.

13:16It's super tiny, super tight, but we have again, another AC unit, which is so nice.

13:21And then I'll kind of show you around. This is Matt's bunk. He has some really cool lights in there.

13:25He left us open to share. He's reading a book. I believe it's Marilyn Manson's book he's reading.

13:30He's got a Raiders blanket on there. I don't know why. I guess he's a football fan. I've never

13:35heard him talk about it, but I'm going to ask now. Um, and then under him, we have Ben's bunk and we

13:39have, um, who's under him? Pulley or, uh, Nathaniel, our vocalist is under there. This is my bunk.

13:45If you remember in the last episode, I had my superhero blanket. It fights off all the bad dreams.

13:50It's been doing a good job fighting off the bad dreams other than the one where Trevor stabbed me.

13:55So that's why he got put on the board. It's all making sense now. It's all coming together.

13:58I also have this fan gift that somebody made me. My favorite animal is a ringtail lemur.

14:02So he's got a little ice cream guy. He's cute. What's the hate about it?

14:06These RVs make me insanely motion sick, which is never a problem that I've really had ever,

14:10but there's no windows in here. I have the top bunk, which is historically the most bumpy.

14:15So I have some Dramamine in here. Um, some more ginger chews that help with like motion sickness,

14:20bottle of water. I also have, um, I don't know if I can grab it. I'm going to try it.

14:24I have these car air fresheners in here. Again, I'm a big scent guy. So I have car air fresheners

14:30locked and loaded. No bad smells around me. Um, I'll freak out. We also, what's super nice too,

14:36um, switch the curtain is each of these bunks have a light, which is super nice. I use it literally

14:43every night. We have two outlets, which normally my phone charger is plugged in here. It's in the venue

14:48right now. Um, but I also have this fan that I bought from Walmart because, because there's an

14:53external AC unit, none of these vents work, which means there's technically no airflow in the bunk

14:58unless your curtain is wide open. So I'll turn this fan on at night. It's just a clip fan that I

15:04hid the cord with this extra pillow, ran into that outlet. So, um, I can just turn this on when I go to

15:09sleep and I've got constant airflow on me. It's sick. Um, especially coming from a van. So much nicer.

15:15This is my pillow extra pillow back here. So I believe the star bus came with this step ladder,

15:21which in theory is incredibly useful. And I'm very thankful for the thought. The problem is that

15:26it's not quite tall enough to not get in here and still have a bit of a struggle. So while it is nice,

15:34I normally end up just using the other bunks as a ladder and climbing in here, but it's extremely roomy.

15:40I get to lay flat. Um, once I take the motion sickness stuff, I'm chilling. It's great. So

15:46super stoked on these. Um, this is also storage, um, where we have like extra blankets and stuff.

15:53All of these bunks came with bedding. Um, all of us just coming from a van, we weren't expecting that.

15:58So we brought, um, blankets, pillows, all that stuff. So that's why there's an extra pillow on the

16:03couch out there, extra comforters in here if anybody wants them. Like I said, it's a summer tour.

16:07It's pretty hot. So blankets aren't like a huge need, but if it was a winter tour,

16:12we have extra blankets. There's another heater back here. So that means there's one for up front,

16:16just like the ACs. Um, there's also a heater back here. So winter tours, keep it nice and warm.

16:21Nobody's getting cold and yeah, super sick. Thank you guys for coming into our home on the temporary

16:26high tour. Again, we're out this month, July with rivals of virtue dead eyes. We're going to be back out

16:33in October on the temporary high tour part two with nerve of virtue and dead eyes. So rivals is going

16:40to Europe. Uh, so we're super stoked for them. Nerves going to take their spot in the fall and we will

16:44see you out there. If you want to follow us before that, follow us on Instagram, archers us follow us
