FunTranscript
00:00Just to piss people off, we've just been doing that.
00:04Days of the Hot Back, for those of you that don't know, a lot of the time you're not supposed to poop on tour.
00:09It's super nice having a dirty towel in between your nice jackets.
00:30Hello Bus Invaders, we're Grayscale, come on in.
00:50We're Grayscale, we're out with our last night promoting our new record The Heart which came
00:53out January of this year.
00:55Our bus theme this tour is Bikini Bottom.
00:58Let's take a look at some of the decorations, shall we?
01:02We have this light from Amazon, we've got a Squidward flag, some jellyfish.
01:09We have some in SpongeBob, the flowers are like the skyline and we actually had it across
01:14this entire thing but the first day it fell off because of the air conditioning and stuff
01:17so it's unfortunate.
01:18We have a nice chic painting of Squidward over there.
01:22You see there's a Bikini Bottom sign back there, welcome to Bikini Bottom, yeah.
01:26A little welcome to Bikini Bottom.
01:30A hot bag with a dick, sorry about that.
01:32I didn't know that was going to be on there.
01:34But Days Without Hot Bag, for those of you that don't know, a lot of the time you're not
01:40supposed to poop on tour because nine people, it's one thing when it's like, you know, family
01:46traveling but when you're on a bus or a bandwagon or RV or anything like that, having like nine
01:51adults poop is not a fun thing, especially on a summer tour.
01:55So a hot bag comes in the instance where you have to emergency shit into a bag because
02:00you're not going to make it to a public bathroom outside.
02:03It's only number one in the bathroom.
02:05Okay, here's our TV.
02:07We've been playing a lot of NCAA 26, the video game.
02:12I think Battlefield 6 just came out, it's like a shooter.
02:15I don't play that, but Andrew plays it a lot.
02:17So it's been fun having four controllers and eight, nine people watching one person do a
02:22shooter.
02:23It's a great time.
02:24I wouldn't much prefer playing four player games, but that's show business, you know,
02:26it is what it is.
02:27Up here, this is my storage area, this backpack, a windbreaker, a hoodie, a little mini hat collection
02:36back here.
02:37I don't know who this is, it might be Jake's, just a bunch of clothes, just a bunch of shit
02:42thrown in there.
02:43Here's a bunk, this Jake's bunk, he's our media guy, so he's got all kinds of like equipment
02:47and stuff.
02:48A little nice clip on fan, I should do something like that honestly, I get hot in that, I run
02:52hot.
02:53And this is kind of like our communal bench and if we ever have like friends or visitors
02:57or anybody coming out, this converts into a bed.
03:01And this is the, this is our living room, this is where we spend a lot of time just kind
03:06of hanging.
03:07If we're playing video games, watching movies, it's usually two people here, somebody in
03:10the community couch, somebody will crawl up here, um, that kind of seats four or five
03:15right there.
03:16And then, I like sitting this way when we're moving and looking out, but I know some people
03:19get car sick, but I don't, I fortunately don't get super car sick.
03:23I know Nick and Dallas get it really bad.
03:25This is just, uh, you know those like annoying things that like kids do at the beach, like
03:29all the time.
03:30I don't know who bought these honestly, but I think just to piss people off, we've just
03:34been doing that.
03:36Somebody just did it to be a menace.
03:37I don't know who it was.
03:38I don't really like having these things on, waking people up, but somebody just being an
03:43asshole.
03:44So, yeah.
03:45So we, uh, we have like a, this thing we call peaks and pits at the end of the night.
03:49We go through like our day, like our good and bad things of our day.
03:53And being the SpongeBob theme, we have a fry cook hat and a spatula, which was hilarious
03:57cause this literally was just like, we just Amazon the spatula, which is felt ridiculous
04:02to do.
04:03Like as if we could have just used a used spatula, like one of us just could have brought
04:06a spatula from our house.
04:07And it's particularly funny if somebody has a bad day on tour and they have to wear the
04:11fry cook hat and explain whether day was bad.
04:13We thought that would be funny.
04:14So, uh, no bad days yet though.
04:16So we'll see.
04:17I think, I think the idea is you wear the spatula or you hold the spatula and wear the hat
04:23when you're talking, we own a circle.
04:25You know what I mean?
04:26This talking spat, the fry cook talking spatula.
04:28Yeah.
04:29Uh, and over here we have like a coat rack.
04:31Um, I really love all saints.
04:32They're a great brand.
04:33That's that coat.
04:35And I think the other one's lucky brand and then a dirty towel in between them,
04:38which is super nice having a dirty towel in between your nice jackets.
04:42Highly recommend.
04:43Got additional overhead storage here.
04:45I don't know what's in here.
04:46It looks like some strings.
04:48What the fuck are these?
04:50Bobo's PB and Jake.
04:52I don't know.
04:53A little peanut butter jellies.
04:54I prefer incrustables, but whatever.
04:56Um, just a mixture of hair spray, Lysol wipes, wrinkle release.
05:02We use this a lot.
05:03Like wrinkled clothes, I hate.
05:05And obviously there's not really a lot of room.
05:07Unless you're doing like the hotel thing every day to iron your clothes.
05:09So wrinkle release is a big thing.
05:11The gray skill uses a lot.
05:13Uh, yeah.
05:14And then we got the fridge here.
05:15We have these nice little hooks so shit doesn't come flying throughout the night.
05:18I think that's a smart, nice little addition.
05:20Um, it's basically just, uh, Celsius and coffee.
05:25That's literally it.
05:28This is the second day of tour.
05:30So that's just what we brought from home.
05:32But sometimes our rider, anything left over from the rider, we will bring out here.
05:36But to be honest, the grayscale rider is like bare bones.
05:38It's just beer, uh, Red Bull, water, sometimes whiskey.
05:43That's literally it.
05:44We, we prefer to just like get a little buyout.
05:46We take what you don't have people shop for the rider.
05:49Usually getting cash and we'll just go get food.
05:51Like we love, we love, we're big food people.
05:53So we'll go out and try food places everywhere else in the cities that we're in.
05:57There is, I love Reese's Pieces.
06:02So these are, these are my, I keep these on me at all times, like a box of frozen Reese's Pieces.
06:07I age them in there.
06:08Sometimes on tour I'll have like multiple bags and I'll be like, to piss the guys off.
06:12I'll be like, oh, that one's like nine days aged.
06:14Like I pretend they're like wine.
06:16It pisses Dallas off a lot.
06:18It's good.
06:19Let's do the bathroom.
06:20It's your pretty standard bathroom.
06:23Um, we got another jellyfish in here.
06:25You know, a little bit of SpongeBob theme there.
06:27And then our shower curtain, the boys did a good job with like full on, um, SpongeBob shower curtain.
06:33Yeah, there you go.
06:34That's about it.
06:35And then a Febreze in the corner.
06:37It depends.
06:38A lot of people like, like when we did our tour with small pools, we like had a full, like the bigger bus.
06:43And a lot of people just use the shower for storage, but we love using the shower.
06:47I like, I use the shower in here almost every day.
06:49Like if the venue shower is really nice, I'll do that.
06:51But I kind of like my own little system, even though it's like tiny.
06:55I don't, I don't mind the bus RV bandwagon shower.
06:58Yeah.
06:59Um, and then this is bunk alley.
07:01Nothing really exciting to be honest.
07:03It's just, uh, some bunks.
07:05Here's mine.
07:06Uh, here's my, this is like my gig, my day bag.
07:09I've been doing this recently and we're like, instead of bringing my suitcase in every day
07:13and forgetting things and having to repack it, I just kind of have like my little day bag.
07:18Cause I'm very forgetful.
07:19So I figured worst case, if I forget one pair of clothes and pair of boots and this,
07:24that's much better than forgetting my entire backpack or a suitcase in the venue.
07:28So that's been kind of my new thing.
07:30Um, what else is in here?
07:31I have a little, if you want to come in here, like a, these have a nice little, oh yeah.
07:36I have this little noise machine.
07:37It's kind of ridiculous, but I'm a big noise machine guy.
07:42I've got summer night, we got thunder, ocean.
07:48So that's a big thing for me.
07:49I enjoy noise machines.
07:51This actually has a little led strip here.
07:54So at night, at night I kind of rock like an orange, like a little orange or sometimes blue.
08:00Like that's kind of my vibe at night.
08:02Um, yeah.
08:03And then I got my eye mask and my earplugs cause I'm like very particular about sleep.
08:08So I need an eye mask cause I'm a, I'm a baby with sleep and that's kind of bunk alley.
08:13So, um, I feel the bunk selection process, like the singer diva thing of like,
08:21I need my sleep is that's definitely the way that I am.
08:23And I know it's annoying, but it is what it is.
08:25Cause it's really the only way to truly rest your vocal cords is good sleep.
08:28I think the tops are a little bumpier.
08:31Um, the bottoms I've done bottom in the past, but I think the middle is like,
08:38you get the nice balance of, I think what I don't like about this is the air condition
08:41of the cold air sinks down here.
08:43Um, and it can be like really dry, cold air, which I don't love.
08:47And then up here, the tops are kind of like, I feel like you swing the most.
08:52Um, also sometimes on the bottoms, if you like hit something like underneath the undercarriage
08:57of the, of the bus, like you feel it.
08:59And so I felt the middle is a nice in between where you're not getting rocked up here too
09:03much back and forth.
09:04You're not feeling potholes quite as much and the cold air isn't sinking all the way down.
09:08So that's my, in theory why I like the back.
09:11I'm literally, I'm, I'm usually back middle either left or right.
09:13I'm not, uh, particular about which side, but as long as I'm back middle, that's yeah.
09:17I'm happy, happy boy.
09:18You've been watching Bus Invaders.
09:20I'm Colin from Grayscale.
09:21Uh, we're on tour right now with Our Last Night promoting our new record, The Heart.
09:25Thank you so much.
09:26I got to get ready for the show, but we'll see you next time.
09:28Bye, I know, we're on tour right now.
09:29Bye, bye, bye, bye.
09:32Bye, bye, bye.
09:34You
