00:00I remember when Chris photoshopped the picture, us in front of a stadium, sold out stadium.
00:09That's why it's called This Is Our Dream Tour, because it was all a dream, you know?
00:23I remember Wednesday, even Tuesdays sometimes, Wednesdays or Thursdays, you get that text,
00:29hey we got a gig on Saturday, hell yeah, like, you get all happy, because you know you're
00:35about to work, and then Friday hits, hey we got another gig today out of nowhere, get
00:41happy, it's a crazy feeling, like, kind of like telling a kid, hey we're about to go
00:48to this, and it was that same feeling, we got a gig on Saturday, right?
00:52Like when there was a privada, you know, you're about to go serve a little whiskey, it was
00:57like the best job ever, free tacos, that's how it was, just like, you know, in the hood,
01:05the feeling of some free tacos, it was just mostly like a jam out in the backyard.
01:10Yeah, like you're jamming out, you're having fun.
01:12But it was kind of, for me, it was kind of nerve-wracking, because you still got to perform,
01:18so they call you back, you want to get called back to work with the clients, but yeah, I
01:25mean.
01:25Yeah, it was still like Chambalaya, at the end of the day we had to go perform good, like,
01:29hey we're going to do this chaca, you know, like we're going to do it good.
01:31We probably did like one or two quinceaneras, but our type of client were foods drinking, foods
01:36having little carne asada, pretty much.
01:39They used to have a start at 10 p.m., 11 p.m.
01:41Or like little parties, like birthday parties, a lot of birthday parties, there was a lot
01:45of birthday parties, like not too big, you know, just like a comida one.
01:49Like 40 people.
01:50Or sometimes, yeah, I see I got carpitas, but like a low budget one, a low budget birthday
01:54party.
01:54That was in the beginning of the beginning.
01:56I like the IE birthday party, because I got a pure low budget.
01:58Yeah, in the beginning of the beginning, that's how it was, like low budget, but...
02:02Most of the time.
02:02But yeah, towards the end, we used to contract two months ahead, remember?
02:06Well, yeah, but it was still low budget.
02:09The parties we would show up to, it was a little backyard party, half a carpa, you know?
02:15Yeah.
02:15Sometimes I need a carpa inside a house.
02:18You know what a hood party is?
02:20My hood party is inside a house.
02:21The kids sleeping on the chair.
02:23They got the drunk people in the living room, the family sleeping inside the room.
02:27The food's inside the kitchen.
02:29Yeah.
02:30You know, you don't see no one over here renting like a hall.
02:34Here and there, hay gente que si trae aca, pues no nos tocaba esos clientes.
02:37Yeah, I know.
02:38No tanto.
02:40We didn't have a good enough sound system for those venues.
02:42Yeah, we weren't, we weren't, yeah, we didn't have the best sound system, the best
02:45lights, so we did some cool, we did like two quinceañeras nos tocó, right?
02:49But like one, I think I remember Laneta, to be honest, one, huh?
02:53One.
02:54One quinceañera.
02:55The one with the blue dress?
02:56That one?
02:57When we went to go to, after that we had a privada in LA, remember?
03:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:01She was wearing a blue dress, that's why I remember it.
03:03I don't remember the dress.
03:04In the backyard, right?
03:06Here Quinceañera was in the backyard.
03:07In a salon in Victorville up there, you guys remember that?
03:10Oh yeah, I remember, I remember, I remember, I remember, yeah, yeah.
03:12We went straight to LA after.
03:14Yeah, we went with Tarra de Camofus after.
03:17Exactly.
03:18Remember.
03:18So, Jesus and I, we were always kicking it, even though there was no privada scheduled.
03:22We would just be together, like, outside, just waiting for that car, and Pelón would
03:28show up on his own, Samolón would go pick him up, he didn't have him a whip.
03:32Yeah.
03:33Samolón just learned how to drive, like, last year.
03:34Come on, cheers.
03:36Yeah, he just learned.
03:37Wait, you got your license already, or no?
03:39No.
03:40No?
03:41He has chauffeur, he has chauffeur.
03:43No, I have chauffeur, but I do drive myself, yeah.
03:46Con la de Dios, con la licencia de Dios.
03:47No, and then look it, I'm trying to remember the first whip, I think it was in the Prius,
03:51no?
04:17The Prius.
04:18Hoste, que coole.
04:19It was the first time I met him?
04:20Like, nah, not the first time.
04:21Literally, like, the second day we had, like, the second week we were like, we want to go
04:24eat?
04:24He didn't borrow the car?
04:26No, no, no, no, no.
04:26Watch out, watch out.
04:27The second car.
04:28The food was parked.
04:29It was dark.
04:30And we were like, we stopped for something, and this food reverses into the car.
04:34Bote, güey.
04:35Onto a parked car.
04:36And then I got a Prius once, I remember in the Prius we would roll around, so I remember
04:39with the two speakers in the Prius, all the mic stands.
04:44Amontonados.
04:44Right there, like, last time my boys, I got mad in Miami, I told them to pack the luggages,
04:51and now, my guy is bien fresita, like, they can't put a luggage on their lap.
04:56Back in there, I put the speaker, the f***ing mic stand, I would drive with the mic stand
05:00right here.
05:01Y ahorita se creen bien, eh, los cabronas?
05:03Bien acá.
05:10Everything covers.
05:12Everything covers.
05:13To the end, kind of, when we started writing our music, when I started writing the songs,
05:17to be honest, four songs later is when we blow up.
05:21So, it was fast, like, but as soon as I started writing, I think, like, what, like, a couple
05:25months later, huh?
05:26Yeah, but it was-
05:26Six months later.
05:27We did a couple of privadas, because I remember Jesus told me, he said, uh, hey, he pulled
05:33me to the side.
05:35If they ask you if they know the song, tell them, no, we're gonna play our own s***.
05:38We're not gonna play covers, we're not gonna play our own s***.
05:40If they want to hire us, they're gonna hire us for who, for what we do.
05:43I'm like, I'm like, alright.
05:46I guess.
05:46Chris would get mad because he's like, we're gonna lose chamba.
05:48Yeah.
05:49I was like, we're gonna lose clients like that.
05:51Nah, we're gonna keep the good clients.
05:53He's like, we're gonna f***ing play what we got.
05:55And it was a couple of privadas that we did that, but we blew up a couple months after.
05:58A little bit of a while.
06:02A little bit of a while.
06:05A little bit of a while.
06:05A little bit of a while.
06:05I would love you.
06:05I have this memory one time when, um.
06:08When I told Jesus, I'm like, hey, it's time to get some, you know?
06:12Some trajes.
06:13Let's, let's look nice.
06:14He said, um.
06:16He said, for what?
06:17He's like, we do this music.
06:18we gotta make sure we got our music on live because i remember i was telling i remember
06:23one time i told you it's time for us to get some trajes like let's look so we can look
06:28better more
06:28more presentable when we show up to a nice party and you told me you said for what like why
06:35we're
06:35gonna show up looking all like like we're badass and we don't even like we can't we can't play that
06:42good first we gotta get the get the music locked down first and and then we could that's crazy
06:50it's crazy you remember that i remember that now yeah and then imagine how we would look now there's
06:55groups that show up all good and they start playing they're wow you're like yeah yeah and then but you
06:59ended you ended it by saying and plus i don't like that i don't like that we gotta be ourselves
07:05we
07:06always knew we were gonna be turned up always we always knew it so that was already for sure like
07:14you know i i've always told these guys you know i probably i think they all believed it kind of
07:21but
07:22i think i would give them animals of believing it more because the way i believed it was on a
07:27different level i would just tell them like once i'm gonna i'll just remember one we pulled up to a
07:31flyer party and we we sang a cover that was not heard in the united states it was a cover
07:37from
07:37mexico uno personal by chayin rubio and we made it blow up in the eye it started blowing up and
07:44we
07:44went to a party where like everybody pulls out their phones to record us you remember and we'd like to
