00:00I just like sit on the couch
00:02Enjoy a message from Lucas
00:05Everybody gets a hammer in their bunk in case of night terrors
00:08You go three just like that right through the rings. That's crazy. Did you see that?
00:30Oh
00:45Hey, come on in
00:48You know how to close those doors a lot of people don't know how to do that like every time
00:52our parents come through
00:53We have to like help they get stuck right here
00:55I'm so glad you could actually come back and see us like outside of a van
01:00You know what I mean? It's like in a van we were living in squalor. There was no air conditioning
01:05It was like leaking in the ceiling and stuff. Then you came back when we had a bandwagon and
01:11Now it's time for the bus the natural evolution
01:15And we stayed exactly the same
01:17No better no worse
01:20We are two-thirds of the band water parks
01:23Sixty-six point six six six six six six six six six six six percent of that band
01:29We are out on the prowler tour right now
01:31We just put out any minute now. So go listen to that
01:36Heart attack man and Winona fighter just joined the tour today. It's gonna be a good one. So we just
01:41kind of keep
01:43Messages of Lucas makes us a new one every morning. This is Lucas say hi
01:51These are vinyl I like to you know draw on some of those, you know, I mean I'll send in
01:56like
01:57five or ten of those each show
02:01Let's see some of the drawers have been kind of stuck
02:06Okay, so this one is where we keep
02:10Snacks this is like the hot dog snack drawer
02:13Um, it's kind of hard to eat right on the road, but
02:18We learned that there are seven grams of protein in every hot dog and so as long as we eat
02:26Five to seven of those a day. We're actually getting like
02:31Almost half the protein you're supposed to have
02:35Would you like one?
02:37Okay, well you mean to heat it up or you just want it raw?
02:43Let's see what else we got
02:46We're playing hammers earlier. This is Jeff. He's finishing signing posters. Oh
02:55Yeah
02:56Someone gave us this a couple days ago. It looks like Macaulay Culkin dressed as me
03:02But I love it. Um
03:04Midi keyboard here because you know
03:06Additional production for the album on like you know off days and stuff when we have time
03:11Um, let me see. Let me jump right in here real quick. I
03:16Have um, I drink a lot of throat coat, you know helps and also arnica tea because it's good for
03:22inflammation
03:23Um
03:24Also these guys I like, you know suck on these
03:31It's always good to have extra soy sauce because I I don't know like feel like reference that restaurants don't
03:37bring it often
03:39Um some like
03:41Calm things and some like liquid IV type stuff
03:45Actually, I was so prepared for this tour like I had like a giant duffel bag that I just filled
03:51with like everything
03:52I could need just in case because sometimes you learn that things are like regional or like you can't really
03:56order these very quickly
03:59usually
04:00Um, so I just wanted to roll up prepared
04:03Um, I got this stuff right here
04:06It's like uh-uh pretty good
04:09Um, I have this big cigar. I've never smoked, but it just helps me think at night or like calm
04:16down just to be like
04:19You know what I mean? I just like sit on the couch
04:22enjoy a message
04:24like this
04:24Okay
04:27on to
04:30snacks
04:32protein's important
04:34we keep
04:36food in here
04:37um
04:41again like seven grams of protein and the bread is good because like you don't want to like overeat before
04:47a show, but you do want some carbs in your system
04:49otherwise
04:51You get like super lightheaded like there've been times
04:53I've almost passed out at shows like the worst was probably
04:57um
04:58Once in iowa. What city was it?
05:01iowa city
05:02iowa city
05:02classic
05:04uh
05:04where I was like actually seeing stars and stuff because I forgot to have my proteins and my carbs
05:09And same with there was like an attic in australia. I believe it was adelaide. I could be wrong about
05:15that. Don't quote me
05:16but um
05:20Our photographer has lost like three teeth on this tour
05:23um
05:24But anyway all that to say that's why these are important. We get a lot of these on the rider
05:30um
05:32Just because you know, there's a lot to do during the day. We have to like sign a bunch of
05:34stuff
05:34We got meet greets. There's like sound check whatever other like interview things or press or like radio things like
05:40We just it's good to have these on the go clearly somebody was busy earlier
05:45um
05:46Oh my god this one got overcooked
05:48You ever overcook a hot dog. This is this mic is good, right?
05:54Can you hear that?
05:57Added in post so weights is usually what we've been using for training before
06:03uh
06:04We use these
06:07So
06:09We do a lot of work and obviously
06:11Hammers are like the best tool for work. We've also made up some games with it. I'm really sad this
06:17tour
06:17We have way less hammers than the other tours
06:21Because I won last time I get the blue. Okay, so check this out. Can you see it? Okay?
06:29Wait, was it like this last time? Is that how we left it?
06:31Yeah
06:31Okay
06:34Go
06:37Go
06:38Go
06:49um let's check out the rest
06:54I think we have more snacks
06:58some of these are legit like locked
07:00Daryl has like hella snacks he won't let us touch them
07:04um okay so obviously a few more hot dogs
07:08the doctor has said five to seven
07:11you go to a doctor we got health insurance now
07:17mind if I make a dog
07:21this one got crunchy
