00:00We have to add it to the van every time before we start driving because we have a leak.

00:04And now Justin's wearing a hat.

00:05It's my thinking cat.

00:06Yeah, he's thinking.

00:08It was falling down.

00:09Yeah.

00:09And then I ripped it off.

00:10Yeah.

00:11And then that's what was left.

00:40Hey guys, I'm Hannah with the Sewing Club.

00:42I'm Justin.

00:43With the Sewing Club.

00:44With the Sewing Club.

00:46We're with the van.

00:48This is our van.

00:49She doesn't have a name, but she does say Jesus Only on the side.

00:54It was a church van, so you can call this phone number.

00:57Actually, I don't know if that calls anything, but we could try later.

01:02We're on tour with Choke Cherry right now.

01:04It's been almost a month.

01:06Yeah, almost a month.

01:07We're in Chicago right now.

01:09Love Chicago.

01:10You know, we were just in Columbus, Ohio.

01:12Columbus was great.

01:13Chicago's better.

01:14Yep.

01:14Tate.

01:15Yep.

01:16And yeah, it's been awesome.

01:18This van has been like kind of holding it together.

01:21It's been good.

01:22For the most part.

01:22Transmission's a little iffy.

01:23Yeah, it does like turn off when we go up a hill, but you know, we made it.

01:27Let's hop on in.

01:29It's really tall, and I'm short, so I'm going to jump in.

01:34So I actually drive the least, so it's funny that I'm sitting in the front seat, but Stephen

01:38in the back drives the most, I would say, but all the guys kind of try to swap every

01:44so often, and then I drive when everyone's like really tired.

01:48Would you say that's true?

01:50Yeah, that's very true.

01:51Yes.

01:53That's very true.

01:54The title of the van is in Stephen's name, so when things get like really iffy, it's

01:58kind of like, yeah, Stephen, you might as well drive it, so it's your fault if something

02:01happens.

02:03Yeah, that's pretty much true.

02:05We've got pretty good decorations up here.

02:08We've got this little dinosaur.

02:10We got a, we almost got a speeding ticket today.

02:14I was driving, and they just gave me a warning, but Stephen wasn't wearing his seatbelt.

02:20He was sitting here, and they gave him a ticket.

02:22They gave him a ticket.

02:23So this is a little hood ornament we picked up today.

02:26Yes.

02:27We've got our Wi-Fi router, and yeah, that's it.

02:31That's pretty much it.

02:32Yeah, we got this guy here.

02:33It's a GPS.

02:34It's like a CarPlay thing.

02:36Yeah, we don't have a rear view mirror, but you can't really see back there anyways because

02:41the van's so long, so this has like a backup camera, which has been nice, but it is like

02:47every time you turn the lights on, it goes to the camera, and then you have to like adjust

02:50it like every time, so it has its quirks, but it works.

02:55Yeah, it does a job.

02:57It is driver picks, and you plug into this, and then you work the old Kenwood here.

03:03Yeah.

03:04What have you been listening to?

03:05Today is a lot of old soul, R&B, Chief Keef when we rolled into town.

03:10Yeah.

03:11When Zach drives, it's a lot of podcasts.

03:14Yeah.

03:14When Stephen drives, it's a lot of, you know, anything from metal to hardcore to math rock.

03:21Yeah.

03:21When Hannah drives, it's also podcasting to Amy.

03:24Oh, Amy Poehler.

03:26Love that girl.

03:26Shout out.

03:27We've been hearing a lot of her voice.

03:28Yeah.

03:31In my dreams, I'll be hearing Amy.

03:33Yeah.

03:34Yeah.

03:34So we have Stephen and Zach here in the back, and usually I would say this is Justin's like

03:42lay-down seat.

03:43That's Zach's, and then Stephen's driving, and I'm in front.

03:47That's like our typical-

03:48That's the typical vibe.

03:49Layout and vibe.

03:51Yeah.

03:51And we also have a cooler up here.

03:55We had thought about taking it out because we weren't using it, but now it's full of our

03:59rider stuff.

04:00So we got Dave's bread, Gatorade, Peeta chips, turkey, bottle of water.

04:10What's that?

04:10Blueberries.

04:12Yeah.

04:12Just pretty much anything that's on our rider.

04:14Yeah.

04:14They love a berry.

04:15So, yeah.

04:17Dig in, guys.

04:18Save that for later.

04:20Yeah.

04:20Save that for later.

04:21Popcorn.

04:21That's a big one.

04:22We did spill it all over the floor earlier today.

04:25Not bad.

04:25Still got some crumbs on there.

04:27Take accountability.

04:29Yeah.

04:29And then we just always constantly have cases and cases and cases of water.

04:34And then Stephen can talk about the ceiling because he did that.

04:37Yeah, so it was falling down and then I ripped it off and then that's what was left, you

04:44know, and I was trying to rush before tour and make it happen.

04:47I got that done.

04:48Yeah.

04:49But I'm still peeling it off while we're driving.

04:53So, like, it's a work in progress, you know?

04:55Yeah.

04:56So if it's, like, really quiet, you'll just feel, like, a scratching sound.

05:00I actually don't know what that is.

05:02What the?

05:02In case I need to get out.

05:03Safety vest, you know, middle of the night.

05:06Middle of the night.

05:06Work on the van.

05:07Yeah.

05:08You know, our van's been having problems, so we probably will use that.

05:11Safety first.

05:12Safety first.

05:12At some point, yeah.

05:13Got to see them.

05:15He's going to be out there.

05:15Yeah, got to see them.

05:17And then we also got this power bank.

05:20It's been nice.

05:20We kind of, like, can charge all of our stuff from it.

05:23Yeah.

05:23Our alternator's, like, too small, so we can't actually charge, like, everything we need to

05:29from the van.

05:30So we have this.

05:32And it's been cool.

05:32We actually used this at a gig to plug in Justin's guitar because it had a grounding

05:36issue, so this has been on stage.

05:38Seamless.

05:39Yeah.

05:39And now Justin's wearing a hat.

05:41It's my thinking cat.

05:42Yeah.

05:42He's thinking.

05:45So on a long drive, which we've had many, I would say Stephen and I, if Stephen's not

05:51driving, he's working.

05:52He works as a construction estimator.

05:56And then I work in artist management, so I'm taking phone calls and emails and telling

06:01all the guys to turn their shit down when I get a call.

06:04And then Justin's usually sleeping, I would say, if he's not driving.

06:08And then Zach, I feel like you're always listening to something with your headphones on.

06:11Listening or, like, doing something on the computer.

06:13Yeah.

06:14Yeah.

06:14We kind of try to, like, stay busy, which is why we have the Wi-Fi, which has been nice.

06:19But that's kind of the mode, is that.

06:22And then someone gets tired and we switch drivers.

06:25That's kind of how it goes.

06:26This is the Jesus Only Tabernacle.

06:29They're going to go in and set up our stuff on stage.

06:32Jesus Only Tabernacle, that's, Stephen bought it from a guy on Facebook Marketplace.

06:36It was only, like, six grand, which for a van is, like, pretty cheap.

06:40It had, like, 60,000 miles on it, even though it's a 98, which is kind of cool.

06:45I've never tried to call this phone number.

06:47I kind of want to.

06:49So, we'll update you in the comments if we call the number and see what they said.

06:52Or you can call it, maybe.

06:53Maybe don't.

06:54I don't know.

06:55And then here's the back.

06:58I have this Yellowstone sticker.

07:02Let's open it up.

07:03I actually don't know what's in the back, so we'll see.

07:05I've already unloaded for the show.

07:07So, if you're kind of learning, Stephen kind of is our guy for a lot of the van stuff in

07:12general.

07:13I would say, like, Justin and Stephen kind of Tetris unloaded.

07:16I'll usually do the Slavic squat in here.

07:18Yeah.

07:20Like this.

07:21Like so.

07:21Like a catcher.

07:22Like so.

07:23And I'll bring it in.

07:24Yep.

07:24And it's like a conveyor belt system.

07:27Yeah.

07:27We all help.

07:27It just depends on what we're all doing at the end of the show.

07:30Yeah.

07:31But usually it's gear on the left, luggage on the right.

07:34Today it looks kind of weird because we packed weird last night.

07:37Yeah.

07:38And we also have this because we have to add it to the van every time before we start driving

07:43because we have a leak.

07:45So.

07:45It's coming out the radiator.

07:46Yeah.

07:47So.

07:47She's bleeding.

07:48Yeah.

07:48She's bleeding.

07:48But we have this and we'll probably buy more.

07:51Yep.

07:52Sewing Club.

07:52That's our name.

07:53The Sewing Club.

07:54On Instagram it's Sewing Club.

07:56And we have an album coming out in the spring via Born Losers out in Philly, which we're excited

08:02about.

08:03And we're just finishing up this tour at Choke Cherry and then going home for Christmas.

08:08And next year's going to be a big year of new music and shows and the whole thing.

08:13So follow us and see what's coming up.
