00:00Lesbians eat what?
00:02I'm not much into clothes or fashion, but this is something special to me
00:06I've been sharing this suitcase with my girlfriend on the tour and she packs like a psychopath
00:37What's up, I'm Josh from Bad Flower and welcome to the back of our bus
00:41The tour we're on right now is supporting our record No Place Like Home
00:45We're here in Chicago?
00:47Chicago, yeah
00:49This is like the prized possession and this is brand new
00:52So a couple tours ago
00:54We had a fan in Europe who showed up to a meet and greet wearing
00:59Overalls like this that were all decked out with our first record stuff and our first EP stuff
01:04There were all these patches and I just thought she looked so cool
01:06And I told her how cool I thought she looked
01:08She ended up showing up to the next show and she washed the overalls and she gave them to me
01:13And for the, I don't know, I want to say for the next like year
01:16I didn't wear anything else on stage but these overalls
01:19It was like my uniform
01:20So then eventually I wore them out, they got a little too messed up
01:23Recently I saw her again in the UK and she offered to make another set of overalls
01:28To support the new record and so now we're looking at the piece
01:31This is the real thing
01:33And each one of these patches represents some
01:36Like this is the snuff single cover
01:40Obviously just Bad Flower and Stitches
01:42What else do we got here?
01:45Another Bad Flower logo there
01:47This is what you deserve
01:49Pause for our song Pause
01:51There's more stuff under here too, I just have my
01:55This is how the world continues
01:58The I from Temper
02:02Just Butterfly for the song Butterfly
02:04Just like really creative stuff
02:05She just does amazing work
02:06Her name is Natalie
02:07Oh even the back too
02:08We got a hammer for Swingin' Hammer
02:13Everybody go ah
02:15Bananas
02:16Yeah it's like my favorite thing ever
02:18So I'm not much into clothes or fashion
02:21But this is something special to me
02:23And the first set of overalls that she made are really special
02:25And those are really special
02:26Okay since we're here look at this
02:28I have the old overalls that she gave me
02:32And you can see they're like super faded and super beat up
02:37But like I gotta
02:38I gotta put them up
02:40Hang on this is so cool
02:42So this was
02:43Okay I'm sick
02:44Johnny wants to fight
02:45I let the band play 30 all that stuff
02:49That's the old model
02:51And then we got the new model
02:54It's pretty cool
02:56I think
02:58Always the overalls
02:59Always a beanie
03:00It used to be the overalls with the pink beanie
03:02Now we're doing orange beanies
03:04So overalls orange beanie
03:05And that's it
03:06And the boots
03:07The vegan
03:09These are vegan Doc Martens
03:12It's all I wear
03:13That's it
03:13So this is a company called Cult of Individuality
03:16That have always been very supportive of our band
03:19So they give us a lot of like just daily stuff
03:21Most of the stuff that I wear either on stage
03:23If it's not that
03:25It's their stuff like this
03:26Their jeans
03:26This is their shirt
03:28This I got
03:30Because we had this UK tour coming up
03:32And I was like
03:32Ooh I want to look all fucking
03:34European and cool
03:35And do the trench coat thing
03:37So this is just an Abercrombie and Fitch
03:39Little deal
03:41And I just like it
03:42It's easy to put on
03:43It's like it's warm
03:44So if I'm not wearing the overalls
03:49Which I normally am
03:50It's going to be some kind of a wacky tank top usually
03:55It's often times that fans give me
03:57This one says
03:57Lesbians eat what?
04:01That's a pretty good one
04:02Those are just sweatpants
04:03This is a good one too
04:05This is a nice
04:07I love this
04:12Just a solid tee that really represents who I am
04:15You know as a person
04:17I've never worn that
04:18It's still got its tag on it
04:19But that's more cult of individuality stuff
04:21That I really like
04:22That he sent over
04:22That I haven't worn yet
04:24But I will actually
04:25I really like that one
04:27What else have we got?
04:29This is like
04:31This one just won't die
04:32You know how you have certain clothes
04:33It just won't die
04:34Like
04:34I don't know where this came from
04:37And it has this like tail on it
04:40It's really long in the back
04:42And it's stupid
04:43And I always end up tucking the back in
04:45But I like how the front of it fits on me
04:48And so I just always wear this
04:49I love this thing
04:53Alright what else?
04:54We got some classics
04:55More cults of individuality stuff
04:58Oh wait is that what this is?
05:01No what is
05:01Oh no this is Point North
05:02This is the band that we're on tour with right now
05:04This is their merch
05:05So I like to take band merch too
05:06And just cut off the sleeves
05:07Make it like a muscle tee
05:08Even though I don't have muscles
05:10It's just a good look
05:11You know
05:11To do the muscle tee
05:13So that's Point North
05:15Actually I might wear that tonight
05:16That's a good one tonight
05:18What else we got?
05:20Oh that's just
05:20These are fan gifts
05:21Sorry that was me and my dog
05:22That's not an outfit
05:23But this is just a very sweet picture
05:25That a fan gave to me
05:30This one
05:32This is a great wintery thing
05:34That I always get complimented on
05:36Also cults of individuality
05:39But this is my like Christmas sweater
05:42I don't know why
05:42But this works for like winter shows
05:44I always
05:45I wear this on stage a lot
05:48What else we got?
05:51And then some basic pants
05:53You know
05:53Some old navy slim fits
05:55Some swim trunks
05:57I'm not going to swim on this tour
05:58But they're here
05:59Well okay
06:01Normally I'm really organized
06:03With the way that I pack
06:04Like all of my shirts
06:05Go right here
06:06All the pants go right here
06:07All the whatever goes right here
06:09And then I strap it all up
06:10But I've been sharing this suitcase
06:12With my girlfriend on the tour
06:13And she packs like a psychopath
06:15And so I tried
06:17To keep it separate
06:18Where her stuff
06:19Goes on this side
06:22Oh and now her stuff
06:23Looks all nice
06:24Now I'm eating my own words
06:26Because her stuff
06:26Looks really good
06:29Well actually these are the
06:31This is the Adidas stuff
06:32She was looking for
06:33Anyway
06:34As you can see
06:34This is the girl side
06:37And then this is the guy side
06:38You know
06:39Because you live on a bus
06:40You want to save space
06:40You don't need two extra bags
06:43Anyway
06:44It's been a little bit difficult
06:45Us having to share the bag
06:46I'm a little less organized
06:47Than I'd like to be
06:48But also
06:49You usually do the big bag
06:50And then you have your go bag
06:51So you'd have the big bag
06:52And then either a backpack
06:54Or something smaller
06:54That you carry
06:55Like okay
06:56I want three options
06:56For shirts tonight
06:58And then you
06:58Throw those shirts in there
07:00That's that
07:01I've got boots
07:02And I've got
07:02Oh there's more clothes here too
07:04Oh there's stuff I'm missing man
07:05See
07:06Look at this
07:08This says something in Russian
07:09I don't know what it means
07:10But it's cute
07:11Um
07:14This is my girlfriend's merch
07:18I should wear this tonight too
07:19This is her
07:21And then
07:23Olive Vox
07:24The other band that we're out with tonight
07:26Was there
07:26See
07:26I knew I was missing a bunch of stuff
07:30I hate everything about you
07:31From when we toured with
07:32Three Days Grace
07:33They gave us one of their shirts
07:35So I was wearing that for a little bit
07:39Some Babflower shirts
07:40Another Babflower shirt
07:42Turned into hoodies
07:44And then getting to the
07:46Real stuff
07:48Now I got
07:52Where is it
07:53So this would be like the go bag
07:55I have like socks and whatever
07:57Bullshit in there
08:01These
08:02When I go out skateboarding
08:04Just a pair of Converse
08:07That's it
08:08And then some sandals
08:11For the most part
08:11Yeah
08:12The Doc Martens
08:13Like never leave my feet
08:14I'll wear this one quite a bit
08:16Sometimes I
08:17Actually I did a full tour
08:18Where I told fans
08:19If you come to meet and greet
08:20The VIP
08:22Bring me anything
08:23You want me to wear on stage
08:23That night
08:24And I'll wear it
08:24And that was because
08:25I didn't feel like packing a bag
08:27So I did a full tour
08:28Where I only wore what fans gave me
08:29And I ended up with a lot of fun things
08:31Like the lesbian shirt
08:32And call me daddy
08:33And all these
08:33Yeah
08:34Day to day
08:35To stage
08:36No I wear the same stuff
08:37Pretty much
08:38Maybe like less of the tank tops
08:40The tank top feels like
08:41I'm about to go on stage
08:42Usually just to make a boutique
08:43Pants are the same
08:44Honestly
08:45I can wear the same pants
08:46If they don't get too dirty
08:47I'll wear the same pants
08:48The whole tour
08:48I don't give a shit
08:49If they start to stink
08:50Then I'll change them
08:51But like
08:51It doesn't matter
08:53I never accessorize
08:54Unless fans give us things
08:56Sometimes they give us bracelets
08:57And things like that
08:57And we'll put that on
08:58But
08:58No watches
09:00No
09:00None of that
09:00Just a beanie
09:01Beanie or a hat
09:03If I don't feel like doing my hair
09:05And that's it
09:06Well thank you so much
09:07For listening to what I have to say
09:09About fashion
09:10Because I'm a fashionista
09:11I care so much
09:12So much about what I wear
09:13And thank you for watching
09:14And please keep listening to our music
09:16And we love you
09:16And goodbye
09:43Outro music
