Transcript

00:00Hey guys, not good for the pipes.

00:03Clog up your bus.

00:04That's what she said.

00:05I always have a box of cheese that's in my bunk.

00:08God, I hope they pay you today.

00:40Hello! Welcome to the Heffron Drive Bus, presented in HD.

00:46I don't know.

00:48Alright guys, so this is it.

00:52That's about it, really. I'm just kidding.

00:54There's a whole bunch of other bus to see.

00:57Automatic doors, pretty cool, I think.

01:01Alright, everybody say hello to Dustin.

01:04Relax and eat some cookies.

01:05Hello world!

01:07How are the cookies?

01:08They're actually really good.

01:09So the story behind these cookies is,

01:12Bill, or AKA Space Bar, AKA Space Bat.

01:16He's got a lot of different names.

01:17He's a very interesting guy.

01:18His parents live in the area,

01:20and he'd been talking about cookies for a while.

01:25So as a gift to me, he asked me what kind of cookies I like.

01:29I got sugar cookies.

01:30So I got a whole tin full of sugar cookies.

01:33Homemade.

01:34All of these are homemade.

01:35There's like seven different kinds.

01:36I can't believe she's talking about this.

01:36Yeah, there's like this fudge one that's pretty good too.

01:39Pretty incredible.

01:40And of course, being that it's close to the holiday season,

01:43gotta have a Christmas treat.

01:46Gotta have a Christmas treat.

01:48But that's fine, you know.

01:49That's what happens when you buy one of these tipping trees.

01:54They're notorious for tipping.

01:56That's a good treat.

01:57Yeah, but actually, funny story, that's from a fan, isn't it?

01:59It is, actually.

02:01No, this is from a fan.

02:02This right here is from a fan.

02:04Oh.

02:04But so is a tree.

02:05Yeah, the tree was from a fan.

02:06And she also gave us these, those like Christmas poppers.

02:10Which we used for multiple things.

02:12Right.

02:14This is from Lacey Drogmeyer.

02:19And she's at little underscore ks underscore rusher.

02:22And she gave me this note for me.

02:25But the tree is from a fan who thought it was necessary

02:27that we have a tree on the bus, which, honestly, I agree.

02:30Because I usually have one at home.

02:32But since we're not there right now, I don't have the time.

02:35What else we got?

02:36This is interesting right here.

02:39Just a, let it, oh.

02:42That's weird.

02:43I don't know what that's doing on the bus.

02:53Anyway, about that.

02:54So here's what else we got.

02:55Dustin's got his computer set up.

02:57Working on some tunage.

02:58Working on some tunes.

02:59Using my headphones.

03:00You know, my headphones using the Beats.

03:01Right.

03:02Gotta use the Beats.

03:03Everybody walks around with those.

03:04Not sponsored, unfortunately.

03:06But everybody has them anyway.

03:08This is cool.

03:09Another gift from a fan.

03:11So I have a sugar skull tattoo on my right arm.

03:15That is pretty much, let me see if I can get it out of that.

03:19Take it off.

03:20Take it off.

03:21So that is a, this is a handmade representation of my skull tattoo, which I thought was pretty

03:28cool.

03:29I had to keep it.

03:29You get all kinds of gifts.

03:31I've got a, I watch a lot of comedies and I tweeted something about one of my favorite

03:35shows being Impractical Jokers.

03:37So fan got me the first season on DVD.

03:40You know, I really need a new dresser at home.

03:43Maybe I can tweet, I need a new dresser.

03:46And then the next thing you know, Amazon Prime.

03:49I could use a new car too.

03:51Preferably a Ferrari.

03:52I don't think they're going to get you a car.

03:55Well, here's to wish it.

03:56Moving on, something else to allocate.

03:58Well, the candles.

04:01Long story short, there's 10 guys on this bus.

04:04So at times, it gets pretty musty.

04:09Is that a good word?

04:11Just outright stinky.

04:12Outright stinky.

04:13Stinky as hell.

04:15Sass.

04:16Just sa.

04:17S-a-h.

04:18S-a-h.

04:19Stinky as hell.

04:20S-a-h.

04:21It's an abbreviation.

04:22So I got these candles, and I'm a big stickler about candles actually.

04:25Can't speak for those, but these two right here.

04:28I specifically like to get soy wax just because when it's finished, you can just rinse it

04:32out and then you have this thing.

04:35Hey, cool cup.

04:36I mean, when the candle's done with, that's a sippin' goblet if I've ever seen one.

04:42So, I don't know.

04:44That's just my thinking.

04:45And what else we got?

04:48So we got that candle.

04:49That's important.

04:51We got this one.

04:51Just got these today here in Chicago.

04:54They make the bus smell really nice, but let's see what we got up around here.

04:58Well, uh, we like to try and eat as healthy as we can.

05:01So let me just show you the difference.

05:03So this is my section up here, okay?

05:06Sugar-free expect, I don't even know what that is.

05:08That's like mucinex, but all natural, right?

05:11This isn't supposed to be here.

05:12I don't know what that's doing.

05:13This is in this section.

05:14So up here I got throat comfort, honey lemon, yolky.

05:21Got some whole-caught tuna, because you don't want to get that netted stuff that causes a lot of problems.

05:27Right, kids?

05:27Right.

05:28Okay.

05:29And got some chicken tortilla soup, 365.

05:33Everyone loves whole foods.

05:35My favorite, though, is Pacific Foods.

05:41Pacific Foods.

05:43All natural chicken noodle soup.

05:45It's delicious.

05:46Now, down here in my section, though.

05:48Let's check it out.

05:48I've got what I like to call comfort foods.

05:53Because sometimes I don't like all this organic stuff.

05:56So I have here some Campbell's home-style, Mexican-style chicken tortilla soup.

06:01That is microwavable, and it is tasty.

06:03To note, though, no preservatives added, so there were...

06:05See, I'm stepping it up a little bit.

06:08I'm not going to show you what this is, because that's kind of disgusting.

06:10But I also have some Campbell's chunky baked potato with cheddar and bacon bits,

06:15made with fresh potato soup.

06:17$2.39 at Walmart.

06:19Steal.

06:21But the most important thing, of course, is a...

06:25A healthy supply of Cheez-Its.

06:27A healthy supply of Cheez-Its.

06:28Of all kinds.

06:28We have a mother load of Cheez-Its on this bus.

06:31And this just so happens to be Scrabble, the junior version.

06:37Not sure what the difference is, but they taste great.

06:40Something else to note in this cabinet is a healthy abundance of cups.

06:47Now, remember what I said about the candles earlier.

06:50This, believe it or not, was a candle, but now it's a sippin' cup.

06:56Right?

06:57And recently I got some mugs to drink coffee out of, because you have to distinguish your mug.

07:00You don't want anyone using your mug.

07:02So I got this mug.

07:05Something cool, earthy about it.

07:07I got another one.

07:08I've been eating soup out of this one.

07:10This is my soup mug.

07:13You couldn't tell we like soup around here.

07:15Yeah.

07:15We eat a lot of soup.

07:15Well, because it's easy.

07:16The microwave, you know.

07:17All that stuff.

07:19And everyone's got a cup up here.

07:20Oh.

07:21Which is good, because honestly there's a lot of coffee drink in this place.

07:24What else we got around here?

07:25Well, this has become a staple on this floor.

07:29And we have our George Foreman grill that our front of house guy, Chris, brought out for us.

07:35And so far I've made a ton of bacon, and we grilled some chicken.

07:41Made some chicken breast.

07:42Made a chicken sandwich.

07:44Yeah.

07:46Something to note about this is that there's no drip pan, as you can see.

07:51So we just take a plate, put it under there, and it drips.

07:54I actually heard recently that, what was it, Adventure Club.

08:00Josh was saying that Adventure Club doesn't use a drip pan.

08:03Oh yeah.

08:03They just drip it into the sink, which, hey guys, not good for the pipes.

08:09Clog up your bus.

08:10That's what she said.

08:12Anyway, so, note to self, use a drip pan.

08:16Especially when making bacon.

08:17And that's the great thing about a George Foreman.

08:19Fresh bacon on the bus, which everybody knows makes everybody happy.

08:24You can never go wrong with bacon.

08:26We got a toaster.

08:27Toaster.

08:28Hot water heater.

08:29Two kettle.

08:31This is for Vic.

08:32Vic is our security guy.

08:33Of course he has a muscle milk because you know he's the muscle.

08:37Now, oh, something about this bus.

08:39Drove me nuts for like, what, a week and a half, two weeks.

08:42So when you're on a bus, imagine you have the...

08:45Let's just do this real quick, okay?

08:46So this is my water.

08:48Mmm, mmm.

08:48So good.

08:49Tasty.

08:50Mmm, chug, chug, chug.

08:52Ooh, how was that?

08:53Good, I'm gonna throw this away now.

08:54Okay, throw it away.

08:56Being responsible.

08:57And recycling.

08:59Oh wait, that's not the trash can.

09:02Really frustrating.

09:04Because, on every single bus I've ever been on, this is always a trash can.

09:07So for a week straight, I would get up and do that same thing and just go...

09:13Oh my god.

09:15Here's where the trash can is.

09:21Really?

09:25I got it now.

09:26I got it now, thank you.

09:28Well first, of course, like any introduction to somebody's home...

09:33Oh, this is like, yeah, this is like the Cribs version.

09:35Yeah.

09:36They always show you what's in the fridge.

09:38Or if you can't, you know, a similar show like that.

09:42Here's what's in the fridge.

09:45Hot sauce, of course.

09:47More hot sauce.

09:48Hot sauce.

09:49Some balsamic.

09:53Just like to make my plug for Taco Bell.

09:55Something interesting, and it didn't really happen, I'm kind of disappointed.

09:58These are cascade pellet hops.

10:01So, everybody on this bus is of drinking age.

10:04We're all adults.

10:05And occasionally, we like to have a brew.

10:08As any adult should.

10:11So, one of our crew happens to be a brewmaster and was going to make homemade beer on the bus.

10:18Which I think was just exciting in general.

10:20Because there's been a lot of homemade stuff going on.

10:22Like turkey for Thanksgiving.

10:23Oh, Kendall made a turkey.

10:24Cooked on the bus in a turkey oven right there on the counter.

10:27And then, what else?

10:28We made a roast.

10:29Made a roast.

10:30So basically, we're saying we're homemade kind of guys, you know.

10:32So, Chris was going to make some beer, but it was really cold and it didn't really ever work out.

10:38What else we got?

10:40Jam.

10:42Oikos.

10:43Some three day old mac and cheese.

10:45Yep.

10:46We should probably chuck that soon.

10:47Not looking too dandy.

10:50Got some, oh, important blueberries.

10:54Oh, some hummus with the lid off.

10:57So, I'm going to go ahead and just...

10:59Hey, you found a trash can!

11:00Yeah, I got it.

11:02Some, uh, soggy lettuce.

11:04Always good.

11:05And, uh, that's pretty much it for over here.

11:08Let's, uh...

11:09Let's head on back.

11:10Yeah, come on.

11:14Well, it's really clean in here.

11:15As I'm sure you probably know, every bus has what they call a junk bunk.

11:20And, uh, this just so happens to be our junk bunk.

11:23Which is, it's nothing in it.

11:24It's, uh, yeah.

11:25No, there's nothing in it.

11:26We tried to make it look presentable, but let's face it.

11:29Let's just show you.

11:30Let's just show you this.

11:35Um...

11:35Alright, so we got, uh...

11:37Well...

11:38We got some Nerf gun boxes.

11:42Which I'm not quite sure when I'm...

11:44I don't know where that one went.

11:44I just, I just bought that and I don't know where it is.

11:46Oh, here's an...

11:47Oh, look at this.

11:48Still got another one.

11:49There's three in here.

11:50Oh, I've been causing havoc with this.

11:53Oh, yeah.

11:55This has been a...

11:55Have you got a dart anywhere?

12:03This is a frequent, uh, thing in the junk bunk is a lot of throwing people's stuff around.

12:09Oh, here we go.

12:11Got it.

12:14So...

12:16I picked this up because it looked really entertaining.

12:19And, uh, more entertaining than a Nerf gun because it does everything by itself.

12:23And I was like...

12:25You know...

12:26Getting pretty good at this.

12:27Actually, I'll show you real quick.

12:28So, let's see if we can get a bullseye here.

12:30Here we go.

12:30Ready?

12:35Bullseye!

12:37So, I've been causing a lot of problems with that on the bus.

12:39I've been shooting everybody.

12:41And I...

12:42I really don't think they like it.

12:44Sorry.

12:46Let's head on back to the junk bunk.

12:48Leave the bank!

12:49So, yeah.

12:50Anyway, that's the junk bunk.

12:51My...

12:51My bunk looks like a junk bunk because I'm...

12:54I was just trying to make it look clean for you guys.

12:56I'll...

12:56I'll eventually just sprawl everything out.

13:00Okay.

13:02Come on back.

13:03This is, uh...

13:04This is my bunk here.

13:06This is where the magic happens.

13:08And by magic, I mean, this is where I sleep.

13:10Alright, let's just...

13:11Let's just...

13:11Show this one.

13:12Oh, yeah!

13:15So, um...

13:16This is what Dustin wears when he gets up in the morning.

13:19So, I found this amazing onesie.

13:23And it's, uh...

13:28Michelangelo from the Ninja Turtles.

13:30I think it's pretty awesome if I say so myself.

13:32So...

13:32I would say embarrassing.

13:34I went to breakfast wearing that today.

13:38I...

13:38Didn't.

13:39He sat next to me.

13:40He's lying.

13:42So, anyway, yeah.

13:43Oh, wait.

13:43What else you got in here?

13:44Oh.

13:44Oh, my gosh.

13:45That's so weird.

13:47What is this?

13:48It's so crazy.

13:49What is this?

13:49I, uh...

13:51Why do you...

13:51Why do you sleep with a Heffron Drive pillow?

13:53You know, I just can't get enough of myself.

13:56And...

13:56Evidently not.

13:57The best thing to do is just sleep with myself.

13:59And, you know...

14:01Honestly...

14:01Pretty cool.

14:03It...

14:03It actually is really...

14:04Really cool.

14:05Because, uh...

14:06There's...

14:06Inside the bunks, there's an air-conditioning little bed that comes down.

14:09It keeps my pillow cool.

14:10Which is always important.

14:12As you should know.

14:13Oh!

14:14Can't forget this.

14:15I always have a box of cheese that's in my bunk.

14:18Oh, God.

14:18I hope they pay you one day.

14:20Okay.

14:21Uh...

14:22Nice in the bunks.

14:22Let's go check out the back.

14:25There's a pretty cool lounge back here.

14:27Oh.

14:30Uh...

14:31Uh...

14:31Hey, guys.

14:32It's a space bar.

14:33Aren't you supposed to be doing load-in right now, or...?

14:36What time is it?

14:38It's at the afternoon.

14:41Uh...

14:41Somebody else...

14:42Come on.

14:43No, no.

14:43Get to work.

14:43Here we go.

14:46Come on.

14:47This is what we deal with on a daily basis.

14:50So, this is the back lounge where, um...

14:53People lounge.

14:55And...

14:55Should be working.

14:57And...

14:57Look at that back here.

14:58Let's check it out.

14:59Could you hand me some of those Cheez-Its?

15:01Oh, yeah.

15:02We, uh...

15:02We have a mother load of Cheez-Its on the bus.

15:05Uh...

15:05This one says for Kendall and Dustin from Cali Mace.

15:09And space bar.

15:10Space bar.

15:11It doesn't say space bar anywhere on it, but you can have it.

15:13Mmm.

15:13Thanks, guys.

15:14We also have, uh...

15:15Come on.

15:15Get out.

15:15Go, go, go.

15:16Get to work.

15:18White cheddar.

15:19Just in case.

15:20Got a closet.

15:21Full of stuff.

15:22Yep.

15:23Let's see.

15:23We got, uh...

15:27Spare blankets.

15:29We got...

15:30Oh.

15:30Dustin was giving this...

15:31Fan gave you this, right?

15:32That's true.

15:33They did.

15:33Uh...

15:34Taco Bell...

15:34Crunchy taco...

15:35Taco dinner kit.

15:36I can't make it on the bus.

15:38We haven't figured out a way yet, but...

15:39What?

15:39What do you have to...

15:40Well, you have to grill up hamburger.

15:42Oh.

15:43Yeah.

15:43Oh, well...

15:44But as soon as I get home, I will.

15:46Too much for me, maybe.

15:47That, and then, uh...

15:48Cool thing about this, uh, particular couch.

15:51Uh, some buses have, like, a bed in the back.

15:54Like, a star lounge or whatever.

15:55Everyone's in bunks on this one, but...

15:57Cool thing about this is that...

15:59Dustin, it's already...

16:00It's already out.

16:01You want to demonstrate?

16:02Let me demonstrate to you the power of the...

16:04King 2000 bed.

16:14How are you feeling over there?

16:15Are you comfortable?

16:16Worth every penny.

16:19Duh!

16:20Yep.

16:21Done.

16:22We've also got, uh...

16:24This is important.

16:25Kindle's air filter.

16:27I brought this from home.

16:28I put this in my suitcase, actually, because I needed to have it.

16:30I'm not sure how much it actually helps, but it makes me feel better.

16:35We've been documenting the, uh, the tour.

16:38So I've got this case that has a bunch of GoPros in it.

16:42We've been filming things.

16:45GoPro Hero 3.

16:46And all over the bus there are, uh, apparatuses to attach those cameras with.

16:51Yes.

16:53Now, uh, we don't watch tons of TV.

16:56If we did, I would say...

16:58Movies and stuff like that.

17:00Oh!

17:00I don't know, I'm glad...

17:01If anyone ever noticed the, uh...

17:06Those aren't ours, they came with the bus.

17:08No!

17:10No!

17:11No sex whips and fur and handcuffs for us.

17:14You know what?

17:15Some fan out there is going, I gave that to them.

17:17Yep.

17:17So it's not our fault.

17:18Oh, I know!

17:18Something we got in here.

17:20Found this.

17:21This is, this is pretty cool.

17:22I actually brought with me a portable Super Nintendo with all the games.

17:29So, uh, got the, uh, the connector cable.

17:33You can hook it up to the TV.

17:35Got the chest mount for the GoPro.

17:38We got tons of GoPro stuff.

17:40Star Wars collection.

17:42Star Wars.

17:43Trash can.

17:46And, uh, an extra cooler.

17:48But, nothing really in there.

17:50Uh, let's see what else.

17:54Uh, oh, there was a problem in the beginning because there's a few bigger guys on the bus.

17:58Right?

17:58And, everybody wanted to have the middle or bottom bunk.

18:02Not the top.

18:03Which I personally don't, my bunk's like, not that high.

18:06But it's, still I have to jump up to get into it.

18:10So, uh, everybody picked these and then Vic, our security guy, came on the bus and he's

18:15a larger guy.

18:16And, um, was like, where's my bunk?

18:18And they were like, well, right here.

18:19And he was like, no it's not.

18:21And he's like, who's here?

18:23Or, wait, he sleeps here?

18:24Yeah, Vic's down here.

18:25And he was like, who's here?

18:26And our keyboard's like, I'm here.

18:28And he goes, is this your first tour?

18:29And he goes, yeah.

18:29He goes, you're sleeping up top.

18:31So you got the boot real quick.

18:33That was, that was squashed really quickly.

18:35No debate.

18:36Uh, this is my doing.

18:37You'd be amazed what gaff tape can do.

18:39Like I said, because things get so stinky, uh, I prefer to have things smell good.

18:43So I get one of these reed diffusers and just gaff tape the hell out of it to the wall.

18:48And the good thing about gaff tape is, normally, it shouldn't leave much of a tape residue.

18:55Oh, also something to note about my bunk is the, uh, I have a portable air purifier right

19:01here that is also gaffed to all get out.

19:05I really hope it doesn't ruin the finish.

19:09Well, it pretty much wraps up everything.

19:11Oh, and I can't forget the loo.

19:15This bus luckily has a shower, which I took one earlier today.

19:19It's really nice.

19:20And I install, as every time I go on tour, my filter for the water, because you never

19:28know where that water's coming from.

19:30I can tell you where it's coming from.

19:31A truck stop in Illinois somewhere.

19:33Which is exactly why you want to filter it.

19:35There's a grinder on the bus, so let's just say, you can go.

19:39If you've got the flow, you can go.

19:42And that's what we're lucky to have on this bus, because not all buses have that.

19:45A lot of times there's a no solids rule, if you know what I'm saying.

19:48Well guys, I think it's been really fun.

19:51We've pretty much showed you everything that's on the bus.

19:53I think so.

19:55Basically what you've learned is that there's a lot of Cheez-Its, candles, and dudes.

20:01And junk.

20:02And junk.

20:03Dudes and their junk.

20:04And you know what?

20:05Feels lived in.

20:06Feels like home.

20:07So I hope you guys had a good time.

20:08But unfortunately, we need to enjoy our space now.

20:11So if you don't mind, yeah, go ahead and open up that door and just skedaddle.

20:15See ya!

20:21Woo!

20:22Alright!

20:24Don't before the subscribe show!

20:26Roll all the other stuff!

20:27High light.....

20:27الا place is good!!!
