Transcript
00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat After Dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:30You're a dark gift.
00:31Be my companion for all eternity.
00:34You had a way about him.
00:35Preternaturally charming, occasionally thoughtful.
00:37He was my murderer, my mentor, my lover and my maker.
00:40All of those things at once.
00:42Claudia was everything.
00:44The life of a vampire has its challenges.
00:50Can an immortal meet mortality?
00:53Theoretically, it can be done.
00:55But could it be done by us to him?
00:58Paris was an awakening, Louis.
01:00Paris was many things in those days.
01:04Bonjour, mon amour.
01:06Are you schizophrenic, Louis?
01:08I could feel the movement of air with his movement.
01:11His breath on the back of my neck.
01:13We were on trial for murder.
01:15Love has always been difficult for me.
01:17My first paramour, Nicolas Delafonte, a violinist.
01:20Guardes-tu ce garçon en comède mémoire?
01:23Mickey!
01:24Je suis Armand.
01:26Je suis le chef de ton clan.
01:28Did I send you?
01:29You led him there so he could destroy it.
01:31Yes.
01:31You saved Louis.
01:33That's it.
01:34Go for it!
01:35But not her.
01:37Who made you?
01:38His name was Magnus.
01:41He took me from my room in Paris.
01:43As I kicked and screamed.
01:44The light's going out of your blue eye.
01:47I've come to kill you.
01:48I have the blood of Akasha in me.
01:51He didn't save you.
01:53Lestat did.
01:55I'm guessing you haven't heard from my maker.
01:57I shouldn't have left you alone with him.
01:58Make it up to me.
01:59We'll do a follow-up book.
02:01I'm companion enough for myself now.
02:02I'm sorry I don't have much time.
02:04I'm in the middle of rehearsing.
02:05I'm going on tour.
02:06I just need about 50 more years of practice.
02:39Where the rock and roll is.
02:41Where the kids have.
02:43Where the hope of me, love of the feet of the mud.
02:46Where the stupid rain.
02:49Bang, bang.
02:51Bang, bang.
02:52Bang, bang.
02:54I'll fall down.
02:58Burn the ground.
03:02I'll fall down.
03:06Burn the ground.
03:09Bang, bang.
03:12Bang, bang.
03:13Bang, bang.
03:14Bang, bang.
03:15Bang, bang.
03:17Hmm.
03:18C'est cool.
03:33I don't think I would.
03:51The House wishes to extend its gratitude to the gathering for your compliance with the unorthodox prerequisites of tonight's event.
04:00Furthermore, we wish to reiterate that the anonymity that you have granted us will be given to you individually as
04:07well as to any institutions that you are representing.
04:11Stating the obvious, we are not here and neither are you.
04:18Lot one of two, the master recordings of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Liancourt, which includes his
04:262025 self-titled album, The Vampire Lestat,
04:30additional session tracks that were discarded in the final assemblage of the album, original handwritten scores and private recordings by
04:37the Vampire Lestat himself,
04:39which include a song cycle in the classical vein set to the poetry of Baudelaire.
04:47Before we begin the bidding, I perform the following action.
05:03We will begin the bidding at one yuan. Do I hear one yuan?
05:11B-U-N.
05:12B-U-N.
05:13Sold.
05:14To the gentlewoman.
05:16Third row.
05:17Good spirit.
05:19Lot number two.
05:20A music box, curated by the Vampire Lestat himself, a 1978 Fernando Marciani Corinto sideboard inside a Rosner & Zonn
05:33Mott turntable with Bialab 90 speakers.
05:37Two temperature-controlled wine cabinets, one holding a bottle of Kneeport 1863 port wine, the other with a magnum of
05:47blood from the curator himself.
05:49The upper level.
05:52The upper level.
05:52A singular vinyl pressing of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Leoncore, previously delineated, along with 111 albums
06:01of audio best described as an omniscient history of the events of the 2025 album in supporting tour and the
06:10consequential global catastrophes that sprung from said album and tour as narrated by the Vampire Lestat himself.
06:19The collection has been named The Failures.
06:23We will begin the bidding at 50 million yuan.
06:29If you are hearing this now, you must be a very privileged individual.
06:35You could have fed a small nation for years while they paved over the rubble.
06:39You bought my box instead.
06:41I like you already.
06:44So let's begin in the middle.
06:45For I could and should have ended it there, my tour, my hedonistic pursuit of extremity, all of it.
06:54And had I done so, the regretful dead and the traumatized still alive would be somewhere other than they are
07:01today.
07:02And I am not saying that the attempted extinction of the Y chromosome across the continents was all my fault.
07:08Now that would suggest a level of self-importance even I'm not comfortable with.
07:12But upon reflection, I made a contribution.
07:17It was the spring of 2025.
07:20A good nation was making itself great again.
07:25Again.
07:27And every vampire, those converting and those enduring, well, they were doing exactly as they pleased.
07:36need help.
07:39And there hait road going.
07:51You forever knew it was last night.
07:53To be careful.
07:53Love you.
07:55relevant media
07:57building's蛋. Of course,
07:57zero kids. And after magazines.
07:58The либо band'sgovernor
08:00neighbors. At the cinq off. EvoFi
08:06Ooh, ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:09Ooh, ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:14Ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:21What a long face, my pretty baby
08:24I've got long face, come up reason
08:29I'm the most things that doesn't faze me
08:36I'm an actor in my makeup
08:40I get fatter when we break her
08:44What does it matter who I take her?
08:49Naturally, I named the band after myself
08:52And the four that backed me played their parts as instructed
08:56There was Larry, the frontman made sideman
09:00Choking his guitar neck nightly, wishing it was mine
09:03Brother Alex, the more talented seedling
09:06Straight-edged in half the fun
09:10Salamander, bassist, dumb
09:12Shockingly dumb
09:13And TC, the abandoned bride of a dozen should have died in art school bands
09:19Keeping us all in the dirty pocket
09:21We dropped songs on the streams and booked intimate venues
09:25To induce what Jen's snooze called FOMO
09:28They came for cosplay, left converted
09:30And I baptized them, the beautiful unwell
09:33And yet, here we were
09:35In the inn of the stooges and the stripes
09:38Thirty performances notched
09:40And already resting on the alps of adequacy
09:43Unacceptable
09:44I'm a piano
09:46I'm your forte
09:48You're l'allegro
09:50I'm a dante
09:53We're balero
09:54Prostituate
10:08Hello
10:09Welcome to Detroit
10:11Lovely city
10:13Your song sucks
10:14Thank you for your feedback
10:16Pick up the pace
10:17Back up the gear
10:18Give me some face
10:19A souvenir
10:20Here come the days
10:21Here comes the fear
10:22And I have a

11:01Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah,
11:10oh yeah, oh!
11:14Well that was boring.
11:15Did you seem to like it?
11:16Harmonies on Plastic Fiends were trash.
11:19He's right.
11:19And the front head on your kick is shimmering. Turn it up a step.
11:22Singer's right.
11:23You left your tambourine in his stand, Larry.
11:25Yeah, well I was feeling the guitar.
11:26No one is coming to New Yorkie, darling.
11:29No, they come for the Aussie shit.
11:30Two Rage call the Harmony Room, Larry Slater shredding it tonight and no one ever.
11:35You sign the checks, sir.
11:36I do, I do sign the checks.
11:38Sign this.
11:38The tambourine tomorrow is rehearsed and perfected.
11:41Suck it, sir.
11:42What am I saying?
11:43You're not in Corvallis.
11:44You're crying the wife early retirement and her lawyer a lake book.
11:47Use the pen.
11:48But it's funny because it's blood and I'm a vampire.
11:51Notaries in Oregon don't notarize in red ink.
11:53There's the band and there's the shell that protects the band from the world's envy.
11:59Our band shell was Christine Clare.
12:02She hired, fired, dictated and castrated with extreme prejudice.
12:09Try your best not to be you tonight.
12:09We want the car.
12:11No.
12:11We'll be good.
12:12Corvallis.
12:13Yes.
12:14What do you think?
12:17No.
12:19No.
12:20All right, Slats, out to go.
12:21I'm going into my vampire dressing room.
12:24A little draining both ways.
12:27You'll have to guess who gets the Fangs and who gets the vodka bottle.
12:30And yes, it's a vodka bottle.
12:34You did it again?
12:36Fucking asshole.
12:37Did I mention that I was filming a documentary at the time?
12:40A bootless errand helmed by a first-time director.
12:43I've seen a rough cut.
12:45Truthful and daring, with less war and pity.
12:48Anyone see Yarda?
12:49Yarda, Sky, Blue Waters.
12:54Missing a contact again.
12:56Oh, okay.
12:58How many drinks have you had?
13:00One and a half.
13:01Drive to the Burbs, sit by yourself in a booth at Applebee's, order the usual.
13:04Big tip, meet us back in the city.
13:07Now, you'd think a 54-city rock tour would be a wonderful cover for a blood drinker.
13:11Hide your keel up on the bus, wave to the morgue reports in the rearview mirror, that kind of thing.
13:16But niche celebrity is a hunter's handicap, and a sloppy night in Corvallis made urgent the need for a body
13:22double.
13:24His name was Yarda Klapik, and the Albanian gangsters Christine hired to find my doppelganger found him working construction in
13:31the Czech Republic.
13:32Three inches shorter than your velvet mouth, narrator, we fit him for lifts, blue eye contacts, and a wig.
13:39And otherwise, let him be Neanderthal me.
13:42I hunted this way, and we sent him that way.
13:44And every sad photograph uploaded to Reddito discord of Yarda eating up tuna melt by himself only confirmed, for most,
13:53what they already believed.
13:55Let's go!
13:55That I, the Vampire Lestat, was Daniel Malloy's fictitious creation.
14:01And the Vampire Lestat, the band, was fronted by a brick-laying karaoke fanatic from Ostrova.
14:06Nothing but a desperate cash grab at the end of a chuggy vampire fad.
14:10And I've only myself to blame for the timing, having locked us in an attic for a year plus, perfecting
14:15our sound.
14:16The sound, I hope, would counter Mr. Dulac's portrayal of me as a mayonnaise villain with sociopathic tendencies.
14:24I'll beside the point, because the point was, the point forever is...
14:28I know you're real!
14:29Most of humanity moved on from vampires, and rather quickly.
14:33Congratulations.
14:35Now go make friends.
14:38They lifted their heads from their algorithmic handmasters, uttered a collective...
14:42And swipe left.
14:45I am the Vampire Lestat.
14:48I am a god.
14:50Gods are not swiped.
14:54The Contessa!
14:56The useful idiot!
14:58Great show!
15:00You left before we started.
15:02Yeah, I figured.
15:02Spotify some T-Rex and drag a little old neg from Dr. Fareed.
15:06Good here.
15:06Same, Jeff.
15:08I am not here.
15:09Can we mic you?
15:10TC punched the boom again.
15:12Yeah, okay.
15:19So, uh, you and Louis talking again?
15:23He doesn't return my texts.
15:25Or my telepathy.
15:28I hear he's back in the States.
15:32We good?
15:33We're good.
15:35It's late.
15:37Okay.
15:40You've been alive and undead for 265 years.
15:43As you witnessed the French Revolution first-hand, the electric light, penicillin, two world wars, the atomic bomb, the moon
15:51landing, the Berlin Walls...
15:53Chestnut.
15:54What?
15:55He eats hot dogs for a living.
15:57He's extraordinary.
15:58I hope to meet him one day.
15:59Was there a question?
15:59Having accumulated profound wisdom and experience through the dark gift of immortality, why have you chosen to waste at singing
16:07music no one wants to hear in pants no one should ever squeeze into?
16:11You ask this question every night.
16:13And I get a different answer every night.
16:14You get me to repeat myself soon enough.
16:16I am sure once you confront your transformational trauma.
16:19I don't have transformational trauma.
16:21Hmm, that's why these movie producers hired you, Danny Malloy, vampire slayer.
16:26They said you requested me.
16:28Absurd.
16:29Oh, as absurd as a documentary about a rock band posing as vampires, fronted by an actual vampire.
16:36Directed by a vampire passing as a human.
16:39You tell him for me.
16:41Is it true you were a stutterer as a child?
16:44Louie said you were.
16:51Was he there in 18th century Auvergne?
16:53You said you told him that.
16:54Did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
16:57Was I in the room when Donizetti wrote Don Pasquale?
17:01No, no, and impossible because I had buried myself underground for the vast majority of the 1800s.
17:08I wrote what he told me.
17:10I don't have trauma.
17:11I love being a vampire.
17:13And can you drop the fledgling speak and spell?
17:22The dark, dreary, industrial world has finally submitted to automation.
17:30Laborers stand in their doorways hitting their pipes as their children have pipe in their drained empty swimming pools.
17:40Drugstores locked up baby formula and shaving cream while Saks ate Barneys and someone told everyone that Lululemon was sexy.
17:52Facts are irrelevant.
17:55Fields are everything.
17:58And the value of human life, it has never been more arbitrary.
18:04David, Freddy, Prince Rogers, they're all gone.
18:10And the lights on Tay-Tay's ears have dimmed.
18:13Fire coming down the hill.
18:16Water moving in on Nantucket.
18:19But no more safe spaces.
18:24It's my era now.
18:30Post Malone and Jelly Roll playing there tonight.
18:3360,000 for a face tattoo Palooza.
18:36You played an 800-seat venue.
18:38How is it your era?
18:43I'm vain and shallow and pure and empty seat.
18:45Ask me an easy one.
18:48Is it true your band was formed on Halloween?
18:57You were listening to The Failures, album 2, side B.
19:26What do you think?
19:28It's nice.
19:30Nice?
19:31Yeah, it's nice.
19:32I don't see Beyonce covering it, but it's nice.
19:37Nice is nothing.
19:38Oh, it's nice.
19:40Nice is a balloon.
19:40It's your back right music.
19:41A flower box is nice.
19:43It's nice.
19:43You got yourself a nice place.
19:45It's a nice word.
19:46And it says everything I wanted to express.
19:49Don't be a bitch about it.
19:52You should come visit.
19:54I have a space above the bed in one of the guest rooms.
19:57I can't find a painting for her.
19:59Oh, a guest room?
20:01You want me to come and see your guest room?
20:03It's an affluent neighborhood.
20:05Old money, young professionals,
20:08a smattering of Christ de Truss von Bebe.
20:10Good eating.
20:14Same potholes, but no hurricanes, no witches.
20:20Everyone mangles French just like you do.
20:23Come to me.
20:24Montreal.
20:26I am he, and he is me.
20:30Let's beg your chair.
20:31I get it.
20:32I get it.
20:34Besides, there's an Olmstead Park nearby if I get homesick.
20:38And there's a garage band rehearsing across the street
20:42who call themselves, of all things, Satan.
20:47They call themselves, of all things, Satan?
20:50Satan's night out.
20:52Satan's night out?
20:54Out.
20:54Satan's night out.
20:55Okay.
20:56Makes sense.
20:57Louie, do you know someone called Daniel Malloy?
21:03I burned his laptop.
21:04I didn't know he had it saved in the cloud.
21:06I only found out it was coming out a month ago.
21:08You've known for a month,
21:09and you talk about me and it to a mortal?
21:11Well, yeah.
21:12Uh, yeah.
21:13Gonna, you know?
21:14No, I don't know, Louie.
21:17Please, explain yourself.
21:18It's gonna be here and gone in a minute.
21:20No one reads anymore.
21:24100%.
21:29100%.
21:29That's right, Lou Louvre.
21:31Hey, toots, les boomers faisaient la file
21:34pour aller voir l'autre bas de ferme
21:35avec sa resting-but-face.
21:37Moi, j'ai skippé de ça,
21:38puis je t'aiderais de voir ma beta boy
21:39dans le coin de la salle.
21:42Je me le ferais.
21:44Faut que tu l'en sers.
21:47Je le ponnerais.
21:48Je le morderais.
21:49Tu le bras.
21:50Puis je le liche, liche, licherais.
21:55Le stat man.
21:56Il aurait dû brûler les motifs français
21:58sur Royal Street.
22:00100%.
22:00Combien de Wildsleeve-là.
22:03Tu veux-tu devenir membre?
22:05Il y a 10%...
22:06No, thank you!
22:11Huh.
22:14Oh, I know what infinitesimal means.
22:19It was raining.
22:20No, no, never fucking...
22:27Lelio!
22:29I'm not a harlequin.
22:30Your sources are your sherpets.
22:34Your editor is your priest.
22:36Don't go to the app.
22:38Jesus, out.
22:40Why must you complicate it?
22:43Hello, James.
22:45Can I be a breeze?
22:47Hello.
22:49Hello.
22:51Oh, I went to the full-size bar.
22:54That is.
22:55Is that the two?
22:56This is the ship of Woodway.
22:58Thank you!
22:58Thank you!
23:00Your camera is not period correct.
23:03I have a peanut allergy.
23:04Well, allergies are delusional.
23:07Take the mounts.
23:08You'll take whatever I give you.
23:11What?
23:11It looks amazing.
23:12Oh, my God.
23:15Oh, my God.
23:16Oh, my God.
23:16Oh, my God.
23:18Oh, my God.
23:32Oh, my God.
23:34Oh, my God.
23:35Oh, my God.
23:53Oh, what the fuck?
24:05G, minor, slas.
24:10This is in 1979, Bela Lugosi is not dead.
24:14You don't need to finger her for five bars, you're hurting her.
24:22Apologies for the squire.
24:24My mandatory will come in the morning with a replacement and a new front door.
24:31More frequent showers?
24:38What was the question again?
24:41Why music?
24:42Hey!
24:43Hey!
24:44Why now?
24:46Dude, that was sick.
24:48What are we doing here?
24:51We're doing a rewrite.
24:54So this whole tour is just some ironic reaction to my book.
24:59Who better to refute the book than the man who wrote the book?
25:05The songs are my story, your documentary, The Liner Notes.
25:09Liner Notes?
25:10I won two Pulitzers.
25:11I'm taking this thing to Cannes, okay?
25:14I'm gonna be slapping Chris Rock and stroking my Oscar.
25:18The Brat sings, the Brat dies.
25:21The Great Laws are clear on this.
25:23I love songs.
25:24More exposure for us.
25:26More risk for us.
25:27I don't have any problems in the songs.
25:29The song is for them, not for us.
25:32He sings for himself.
25:33What do you want to do?
25:34Don't do it.
25:35Don't do it.
25:36Only a Coven Leader can make more.
25:38The Great Laws are clear on that.
25:41First the book.
25:42Now the singer.
25:43This is chaos.
25:44Unpained.
25:46If he comes to your people, he'll die.
25:50My little hearts will flourish.
25:55You ain't gonna confess what you used to find.
26:22hmm
27:16Oop.
27:33I got a real life work
27:36Did a break, didn't try to run
27:39I got a real life work
27:44Stuck in on the sun
27:45No time for growing up
27:47No time for growing up
27:49No time for bathing out
27:50Your phone is blowing up
27:52I got a real life work
27:55No time for old my stepbrother
27:57Till he come to die, die, die, die
28:00Don't want to smash us
28:02Let it be your morning star
28:04Don't want to learn about a TikTok dance
28:07Want to stay in bed
28:08Eat by the girl's head
28:19The Beef House and the Twin Oaks Mall
28:21Order at the bar this time
28:23Take some photos with the fans
28:24It's like my favorite
28:25Keep it scrolling
28:26Rolling by the mountain
28:27Hold the seat
28:32Hi, Papi
28:34I've been a bad boy
28:36Deep down in my heart
28:37I kept on moving the dark
28:39Secrets from the very start
28:40Give me a million more screams
28:43He's as I play
28:45What you think it means
28:46Do, do, do, do
28:48Da, da, da
28:49Don't want to smash us
29:06Pick up the fucking jammery
29:08From the ups of adequacy
29:11To the canyon of coup d'etat
29:13Two nights in a row
29:14My violin competing with his guitar
29:17For the solo break
29:18Two centuries waiting to share
29:20My music
29:21Two years
29:23As Mr. Dulac's B-movie Brute
29:26But just as I was about to bridge the bridge
29:29With murder and mayhem
29:32Something quite surprising happened
29:34My music
29:36Wrapped itself around me
29:38Like a jungle snake
29:39Constricting its prey
29:41And a lifetime of blood-bartering
29:44Overwhelmed the temporal lobe
29:47Muses appeared in my mind
29:49And in the now around me
29:53Memories taking their turn
29:59Blood in
30:01Blood out
30:06Hammering away at the performative vampire persona
30:09I had welded into armor
30:14The armor cracked
30:18The bridge buckled
30:21And the bona fide vampire emerged
30:23Center stage
30:25It was I who had been adequate
30:30It was I who had been holding us back
30:34And now exposed in the roar
30:37Under the white hot lights
30:40My bandmates began to feed
30:46And that sound I had been grinding them for
30:49Was finally unleashed
30:52A euphoric grattiness spilling into the crowd
30:55Into their bodies
30:57Enveloping the venue
30:58I want to stay back
31:03Even like a ranch
31:05I want to stay back
31:09Even like a ranch
31:11I want to stay back
31:15Even like a ranch
31:22I want to stay back
31:27I want to stay back
31:29I want to stay back
31:36I want to stay back
31:37I want to stay back
31:38I want to stay back
31:39I want to stay back
31:39I want to stay back
31:39I want to stay back
31:39I want to stay back
31:40I want to stay back
31:41I want to stay back
31:42I want to stay back
31:43I want to stay back
31:45Let her get her on the ground
31:52I should have quit right there and then would have been a lovely footnote to my life the band, but
32:10the muses were just beginning
32:14You done this to me
32:19I lost myself on stage for a moment
32:22Seems you still lost
32:26This song's gonna kill you, you know that, don't you?
32:29I can't die
32:30Everything dies, you die, I die
32:34She dies, she dies
32:37Oh, he dies bad
32:42I'm immortal
32:43Yeah, you kill some wolves and fall in love, get the gift, fall in love, go to ground, get dug
32:49up and fall in love
32:51You like some wet clothes and a coin-op dryer, just 265 years round and round
32:57Why are you so sad?
33:00Thousands of fans loving you
33:02I want millions
33:04And that'll top off that heart of yours
33:09Billions
33:10Then why you always gotta make it so hard for someone to give it to you
33:15Huh?
33:17Who told you that?
33:19Don't worry, they coming
33:22Who's coming?
33:24Oh, they gonna tell you themselves
33:27Who's coming?
33:29Who's coming?
33:29Great show, man
33:30Who?
33:34You are listening to the failures
33:36Album 5, side B
33:39If you take nothing else away from your exorbitant purchase
33:43Heed this advice
33:45Never play two nights in Detroit
33:48You'll wind up in Windsor with a broken orbital bone listening to transactional sex through the adjoining walls
33:56How I came to this squalid real estate is the premise of side B album 5, so...
34:04Come
34:06Now the boutique hotel we were staying at was having a grandish opening that night
34:10And the band was asked to lend its celebrity status to the event
34:13Don't tell me to pose, fuck you!
34:16There was a red carpet, a pap line, and a vampire DJ of some renown seducing corporate employees, provincial influencers,
34:24and party crashing beautifully unknown
34:27I was having sex in an elevator with Dee and the girl I had just overindulged myself with early in
34:33the night
34:34Actually, that happens later
34:38A lot of things happened that night
34:40Huh
34:40Come on
34:44The band is inside, with Dan, and the VIP purse
34:49I'm giving the paps my pussycat
34:51With no idea that I would be in a fang fight less than an hour later
34:56No, no, no, no
34:57I'm getting ahead of myself again
34:59I arrived fashionably late, of course
35:02State your name through the camera
35:04Baby Jake
35:05Okay, baby
35:06Tell me
35:07Why do you like the vampire Lestat?
35:09Like I'm going to be in the movie?
35:11Oh, you're in it now.
35:13I am feeling good.
35:16Surfing the sublime candy-flipped wave of the girl's blood.
35:19Hear him. Hear that voice.
35:22The girl is feeling good.
35:23Wow.
35:24Riding the wonders of Dr. Fareed's blood transfusion quick pick-me-up cocktail.
35:29Who's this guy? Because like, rock and roll, it's dying.
35:32I sat there, soaking up her praise, along with the band,
35:36still somehow blind to the vampiric mysteries of their front man.
35:40So what if the dead and buried past was now a fresh and eager groupie?
35:45It's rock and roll, you know?
35:47Have a nervous breakdown on stage,
35:49chat it up with the floating girl on the ceiling you almost killed,
35:51have sex with her in the elevator.
35:53Ah, I'm still not there yet.
35:56MDMA and LSD.
35:58The tour of Lendina, hallucinogenics.
36:01And so then everybody's like, is rock and roll actually dying?
36:04Were you a stutterer as a child?
36:06They walk into the ER, they are like, the doctor.
36:10Unless that's the scalpel.
36:12I'm the scalpel printed t-shirt.
36:15And so he, the scalpel, cuts into rock and roll's heart,
36:20like he cut into mine tonight.
36:23And he has the heart in his mouth.
36:26He's like, do you want to fuck?
36:29And rock and roll is like, yes, bitch!
36:32I excused myself to the men's room.
36:35Didn't read about vampire physiology in Mr. Dulac's memoir, did you?
36:39No mention of the scars on my chest either.
36:42Hair stopping way above my shoulders.
36:45And just for the record,
36:46no ticket pocket of mine ever had his initials inscribed onto them.
36:49I mean, these are the editorial wags of an insane person.
36:55Note to self-edit that out in the final version.
36:58Starting again.
37:00Vampire's pee.
37:01We don't do it as often as you do, assuming you're not one of us.
37:04And we generally avoid eco-friendly urinals.
37:17We don't do it as often as you do as you do as you do as you do as you
37:22do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as
37:22you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do

37:29do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as you do as
37:37Her name's Tim. She's Russ.
37:39They're Russ.
38:07I just wanted to apologize.
38:08What? Black licorice?
38:11Why do I have to feel?
38:15I like those ones.
38:17Frankly, Mr. Shankly almost ruined the Queen's death. I apologize if you accept it.
38:24We have a coven out here in Detroit.
38:26Do you?
38:27The Fang Gang.
38:29You want to see a real vampire bar? Come with us.
38:32We have a huge house out past Brightmoor.
38:34Our own farm under the floorboards.
38:37Hmm, sure. What about tomorrow night?
38:40You're on the road tomorrow night.
38:42Yes, it was me being polite.
38:46No, that was you lying.
38:49Eco-friendly urinals.
38:51Good for the planet, so we're told.
38:53Good for vampires. Hmm.
38:56We Chardonnay them.
39:02And then there's regional vampires.
39:06Always trying to make a name for themselves.
39:09I Chardonnay them, too.
39:12Obligations, I'm afraid.
39:13But please do send my most sincere bonjour to your Brightmoorice.
39:17Come on.
39:22Lilac.
39:37I have a blind spot when it comes to blood poisoning.
39:40I didn't think a vampire of my stature would know better.
39:43But then there's that old singing.
39:45You fool me once, shame on me.
39:47You fool me twice.
39:48MDMA and LSD are excellent drugs.
39:52Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.
39:54Twirl, twirl.
39:56Overshare.
39:57I saw your soul.
39:59I saw yours, too.
40:04Still feeling good.
40:07I went looking for my band.
40:08Looking for sex.
40:10Looking for anything that radiated the fun that I sang about in my song, Long Face.
40:16And then...
40:19Regionals.
40:20Wait, did you say that Long Face sucked?
40:23Long Face sucks.
40:24Does it suck?
40:25I wondered.
40:27Did you have a point?
40:28And then I thought...
40:30Ooh.
40:31They want a little scrap with a scalpel.
40:34No worries.
40:35I thought I have the Queen's blood in me.
40:37I could take 20 regionals at once with the Queen's blood.
40:41Where's the band, then?
40:44They called corporate bullshit.
40:48Went to party...
40:50Upstairs.
40:52So I'm scoring dick pills in Mogadishu for a UN peacekeeper.
40:56Went in walk Stuart Copeland.
40:58Wearing a kufi and a mouthful of ammo.
41:01So I thought about having sex with Christine.
41:03And then I thought...
41:04That's all the way upstairs.
41:06And then I thought...
41:08I'm the scalpel.
41:09What does the scalpel do between here and upstairs?
41:15Mr. Delac's memoir tiptoed around vampire sex, didn't it?
41:20He and Dan made it out to be this tortured act or obligational foreplay before blood drinking.
41:26That is not the case at all.
41:28It's not the capstone of vampiric desires.
41:30That would be the taking of life.
41:32And next would be a good draining, leaving your victim near death unparalyzed for an unhurried escape.
41:38And after that, there's the petticoot, the little drink, the sip.
41:42And after those three, it's sex.
41:45So now you know.
41:46The fourth best thing a vampire can do to avoid thinking about the past is to have sex.
41:52Sex.
41:54And I have had a lot of sex over the years.
41:56It's not all pain and toxicity.
41:58I have an immortal life and I carry with it an immortal erection and I am not ashamed of it.
42:04Sex is fun.
42:05Like the fun I sing about in Long Face.
42:08Which, looking back on it now, does suck.
42:12I still have residuals coming in, actually.
42:15Carnal pleasure is essential to a vampire survival.
42:19If only to keep time's baggage from burying you.
42:24Sex with the bellman and Dee and honey trapping baby Jenks.
42:29Probably should have gotten off the seventh floor when I had gotten off.
42:35But I didn't.
42:39I'm getting married in a week.
42:42I'll never forget you.
42:52No vampire shall ever reveal his or her true nature to a mortal.
42:57Let the mortal live.
42:58You do know it's 2025.
43:03Trace the wall, my dear. You'll not want to see this.
43:09The tooth team. The Fang gang.
43:16I killed a pack of wolves when I was immortal.
43:19I'll most likely tell you about that later as I let it define me for a time.
43:23A normally confining architecture and a thrift store coven galvanized by medieval dogma wouldn't faze me in the least.
43:30I'm building a career that supports my well-being.
43:34But...
43:34The drug blood in my sex legs and the distracting past my music had unleashed on me put me at
43:40a momentary disadvantage.
43:42I'm in charge of my work-life balance.
43:45Law four? As if the Dulac Malloy memoir hadn't outed us all two years ago.
43:50As if my entire stage show wasn't a bawdy burlesque of is here, isn't he?
43:55As if half the vampire population outside the ruined pool of Detroit wasn't waving the dark gift like red cups
44:02in a piss bar.
44:04Collecting fledglings like they were the bubadores.
44:06I mean, I haven't even told my band I was an actual vampire.
44:10I was just singing my songs and fucking my food and defending myself from the vibrant life choices I had
44:15made on my way from the Auvergne countryside to the eighth floor of this why bother hotel.
44:20And this is how it was all going to end for me.
44:23We are the Fangang.
44:25We are the children of the darkness reborn.
44:30Jesus fucking God!
44:33Our mom told the truth if you met him.
44:37What the fuck does that even mean?!
44:39I thought there was an after party on the asshole floor.
44:42I like to think I was owed the reinforcements.
44:46Dan and the oddly familiar DJ.
44:49But that's me looking back on it now.
44:51Anything I had done to deserve their timely rescue hadn't happened yet.
44:56I'd be dead, I think, without Dan.
44:58But then maybe more of the world would still be alive had Dan not rallied his army downstairs.
45:05Consider this sliding door of Dan.
45:08As you decant my blood and devour my words.
45:24It's hard hiding you're a god.
45:27You're for real?
45:28CCTV.
45:30Eco flush toilets.
45:31IMF freezing your accounts because you have the blood of a patricidal queen inside you.
45:36Hello again.
45:38We have to live off here.
45:40Telemasker dragged me into that.
45:42And once you reveal yourself, you have to be on all the time.
45:46And remember every face you've ever met.
45:48And everywhere you go, everyone remembers the thing they said to you in the room that you shared.
45:55Were you a stutterer as a child?
45:59This is why gods prefer hiding in the clouds.
46:03There's nothing there.
46:06But water waiting to fall.
46:15So many opportunities to call it a night that night.
46:20After the song unleashed the muses.
46:23After I saw my first soul.
46:26After I was nearly decapitated in a boutique hotel hallway.
46:32After my vampire nature was revealed to the band and my vampire gift winged me away north of the rivers
46:39off of the country.
46:43But I was saved from such rational thought.
46:47Love will do that to you.
47:08Thank you for the next day.
47:12Thank you very much, dear.
47:14I will take care of you, too, man.
47:19I'm good.
47:20and it's something I can't get out of music's opened up the batch of it I'm not
47:28sure if I can close it again
47:35I'm not really at my best but
47:42it's very nice to see you again
47:49I like what you've done with your hair Mike
47:54Mike
48:01Mike
48:01my
48:03Gabriel
48:07it's not much of a reveal I guess
48:10I know it's common gossip now
48:12the first thing one thinks about when my name comes up
48:16I assume a privileged individual such as yourself enjoys a little dirt in their sandwich
48:24so I serve it to you now
48:27how it felt then
48:31fledgling
48:34lover
48:37mother
48:40listen to tracks from the vampire list at wherever you stream music
48:46if you're still listening after the last hour welcome back to bring on the music
48:52give me a million more screams
48:54do you kill people
48:57give me a million more screams
49:01let's talk about your mother
49:04I've been a bad boy
49:05my maker called for his mama and I came
49:10give me a million more screams
49:15you are caught in great danger with this stuff
49:18you stole my personal position
49:20you hired my biographer
49:23the songs are not about you
49:30shall we do it?
49:31shall we scorch the mortal world?
49:37what do you think about the great conversion?
49:40fucking stupid
49:47you are listening to the failures
49:49album 8 side A
49:57at the top of our first episode
50:00we show a scene that is
50:02probably happening in real time
50:05after a bunch of catastrophic events have happened
50:13if you are hearing this now
50:15you must be a very privileged individual
50:24what makes this season special
50:26is that it's still the same characters
50:27that you love and know from the previous seasons
50:30we're just putting them in an entirely new world
50:32and as they do in the books
50:33and as we do in this show
50:34like the world continues to crack open
50:37larger and larger
50:42just like the plot changes
50:44the whole attitude of the show changes
50:46and we move into this completely crazy rock and roll world
50:54he did it again
50:55a lot of the beauty and elegance
50:57that you would usually see him surrounded by
51:00is gone
51:01it feels really grungy and really rough
51:03and really raw
51:04and so it was a very fun environment
51:07to be putting him in
51:13come to me
51:13come to me
51:15I am he
51:16and he is me
51:18Louis and Lysada FaceTiming
51:19and you're probably going to get the sense that
51:20Louis is going to come over pretty soon
51:22they'll probably get back together
51:24or like work it out
51:25nice
51:25yeah it's nice
51:27one of the first conversations I had with Roland and Hannah and the writers was that I think
51:33Louis has watched just a ton of YouTube and it is time off you know like cat videos
51:43probably hungrily
51:44Louis do you know someone called Daniel Molloy?
51:47well Lysada finds out about the book and then that completely throws all those plans out of the window
51:51one of my favorite things about the second season of interview with the vampire is that
51:56I burned his laptop
51:57I didn't know he had it saved in the cloud
51:59Louis sets fire to a laptop to try and erase the book
52:04um
52:04but
52:05like no one told him about the cloud
52:08I only found out it was coming out a month ago
52:10you've known for a month
52:11and you talk about me and it to a mortal?
52:13well yeah
52:13uh
52:14yeah
52:14gonna
52:15but
52:15you know
52:16no I don't know Louis
52:18please
52:19explain yourself
52:20both Louis and Lysada are not necessarily happy with the way that either of them were portrayed in the book
52:25is like a mix of guilt and probably a sense of vengeance about it
52:30Lestat sees that book come out
52:32sees what he perceives are lies and distortions mistruths and he's like you know what I'm gonna set the record
52:40straight
52:40was he there in 18th century Auvergne?
52:43he said you told him that
52:44did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
52:46no
52:47and impossible
52:48Daniel Molloy is an investigative journalist of the absolute top shelf
52:53who better to refute the book than the man who wrote the book?
52:57he has a
52:59incorrigible need to find out what the truth is
53:02why do you like the vampire Lestat?
53:04si el llega a tu pueblo
53:05matale
53:06I heard there was an after party on the asshole floor
53:10this isn't just sex, drugs and rock and roll
53:13it's sex, drugs, rock and roll and sucking blood out of people's necks
53:19you're for real?
53:23you're for real?
53:30you're for real?
53:32yeah, that's a good job
53:33you're for real?
53:34you're for real?
53:36you're for real?
53:37Black in the Clear is just a great song
53:38it's about the first kill that Lestat made after he reconciled with Louis in New Orleans
53:45Didn't blink, didn't try to run, I got a real eye word
53:52Particularly in episode one you do see that he's pushing and pushing
53:55To get this sort of moment of grace to be completely engulfed in the music
54:02But just as I was about to bridge the bridge with murder and mayhem
54:07Something quite surprising happened
54:10And that's what he gets from Black Licorice
54:12He does have his first breakdown
54:15Of many
54:16Muses appeared in my mind and in the now around me
