Transcript
00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat After Dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:11Previously on the show formerly titled Interview with the Vampire.
00:15So, Mr. Dulac, how long have you been dead?
00:18The year was 1910.
00:20Louis, let me introduce you to Mr. Lestat de Leoncore.
00:23What exactly is the nature of your relationship with my brother, Monsieur Leoncore?
00:27I can swap this life of shame.
00:29Swap it out for a dark gift.
00:31Be my companion.
00:32For all eternity.
00:34He 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.
00:51Can an immortal meet mortality?
00:54Theoretically, it can be done.
00:55But could it be done by us to him?
00:58Paris was an awakening, Louis.
01:01Paris was many things in those days.
01:05Bonjour, 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.
01:18Nicolas Delafonte, a violinist.
01:24You let him there so he could destroy it.
01:31Yes.
01:31You saved Louis.
01:33Banishment.
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.
01:59Make 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.
02:23I'm a little killer.
02:25I'm a lonely one.
02:28I'm a trigger gun up your spine.
02:30Telling you to run.
02:31I'm a living shadow.
02:33I'm a last line.
02:36I'm a past and the future.
02:37The lies of the suit is a cool and death.
02:40Where the rock and roll is.
02:41Where the gifts have.
02:44Where the heart of me love and the face of the mind.
02:46Where the stupid rain.
02:49Bang, bang.
02:50Bang, bang.
02:51Bang, bang.
02:53Bang, bang.
02:54Bang, bang.
02:55I'll fall down.
02:58Burn the ground.
03:02I'll fall down.
03:06Burn the ground.
03:09Bang, bang.
03:11Bang, bang.
03:13Bang, bang.
03:15Bang, bang.
03:17Bang, bang.
03:18C'est cool.
03:49Good evening.
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 1 of 2, the master recordings of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Liancourt, which includes his
04:262025 self-titled album, The Vampire Lestat,
04:29additional session tracks that were discarded in the final assemblage of the album,
04:34original handwritten scores and private recordings by the 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 1yuan.
05:07Do I hear 1yuan?
05:11E-U-N.
05:12Sol, to the gentlewoman, 3rd row, good spirit.
05:19Lot number 2.
05:21A music box, curated by the Vampire Lestat himself,
05:27a 1978 Fernando Marciani Corinto sideboard,
05:31inside a Rosner & Zonn Mott turntable,
05:34with Bialab 90 speakers.
05:38Two, temperature-controlled wine cabinets,
05:41one holding a bottle of Kneeport 1863 port wine,
05:46the other with a magnum of blood from the curator himself.
05:50The upper level,
05:52a singular vinyl pressing of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Liancourt,
05:58previously delineated,
05:59along with 111 albums of audio best described as
06:04an omniscient history of the events of the 2025 album and supporting tour,
06:10and the consequential global catastrophes that sprung from said album and tour,
06:15as narrated by the Vampire Lestat himself.
06:19The collection has been named
06:21The Failures.
06:24We will begin the bidding at 50 million yuan.
06:29If you are hearing this now,
06:32you 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.
06:42I like you already.
06:44So let's begin in the middle.
06:46For I could and should have ended it there,
06:49my tour, my hedonistic pursuit of extremity.
06:53All of it.
06:54And had I done so,
06:56the regretful dead and the traumatized still alive
06:59would be somewhere other than they are today.
07:03And I am not saying that the attempted extinction of the Y chromosome
07:06across the continents was all my fault.
07:09Now that would suggest a level of self-importance even I'm not comfortable with.
07:12But upon reflection,
07:14I 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,
07:29those converting and those enduring,
07:32well,
07:33they were doing exactly as they pleased.
07:39We'll be right back together.
07:39Then we're back together.
07:52Ma'am.
07:53Funny.
07:53Let's go.gent
07:56.��
07:56'am. Features.
07:56If you knew
07:56overat. My son was meant to
07:57And we're here,
07:57we didn't agree with
07:57when we left here. There's a young
07:57man. Give us better than to
07:57lose. It's good news.
07:59Let's go together.
08:06Ooh, ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:09Ooh, ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:14Ooh, ooh, ooh, wah-ah
08:21What a long face, not for the baby
08:25I've got long face, come up reason
08:29No more lost things that doesn't faze me
08:36I'm an actor and my maker
08:41I 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, shockingly 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
09:44Unacceptable
09:45Un piano

10:59Oh yeah, we're coming.
11:02Oh yeah, I'm coming.
11:06Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh!
11:14Well, that was boring.
11:15Do you seem to like it?
11:16Harmonies on Plastic Fiends were trash.
11:19He's right.
11:19The front head on your kick is shimmering.
11:21Turn it up his step.
11:22Singer's right.
11:23You left your tambourine in his stand, Larry.
11:25Yeah, I was feeling the guitar.
11:27No one is coming to hear your guitar, Larry.
11:29No, they come for the Aussie shit.
11:31Do rage call the harmony room.
11:32Larry Slater shredding it tonight and no one ever.
11:35You sign the checks, sir.
11:37I do, I do sign the checks.
11:38Sign this.
11:39The tambourine tomorrow is rehearsed and perfected.
11:41Suck it, sir.
11:42When am I, Sarah?
11:43You're not in Corvallis.
11:44You grind the life early retirement and the lawyer a lake boat.
11:47You speak pen.
11:48But it's funny because it's blood and I'm a liar.
11:53There's a band and there's a 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.
12:10We want the car.
12:11Now.
12:11We'll be good.
12:12Corvallis.
12:14What do you think?
12:15I know!
12:19I know!
12:20I know!
12:21I'm going into my vampire dressing room now.
12:25A 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.
12:34He 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.
12:47With less war and pity.
12:48Anyone see Yarda?
12:48One of the swipes and waters!
12:55Missing a contact again.
12:56Oh.
12:57Okay.
12:58How many drinks have you had?
13:00One and a half.
13:01Drive to the burbs.
13:02Sip by yourself in a booth at Applebee's.
13:04Order the usual.
13:05Big tip?
13:06Meet 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 ports 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
13:23double.
13:24His name was Yarda Klapik, and the Albanian gangsters Christine hired to find my doppelganger
13:29found him working construction in the Czech Republic.
13:32Three inches shorter than your velvet mouth narrator, we fit him for lifts,
13:36blue-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
13:50only confirmed, for most, what they already believed.
13:55That I, the Vampire Lestat, was Daniel Malloy's fictitious creation.
14:00And the Vampire Lestat, the band, was fronted by a bricklaying karaoke phonetic 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 be 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.
14:34Congratulations.
14:36Now go make friends.
14:38They lifted their heads from their algorithmic handmasters, uttered a collective,
14:42huh, and swipe left.
14:45I am the Vampire Lestat.
14:48I am a god.
14:51Gods are not swiped.
14:54The Contessa.
14:56The useful idiot.
14:58Great show.
15:00You left before we started.
15:02Yeah, I figured Spotify some T-Rex and drag a little oneg from Dr. Fareed Good here.
15:07Save him, 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 Louie 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.
15:36Okay.
15:40You've been alive and undead for 265 years.
15:44You witnessed the French Revolution firsthand, the electric light, penicillin, two world wars,
15:50the atomic bomb, the moon landing, the Berlin Wall.
15:53Joey Chestnut.
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,
16:04why have you chosen to waste at singing music no one wants to hear in pants no one should ever
16:10squeeze 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, I am sure, once you confront your transformational trauma.
16:19I don't have transformational trauma.
16:22That'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 Auvers?
16:53He said you told him that.
16:54Did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
16:56Was I in the room when Donna Zetti wrote Don Pasquale?
17:01No, no, and impossible, because I had buried myself underground for the vast majority of the 1800s.
17:09I 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.
17:31Laborers 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.
17:50Facts are irrelevant, feels are everything, and 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.
18:14Fire coming down the hill.
18:16Water moving in on Nantucket.
18:20No more safe spaces.
18:24It's my era now.
18:31Host Malone and Jelly Roll playing there tonight.
18:33$60,000 for a face tattoo Palooza.
18:36You played an 800 seat venue.
18:38How was 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?
18:52Halloween.
18:57You are listening to The Failures.
19:01Album 2, side B.
19:26What do you think?
19:28It's nice.
19:30Nice?
19:31Yeah.
19:31It's nice.
19:32I don't see Beyoncé covering it, but it's nice.
19:37Nice is nothing.
19:38Oh, it's nice.
19:40Nice is a balloon.
19:41It's your back right in music.
19:41A flower box is nice.
19:43It's nice.
19:43You got yourself a nice place.
19:45It's a nice word, and 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.
19:58I can't find a painting for her.
19:59Oh, a guest room?
20:00You want me to come and see your guest room?
20:03It's an awful one, neighborhood.
20:05Old money, young professionals, a smattering of Christ de Truss-Font, baby.
20:10Good eating.
20:14Same potholes, but no hurricanes.
20:18No witches.
20:20Everyone mangles French, just like you do.
20:23Come to me.
20:25Montreal.
20:26I am he, and he is me.
20:30That's baggage here.
20:31I get it.
20:33I 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 who 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.
20:56Okay.
20:56Makes sense.
20:57Louis, 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, and 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, Louis.
21:17Please, explain yourself.
21:18It's gonna be here and gone in a minute.
21:20No one reads anymore.
21:22The stat is like, whatever.
21:24100%.
21:25But, Armand, he is like mysterious.
21:27Yeah, there's some layers.
21:29You killed his roof at the Louvre.
21:32And all the boomers did the field to go see the other bottom of the farm with his resting batrice.
21:37I skipped that and I was going to help you see my beta boy in the corner of the room.
21:42I would do it.
21:44You have to do it.
21:47I would kill it.
21:48I would kill it.
21:49I would kill it.
21:50And I would kill it.
21:55The stat man.
22:05No, thank you!
22:11Oh, I know what infinitesimal means.
22:19It was raining.
22:20No, no, never fucking layup!
22:29Not a harlequin.
22:30Your sources are your sherpas.
22:34Your editor is your priest.
22:36Don't go to the F.
22:38Jesus, out.
22:40Why must you complicate it?
22:43Thank you, please.
22:45Can I be a please?
22:48Hello?
22:52Oh, I wanted the full-size box.
22:54Daddy.
22:55Is that a tooth?
22:56No, no, no, no.
22:57Is that a tooth?
22:57Is that a tooth?
22:57Is that a tooth?
22:57Is that a tooth?
22:58Thank you!
22:58Thank you!
22:59Thank you!
23:00Your camera is not period correct.
23:03I have a peanut allergy.
23:05Well, allergies are delusional.
23:07Take the mounts.
23:08You'll take whatever I give you.
23:11Yes, please.
23:16I'll take whatever I give you.
23:31Why is it?
23:34Not there!
23:55What the fuck?
24:06G. Minor. Slash.
24:11This is in 1979. Bela Lugosi is not dead.
24:14You don't need to finger her for five bars.
24:18You're hurting her.
24:20Is that a neighbor?
24:22Apologies for the squire.
24:24My man Atura will come in the morning with your replacement.
24:28And a new front door.
24:31More frequent showers?
24:39What was the question again?
24:41Why music?
24:42Hey! Hey!
24:45Why 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.
25:00Who better to refute the book than the man who wrote the book?
25:05The songs of my story.
25:07Your documentary, The Liner Notes.
25:09Ha! Liner Notes?
25:10I won two pollicers.
25:11I'm taking this thing to Cannes.
25:14Okay?
25:14I'm gonna be slapping Chris Rock and stroking my Oscar.
25:19The Brat sings, The Brat dies.
25:22The Great Laws are clear on this.
25:23I love the songs.
25:24More exposure for us.
25:26More risk for us.
25:27I don't have any problems in songs.
25:30The song is for them.
25:31It's not for us.
25:32He sings for himself.
25:35Make more.
25:36Only a coven leader can make more.
25:38The Great Laws are clear on that.
25:41First the book, now the singer.
25:43This is chaos.
25:44It does a bit of share with you.
25:46If he comes to your people,
25:48kill him.
26:36The Great Laws are clear on that.
26:56The Great Laws are clear on that.
27:19The Great Laws are clear on that.
27:36Dead blink, didn't try to run
27:39I got a real life word
27:44Sucking on the sun
27:46No time for blowing up
27:47No time for throwing up
27:49No time for blaving out
27:50Your phone is blowing up
27:52I got a real life word
27:54No time for iron my step brother
27:57Until he come
27:58Do, do, do, do, da, da, da
28:00Don't wanna smile, just wanna be your morning star
28:04Don't wanna learn at a tic-tac-dance
28:07Wanna stay in bed
28:08Eat like a girl
28:23Keep it scrolling
28:26Hi, Poppy
28:34I've been a bad boy
28:36Deep down in my heart
28:37I've kept a million dark secrets from the very start
28:40Give me a million more screams
28:43Yeah
28:43Means exactly
28:44What you think it means
28:46Do, do, do, do, da, da, da
28:49Don't wanna smash yourself
28:50You'll be your morning star
28:52Don't wanna learn at a fucking tic-tac-dance
28:55Wanna stay in bed
28:57Eat it black, let go rush
29:06Pick up the fucking tambourine
29:08From the alps of adequacy
29:11To the canyon of coup d'etat
29:13Two nights in a row
29:14My violin competing with his guitar for the solo break
29:18Two centuries waiting to share my music
29:22Two 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 wrapped itself around me like a jungle snake constricting its prey
29:41And a lifetime of blood-bartering overwhelmed the temporal lobe
29:46Muses 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 I had welded into armor
30:14The armor cracked
30:18The bridge buckled
30:21And the bonafide 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
30:41My bandmates began to feed
30:46And that sound I had been grinding them for was finally unleashed
30:52A euphoric grattiness spilling into the crowd
30:55Into their bodies
30:57Enveloping the venue
30:58A euphoric grattiness spilling into the crowd

31:38Which one of you is O'Dib before?
31:42What do you do?
31:44What did she take?
31:45Not her.
31:47Me.
31:48Get her on the ground.
31:50Her blood has...
31:53ecstasy.
31:54Did you get in her?
31:55I am!
31:56What the hell happened O'Dib?
32:01What the hell were you doing?
32:04I should have quit right there and then.
32:07Would have been a lovely footnote to my life, the band.
32:10But the muses were just beginning.
32:14You done this to me?
32:19I lost myself on stage for a moment.
32:23Seems you still lost.
32:26The song's gonna kill you.
32:28You know that, don't you?
32:29I can't die.
32:30Everything dies.
32:32You die.
32:33I die.
32:34She dies.
32:36She dies.
32:38Oh, he dies bad.
32:42I'm immortal.
32:44Yeah, you kill some wolves and fall in love, get the gift, fall in love, go to ground, get dug
32:50up and fall in love.
32:51You like some wet clothes and a coin-op dryer, just 265 years round and round.
32:58Why are you so sad?
33:00Why are you so sad?
33:01Thousands of fans loving you.
33:03I want millions.
33:05And that'll top off that heart of yours.
33:10Billions.
33:11Then why you always gotta make it so hard for someone to give it to you?
33:16Huh?
33:17Who told you that?
33:18Don't worry.
33:20They coming.
33:22Who's coming?
33:24Oh, they gonna tell you themselves.
33:27Who's coming?
33:29Great show, don't you?
33:30Who?
33:34You are listening to The Failures, Album 5, Side B.
33:39If you take nothing else away from your exorbitant purchase, heed this advice.
33:46Never play two nights in Detroit.
33:49You'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.
34:14Don't tell me to pose.
34:16Fuck you!
34:16There was a red carpet, a pap line, and a vampire DJ of some renown,
34:21seducing corporate employees, provincial influencers, and party crashing beautifully unwell.
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.
34:40Come on!
34:41Come on!
34:42Come on!
34:42Come on!
34:43Come on!
34:43Come on!
34:43Come on!
34:44Come on!
34:44Come on!
34:45The band is inside with Dan and the VIP purge.
34:49I'm giving the paps my pussycat, with no idea that I would be in a fang fight less than an
34:55hour later.
34:56No, no, no, no.
34:57I'm getting ahead of myself again.
35:00I arrive fashionably late, of course.
35:02State your name for the camera.
35:04Baby Jinx.
35:05Okay, baby.
35:06Tell me, why do you like the vampire Lestat?
35:09Like I'm gonna be in the movie?
35:11Oh, you're in it now.
35:12I am feeling good, surfing the sublime candy-flipped wave of the girl's blood.
35:19Hear him.
35:20Hear 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 is this guy?
35:30Because, like, rock and roll, it's dying.
35:32I sat there, soaking up her praise, along with the band, still somehow blind to the vampiric mysteries of their
35:39front man.
35:41So 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, chat it up with the floating girl on the ceiling you almost killed.
35:52Have sex with her in the elevator.
35:53Ah, I'm still not there yet.
35:56MDMA and LST.
35:58The Torval and Dean of 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 in the ER, they are, like, the doctor.
36:10And LST's the scalpel.
36:12I'm the scalpel, print the t-shirts.
36:15And so he, the scalpel, cuts into rock and roll's heart.
36:21Like, 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 and Mr. Duloc's memoir, did you?
36:39No mention of the scars on my chest either.
36:43Hair stopping way above my shoulders.
36:45And just for the record, no ticket pocket of mine ever had his initials inscribed onto them.
36:50I mean, these are the editorial wags of an insane person.
36:55Note to self-edit that out in the final version.
36:58Starting again.
37:00Vampires 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.
37:17Detroit.
37:38Bear, Russ.
37:50I'm a bit, uh, crossed. We were reminding each other the other night. Russ here has a hot mouth.
37:57And a strong pelvic floor. I admire your aim.
38:03Longface sucks.
38:05Russ wanted to apologize.
38:08What? Black licorice? Why do I have to feel?
38:15I like those ones.
38:17Franklin, 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 Bragmore.
38:34Our own farm under the floorboards.
38:37I'm not sure. What about tomorrow night?
38:40You're on the road tomorrow night.
38:43Yes, 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.
38:55Hmm.
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 bright nourish, Governor.
39:22Lilac.
39:37I have a blind spot when it comes to blood poisoning.
39:40I think a vampire of my stature would know better.
39:44But then there's that old saying.
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, looking for sex, looking for anything that radiated the fun that
40:12I sang about in my song, Long Face.
40:22Long Face sucks.
40:24Does it suck?
40:26I wondered.
40:27Did you have a point?
40:29And then I thought, ooh, they 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, Dan?
40:43They called corporate bullshit.
40:48Went to party upstairs.
40:52So I'm scoring dick pills in Mogadishu for a UN peacekeeper.
40:56When in walks Stuart Copeland, wearing a kufi and a mouthful of ammo.
41:01So I thought about having sex with Christine.
41:03And then I thought, it's all the way upstairs.
41:06And then I thought, I'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.
41:31That would be the taking of life.
41:32And next would be a good draining, leaving your victim near death unparalyzed for an unhurried escape.
41:37And after that, there's the petticoot, the little drink, the sip.
41:42And after those three, it's sex.
41:45So now you know, the fourth best thing a vampire can do to avoid thinking about the past is to
41:51have 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 Longface, which 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.
42:51Law 4.
42:52No vampire shall ever reveal his or her true nature to a mortal.
42:57And let the mortal live.
42:58You do know it's 2025.
43:03Face the wall, my dear. You'll not want to see this.
43:09The Tooth Team.
43:11The Fang Gang.
43:16I killed a pack of wolves when I was immortal.
43:20I'll most likely tell you about that later as I let it define me for a time.
43:24A normally confining architecture and a thrift store coven galvanized by medieval dogma wouldn't faze me in the least.
43:31I'm building a career that supports my well-being.
43:34But the drug blood in my sex legs and the distracting past my music had unleashed on me put me
43:40at a momentary disadvantage.
43:43I'm in charge of my work-life balance.
43:45Law 4.
43:46As if the Dulac Malloy memoir hadn't outed us all two years ago.
43:50The Belmac.
43:50As if my entire stage show wasn't a bawdy burlesque of is he or 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 boo boo dogs.
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 8th 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 man told the truth of your wedding.
44:37What the fuck does that even mean?
44:40I thought there was an after party on the asshole floor.
44:43I 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.
45:06Consider 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?
45:29CCTV.
45:30Ecoflex toilets.
45:31IMF freezing your accounts because you have the blood of a patricidal queen inside you.
45:36Hello again.
45:38We have to love you.
45:40Telemask will drag 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.
46:19After 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.
46:35And my vampire gift winged me away north of the rivers off of the country.
46:43But I was saved from such rational thought.
46:48Love will do that to you.
46:53Oh my god.
46:57I am sorry.
46:58No more.
46:59No more.
47:00No more.
47:03No more.
47:04No more.
47:05No more.
47:07No, no more.
47:08Spain is a lie in many places.
47:09My dear...
47:12tinham a beer after a visit.
47:20I got myself into something I can't get out of.
47:25Music's opened up to that show, but I'm not sure 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.
48:01My...
48:04Gabriela.
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, Ben.
48:32Fledgling.
48:34Lover.
48:37Mother.
48:40Listen to tracks from the Vampire List ad wherever you stream music.
48:46If you're still listening after the last hour, welcome back.
48:50So bring on the music.
48:52Give me a million more screams.
48:55Do you kill people?
48:57Give me a million more screams.
49:01Let's talk about your mother.
49:04I've been a bad boy.
49:05Deep down in my heart.
49:07My makeup.
49:08Gold for his mama and I can't.
49:10Give me a million more screams.
49:12Die, die, die, die.
49:16You are caught in great danger with this stuff.
49:18You stole my personal position.
49:21You hired my biographer.
49:24The song's in that about you.
49:30Shall we do it?
49:32Shall we scorch the mortal world?
49:37What do you think about the great conversion?
49:40Fucking stupid.
49:47You are listening to The Failures, album eight, side A.
49:57At the top of our first episode, we show a scene that is probably happening in real time
50:05after a bunch of catastrophic events have happened.
50:13If you are hearing this now, you must be a very privileged individual.
50:24What makes this season special is that it's still the same characters that you love and know from the previous
50:29seasons.
50:30We're just putting them in an entirely new world, and as they do in the books and as we do
50:34in this show,
50:35like, the world continues to crack open larger and larger.
50:39Ooh, ooh, ooh.
50:42Just like the plot changes, the whole attitude of the show changes,
50:47and we move into this completely crazy rock and roll world.
50:54He did it again.
50:55A lot of the beauty and elegance that you would usually see him surrounded by is gone.
51:01It feels really grungy and really rough and really raw,
51:05and so it was a very fun environment to be putting him in.
51:13Come to me.
51:14Montreal.
51:15I am he, and he is me.
51:18Louis and Lestat are FaceTiming, and you're probably going to get the sense that Louis is going to come over
51:22pretty soon.
51:22They'll probably get back together or, 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 Louis's watched
51:34just a ton of YouTube,
51:36and it's time off, you know?
51:38Like, cat videos.
51:41Probably Hungryly.
51:45Louis, do you know someone called Daniel Malloy?
51:47Well, Lestat finds out about the book, and then that completely throws all those plans out of the window.
51:52One of my favorite things about this second season of Interview with the Vampire is that I burned his laptop.
51:58I didn't know he had it saved in the cloud.
52:00Louis sets fire to a laptop to try and erase the book, but, like, no one told him about the
52:07cloud.
52:08I only found out it was coming out a month ago.
52:10You've known for a month, and you talk about me and it to a mortal?
52:13Well, yeah.
52:14Yeah, uh, yeah, gonna, but, you know?
52:17No, I don't know, Louis.
52:18Please explain yourself.
52:20Both Louis and Lestat are not necessarily happy with the way that either of them were portrayed in the book.
52:26It's like a mix of guilt and probably a sense of vengeance about it.
52:30Lestat sees that book come out, sees what he perceives are lies and distortions, mistruths, and he's like, you know
52:39what?
52:39I'm gonna set the record straight.
52:41Was he there in 18th century Auvers?
52:43He said you told him that.
52:44Did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
52:46No, and impossible.
52:49Daniel Malloy 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 an incorrigible need to find out what the truth is.
53:02Why do you like the vampire Lestat?
53:04Si el llega a tu pueblo, matale.
53:07I 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?
53:36I mean, Black Lives Matter is just a great song.
53:39It's about the first kill that Lestat made after he reconciled with Louis in New Orleans.
53:46Didn't blink, didn't try to run.
53:52Particularly in episode one, you do see that he's pushing and pushing to get this sort of moment of grace.
53:58To 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 of many.
54:16Muses appeared in my mind and in the now around me.
54:20He realizes that he was the one that was holding them back.
54:24So then all of a sudden it cracks open and the real thing starts to appear.
54:28And that sound I had been grinding them for was finally unleashed.
54:34He started it to be, I'm going to go and tell my story.
54:37I'm going to do a rewrite.
54:39This is my version of events.
54:40And it's evolved into something different.
54:43He's tapped into his past.
54:55Which one of you's OD'd before?
55:17That's all for me.
55:18That's all.алась
55:19That's
55:19all. I got
