00:00And these TVs do work but they only play YouTube videos of Judas Priest.
00:05I sleep on this like a Vietnam vet.
00:39Hello? Hey! Welcome aboard!
00:45There's Bunny. She's the guardian of the groove. Isn't that right?
00:51Who's that? Come on, Bunny.
00:52Hey, my name's Pepper. I play in a band called Corrosion of Conformity.
00:56You might have seen the first one we did 10 years ago, something like that.
01:01Things don't change much. Here we go. Back in the saddle. Come on.
01:06I guess since last time, we have two TVs now.
01:10But guess what? Neither one of them work. Awesome.
01:15This thing normally slides out but we're in Chi-town today on a busy street
01:20so this thing will not be sliding out today. We're keeping it tight. Come on, buddy.
01:26Come on.
01:27Come on.
01:28Wiggles.
01:28Come on.
01:30Come on, buddy.
01:32Come on.
01:33She's like, I don't want to go in the back.
01:35So after a show, this is where the action happens.
01:41We hang out here and these TVs do work but they only play YouTube videos of Judas Priest.
01:48That's all we watch.
01:51Only Judas Priest is allowed on this remote.
01:53That's a fact.
01:54You can ask anybody in the band.
01:56So that's what we do.
01:57And Wiggles approves.
02:02She's been everywhere.
02:03Here's our illustrious kitchen full of lots of healthy snacks as you can see.
02:10This one's kind of pimping because we got two fridges.
02:13So when it comes down to the rider of what we get backstage, we don't do that anymore.
02:19We take the moolah.
02:21So then we just pull over to Walmart and grab whatever the hell we want.
02:25Mostly beer and water.
02:27You'll see here.
02:29It's a tricky little one.
02:31That's where the good stuff is.
02:35Buddy's got his beer in there too.
02:37But yeah, we just take the money and nowadays you can get DoorDash and all that stuff.
02:44So we don't even, you know, we can have Walmart delivered to the bus.
02:47That's even better.
02:49Nothing special.
02:50Here's some snacks.
02:52I mean, here's some stuff we got in Canada from a fan.
02:57Here's some leftover cookies that were made for us in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
03:02Wonderful cookie person.
03:04From what I was told.
03:05And then you got your cabinets up here.
03:07I mean, we're minimalists.
03:09We keep it real simple.
03:13It's like a, yeah.
03:18There you go.
03:20Got some healthy snacks in there.
03:24Yeah, we're just rolling.
03:26And so yeah, we drink beer up here and then everybody sleeps here.
03:30As usual, I stay in the back nowadays because I'm old.
03:33There's a tiny toilet.
03:36Oh, you see in there?
03:38Good luck with that.
03:39The bus rule is just number one only.
03:44Everybody knows it.
03:46We got more storage here, but it's all locked up.
03:50Bunks, bunks, bunks, bunks, bunks.
03:54Guitars everywhere.
03:57We've become guitar freaks again.
04:00We got lots of junk bunks.
04:01Normally, if I was on tour, this would be the bunk I would stay in.
04:06No particular reason other than just good luck.
04:10You know, you get things stuck in your head.
04:12You want to be the same way every time.
04:14But yes, we have lots of junk bunks.
04:17But yes, we have lots of junk bunks.
04:18Where the junk goes.
04:19Lots of junk.
04:22Yep.
04:24Cute little birthday card some girl made for me.
04:29Yeah.
04:30Guitars up here.
04:32More guitars.
04:33And then the back lounge is where I sleep on this like a Vietnam vet or a sailor.
04:44That thing's about 20 inches wide.
04:48Don't know why.
04:49I just like it.
04:50This is my zone.
04:50The only reason I do that nowadays is because I'm trying to keep my throat from getting messed
04:55up and being with the rest of the guys sometimes.
05:00You know, somebody gets sick or whatever.
05:02So I just kind of quarantine myself back here.
05:04And so far it's worked.
05:06And this is, gosh, I don't even know.
05:09We've done, where are we at?
05:12That many shows in a row.
05:13So we had a show this day at Sweetwater.
05:17So that wasn't a day off.
05:18So we've had that many shows, which I normally don't do.
05:21But the pipes feel all right.
05:23And then I got lyrics up here because I forget things sometimes.
05:26So I write them out just to keep them organized in my head.
05:31Various set lists up here.
05:34Guitar there.
05:35Guitar here.
05:38The awesome Positive Grid spark amp, which anybody in the band needs.
05:43If they're on a tour bus.
05:44I can play all night long.
05:46Love it.
05:48Miscellaneous pedals that I'm messing with.
05:50Just always tinkering.
05:51Tone chasing.
05:53You know, keeps me off the streets.
05:56Yeah, that's about it.
05:58Oh, yeah.
05:59And then a closet full of black shirts.
06:02Right?
06:03See them.
06:06Yeah.
06:07We got it stripped down, man.
06:09Light and lean.
06:11Mainly, it's just a lot of guitar playing.
06:14A lot of guitar playing.
06:15Because I can't.
06:17And you can sit around here.
06:18And this guitar was gifted to me the other day by the Does It Doom guys.
06:24Woodwright guitars.
06:25He's awesome.
06:26Steve.
06:26And I love that thing.
06:28Been playing it every day.
06:30And yeah.
06:30Just noodling.
06:33You know.
06:33Sticking on some solid ideas.
06:35Write some lyrics sometimes.
06:37They got notebooks in there.
06:39And that's about it.
06:40It's pretty minimal.
06:41We keep it stripped down.
06:43Okay.
06:44Well, check it out.
06:45Glad you got to see our humble abode here.
06:49But yeah.
06:50Keep in touch with COC, man.
06:51You can find us on all the social medias and everything.
06:53And we're just having a hoot and holler.
06:55And we'll be back on the road in July.
06:57Heading west to California.
06:59See ya.
07:12Bye.
07:20Bye.
