Transcript

00:00I went to a Ross for the first time and I've now been to like four and it's the

00:05best. I have got a secret stash of Ross purchases. You hide your Ross dress for

00:09less purchases in the bathroom covers.

00:45Hello, who is it? Oh, I thought I was going to come on in. We are South Arcade. We're currently

00:54until doing the summer school. Yeah, we are Adobe Radio Summer School. We are three and

01:02a bit weeks into five weeks. We're in Chicago, which has got some crazy air stuff going on.

01:07It has. There's been some wildfires, so it's not very fun outside. No, no. It's a news update.

01:12We've been using this even more as a safe haven from out there and this is where we've been

01:18living for like three weeks. Yeah. I only recently worked out how to use the Wi-Fi, so it's been

01:24a very, let's just say we haven't been using, we were about to send a complaint and be like,

01:28it doesn't even have Wi-Fi and I literally found the router and I was like, guys, no one's

01:33even plugged it in yet. So that's been the. We used the TVs to watch the World Cup when

01:38we were still in it. Ouch. Very sad. Very sad props on cue. Yeah, that was not a good. At

01:48the time of filming this video, we lost to Argentina yesterday. It's still very fresh. It's still

01:53in the period of mourning. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I also, we also had some made some DIY. I didn't

02:03make that. I bought that. These, in case you can't tell, were made with some Crayola. You

02:10know, you never know when you need, you know, you're in the pub. We love to game but we haven't,

02:15we've got creative in our own right. Yeah. We haven't had a chance to game. Yeah. We actually

02:19usually do like a bit of like a racing game or something like that. Yeah. But we've also,

02:26we're not. I don't think there are any games on. No, I don't think there are. No. So we've

02:30been deprived. We'll cut that out. Sorry. Yeah. Sorry. Nothing wrong with it. I'm just saying.

02:34No, we've been doing compilations of 2000 hits though on them. Haven't we? That music.

02:39Yes. Yes. We have. We did have some. Some stimuli. But it's all like the, you know,

02:44and YouTube don't really have the rights to do the right playlist. Oh, right. Yeah.

02:48It was just 2000 songs, but it was just pictures of Lady Gaga's face. There you go.

02:54Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, like the ones where they made it in Windows Movie Maker. And it was like

02:57some guy's Instagram who, he was like, Gigi, star of sunglasses. Yeah. And he kept

03:02saying his name like everything. It was great. So shout out to him. We should do that in

03:06our 17th. We should do that. Just so people remember who we are. We can just start going

03:11through all the cabinets. Keep it, keep it open. Oh, sorry. That's it. We've got

03:22some shoes in there somewhere. Loads of storage for all the necessities. We've got some

03:26crisps. Some drinks. You've got to have like multi-vitamins and gummies and things. You

03:32don't want to get unwell on the road. So it's really important to stay. Yeah. I think we've

03:36got more snacks up here as well. Things like water. Yeah. It's mostly just storage to be

03:42honest with you. Empty space. Empty space. There's so much real estate. I won't lie. I think

03:47something might fall out this way. Oh no. Why don't check that out? So this is the. These

03:53are just really important to stay healthy and hydrated on the road. Do you know? I actually

04:01like my favourite is the rehab. You are. I was drinking and commiserating our football

04:08loss yesterday. So these have got electrolytes in and they're flat. They're lovely. Lovely

04:14everything. Very nice. I'm, I'm your standard basic. Yeah. She's got a gal. So I like the

04:19one. However, this is new and over and only over in the U.S. Yes. Called like Punk Punch

04:26which seems very on brand for us. And that one's pretty good too. You like that one too. That

04:29was pretty good. What about you Harry? Uh, rehab. Good for hangovers. Rehab. Yeah. That's what we've learned.

04:34That's important when you're on tour. I haven't, I haven't tried this yet. Electric blue. It's

04:41because it's shockingly smooth. Should we give it a crack on camera? Oh, I'd love to try a

04:45Lupin one. Let's do it. Thanks. Oh, I'm so sorry. Fresh one.

05:00Shockingly smooth. Zingy. How's it? It's made with real sugars. Oh, that's good. That's a bit.

05:08Oh, it's looking pretty luminous down there. It is pretty luminous, but it's quite nice.

05:13Oh my gosh. That's like when you have like candy store, store candy shop. Like it feels like

05:18I can tell it, I can tell it's real sugar. That's, that's one for when you're right.

05:22If you froze that in like the freezer, that's another story for the bus actually.

05:26Yes. I mean, I felt like you're about to. I was going to, I was going to say, speaking of

05:31freezing.

05:32Speaking of freezing. Speaking of freezing, we, um, we did freeze a monster, but it went everywhere.

05:43And actually that one, I don't want to keep this open for too long because it looks like it might

05:45explode.

05:46Should we, I think we should get out. What? No way.

05:49It's actually usually got all our speakers and Harry's laptop open.

05:54Yeah. Because we're unorganized and we love to make sure we're writing on the road,

05:58but we definitely could have done it at home. But you know, we don't like to sleep on releases.

06:03So we've just been trying to cook up the next song on this table, to be honest.

06:07It's mainly, yeah, singing and making the next songs on a laptop, songs, videos, whatever.

06:13And making Craig Davids. Craig Davids, which are, you don't have Craig Davids over here, do you?

06:19It's a shot of tequila followed by a shot of pineapple juice immediately after

06:24and it completely cancels the taste out. It's brilliant.

06:26And Craig David is a UK garage artist from the UK. I don't think he made it over here, did

06:31he?

06:31No, I think he did. But like, he got his name because his voice is so smooth.

06:36Oh right, and that's why it's called Craig Davids. Yeah, there you go.

06:39People always have them on the front, on the stage, and it's like, maybe half the time I can catch

06:45them.

06:45It is, it looked much cooler when I can catch them.

06:48There's just like a massive, I don't know about you, but I've just got a massive collection at home.

06:52Yeah, but I do keep them all. We do keep them.

06:54Yeah, someone actually made me the other day, I'd never seen it before one of these,

06:58but like, because I wear like the belt jeans, and they had made one of like a super, super long

07:03one that went around.

07:04So it was like some really like young girl lesser, and then I wore it at the show, I thought

07:08it would be nice.

07:09I want to show you, show you the camera of these.

07:11And then this is a new edition, hence with all the monster thing and stretch to our socials, I guess.

07:19But these are really cool. Someone's actually made it out of like monster tabs and made like guitars.

07:24I think there's a bunch of them, but this is good. This is, it's pretty.

07:27That's creative. That's creative. That's hell.

07:30There's also, um...

07:32Oh!

07:34Oh my, wait, is that the room? Oh yeah, look at this poster.

07:38We got this at the last show, it's so cool.

07:40Because I'm like big into anime and stuff. But it kind of looks like a game, doesn't it?

07:44It does. I'm trying to think what...

07:46I like it a lot. Is it Powerpuffco and stuff?

07:48Yeah, it's a little bit Powerpuff.

07:49Maybe no, it's something else, but I can't place what it is.

07:51It's pretty epic. But it is very cool.

07:52That's one of my favourite things.

07:54They were just a little plug for...

07:57I.G. of course.

07:58Brooke.

07:58Shout out Brooke.

08:00Brooke Ariart.

08:03Harmony, Harry, Olly, Cody.

08:04You guys are one of my favourite bands of all time.

08:06You guys from Rock.

08:08Your music goes absolutely insane and I can't wait to see what you guys do next.

08:11Please do a US headline tour. I'll be there from Rome.

08:14At risk of...

08:16It's just basically...

08:18More of them, more of the same.

08:22You know...

08:23Some beer though as well.

08:24You know, just balance them.

08:25And pineapple juice for your grape Davids.

08:28And bread.

08:29You know, though.

08:30We don't need to go into it. That's fine.

08:32This is where you get your Tito's.

08:35Tequila.

08:36More adult drips.

08:38Tequila.

08:38With freshly frozen blueberries.

08:40For a nice garnish.

08:41For like a sort of cocktail vibe.

08:44You know.

08:45We do love our...

08:45I love...

08:46Whether it's vodka and monster or tequila and monster.

08:50Yep.

08:50All those cocktails.

08:51We went to a tiki bar yesterday didn't we?

08:53Yes.

08:54What was it?

08:54Three Dots and a Dash.

08:55Three Dots and a Dash.

08:57It was like...

08:57I thought we were...

08:59I thought it was like hidden.

09:00We couldn't find it.

09:01Sounds like a good little secret.

09:02Yes, no.

09:03It was like underground.

09:04It was pretty cool.

09:04It was very dark in there.

09:05But it was...

09:07You like a sort of rum-based cocktail.

09:09They had a thing called a sip-apotamus.

09:11Which was...

09:11Oh yes!

09:12That was good.

09:12A massive hippo glass.

09:14It was like sixty dollars of like...

09:15It was like a fishbowl.

09:16You gotta try it.

09:17But we'll have to get...

09:18Sip-a-mop-apotamus.

09:19Sip-a-mop-apotamus is on here next time.

09:21Sip-a-mop-apotamus.

09:22Yeah.

09:22They did cocktails that you could buy...

09:24If you paid more you could buy the glass and take it home.

09:27Yeah.

09:27Which is pretty cool.

09:29You could have had a massive hippo head with the glass.

09:32So...

09:32You might not know...

09:34But fans get a rider every night.

09:36Which is where you ask for...

09:38What do you want to eat slash drink for the day.

09:42And...

09:42For context.

09:43That's why we have about eight bottles of vodka and tequila.

09:46That's...

09:47We've accumulated that over the space of three weeks.

09:49We do get a whole tequila and vodka.

09:52Every night.

09:54And we've had quite a lot of shows already.

09:56So I think we're doing pretty well.

09:58There is nine of us on here though.

09:59Yeah.

09:59There is.

10:00It's not just us.

10:01I promise.

10:01So that's okay.

10:02I feel like nine people can put a dent in a bottle of tequila.

10:05Tequila.

10:06Yeah.

10:06Pretty easily.

10:07And we have been so...

10:09Yeah.

10:09But we also get...

10:11A baguette.

10:13We get some prosciutto ham and other dry cured meats.

10:17And hummus.

10:19Cheeses.

10:20We get meats and cheeses.

10:21Always pleases.

10:22Really nutritious.

10:24We get hummus.

10:25We get...

10:28Turmeric shots.

10:29Yes.

10:30We're a big...

10:30Ginger shots.

10:31We believe, yeah.

10:32They're so savage out here.

10:34The ones in the UK are like these cute little chilled bottles that go down.

10:38Here they're like...

10:38You know the immunity ones?

10:40Yeah.

10:40Oh my gosh.

10:41Yeah.

10:41Savage out here.

10:43They didn't work because I got a bit ill.

10:45And now you're a little bit ill.

10:46And this air's not helping but...

10:48We move.

10:49We move.

10:50It's fine.

10:50It's okay.

10:51It's fine.

10:51Yes.

10:52This is Alex's bum.

10:55He's our guitar tech.

10:57Our playback tech.

10:58It feels a bit wrong.

11:00But...

11:01That's just...

11:02That's your standard bum.

11:03That's standard.

11:04You know, you get a bit of...

11:05These are interesting material, I must say.

11:08They're sort of microfiber-esque.

11:10I like it.

11:11I feel like I'm in like a...

11:12Same with the...

11:12Hype souped up tent.

11:14I'm gonna out our guitar tech.

11:17This is what's under his pillow.

11:19Nicotine pouches.

11:20Because you never know when you might need one.

11:22In the night.

11:23In the middle of the night.

11:23When you've had a bad dream.

11:24Up there, under there.

11:29Okay.

11:32Hello?

11:33This is Ted's.

11:34So this is our tour manager's bunk.

11:36This is one of the most important elements.

11:40This is controlling the temperature on the bus.

11:43Because we had it on the first...

11:46The third day, the aircon stopped working.

11:49Oh, the generator.

11:50And we were...

11:50The generator packed up.

11:51And we were...

11:52It got fixed very quickly.

11:53And I actually think it was down to us.

11:55So no...

11:56No yoga coach slander here.

11:58No yoga coach slander here.

11:58They were very helpful.

11:59But it went wrong.

12:00And we were in Texas.

12:02I should say, Brits in the heat.

12:03In a...

12:04In a hot van.

12:05It's...

12:06Everyone's temperance.

12:07It was a lot.

12:08It was very, very warm.

12:10Yep.

12:11So this is fundamentally, you get to choose the zone.

12:13So that's in here, or in there, or in there.

12:16And you just get to set the temperature.

12:18And that, I find, actually makes...

12:19We're Brits.

12:20We don't...

12:21We're not used to the concept of aircon.

12:22It makes a big difference.

12:24Yes.

12:25What other bugs were you saying?

12:27Coat hook.

12:28Coat hook.

12:29Because, although we've been here and it's been one of the hottest countries I've ever set foot in.

12:33It's also been raining when we were going down the East Coast.

12:37It was like heat waving New York and then it was like chucking it down like two days later.

12:40So you never know when you might need your coat.

12:42What were you going to say?

12:43No, no.

12:43I was going to say, I was literally...

12:45I took my suitcase out the...

12:48Coach like two days ago.

12:49Trying to be more organised in my life.

12:51You know, feel a bit more put together.

12:52Literally opened everything out.

12:54Sorted everything.

12:55And the heavens just went...

12:57I was just like, that's such my luck.

12:58And it's just a sign to not be...

13:02Organised.

13:03Just...

13:03Just grab whatever you can.

13:04Just leave it.

13:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.

13:05Exactly.

13:07They're all fairly...

13:08I feel like I'm in your way, man.

13:10Maybe I should quite...

13:11Why don't you open some of them?

13:13Oh, I'll open some.

13:14Okay.

13:15I'm scared.

13:15I don't even know what's in mine.

13:16I don't even think my...

13:18That's my one.

13:19This is Ollie's.

13:21This is my one.

13:22Oh, this is nice.

13:23But it'll...

13:24Nope.

13:25I didn't have an eye mask.

13:27So our guitar tech bought me headbands.

13:30That's cute though.

13:31That's wholesome.

13:31But it was too tight on my head.

13:33So it gave me like...

13:34It felt like my eyes were coming out of their sockets.

13:35So I couldn't use them.

13:37But you never know when you might need them.

13:38Also, something went wrong with my fan.

13:40So I was asleep in the middle of the night.

13:42Hold on.

13:43Mine does have their lights in as well.

13:44Bad.

13:46I was asleep in the middle of the night and then my fan just suddenly did this.

13:53I genuinely thought I was going into a blender as well.

13:57Anyway.

13:58This one is Hannah.

13:59Oh, lovely merch person.

14:01Aww.

14:01She's got a bit of home from home.

14:03I don't actually know what she calls her Teddy.

14:05No, I don't know.

14:06I feel like a bad friend now, you know.

14:08Lando.

14:09Let's go with Lando.

14:09She loves Lando Norris.

14:11She loves Lando Norris.

14:12She loves Lando Norris.

14:13I'm scared.

14:14Is your bank in any fit state to be less?

14:16I'm the messiest one.

14:18Oh my God.

14:18If there was an eighth dwarf, they would be called messy.

14:21Oh my God.

14:22Oh yeah, I'm not good at this thing, okay?

14:25And that's where she sleeps?

14:27I got all the clothes and I like a lot of things.

14:30And I like having pyjamas.

14:32I treated myself.

14:33I went to a Ross for the first time.

14:35Oh yes.

14:36And I've now been to like four and it's the best concept I've ever experienced in life.

14:40Ross dress for less.

14:41It's the best thing ever.

14:42It's good.

14:42The UK don't have them, so.

14:44No.

14:44What else have I got here?

14:46I've got...

14:46You've got two pillows?

14:47Yeah, man.

14:48I'm a pillow thief.

14:49Why have you got two pillows?

14:50Because we get to James' bank and see James'.

14:53Hello.

14:55Okay.

14:56Let's take a look on the other side.

14:57It was an ominous.

14:59Okay.

14:59This is...

15:00Cody.

15:02Right.

15:07Straight to the point.

15:08With a...

15:08No.

15:09I don't know.

15:10He's an arts and crafts kind of guy.

15:12Yes, he is.

15:13He's really good at drawing like tattoos and things.

15:15He is.

15:16That's alright.

15:17That's not helpful.

15:18That's cute.

15:18That's quite...

15:18That's quite sweet.

15:19That's quite wholesome actually, wasn't it?

15:21It would have been funnier if it counts.

15:23That would have been funnier, wouldn't it?

15:23Yeah, that would have been really good.

15:25Bailey, this is our...

15:26What's Bailey got going on here?

15:27Bailey says that behind here...

15:29Oh.

15:30Oh, don't mind me.

15:32But there's a window.

15:34And apparently, it's happened on more than one occasion.

15:37It's opened while we've been on the road.

15:39Oh shit.

15:40But, you know, he hasn't fallen out yet.

15:42So...

15:43We've still got him.

15:44He's definitely in the green room, right?

15:48Yeah, we left him on the interstate.

15:50Yeah.

15:52And last one is...

15:54Sound guy.

15:55Oh, James bought his own pillow.

15:57No.

15:57Because he said...

15:58He went to a Ross.

15:59Yeah.

15:59Yeah, bought...

16:00He said he bought a pillow because he...

16:02He wasn't a fan of the...

16:05They're feathery though.

16:06Right.

16:07The firm's a firm of pillow.

16:08You know what I mean?

16:08Over-stimulated.
