we're on tour right now on our
Headlining tour with terror Jesus piece in here the knife and we're going to show you around our van
This is
The driver's seat. You can tell I wasn't driving last because I always keep the wheel as low as it can go
And I always scoot the seat up because I've got little legs
It's very messy we have been on tour now for
Three and a half weeks or so. So it's garbage is full. We got honey for
People who are sick we have tums for sick more medicine. You can definitely tell that it's been a cold tour
Tech deck air freshener is pretty standard except for all the trash. We always try to keep a catch the water in the van
These are actually
gifts that our friend Kobo brought us try to get the garbage our boy from
Japan our friend Koba sings for a bankable to the grave he flew
He flew over to
America to hang out with us on tour for a couple days and he just left recently
So these are some gifts that he left us
Driving is usually split pretty equally I know our drummer PacSun does a lot of the driving
He used to
More so than he does now now it's a it's a little bit more even but all of us drive except for our guitar player
Isaac
Isaac join the band when he was too young to drive and he didn't have his license
So when he got his license, we kept the joke going that he was not allowed to drive and he still isn't allowed to drive
As far as radio
Our radio does not work a lot of headphones
But I'm not talking to each other
Every time we tell people that they're like, oh my god, you're crazy. Like, how do you do it? It does suck
But this band has just never had a radio our old man had a radio and this is a funny story one day
We were on a tour where like it was freezing outside and it was our bass player Kevin's birthday, which is Valentine's
and
He was like play that song I like and I went to turn the radio up
And I pulled the entire radio out of the van and I did not mean to and I didn't pull but it just felt
Collapsed so we actually haven't had music for a very long time
I usually just listen to headphones. I've been listening to a lot of
honestly the bands that were on tour with I
Know a year of the knife is bringing out a new record soon
And I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of it before it comes out. So I've been obsessed with that
And I really like to listen to the bands that were on tour with when we're not playing shows
I don't know it's weird. But I know our guitar player does the same thing? Okay, so this is kind of how we sleep
Like I said, excuse the mess
This is a camping mattress, we took out one of the benches and replaced it with this camping mattress. We call it the dad pad
It's our drummers. He brings in he's looking up to let everybody sleep morning. So you usually have two sleeping here
Which our merch girl is actually my girlfriend. So we usually take this spot sleep together, but this is very convenient
I know that I've seen several other bands do this as well. I
Would say the only bad thing about this right here is it gets a lot of foot traffic?
So it tends to get pretty dirty people coming in and out trying to get back to the benches and whatnot. I'll hop in
The way that we have it set up now is
Everybody has a place to lay down if you're not driving or sitting in the front
So we have two right here one one and it goes all the way back
We have an extra dad pad right here in case you stay at a friend's house
We'll pull that in put it on the ground that'll sleep an extra two, so that helps a lot. We have more water and
Something that I'm really really bad about in the band gets really really mad at me for is I just stuff all my clothes
So like under the bench is just nothing but my clothes
But yeah, it's pretty standard I think from here on out
We're going to put this pad in the back and leave that bench up here so that there's not as much foot traffic
Something that I I used to do. I haven't done it as much on this tour
This tour is a little bit more
Crowded than the tours that we've usually done as far as the van because we brought more people to some but I'm usually hide food
everywhere
like we'll go out to eat and
I will get something to go and then I'll just hide out to go bucs somewhere in the van
So like if at any point, I'm hungry. I'll just pull food
I don't know and everybody's like where do you keep pulling this food from?
But yeah, that's that's basically if we usually have a ton of wires because chargers are going all over the van
we got a lot of
10-foot chargers so
I cleared those out of the way because it's just a jumbled mess, but I'm usually sleeping right here
And I've usually got wires over me and under me and like everywhere that they can't be. This is a
This is usually Kevin our bass players bench
We've got a lot of shoes
Shout out to vans. We were lucky enough to play the Vans headquarters the other day in California. That was a lot of fun a
Neck pillow, he's got like three or four pillows on this tour. I don't know why but I don't even have one I
spilled Mountain Dew all over my old pillow and I threw it in the garbage and
He's just back here sleeping with four pillows. This is usually our team Colin. He sleeps right here
He doesn't really have anything
This is actually merch that we took out of the trailer and put here because we were out of room in our trailer
Kevin's got videogames. He just bought us a Nintendo switch and he's making me really want to buy one as well. But uh
This is zelda breath of the wild he said it was one of the best video games ever played so he's got that back here
Empty cigarette packs everywhere
Back here
This is typically our guitar player Cole's bench, but he shares it with our drummer packs and a lot
So we've got packs on sleeping bag. And then we also have Cole's slides
He never goes anywhere without his slides
He usually puts those on as soon as we're done playing
So we use this area. It's kind of extra storage
So it looks very jumbled
but we have
These our show clothes these are extra snacks that usually just get stepped on
We have a box of like posters and old shoes
Like I said the Nintendo just a bunch of mess this is usually how
Anybody that's slipping here, they usually get into the back open the door and hop on over
It's just easier than having to crawl over everybody else
So which is why these chips get demolished and stepped on thanks for taking a look at the van. I'm Brian
It's been come on css.show. I'm sure we'll be on tour at some point near you. We never stop touring
By our album laugh tracks it's available literally everywhere. Thanks
