00:00Hello! Oh my goodness, come on in. Okay, so this is really crazy. The last time that we were on

00:20Bus Invaders, we were in a van, and it was so many of us packed into. We were Lauren Babbick

00:25and David Michael Frank. Now we have upgraded quite a bit, so. Thanks to our fans. Yes. So yeah,

00:31we couldn't do this out of you guys, but yeah, I guess we'll show them around, yeah? This is the front.

00:39That's it! So we actually have a kitchen now. We have, we're able to cook things and make things

00:44for ourselves, which is a huge upgrade for us. Microwave. For ramen and reheating food. The biggest

00:52thing that I've been eating on this tour is cheese roll-ups. So I've been taking tortillas,

00:56filling them up with cheese, and then we have this really good hot sauce.

01:02This is my favorite. Everybody on the tour has been obsessed with this.

01:07Oh yeah, so I'd love to talk about the organization. So I am suffering from mania,

01:12PTA, uh, ADHD, PTSD, PTSD from being on tour all this long. OCD and ADHD, and it's really difficult for

01:21me to like wake up in the morning because I wake up last and I'll, I'll, or in the middle of the

01:25night and get out and it's just like a wasteland and everybody will have cups or open bottles or

01:31this or that. It drives me nuts. And you can tell it says cups only drinks, drinks, drinks,

01:36and they still can't follow the fucking instructions. It's for cups because I mean, look, these things are

01:43nice and, but they do get a little bit bumpy. So when you have seven people trying to have a drink yard

01:47or whatever, it's just waiting for an accident to happen. There's like two cupholders over there.

01:51So we have storage back here. It's super organized as you can see, and then drinks for cupholders up here.

01:58Yes. And then I reinforced it with some gaff tape. So it ain't going nowhere. It's nice and good.

02:02I should have got four of those, but had I done that, I guarantee you it still would not be cups.

02:06People would still be putting their own personal things in front of it, but that's, you know,

02:10so this right here is life with other people, the Polaroid camera. I'm taking pictures for fans

02:15on tour. This is a thing that we give away to fans on our fundraising stream. So right before we leave

02:21for tour, we do a fundraising stream where we raise money for our tour and they can buy like a Polaroid

02:27album with a bunch of like collections of Polaroids. And it's really cool. So I've been taking those.

02:31This is snacks and everything from our bus VIP. So since we have a bus now, we are able to bring on

02:3910 VIPs before each show. They get a really intimate performance and everything. And we offer

02:44them like snacks and stuff as well. So this is for them. And we just had that. So, and this is

02:48non-alcoholic by the way. So over here in the corner is our CB radio station because the cab for driving

02:57is actually detached. So like you can't open this to talk to them. You can get some airflow through that.

03:02So we have our CB radios here and we have all our handles. Do you remember everybody's handles were?

03:07Oh, what were you? Dudeknockers. I'm Dudeknockers. She's Dudeknockers. I'm Silver Fox F-boy.

03:14And our TM is Purple Dragon. Our sound guy is Big Bear. But mostly we use the radios to just say,

03:21sir, this is a Wendy's. Yeah, yeah. Most of the time. Yeah, yeah. That's really cool.

03:24Wait, hold on. What's Ben though? What's Ben? Oh, he's Musclebound Butters and Quentin is

03:29Trash Panda. Yes. That's our whole crew and band and all of our call signs.

03:33What's next? What's next? Snacks? What do we got? What are we eating on? Mostly, mostly chips,

03:40bananas, mac and cheese, a lot of rolls. You know, just really healthy food. Yeah.

03:45Like just a full diet of bread, bread and bread. And sodium.

03:51Yes. So the TV right now is a little bit blocked with waters and stuff.

03:56We just threw that stuff up because it was down here. We're trying to like be clean for you guys,

03:59but really all this shit is usually down here. And we play Super Smash Bros on the TV with the

04:06Wii. Wii? Switch. Switch. Did you say Wii? Yeah. We play the Switch as well. We play the Switch.

04:13Um, you guys were watching Deadpool yesterday. Yeah, I watched Deadpool yesterday. Yeah.

04:16Uh, we don't listen to a lot of music. I think just because like, that's the job. So that's the last

04:21thing we want to do is listen to music. But if we are, we've been listening to a lot of Sleep Token.

04:25Uh, the new Day Seeker is really good. Yeah, yeah. Um, yeah. Lots of different guys.

04:30And uh, so down here, let's see what we got. Everybody's personal. I don't know about their personal.

04:34Oh, personal. Looks like we've got lots of ramen. Mine is literally just all throat coat tea.

04:41This is, I drink a lot of throat coat tea, but not that much. So I'm going to take it all home with me.

04:47Think down here, who's, who's eating so much? Dr. Pepper, that's definitely Jeff, our sound guy.

04:51Uh, protein for the muscle. The dudes that like to go to the gym. This one's got like,

05:01sorry, excuse me. Massage guns, back massagers, because we're all getting old.

05:06Ready for the fridge tour. It's really great. Um, let's see. We don't have much in here. We kind of

05:13just threw everything away from our fridge because something was smelling and we weren't sure what it

05:16was. So it's kind of empty right now. Um, but we have Dr. Pepper because that is Jeff, our sound guy's

05:23one requirement. He literally has like a Dr. Pepper hat, Dr. Pepper shirt. He is obsessed with Dr. Pepper.

05:28Um, we do have beer, but we don't really drink very often. We're not drinkers or partiers in any

05:34sense of the word. Um, I always ask for fruit at every, uh, stop. So they give me, usually it's like

05:42a big fruit bowl. I really prefer like a nice, like mix of things, but it's really good to like

05:46hydrate, but also eat after a show. So I love having fruit nearby. Um, our general rider has

05:52Swiss cheese and ham. And then this is a leftover subway sandwich from earlier that I'm going to

05:57finish. And energy drinks are a big thing in this crew. I don't, uh, some of us are coffee people.

06:03Some of us are energy drink people. The freezer is also pretty empty, but I always keep ice cream on

06:07hand because I'm a freak and I have to have ice cream every single day. It's kind of my one

06:11requirement. I have, uh, sorry, I'm gagging right now. Our generator went down for a little bit in

06:19the fridge. A lot of the food in the fridge went bad and I have like a, a, a fish trigger and like,

06:26it smells like dead fish. So I have to leave. I'm going to puke. Okay. So I'm not too sure where this

06:31one came from, but I think it's supposed to be Quentin or Quentin's dad. I honestly can't quite

06:37tell this one was actually handed to me while I was playing on stage and I thought it was so cool.

06:43It has my outfit from the circus music video. And then in the corner, it says for my number one

06:48singer for my number one band that I thought it was really sweet. So we taped it up there.

06:53Over on here, we, uh, every single VIP, we play hangman to guess the title of our upcoming album.

07:00So it is called when love dies. We don't know when it's coming out yet, but hopefully this year,

07:04but we'll find out this generally is used by everybody, depending on the day. For a while,

07:10we did have a computer set up here because we were trying to get a new original song done

07:16in time for our next tour in Europe. Um, but we have since pulled that off and now it's kind of just

07:22more like for eating, signing posters. Um, I sit here during our VIP. So it's for, for a lot of different

07:29things. And then we, uh, we bought this 30 pound kettlebell weight. Um, but actually we tend to

07:35stay outside of planet fitness. That tends to be our mode of train, not mode of transportation,

07:41but method of how we, how we get around. Um, they have showers and we're able to work out and

07:46everything. So it's pretty sweet. Um, we've only got kicked out like twice. So this is another one of

07:51Brad's manic ideas. He got a shoe rack really early on and we put it here. So everybody has to take off their

07:58shoes when they come in. Obviously I'm wearing shoes now, but most of the time we don't have

08:02shoes on. It gets messy very fast and we are trying to be clean people, but we do have a vacuum that we

08:08go through with every once in a while and try and get it clean. All right. This is where we sleep.

08:13This is Bradley's bunk. He gets the super bunk, which is also multifunctional as a couch. So if we

08:18have too many people, you can also sit here and hang out. Um, but it is Bradley's. He gets the really big

08:24bunk. So we're all jealous. This bunk up here is not assigned to anybody, but we keep our laundry

08:30bags up here. So we have all of our laundry bags and do our laundry every once in a while. Um, we have

08:38Gerard, our TM, Ben, our guitarist, Ethan, our merch guy. This is, I'm sorry, I have to show you this.

08:47I bought this for Jeff's birthday. It's a unicorn blanket. Jeff is our sound guy. Obviously this is my

08:52bunk. I really like to use a silk pillowcase because it's better for my hair and causes less

08:57breakage. Um, it also sleeps a lot better, but man, it gets messy really fast in here. I also use it for

09:03mostly like storage and things. So, um, and then Quentin, our drummer is down on the bottom and then in

09:10here, it's just a toilet. Nothing too interesting. Um, also has our, uh, we keep our cleaning supplies

09:17like our broom and our, uh, vacuum back here as well. Okay. So we're in kind of like the bathroom

09:22area. Um, I would say it's more like a storage box for us. There is a shower in here, but we don't

09:28really use it. You'll see that it's full of all of my stuff. Um, I keep it, keep all my outfits in

09:34there as well as my wings because I come out in wings for Maleficent. Um, we keep our acoustic guitars

09:39for the VIP performance in there. So it's really kind of more of a storage thing. And then over here is

09:44where I tend to get ready for, I was actually getting ready right before you guys showed up,

09:48um, getting ready for doing my makeup. I definitely do all my own hair and makeup. Um, but everybody

09:54else uses this as well. So, uh, Quentin comes back here and does his makeup and everything.

09:58I think we're all pretty like theatrical people. So getting ready together is kind of like a fun

10:03thing for all of us. I just wanted to say thank you so much to all the fans that made this possible.

10:08Like this is such a huge upgrade for us and it means the world. If you want to be able to help support

10:12us on this, come up, come watch a fundraising live stream right before our tours, or if you want to

10:18do VIP for any of our future tours, it really helps us out. And that's what pays for us to be able to

10:24have all of this. So thank you so much for watching and we'll see you next time.
