00:00Come on in. Hey, I'm Tim from True North. We're out here on the road with cab

00:18stand, colorblind, and not enough space. And this is our RV. So most of us in the

00:25band usually split up the driving. A couple of us like driving late at night

00:29when it's quiet and a couple of us will just fall asleep. So me and Joel, our

00:33guitar player, only do the morning shifts and then Michael and Sean only do the

00:38night shifts. So usually we have somebody in the passenger seat at all times just

00:41kind of keeping the driver company or putting on tunes or just doing their own

00:45thing. When it's super late at night usually that person will be asleep so

00:50that they can take over driving but yeah. So in terms of what we listen to it is

00:56all over the map. Whether it's hardcore or hip-hop or 80s jazz or sometimes even

01:03podcasts or comedy. There's really no telling what we're gonna be listening to

01:06up here but whatever keeps the driver going. Alright so up here we've got our

01:11guitar player Joel and he's up here in what we like to call the nook and this is

01:16the most desired spot on the entire RV because it's a comfy cozy little cave so

01:22usually at least three of us are fighting for it at any given time. Yeah so

01:26usually there's just one person up here it feels a little bit sus to have more

01:29than one up here especially if we're moving at night but it's definitely the

01:33coziest area because if you're in the back you're kind of bouncing up and down

01:37with any bumps that the RV hits. Kind of same with these two honestly it kind of

01:41feels like you're on like a roller coaster. This for whatever reason is just like

01:45very neutral so you don't really feel the RV moving too much so that's why

01:49everyone fights over it it's definitely the coziest spot in the RV. So this is

01:53the main lounge area and as you can see we got Sean our guitar player and Morgan

01:59our bass player hanging out up here. This usually is a table and if we didn't

02:04have such a late morning today it probably would be right now. Usually

02:07people are hanging out here working on their laptops or playing card games or

02:10just kind of you know hanging out and then this also doubles as a bed it pulls

02:16out but other than that it's usually just Morgan hanging out on his phone. So I'm

02:22honestly not usually the one that sleeps here. This is usually Tim's bed. It

02:27doesn't really change other than that I think he might like this spot. This table

02:31has gone through a couple different members. I know our videographer

02:37photographer Jacqueline likes sleeping on here. I believe Sean actually slept on here

02:42last night. Tried to. Tried to. We do actually due to space we do sometimes have

02:50somebody sleep on the floor. We have a mattress that usually goes down that's

02:53usually Joel that sleeps there. I am usually sleeping in the back there either

02:59with Michael or Sean because I am the best cuddler. Well I actually did the the

03:04last shift so I drove till 4 30 in the morning and then so I actually did sleep on

03:09the floor for a bit. Then when Joel got up to start driving he gave this spot up

03:13and I tried to extend my legs but as you can see kind of a little bit too tall for

03:21this. So that was unsuccessful. So this is our pantry our dedicated food cave and as

03:29you can see it's filled with all the goodies you could possibly want. So we've got

03:33our popcorn that our content person Jacqueline loves to make almost every

03:39night and makes the van smell real nice. We love peanut butter and jelly

03:44sandwiches in here and that's one of the main things that we make or at least

03:49those of us who don't really get involved in the kitchenette. And yeah it's

03:54kind of filled with disordered stuff you know we've got tortillas, we've got nuts,

03:58even tuna for when people make little wraps and of course beef jerky. And then

04:05over here just kind of miscellaneous stuff there's usually always a bunch of

04:08bottles of water which we basically steal from the venue every night depending on

04:13if the other bands need them. And then over here we've got a PS5 and some other

04:18stuff but we've actually never set the PS5 up this entire tour. I think we all

04:23thought that we'd have a lot more downtime than we really do. So this is our

04:26kitchenette area and it's got a petrol stove or a propane stove, my apologies, a

04:31sink and even a fridge and freezer. And so we do a little bit of cooking. Usually

04:37Joel our guitar player and Jacqueline are the two that cook and the rest of us kind

04:42of just snack. So up here in the fridge we have some beer and you know maybe

04:50Morgan might be having a beer. Not all of us are drinking a lot on tour. It's usually

04:54just one or two. And then you know we've got some yogurt in here. I think Joel likes to keep

05:00healthy with the berries. Maybe he'll make a smoothie with that. I have my own

05:04yogurt as well. And then of course the finishing touch on any meal. A good hot

05:09sauce. So up here in the freezer let's see what we have. We have some rice which I

05:13think Joel and Jacqueline used to make some delicious rice bowls. Maybe some wraps. And

05:19then of course more smoothie ingredients. We've got mixed berries and bananas. And

05:24then every once in a while someone will have a frozen meal. And then a microwave

05:29actually as a matter of fact as well which is how we make the popcorn every

05:32night. So yeah it's kind of hard to use the stove especially while moving. But

05:39every once in a while you know Michael might make some coffee or somebody might

05:42use it. And we actually have a blender as well. I'm not sure where the rest of it is. But

05:46sometimes smoothies are made throughout the day as well. Up here just kind of

05:53miscellaneous junk. The RV did come with some mugs and bowls. But usually we just

05:59use paper or plastic cutlery. And that's where we keep it. And of course coffee.

06:07So over here we have the bathroom which is small and tight. But when you're on the

06:14road it does the job. We got a toilet. No pooping of course. And we have a sink where

06:21you can just kind of brush your teeth. Although we never use the water because you

06:25never know what's in it. So we usually just use bottled water instead. And then over here

06:30we actually do have a shower in here. But none of us have ever showered. We usually just

06:36keep this as a storage for any stinky items like our shoes after the show or dirty clothes.

06:44We'll just kind of toss in here. And it's almost more like a closet than a shower.

06:48Alright so back here we have the master bedroom. And as you can see Michael has made himself

06:54quite at home back here. This used to be pretty bouncy and uncomfortable. But luckily we came upon this

07:00clean size mattress topper. And it turns it into the coziest little area. It also has become a

07:08little bit of a storage in and of itself. There's a lot of things on the floor. Usually people keep

07:14their backpacks back here. It's not the tidiest but it keeps the front area a lot more clean.

07:19So typically back here there's usually at least one or two of us because it's definitely more spacious

07:27than anywhere else if you're going to lie down. I normally have my Switch playing Zelda or

07:36lots of Pokemon. You know a few of us love the Pokemon app on the phone so lots of ways to find

07:44to kill time. Just on a long drive. If we're not playing like Tim said earlier if we're not playing

07:51cards up in the on the table there I'm usually back here or in the nook up there playing Switch.

07:57And some people might watch a movie on their phone just kind of hang out. It gives you a little bit

08:03of space to just kind of detach a little bit. Thanks so much for coming and hanging out on our RV.

08:10True North appreciates you for checking this video out. And we are just about to release our second

08:16album. It's called Either Way the Sun's Exploding and it's going to be out May 30th 2025. So it might

08:21already be out by the time you're watching this video. And other than that thank you so much for watching.
