20
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.680
oh, my god, I've been
living in Texas now for a few years

21
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.920
and just taking in that Texas heat, drinking it up. Man, just

22
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:52.879
getting darker and more acclimated into this
heavy sun. You know. So people

23
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.920
over here complaining, Bro, it's
all it's ninety seven degrees. And that

24
00:01:57.040 --> 00:01:59.239
was a cold front in Texas last
week. They're like, oh, this

25
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.599
cold front. Come live in Florida. So I'm used to this, of

26
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.280
course, but it's like, this
isn't what California normally feels like. No,

27
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.680
man, but we had a blast, man. You know, we

28
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.759
just go up. They just do
our thing. Man, you know what

29
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.439
I'm saying, fire from the gods. We can't we can't perform in the

30
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:17.960
heat, but we call ourselves that
full ill know, right. And it

31
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:22.879
was funny over by Christine at the

He led a band called Savage Grace.

77
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.639
Then they just came out with a
new album. They were a thrash metal

78
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:20.600

was at all their shows. I rode

79
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:25.759

friends with them. But one show at

that day because I knocked my teeth
out. Fa I ended the gig,

84
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:49.240

I hit the ground on that last note.

85
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:54.160
Well that's a fucking rock moment,
right. So you know I tell

86
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:57.959
