calvaris nice here at Welcome to Rockville. How's it feel amazing? That's our

7
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:23.599
first time in Florida, really really
exciting. It's beautiful. It's very hot,

8
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:27.760
but very nice. And this this
location is insane, like this speedway

9
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:32.480
it was driving here had we got
to drive on the tracks to get to

10
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.439
the stage. I know, right, it's amazing because it feels all right,

11
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:38.480
that's how it feels like to be
on the tracks? Is that wild

12
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:42.000
to me? That's more iconic than
being here is like, hey, I

13
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:47.439
get to drive on the track to
get to the press area. Yeah,

14
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:52.359
definitely, we felt we felt there
totally. And yeah, it's hot in

15
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:57.159
Florida, ain't it. It is
tough to play music in Florida, especially

16
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:02.480
if you're all in all black.
Yeah, So have you felt the pain

17
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:08.080
of the Florida heat yet a little
bit a little bit yeah, yeah,

18
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:15.479
and then there's the storms, like
there was like wicked storms that happened last

19
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.319
night while we were sleeping. That's
how Florida is. Like we could have

20
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:22.759
a storm like in five minutes from
now with it like this, you would

21
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.039
never know, and then it's gone
like ten minutes later. Quite similar to

22
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:29.599
the UK. In the end,
you'll have beautiful weather and then boom like

23
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:35.719
massive storm. Well yeah, UK
is definitely bipolar. Like every time I

24
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.120
do download, I'm like, fuck
me, Yeah, I'll bring a hoodie.

25
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:43.439
One interview, I'm wearing a hoodie, the next interview, I'm taking

26
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:46.960
it off. The next one,
I'm putting it on. Like with every

27
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:51.199
five minutes your weather changes. Sounds
about right. Yeah, So what do

28
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.319
you got going on now that we
need the listeners to know about anything new

29
00:02:54.439 --> 00:03:00.759
or coming up after Rockville here?
Yeah? Cool. So, like we're

30
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:06.520
currently on tour across the US.
We're doing a co headline tour with Vukov,

31
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.520
who are from Glasgow, Scotland.
Yeah, and yeah we've before before

32
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:14.199
this festival, We've we've done two
dates with them, so it's kind of

33
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:17.360
just the start of the run and
they played this festival as well. Actually,

34
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.199
so we're kind of touring around together. We've got the same van and

35
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:24.479
stuff, so we're kind of moving
as a unit. Nice and yeah,

36
00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:29.919
they're like super cool guys and that's
important right there, Like right, you

37
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.439
know, you go out on tour
with somebody, they can either be assholes

38
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:38.680
or they could be real cool blokes
and uh and well yeah exactly, I

39
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:40.120
mean, yeah, we don't have
that problem because they're all so lovely,

40
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.879
right exactly. Yeah, it makes
all the difference, doesn't it. Yeah,

41
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:49.719
Like touring conditions need to be right
for everyone to be happy, and

42
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:53.400
it's it's I feel like it can
be a difficult mechanics sometimes because there's so

43
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:57.719
many people. There's so many like
needs for everyone, you know, and

44
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:02.719
keeping everyone happy is can be a
difficult challenge. Oh but different you know,

45
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:11.759
mental ways of thinking, different egos
all just like yeah, it's but

46
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.719
yeah, we're we're in good hands
with these guys and we love them.

47
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:16.480
And they're an awesome band as all, you know, like it's super cool.

48
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:19.120
Yeah they are, and they were
I interviewed them before. They were

49
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:24.759
like super nice. Yeah, So
like that makes all the difference in the

50
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:29.000
world, because that could make the
difference of whether your tour is fun or

51
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:33.120
sucks for you. I don't mean
the actual music, but just like a

52
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:38.879
drag but that portrays into the music
too. So if you're with cool people

53
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:42.600
on tour, I think your shows
are going to be way better because you're

54
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:46.959
like all chill and having fun and
just you know, yeah, having a

55
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:49.160
good time. Well, luckily for
us, we're surrounded by Scottish charm.

56
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:56.399
So there you go. Love it. So what's it what's it feel like

57
00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:01.639
playing here at Welcome to Rockville compare
to playing something in the UK or in

58
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:09.240
Europe in your opinion, Well,
the setting mainly, it's like curious,

59
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:13.600
like being in a movie. To
us is like you know, insaying,

60
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.199
seeing how big this place is,
and you know, it's just seeing the

61
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:23.199
seats, like how how high they
are, and you don't really get settings

62
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:25.920
like that in your in the UK
at least, right. I mean,

63
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:30.079
we've you know, we've not done
any like all the festivals around in Europe

64
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:33.199
or UK. But yeah, it's
just like it feels special because everything is

65
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:40.759
so impressive and the crowd like people
are like so nice, and you know,

66
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:45.439
I would say that like happy,
just you know, to be there

67
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.600
and listen. And I feel like
we've had a much better connection with the

68
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:53.519
crowds in the US overall. Wow, And it's always been you know,

69
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:59.959
really easy to like connect and yeah, just introduce ourselves because they don't know

70
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:02.560
who we are. Yeah. There, I love it. And you know

71
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:08.319
what my biggest shock was the first
time I did a UK festival was the

72
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:14.480
fact that people like they wouldn't even
forget going to a bathroom or whatever.

73
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.720
They would just sit there in the
middle of the crowd and go to the

74
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:19.079
bathroom when they had to go to
bathroom or go cup up up against the

75
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:25.360
wall, you know, like that
whole wall, like right by the stage.

76
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:31.439
Like I saw people lined up there
at Download like just peeing. Well.

77
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:39.079
Or the trough, the trough,
you know, you know what I'm

78
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:43.160
talking about where they have like the
long trough where everybody has to go to

79
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:50.720
the bathroom. We don't have that
here. Yeah, you see, I

80
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:59.279
know how to shock people right there. So here I got trivia question for

81
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:03.920
you see all the colored seats.
We were literally talking about it in the

82
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:08.000
vent. We were like, Okay, there must be a reason for this.

83
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:13.160
I was like, is it people
like from Afar. You know,

84
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:17.199
it looks like that's it. It
makes it look like it's full, like

85
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.959
on TV when you think it's full, you might be looking at that ye

86
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:30.199
everybody with a different shirt color.
Yeah, exactly. That's from the Fountain

87
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.319
Menace with the race, like the
oldest crowd. There was just a little

88
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:39.199
like you know thingy, how do
you say, cotton buds that were just

89
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:43.519
painted, painted and then just with
a fan on it, and it makes

90
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.920
it look like a massive crowd.
So same effect. That's so funny,

91
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:54.360
right. The tricks that you can
do, how do people connect to you

92
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:58.680
guys on socials on the web,
Get your music, buy your merch because

93
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.360
that's the most important. You guys
can and even make it the next gig

94
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.040
without merch, and people have to
buy merch. Support your artist. It's

95
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.000
a massive help. So you can

100
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.960

101
00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:39.080
your music or anything you got upcoming. Yeah, we will be releasing new

102
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:43.600
music very very soon. So yeah, we just released also three weeks ago

103
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.240
released on a new song with our
music video that is completely self made DIY

104
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.320
and it's a badass video too,
Thank you. I think those are the

105
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:58.159
best anyway. The di Y videos
are always the best because it puts your

106
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:03.600
creative videos you yours. I'm a
big believer that the people in the business

107
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.879
should be doing the business part and
the people who are the artists should be

108
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:15.000
in charge of all the creativity because
that's what you're doing. You're the creatives.

109
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:20.240
So I love that. Any final
words you want to leave our listeners

110
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:26.440
