Hey, you have done too and

crazy Young Roll, Why Become America. It's time for the Adventures of

00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:27.079
White Man on W four C why
dot Com. Wis Pompeas is number one

4
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:51.000
Internet radio station. Here's your host, the HiPE Man. What's well good

5
00:00:51.079 --> 00:01:07.439
said? This is a god?
This is the pipe Man here on the

6
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.439
Adventures pipe Man W four C Y
Radio. And I'm here with Bryan from

7
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.319
Currents. Nice. First, I
have a bone to pick with you.

8
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.159
What do we got You're sitting here
at my table wearing a Rangers set.

9
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.640
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm
kind of a fake fan. If it

10
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:26.040
makes you feel any better, Oh, that's the Rangers. I'm from Connecticut,

11
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.680
so you know, proximity fan.
I'm a Devils fan. So I

12
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.560
was a Rangers fan when I was
a kid, when there was no New

13
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.640
Jersey Devils. Okay, okay.
And you know when you go to a

14
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:44.040
Devil's game in the Meadowlands Arena,
Well, now in the Prudential Arena,

15
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:51.840
you're usually outnumbered as a Devil's fan
by Islanders fans, Rangers fans, and

16
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:56.359
Flyers fans. A lot of competition. That's Yeah, sure, but listen,

17
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:00.599
it's a great fun rivalry. You
know, you guys were in the

18
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:05.840
playoffs. We weren't, so I
don't like it right now. Yeah,

19
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.360
they're doing pretty well right now as
far as I can tell, unless I

20
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:13.879
miss something. But you know,
what I do like about the Devils is

21
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.159
that they will have bands, like
local bands come and play it in between

22
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.000
the games. So some of our
friends have ended up in there playing breakdowns

23
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.280
in front of everybody moshing. And
that's pretty cool. See, if you

24
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:29.039
weren't a Rangers fan when you when
you guys first started out, you could

25
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.120
have played at a Devil's game.
Yeah, now that I've now that I've

26
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:35.639
drawn a line, you know,
the future is a little limited. But

27
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:38.280
hey, I would do it.
I would do it. Would be pretty

28
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:42.280
cool. But we're not from New
Jersey, so maybe that's why. That

29
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:46.280
might be why. But hey,
y'a are here at the Daytona International Speedway.

30
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:52.000
How badass is that to play a
gig at the Daytona International Speedway.

31
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:57.840
It's pretty insane. When I rolled
out of bed to come here, it

32
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.680
was a while ago. I've been
hanging out in this area. Basically,

33
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:06.080
I hop in the golf cart and
we start going and we're riding the golf

34
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:10.120
cart on the speedway like on the
road where it's like this is crazy.

35
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:14.840
So that was a pretty cool moment
to just start the day off. And

36
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.159
yeah, it's been sweet so far. Haven't caught any bands yet, but

37
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.240
soon, soon enough. Who do
you want to catch? I want to

38
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:27.080
catch some Marine City Drive. I
am very sad that Gate Creeper and Harm's

39
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.240
Way or at the same time,
hopefully I can run between. And it's

40
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:35.919
a little bit of both. It's
gonna be cool seeing Non Point Living Color

41
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.599
playing today. Yeah, yeah,
I will be there, and then yeah,

42
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:42.520
it's it's gonna be a good day. Well, I got a play

43
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:46.800
story for yesterday for me, and
you made me think of it cause I

44
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:52.120
had so many choices I had to
make yesterday. Most of my early choices

45
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:54.400
I couldn't even go to because I
was stuck here, you know. But

46
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:59.879
there was at one point there were
three bands playing at the same time that

47
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.080
I wanted to see and I had
to make a choice, and that was

48
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:11.360
ICP, Biohazard, and Judas Priest
at the same time, at the exact

49
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.919
same time they were all playing.
Oh yeah, So and then when the

50
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.240
band's interviewed yesterday. They're like,
come help us do fago over at ICP.

51
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.120
So that's where I ended up.
Okay, and I've seen Priests like

52
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.839
a million times. I would see
him again, but you know, the

53
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.639
ICP experience, it's cool. And
then bio Hazard I was like, damn,

54
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:36.000
I really wanted to see them.
Yeah, like, if you had

55
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:40.920
your pick, that would have been
where you were. Well, I did

56
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.680
have my pick, and I picked
ICP. Yeah, I mean ICP,

57
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.600
that is that's a show. I
have not gotten to see them. I

58
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:50.000
have seen the aftermath of their shows, right, but I've always wondered about

59
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:55.360
the bands that have to play after
them on that stage, like how well

60
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:59.720
do they actually clean up the stage
with all of that? Because I got

61
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.560
the s has got to be a
closer, that's for sure, right,

62
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.879
it has to be. And then
but here's the funny story. Okay,

63
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:13.519
So after I'm leaving ICP, Carry
King was next and I'm a huge Slayer

64
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:19.439
fan, and so of course this
is carry King's first gig at all for

65
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:25.319
his solo project, in first in
five years. Wow, So I go.

66
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:29.360
It was with one of the other
Holly over there, one of the

67
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:34.079
other media people and we go and
fight through the crowd. But then I'm

68
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:40.079
like, this crowd seems too nice
to me. I'm thinking, like cause

69
00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:43.959
I'm going to where the pitt's gonna
be. And so I'm like trying to

70
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.519
get through the thick of it,
and people are moving out of my way

71
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:51.839
like they I'm not even trying,
and like there's something wrong with this.

72
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:56.439
And then we're waiting in the beginning
of this gig starts saying could have definitely

73
00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:00.160
been carry King because it was like
red and white and these lights, and

74
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:09.000
then David Draymond came out like fuck, we're at the wrong stage. Yeah,

75
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:14.120
and so then luckily there was a
little gap like that Kerry King played

76
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:17.040
like ten minutes later, like we're
right here and that crowd. Okay,

77
00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:20.959
where do you see tonight? Okay, As you know, I do all

78
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:25.279
the Danny Wimmer festivals. You've been
to a ton of festivals. I can

79
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:30.399
tell you already. This is the
highest populated festival yet that I've ever been

80
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:34.319
to. That's a Danny Wimmer festival. I'm very excited to see. And

81
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.399
what we got jelly roll today as
well. Yeah, so I'm imagining that

82
00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:42.879
that will be a scene for sure, and it's gonna be cool to just

83
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:45.120
be a fly on the wall,
you know, I know, right,

84
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:49.720
because to get out of that disturbed
crowd from up in the front, it

85
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:55.000
took me that whole ten minutes just
to get to where I could like get

86
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:59.560
out away from people like it.
Yeah, I turned to around like it's

87
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:03.759
like the runding crowd or did we
like make a circle or something? But

88
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:06.720
we ended up at Kerry King and
that was pretty badass. Yeah, I'm

89
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.360
glad. I'm glad it all worked
out. Story has a good ending.

90
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.480
So now what stage are you on
the today? So I make sure I

91
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:17.319
go to the right stage. Okay, we're on the garage stage. Oh

92
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.560
yeah, So it was a trip
on the cart to get over here.

93
00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:27.040
I'm curious to see how long it
will take on foot to get to where

94
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:30.959
I need to be. It'll be
a perilous journey. I'm pretty determined to

95
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:34.600
do it on foot. We'll see
how it goes. It's not that bad,

96
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:41.399
but it is a hike. It's
but I will tell you ICP played

97
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:44.879
at that stage, so it stay
might still be sticky up there, you

98
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:48.759
know. Yeah, but the crowd
at that stage, for ICP. I

99
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:53.560
couldn't believe it. It was insane. So I'm sure you guys will have

100
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:57.680
it and say like, there's just
there were crowds everywhere. Yeah, we

101
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:01.519
have a good set time too,
I mean like that five one right.

102
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:03.839
It is unfortunate where at the same
time as Kitty and I really wanted to

103
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:07.439
see them, I like them too. Say there again, I have to

104
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:13.240
make a choice, but yes,
I'll choose you unless I interview Kitty today

105
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.000
because I have to go to the
bands I interview always. I Hey,

106
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:20.720
I appreciate it, and I will
not be hurt one way or another if

107
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.120
you do get to see them.
I will live vicariously through you, right,

108
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.959
you know, and so that is
also a win. You gotta get

109
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:33.600
them on stage with you, like
get backstage and like make some deal.

110
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:35.519
Hey, don't play on your stage, come to our stage and we'll just

111
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:41.039
all you want to come play on
our stage. So tell us about your

112
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:46.759
new album. It just dropped,
right, So new album has been new

113
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:50.240
for a little bit. It is
one year old today. You know the

114
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.600
span of this amount of time,
it's like five minutes ago. I was

115
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:58.799
just take in May fifth this year, Like you're an idiot. I am

116
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.360
no, it's that's what it would
be. It would be very new then,

117
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:07.919
but it's still new. It's still
new and people, you know,

118
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:13.639
see other people might do what I
did right now and they think it's new,

119
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:16.360
So let's not let them think it
just dropped. The other Yeah,

120
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.279
our brand new album that just came
out, The Death We Seek, it's

121
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:24.879
out right now, just came out. But no, yeah, like that's

122
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.600
good. A lot of a lot
of this run of shows. So we're

123
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:31.320
on tour with The Amity Affliction right
now. They're doing Let the Ocean Take

124
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:35.360
Me. It's like a ten year
anniversary tour for that album, and we're

125
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.759
doing direct Sport and then Dying Wish
and Mugshot are also on the bill.

126
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:46.000
But this entire what six week tour
has been a lot of new crowds for

127
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:50.120
us, so that's been exciting.
And yeah, for a lot of these

128
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.200
people, it is like a brand
new thing. They've never heard of before.

129
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.200
Maybe they heard a song or two, they have it saved, they

130
00:09:56.200 --> 00:09:58.120
don't know and they see us,
I'm like, oh, I know this

131
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.559
song whatever. But you love that
though. When that happens, like you're

132
00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:05.360
a band and people know your song, but they didn't know it was your

133
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:09.440
song. Yes, And I've been
to that show, you know, like

134
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:11.600
I've I've had that happen. I've
gone and seen a band open for another

135
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:13.559
band. I'm like, oh,
I know the song, what right?

136
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.720
But so yeah, So the record
is new to a lot of people,

137
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:22.759
and it if it's new to people, that's good because there's a lot of

138
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:24.679
people out there. And that also
means there's a lot of people that haven't

139
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:28.320
heard us yet exactly. And you
know, time goes fast anyway, So

140
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:33.720
a year is pretty new, yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's pretty new.

141
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:37.240
It's it's but it's old enough when
people are asking, oh, new

142
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.200
album one right there, you go, well, we're working on it.

143
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.720
So what else are you working on
though that we want to tell people about.

144
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:48.639
Oh, that we're working on.
Just we just announce another tour.

145
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:54.360
We're going out with Bear Tooth in
July, playing a lot of places we've

146
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.240
never played, a lot of places
that are not being reached on this tour,

147
00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:03.600
so that's exciting. I had another
US thing that's short down at the

148
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:05.960
end of the year, but that's
not announced yet. We got some international

149
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.039
stuff, We've got the lame of
God cruise, that'd be pretty cool.

150
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:13.679
We'll be on the boat if you're
at the boat haven before. I've never

151
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.279
done a boat. I've never been
on a cruise. I've been on ferries

152
00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:20.399
before, I've been on a kayak, but I've never been on a cruise

153
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.039
ship. So what how are you
feeling about going and performing on a cruise?

154
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:30.440
Cautiously optimistic? You know, I'm
not known to be motion sick.

155
00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:33.879
I don't think there's any wood here
for me to knock on but the table.

156
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:37.080
Okay, there we go. Here, we go all right looking out.

157
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:43.919
But yeah, so I'm sure it
will be awesome and we're gonna be

158
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:48.399
in really good company like legendary bands
I listened to on my growing up metal

159
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:52.559
journey. So on Earth will be
there after the Burial who we toured with,

160
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.480
Lame of God of course, just
and then yeah, so many other

161
00:11:56.519 --> 00:11:58.559
amazing and then you're just hanging out
too. That's what's kind of cool about

162
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.919
it, compared to anything else you
do. Right, you go and it's

163
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:07.600
like you're working in a vacation at
the same time and hanging out with friends

164
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:09.440
more than just a few minutes because
you got to run and go to the

165
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:15.360
next gig. Yeah, I'm excited
for the dynamic the ship will have.

166
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:18.879
Just don't know how much we're gonna
meet other bands, but we're gonna have

167
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:22.480
some friends there for sure that'll be
on the cruise, some family, I

168
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.720
think, and then you know some
of the team, and you know,

169
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:28.879
hopefully we just get to chop it
up with some cool new people and make

170
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.600
some friends. Our Unity from Texas
they'll be on the boat too, and

171
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:35.919
we love them. We had them
on our headliner for a little bit,

172
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.799
so looking forward to hanging out with
them. It's gonna be great. And

173
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:43.120
so besides the cruise, you said
you're going some places you've never played.

174
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.039
Is there any place in particular that
you're really looking forward to that you've never

175
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:50.200
played? So we've never done Japan. I feel like that is the mecca

176
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:54.840
for every touring person they want to
go to Japan. That's the biggest bucket

177
00:12:54.879 --> 00:13:00.360
list cross off. We haven't done
it yet. We're hoping to go into

178
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:03.399
Ireland for the first time. We're
doing Dublin and Belfast in December. Nice

179
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:09.559
I am from obviously from Ireland,
so that would be cool. My grandmother

180
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:13.639
was born in Belfast, so it'll
be cool to see where it all be.

181
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:16.279
Can you know, right, that's
pretty cool. Do you ever play

182
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:20.840
a the festivals over that way in
the UK or in Europe? Not yet,

183
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.200
we have not had the opportunity yet. But we had our first headliner

184
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:30.279
this year as in January, did
pretty well and we're hoping that with the

185
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:33.720
you know, outcome of that tour, that maybe that turned some heads and

186
00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:37.840
maybe it makes people think, oh
yeah, maybe yeah, they can maybe

187
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:41.360
hold their own at one of these
festivals now. So that's what we're hoping

188
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:46.360
for. That's so maybe next year, but so far, no europe festivals

189
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.639
for us in twenty twenty four.
So up the DWP festivals you've played,

190
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.519
Which one have you had the most
fun at? Do you think I loved

191
00:13:54.559 --> 00:14:00.240
our experience at after Shots the greatest? Yeah? I loved I love our

192
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.600
after Shock experience. That was a
really good time. Yeah. I saw

193
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:07.279
a lot of friends that day.
That was like probably the biggest one that

194
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:13.080
we had done up to that point. But and it had been a little

195
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:18.840
while since we had done any festivals
because we did Incarceration and stuff like right

196
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.159
as COVID was ending on like twenty
twenty one, I want to say and

197
00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:26.080
that was awesome too. I loved
the like the prison and all that.

198
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:31.279
But yeah, after Shock was a
just a big like culture shock kind of

199
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:33.960
for us because we're like, wow, this is this is the real deal.

200
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:37.960
This is crazy and obviously today is
just what is going on. And

201
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:43.759
after Shock I loved a media artist
lounge area because it's so cool. They

202
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.759
have that open bar and that like
it's kind of an intimate That was the

203
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:52.240
dinner party area. Yeah, like
right, yeah, I honestly loved that

204
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.559
because yeah, and cool people were
hanging out there, you know, like

205
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.720
we just go and you grab a
drink. And the always the best part

206
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:03.759
of these festivals, it's just running
into people that you haven't seen in a

207
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:07.720
long time or people that you know, like we make a lot of friends

208
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:11.679
doing this over the years, exactly. It's cool to just kind of see

209
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:16.879
who you see and chat it out
and just enjoy a cool experience together.

210
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:22.000
Yeah, it's funny you mentioned ink
and that's coming up in July. And

211
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.639
my daughter, or she always asked
me before a festival, is like,

212
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:26.840
so, Dad, are you excited
for his festival? I'm like, I

213
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.080
don't know if excites a word.
I love doing it. It's a lot

214
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:33.639
of fun, but you know,
when you're doing them like every weekend,

215
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:37.600
I don't know if i'd use excited
as a word, but then I called

216
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.000
her the first year I ever did
inc. I called her from the prison

217
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.480
yard of Shawshank. I'm like,
now I'm excited. I'm in the prison

218
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.519
yard of Showshank. Yeah, it's
a really cool backdrop for the Rhole thing.

219
00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.720
And when the year that we played, we played on the day that

220
00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:00.399
Slipknot played, so we got to
have that whole day and obviously things are

221
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:04.000
a little different than it was,
like people were still very cautious with like

222
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:10.200
masks and distancing, like you know, you weren't really bumping elbows with people

223
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:15.120
around that time, I'll basically.
But it was still a really cool experience

224
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.039
that day, Like it was an
awesome festival and we got to watch the

225
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:22.559
Not and hey, are you gonna
stick around till Sunday or you got another

226
00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:26.440
gig? So we got a day
off tomorrow. I think we're heading to

227
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:30.960
Myrtle Beach because that's where we're playing
next. We were in Pensacola Beach yesterday,

228
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:36.720
so we'll get round two of some
waves, some sun, some salt

229
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:41.039
water nice, does the body good. I just got back from three months

230
00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:45.480
in Costa Rica. That sounds pretty
sweet. Yet the off season where there's

231
00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:52.320
no festivals, off the grid,
away from surfing every day, sun rot

232
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.080
and sunset every day, and then
you know, like my brother was like,

233
00:16:56.440 --> 00:16:57.480
did you see the news? I'm
like, no, I don't give

234
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.480
a fuck. I don't want,
no, I don't care. You know,

235
00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:06.200
I'm off the grid. I don't
care if you guys are like beating

236
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:08.319
the shit out of each other up
there, I'm cool down here. Yeah.

237
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.519
That's how Yeah, staying off the
grid on the beach, that's how

238
00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:15.960
you stay young forever. I feel
like, no doubt it. It was

239
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.480
so funny while I was there.
There were three festivals too, and Costa

240
00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:23.799
Rica doesn't normally have festival and they
weren't my type. But I was just

241
00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:26.480
like, man, I can't get
away from these festivals no matter where I

242
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:30.720
go in the world. But that's
the coolest thing, because during this month,

243
00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:36.720
mental Health Awareness Month, I've been
saying all along, music's the best

244
00:17:36.799 --> 00:17:40.599
therapy. Oh yeah, oh yeah. You gotta stay close to the things

245
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:42.680
you love, even if it's a
little different than what you're used to.

246
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:48.079
It's it. It's the best therapy. We we're all together, we're one

247
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:53.160
big family and we can get all
that shit out out there and just escape

248
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:59.480
here at Welcome to Rockville at your
set. Oh yeah, that's right.

249
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:02.960
Everybody just has to go or else
they can't. They can't go to the

250
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:07.920
rest of the festival unless a good
years. Yeah, it's actually a requirement.

251
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:12.799
You cannot go through the rest of
the festival until our set is over

252
00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:15.880
and you have watched it and you
can prove that you watch the whole thing.

253
00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:19.759
You have to put your Google glasses, you have to record yourself watch

254
00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:22.400
the whole thing, and then they'll
let you and the rest of the festival.

255
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:25.480
So there it is. I love
it. What a great idea.

256
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:29.160
Yeah, so for us, there
you go. Anything else you want to

257
00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:32.880
share with the listeners we haven't covered
yet that they need to know, We're

258
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:37.559

just currents. Don't have to have any

259
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:42.000

262
00:18:52.960 --> 00:19:00.160
