Pyt Man W forc Y Radio at Rifest
8
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.840
and I'm here with Rory and Rob
froment to Shikari. Yes, what's up?
9
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.280
Have you ever played Riot first before? I don't think so. I
10
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.560
think this is our first time here, but hopefully not the last, because
11
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.640
so far what we've seen of it
is it's fucking awesome. It's a pretty
12
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:21.079
coolat it's pretty cool festival right like
they do it right here, you know,
13
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.120
it's like they have it all pre
organized and set up. But that's
14
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.040
not always the case in America.
Like no, when I did recently,
15
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.799
Yeah, yeah, yeah, We've
had a lot of experience with American festivals,
16
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.359
and so far this is my favorite. Yeah. I think from coming
17
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:42.120
to America for the last twenty years, this one's been my favorite festival.
18
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:47.040
I mean we haven't even played yet, that has only just begun. That
19
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:49.640
tells you something right there, because
like I also do the UK and the
20
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.319
European festivals, and I go over
there, I'm like, wow, this
21
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.959
is different and that's a good way, you know what I mean. But
22
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.280
they do it right. We're so
happy to have you here. So tell
23
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:07.079
us a little bit about your music. For the people that don't know you
24
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.159
guys, how you describe it as
artists, you know, opposed to some
25
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.879
genre bullshit label that you get boxed
into. Well, we've always sort of
26
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:20.560
been known as the band that doesn't
really have a genre. I love that.
27
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.800
So yeah, we literally our musical
spectrum spans from like, you know,
28
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:35.520
you know, heavy electronic stuff to
like orchestral like classical pieces to like
29
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.599
you a, heavy guitars to everything, so whatever the place. Like to
30
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:44.680
an older generation, I'd say if
my grandmother asked me what my music sounded
31
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.400
like, I would the easiest way
to describe it. I know what Rory
32
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:53.080
said is heavy guitar music with a
lot of electronic influence. Yeah, that's
33
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.879
pretty cool, But I like that
you can't be boxed in. You know,
34
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:01.120
you're just being artist creating. You
know, that's the way it's in
35
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:05.719
the box. Who jump out of
the box. That's right exactly. And
36
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:16.680
so what's the craziest story ever in
your whole musical journey? That's like such
37
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:23.039
a hard question or like to ever
be I'll say, what's your favorite song
38
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:29.919
ever? Well, that that's definitely
a hard one. We once had someone
39
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:35.080
lose a finger at a show.
There was really playing a gig where the
40
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.400
speaker system had like a grill in
the front of it, and someone was
41
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.840
climbing up the front of it,
and they said, have launched themselves off,
42
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:45.439
but left one of their fingers in
the grill. That's always one I'll
43
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.560
remember, Yeah, I bet you
will. Like I knocked out my teeth
44
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.400
from climbing up a Marshall stack and
doing a stage dive, but I still
45
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.599
have my finger. Yeah, I
want to got a mic stand knocked into
46
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.560
my teeth. Oh well, when
it actually knocked out a tooth that was
47
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:06.240
already fake, it was kind of
like, you know, it didn't do
48
00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:10.680
any more damage. I just had
to get the damage it has already happened
49
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:14.319
fixed again. It's kind of like
that tooth, like just it's not good
50
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.879
luck for you. It happened.
So and then what happens after riot?
51
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:26.480
First, well, we got a
few more shows. We're playing Furnace Festival
52
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.800
and than Life. I'll see you
there, So we're going to be there
53
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:35.839
exiting there, and then we got
a string of headline shows in between,
54
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:43.879
and then we go to Mexico.
We're doing Mexico City and Guadalajara. Oh
55
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:50.319
happy, yeah, he says September
to anyone of Mexican descent, Yeah,
56
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:55.519
listening out here at the minute.
Were you did you arrive today, like
57
00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:00.759
to the grounds? Yes? Kay? Did you encounter was out there?
58
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.920
I only saw a very small bit
of it, one van driving past with
59
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.319
big flags hanging out the window.
But I hear that last night got pretty
60
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:12.839
wild and it gets pretty crazy,
and they had a parade today. So
61
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:18.079
you're lacking here early enough. I
actually it took an hour longer for me
62
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:25.000
to get here because all the roads
were closed, so the GPS kept saying,
63
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.560
go this way, nope, can't
go that way, nope. We
64
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:30.480
had to like go around the whole
city to come back. Because it is
65
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:33.639
last year I experienced it too right. I appreciated seen it. That would
66
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:38.240
have been. Was it a proper
parade? Like yeah, yeah, well
67
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:44.279
it's not like you would have like
a parade on New Year's It's more like
68
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:48.399
everybody's out there with their own vehicles. There's floats too, and they have
69
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:53.600
the Mexican flags on it, and
they're honking the horns and they got the
70
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:59.079
low riders. They're going up and
down and it's pretty it's pretty wild.
71
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:03.199
Like last year, I made the
mistake of driving some other media people to
72
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:10.759
their hotel and it was right where
the parade was, like we couldn't get
73
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:15.079
through. We were just it's like
the whole place is overtaking. You needed
74
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.040
a low rider with a big suspension
onto so they thought you were part of
75
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:24.560
the right exact Yeah, through it
exactly. So yeah, that's something the
76
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:30.720
fun that we have here, you
know. And so people through all all
77
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:34.439
the years of asked you all questions
that you probably answered a million times.
78
00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:40.759
Is there a question that nobody's ever
asked you that you wish they did ask
79
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:46.000
you. That's a tough one,
too, right. How are you feeling
80
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.160
today, Rory? Like, seriously, how are you actually feeling? You
81
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:54.160
know, you know what. That
is great because like what my friends,
82
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.600
He's like, you know, all
the year's touring. He's like, I
83
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.120
wish they would just ask me what
skin conditioner I use on tour, you
84
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:04.639
know. And but that's right because
it's like everybody's like, oh, hey
85
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:09.199
and by by, but nobody just
said hey, Rory, how you doing?
86
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:16.120
So I'll ask how are you?
Now? I know it doesn't work.
87
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:23.920
It doesn't work that way for sure. And so I have all the
88
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:30.360
festivals you've ever done. Okay,
what do you find the comparisons between different
89
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:35.040
festivals of not necessarily ain't good bad? Or just like, what do you
90
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:40.360
find that certain things stick out in
certain places and different parts of the world.
91
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:47.720
Maybe the catering area. That is
quite often where one festival fest festival
92
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.639
will either suffer or really stick out
as a good festival for me is how
93
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:57.160
good their casing is. And today
tea thumbs up. It's really really good.
94
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.279
That's good to hear because that's not
always the gays. I've been in
95
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:03.680
some of the caterie Sometimes I'm like, really, this is what they're given
96
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.279
the artists. Yeah, you know, but I think that louder you'll be
97
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.399
happy too, because Danny Wimmer always
takes care of all the artists and everything,
98
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.240
so hopefully it let's hope. So
let's hope I didn't say that and
99
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.279
I'm wrong, and you're like,
when your head be it, I'm gonna
100
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.680
come find you if he see,
Like, what were you talking about?
101
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:28.360
It's a bunch of shit, man, So tell everybody how they can connect
102
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.639
to you guys on socials, on
the web, and most importantly by your
103
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.399
merch. Yeah yeah, well I
suppose if you wanted to see sitt of
104
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.279
where we're playing and see what mage
you, go out our website. It's
105
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.080

went to sicary dot com. And then
106
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:46.919
we're on all the the tiktoks and
your Instagrams and your twitters. Although now
107
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:50.600
that's called X, isn't it?
Does anyone actually call it X? Or
108
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:52.200
do you is? Everyone's talking?
I think that's the stupid as shit,
109
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.240
Like now what you guys say for
tweet? Though? Okay, like it
110
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:01.080

X. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna
111
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.720
X you out of my life.
Because he already said he's gonna take out
112
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:11.120
he wants to take out the option
to block people, Like why do I
113
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.120
have to be forced to listen to
somebody I don't want to listen to.
114
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.080
Yeah, you know, like if
I want to block him, I won't
115
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.759
be able to block him. Yeah. I'm with you on that one,
116
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.559
especially nowadays, right, you know, like because everybody's got their opinion about
117
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.240
everything, I just want to block
the whole world. Yeah, he could
118
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.240
just turn it off. That's that's
true. That's delete the app. Sometimes
119
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:35.360
it's good, like I'll get Costa
Rica or something. I'll just turn my
120
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.399
phone off and disconnect the I'm like, oh my god, that feels sucked.
121
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:41.279
That. The other day, say, my wife and I went from
122
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:46.639
a little surfing chipped down and there's
a county called Devon in England's is really
123
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.639
gorgeous part of the world, and
just turn turned all my notifications off for
124
00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:54.159
two days and it was bliss.
I just didn't look at my phone once.
125
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.120
And then of course when I go
back to real life and turned it
126
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.279
on and ding ding ding ding ding
ding ding. My phone's going mental because
127
00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.000
it is that why when we were
trying to organize this tour, you just
128
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:11.559
weren't communicating exactly. Yes, and
it was great. I loved it.
129
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:13.720
It makes sense. Oh that is
good. Well, that's why I love
130
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.919
about surfing too. Like I can't
bring my phone out there, so I
131
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.639
just sit out in the water all
day. It's like, sorry, I
132
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:26.240
couldn't. I couldn't have a connection, bliss. Is there a favorite surf
133
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:30.440
spot in the world for you?
Well, I gotta say I'm quite new
134
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.240
to the sport. I've only done
it a few times. The first time
135
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:39.159
it literally just picked up the board
this summer. So the first time we
136
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:45.360
went, we were in Northern Ireland, which is a surprisingly good spot to
137
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.600
surfing, and it's absolutely spectacular as
well. We've got cute, gorgeous cliffs
138
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:54.320
and beautiful stort, tons of dolphins
swimming out and stuff. And then that
139
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.440
last time I was in North Devon
that was very nice. But now I've
140
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:05.639
caught the buck. I'm gonna have
to see every place that Costa Rica is
141
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.519
on top of my list of places
to go. I think I'm gonna go
142
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.559
there. You know where in Costa
Rica, because I've been all over I
143
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:15.879
go there all the time. I've
never been said, let me not tell
144
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.600
me go to the Sara. It's
called no Sara, like it's dirt roads.
145
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.960
It's a little surf down that is
known for the surf, specially if
146
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:30.440
you're new to it. Like the
surf is perfect for new surfers because you
147
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:33.159
can ride like ten waves in a
row, like it's so cool, and
148
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.159
and then out too. I know. Some surfers can be like quite territorial,
149
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.480
not not there, that's the point, Like there are other places in
150
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.159
Coasta where they are, because listen, hanging around surfers all my life,
151
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.399
most of them are dicks. Okay, by what you said, they are
152
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.879
very territorial. They'll like try to
take you out if you like get their
153
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.039
wave or something. Yea. Costa
Rica is not like that. That's why
154
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:01.840
I love it. And it's all
sand be like I hate the reef and
155
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.240
rock. Like I live in Florida. My backyard is reef and I'm more
156
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.679
worried about the reef than the waves
are the sharks, because you wipe out
157
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:15.080
on that reef, it's gonna hurt. Yeah, it's gonna leave a mark
158
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:18.440
for sure. Listen, what's that
price? No, Sara, No,
159
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:22.639
Sara, Yeah, okay, it's
on the Pacific coast side. Look it
160
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:28.200
up. It's a yoga and surfing
mecca of like the world. That sounds
161
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:33.799
like yeah, and you talk about
disconnecting. Man, two hours before sunset,
162
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:37.799
everybody goes to a beach just to
wait for the sunset, like it's
163
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.159
a religious experience because it is the
most badass sunset anywhere in the world.
164
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:46.440
Amazing, amazing, Right, So
they're written down, it's there you go.
165
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:48.600

Pyt Man W forc Y Radio at Rifest
8
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.840
and I'm here with Rory and Rob
froment to Shikari. Yes, what's up?
9
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.280
Have you ever played Riot first before? I don't think so. I
10
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.560
think this is our first time here, but hopefully not the last, because
11
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.640
so far what we've seen of it
is it's fucking awesome. It's a pretty
12
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:21.079
coolat it's pretty cool festival right like
they do it right here, you know,
13
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.120
it's like they have it all pre
organized and set up. But that's
14
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.040
not always the case in America.
Like no, when I did recently,
15
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.799
Yeah, yeah, yeah, We've
had a lot of experience with American festivals,
16
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.359
and so far this is my favorite. Yeah. I think from coming
17
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:42.120
to America for the last twenty years, this one's been my favorite festival.
18
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:47.040
I mean we haven't even played yet, that has only just begun. That
19
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:49.640
tells you something right there, because
like I also do the UK and the
20
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.319
European festivals, and I go over
there, I'm like, wow, this
21
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.959
is different and that's a good way, you know what I mean. But
22
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.280
they do it right. We're so
happy to have you here. So tell
23
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:07.079
us a little bit about your music. For the people that don't know you
24
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.159
guys, how you describe it as
artists, you know, opposed to some
25
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.879
genre bullshit label that you get boxed
into. Well, we've always sort of
26
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:20.560
been known as the band that doesn't
really have a genre. I love that.
27
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.800
So yeah, we literally our musical
spectrum spans from like, you know,
28
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:35.520
you know, heavy electronic stuff to
like orchestral like classical pieces to like
29
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.599
you a, heavy guitars to everything, so whatever the place. Like to
30
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:44.680
an older generation, I'd say if
my grandmother asked me what my music sounded
31
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.400
like, I would the easiest way
to describe it. I know what Rory
32
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:53.080
said is heavy guitar music with a
lot of electronic influence. Yeah, that's
33
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.879
pretty cool, But I like that
you can't be boxed in. You know,
34
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:01.120
you're just being artist creating. You
know, that's the way it's in
35
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:05.719
the box. Who jump out of
the box. That's right exactly. And
36
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:16.680
so what's the craziest story ever in
your whole musical journey? That's like such
37
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:23.039
a hard question or like to ever
be I'll say, what's your favorite song
38
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:29.919
ever? Well, that that's definitely
a hard one. We once had someone
39
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:35.080
lose a finger at a show.
There was really playing a gig where the
40
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.400
speaker system had like a grill in
the front of it, and someone was
41
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.840
climbing up the front of it,
and they said, have launched themselves off,
42
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:45.439
but left one of their fingers in
the grill. That's always one I'll
43
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.560
remember, Yeah, I bet you
will. Like I knocked out my teeth
44
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.400
from climbing up a Marshall stack and
doing a stage dive, but I still
45
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.599
have my finger. Yeah, I
want to got a mic stand knocked into
46
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.560
my teeth. Oh well, when
it actually knocked out a tooth that was
47
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:06.240
already fake, it was kind of
like, you know, it didn't do
48
00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:10.680
any more damage. I just had
to get the damage it has already happened
49
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:14.319
fixed again. It's kind of like
that tooth, like just it's not good
50
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.879
luck for you. It happened.
So and then what happens after riot?
51
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:26.480
First, well, we got a
few more shows. We're playing Furnace Festival
52
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.800
and than Life. I'll see you
there, So we're going to be there
53
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:35.839
exiting there, and then we got
a string of headline shows in between,
54
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:43.879
and then we go to Mexico.
We're doing Mexico City and Guadalajara. Oh
55
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:50.319
happy, yeah, he says September
to anyone of Mexican descent, Yeah,
56
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:55.519
listening out here at the minute.
Were you did you arrive today, like
57
00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:00.759
to the grounds? Yes? Kay? Did you encounter was out there?
58
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.920
I only saw a very small bit
of it, one van driving past with
59
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.319
big flags hanging out the window.
But I hear that last night got pretty
60
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:12.839
wild and it gets pretty crazy,
and they had a parade today. So
61
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:18.079
you're lacking here early enough. I
actually it took an hour longer for me
62
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:25.000
to get here because all the roads
were closed, so the GPS kept saying,
63
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.560
go this way, nope, can't
go that way, nope. We
64
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:30.480
had to like go around the whole
city to come back. Because it is
65
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:33.639
last year I experienced it too right. I appreciated seen it. That would
66
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:38.240
have been. Was it a proper
parade? Like yeah, yeah, well
67
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:44.279
it's not like you would have like
a parade on New Year's It's more like
68
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:48.399
everybody's out there with their own vehicles. There's floats too, and they have
69
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:53.600
the Mexican flags on it, and
they're honking the horns and they got the
70
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:59.079
low riders. They're going up and
down and it's pretty it's pretty wild.
71
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:03.199
Like last year, I made the
mistake of driving some other media people to
72
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:10.759
their hotel and it was right where
the parade was, like we couldn't get
73
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:15.079
through. We were just it's like
the whole place is overtaking. You needed
74
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.040
a low rider with a big suspension
onto so they thought you were part of
75
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:24.560
the right exact Yeah, through it
exactly. So yeah, that's something the
76
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:30.720
fun that we have here, you
know. And so people through all all
77
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:34.439
the years of asked you all questions
that you probably answered a million times.
78
00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:40.759
Is there a question that nobody's ever
asked you that you wish they did ask
79
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:46.000
you. That's a tough one,
too, right. How are you feeling
80
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.160
today, Rory? Like, seriously, how are you actually feeling? You
81
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:54.160
know, you know what. That
is great because like what my friends,
82
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.600
He's like, you know, all
the year's touring. He's like, I
83
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.120
wish they would just ask me what
skin conditioner I use on tour, you
84
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:04.639
know. And but that's right because
it's like everybody's like, oh, hey
85
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:09.199
and by by, but nobody just
said hey, Rory, how you doing?
86
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:16.120
So I'll ask how are you?
Now? I know it doesn't work.
87
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:23.920
It doesn't work that way for sure. And so I have all the
88
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:30.360
festivals you've ever done. Okay,
what do you find the comparisons between different
89
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:35.040
festivals of not necessarily ain't good bad? Or just like, what do you
90
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:40.360
find that certain things stick out in
certain places and different parts of the world.
91
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:47.720
Maybe the catering area. That is
quite often where one festival fest festival
92
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.639
will either suffer or really stick out
as a good festival for me is how
93
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:57.160
good their casing is. And today
tea thumbs up. It's really really good.
94
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.279
That's good to hear because that's not
always the gays. I've been in
95
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:03.680
some of the caterie Sometimes I'm like, really, this is what they're given
96
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.279
the artists. Yeah, you know, but I think that louder you'll be
97
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.399
happy too, because Danny Wimmer always
takes care of all the artists and everything,
98
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.240
so hopefully it let's hope. So
let's hope I didn't say that and
99
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.279
I'm wrong, and you're like,

00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.680
come find you if he see,
Like, what were you talking about?
101
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:28.360

102
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.639

00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.399
merch. Yeah yeah, well I
suppose if you wanted to see sitt of
104
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.279
where we're playing and see what mage
you, go out our website. It's
105
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.080
the best one for it. So
went to sicary dot com. And then
106
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:46.919
we're on all the the tiktoks and
your Instagrams and your twitters. Although now
107
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:50.600
that's called X, isn't it?
Does anyone actually call it X? Or
108
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:52.200
do you is? Everyone's talking?
I think that's the stupid as shit,
109
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.240
Like now what you guys say for
tweet? Though? Okay, like it
110
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:01.080
made I'm gonna I'm gonna post an
X. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna
111
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.720
X you out of my life.
Because he already said he's gonna take out
112
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:11.120
he wants to take out the option
to block people, Like why do I
113
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.120
have to be forced to listen to
somebody I don't want to listen to.
114
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.080
Yeah, you know, like if
I want to block him, I won't
115
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.759
be able to block him. Yeah. I'm with you on that one,
116
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.559
especially nowadays, right, you know, like because everybody's got their opinion about
117
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.240
everything, I just want to block
the whole world. Yeah, he could
118
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.240
just turn it off. That's that's
true. That's delete the app. Sometimes
119
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:35.360
it's good, like I'll get Costa
Rica or something. I'll just turn my
120
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.399
phone off and disconnect the I'm like, oh my god, that feels sucked.
121
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:41.279
That. The other day, say, my wife and I went from
122
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:46.639
a little surfing chipped down and there's
a county called Devon in England's is really
123
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.639
gorgeous part of the world, and
just turn turned all my notifications off for
124
00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:54.159
two days and it was bliss.
I just didn't look at my phone once.
125
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.120
And then of course when I go
back to real life and turned it
126
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.279
on and ding ding ding ding ding
ding ding. My phone's going mental because
127
00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.000
it is that why when we were
trying to organize this tour, you just
128
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:11.559
weren't communicating exactly. Yes, and
it was great. I loved it.
129
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:13.720
It makes sense. Oh that is
good. Well, that's why I love
130
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.919
about surfing too. Like I can't
bring my phone out there, so I
131
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.639
just sit out in the water all
day. It's like, sorry, I
132
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:26.240
couldn't. I couldn't have a connection, bliss. Is there a favorite surf
133
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:30.440
spot in the world for you?
Well, I gotta say I'm quite new
134
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.240
to the sport. I've only done
it a few times. The first time
135
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:39.159
it literally just picked up the board
this summer. So the first time we
136
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:45.360
went, we were in Northern Ireland, which is a surprisingly good spot to
137
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.600
surfing, and it's absolutely spectacular as
well. We've got cute, gorgeous cliffs
138
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:54.320
and beautiful stort, tons of dolphins
swimming out and stuff. And then that
139
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.440
last time I was in North Devon
that was very nice. But now I've
140
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:05.639
caught the buck. I'm gonna have
to see every place that Costa Rica is
141
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.519
on top of my list of places
to go. I think I'm gonna go
142
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.559
there. You know where in Costa
Rica, because I've been all over I
143
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:15.879
go there all the time. I've
never been said, let me not tell
144
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.600
me go to the Sara. It's
called no Sara, like it's dirt roads.
145
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.960
It's a little surf down that is
known for the surf, specially if
146
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:30.440
you're new to it. Like the
surf is perfect for new surfers because you
147
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:33.159
can ride like ten waves in a
row, like it's so cool, and
148
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.159
and then out too. I know. Some surfers can be like quite territorial,
149
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.480
not not there, that's the point, Like there are other places in
150
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.159
Coasta where they are, because listen, hanging around surfers all my life,
151
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.399
most of them are dicks. Okay, by what you said, they are
152
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.879
very territorial. They'll like try to
take you out if you like get their
153
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.039
wave or something. Yea. Costa
Rica is not like that. That's why
154
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:01.840
I love it. And it's all
sand be like I hate the reef and
155
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.240
rock. Like I live in Florida. My backyard is reef and I'm more
156
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.679
worried about the reef than the waves
are the sharks, because you wipe out
157
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:15.080
on that reef, it's gonna hurt. Yeah, it's gonna leave a mark
158
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:18.440
for sure. Listen, what's that
price? No, Sara, No,
159
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:22.639
Sara, Yeah, okay, it's
on the Pacific coast side. Look it
160
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:28.200
up. It's a yoga and surfing
mecca of like the world. That sounds
161
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:33.799
like yeah, and you talk about
disconnecting. Man, two hours before sunset,
162
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:37.799
everybody goes to a beach just to
wait for the sunset, like it's
163
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.159
a religious experience because it is the
most badass sunset anywhere in the world.
164
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:46.440
Amazing, amazing, Right, So
they're written down, it's there you go.
