Aftershock 2025 Draws Record-Breaking Crowd Of Over 164,000 Fans, The Largest In The Festival’s History

The West Coast’s Ultimate Rock, Punk & Metal Destination 115+ Bands • 4 Unforgettable Days • Fans From Every Corner of the Globe

Danny Wimmer Presents’ record-breaking 2025 festival season concluded October 2–5 with the largest Aftershock in history — drawing over 164,000 fans from all 50 states and more than 30 countries to Sacramento’s Discovery Park, generating an estimated $35 million in local economic impact.

The West Coast’s biggest rock, punk, and metal festival reached new heights in 2025.

Debuting in 2025, Aftershock introduced several new fan-favorite experiences that elevated the festival weekend to new heights. The Capitol Club offered an all-inclusive oasis with premium amenities and elevated views of the main stage, while Tremors Dive Bar kept the energy high with a pop-up set by DJ Rock Feed with surprise guests My Darkest Days, and a special Sunday takeover by Sacramento’s own The Jungle Bird. Fans also discovered spontaneous performances at Beatbox and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it speakeasy hidden beneath the underpass — each adding to the sense of discovery and excitement that defined this year’s festival.

To celebrate DWP’s cultural and economic impact to the region, Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty, Senator Angelique Ashby, and Assemblymember Maggy Krell honored Danny Wimmer Presents with official recognitions from the City of Sacramento, the California State Senate, and the California State Assembly. The proclamation and resolutions celebrate Aftershock’s decade-long legacy, recognizing its profound cultural, economic, and charitable contributions to the Sacramento community and beyond, and highlighting how the festival has firmly established the city as a premier destination for live music in California.

The 2026 dates for Aftershock will be announced in the coming months along with early bird tickets, allowing fans to lock-in lower level pricing and maximum payment plan options. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned to the festival’s official social media channels and AftershockFestival.com.

In addition to music performances, this year’s edition of Aftershock featured various partner onsite activations, award-winning beverages and delectable eats from partners including Animal Place, Astral Tequila, Beatbox Beverages, Black Shades, Blackcraft, Body Art Express, California Army National Guard, Coors Light, Don Julio, Eargasm, Freak On a Leash, Fxck Cancer, Golden State Cider, Hyatt Vacation Club, Jack Daniel's, Jeffree Star Cosmetics, Little Rocker Clothing, Mortus Viventi, Nowhere Fast, Parlor Root Beer, Red Bull, Sierra Nevada, Strüng, Take Me Home, The Pretty Cult, Tito's Handmade Vodka, To Write Love on Her Arms, Topo Chico Hard Seltzer, and Waterloo Sparkling Water.

Aftershock is proud to partner with Visit Sacramento and is produced by Los Angeles-based Danny Wimmer Presents, one of the largest independent producers of destination music festivals in America.

See why crazy young.

4
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:23.120
This is pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe manw

5
00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:26.039
four c Y Radio at Aftershock and I'm here with.

6
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:27.519
Jay Dog and Danny.

7
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:30.239
What up? This is Danny from Hollywood Undead.

8
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:34.159
Yes, and this is the end of your Danny Wimmer

9
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:38.560
festival tour for twenty twenty five. Because you've done Sonic

10
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:40.880
Louder and now after Shock.

11
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:43.359
Yeah, it's awesome. Danny Wimer. We're talking abou him last night.

12
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:45.399
We've known him for a very long time. He really

13
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:47.679
like figured these festivals out, man. I remember, like the

14
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:50.520
catering was like hot dogs and hamburgers. The porta potties

15
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.039
were overflowing, and festivals used to not be cool and

16
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:55.960
fun and they were just like disgusting. Somehow he like

17
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:57.600
stepped in and changed all of it. There was like

18
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.880
we're always like europe festivals are better. Any I don't

19
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:02.840
know if he studied European festivals. He probably did, but

20
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:05.519
came back and figured it out and brought it to America.

21
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:08.359
I have an answer to that because I cover Hellfest.

22
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:09.120
Yeah.

23
00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:10.920
He came to hell Fest one year.

24
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:15.799
Yeah, just as it like to observe to observe spectator

25
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:20.159
and yes to bring that. That's what's cool about Wimer

26
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:24.000
is that he realizes that people say things like, oh,

27
00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:26.439
the European festivals are better, so he goes over there

28
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:27.480
and finds out what.

29
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:29.920
Makes them better? Yeah, totally from their perspective.

30
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.760
Yeah, Like how many promoters, you guys do a lot

31
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:36.400
of festivals. How many promoters actually will want to see

32
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.200
what the fans perspective is?

33
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:39.760
Sure? Not many? I don't.

34
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:42.200
I couldn't see a lot of wealthy guys wanting to

35
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:42.959
do that, right.

36
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:43.560
Yeah.

37
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:46.120
I'm not going to name names, but there's been festivals

38
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:48.200
where like I was like, man, this dude like looks

39
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.159
like he lives in a castle on a hill somewhere

40
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:52.000
and we're just peasants, you know, Like he couldn't be

41
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.079
bothered by the bands that are there. Wimer's like, very cool.

42
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:57.200
It remembers everybody like he's doing it right.

43
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.599
Yeah, in like sixteen years of doing his festival, the holes,

44
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:03.760
I've never heard of artists say one bad thing about

45
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:05.359
him or his festivals.

46
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:06.920
Yeah, because he's doing it right for sure.

47
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.439
And how does he treat you as artists? Forget everything else?

48
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:13.680
That makes it great? How about you the artists.

49
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.919
He treats you just like he would probably like one

50
00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:19.080
of his family. He comes up, he's like, hey, I'm

51
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.120
over here, come visit me in the office at this time.

52
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:22.840
I'll be free from then and then I want to

53
00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:23.319
catch up.

54
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:23.520
You know.

55
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.879
He's always just very like like when you talk to him,

56
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:30.639
his attention is on you, right, And that's a cool

57
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:32.319
feeling when you're talking to somebody.

58
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:36.080
That is yea and band guys are simple, dude. You

59
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:40.159
put like good coffee backstage, open bar, like decent food, pepper,

60
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:43.240
some influencer girls back there, and like every band's happy,

61
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:45.120
you know what I mean, Like it's easy.

62
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:46.080
There, it is there, it is.

63
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:50.360
I heard you guys talking over in another interview about

64
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:52.400
Insane Clown Posse.

65
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:56.159
Oh dude, their show is like wild and louder than life.

66
00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:58.039
We went and watch them and like kind of like

67
00:02:58.240 --> 00:02:59.919
watch them get ready on the stage, and I was

68
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:01.599
blown away. I've never seen them live and I was like,

69
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:03.520
this is one of the coolest shows I've ever seen.

70
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:06.680
Yeah, I wasn't expecting all of that. It was like

71
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.000
it was such a spectacle. It was really cool the

72
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:11.240
way that they were like they had this technique where

73
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:14.039
they would shake the two leaders of the Fuego yep,

74
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.080
is that what it is? Yeah, Pola, and then they

75
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:18.319
just like shoot it like rockets into the crowd and

76
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:19.000
it was just like.

77
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:21.120
And it's like a badge of honor if you get

78
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.240
hit with that kind of like getting hit.

79
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:26.000
By guards whatever their blood.

80
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:27.360
It's really cool.

81
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:30.080
We were talking to their DJ before they went on

82
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:32.800
stage and he was just like, yeah, it's crazy, like

83
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:35.120
we're cool, Like it's look at this, you know, and

84
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:37.919
there's I think they probably had the biggest audience of

85
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:38.319
the day.

86
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.520
It was wild and like we watched so many bands,

87
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:43.639
I'm like, oh, that's cool, but watching them, I was

88
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:45.599
actually getting hyped up to play the show. I was like,

89
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:47.599
I want to go on stage after watching this, and like,

90
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:49.759
I don't remember the last time I felt like that.

91
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:51.000
I see me.

92
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:53.879
I Actually, that's one of the things I love about

93
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:56.039
your Guys Live show, because I've seen you a lot

94
00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:00.319
of times at the festivals, and I think you that

95
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:02.879
same excitement that they do.

96
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:04.759
I think very similar.

97
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:06.800
I feel that everyone's like, man, I didn't understand your

98
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:08.960
band until I saw it live, right, And it's very

99
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:10.759
easy to say that about ICP as well, like I

100
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:12.520
didn't get it, but you see them live, I was like, dude,

101
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:15.039
I will go to their shows forever ever. Seeing that

102
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:16.040
that was so much fun.

103
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:19.040
You guys should do a tour together. I like the

104
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:20.439
most badass tour.

105
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:22.600
If they like knighted me as a jugglo, I'd do

106
00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:25.160
it right, Like I want to be put on game

107
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:26.000
by them.

108
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:29.279
By them nice and only them. The heads.

109
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:31.040
I love it, Yeah, the head Jugs.

110
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.959
Let's talk about your newest song, Savior. Yeah.

111
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:38.839
So, how do you feel that's evolved from your previous music?

112
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:40.439
What makes it unique?

113
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:42.600
It's just different because like I feel like it's more

114
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:44.439
of a mature sound, but it's staying true to us.

115
00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:46.079
And every band's gonna give you the same answer, which

116
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:48.800
is exactly that. But it's like to me, I feel

117
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:50.319
it's one of the best songs we've ever done, and

118
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.560
it's like, how do you get better but still sound

119
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:54.920
like you? Is the struggle every band has, and I

120
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:56.199
feel like we actually did it.

121
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:57.680
It's like heavy, it's still us.

122
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:00.240
There's a lot of people on the song just have

123
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:01.519
to listen to it, like a lot, even like my

124
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:04.000
own kid. Finally, like after visiting us on tours, like, Man,

125
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:05.079
that song so much better.

126
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:05.279
Than I thought.

127
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.120
I noticed Marley was like singing Savior on the bus

128
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:09.519
and I'm just like, why are you singing safe?

129
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:11.000
She's like, well, I was listening to it and like

130
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:12.120
it came out a month ago.

131
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:13.240
That's great.

132
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.920
Yeah, And of course during the mixing process and all that,

133
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:18.560
we're listening to it a thousand times. But yeah, man,

134
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:20.639
Savior is a really special one for me too, and

135
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:22.360
we're really stoked on it.

136
00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:23.920
We're seeing the response live.

137
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:26.800
A lot of people are really just like connecting with it.

138
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:27.160
It's good.

139
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.439
That's the most important part right there. Yea, Especially in

140
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.160
the world we live in today. That's where we need

141
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:35.199
music more than ever and people to be able to

142
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:35.920
connect to it.

143
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:38.040
I mean, if we don't like the song ourselves, we

144
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.360
won't release it. We've trashed so many songs and people

145
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:42.160
like this one might do well at radio. Let's put

146
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:43.639
it out. And we're not like that. If we don't

147
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:45.360
like it, we're not putting it out. We've trashed a

148
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:46.120
lot of songs.

149
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:46.720
Yeah.

150
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.000
I love that about you, because you gotta be true

151
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.639
as an artist. There's two types of artists. There's arts

152
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:56.240
that they're just true artists, and they're very picky about

153
00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:59.439
their own art. Yeah, and then there's those that think

154
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:02.319
they're gonna become a rock star, which doesn't even existing.

155
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:04.920
Yeah, it's like gut it has to pass, like our

156
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:08.279
gut test, Like is this us? Is this the best

157
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:11.079
week in show that represents us? Now?

158
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:13.199
And if it's not, fuck it, get rid of it.

159
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:15.759
Otherwise how can you even have a good live show?

160
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:16.959
Like exactly if you're not.

161
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:19.720
If you're not believing it, how are we believing it?

162
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:22.000
If you swing and miss, you look stupid? Like this

163
00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:23.720
is gonna be big at radio and it's not big.

164
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:26.639
I'm like, you just released a watered down version song

165
00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:28.519
of yourself and it didn't do well.

166
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:31.480
Now people will hold it against you for like a mile.

167
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:33.480
That's why you gotta be true yourself as an art.

168
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:34.519
We learned the hard way. We had a lot of

169
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:37.120
pressure back in the day from labels and manage and everyone,

170
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.879
like they'd be like, we're not We're so poorer and broke.

171
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:41.720
They're like we're not gonna give you like an advance

172
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:43.120
if you don't do what we say, and like I

173
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:44.800
couldn't even pay my rent, so I was like I

174
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.279
don't have a choice but to listen to them.

175
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.240
They'd hold us like that, Yeah, totally.

176
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.120
Kept us broken poored so they could control us. And

177
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:52.519
finally I was like, you know, this ain't worth it.

178
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:53.399
I'm gonna do what I want.

179
00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:56.279
See That's why I love better about music today.

180
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.240
Like in the eighties, it was like that with all

181
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:00.680
the bands when they would set used to be there

182
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:04.120
on the sunset strip backstage, and they're like telling these

183
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.839
bands what their music should sound like. And I think

184
00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:11.240
the business people should handle the business end and the

185
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:13.560
artists should handle the creative.

186
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:15.480
In period, man, we've.

187
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.000
Had a lot of charathow shape, but managers be like

188
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:18.439
you everything about doing this with the song. I'm like,

189
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:19.639
do you even play an instrument?

190
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:20.240
Right? Like?

191
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:21.879
And you're telling me what we should do on like

192
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.839
the bridge, I was like, get out of here, like crazy.

193
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.000
To me, you're just like chiming in. Just to say

194
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:27.800
they chimed in.

195
00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:30.079
They're trying to A and R the song when it

196
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:30.680
wasn't asked for.

197
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:35.399
I find this is like the only industry where people

198
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:39.519
don't have to have experience and whatever. They're telling other

199
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.120
people what to do. Like you go into any business

200
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:46.319
environment you're not telling somebody that's been doing what you're

201
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.720
doing above you how to do things.

202
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:52.839
You have to climb the ladder. And I think same here.

203
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:56.759
Like you said, if I was a guitarist, I would

204
00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:59.160
never have somebody that never picked up a guitar in

205
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:00.920
their life telling me how to play guitar.

206
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:02.920
Yeah, yeah, straight up, bro right.

207
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:06.600
Yeah, this is the one industry that's yeah, dude, that's insane.

208
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:08.120
It's weird because.

209
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.600
All the times. Another weird thing is like, so one

210
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:13.079
industry is okay to like publicly berate people and be

211
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:15.199
little like I'm talking about the crew guys behind the scenes,

212
00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:17.040
Like you could just yell at someone in front of

213
00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:19.959
everyone and threaten them and call them names. Imagine doing

214
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.079
that in an office. I don't like that stuff. I

215
00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:24.240
don't like them when people humiliate and bully other people.

216
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:26.319
So like the crew guys will be yelling at someone

217
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:27.959
in front everyone, and I'm like, dude, like I'm gonna

218
00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:30.519
have to knock you out, like because that's not cool. Well,

219
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.000
they messed up. I'm like, imagine doing that in an office.

220
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:35.320
You know what, Like we all mess up. It's all

221
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:36.480
how you handle it.

222
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:38.480
Like, yeah, but you're not allowed to do that anywhere.

223
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.360
Try not to make the same mistake again. And yeah,

224
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:44.399
but belittling and shit, we don't we won't stand for it.

225
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.919
Bro Our crew guys are like our bus drivers. Like

226
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:49.320
I've never seen the line blurred between band and crew

227
00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:51.440
so hard. Your crew guys act like they're in the band.

228
00:08:51.480 --> 00:08:53.759
The ship they say to you, guys, blows my mind.

229
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:57.879
I love hearing that because there are live artists out there,

230
00:08:57.960 --> 00:08:59.840
like what you were talking about before. So I always

231
00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:02.960
love when I talk to people that work for or

232
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.639
with the artists and they're like talking about how great

233
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.840
they're treated. That's like my favorite thing because without the

234
00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:12.960
whole crew, the show does not go on.

235
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:14.039
That's it, man.

236
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:17.080
I think honestly, our crew it's like a family too.

237
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:19.879
We've been with our crew for so long. Our stage manager,

238
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:22.679
guitar Tech, he's been with the band since the very beginning.

239
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:25.320
I don't know of any other bands that have somebody

240
00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.399
that's been with them from the very beginning of twenty

241
00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:28.000
year career.

242
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:29.799
Hey, yeah, we let them do whatever they want. As

243
00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:31.159
long as you do your job. I don't care how

244
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:34.080
hammered you get every night, Like, just don't mess the

245
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:34.519
show up.

246
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:37.639
Exactly, as long as you do your job and do

247
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.080
it right exactly. And I've sat side stage on your

248
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.600
shows and I've watched the people up there working. You

249
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:46.720
could tell that they really care and they're really on it,

250
00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:49.679
and they're making sure that you guys ye have the

251
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:50.960
best performance pot.

252
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:52.240
Yeah, our guitar tech he's talking about.

253
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:53.080
We call him King Dawn.

254
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:54.960
Yeah, he's worked for all the bands in the eighties.

255
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:57.879
And someone gets on stage, he's still like a bullet,

256
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:00.559
runs at him and tackles him like he that guy

257
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:01.399
moves when he needs to.

258
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.919
He did become famous on Ship Rocked.

259
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:07.639
Like everyone, like the promoter was like, I've never experienced

260
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:09.320
anything like that in my life, Like that was the

261
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.440
most famous guy to ever stepped foot on that boat.

262
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:13.720
I'm like in my it was in my room and

263
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:17.639
there the PIA system's talking about King Dawn, like right, yeah.

264
00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:20.200
Even when we were leaving to get off the ship.

265
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.240
It was like they were calling him like Kingden or

266
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:25.159
something like that. Kingden. I was like, king Don, it's

267
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:25.679
king Don.

268
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.120
He did the family feud with us, yes, and he

269
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:30.679
got the last answer to win the game, right, and

270
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:32.039
it was strippers.

271
00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:33.960
That that, Yeah, and it made him and he was

272
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:36.960
so fricking drunk. Yeah too.

273
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.679
It was like he pounded his talkin instead of well, well,

274
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:43.600
we were like, let's get him drunk. We gave him

275
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:46.000
a bottle of tequila at nine am. Let's get him hammered.

276
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:46.600
And it worked.

277
00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:49.320
It did work, for sure, but it made him like

278
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:53.159
to start a whole Ship's made him. Everybody you'll remember

279
00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:56.759
from ship Rock came on and what a rivalry between

280
00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:59.159
you guys in Parkway Drive with that family FEUDU.

281
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:01.559
Yeah, I hope they still because I feel like they

282
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:03.399
wanted to beat us really bad and at the corn

283
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:03.960
hole and all that.

284
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.559
After I've talked to Wednesday a couple of times after,

285
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:09.399
he's just mad as bad because none of them could

286
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:10.600
get the answers.

287
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:14.240
Right, Yeah, that that whole like the y they literally

288
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:16.360
like handed at the wind, they handed at the King

289
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:18.200
down on a platter. I was like, that was the

290
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:20.960
easiest answer, Like come on, like, I love totally.

291
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:25.519
Yeah, So would you say that's your favorite story of

292
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:28.039
twenty twenty five words or one better?

293
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:31.320
He doesn't get better than King down on that boat man, right,

294
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:36.000
I was like, and I'll never forget. And he was

295
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:38.360
walking through the ocean with his shoes on and his

296
00:11:38.440 --> 00:11:41.360
clothes and everyone's like, why are you have all your

297
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:43.720
clothes on the ocean. He's like, because I'm a nube.

298
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:47.120
And I was in the airport afterwards, people are coming

299
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:48.639
up to me like can you take a photo of me?

300
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:50.759
And King Donald was like, yeah, yeah, sure, Like they

301
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:52.799
don't care if I'm in the band, they want his photo.

302
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:53.679
I love it.

303
00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:56.440
That's I loved watching that for him.

304
00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:58.840
Right, it was so much fun. But then I watch

305
00:11:58.919 --> 00:12:00.960
him up on stage with you Got and he's on

306
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:03.200
it man, like oh yeah, yeah, oh my god.

307
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:04.039
He moves what he needs to.

308
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:09.799
Yeah, Like he beats say the younger people working hands.

309
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:12.639
Down our crew, like looks like the Devil's reject poster,

310
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.519
you know, like a like a rob zombie film. It

311
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.919
just looks like they look like they shouldn't even be alive,

312
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:20.840
and like something's animating their bodies.

313
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:22.480
Like love it?

314
00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:25.120
