I just have to say, right off the bat, you

12
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:19.599
absolutely freaking killed it last night.

13
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:21.560
Thank you so much. It was so much fun.

14
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:23.560
Honestly, Like, it's funny because you only get such like

15
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.239
a short amount of rehearsal time, so you're never too

16
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.280
short if it's gonna go good or if it's gonna

17
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.239
be an absolute clusterfuck. But actually it was so much fun, honestly,

18
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:32.560
if you just got there and have fun, it was.

19
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:34.239
It was amazing. It was so fun to play with

20
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:34.680
these people.

21
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.920
I was watching the rehearsal the other day, I'm like, man,

22
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.040
how are these people ever gonna perform these songs on

23
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:43.920
like one rehearsal deck.

24
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.200
Honestly, God knows, right, just luck you just pray to

25
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.239
God and then it just proves.

26
00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:51.280
You guys are pros because it's not even like the

27
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.400
genre that you're in. But that's even harder.

28
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:56.640
Yeah, they got me playing material girl, which is all

29
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:01.200
like super feel like one note like, which is I'm

30
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:03.760
like heavy cords riffs all day, and I was like, god,

31
00:02:03.799 --> 00:02:05.920
I have the feel of like the whitest girl ever,

32
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.400
like I do don't have any feel So it was

33
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:10.240
that was definitely a challenge, but it's good. It pushes

34
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.199
you outside your comfort zone and like to play with

35
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:14.199
people you've never played with before as well.

36
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:16.960
It's I don't know, it's a challenge, but it's so

37
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:17.439
much fun.

38
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:20.120
It must be fun too to play like different music

39
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:22.319
than you're used to because you have even though you

40
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:24.560
love what you're doing, sometimes you have the monotony when

41
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:27.479
you're doing the same genre all the time. Definitely, it's

42
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:31.719
almost like not from a professional or musical stamp by point,

43
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.120
but mindset for you guys, I think it's almost like

44
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.520
doing karaoke. We're just going have fun.

45
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:37.479
That's so true.

46
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:40.280
It really is, especially like eighties stuff because everyone knows

47
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.039
the songs. They're such bops and you can't not just

48
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:45.879
have so much fun with it, so it was Yeah,

49
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:47.439
it was so much fun on stage, and then you

50
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:49.360
feel so good once it's done. You feel like you've

51
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:51.599
all like accomplished something really big as well, so you're

52
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:53.319
like united forever.

53
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:55.960
No doubt. And that's what I noticed too, because I

54
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:58.800
look at everything and it's like you guys were like

55
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:03.240
just totally bonding up there. Yeah, okay, Whereas when you're

56
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:07.240
doing festivals or you know, you don't have that same chance,

57
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:11.400
even if you're bonded and friendly, like everybody's like in

58
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:13.240
such a rush to do everything that you don't have

59
00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:14.759
that chance exactly.

60
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:18.120
And I think there's something about especially this scenario where

61
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:19.319
we're all playing songs we're not.

62
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:22.560
Necessarily like used to. It's quite vulnerable, do you know

63
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:22.800
what I mean?

64
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.840
Because everyone is like a little bit nervous, everyone's a

65
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:26.599
little unsure, And I feel like it's that kind of

66
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.879
vulnerability and the messing up in rehearsals and all of

67
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:31.800
this stuff that kind of bonds you together even more

68
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.319
because you're all kind of in it together. There's this big,

69
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:36.719
like community feel, which is really cool.

70
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:40.319
Totally, And you guys had from talking to some of

71
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:44.360
my friends a lot of technical issues. Let's call it

72
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:46.280
like five bass pedals.

73
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:49.599
Yeah, the drum pedals were crazy. They were just during

74
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:51.280
the first song as well. I was doing We Built

75
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:53.599
This City, and poor Haley, her drum pedal just like

76
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.199
fell apart. But she like it shows a professionalism people

77
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:58.159
because she kept it going.

78
00:03:58.319 --> 00:03:59.719
I didn't even really I was doing so low. I

79
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:01.759
didn't I in the text.

80
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:04.759
Like, I just thought maybe a drumstick dropped or the

81
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:08.840
tech was like tune in the drum. Yeah, I didn't

82
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:12.520
know that there was a broken pedal. It happened five times.

83
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:16.360
She even told me there was a hole in the

84
00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:20.319
bass drum at the end. Oh my god, imagine you

85
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.319
hit the bass drum and I just go straight through right, like,

86
00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:26.319
I don't think that's meant to happen. But see that

87
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.120
is the eighties because I remember. I remember being at

88
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:34.040
the US festival. Yeah, and I was sitting there during

89
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:39.120
Van Halen and they started talking about love and that's

90
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:41.160
one of my favorite songs is that's like the first

91
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:46.240
song I ever learned guitar on and Edie's playing but

92
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.639
Dave's not singing, and they're all looking over to him,

93
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:54.120
and Dave just goes typical Dave. He goes, three hundred

94
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:59.079
thousand people, I fucking forgot the words, and the whole

95
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.519
crowd like it was the best thing that ever happened.

96
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:08.000
And then one person in the whole crowd heckled yeah,

97
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.000
and he playing on me. He was like, I will

98
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.079
fuck your girlfriend.

99
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:14.920
And he probably did.

100
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:16.759
But that's the thing is that I feel like that's

101
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.519
what makes live performances is these like mistakes and these

102
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:22.160
unique things that happened that someone can say it makes

103
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:23.839
it memorable. Someone could say, oh, I was there when

104
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:26.040
this happened. I was there when that happened. And that's

105
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.959
sort of the joy and the beauty of music, especially

106
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.120
like rock musick.

107
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:31.399
I think as well, it's like.

108
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.519
A specific kind of community about it that I think

109
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.600
everyone likes to feel like it's human, do you know

110
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:37.000
what I mean?

111
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:38.160
And it's human to do that stuff.

112
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:39.600
And that's the thing I've had to learn because I

113
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:41.360
had really bad imposter syndrome.

114
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:41.720
For quite a while.

115
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:43.800
Well I felt like I couldn't because I did a

116
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:45.800
lot online, so I grew up where everything can be

117
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:48.240
like edited, filmed a million times and stuff. So it's

118
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:50.399
only when I had the transition to live and obviously

119
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.439
you can't play something a million times and you hit

120
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:52.839
a wrong No.

121
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:54.839
I was like, oh, well that's not good enough, right,

122
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:55.360
do you know what I mean?

123
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:57.199
So that's the thing I've learned in my years now,

124
00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:59.279
and now I've been performing for quite a few years now.

125
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:01.879
Now I've you know, finally kind of got to the

126
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:03.759
part where I accept that and I can enjoy those

127
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:04.600
moments as well.

128
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:08.000
Who do you think is your biggest influence as a guitarist.

129
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:09.879
That's a good question.

130
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:12.199
I think it changes like every day, depending on what

131
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:12.759
I'm doing.

132
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:18.160
I that's a rock thing too. I've had different favorite bands,

133
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:22.240
Like it's like chronological, like going up a Hill, It's like, okay,

134
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:24.439
they were my favorite. That Navy Game, you know, it

135
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:25.040
builds on.

136
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:28.480
It exactly like I think my original. The person that

137
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:30.480
kind of got me into guitar was Joe Satriani. He's

138
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.839
surfing with the Alien album was nice one that I

139
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:36.279
absolutely loved. And someone else I think that had a

140
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:39.959
big influence was David Gilmour. When I started listening to

141
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.480
the comfortably Numb stuff and like, you know, kind of

142
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:44.360
his feel I feel like for a long time I

143
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.439
kind of just shredded for the sake of shredding without

144
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:48.720
much feel into it. And when I started getting into him,

145
00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:51.800
that was when I noticed that I started to put

146
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:53.800
more feel and more emotion and try and like tell

147
00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:56.199
these stories and it wasn't just about all the silly

148
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.480
nonsense and look how us I can play stuff.

149
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:01.720
See. I love hearing that, because I've talked about that before,

150
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:06.759
Like there's shredders I like, and there's shredders that bore me,

151
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:10.600
you know, yeah, and I like that maybe the first time,

152
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:13.639
and then after that, well it's just the same exactly.

153
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:14.079
That's the thing.

154
00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:16.560
It's only and it's if you're just treading for the

155
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:18.720
whole thing and there's no kind of story or emotion

156
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:21.120
to it, it does get pretty unlistenable.

157
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:21.120
Because you're like, oh.

158
00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:23.800
At first it's like oh cool, and then it's like, okay, now,

159
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:25.439
now what can I hang on to? What's like the

160
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:28.279
melody behind this or something that I can because as humans,

161
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:30.560
we want to hear like a repetitive lick or something

162
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:32.759
that we can like hang on to, like you do

163
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:34.600
with the vocals, you know, like they have a chorus,

164
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:36.800
and that's what people say. You want to achieve a

165
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.000
similar thing when you're soloing, or when if you're just

166
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:41.360
doing an instrumental song, you know, something that people can

167
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:44.720
hang on to and listen and it sticks in their brain,

168
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:45.639
you know, creates.

169
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:46.040
That ear one.

170
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.160
It makes so much sense because I think of it

171
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:52.639
almost like when they're shredding, they're just doing scales, like practicing.

172
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:55.480
Yeah, well, yeah exactly, And honestly, that's the biggest trick

173
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:57.879
of all is the same with the legato stuff, is

174
00:07:57.879 --> 00:07:59.720
really just running up and down the scales and making

175
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.160
it make it sound fancy, which has its place.

176
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:04.639
I do that way too much, probably as well, but.

177
00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:06.240
I think it's important to do that and then ends

178
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:08.079
up with like a cool blues lick that.

179
00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:13.560
Makes it interesting something in exactly yeah, exactly. Like it

180
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:17.079
might be an unpopular opinion, but I love Dave and Hilm,

181
00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:19.439
but I didn't think it was as great as everybody thought,

182
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:24.639
because that is opinion, right, But I thought it was great.

183
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:27.079
But like some of the things, it was what we're

184
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:28.800
talking about. Sometimes it was just the.

185
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:30.879
Yeah, I think the thing is with him he was

186
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.320
kind of the first to do it. Yeah, well I

187
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.240
doubt he was like the first. He probably had influences

188
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:36.480
it before but he was the first that did it

189
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:39.519
on like such a mainstream scale that everyone saw, and

190
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:41.159
he did it live, and he had these like a

191
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.759
cappella moments where there was no band. It was just

192
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:46.320
him that kind of showed it off a lot, more

193
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:47.759
like they were a band that kind of really showed

194
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:50.159
it off. Whereas I think before that kind of hadn't

195
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.320
have been done. But yeah, I guess like things that

196
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:54.840
wouldn't necessarily work now because it has been done before,

197
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:56.679
Like so many people can play like that, you know,

198
00:08:57.080 --> 00:08:58.639
there needs to be something else, Like.

199
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.679
To me rarely, Roads was a whole another level.

200
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.360
Oh, he was phenomenal. He's another like massive influence for

201
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:08.200
me as well. And I think his creativity with music

202
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.759
as well, I think is really like kind of inspiring.

203
00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:11.960
Like I think it was him that kind of did

204
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.639
the two hands slides stuff, And that's the thing I've

205
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:17.240
incorporated into my playing a lot. Like I love like

206
00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:20.000
just his uniqueness and things that I was playing.

207
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:21.000
I just think it's really cool.

208
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:23.679
Nice And so you teach guitar. In fact, you did

209
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:25.440
clinic here on ship Rock correct.

210
00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:26.639
Yeah, it was more of it.

211
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:28.240
I feel I can't play as much as I shared

212
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.240
it was more of a Q and A and me

213
00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:30.480
talking about my dog way too much.

214
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.480
You know essentials right, Well, tell us about your dog.

215
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:37.080
My dog is just incredible.

216
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:39.039
He's a rescue, he's a half burny his mountain dog,

217
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:40.840
half beagle, and he's just the best.

218
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:41.639
I miss him so much.

219
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:44.639
I've been away from her for so long, and as

220
00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:46.639
he pissed at you because you're gone all the time.

221
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.720
Oh yes, oh, I well think is we have two cats,

222
00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:51.480
and whenever I get an animal, I'll go on tour

223
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:53.720
and then the animal will start liking my other half

224
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.200
better because I'm away, and I'll come home and suddenly

225
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:57.879
they won't want to cuddle me, they want to cuddle him.

226
00:09:57.879 --> 00:09:59.639
So then I have to buy another animal, you know.

227
00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:02.039
So now I went on our third and maybe when

228
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:04.240
we get back, I'll have to buy another one because

229
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:05.200
they were like me as much.

230
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:06.080
You know, so nice.

231
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:07.399
I'm planning to build a farm.

232
00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:12.759
I love it. I normally cover like download and bloodstock

233
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:13.799
on your side.

234
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:15.200
Yeah yeah.

235
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.360
How do you, as an artist feel the difference of

236
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:21.440
plane in the UK compared to plane in the US.

237
00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:22.519
I think UK.

238
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:24.960
Well, I'm kind of biased towards the UK obviously, like

239
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.519
you say that's where I'm from, so.

240
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:29.480
I think I am too. By the way, I even

241
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.159
married a British girl before.

242
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:32.519
Oh very wise, I'm.

243
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:33.360
Not married to her now.

244
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.840
But I'm sorry on behalf of Britain. But i think

245
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.159
UK crowds just go crazy, like they just.

246
00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:40.519
Want to more.

247
00:10:40.559 --> 00:10:44.519
Shouldn't be crazy and stupid and you know, love doing

248
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:46.080
like the Walls of Death and everything.

249
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.240
Love to get involved. America, it depends what state you're in.

250
00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:51.279
LA is quite a tough state to play.

251
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.039
We recently did a show at the Whiskey and actually

252
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:54.039
it went down amazingly.

253
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:55.159
But when I play a lot.

254
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:56.960
I'm in a band with Machine Gun Kelly, and when

255
00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:58.480
we play a lot of LA, everyone is just kind

256
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:00.480
of standing there with their phones like and wants to

257
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:03.159
get like good people like aren't facing They're like facing

258
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:06.240
away filming their face and you behind them. And I'm like,

259
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.159
that's so weird, right, I'm like, just watch it and

260
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:09.840
enjoy it, you know.

261
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:12.120
And even me when these people are in front of

262
00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:15.200
me and I'm looking at their screen for a second,

263
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:18.720
I'm gone, how are they sitting watching the whole set

264
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.000
through their screen? That does not look good?

265
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:21.679
Exactly.

266
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:24.200
That's forget everything else. It doesn't even look good.

267
00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:26.000
I know, And there's like a million people filming the

268
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:28.120
exact same thing. Like you can literally go on YouTube

269
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:29.399
and watch it the next day and it's going to

270
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:30.480
be a better quality than yours.

271
00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:32.639
And that's my point, Like just stay home.

272
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:34.799
Then, yeah exactly, that's watch YouTube.

273
00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:36.440
If that's what you're gonna do, because these people are

274
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:40.000
never going to look at that video again probably, and

275
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:41.519
then they missed the experience.

276
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:43.639
And like music is such like you want to be

277
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:45.440
in it. It's a community feel. You want to be

278
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:47.080
feeling it with the people around you, and you miss

279
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:48.639
that if you're just watching it through a screen and

280
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:50.679
then everyone behind you is probably watching it through your

281
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:51.440
screen as well.

282
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.399
Just no doubt. Yeah, it's kind of annoying at times

283
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.679
when you're like all the after phone times, like yeah,

284
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:02.559
Corey Tailor did the best thing one. I thought somebody

285
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.440
was on their phone texting very front row.

286
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:05.600
Now.

287
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:08.679
Yeah, first of all, even if I was somebody that

288
00:12:08.919 --> 00:12:12.320
which I'm not, would text during the performance unless I

289
00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:15.039
have to because I'm working, you know, I would never

290
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:18.360
do it in the front row. My god, Like, what

291
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:20.879
are you doing in the front row? Do that?

292
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:22.120
That's a prestigious spot.

293
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.679
The artist is like, the artists can see you, they

294
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:25.879
are watching what you're Oh yeah.

295
00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:28.759
He went up to that person and slapped the phone

296
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.519
at her and then said something.

297
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:32.639
Dude, I rate that.

298
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:34.559
Like, Honestly, if you're in the front row, you need

299
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:36.120
to be in it one hundred percent. You need to

300
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:38.000
be eye contact with the band members. You need to

301
00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:41.799
be singing all the lyrics exactly exactly. That's and I'm

302
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:44.279
such like, I'm still such a fan girl. Like even

303
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:46.960
yesterday when we were doing Stairway set when I wasn't playing,

304
00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:48.639
I was right at the front in front of the barriers,

305
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:51.480
dancing my ass off, singing all the songs. I'm such

306
00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.360
a fangirl. So I was that girl in like the

307
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:55.200
front road, do you know what I mean, like growing.

308
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:57.399
Up and I saw you doing that last night. So

309
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:01.639
it's I'm telling everybody that's a true, true story. Okay,

310
00:13:02.120 --> 00:13:06.080
But I love that because it's like, if you're going

311
00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:07.559
to be a musician, you're.

312
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.759
A fan first, yeah exactly.

313
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:12.600
And if you're not, how can you appeal to the fans?

314
00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:15.679
Actually you have to be inside their feelings in their head,

315
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:18.200
and you know you're playing for you, but you're playing for.

316
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:19.159
Them too, exactly.

317
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:21.799
And that's kind of the great thing that getting off

318
00:13:21.799 --> 00:13:25.879
the internet like into live live playing, getting to meet

319
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:28.519
everyone and have that kind of personal experience where you're

320
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:30.879
getting the feedback from the crowd has just been so

321
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:34.080
incredible because, like I said, I feel like I kind

322
00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:36.000
of do everything I do in my career for my

323
00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:37.639
fourteen year old self, if you know what I mean,

324
00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:40.200
for that girl that was just like wanted to meet

325
00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:42.080
all the Baton members and was so excited when like

326
00:13:42.080 --> 00:13:43.840
a new album came out, was like first in line

327
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:45.519
at like hving at the meet and great, Like I

328
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.399
do it all kind of for that girl. So whenever

329
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:50.159
I see people like that at the shows in the

330
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:52.200
front where I singing all the songs like wanting to

331
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:54.279
look at you and have a moment with you, like,

332
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:57.200
it's so impactful, and that's like one of the things

333
00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:59.600
that really kind of inspires me the most to keep

334
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:02.279
doing what I'm doing. It's just those moments and connecting

335
00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:03.000
with people like that.

336
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:05.240
And there's a go blow your mind too, because I'm

337
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:07.879
sure it happens whether you knows it or not, that

338
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:11.639
like you're you're fan girling out. But then there's other

339
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:16.159
artists that are like probably your heroes are like huge

340
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.960
that are fanboying or fangirling on you.

341
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:21.279
I know, that's the weirdest part.

342
00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:23.679
I had a moment with Lizzie Hale as she sings

343
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:26.559
a song on my album Accord Imposter Syndrome, and I

344
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:28.120
met her for the first time at one of her

345
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:30.480
shows and she was incredible and she was just and

346
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.919
then she told me she was taking my online guitar of.

347
00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:34.679
Course, like my True five course to learn how to

348
00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:35.240
play guitar.

349
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:38.159
And I was like, oh my god, and like that

350
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:40.399
was such a cool moment for me because it's like,

351
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:41.480
you know, one of my heroes.

352
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:42.960
I've had, you know, her on my wall. I used

353
00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:43.879
to sing on the way to school.

354
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:46.519
I would sing, you know, all of her songs, like

355
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:48.799
in the car with my mum. And just to have

356
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:50.320
that moment where she was like, oh, yeah, I'm learning

357
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:51.840
from you, like you're a good I want to play

358
00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:53.639
like you like it was just such a cool moment.

359
00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:55.759
That's the best compliment you can get, exactly.

360
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:56.080
Yeah.

361
00:14:56.120 --> 00:14:58.159
So that's definitely even thing that stuck with me. And

362
00:14:58.200 --> 00:14:59.960
it's just like you never know who's watching stuff.

363
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:02.840
That's true. So now let's tell everybody how they can

364
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:06.519
connect you on socials, check out your website, check out

365
00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:09.360
your online lessons, everything you do.

366
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:11.480
Yes, well, my name is Sophie Lloyd.

367
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:13.919
Again if you type that in on YouTube my I

368
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:15.600
think my YouTube channel is just Sophie Lloyd.

369
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:16.960
I should know the handle, but I don't.

370
00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:21.000
Instagram is at Sophie Guitar underscore Sophie Guitar was taken

371
00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:23.039
very annoying, so you have to add the underscore. And

372
00:15:23.039 --> 00:15:25.919
then obviously my album is out on Spotify. My website

373
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:27.960
is Sophie Guitar dot com where we're selling you know,

374
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:31.080
physical copies, signed vinyls, a bunch of March and all

375
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:31.360
of that.

376
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:33.320
Lessons are on True Fire.

377
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.960
Got two lessons on there which I think are pretty cool,

378
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:39.039
so maybe check them out. And then I have a

379
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.879
patron as well for anyone that wants more BTS content.

380
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:44.039
We do like a weekly podcast on there and stuff,

381
00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:45.799
and that's kind of where we get to know and

382
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:47.799
we get a really good community going on there, which

383
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:48.440
is really nice.

384
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:50.120
We have little pizza parties and zoom pats.

385
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:51.159
It's a lot of fun.

386
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:53.480
Yeah, it's a nice way to connect with people, and like,

387
00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:55.799
you know, it's beautiful, and they've all made such good

388
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.480
friends as well, Like there's a proper little like they're

389
00:15:57.480 --> 00:15:59.519
all mates. They all meet up outside like they just

390
00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.159
had like a true to New York, which is so cooled. Like, yeah,

391
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:03.759
we've got some really good people over there.

392
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:07.639
I love hearing that. And we are a community, so

393
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:09.360
it should be that way one hundred percent.

394
00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:10.799
