Yeah, it's like you guys are like Johnny Cat performing for the prisoners. It's great. Hey, they need a little death medal. Of course they do because they're dying in there. You guys should play inside the prison.

2:12 That would be a lot of fun, say when I know, right, I'm gonna have to bring that up to wimm Or that we need a stage inside the prison. I feel like maybe if the tattoo thing wasn't going on, there'd be more space. Some of the cell blocks in there are very rotted. I don't know if we would have a very good safe place to be without getting a lot of tennis. Actually, want to know what I want tennis? You know what I do have a picture, Okay, it'd be hard for me to pull it up. But of me pretending to sit on one of the toilets in one of the cells. Yes, have you been to the Lil Wayne? Though I didn't know about Little Woe. Wayne shot a music video. You gotta go to a Cell's a gold toilet in there, Bro, what's you do with oh? Man? Yeah, you gotta go in there?

Yeah, I'm an idiot. Thank you for correcting me, though, seriously, I hate mispronouncing shit. But anyway, he told me about when he filmed the video in there. Yeah, and he. Came out and like was all scratched up and shit, oh in the torture room. Like, so you. Gotta get a ten of shot before and after? Yeah, no doubt. And when you go on that double up for safety and you. Go on that blood Prison tour, you don't really know if it's the characters haunting you or the real ghost haunting.

3:43 I'm the only one in there they need to be afraid of. I love that. I when I go haunted houses, I go and I try to scare them. I laugh when they try to scare me. Yeah. I find haunted houses to be extremely amusing, especially since I used to work. In them, right young, So you know it all. Chasing people around, yeah, no doubt. One time I took one of my media helpers and when people were going on the tour, we I said, you're gonna film some tiktoks and I was. Scaring people on the tour. I was like hiding out and scaring people. It was great. I would like that job for just like a few hours. Just do it. I wasn't It wasn't my job. I just went in there as media and did it. I'm gonna hide behind the cutout of Morgan Freeman from Shawshank and then like jump out and like do his voice.

4:34 Today. That don't test me, I'll do it, do it. I'll take that with me. I don't believe you'll do it. Oh all right, I do not except just all talk. Yeah. You go in there later and I'm like under the desk and I'm like, who's talking? Now oh yeah that Oh we'll see. Oh man, So how are you going to top in garceration? And how are you going to recover from this smoke? Well? I inhaled it for everyone when I just played. Because we're all good. We inhaled all the smoke. It's gone for everyone. I believe it because I don't smell it. I don't smell it anymore. I believe.

5:15 I think it dissipated. The winds have changed and things have breezed away. Yeah, let's I think. Unfortunately other places not the case. But we're lucky here. Oh it was nasty here last night, man. Yeah, this morning I was like talking to another urs I'm friends with him, like, how are. You going to get over a certain parts per million? You cannot go outside? And we were all out here. Yeah, Joe shame. I brought my can ninety five nice before I got on stage. They saved me. I think it's gonna take more parts per million than that to stop us. Yeah, there you go, there you go. Yeah, So how do you guys all get together? How did this all happen?

5:55 So I did a TikTok with him. He's a guitar and I was I actually auditioned for one of his old bands a while ago, and then we ended up being friends and then he's posted all these sick riffs on TikTok. So I'm like, I'm ana growl over some stuff. And then we kind of just turned out cool and then we're like, let's start a band, and then that's what happened, and then we called it Vigor Blood and then that was it nice. I love it and I do. Love And I found this guy on an app for musicians, like it was called like vamper or something, and I just found this random guy.
