00:00Hello, my name is Flores. I'm playing in a band called The Vices and we just released a record
00:15before my begone and now we're touring through the US and this is the vehicle that we're traveling in.
00:19Let's go.
00:21I'll give you a little tour of this. It's way bigger inside.
00:28Simon, the driver without the license. So during the tour, our creepy tour manager is doing the driving.
00:44We're just chilling back here. Yeah, Matthew or me or anyone can be in here really.
00:51This is the best spot. This is the best spot. So we tried to rotate it and I haven't sit there.
00:59The whole tour. Yeah. You have to claim it.
01:03Yeah. Why is this the best spot? I think it's because you got the cup holder. You can control the music.
01:10You can control where you're driving to. So if you feel like driving somewhere else,
01:15you can just fuck with the navigation. I mean, driver got to follow that.
01:21Lag space. It's very generous.
01:28Okay, what music we've been listening to in here. I think, what have we been listening to?
01:33When we were in New York, we listened to a lot of hip-hop, a lot of Velvet Underground.
01:40It's some jazz music.
01:42Jazz indeed.
01:43Jazz music.
01:44So we listened to that and it's quite, the music goes like into a lot of different places.
01:52We are very different people who like very different things, so it can be everywhere.
01:57And our creepy tour manager has a very broad taste in music too.
02:00Okay, so this is very important. We don't recognize our tour manager without the hat and the glasses.
02:06They are mandatory for that. So this is Arnie.
02:10Shit, my hairline is...
02:16Yeah, I need to go to Turkey in a bit.
02:18My impression?
02:29So, now let me show you the back, because that's where it's really happening.
02:33Our creepy tour manager has... There he goes.
02:37Let's get it.
02:38Hello.
02:39So here, we got band members.
02:42And behind the band members, we got our kitchen and our...
02:45Well, I'll keep that a secret.
02:46Yeah, there we go.
02:48At the music studio, so it's, yeah, it's back there.
02:51Well, I've been watching Breaking Bad a lot and drinking orange juice.
02:57Yes, and sometimes, well, mostly sleeping and just trying like lying like this with my head
03:05between here and then the window, that's a good spot.
03:08And then you have some really nice chargers over here in the seat where I can charge my phone.
03:13And also, like, just pushing this button a lot because it's fun.
03:18And, yeah, that's kind of what we do back here.
03:22Yeah, and this is our working position and we also have our sleeping position.
03:25Jonathan, three, two, one.
03:27I don't know how to do that.
03:28Oh, you don't?
03:29I haven't seen it.
03:29I haven't seen it.
03:30Well, I'm way ahead of Jonathan.
03:32Shit.
03:33Fuck, I have a lot to learn.
03:34It's really comfortable.
03:34I have a lot to learn in this family.
03:35Yes, exactly.
03:36Yeah.
03:37As you can see, we've got the recording area and we've got the kitchen.
03:44We have in the kitchen, we've got fruit, which is very scarce in the United States, I believe.
03:48Well, it seemed like it.
03:52So we got fruit, we got ice, and then we got straws to drink the ice.
03:58The studio here, we got my Stratocaster, which I love very dearly.
04:03It's Bluetooth.
04:04So here we got my favorite Bluetooth Strat from 1973.
04:07It was quite ahead of his time.
04:08It's the best doll ever in James Bond.
04:11Yeah, and yeah.
04:14I just really love that guitar.
04:16The last seat.
04:18Yeah, it's a dangerous seat.
04:19Does anyone want to tell about the last seat?
04:21It's kind of wide.
04:23Nobody wants to sit in the last seat.
04:24No, or you do.
04:26Or you do.
04:27It depends on your mood.
04:28Yeah, it depends on how much time you have to shower.
04:33It depends on your level of frustration.
04:36So at the end of the night, we get everything in.
04:39And I think Matthew is often in control of how we sort of load it in.
04:44So you got two amps there.
04:46Then you got a big suitcase on top of that.
04:49You got a couple of guitars, a snare, cymbals, a piano, which goes in between there.
04:56And then this seat is, well, someone is sitting there.
04:59But it's like very cramped up.
05:01Like, like how-
05:02Private.
05:03I'm sorry?
05:04It's private.
05:04Yeah, it's very private.
05:05That, yeah.
05:06Yeah.
05:06Yeah.
05:07Yeah.
05:08Yeah.
05:09Got its advantages.
05:10Thanks for checking out our van.
05:12As I said, the album is out before it might be gone.
05:15And we are from the Netherlands, but we will be back in the United States.
05:19Like, I don't know.
05:20This year, next year, soon.
05:23And we love it here.
05:24It's gonna be wild when we come back.
05:27See you then.

05:37Bye.
05:39Bye.
05:41Bye.
05:43Bye.
