00:00What's up guys, Alex Gute here, this is going to be my digital tour bus adventure, come
00:13on in.
00:14Alright, so we can start with the front seat here.
00:18This is usually where I don't sit at all.
00:20My guitar player, Jolly, literally always claims shotgun, this is his spot right here.
00:26We're usually just blasting some tunes up here, just kind of driving along.
00:30And then we have a new tour manager this tour, which we're very lucky to have, because he
00:35actually loves driving.
00:36No one else gets to drive, it's all him.
00:39Johnny, he takes over all duties of driving, we just kind of get to sit back and chill,
00:44just relax.
00:45But yeah.
00:46You want to check out what's on the dash up here?
00:48There's two Johnnies actually traveling with us.
00:50We have Asian Johnny and we have American Johnny.
00:52Asian Johnny won this hot dog at a Pizza Hut.
00:59Like his first try, literally dropped the claw down, he got this.
01:01And if you look close, look at his eyes right there, he looks a little under the influence
01:06of maybe something green, I mean he's a little red in the eyes, I don't know if you guys
01:09see that.
01:10But every time we cross a new state line, we take a little picture of the hot dog, just
01:14hanging out, having a good time.
01:17And then, you know, there's like always random stuff in the dash, like I said, we've got
01:24the shades in case it gets like sunny, you know, you can get like the double.
01:29If it gets real sunny, you know, we throw these on, so we can maintain visibility, take
01:34those off though.
01:35But yeah, let's go to the back, let's check some stuff out.
01:39We've got the sleeping quarters back here, some lights on, you know, we can look real
01:47fancy and nice.
01:50It's weird how like, how it works, we kind of have assigned seating in the van.
01:54You know on the school bus, when you had, everyone sat in the same place every day,
02:00just because, you just do.
02:01We've got my bass player right here, and I hang out usually right here, and my drummer's
02:07right here, that's always the way it is.
02:09Don't ask me why, I don't know, it's just how we sit.
02:12But we entertain ourselves, you know, just kind of telling each other dumb jokes and
02:17making fun of each other.
02:18That's how guys bond, I feel, we make fun of each other, we rip on each other.
02:22Girls compliment each other, fakely, all day long, guys rip on each other, that's what
02:26we do.
02:27It's a non-stop rip on each other fest all day long.
02:30But let's see what else we've got here.
02:32Let's explore some garbage.
02:34We've got Gatorade, wait no, that's vitamin water, just kidding.
02:40We've got some Izzy, I don't know if you guys like this at all, apparently Max doesn't like
02:45it very much either, because he didn't finish it.
02:48Oh, that's a nostril trimmer, let's put that away, I've got some longer hairs these days.
03:00You know, Max really doesn't like his Izzy.
03:03I have not seen one finished Izzy.
03:05I hope I'm saying that right too, I don't know.
03:10Apparently he doesn't like water either.
03:13Max has a whole little stash back here if you want to check it out.
03:18We got to the end of it kind of, but I guess he got pretty into this water.
03:24Also we have everything kind of wired in, so let's take a look here, literally every
03:29spot.
03:30This is probably the most exciting part of the van, this is what excites me the most.
03:35We have these little USB guys in every single outlet available, so anytime you want to charge
03:40an iPhone, anything with USB, right there.
03:45It's very nerdy, but very luxurious in a nerdy way.
03:49Really gets me excited about the van.
03:51Yeah, let's check out the last little section here.
03:55This is the VIP lounge, it's pretty cool, got some blankets, you know, little Star Wars
04:02X-Wing set, in case we get bored, we can play a little game.
04:08Yeah, usually we sleep two or three at a time here at most, otherwise it gets a little close,
04:14close quarters, which can get a little, you know, difficult.
04:19But yeah man, I've logged a lot of hours sleeping back here, we're talking hundreds plus over
04:25this tour alone.
04:27Alright, so when we want to sit and just chill and be a little creepy, a little private,
04:32we have all these things for the windows right here.
04:35These are the VIP lounge covers, they go like so.
04:41I mean in the window of course, but when it's time to sit and have our private activities
04:46in the van, whatever they may be, these always come in handy.
04:50It's basically, it's our only way of staying sane on tour, you know.
04:54Alright, the trailer is right this way.
04:55Take a step inside, we have basically all of our luggage, we throw it right in here.
05:01Like when we're on the go, the luggage stacks up to about the ceiling, just happens, we
05:06have a lot of clothes, you know, whatever we gotta do.
05:08Toothbrushes take up a lot of space.
05:10You can check them off inside.
05:12Yeah, there's all the, like, VAC merch stock, very organized as you can see, we like to
05:17keep a very organized, a very clean merch setup.
05:22I mean, I'm sure you would agree, it's quite cleanly.
05:25We also have a little cubby hole for my piano on stage, kind of fits very nicely in here.
05:30But yeah, that's basically it.
05:32Take a look at those hazards.
05:34So many things to trip on and fall over.
05:36But yeah, that's the OXGOOT tour experience, I hope you guys enjoyed it, digital tour bus.
