And just, you know, that's, it's, uh, golly, that's probably the, the, the most appropriate story I could tell from back in those days.

It was just,

It was so – none of us knew what we were doing back then.

And it was just so wild and free.

And, like, even before we were on that bus, our first tour bus, like, you know, we were just in a van, and then we got a Sprinter van a few years later.

And it just – we had no responsibilities.

You know, we plugged our own guitars in.

You know, I had, like, a little DeWalt tool bag with, like, a tuner and a cable.

Yeah.

and like a DI, I think in it.

And like, that's what I would, you know, like take out of the van and we'd set our stuff up and like, we were doing that, but we were selling these bars out.

Like we were selling like two, three, four, 5,000 person bars out a night.

Wow.

And, uh, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana.

Like it was just, it was so, so, so fun.

Yeah, we do too.

I don't think I'd want to go back to them, but I do.

I just think about them all the time and how different it looks nowadays.

But I enjoy feeling really good all the time on the road.

I never felt good back then on the road.
