13. VIP Info for One Simple Tour & Baptism Music Video Review

0:00 Hello and welcome to the Lovejoy Nation podcast. On today's episode, we'll be discussing the first gig of the One Simple tour that took place in Boston last night as of this broadcast. As of this recording, October 18th at Big Night Live and it was the first time ever that Lovejoy had AVIP package. We all we'll be discussing how that worked for everyone with all the questions we had. In addition, we will be discussing the music video for baptism, our sort of analysis and review of that. And to start things off, Dave has a brief news piece for us.

0:44 Yes, thanks. Hello, in a recent Reddit post there was a question asked. Will there be ACD version of the new One Simple Trick album? Ash replied. We have plans to release some more physical copies of the album in different formats in the near future. So there you go folks. We will be getting more albums. Nice. Now do we think that means CD cassette, or do we think they'll actually be pressing more albums? What are your thoughts? I think yes to everything. I think more albums, CD, possibly cassettes. I might.

1:25 Think they'll be extended versions or the same as the original? I always thought, OK, it's a limited run of this, are they going to drop the album again how it was supposed to be with Wasted Summer and still don't? Think so I I don't. Know summer might be on that scrapped sort of thing, Wilber alluded to on a Reddit post. An album of, like, all kinds of things that haven't been published before. That's my opinion because I feel like this is their baby. This is the package they wanted to put together the album and to put Wasted Summer on it now doesn't. Make sense? And plus they actually talked about wasted summer being on a single OR. I don't remember.

2:07 I guess we'll just have to wait and see. What are they going to release the single and then re release the album with that single on it? That's my theory. Yeah, I. Again, I guess we just have to wait and see. We. Just have to wait and see, yeah? We're we're good at waiting. OK, on to the VIP experience. Yes, sounds good to me. So yes, we were all excited when we heard that this one simple tour would include VIP packages. But then that, of course, that opened a whole slew of questions that we have. So we want to record this episode right away in an effort to answer a lot of those questions for people that are just thinking about day and night like Angie and I are. So this has been very helpful.

2:58 We had a friend of mine fall in courts on Instagram. That's her handle. Attended the show last night and she was gracious enough to provide lots of answers as I pestered her all night long on her phone while she's trying to enjoy the show. Now she before and after the show we spoke. So let's just start off. I think we should we should preface this by saying that things may change. Each venue may have their own specific times or schedules. So this part that we're talking about here is what happened last night, October 18th in Boston. So please check your particular e-mail for your particular venue to make sure that you have your times correct.

3:40 So this is just Boston that we're talking about. Things could change so. One point, yeah, experiences may vary, and I'm sure things will change as the tour goes along and they work out. Different things. Think this particular one is exactly the same for Toronto. I believe somebody's put that on so. But yeah, but it's exactly what you folks said. This is just purely going to depend on the venue. Our first question, did you receive communication such as e-mail with the details of the VIP experience prior to the show date? What did the e-mail say? OK so my friend let me know and actually shared screenshots of her e-mail that she received. Let's see Thursday afternoon.

4:29 So a couple days before the show, she received an e-mail with all the details of what the package included as well as what time to check in. It said arrive at 5:30 to check in at the venue. Says that if you arrive late, the early entry and VIP experience will not be available and it stated where to line up. It said second floor entrance of Big Night Live. A day or two later she received an follow up e-mail that said I would like to inform you that the timeline for tomorrow's VIP experience has been adjusted. Check in will now begin at 5 and the meet and greet will start promptly at 5:30 PM. So I guess they gave time for lining up and getting everyone situated and then going into the to the meet and greet itself. Which is probably a good idea.

5:17 OK, Yeah. So that's that's loosely 2 hours before doors open. Believe so. Then again as well keep saying maybe it'll vary. I'm sure it'll vary by venue and as they work out kings to see what works best for them. Absolutely. What time did you arrive at the venue? Where are the VIP attendees? Already there. She arrived around 2:00 PM and she says there were a few VIPs already there. Less than 5 I believe. Yeah, I think she was fifth in line, is what she said. OK, cool. I asked her when they were actually let into the VIP experience with regard to when they were supposed to check in. And it looks like around 5:10 they started to move to go in. So that's pretty good, I think.

6:16 Yeah, I'm guessing maybe everyone showed up on time and there was no nothing that delayed them, which is good. Nice. Absolutely. Can you describe how the VIP experience was set up? Were the band members all together for meet and greet or were they spread out separately? Were people allowed to get autographs? Give gifts? How were the pictures taken? Was the band shaking hands? Giving hugs? Approximately how much time did you get with the band? A lot of good stuff there, so they actually had them. The meet and greet happen in front of the stage, the center of the stage, on the floor. The whole band was all together. You were allowed to bring gifts, folks were allowed to bring things to have signed.

7:02 There was no contact as of course these guys need to worry about their health to last them through all these shows. Oftentimes they have night after night after night of shows and this is just a start. So especially I could imagine strictly no hugs are touching for health concerns. You had about two or three minutes with the band, which is nice, and Elodie was taking the photos for you, so more power to LED for for that. I'm sure there's a lot of Purell going around, but it sounded like a great opportunity. Just like the right amount of time, you know? Don't want, you say it sounds like to me. Have a good chat, say hello. Yeah, what can't that girl do? She does everything. Work every phone under the sun.

7:46 And I think Busta was on hand to make sure people didn't go over there a lot of time to keep the process moving along. They do absolutely schedule, yeah. Yeah, that's. Yeah. Makes sense they they've got X amount of time to fit X amount of people in. Don't expect to sit there for 15 minutes gassing. No, they need someone to keep everything on time, and rather than having the band try to enforce that, you know what, he's a perfect guy for it, so yeah, it. Makes that combustor for nothing. Right you go over the time you bust your butt. Yep, big big question. Were you able to buy merch during the VIP experience?

8:28 Yes, you were able to buy merch early during the VIP event, which is so nice because we all know how long those merch lines can get. And sometimes you don't always want to go before the show because you want to get your spot and stay there. And if you wait till after the show, it's crazy and sometimes things are sold out. So I think that is an amazing part. Solutely. We all like that. I was thinking though, how we carry all this merch. But anyway, we'll get into the actual merch. Right. Well, the merch included a tote bag. There's your answer. You have to buy a tote bag. I guess that makes sense. Yeah, it's. Yeah, or a couple.

9:10 Yeah, absolutely. So the match consisted of hoodie, couple of T-shirts, tight bag, pin badges. Yeah, there's enamel pins, there's the ghost from the new profile picture on Spotify and other places they've been using it, and the the finger gun that Wilbur does behind his back in pan display. Very calm. I'm going to need AM. I I'm not missing anything else, am I? There's two T-shirts, a Gray T-shirt, a black T-shirt and a. Black hoodie. Yeah, it looks. Like one of these? One of the T-shirts was like the obligatory tour date T-shirt and I couldn't zoom in on the picture well enough to see what the other one was, but it looked like it might have had the pay and display artwork on it and I couldn't tell what was written underneath it, but it was cool. I'm going to need them both.

9:55 And it was nice to have a not black shirt too. Yes, as an. Option. Love that. That's it. I showed my daughter this morning. She went. You're going to buy the grey one, aren't you? I went. Yeah, because it's not a black. Right. You know. It's nice to have. Grey over blacks. And the free merchandise item that VIP participants received, Actually, I guess there is 2. Yeah, you received a Lovejoy scarf, which looks pretty cool. It looks so cool. It wasn't what I was expecting to be quite honest with you. I don't know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting a scarf.

10:35 And you also had an OST signed poster, so obviously they're already pre signed, which I thought, which I thought was quite smart. I'm sure they sat sat in a room and just passed them off to each other. Sign sign Sign, sign sign. The scarf that was a nicer piece of merch than I honestly thought that we would get for a free VIP merch item. Usually with these sort of things, it's like a key chain or one time we got a little cooler lunch koozie bag, which is cool and we use it a lot, but an actual scarf and it looks nice. Like I think it's great. It's really cool. It has.

11:16 The Enjoy logo. The new look for the wording. Black background, white wording. I think it's cool to like, especially me that I love to wear. I'm sure all of us love to wear Lovejoy merch out in public all the time whenever you can. So to have the word Lovejoy, like, boom, like across your chest as you're wearing your winter coat, I'm so excited for that. And plus, we're doing the future shows when it gets chilly. Yeah, I've. Never thought about that, those November shows. Thanks, I'm expecting to see one hung up behind you in the coming weeks. In the coming soon, I think I'll have a.

11:57 Spare Absolutely. I thought it was funny too, because Dave with his. I love Rob's scarf, you know? I know. Yeah, that's right. I forgot to put it up today, but yeah. It's like you're on to. Something you're a trendsetter, Dave. We also asked about Anvil cards. We were wondering what the outer pack of the anvil cards look like. And of course, we also wanted to know what the Anvil cards themselves look like, and how many there were in a pack. Well, sadly at this time, at the time of recording there were no Anvil cards available to give out. So I heard from my friend that there was an iPad set up where you entered your name and address and they were planning to mail you the cards once they're available. There is an issue with the printer, so there's a delay and hopefully they'll get them shipped out to America whilst they're on tour and so they won't have to do this for every show because I'm sure that's a pain in the neck for them to do. But yeah, so we still have to wait a bit longer. Again, we're used to that in this fandom, to see what these cards look like and how many and all of them. I can just see them in a couple of weeks time on their day off sat there licking envelopes.

13:05 I bet I'm sure of it, but Will shouldn't because if he cuts his tongue, that's not a good thing. Joe now too, because he sings so. Yeah, can't have that. They both have to be. Careful, they'll throw Ash and Mark in the back rooms and have them do it. Yeah, They don't really have to say anything, no. Ash should do all the licking. Oh no. What the hell? All right, OK, we're together. Team OK. After finishing the meet and greet, were you instructed to go back outside or wait? Or basically what happened after that?

13:47 It sounds like they were ushered off to the side of the stage because the meet and greet was actually happening in front of the stage. So they were just told to wait kind of off to the side to let the VIP experience finish so they did not have to go back outside, which is nice. But then once the VIP experience finished, then it was kind of a free for all to claim your spot, right? Which has us a barricade nerds like a little bit worried about how that goes because we feel like a lot of you, we think about every single detail of how exactly this is going to work and what's it going to look like. And so we need to plan our move. And of course, every night is going to be different. So it'll be interesting to hear how it works going forward. Different shows, this part of it. VIP experience ending and the moving to your spot afterwards. Dave doesn't seem too concerned.

14:41 No, he doesn't. Just go wherever he goes. And he's chill. The best of it. Think I I'm not ashamed to say that it's probably an illness. It's I have some sort of illness. You know what? I think I had a nightmare about this last night. I'm not even kidding. I just remembered. I was dreaming about all of this all night and it kept waking me up. Yeah, real. Oh my God. You know what I bring? I bring a real little point and shoot that I researched to get the best one for concert photography. It's, I mean, it's not just for being up close. It's also I love taking pictures during the concert and trying to get cool shots to share with all of you. So there's method to my madness as well. You do take really good.

15:22 Interest, thank you. It is good to get different viewpoints though, so over the course of the three shows different angles and distances. And I'm five feet, one inch. So yeah, I I can't see over anybody. Vertically challenged, as my father would say. Lastly, I did make sure to ask how many people it seems like we're in the VIP part of this VIP experience, how many participants, how many VIPs? And the guesstimate was 60. OK, so that's not bad. All right? Yeah, That's like not bad for a good turn out and not bad for having to slog through all those people each having their turn in a timely manner. So that's cool.

16:09 Nice sounds. Like, curious what the numbers will be again at the other venues now that I think we've covered most of your questions about how VIP works or at least how it worked at the first show. Well, let's let's just talk about the gig itself, guys. How amazing just seeing the pictures and videos come in and people's talking about their experience on all the social media. I just wanted to start off by saying hope you don't mind me saying this baptism when Wilbur comes out and he's not playing the guitar. And I think someone said he picks it up eventually in the song perhaps. But the fact that for that song and maybe some other songs, he didn't have the guitar in his hands and he was more freely able to move about the stage and dance and sing instead of having to also play the guitar at the same time, That's brand new.

17:02 Never saw that before. And that's exciting and freeing, I would imagine, for him. It's fantastic, I love it. Just thinking back to when they did that Arctic Monkeys cover with Good Kid on stage and Will didn't have a guitar, all the jumping around he was doing, it was so great. And I loved seeing that last night and Oh my gosh, the set list, you guys, I thought there was no way they were going to play every song from the new album. I was like. There is 0. Chance they played every song and they kept like the real like bangers in there. That set list is perfection.

17:42 Perfect. It's so well crafted. I'm going to see in monochrome Live is going to like permanently change me. Oh my God, we're going to be crying, staring like a bunch of fools. I'm going to like Calculi. I'll bring the tissue box. We'll share it. OK, you know, going back to my gig, but I just sat there trying to wrap my brains and I really, honestly cannot remember whether we had a guitar for Baptism or not. I think it was the fact that they came on and this whole new song was playing and it was like. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. I've just been sat there while she's talking and I really, really cannot think.

18:23 But to hear you will kind of love these. Hearing them live is different and watching some of the video clips you already know all the lyrics to all the songs, whereas we all stood there and it's like baptism. Oh my God. So I had a totally different experience for baptism, but when they toured the UK, it's going to be a no different experience again. Monochrome is fantastic. Every, you know, really wanted to give details in the last part for for that it's all freaking fantastic. Everybody is going to love.

19:04 It my gosh. A week. And. A day. A week and a day, Leslie. And they played Death Box, which wasn't played at the London gig. That's right, I. Gutted. I don't know why. Yeah, that's strange. But maybe they wanted to save it for you Americans. They love US1 last. Little surprise, do you know? I think so. Now. That was really the first time playing the whole entire album live ever. Sorry, Dave, Sorry. You'll have your time in the sun next year, I'm sure. They did a fabulous job of keeping the right songs in there too.

19:44 I know. Like there's always songs that you're going to miss. I mean, obviously, you know, Sex Cells and SCUM, yeah, they're always gross. Yeah, I know Scum is so good life. But man, they did a good job of keeping it and I think just the right songs. And it's how they blended it. And yes, arranged it is perfect. It's beautiful. It is a thing of beauty. Normal people. Things go so well with this album. And concrete like us, it's just one after the other after the other. No wonder they say Wilbur is like so wetting to death by the end because it's just in the audience. I'm sure. All that jumping around and dancing and screaming, yelling like it's just going to be insane.

20:25 I didn't have a chance to compare last night's setlist to a previous setlist. I'm wondering about the length. It seemed like there might have been. Last night's setlist might have been a little bit longer than their normal setlist. I heard it was about an hour and a half show. Perfect. Yeah, perfect. I have been. I have been hoping and praying. I'm like, OK, you guys got a whole whole problem. Now you keep. Yeah, something like that. You've got a whole. That's what you've been doing for the last year and a half, to be fair. Right, I know we never I'm. Wishing and hoping. It never ends. I mean, that's. Starts us off Dave just now that's what you. Do as a love enjoyer, right?

21:09 My gosh, I'm so happy about that. The Baptism music video, another brilliant work of art by Noisy Yak. And now we think this is the official third part of the trilogy. We had heard they were working on for Lovejoy, perhaps because this is the third out of the four videos that's produced by Noisiak. That's correct, yes, Yeah. That is correct. How do we all like it? The noisy acts knocked it out of the park, as usual. It's fantastic. I no surprise there. Yeah, no, no surprise. And I love, I love the messages that you can take out of it. There's so much to dissect here, especially just like, I mean, take the album name one simple trick. I mean, look at the videos that Mark and Ash are, you know, selling.

22:07 It's pretty much a quick fix, right? One simple trick. They're general salvation, right? VHS tapes that are going to save your life. Yeah, watch these videos be saved for for a one time donation of blah blah blah. They make it look so easy and like that's what society is all about these days, right? I mean, everybody wants a quick fix. Nobody wants to actually, you know, diet or exercise or, you know, work out anything, which I mean, I get it. I'm, I'm guilty of those things too. But we're all looking for that quick fix. And I feel like that's one of the themes running throughout this video. Absolutely, I love this suit. I mean I obviously made the little Lego figure of of him but love the retroness of this the field. To me, it felt like it was recorded on film. Yeah.

22:54 With an old camera, obviously it's done behind the scenes and all that lot, but it had that look about it and I loved that. I thought it was Absolutely Fabulous. The makeup, the costume, Wilbur just soaked that character of the rings, all the details. And that look. That look was amazing, wasn't it? Scary as but that look brilliant. How they whether that was deliberate or whether that was not deliberate as such, whether that was like an accidental look and they've thought, Oh my God, leave that in, who knows?

23:36 Brilliant. Props to whoever dug that Jimmy Baker velvet blue suit and pink tie out of the closet. Oh my God, love it and. I was thinking about yeah, Jimmy and Tammy Faye Baker Jim and Tammy Faye Baker of our famous American evangelist from the Let me think in the 70s they were just characters and Jimmy Swaggart, you get all Google this or as my dad would say, look it up in your funk and Wagnalls. I was actually doing a little bit of wiki research on these guys, Jim and Tammy Faye Baker today, and The funny thing I discovered was in the 1960s, they hosted A puppet show series.

24:25 So remember the line in the song? And you could say it? Well, yeah, the Common Touch music video had the puppets with the puppets of eyeballs on their hands. Yeah, those silly little. And there's also the SHIT puppet show. Everything. Everything's a circus or a ship puppet show A. Circus or Yeah. And then they also had, oh, Jimmy Swaggart, who also has that look like Wilbur does in this music video. He had a Christian theme park that closed down. So that reminded me when they said circuits. That's right, I forgot about that. Oh my gosh. So that, like, I feel like all these, like, references are sort of incorporated in the song and in the music video. It's so well thought out and it's so perfect. And, you know, I remember Yousef bringing up the people going into the darkness or coming out of the darkness with pay and display when they're going in and out of the elevator. It's like the same thing happens in this music video, right? The people come out of the black, out of the dark to Pastor Gold seeking salvation.

25:33 And I thought, yeah, there you go, there's some of that imagery again. So they all really seem to connect, tied together. Regardless if it's a trilogy, credulogy, whatever you want to call it, they all seem to be from the same universe so to speak. I wonder how many Jim and Tammy Faye and Jimmy Swaggart videos they watched to to prep for this video. It's a wow, that's something to think about. And should we get into the song itself and some of the lyricism? Because I feel like there's things that tie into this character in the music video. But I feel like, and I don't know if this is always just something maybe me and Angie do where we tie this to real world, real life scenarios in Will's life that maybe inspired writing the lyrics to the song.

26:25 Did anyone else feel that way? Because I have my own sort of interpretation of that or what I think it's perhaps maybe inspired even all this, this whole entire theme. Carried throughout I know you've got album got a theory on on this, so I'll I'll let you run with that for me, and I totally agree with yours too. But it almost feels like something that everybody can relate to. It seems like the video and the song is all about like this huge internal conflict, like we all feel pressure to conform to, you know, societal standards or what we think we should be this perfect image or whatever. You see him, He looks in the he looks in the mirror. I see my reflection and I don't see myself at first he's looking in the mirror.

27:12 You could tell he likes what he sees, right? You know, he's adjusting his wig and giving himself little, you know, little looks. But then as it gets further and further through the video, he's looking at himself in the mirror and he's making these weird faces and he's looking distressed. And, you know, towards the end, obviously, his health is starting to become an issue, which some might say that heart attack at the end is maybe divine intervention or the ultimate payback. But I think it says a lot about society in general and how we feel that we have to present ourselves and more or less a general comment on people who will exploit other people for greed and money and fame. I think there's a lot of that in there. Yeah.

27:56 What you got, Leslie? I couldn't help but think about just over this last year and a half of running these accounts and seeing so many young fans say that Wilbur saved them, that if it weren't for him or his music or his streams, that who knows where they would be now. And I have to imagine that feels like a lot of pressure. Or a lot of like. It feels kind of like it's like, how would you take that? Right? Like that wasn't his intention, but he I'm sure he hears that a lot or reads that a lot. And yeah, it's do you live living up to the expectations of your followers? And I think that's sort of seen in this music video. But then that facade starts to crack. But I also think about, you know, that the break that the band had, and Wilbur has said himself that there was a period of time where he was, in a word, to try to work on his mental health.

28:52 When he says getting out of the hospital, staying insane, see my reflection, don't see myself, see someone else. He was a little lost for a bit. You know, he wasn't feeling like himself. And glad to see that he's back. And it almost seems to be no better than ever. But perhaps with the time when he wrote this or he's reflecting on a time, all right, afflicting a time when you felt like this is what inspired these lyrics, perhaps. So that was just sort of my getting psychological about it all. And yeah, that's what I got. And, you know, the promising health, wealth and happiness is sort of like that's what everybody seeks and people are wanting and like you said. And.

29:34 And so that this character is promising those things. And at the end of the day, that's what the what we're looking for. And oh, also when he says there's a line about you're saying I need this, can I disagree or something to that effect. I'm wondering if a time when he was feeling at his lowest. And it again, it might not be specific to Wilbur. It may just be humans in general. Often times when people are like in prison or something, they find God or find religion or they're just down. Now people will suggest, why don't you go to church? Maybe you need God in your life and that can help you.

30:15 And I wonder if there's somebody in in Wilbur's life that suggested got to church. You used to go when you were younger or it helped me. Maybe it can help you. And that could be part of this inspiration as well for the song in this album. Those are all super good observations. I really like I really like how you related it to him and these people, you know, that have said, you know, you saved me because he's only human, you know, and we. You saved me, but I actually I am not your savior. Right. Yeah, totally. And talking about the whole, you know, you always baptize a little too roughly. There's blood in the water. Whatever change is happening here throughout the character in this song, like, it's hard.

31:01 This is not change that feels good. It's rough. It's it's it's making them bleed. It hurts. Yeah. All right, so it isn't one simple trick. No, at the end of the day. Not at all. Dave, anything else to add or did you get us? No, what I was going to add was I don't need to do this because you 2 have the most wonderful. It is. I sit there and I'm thinking, yes, I can see that. Yes, I can see that. You know, I've just written down a bit bit about Joe, you know, very. Cataract eyes or blind eyes, I don't know. Demonize. Oh. Because I wondered whether he got possessed. That's what I'm thinking, yes, I think. You're right.

31:50 I was thinking he was like ill, but you're saying possessed. So it was almost like an exorcism was happening. There you go, Dave. You've got it, Dave. I think you're on to. Something. Who knows, I've been watching too much Paranormal TV lately so everything's possessed nice. But yeah, I mean the video. Absolutely loved it. I love how every single video just goes on to the next one. And honest to God, I want the noisy act boys to do the whole album. I wish. Oh gosh. Wouldn't you know what I mean? Include Elodie in that because I know she was part of the IDK and I also know she's part of Noisiak. And directed common touch.

32:41 Yeah, absolutely. But how good would it be to have the whole album, maybe honestly, on a DVD? Yeah, it's to me, it's like a rock opera, like Tommy, the whole story. Yeah, totally. I'd I'd absolutely love to see that and big up to the boys. Am I right in thinking that? Do you know what? I really couldn't find it. There was an article about them and it said at the very bottom about they're done with the three videos. Yeah, for now. Yes, yeah. Right. And we got very excited about the words for now. So we're we're going to read into those two words. Just so you know, guys, we're hanging on those two words.

33:23 We all are. We all are. There's no definites in Lovejoy, only hopes. For now, love that. So yeah, I I would absolutely love to see this whole story continued. Yes. Yeah, absolutely. And we just love Joe's screaming, singing in that and yeah, good. I was when I was re watching, you know, for homework this morning, I watched the baptism video like 5 times how they filmed it. So it looks like Joe's rising up. Oh, it really looks like he's rising up above Wilbur, and Wilbur's like reaching up to him. Like it's so effective. However, they did that with lighting and angles. It really works.

34:08 It's quite simple to do realistically. Just make someone levitate. Yeah, yeah, the chokehold. Up he goes. You're going to need to recreate that with Legos if it's so easy. Mr. What are them looking up, Joe looking up not? Just looking up, it looked like he was. Floating up. Yeah, it looks like. He's living, eating. Yeah, he's only doing a pull up, isn't he? And they just film his feet. All right, We're. Cutting this out because it's a little disparaging. OK. And then when Will looked at him, he's just stood on a milk crate. That's what I'm saying. It's so easy to record that.

34:48 Do some stop motion animation with your legos and and recreate that scene for me please. And I need a Lego that looks like Joe with those crazy eyes. Yeah, do you know what? We need the eyeballs. I know that's, I think there's a couple of Marvel ones, but I've got a feeling they're the different colour. I'll have to look at the zombie ones I've got. Yeah, one, I know I put the Lego figure out and a couple of people said, but but it's yellow needs to be darker. I just want to work in yellow because when I start getting into skin tones it's. All No. It's all different, so I just want to. Be yellow because. Yeah, yeah. Yellow. Oh my gosh. Man, people just never be satisfied. Well, on that note, I think we want to keep this a shorter episode, a more fun size, snack size episode if you will. By this time next week, I'll be in Chicago with Angie. I'm so.

35:48 Excited and ready for our show, our first show of the One Simple Tour. Can't. Wait, how simple is Chicago? Appreciate you can't wait, but I'm so glad there's a six hour time difference because I'm going to be in bed and you are going to be in the queue and I'm going to be asleep, so I'm not going to get. Beep, beep, beep. Every 5 seconds look at this. Look at this how? Do you not like wake up to have a Jimmy and look not look at your? Yeah, right. Don't worry, we'll be. We'll be messaging you anyway. We don't care. I know you will. And I shall look forward to reading it all in the morning. Well, on that note, thanks for listening today. Send us any more questions about gigs or things that you want to cover, and let's leave you with a couple of quick tips for concert etiquette for those whose first show this may be are.

36:45 You listening, Angie? Why are you saying that I have bad concert etiquette, Dave? Yeah. No, not at all. She's the she's our Mama that speaks out and scolds us if we just no. Yeah, we have what we have simple tricks for being a good love and joyer at a gig. Yeah, we should just call it that, right? I think that's. Perfect, so let's see. Don't throw things on the stage. Don't. Throw stuffed animals, bracelets or otherwise. Underpants. Yeah. Tomatoes keep your underpants on. Yes, that's a good tip. Let's see. Don't try not to push and shove, you know, be courteous. Obviously, if we're all jumping and bouncing around you, it's inevitable you're going to knock into someone. But, you know, give each other.

37:35 Give a smile like, Oh yeah, if you can. Screaming, yelling at the band members when they're speaking to the audience on stage. Is not. Enjoyable for those around you because we want to hear them speak. Absolutely. Yeah. You don't want to hear what they're saying. Not someone next to me going well, well, well. I love you. Or 667 anyway. None of that. That might be just an American thing. I don't know if we had this discussion. No, no, no, no, no no. It's all over this weekend. 06767 watching Strictly Come Dancing and they were giving out scores 6, Kevin 6-7. So we're all sat there going 6767. If you want to say that during your little private 2 minute meet and greet time to Wilbur, have at it. But anyway, I don't want to spend too much time on this. We've talked about etiquette before. I don't know if there's any other major things to address. Just being courteous.

38:41 That's all To your fellow your fellow audience members and enjoy and soak up every minute. And that's all I got. We will talk about our show next time. Yes, have fun. Thank you. You've all been to the gigs before, you all know you're going to have fun, but you're all now going to hear these new songs. Yeah, that's not so. Excited. I'm so excited. Freaking brilliant. Enjoy. And can't wait to see Angie and give her a hug in person. I. Know I'm so excited I can't wait one more thing one more thing quick if you are going to a show, make sure you drink lots of water throughout the day and eat a decent meal a couple hours before you go in when you're excited it's easy to forget to drink your water and eat so.

39:29 Do those things. Because you don't want to pass out inside because then you don't get to see the rest of the show and it's sad. So and. We've seen that happen. Yes, we have. Yeah, it's sad. So eat and drink. Thanks guys and have fun. Till next time, take care. Bye. Bye.
