I'm Jack this is we are Dead Poets
Society and these are tour tips my tip
would be for the long drives you need to
have something to do whether it's
Nintendo switch or if you can be work on
your computer movies probably won't do
it in terms of killing time you really
need something that takes your mind off
of it's absolutely essential you can't
get in the car without having something
like that my tip would be to watch your
health in two main instances is not
drinking every night because people are
gonna want to get you drinks because
you're just playing to random strangers
who just want to get you drunk because
you just entertain them it's a weird
exchange that happens but it does and
try to exercise I get a planet fitness
like $20 black card or is it black card
yeah yeah that's so you can share with
someone so two members of the band can
go so maybe just one other person you
just get one so all four can go work out
because it's just the gas station food
and the drinks and just the lack of
sleep you're gonna need to sweat and
just like relieve some tension you're
gonna die I think my tip is a little bit
more directed toward singers but sleep
is by far I mean like hydration is
important of course and like warming up
before the show but like above
everything by miles is sleep sleep
whenever you can because I mean this is
the first show of the tour so we're
pretty all you know well-rested and
everything but when you start having to
get up it you know going to bed at 3 I'm
getting up at 7 a.m. to make it to the
next show if you don't sleep enough your
voice is going to be especially
if you sing like a lot hind like
that so yeah don't wear black and use
white deodorant that is a it's not
necessarily a touring tip it's just like
a life to try to try to laugh as much as
you can constantly be joking that's I
mean if you're with your best friends
let's prep
but it's important not to take anything
seriously really at all like you need to
really be relaxed 100% of the time
because it's very easy to get
overwhelmed by something a load in time
or if you're late for sound check if
there's a lot of traffic things are it's
gonna be nonstop obstacles so you really
have to train yourself to just go with
the flow no matter what things take a
long time a lot of patience and there's
it's pretty much 99% down time so you
really need to train yourself to adjust
to that yeah it's like your roommates in
a room that you can't leave for 12 hours
at a time so you're gonna have to thick
skin and feel fake joke yeah exactly
yeah
really important
