Lost Society - PRESHOW RITUALS Ep. 426

you what's up I'm Sammy miracle and we're from lost society and I think actually for the both of us the the two things that we absolutely have to do before we get up on stage is well first of all these are like the most cliche things that you do but you know you put your hands together like this with the whole band and we yell it well the word varies from show to show but anyways it's something that's close to our hearts and you know we owe it out before the show and well after that we you know we do fist bumps with the band and obviously with our sound tech and the words that we always say our best gig ever this goes back to when we did our first Finnish tour before the first show actually it was also the first tour we had our sound tech with us and he just started saying best gig ever to us all the time and then we were like he was just like hey guys I got a tattoo time for us if you want we were like [ __ ] yeah so we got the best gig ever tattoos and you know for me obviously I got it here because every time I'm playing guitar I can see it and you know if I'm feeling down or anything on stage I'm like [ __ ] it dude it's the best gig ever exactly and I mean it's no [ __ ] because to about 200 shows after that I don't think we've ever had a bad gig in my opinion at least but I mean those are the rituals we do together but then for me I mean you know it's also you got to have a good stretch on I got to stretch out my arms stretch out my legs and I drink at least one bottle of water and half a bottle of Gatorade before I get up on stage then I drink the rest on stage how about you man I think I'm just literally like stretching my neck a little bit warming up with and there's this one thing actually the exodus drum tech Mike told me we're told us you know it's like this baseball kind of thing that you warm up with it just started like spinning your arms along a little bit so it gets like all this Plus loose so that really gets you into the game and if there was that there was that other warm-up thing that I actually can't do it was I think it was the the Apocalyptica guys who said that you know you try to you try to make a fist but as slowly as possible and it's so painful that I tried it once and now should I try to again and that that that's terrible but but it really warms you up but for me like actually feel bad when I say that I've actually haven't warmed up like on a guitar for years because I I just can't be bothered to honestly but the thing is that I want to keep my muscles in good order and for anyone who's actually seen lost Society on stage where we're not famous for it not or for you know staying still we love [ __ ] running around not that not that we're famous at all that but you know we like jumping around and running around so you really got to have your muscles and everything in good condition because if you're trying to do a a month-long tour and you don't stretch it's gonna end very soon you
