Transcript
- 0:00Ever, we are so excited because we're in Benson Bone's dressing room. Hey,
- 0:03Benson, who, how we doing? You're so nice. He came
- 0:07over and greeted us with hugs like just super till you know, I think
- 0:11I do think I'm a big hugger. Yeah, that's good. It's because
- 0:14you had four sisters. Maybe that's true that maybe that plays into it.
- 0:18Yeah, Okay, what do you think you've learned from your sisters other than
- 0:22did they ever kick your black growing up? But you know, did you
- 0:24learn anything from them? They kicked my butt grown up for sure. I
- 0:27really think like the main thing is my like emotional awareness, and honestly,
- 0:35it's more in myself than other people. Like I think naturally I am able
- 0:40to like sort of read how people are doing and how comfortable people are.
- 0:45And I'm very glad that I have that because it helps with what I do.
- 0:48But also I think they've definitely taught me a lot more about myself and
- 0:52how I feel and you know, how to just kind of vocalize my thoughts,
- 0:56feelings, et cetera. Yeah, So they're really great though, is
- 1:00really great quality. By the way, more with Benson Boone coming up next,
- 1:03We talked to him backstage at the Ritz yesterday, and being emotionally aware
- 1:07probably the reason why he's such a good songwriter and a hot quality and a
- 1:11guy. Just so you fellas you should know that. Here's Benson Boone's song
- 1:14from last year, ghost Town More with him coming up Erica. We're talking
- 1:18to Benson Boone in his dressing room about his move to La. Yeah,
- 1:21first, like time on your own, Like you gotta take care of her
- 1:23yard now, I just moved to La a couple months ago. You don't
- 1:26have gress, Yeah, exactly, you're not home exactly. I don't have
- 1:32much of a yard, but I have like it's probably like a fifteen foot
- 1:36by ten foot like big. I don't know, like place for plants where
- 1:41they're not concrete around it. But then there's you know, dirt and soil
- 1:44and whatnot. So I just planted some flowers and obviously have no idea how
- 1:49they're doing right now. They're probably dead. But before tour, I took
- 1:53some time to do that. How are you dealing with your fairly new fame?
- 1:56Like beautiful things blew up really quickly. I still really can't even believe
- 2:01how that song is doing. Still but it's incredible. I'm just like,
- 2:07touring is what I care most about. I want to tour long term and
- 2:10so it means the world to me. And you're by the way, do
- 2:14you like the fact that there's people that's been standing outside for hours just to
- 2:16see you? How does that make you feel? They've been standing out there
- 2:20since like six am. Really, I didn't realize they're there that long.
- 2:23That's amazing. Yeah, it's unbelievable. And this is my first time in
- 2:27North Carolina. Welcome to the crew. You gotta get bow Jangles. Yeah,
- 2:30I've never been here, but it's beautiful. There's like there's a trail
- 2:35right next to the venue and I just took the blades out and I haven't
- 2:38seen much of it really, just kind of within a mile radius. Saw
