• 4:04
  SPEAKER_08: What else we got?
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_08: And then we have another young Henry's, but this is the Newtowner, and Newtown is a small suburb in Sydney in like the inner west.

  SPEAKER_08: And it's really vibey, and that's where they have their brewery.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_10: So here we go.

  SPEAKER_03: Now it's Chris.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_10: That's an interesting.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_10: Oh, I'm not gonna like this one.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_10: Oh no.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_10: You're not a palal.

• 4:26
  SPEAKER_10: I can already smell it.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_08: Well, yeah, no.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_08: If you like dark beer, you should try Rushes.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_08: Reshes, they're they're it's um No, I'm hammered.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_08: Their um, their slogan is Rushes Refreshes.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_08: It's like that's like probably the most Aussie dark beer that we have.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_08: But I'm sure you can find like we have so much craft beer in Australia, so I'm sure that you could go on and beer hunting exercise.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_02: You do, it's popped off recently.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_08: But we're gonna do the burping challenge.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_08: We're gonna probably burp.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_02: Quad.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_10: Oh man.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_10: All right.
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_10: This is why I never drink before shows.
• 5:09
  unknown: Yeah.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_07: Oh, is that why?
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_10: Because you burp on tape, probably like beers, and so for some reason it drives me out.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_10: I can never like I never feel like and I too, it's the way a thing.
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_10: I I can I can forgive myself for having a bad show.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_10: Like, sometimes you just voice ain't there.
• 5:23
  SPEAKER_10: Like, sometimes it happens.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_10: We play a lot of shows, but if I was like, I don't know, if I was drunk and had a bad show, I'd be like, Well, that was my own doing.
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_10: So I just stay away from it.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_06: But how do you get hyped for that?
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_10: I drink for podcasts.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_07: That's fine.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_10: Go right in.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_07: Um, how do you get hyped for your shows?
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_07: Because like your stage presence is so high energy, like so much presence when you're on stage.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_07: How do you like get in the mindset?
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_07: Especially like at yeah, if you're not drinking.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_10: I don't have, you know, and you guys know me.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_10: I'm not like I'm not that guy off stage, you know.
• 6:00
  SPEAKER_10: I I I just like I just kind of spend most of my day conserving energy, I feel like, for the stage.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_10: I don't have like appreci- I'm like I'm kind of zoned in.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_10: I don't know if I'm a very fun to be around.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_07: Like before the show.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_10: Before show, because I'm just kind of zoned in um and focused on the show and thinking about the show and like um but I yeah, I I don't really have to hype myself up too much.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_10: I kind of like a little quiet space more than anything.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_10: I think.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_07: And then do you feel like when you go on stage, you're like, it's almost like a different kind of like it snaps into like Yeah, for sure.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_10: There's kind of a different mode, I think.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_10: I s and at this point I've played so many shows, it's just kind of there yeah, I I definitely snap into some kind of thing.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_10: There's nights too.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_10: There's plenty of nights where I'm like, I don't know if I got it tonight.
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_10: You know, I'm like, I'm tired or whatever it is or not feeling well.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_10: Um, but usually every time I get up on stage, and if you feed off the crowd, and you're like, okay, you know, and you think about I always try to think about what people had to go through to get to this show.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_10: And like it's a big thing for people to even buy a ticket and go to the show.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_10: There's so many other things people can do.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_10: People can sit at home and do whatever they want on watch Netflix Netflix all night.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_10: Like, you know what I'm saying?
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_10: Like, it takes a lot for somebody to buy a ticket and go to a show.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_10: And I try to realize that every night, you know, and people travel and it costs money, and you know, you're paying a lot of money for beers.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_10: And so, you know, it's kind of my job to to if they're gonna spend the money like that.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_10: I mean, it's uh even show up, even if it's a free show, it's like you know, try to give them the best show.
• 7:46
  SPEAKER_10: It's like my responsibility, I feel like.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_08: We were actually talking to a couple in the crowd last night, and they had um come down from Rockhampton, which is like in far north Queensland.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_08: Really?
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_08: It would be like 30 hours to drive.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_10: Whoa.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_08: Yeah, they flew down.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_10: That's a mess.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_10: See, that's amazing.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_08: Yeah, right.
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_10: That's amazing.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_10: You had to always cracks me up too.
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_10: I like people tell me, like, I drove five hours to be here, and I'm like, uh I flew, I flew like three days.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_03: Like me too.
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_10: And back in the day when we had the van, back in the day we had the van, you know, I was like, I drove 12 hours before.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_10: I was like, me too.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_10: Hey, met in the middle.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_10: Five, yeah, but it is impressive, you know, and it's cool.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_10: Uh, it's it's always heartwarming.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_10: But it's good to be reminded of that because it's easy to kind of get lost in your own world.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_07: Do you find when you're on stage, do you see people dancing and like jumping up and down in the crowd?
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_07: Because last night, like Grace and I go to a lot of concerts, and you had so many people in the crowd, like literally jumping up and down.
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_07: Like a lot of CB things, and it was such a fun atmosphere.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_07: Like, can you see that from the I do see the crowd?
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_10: I I am I like for some reason I have like eagle vision on stage.
• 8:57
  SPEAKER_10: I see everything that goes on.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_10: It's crazy.
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_10: Really?
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_10: But I'll see like little stuff that's happening or like people having a conversation.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_10: That's why it and it gets distracting sometimes.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_10: I forget words a lot, and I just won't.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_10: If I had like a prompter on stage, like a lot of people do, I would just be like reading it all the time.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, so I like you know, I'm like, whatever, I'll just forget words.
• 9:16
  SPEAKER_10: But like I'll get distracted, especially with like signs or people holding up their phones.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_10: Like, if I start reading that, then I'm just like lost on whatever, or I'll be somebody's doing something funny, or like, or I'm or I'm watching a situation of like maybe you know a little domestic or something.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, like a guy, like you can tell, like I'm trying to think of like, yeah, this guy like is trying to hit on this girl and it's not going well.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_10: That kind of stuff is is pretty cool.
• 9:43
  SPEAKER_10: I love the guys that show up and like you know, I I love the supportive boyfriend role, it's great at concerts because like you can tell the guy's like doesn't really care about the music, but his girl likes it.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_10: But there's also the other side of that where the guys like just like and if you like and if the girlfriend the girlfriend's having a great time, you know, it's like yeah, and then the guys are just like it's like come on, dude.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_10: Like, support your girl.
• 10:05
  SPEAKER_07: There were two guys next to us last night who were like happy, flopping up and down.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_07: It was just these two guy friends, and I'm like they wanted to start jumping.
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_07: They were like, they were so interested.
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_07: You could feel it in there, like they just wanted it.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_07: Oh, it was so good.
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_10: I love it.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_10: Nothing like going to a concert with the with the boys.
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_08: Yeah, it was so cute.
• 10:25
  SPEAKER_08: Yeah, we had like a wide range of fans.
• 10:27
  SPEAKER_08: I was like young girls, that was older girls that were it is cool.
• 10:31
  SPEAKER_10: I I think that's cool.
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_10: Like a lot of the shows, and I kind of like pride myself on that on having like a multi-generational fan base because it's fun, because it's like it's a fun show for anybody to come to.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_10: Like, I I find like there's three generations that come.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_10: You know, there's the older ladies who want to see the Elvis.
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_08: They love you, they want to see the Elvis moves.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_08: Let's pause, let's pause on that because we we've we've done um we put out a little bit of content with you, Drake, in the last few months, and we had a lot of the older ladies, and they are obsessed with you.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_08: They love you.
• 11:10
  SPEAKER_08: That's good.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_10: That's good.
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_10: I mean, it you know, hey, they got money to buy merch, they support the cause.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_10: They keep us on the road, they keep the lights on.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_02: They're unhuman.
• 11:19
  SPEAKER_10: They keep they keep they keep diesel in the bus, I can tell you that.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_07: Do you think it is like the Elvis kind of esque like performance that like brings them to your shows?
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, there's a lot of that, which is you know, not a terrible thing.
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_10: You know, there's Elvis fans all over the world.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_10: And I've been able to kind of like I feel like bring that to my because it is part of my influence, of course.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_10: Like I studied Elvis for years and years and years, and so it's part of just like anybody, you know, would you know back in the day it's like Merle Haggard wants to sing like Lefty Frizel, and Alan Jackson wanted to be just like Hank Williams Sr.
• 11:59
  SPEAKER_10: You know, it's like like like anybody would do, it's like Elvis is one of my heroes.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_10: So uh it's just part of my influence, but it's great, you know, people and it's been a common ground for people all over the world.
• 12:10
  SPEAKER_10: Everybody loves Elvis, you know, so it's it's a it's a common ground I found all the world, and I think it's helped.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_10: And it and it, you know, it lets people it lets me kind of pay tribute in my own way without without putting on a jumpsuit, you know, which is good.
• 12:25
  SPEAKER_07: Have you ever dressed up as Elvis?
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, that was my gig when I was a kid.

  SPEAKER_10: She'd buy like white suede shoes that you can only find on my side, and then she'd dye them blue, so I had blue suede shoes.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_10: It's good.

• 13:12
  SPEAKER_07: Did you always like performing when you were younger?
• 13:14
