• 0:41
  slightly sticky. So how's the tour been this time around? It's always amazing.
• 0:50
  We love playing in Australia. The last time we did Give Things Festival
• 0:53
  that it was the last Shaws were played before the plague extra yeah, and
• 1:00
  when we were doing it without it out, so it's one of the first
• 1:06
  places we did up. That was only a year ago. How you didn't
• 1:11
  get that? And yeah, just another great times. So thats we're playing
• 1:15
  really early, so we just get up, we don't hang on. Yeah,
• 1:21
  that's amazing. And they changed to sort of set up this year with
• 1:23
  good things and there was a this yue last night. It was last year
• 1:27
  with like getting people in through early like this year was distract I don't think
• 1:34
  matter what part we're on, because yeah, certainly we are at first on
• 1:37
  our stay jumpers note was very very cool straight to that was a hegro so
• 1:45
  the last week seeing you guys when he was twenty ten outway so I high
• 1:49
  school, had lost my ship. So how's Australia training this time? Other
• 1:55
  than a hit? How are you? How are you finding? It's just
• 1:59
  a bit of a blur to be honest, you know, it's like roll
• 2:01
  up and play. It's the next place, role up play. It's but
• 2:06
  yeah, the shows have been great. What could other than play shows and
• 2:09
  fly? I feel like they've done anything yet? Oh yeah something because yes,
• 2:15
  yes, cut, today's our first day being able to actually hang out.
• 2:25
  Yes yeah we're not flying side tomorrow. Yeah, you're going to see
• 2:31
  a load of burns And that's a good song. What is it like being
• 2:36
  up there, going across the world and having something to you in this year?
• 2:40
  Watching the videos and the crowd mental must have been the most crazy.
• 2:45
  It's pretty awesome. Yeah, it's pretty Oh yeah, I was like,
• 2:52
  what's the right word like, crowd of the audience today like to be you
• 2:54
  know, because they were in the sun, they had the full front of
• 2:58
  it. We were protected by this age, and you know, to be
• 3:01
  just standing there in that heat and watching us looking into the sun basically at
• 3:07
  the stage, that's tough to let alone later than yeah, dancing and not
• 3:12
  having a good time the kiss for the whole world. It seems that this
• 3:17
  is a fair's opinion. Also, it's like something we just require after all
• 3:24
  the bullshit. Definitely, while I get off this album, is that about
• 3:29
  right? It's just like a bit more fun and more loudly required. That's
• 3:34
  kind Yeah, I guess that's kind of how we felt for Yeah cool.
• 3:40
  So it's good you say that. Yeah, we wanted to. Yeah,
• 3:46
  definitely does. It was really funny to be positive and we were just so
• 3:49
  happy that came out in the music. Certainly, certainly does, I should
• 3:59
  say past tense at all. So something you mentioned around on stage was arguing
• 4:03
  with the thermometers. I've been offending you guys for a very long time.
• 4:08
  Yeah, I mean it's words when it comes to political and world issues and
• 4:11
  what we're doing, what they're doing to this planet. The frustration. I
• 4:17
  actually thought the other day when listening, going wow, it's I think if
• 4:21
  anything's got worse. So I certainly again delivering that that Pepper on stage in
• 4:29
  the life sense of just that feel frustration about the whole of things. How
• 4:33
  does that feel all these years later for you guys? Yeah, I'm a
• 4:38
  bit I would say I'm shot. I've been shocked anymore the inuction because I
• 4:42
  think the enuction is so its classic. This system, this classic happens,
• 4:48
  isn't going to profit before the planets of people. It's all about exploitation in
• 4:54
  his short term profit. So the long term view is just completely so mind
• 5:01
  So it's not surprising, but it's immensely frustrating. Yeah, you know,
• 5:09
  to the point of just disbelief, because it's you know, it's it's quite
• 5:13
  clear that at the moment in the trajectory we're on is we got fucked.
• 5:17
  Yeah. Yeah, the Australia as well. And I really feel quite powerful
• 5:24
  about it. I know what they want. Yeah, it's just so our
• 5:30
  Prime minister went on holidays during those far jetted out. That's what he does
• 5:36
  and what the new one does, and the new one was meant to fix
• 5:40
  everything, and people actually believing that that would happen. Is it's beautiful,
• 5:46
  but they're so restrained by the system itself. It needs to be imaginative vocable
• 5:58
  as absolutely, yeah, what do we do? We continue to have as
• 6:06
  much fun as we physically and better we can and it's really cool, butter
• 6:15
  so long to see. If anything, your energy level seems to have gotten
• 6:19
  more opinions, especially on a day like today. I was there are points
• 6:27
  on stage where I was just like, you know, when it starts to
• 6:29
  a bit of black because you're so out of breath and just where am idea?
• 6:34
  Because I'm really I'm still like really checked as well. Yeah, but
• 6:38
  yeah, so it's tough. Yeah, yeah, we give it the end
• 6:41
  of potassium, so half that's true when war comparisive the interview, how would
• 6:51
  you describe on Australia in three words? Words? I guess. But the
• 7:03
  first things we said is that, like it's been really tough, like for
• 7:05
  the organizers, all the storm last night, all the delayed council flights,
• 7:11
  so to keep this thing running, it's been amazing. I know, there's
• 7:15
  probably been a lot of stick, the sights and hard work on into it.
• 7:17
  So you mean, yeah, I think Everyonny appreciates that. Yeah.
• 7:23
  Other than that, you know, I don't I can't even speak for it
• 7:26
