MusicTranscript
00:00Hi, I'm Eva from Charlie Bliss.
00:12Hello, I'm Sam from Charlie Bliss.
00:14And this is our beautiful van.
00:17How long has-
00:18Named Jolene.
00:19That's when we bought it, it was named Jolene and we don't really call it that but-
00:23I think we should start.
00:24I think we haven't been kind enough to her.
00:26Jolene.
00:27Jolene, by name.
00:28We love you Jolene.
00:29So right now we are on tour all across America, we are promoting our brand new album Forever.
00:34We are so thrilled to finally be touring this record, it feels so good.
00:38The van has only broken down once so far in this tour.
00:41So like it's been going on for what, like a week?
00:44So that's good.
00:45Totally.
00:46Good.
00:47It's like if one breakdown every like week and a half, I think that's actually will be
00:49totally great.
00:50Yeah.
00:51Do you want to come inside the van?
00:52Let's go inside.
00:53Let's see.
00:55Typically, it is myself or Dan doing the driving.
01:04As far as like co-pilot rules, co-pilot usually DJs and you kind of want to cater to the driver.
01:11You got to play something that's like the driver will like.
01:14A thousand percent.
01:15Well there's also our biggest rule is basically 30 minutes out of a venue, you have to do
01:22the blast radius.
01:23The blast radius is extremely important.
01:25It's basically when we've been in a van for a very long time and we're losing our minds
01:30to commemorate the fact that we are finally arriving at the venue.
01:34We play absolutely absurd, really loud, really ridiculous, strange, bizarro music that could
01:42make anyone descend into total madness for the 30 minutes until we reach the venue.
01:48It's a huge responsibility queuing up the blast radius.
01:52And I would say, in my opinion, the best person at queuing up a great blast radius
01:57is Spencer.
01:58Whoa.
01:59Yeah, I would agree with that.
02:00I would agree with that.
02:01Wow.
02:02Who's currently sitting in my spot in the van.
02:05I have sat in this seat maybe under 10 times in my life.
02:09I have never sat up here.
02:11I feel like I had a really great drive recently where I was playing like a lot of pop.
02:17I was playing, we listened to Chromatica by Lady Gaga.
02:20Yes.
02:22Sweetener by Ariana Grande.
02:24Big pop moment.
02:25It depends on the vibe.
02:26If it's like a three-hour drive, you want to keep the energy up.
02:30If it's like an eight-hour drive, you got to have an art.
02:32You got to have like-
02:33I really do.
02:34We listened to The National to like keep it chill, but then you want to ramp it back up.
02:39Little bit of everything.
02:40Okay, well, should we talk about the blast radius though?
02:42Yeah.
02:43Okay.
02:44Well, I'm trying to think.
02:45I think that the first song that started the blast radius was Tarzan Boy.
02:51Oh true.
02:52Tarzan Boy.
02:53By?
02:54Baltimore.
02:55Baltimore.
02:56By Baltimore, which is an absolute-
02:57Oh.
02:58Oh.
02:59Oh.
03:00Oh.
03:01Oh.
03:02That one.
03:03Our obsession with Tarzan Boy began on our first ever tour with Veruca Salt.
03:07We were so green.
03:09We had no idea what we were doing and Tarzan Boy really got us through that first tour.
03:14Tarzan Boy was like the flame and then Hot Action Cop, a band from early 2000s maybe.
03:22Yeah.
03:23They had some ridiculous songs.
03:24There's a movie called Grind.
03:25It's a skateboarding movie.
03:26The soundtrack is absolutely insane and that was the one that like threw gasoline on the
03:31fire.
03:32Fever for the Flavor.
03:33Fever for the Flavor specifically.
03:34Absolutely ridiculous song and then from there, we developed this game in the van that I think
03:38is like the best game to play in a car, which is basically you try to imagine a song that
03:46could possibly exist on Spotify based off of-
03:50Just a phrase you come up with.
03:52A phrase you come up with, but you can't know that there's a song with that title.
03:56It should be like, this like shouldn't be a song, but maybe it is.
03:59And then you look up if it is a song and then you listen to it and we've gotten some amazing
04:04additions to The Blast Radio.
04:05One of the best prompts came from Dan and it was, forgive me, bitch.
04:09And we did find a really great song from that.
04:12It was called Forgive Me off of the album Son of a Bitch.
04:15Yes.
04:16And it's forever in our rotation.
04:19So we've found a lot of artists with about two monthly listeners, some real bottom of
04:23the barrel, exciting new artists from this game.
04:27So we have a very special, he's like kind of like the pilot, the captain of the van.
04:32His name is Chad.
04:33Actually, we just learned his name on this tour.
04:35We didn't realize he had the name Chad on his underwear, but, and he rides a dragon.
04:40Yes.
04:41And he sits on the dragon and he sits here and he usually ends up down here somewhere,
04:46but we always rescue him.
04:47And just like that, he looks like he's doing the ray gun.
04:52Yeah.
04:53Wow.
04:54That's so good.
04:57We've got a lot of empty cans.
04:59Not really.
05:00Of course.
05:01Of course.
05:02Of course.
05:03Of course.
05:04Of course.
05:05Of course.
05:06Of course.
05:07Many, um, sad, abandoned, uh, water bottles.
05:10I drank out of that water bottle on day one of the tour and I will not use it again.
05:14And it's going to sit there for the entire tour.
05:15That's so green.
05:16That is so green of you.
05:17Yes.
05:18Well.
05:19Climate Daddy.
05:20That's right.
05:21Snack pit.
05:22Snack pit goes...
05:23Snack pit's pretty light as of now.
05:24Got some wavy ruffles, lots of tortilla chips, which is pretty standard.
05:27Tortilla chips are what I eat when I get car sick, so that's very important to always have tortilla chips on hand. You need to have those.
05:33There's a lot of like quarter bottle left tequilas around that we'd never consolidate. Should we do a quick shot?
05:38No. Oh wow.
05:40What? No.
05:42We need to have a drink tonight.
05:44Wow.
05:46You can do a shot, you know.
05:48Shocking for Dan to be the one to say no tequila right now.
05:50Every time we walk into a hotel,
05:52Dan walks in, tequila first.
05:54Tequila on
05:56the check-in counter
05:58just so they know who we are and what we came to achieve.
06:00Anything else that's good?
06:02Oh, we were just in Canada
06:04where they have ketchup chips.
06:06Phenomenal. Some of the best chips out there.
06:08Really special. You can only get them there, I think.
06:10I've seen them here.
06:12Let's see what's happening in the middle.
06:14Should we release them from the middle?
06:16They've sat in there long enough.
06:18The door has gotten increasingly harder to open
06:20as we have owned it.
06:22It started out as like mildly hard to open.
06:24Now it's very hard to open.
06:26It's a real feat of strength.
06:32Come on in!
06:34I'm going to go way in back.
06:36I am so pleased to introduce Daniel Schur,
06:38bassist of Charlie Bliss,
06:40resident dad of the band.
06:42And guitar! And guitar! And comedy.
06:44And this is Spencer Fox.
06:46He is guitarist of Charlie Bliss,
06:48resident wine expert
06:50of the band.
06:52I'd also like to introduce you
06:54to the TV
06:56inside our van.
06:58Unfortunately, it has never
07:00worked and right now I'm pretty sure
07:02it is full of water.
07:04Sometimes, on a really lucky day,
07:06it'll turn on unexpectedly.
07:08And that's always a really exciting moment.
07:10It has a million lines running through it.
07:12That's about all it ever does.
07:14Up here,
07:16this used to have an Xbox that came
07:18with the van.
07:20During the peak of COVID,
07:22I unscrewed this and took it out
07:24to play Halo 2 in my apartment,
07:26which I did approximately one time.
07:28Did it work? Yeah.
07:30It wasn't too full of water? No.
07:32We had some early flooding issues.
07:34You can see that right up top.
07:36A nice custom water dance.
07:38New species of mushrooms
07:40sprouting on the ceiling,
07:42which is really exciting for us.
07:44Cultivating.
07:46There is a smell to this van,
07:48I'm not going to lie.
07:50We have more people than usual
07:52in the van this tour.
07:54We're touring with Raffaella
07:56and our friend Noah.
07:58I feel like the smell has dissipated
08:00from having more people in the van.
08:02What does that say about us?
08:04Maybe we are the problem.
08:06Usually,
08:08there's one person driving,
08:10one person in the front seat,
08:12three across this front bench.
08:14I am always where Spencer is sitting.
08:16It used to be the sleeping chamber,
08:18also known as the only place
08:20that you could fart in the van
08:22and supposedly get away with it.
08:24But I don't know, I've never tried.
08:26I've never tried, I'm so weird.
08:28A few moments where some aromas
08:30travel their way
08:32up towards the front of the van.
08:34But yeah,
08:36we can go with that narrative.
08:38Usually on a tour,
08:40if it's just the four of us,
08:42if I'm not driving, I'm in the isolation chamber
08:44trying to sleep.
08:46Our AC wasn't working for a long time,
08:48so this also became a sweat lodge.
08:50I had some of the best naps of my life back here.
08:52I had some great visions
08:54and hallucinations.
08:56I miss it, actually.
08:58I almost want to turn the air off
09:00next time I'm in the van.
09:02Will do.
09:04Spenny, have I left anything behind?
09:06Well, no,
09:08but in our old van,
09:10Eva, as we know,
09:12always sits in the seat.
09:14Something I found out
09:16about our old van
09:18is tucked away right over here,
09:20you've had a bit of a shrine
09:22going on.
09:24What the shrine was,
09:26was a monument to every single piece of gum
09:28she chewed on tour.
09:30Meaning,
09:32she stuck
09:34every piece of gum
09:36that she chewed,
09:38instead of disposing it at the many gas stations,
09:40Where?
09:42The gas stations and trashes!
09:44There was just this wall of gum.
09:46It was in like a little hole, right?
09:48It was the gum graveyard.
09:50I didn't think anyone was going to find it.
09:52There was a hole in the wall.
09:54And I would just stick it back in there.
09:58So this is a bag from Zingerman's,
10:00a lovely deli in Ann Arbor.
10:02We had sandwiches.
10:04Currently it's full of White Claw,
10:06more tequila, Topo Chico,
10:08which is like the best green room
10:10surprise ever.
10:12Our favorite seltzer, please sponsor us.
10:16We have back here a merch
10:18kind of rack that we
10:20conveniently hide behind the seats so it doesn't take up
10:22space or get in the way of our
10:24back storage.
10:26We've never used it.
10:28Right now it's main function is to just scratch me when I'm not looking.
10:30It also went on a nice
10:32bumpy road. It gives us a nice
10:34clanking sound.
10:36In case it was getting too tranquil,
10:38this is here so that while we're driving
10:40it can make this awful tinny sound.
10:44We have some beautiful
10:46organizers here to store
10:48drinks, trash.
10:50This is a trash one but it's currently
10:52leaking some mysterious goo
10:54earlier.
10:56There's always going to be some goo around.
10:58You're going to have some goo.
11:00Oh, this is
11:02one of our new pieces of merch.
11:04It's inspired by the album cover of Len.
11:06Which, by the way, we
11:08just got to play Steal My Sunshine
11:10with Mark from Len
11:12in Toronto.
11:14We might get to do it again.
11:16Who knows?
11:18Another big thing about back
11:20here is this is usually where the
11:22CB library lives.
11:24Eva just finished the new
11:26Miranda July book and now
11:28it's my turn to read it.
11:30Back there somewhere I have a copy of the
11:32new Bret Easton Ellis book,
11:34The Shards, but we're big readers.
11:36We keep a lot of books over here.
11:38We have two old license plates here and
11:40I believe this is part of the air
11:42conditioning. I think this goes here.
11:44For now it just kind of lives under here.
11:46I just like how that looks better.
11:48I don't know.
11:50We use the under the seat storage as well
11:52to store more. Oh, this is some diesel
11:54exhaust fluid or something.
11:56This is interesting. I just found Eva's
11:58receipt from Shake Shack
12:00and I'm just finding out that
12:02she added crispy onions to her Shack
12:04burger, which I never knew
12:06was a thing you did and it sounds delicious.
12:08Yes, I highly recommend. I'm always
12:10adding shit to my burgers.
12:12It's like a fried onion.
12:14Sam, I think there was more
12:16diesel exhaust fluid in here. Oh no, this is coolant.
12:20We got a little something for everybody.
12:22This is a
12:24mesh cowboy hat that I
12:26ordered from Party City.
12:28That thing rocks.
12:30I've become obsessed with doordashing
12:32insane things.
12:34I've doordashed hair bleach
12:36four times. On tour,
12:38sometimes once the van is
12:40situated and you've been driving all day
12:42you don't want to get back in the car.
12:44If you're in a city and you can doordash
12:46something, I love to see what's
12:48available. I think this time I was trying
12:50to get pearls and they didn't
12:52have them so all I got were these mesh cowboy hats
12:54which I didn't really want.
12:56This is a bottle of
12:58Casamigos. I'm just going to
13:00go ahead and publicly announce
13:02this shit is trash. I don't know
13:04why this is the most popular tequila
13:06in the fucking country right now. It tastes like
13:08vanilla frosting. I don't understand.
13:10George Clooney, come at me, dog.
13:12I think vanilla frosting tastes
13:14kind of good.
13:16Second bench, we put our
13:18suitcases in usually so that
13:20they can just be taken out
13:22easily when we get to the hotel.
13:24Right now it's
13:26wine storage for Spencer.
13:28We're doing a new series on this tour for
13:30TikTok where we
13:32surprise Spencer with
13:34some wines and he has to blind taste them.
13:36Spencer has a lot of wine
13:38knowledge and so that's something you can check out
13:40on our TikTok.
13:42He just failed the first test
13:44though, I'm going to be honest.
13:46I didn't do great
13:48but I didn't do terribly.
13:50There's a lot of room to improve.
13:52Now that this is
13:54not a sweat lodge, it is more
13:56functional. On this tour,
13:58two to three people are usually sitting here.
14:00We have this nice pillow. We rented the van
14:02to another band and they left us this
14:04nice pillow. It's beautiful and it smells
14:06only a little weird.
14:08We have some
14:10Berrystale tortilla chips.
14:12That's from the first show.
14:14Big bag
14:16of socks. I think everyone
14:18on the tour left without
14:20socks and all of us needed to go get them.
14:22Here's a book. Is this what you were talking about?
14:24Yeah, it's the book.
14:26I don't know how to read.
14:28Some various snacks.
14:30Crunchy. I think that's an English
14:32thing. My favorite
14:34Flake. Flake is dope. Flake is my favorite
14:36English candy. Those are Roth's Candied
14:38Nuts. Candied Nuts from Nut Factory.
14:40Some sort of
14:42I think there's
14:44a piece on the floor.
14:46There's a piece on the floor.
14:48I think it's for your voice.
14:50Somehow.
14:52Probably like that.
14:54Look at this.
14:56Our old
14:58We all drew that
15:00together at the first date
15:02of our Veruca Salt tour.
15:04It was our first legit tour
15:06in 2015.
15:08We showed up to the venue
15:106 hours early because we didn't know any better.
15:12We were literally sitting there
15:14before anyone was there
15:16and we painted that and used this for
15:18many years. To properly date
15:20that, I was doing homework
15:22in that green room. I was doing
15:24homework for college summer school.
15:26I got some other cool
15:28stuff. I found some dance
15:30streamers. What is that from?
15:32I think that's for Roth maybe.
15:34They're really sick. That's awesome.
15:36Is this a gas canister?
15:40Yeah.
15:42It's full. That's cool.
15:44It's never been used in fact.
15:46It smells like nothing.
15:48Why is that here?
15:50Over here there are some outlets
15:52but we try not to use them because
15:54it makes a noise when they
15:56This noise is
15:58It's concerning.
16:00We've never really
16:02identified if it leads to anything
16:04bad happening but sometimes we
16:06blame bad things happening. Nothing good can
16:08come of a sound like that. Do you guys want to talk
16:10about the countdown on
16:12the van? The 10-9-8-7-6-5-4?
16:14It needs diesel exhaust
16:16fluid and it does this thing where
16:18it says you have X number
16:20of starts left before the
16:22van won't start again.
16:24There was a while where no matter how much diesel exhaust fluid
16:26we put in, it wouldn't register in the system.
16:28It would be like 13 starts
16:30left, 8 starts left.
16:32There was one time we pulled up
16:34at a gas station in Columbus.
16:36An hour outside of Columbus.
16:38We knew we had one start left
16:40and we used our last one and we
16:42had to get gas. We had no choice.
16:44We were like, alright, this is it.
16:46We pulled up to the gas station. It locked us out.
16:48We had to take Ubers to the venue
16:50and I don't remember what we did
16:52about it. This van has broken
16:54down a handful of times.
16:56In fact, the start of
16:58earlier in this tour, right as we were
17:00coming back to New York, it started
17:02smoking and luckily
17:04we were just a short drive to
17:06Sam's house in the Bronx.
17:08We were able to take an Uber
17:10to his place, grab some cars,
17:12load up as much as we
17:14could. We left a couple amps and stuff
17:16and some merch, but we
17:18got most of it there. I think as a
17:20band, we're very resourceful and
17:22able to deal with
17:24unfortunate problems, but
17:26yes, the van's health
17:28is currently an ongoing issue.
17:30There's nothing cooler than pulling up to a venue
17:32in two passenger vehicles. It's really cool.
17:34It looks like your mom is taking you.
17:36Here's where all the gear
17:38goes.
17:40We thought it would look nicer if it
17:42was more of a curtain vibe,
17:44so we custom ripped
17:46that down.
17:48Everything fits in here like crazy. I am
17:50usually the one to kind of touch the van,
17:52although Spencer and Dan definitely have their
17:54fair share of packs. I feel like
17:56sometimes I have these masterful,
17:58genius packs that are incredible, and
18:00sometimes I've maybe
18:02had a little too much to drink at the show
18:04and it is an absolute disaster,
18:06but you're already committed, so you throw everything on top
18:08and then it avalanches on you the next day, but
18:10Spencer last night had a masterful
18:12pack that is actually game-changing, so we're going to
18:14implement that. Huge.
18:16Does it have a new name?
18:18We like to
18:20pretend it's like...
18:22We associate different countries with different packs, like
18:24this is a Peruvian pack today, or
18:26Lebanese, or something like that.
18:28This is a Russian pack.
18:30For no reason at all, just
18:32to make it fun. Corresponds to nothing.
18:34Make something really not fun, kind of fun.
18:36That's that.
