I'm Jamie the drummer. Chariot the vocalist. Isaac bursis nice here at Bloodstock. We are. We just played today. You did? We did? Oh man, if you couldn't. I don't interview bands that play here now. I mean our Camvin situation is like we're attending.

0:45 But well that's true. But it is a lot of fun out there, isn't it. He will play Gret. Let's so tell me about the performance a little bit because I was stuck in here. So we'll pass it around as we as we sometimes do. So the performance was amazing. We we always. Sorry the job. You're my assistant. The performance. The performance was amazing, not not I was playing, but like the experience. The stage crew absolutely amazing. The stage was great. We always do better than got a bigger stage, more room to move around. Yeah, it's just fantastic, but we've It's like in the British scene anyway. Playing Bloodstock is one of the pinnacles.

1:37 That blow your mind that you're here at Bloodstock and you had such a crowd for your set. Yes, yeah, I'll pass it on to AAAC. I'm telling you, I'm taking it over because Johnny's. A nightmare and you, I can't believe you just elbowed him to take the mic away. So we started about a year ago. So so you get from there, from what practicing some little crack down to to play in bloodstockery there, it's been an absolute treat right well, father, guess blown away. This is exactly what we're working towards. But a lot of blood, sweat and tears with that. If you can't tell, we'll if you. If you wonder what we look like.

2:17 We're wearing very silly hats right now. Johnny looks like a princess. Well, to be fair, it is Sophie Lancaster Day and you have to wear pink. So perfect, Johnny, he's contributed. You nailed it, Johnny. You guys are contributing to you're all you all have pink on your your pink. One so we are crack. Johnny's doing binge jousting. Did you do it? Did you do them? Oh? I want to see that after the interview. But I do want I want whoever wants to talk about. I want you to describe this binge jousting thing at Bloodstock.

2:59 I saw it a pillow fight. Exactly what it's like. Don't you worry, I'll do it right. Bing jousting basically, yeah, exactly. You get two people on bins, you have a crew to push them, pushed them right at each other, and you have to get the other person off of their bin. Right. It's like jousting, but without the poles and still. The danger and no horse, no horse, yeah, no horses were harmed. Exactly, And basically you have a few options. I believe one of the best ones is the jump scare option, where you throw yourself at the person and give them no chance to defend themselves and you kill both years.

3:45 But as Isaac went for he grabbed Johnny by the by his buy his basically his underwear, launched him off, and as soon as he was off, he celebrated a bit as Mario and then gave him the people's here right right when he was down. A brilliant time. Yeah exactly, it's a brilliant time. People love it. It's late at night. You're just excited to do something, especially for a Thursday. It was brilliant. Well, I was watching the pillow fighting and that looked a lot of fun too. Man, I want to beat somebody up with a pillow. I mean, for us, you get to beat people up with inflatable sex dolls.

4:26 So oh ship, I missed that. Yeah I know, but I did marsh with dinosaurs the other day. Ah, yeah, so that was cool. Heavyrus, come on, get the name right? Yeah? Yeah, yeah. You were in sad and to mic so everybody can hear. I wanted to see heavy sourus, but our guitar player had the foresight of bringing a tent that isn't suitable for normal camping. It's a camper van tent that multiple people to put up. And the fact that we were squashed in like just last minute between these lovely Welsh people that we've had to camp with, but we clearly took up their communal area. Yeah, and I had to help him put it up because he kept swearing at the tent he needed.
