1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,639 Speaker 1: Daily bespoke content that you won't find on the radio 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: show The Hurdarki Breakfast podcast. 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 2: Have you met Maniah Neil Neil Manaa. 4 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 3: I don't know, but my grandson's name is Manyah, so 5 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 3: I'm very very happy to meet another Maniyah powerful. 6 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm happy to hear grandson as well. With far 7 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 4: out numbered, there's far more female Maniyas than males. 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know there's a few. Yeah. And the other 9 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 3: thing that you would be well used to and unfortunately 10 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 3: happens to our grandson and I who is that on 11 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 3: the page? It was written down as Mania? 12 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 2: Oh god? 13 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 4: Yeah? Is that on his birth certificate? 14 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 3: No, it's he's Manaiah. But he often gets you know, 15 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 3: like if people write his name, they often write mania. 16 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 4: This happens to me almost daily, Neil. I tell them 17 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 4: that mania is a mental disorder, I would assume, and. 18 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 3: I would sympathize with you, empathize. 19 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, it's all of the vowels. It's just I 20 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: think I believe Europeans get a bit freaked out when 21 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: they see three vowels together. It just makes us get you. 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. And also now I had a connection from a 23 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 3: lovely woman in Sydney for this call, and she didn't 24 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 3: know how to say Hochi either, so it was kind 25 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: of gets quite confusing. 26 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, often a lot of people think that I were 27 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 4: for an Evy station. But I tell people when they 28 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 4: struggle with my name, like Mania Twain and then and 29 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 4: then it colicks for them. 30 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 3: That's a good one. I'll tell our Maniah about that one. 31 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 4: Yes, Mania Twain will serve them. 32 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 2: Well, Neil, who was it that made the initial call 33 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: to get the band back together? 34 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 3: How did God? I can't even actually remember the moment, 35 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 3: except that we did a thing last year in my 36 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 3: studio where we got together to kind of play for 37 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 3: a while and we invited the old members in. We 38 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 3: were filming for what potentially will be a split end Stoco, 39 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: and we just slipped into it so effortlessly and so 40 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 3: easily that it became some of the So it became 41 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: talked about, and then somebody came to us with an offer. 42 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 3: It was for Electric Avenue. It was the offer that 43 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 3: came through and it just felt like the right time. 44 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 3: Somehow it just clicked with the moment. So yeah, we 45 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 3: said yes to that, and then of course once we 46 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: had that was that one show is going to be 47 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: a bit weird. Maybe we should do do a few more, 48 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 3: you know, just to get the old girl really up 49 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 3: and running. 50 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: What was what was a liter gave like? 51 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: It was amazing We had It was the first show 52 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: on seventeenth year. It was our thousandth show. It's hard 53 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 3: to say that. Actually Noel reminded us somebody had told him, 54 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: but we had. And we played forty thousand people on 55 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 3: a size a stage the size of you know, Coachella, 56 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 3: and with our new costumes, and it really went as 57 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 3: well as we possibly could have hoped. All the crowd 58 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 3: was singing, they were sort of euphoric, and I'd say 59 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: a good proportion of them, if not the majority, probably 60 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 3: weren't even born when the songs were first written. So 61 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: it was just an amazing reminder of how songs stay 62 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 3: in the air and how they just traveled through the 63 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 3: years and accompanyed people and their good times and they're 64 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: bad times. And then we were able to enjoy it 65 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: all together. It didn't feel different, you know, it felt 66 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 3: like we were on stage just like it had always been. 67 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 3: And you look out this audience and they all looked 68 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: like the same, you know, some of the some of 69 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 3: the people were old and you know, like us, but 70 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: some of them were lots of them were real younger 71 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 3: like they always were. 72 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: You know, so many hits. How do you decide the 73 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 2: set list? Is that? Does that? Does one person end up? 74 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: Do you have to say? Okay, Well, in the end, 75 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 2: we can all make suggestions and then I'm going to 76 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: have the final say or does someone have the power 77 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: of Vito Well. 78 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: Tim probably would be the one who wrangled this set 79 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: list mostly, but we all you know, waged in for 80 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 3: the ones that are the fringe dwellers. We knew we 81 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: only had an what was sort of an eighty minute set, 82 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 3: so we were able to do we bang out all 83 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 3: of the hits and then a few of the sort 84 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 3: of songs that became quite well known, like I think 85 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 3: Poor boyd doubt that was ever a single, but it 86 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 3: became very well known song, and you know, things that 87 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 3: were So we had to decide on the ones that 88 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 3: were slightly off to the side. When we do a tour, 89 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 3: which we're about to do, we'll be enlarging the setlist. 90 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: Tour are longer, so we'll have got it five or 91 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 3: six more songs to add, so a few dip cuts, 92 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 3: maybe a couple of the old songs from the early days, 93 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 3: but yeah, term is probably at the center of things. 94 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 3: He sings, you know, more songs than I do, so 95 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 3: he wants to mistake his claim. But it was a 96 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 3: pretty democratic band. There's a few vetos here and there 97 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: on on things, but yeah, I've been very, very agreeable. 98 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: We're getting on really well. 99 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: You mentioned it was your thousandth show. Were you guys 100 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 4: aware of that before that show? Were you sitting on 101 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 4: nine nine nine things? And come on, we're going to 102 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 4: get one more on the record, surely. 103 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 3: No, I mean, Noel was the one. And Nol is 104 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 3: not a statistics guy, you know, he's not. He sits 105 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 3: around and draws and and plays weird things with his 106 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 3: drum sticks, but he doesn't normally look at the stats. 107 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 3: He came into rehearsal and said, yeah, do you guys 108 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 3: realize it's you know, a thousand shows coming up? We 109 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 3: hadn't known that, so yeah, phenomenal. 110 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 2: So you've got obviously got Tim and you and Eddies 111 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: in there, and Noel's there, Man Eagles is in there 112 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: as well, and James Milne as well. Lawrence Ape people 113 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: who know him as Lawrence Arabia. So how did those 114 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: guys go? Because I imagine Matt and James would have 115 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: been shitting their pants. They're about to play with arguably 116 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: the biggest New Zealand band in history. Did you have 117 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: any words to say to them before they went out there, 118 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: just to ease the nerves or did you ramp it 119 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 2: up on purpose? 120 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 3: I had to give James a hug not long before 121 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 3: we went on because I was having We actually had 122 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 3: subtle makeup applied. We didn't do the full crusty white 123 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 3: theatrical makeup because we thought it would look really bad 124 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 3: halfway through the seat if we're all sweating and the 125 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 3: makeup was starting to peel and the craps appearing, you know, 126 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 3: So we went for some kind of you know, it's 127 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 3: more all make up, more like what you probably have on. 128 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: Seven, a lot of cake it on and a lot 129 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: of just. 130 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 3: To smooth out the rough edges. You know. We stopped 131 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: short of shots in the lips and you know, sorry, 132 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,239 Speaker 3: now I've got off topic. 133 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:18,559 Speaker 2: Now. 134 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 3: I was getting my getting my makeup done from a 135 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 3: young lady in Christchurch and I looked out the window 136 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 3: and James was just pacing past the window. Gulping huge 137 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: gobs of the air, and I sensed that he was 138 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: on the verge of a panic attack. So I went 139 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: out and gave him a nice big hug and told 140 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: him everything was going to be okay, and he played 141 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 3: a blinder and he was fine once he got on stage. 142 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 3: He was very nervous. Matt I think was very nervous too, 143 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 3: But Matt doesn't he kind of he's quite inscrutable, you know, 144 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 3: it doesn't display it. James was clearly very very scared. 145 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 2: It's freaky. It's a freaky thing. I mean, how's the 146 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: dynamic change. Obviously it's changed massively since you first arrived 147 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: in the band as a teenager. I mean you've got 148 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 2: a lot more clout nowadays. I imagine with not only 149 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: your brother, but with the other members of the band. 150 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 3: A sort of all. I'm still the youngest in Eddie's eyes. 151 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: He'll still every now and again motion for me to 152 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: sit on the floor so you're talking to But I 153 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 3: won't now. I used to, you know, that was one 154 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 3: of his party trips, was young fella on the floor 155 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: and he'd given me a talking to. But no, it 156 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 3: doesn't work anymore. 157 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: Jerr Any Wells and Mania Stuet find them on Instagram 158 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: at Hodarki Breakfast.

Does that change over time 163 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 4: as well? 164 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's discussion about you know, there's certain songs that 165 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: will be difficult for different reasons for different people. So 166 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: you know, there might be a song that's really hard 167 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 3: for Tim to sing the lyrics of because he doesn't 168 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 3: believe them anymore, or you know, there might be one 169 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 3: that Eddie says, there's no way remember how to play that, 170 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 3: although he always says that, but he always manages.

He was in some kind of brace 177 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: before we went on, but it didn't seem to matter. 178 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: Once we got on stage, where do you draw the line, 179 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 2: like in terms of solo stuff and crowded house stuff. 180 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: Do you because people be wanting you to bult out 181 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 2: some crowded house stuff, do you do you go there? 182 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: Or do you not go there? 183 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 3: We don't need to because the crowded House are out 184 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 3: there doing it as well.

Any used 202 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: to do a pretty crazy version of feelings. That Feelings. 203 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 2: Not the Deja Voodoo song, I hope. 204 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 3: No, I don't know that one. I don't know.

It's a 209 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 3: belter from the sixties or seventies. Eddie does that and 210 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 3: then possibly hide pitch and he can't really sing, so 211 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: it was quite entertaining its own way. 212 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: I interviewed Eddie not long ago, and he and he 213 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: was remaster Yeah, what was he remastering? He's mastering. I 214 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 2: think it was fifty probably was, And he and he said, 215 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: I said, oh, is there any any bits that you've 216 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: just had to auto tune Tim's voice? You know, any 217 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 2: notes that Tim didn't hit? And and he's like, well, 218 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: there actually were a couple of notes there. And then 219 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: when I spoke to him, I said, you know that, 220 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: didd He told me that there's a couple of that. 221 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: He said, I have never I have never hit a flat. 222 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 2: I've never been flat, never were there with any moments 223 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 2: thought on stage to come on to him. 224 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 3: I wouldn't contradict him, and I would say on record, 225 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 3: I don't think we had such a thing as auto 226 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 3: tune in those days anyway, So I'd say on record, 227 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 3: there's not a single no that's been changed in any form. 228 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 3: You know, these days in the studio, you never know 229 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: what you're listening to. Everyone's bolted down and tuned it 230 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 3: within an inch of its life, but not me. I 231 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 3: would actually hasten to add I don't use order tune either, 232 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 3: but yeah, yeah, there's no badge of honor for that. 233 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 3: You don't get sent to black for it or anything. 234 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: I think it's I think that's great. I think at 235 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 2: a time when there's a lot of computer stuff, I 236 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 2: think it's nice to have a human but you can 237 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: you just know there's something, there's something that you feel 238 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 2: that's human about, something that makes you makes it, you 239 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 2: warm to it. 240 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and even tuning is you know. I like some 241 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 3: of my favorite vocalists people you swear singing slightly out 242 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: of tune. They're very strong, like you know, Robert Smith 243 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 3: and the Cure. Maybe David Byrne, Neil Young all have 244 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 3: that slightly wobbly thing where you do. I'm not sure 245 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 3: whether they're perfectly in tune, but somehow it just has 246 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 3: a beautiful, human reassuring presence. Yeah. 247 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 4: Do you feel like that's the way the music is 248 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 4: going to go? Because now this so much you know, 249 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 4: as you say, auto tune, but even AI and stuff 250 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 4: like that, I feel like more and more people are 251 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 4: going to want to hear the imperfections in the music. 252 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 4: That's sort of what makes it goods the flub notes 253 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 4: and the slightly miss notes singing and things like that. 254 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: I hope, so hope that's the way. I mean, certainly 255 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 3: no AI actually were going to perform live. Well, actually 256 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: Aberra are slightly AI now, aren't they. But yeah, I 257 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 3: mean it's live music is always going to be great 258 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: for that reason because people are going to even though 259 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: I've got to say, actually, even though a lot of 260 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 3: live gigs people are using auto tune, and fact they're 261 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 3: using tapes. Still, I think when there's lots of dance 262 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 3: moves to pull off, but we're not. We've got no grid, 263 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: we've got no click where it's what you see is 264 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 3: what you hear is what you get? 265 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 2: Hey, what happens after the shows? Are you guys getting 266 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: on it heavily? Did you feel like you needed to 267 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: tuck in after Electric Ev and Christ? 268 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? The four works, Jeremy, we just went totally mad. 269 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 3: We had like seventeen years of partying, git done on 270 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 3: one night. So yeah, I mean, I think I think 271 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: I was. I think I saw good Night Kiwi TV. 272 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 3: Oh wow, I don't think it even exists anymore? Does it? 273 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: Nothing ever stops anymore? This is the thing. Everything just 274 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: keeps going. 275 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 3: It used to be the saddest thing moment on earth 276 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 3: when Good Night Kiwi came on. I thought that New 277 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: Zealand was going that it wasn't acceptable to be awake 278 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 3: after the TV finished. 279 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 2: There's something about the hauntingness of the of the organ 280 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, it's it's beautiful though. 281 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 3: It is beautiful and sad and melancholy, and I love 282 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 3: so it's sad and melancholy. But we used to come 283 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 3: at that point we were living in Australia and they 284 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 3: had all night movies and they had like rage on 285 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 3: the weekends and everything, and we'd come back to New 286 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 3: Zealand and stay with Sharon's mum and and then good 287 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: night Kiwi.
