It's great 15 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: Now mentioned guys in one studio and hey, well three, 16 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it, all right, but I've 17 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: I've gotten to know you guys individually, of course, but 18 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: I've never really been able to talk about the group 19 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: and this this show is all about the boy band 20 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: fandom out there and what kind of started it all 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: for all of us. Yeah. Um, so let's start at 22 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: the beginning. Big Time Rush Nickelodeon show. We all know 23 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm wearing I wrapped our shirt just for you guys. 24 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: I appreciate that, huh. But I was telling right before 25 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: we went live that the real rivalry is Disney versus Nickelodeon, 26 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: not Backstreet didn't sync. We were Disney band. Y'are a 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: Nickelodeon band? Was it actually Disney though, Yeah, that's where 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: it started. Well, oh yeah, because Mickey Mouse Clubs, you 29 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: were technically a Disney band. Well when they started, you know, 30 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: Disney associate, we were Disney back. I'm just trying to him. 31 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: I know, if it wasn't for the Disney special and 32 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: we used to be Nickelodeon, Sony Columbia back. Yeah, now 33 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: we're not exactly. So we all evolved. I will say though. 34 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: One of my first shows I ever filmed was a 35 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: Disney show. Yeah, and it was called Life Bites. Okay. 36 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: I never got picked up, And in fact, the creator 37 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: of the show had me audition for Big Time Rush 38 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: and he came to me and he was like, I, 39 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: why don't you know I saw your show? And I 40 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: was like, oh great, he goes. I hated that show, 41 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: but he goes, you were the only funny one and 42 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: so I wanted you to come an audition for it. 43 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: So it turned out that he actually saw me from 44 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: a Disney show originally, and then I somehow went to 45 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: the dark side and join Nickelodeon. That's it's kind of 46 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: like a JC story. He was auditioning for Newsies the 47 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: movie and then ended up doing Mickey Mouse Club because 48 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: of the news He's audition. Wow. H So you never 49 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: knowed kids, all stepping stones. Never give up out there. 50 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: You never know where you're going to get discovered. The 51 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: door leads to another. Yeah, we just also had Trevor 52 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: Panic on the show from Otown and that happened the 53 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: same way too. Yeah, the auditioned for making the band. Yeah, 54 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: didn't get called to come actually, because he sent in 55 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: a tape. His friend and him did a duo thing. 56 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: His friend got called in, but him not. But he 57 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: went to the audition anyway and stood in line and 58 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: they picked him out of the line. I said, no, 59 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: you're auditioning, and he made the band personally right there. Tenacity. 60 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, So how did the group because some 61 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: people don't know that the group was made for the 62 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: TV show or were you a group and then got 63 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: the TV show. It was both I'll let you. I'll 64 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: let you kind of go through the whole process because 65 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: you sure, yeah, it was there from the beginning. You 66 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: were Logan and I are actually the first one in 67 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: the first round of auditioning. It was a two year process, 68 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: believe it or not, where Sony Columbia and Nickelodeon came 69 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: together and said, hey, we want to create a band 70 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: that's a real band, but they can also be a 71 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: real scripted television show. Allah the Monkeys. I think it 72 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: was a good example. Hey, hey, and so we were seventeen. 73 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: I was seventeen we first started auditioning. It's two thousand 74 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: and seven, and we went through this whole entire process. 75 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: I mean they flew in, they saw thousands of kids 76 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: and picked I think forty of us. Flew everybody to 77 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: LA and we literally would have acting coaches, singing coaches, 78 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: dance coaches. We learned choreography and songs. Well, speaking of 79 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: making the band, it was very much like the film 80 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: and filmed the entire thing. I mean people were getting cut, 81 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: kids were crying. It was like at the beginning of 82 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: it was pretty gnarly because they didn't know exactly what 83 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: they were trying to create. They were just like, all right, 84 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: let's see they were pretty much and they did a 85 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: good job of that. But no, it was It was 86 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. The craziest part though, is that 87 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: we actually ended up with a group before at the 88 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: end of the first round, in the first screen test, 89 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: and little did we know there was going to be 90 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: three more screen tests over the next two years. So, 91 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously it worked out in the end, but 92 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: we even ended up filming a pilot episode with another 93 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: character that was in place of Kindle because we didn't 94 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: have him at the time. So the guy's name was Kurt, 95 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: really talented Broadway star, but it just didn't quite fit 96 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: the group and kind of what we needed on the 97 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: recording side of things, and we ended up having another 98 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: screen test again, like multimillion Dollar pilot. Kindle jumped in 99 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: and then everything just kind of solidified and felt right, wow, yeah, 100 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: I mean everyone's kind of going through that too. I 101 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: feel like with every group they had a member that 102 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: jumped out or just didn't really fit. So how did 103 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: y'all know that Kendall was like the right guy? It was, well, 104 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: it was stuff, well I had I met him actually 105 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: about a month prior, and we were at a house 106 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: party and he was playing some music and I came 107 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: in and started singing, and so we jam for a 108 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: little bit. I got to kind of, you know, get 109 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: to know him. But it was one of those parts. 110 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: You know, we had been drinking, so it's more of 111 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: just kind of a hangout, not a you know, a 112 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: formal introduction. But whenever I saw him, I at the 113 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: screen test, I came right up to him. I was like, 114 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: what's up, man, Like, good to see you again, And 115 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, we just had such great chemistry. Everything just 116 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: kind of we were already joking within the first screen 117 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: test and messing around with each other like we had 118 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: been old friends. And I think one of those things, 119 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: it's just you know, when the stars all aligned, it 120 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: just everything felt right. Yeah, you know how it goes. 121 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: You know, when you got a group of group of guys, 122 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: group of people, you really the most important thing is like, yeah, 123 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: can you do the job, of course, but past that 124 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: level of good enough to do the job, who do 125 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: you want to spend the next many years of your 126 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: life when which is really important, very important? So I 127 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: mean we're all still friends today, Yeah, and people don't 128 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: realize that. You know, it's like you have to have 129 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: that chemistry as a band. You can be the best 130 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: singer in the world, but if you're an asshole, the 131 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: band's not gonna last that long. Totally. Yeah, absolutely, And 132 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: and that's what we were so lucky too. When we 133 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: got together. We we put ourselves together, so there was 134 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: this kind of friendship already, and then we lived in 135 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: a house together for a year before we even got 136 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: a record deal, so you knew by the time experience 137 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: it was. I loved it because look, I was sixteen 138 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: years old. It is based like camp, that's the time 139 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: to do it, because as you get old, you're like, okay, 140 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: I need my space. Yeah, oh no, I was totally 141 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: fine sleeping on a couch for months and yeah, and 142 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: living off hash Browns. That's that's that was my harsh 143 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: brands are still delicious. I mean, well, in between that time, 144 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: we were all kind of amos couch surfing two and 145 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: whenever I first moved out to la because I didn't 146 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: have anything. Yeah, and so until we actually started picking 147 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: up the show, that's whenever things just started to rock 148 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: and roll. But then you know, you know, their chemistry 149 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: is there and you're gonna be together for a long time. Yeah. 150 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: Um all right, so uh big time Rushing premiere two 151 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: thousand and nine. What do you what was that time like? 152 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: Because two thousand and nine, I would say the whole 153 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: boy band stuff started like falling off right and then 154 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: having a TV show. It was a great angle, I think, 155 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: to bring back a boy band. Absolutely, did y'all know 156 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: that it was going to be a success at that 157 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: time or did you have concerns that, like, wow, music 158 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: is really changing right now? Well after two years, we 159 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: sure hoped. Yeah. I had friends also in other boy 160 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: bands trying to make it, and I kind of saw 161 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: those dissolved, and so it was kind of nerve racking 162 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: starting this project, especially I never really saw myself being 163 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: a boy band in the first place. But I think 164 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: I had a moment with kindall as we walked out 165 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: after Paramount after shooting our first week episode and thinking, 166 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: I think this could be something special, And it really 167 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: was more of the camaraderie. So even if it didn't 168 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: gain major success, I thought the relationship that we all 169 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: had there was something, There was some magic there, and 170 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: I think I felt it then. I don't know when 171 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: you felt it well. I think part of the reason 172 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: it was successful is we weren't trying to emulate anybody 173 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: that had come before. We looked at all the previous 174 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: boy bands and respected them, but we weren't you know, 175 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: we weren't trying to be the best dancers. We're trying 176 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: to We're trying to be our version of it. And 177 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: in many ways in the TV show very much alluded 178 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: toward towards this. In the episodes, it was like the 179 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: anti boy band boy band, where it's like, we're not 180 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: a boy band, We're just four best friends. And that's 181 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: carried us through today. We're now we totally use the 182 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: word boy band. We're proud of it, and that's rad. 183 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: But it still stems from, you know, four dudes, you 184 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: just want to make music together and entertained together. And 185 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: everyone's very interested in what is a boy band because 186 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: the term boy band has evolved. At what point doesn't 187 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: be called a man band right exactly? Question. We were 188 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: discussing this or a way here, and I think I've 189 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: figured out how you can be considered a boy band. 190 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: It's I think it's the fandom. I think if you're 191 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: a group of male presenting you know, uh, singers, you 192 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: don't have to dance, you don't have to play instruments. 193 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: Whatever it is. If you are a band made of 194 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: presenting men but had your fan base, you had tweens 195 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: and teens like yelling at you and screaming for you 196 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: right and throwing their brawls at you. I think that's 197 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: what makes a boy band, is the fandom. Yeah. Absolutely, 198 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: that's a huge part of it. I guess. Also something 199 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,719 Speaker 1: to say is that, I mean I feel like we 200 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: haven't really grew up our age like we did. We know, 201 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: we kind of have this like complex we are so 202 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: we are mature and so I feel like it, you know, 203 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: and the way we had that Boys charm Yeah yeah, 204 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: so yeah, But I think the fans of what I 205 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: don't know, because like Boys, the Man that Forever was 206 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: probably like, we're not a boy band, But now they 207 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: they embrace it, you know, because they started out and 208 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: they had the teens that were just going crazy for them. Yeah. 209 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: Even Beatles, you know, I mean absolutely, but Rolling Stone, 210 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they had the teens, or maybe they did. 211 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: I wasn't alive. Then do you think they were teens 212 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: throwing stuff? Yeah? Of course. Yeah, yeah, I feel like 213 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: that was one of a rock band, So what's a 214 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: differentiating factor, That's what I'm saying. But like I don't 215 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: think Rolling Stone had like the majority of their audience 216 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: wasn't tweens and teens. I think boy band are also 217 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 1: more pop, like the music's pop or a boy Okay, 218 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of I think that's fair. Okay, yeah, 219 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: popular music or popular music if it's wrong. And the 220 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: Beatles was very poppy, but their fandom again screaming, but 221 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: that was at the time. I don't know. But yeah, 222 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: like five Sauce, you know, they wouldn't consider the sales 223 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: a band boy band, I don't think, but like they 224 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 1: have the same fans. It's interesting, yeah, uh huh, because 225 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: you don't really have you don't, especially now you don't 226 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: have You don't have many like bands of like young 227 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: guys that look the part like they would be in 228 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: a boy band. You know what I mean. You don't 229 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: really have that many bands that are settings rock bands 230 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: because they were a band, but they bomb music. I 231 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: don't know. It pisses people off. Logan you are from Texas? Yes, Um, 232 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: do you get back? Did your family still live back? There. Yeah, 233 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: my immediate family, we've we've moved around, but I have 234 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: lots of family in Texas, so I see them a 235 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: couple of times a year and it's always pretty Did 236 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: you always knew you wanted to be an entertainer growing 237 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: up in Texas? I always did. Yeah. I had found 238 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: some a good place to study film at a young age, 239 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: and I always loved theater, and um, you know, I 240 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: wasn't always first pick for sports. I always loved playing sports, 241 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: but you know, I was just so much more captivated 242 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: by music and entertainment, and so I always really loved it. 243 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 1: And not until I got a little older was I like, 244 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: I think I could do this for real? For real? Yeah, 245 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: do you remember your first player musical you did as 246 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: a kid? I think I think Annie was the first one. Yeah, 247 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: did you play Annie? I did not, although honestly I 248 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: could go back. I could probably play a killer anything 249 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: pretty high. It's got a beautiful since. I probably could. 250 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: I was always jealous of the high voices because I'm 251 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: just I have this low voice. I couldn't get high. 252 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: But I feel like it's every side feels the other way. 253 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: It's like it's pretty dope. You have an awesome bass. 254 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: It's like I could never carry a note from more 255 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: than like four bars. Even for me, whenever I'm singing lower, 256 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: I try to go in first thing in the studio 257 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 1: without warming up because I'm like, there, that's good. And 258 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: then once I started, if you're a little high. Yeah, 259 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: that was the best thing about being the bass singer. 260 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: I as everyone's recording, like I'd always go to last 261 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: and put like three different bass parts on everything, which 262 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: you could never hear after the production was done. No 263 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: betterness at all. Right, it was great because I would 264 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: just kind of lay on the couch in the studio 265 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: and listen to all the guys seeing and I would 266 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: just take naps, and then right as I would kind 267 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: of wake up, my bass voice was perfect. Yeah. Well 268 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: look it's such a nice radio voice too. Yes, yes, 269 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: you really got it. It's such an important part of 270 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: a song though, which is like a lot of people 271 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: don't always get to hear that. I mean, it's really 272 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: what balances the entire I mean, it was my life. 273 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: I loved being a bass singer. Uh why did they 274 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: change your last name on the show, because it's Logan 275 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: Mitchell on the show, right, we it's actually all of 276 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: our first names are the same and all of our 277 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: last names are different. For years was Diamond. We wanted 278 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 1: to have some degree of separation, but it did help. 279 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: You know, you think about leaving the show and then 280 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: going out on the street and somebody going like, hey, Cameron, 281 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 1: and you're like name because there was so much of 282 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: life reflecting art and vice versa. It was a weird decision. 283 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: I've never been you know, having this conversation. It was like, 284 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: should we not have her names at all? We have 285 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 1: our real names? And we kind of found it that 286 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: was a good middle ground. That it follows you because 287 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: being you know, a young star and has this young 288 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: fan base, they really they feel like they know you, right. 289 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean you're their friend, you're their family, especially when 290 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 1: you're on TV. You're in their homes every day. And 291 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: we just saw that. We went to a us UCLA 292 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: basketball game last week and um, oh my god, Jilil 293 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: White was there and you know, he will always be 294 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: Erkele right right for our generation and now even this 295 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: young generation. And this kid probably was eight years old. 296 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: I went up to him and he was like, hey, wait, 297 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: you are you erkle it is? He's like, yeah, man, 298 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 1: So he goes, did I do that? Like starts repeating 299 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 1: all his lives and I'm thinking that must get so 300 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: old when it's not even your name. You're just like 301 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: this other character. And same thing with Carlton. Yeah, yeah, 302 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 1: you know, like can you do the Carlton dance? It's 303 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: like it's not But you know what I appreciate, whether 304 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: actor or singer, when they embrace it. Yeah, when they 305 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: go yeah, but at some point you got a snap, 306 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: you know, it's like right, it's like, yeah, we've had 307 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: a moment. You can be the nicest person in the 308 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: world and yes, give it to the but you might 309 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 1: have a bad day and then the next time someone says, hey, Urkele, 310 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: you just go off, shut up kid, exactly. Well. I 311 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: think what we've done is we've we've stayed on tours, 312 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: so the fans have gotten to really know us for 313 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 1: who we are, and so something like the character I 314 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: was playing it is very opposite of who I am 315 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: in real life, and so they start to catch on, 316 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: and I think with social media, they start going, oh, okay, 317 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: this is this is the person. The only people that 318 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: really love they call out the characters are newer fans 319 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: like The show was picked up by Netflix a couple 320 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: of years ago. So we do have this whole new 321 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: generation of younger fans. And when they ask for you know, hey, 322 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: James Diamond, can you do the face? You got to? 323 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: He's only got to. You know, when an older fan 324 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: does it, I'm kind of like, grow up, stop asking 325 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: me stupid questions. But when a younger fan of my 326 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: band bad Ass, you go totally just did it for 327 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: all of you pay attention at home exactly, but you do. 328 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: I mean having the younger generation love it, I mean 329 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: that's kind of the key. That's what keeps you young, 330 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: great and alive. Uh. And that's such That's why having 331 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: these different platforms like YouTube, you know, this young generation 332 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: really kind of latches on and they almost get to 333 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: experience what their parents got to experience, but at different times. Yeah, 334 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: and so wild. Also, it's a blessing, super humbling.

And I had no anyone else 345 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: talking about because I had no perspective. And all I 346 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: want now is a beach house back in Loya.

For sure. Um did 350 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: Dance on the Stars eighteenth season. Uh, the few of 351 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: us that have done this show, there is this kind 352 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: of family. Yeah, because we're the only ones that know 353 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: what we went through. And then I got a lot 354 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: of work that I mean, it was after doing that show, 355 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: I felt like I could do anything. It was the 356 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: one of the best experiences ever. But man, it was 357 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: hell brutal. Oh yeah, hell. I explained it as the 358 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: most amount of fun and every want to have Again. Yeah, 359 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm glad I did it. I mean, learned so much 360 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: in a short period of time, But holy shit, is 361 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: it stressful when you're learning a dance at your body's 362 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: never moved that way before, and you have like four 363 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: days to perfect it, and each time the cameras rolling 364 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: and it's like it's it's a very strange thing. And 365 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: then you know, by week I don't know, eight or ten, 366 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: you're learning two dances. You're like, it's it's I props 367 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: to dancers and props all the dancers on that. That's 368 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: show one of the most stressful parts, even whenever we're 369 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: getting ready for tour. So I can't imagine the train 370 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: movement that like suits our bodies, imagine doing ball room 371 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: stuff you've never done totally. Oh, it's it's crazy. Yeah, 372 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: But the same thing with me. I was never a 373 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: dancer when I joined in Sync, but I learned how 374 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: to dance, and getting ready for the tour was always 375 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: I was the most anxious because yeah, I would eventually 376 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: learn it, but it took me time, like I needed 377 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: to really digest it, and everyone else is so quickly. 378 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: I know, and you know, so yeah on tour great, 379 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: but just leading up to him tearing up, like my 380 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: hair out of my head. Well, even on tour, you know, 381 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: it's like the first five to ten shows, I'm just 382 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: like I wish I had a little more rehearsal, you know. 383 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: And then it's like, and of course we filmed our 384 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: MSG concert series on show six, and I'm like, if 385 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: it was show ten would have been that. It was Weirdly, 386 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: every single tour we did every run through never could 387 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: There was never run through that went perfectly never, which 388 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: is actually a good thing. Yeah. Well, but every first 389 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: show of every tour was perfect. That's why. But if 390 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: you get it right, if you get it too right 391 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: in rehearsal, your first show is gonna suck. I don't 392 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't believe in many, um not conspiracy's what do 393 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: you call this, superstitions? Sessions? I don't believe in tons 394 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: of superstitions, but that's one that I'm pretty fervent on. 395 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: It's like, if you're if you're run throughs go too well, 396 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: something's gonna something happening show, So I kind of love 397 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: knock you down. Yeah right. And then the other show 398 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: you did, my other favorite show, Big Brother. Yeah, that's 399 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: the most entertaining to watch. I mean, I could never 400 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: do the show because I could never have a camera 401 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: only twenty four seven because same I talked too much 402 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: and I'm going to say something stupid and get canceled. 403 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,120 Speaker 1: So I but I'm surprised you did so well. Yeah, 404 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: I held my tongue pretty well. Were you afraid of 405 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: that going in? Being like, Okay, I could easily get 406 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: canceled right now, you know, not so much going in 407 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: because I've got a pretty good awareness of like, Okay, 408 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: this is a job. There are cameras rolling, like. I 409 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: don't tend to forget where I am, um, you know, 410 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: especially if I'm not drinking, which I didn't really drink, 411 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: but it can be quite inappropriate that I can. They 412 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: don't provide you much alcohol in the house now, right 413 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: because I used to back in the day. Yeah, I think, 414 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: like you know, some of the European versions of it, 415 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's gotten drunk. Can they watch that 416 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 1: whole thing? It's a little bit more family friendly out here, 417 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: I think. So. I mean, I feel like Brandy Glanville 418 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: did find alcohol that wasn't even in the house, and 419 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: she's just a talent of hers really good at being 420 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: drunk all the time. Because you either hater, there's no 421 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: middle ground. I certainly wouldn't say I love her. Yeah. Well, yeah, y'all, 422 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: y'all had a little here's the thing. They made it 423 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: seem like there's some big tiff there, but I just 424 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: simply couldn't be bothered by her. She was never quick 425 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: enough to make it fun and it was just she 426 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: was there trying to get a ruse. I'm just oh, 427 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: this is this is cute, but I'm not really going 428 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: to do this because there's cameras rolling and this is 429 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: it tumpster fire.

She never 437 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: liked wanted to like get something out of me. She's 438 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: always good with you. Yeah, because of my mom.

I honestly feel like this next tour is 484 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: going to be even better. I think, well, we didn't 485 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: know what to expect. You know, we took a huge hiatus. 486 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: We came back independently as like, hey, let's just get 487 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: back together with ourselves and see if people still care. 488 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: And we were so blessed and so surprised. Some reason 489 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: people up. But you know now that we have that, Okay, 490 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: we beat our expectations last time. Now we're going into 491 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,719 Speaker 1: this summer's tour. They can't get up to going. How 492 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: do we How do we do this tenfold? I mean 493 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: really step it up from production to songs sadly with 494 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: it too, So I think that helps. Yeah, yeah, how 495 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 1: did it? Because you weren't hiatus for eight or ten 496 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: years at a year between. Who was the first to say, 497 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: you know what, let's do something again. There's little talks 498 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: all around. It was just finding the right timing, I think, yeah, 499 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: I mean who had said something Kendall wanted to. I 500 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: wanted to get back together a handful of times. It 501 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: was just different timing. And then I kept on saying no, yeah, 502 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: I was the hold, but I was busy. I was 503 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 1: busy doing my own project. So I wanted to make 504 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: sure that I got rid it, I got done with that. 505 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: None of us wanted to do it right at the top. 506 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I certainly wanted to go off and do 507 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: my own thing. It really was a timing thing. Yeah, 508 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: we needed a break. We did it for so many 509 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: you know, we didn't have a day off for you know, 510 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,959 Speaker 1: practically and then probably literally for years at a time, right, 511 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: And it was correct, but we certainly needed a break, 512 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: and that's given us such an amazing perspective and appreciation 513 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: this time around, having more fun. Now, we appreciate every moment. Now, 514 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: we'll never better equipped to handle relationship and balance the 515 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: work life as well. So it's sweet. It's true you 516 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: have to have a break to realize one what you 517 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: have and what's working and what's not working, uh, and 518 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: really put everything into perspective. And same thing happened with us. 519 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: You know, we went on our hiatus, which we're still 520 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: on and you know, and looking back, I'm like, god, yeah, 521 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: now I can see where we should have done this, 522 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: and we should have fought back on the label to 523 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: make us have a week break every once in a while. Yeah, 524 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: because that just makes you a better artist in the end, 525 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: because when you did have a day off. I wasn't 526 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: thinking about writing or anything to do with the group. 527 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: I was sleeping. Yea nothing, nothing, or I actually see 528 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: my parents again, you know that I haven't seen in 529 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,959 Speaker 1: a couple of months. But yeah, I think we were 530 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: were very worked hard. And I'm sure coming under a 531 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: big umbrella of like a Nickelodeon, I'm sure they worked 532 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: all because I know how Disney and Nickelodeon does with 533 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: their actors. I think we know what's going on. Yeah, 534 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: but it did. It also set us up, though, to 535 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: be the hardest workers in the room. Yeah. You know, 536 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: at the beginning, we didn't really know what we were 537 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: getting into, and we said yes to absolutely everything. But 538 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: we grew to have these incredible work ethics. Where you're 539 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: filming a single camera show that starts at six am 540 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: on Monday, goes twelve hours. Every subsequent day is longer 541 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: and longer and longer. You shoot through your Faturday, which 542 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: is a Friday going into Saturday, get a police escort 543 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: to the airport to go and fly and play a show, 544 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: do press, play another show, flight back. It sounds insane, 545 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: but it prepped us for as we're doing it now. 546 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: It's a no brainer. When you love what you do, 547 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: it's it's not work. So that's how we see it. Yeah, 548 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: so after you started the hiatus, what did you want? 549 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: Did you want to stay in music and do solo 550 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: stuff or did you want to just escape that and 551 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: do more just television. For me, I feel more into it. 552 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: I wanted to kind of explore even more so. Music 553 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: was was, you know, such a big passion. But I 554 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: had been learning up to that point, and now I 555 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 1: was like, you know, I want to see what I 556 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: can do on my own. So that was that was 557 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: a really special time for me to kind of do 558 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: that and get back into acting and and uh kind 559 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: of just like learn again. What was that process like? So, 560 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, you leave a group a success was a 561 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: big time rush to go, let's take a little I 562 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: want to do something solo. Do you use the same 563 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: crew that used a bit big time rush or did 564 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: you build your own world of people to work with? 565 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: I built my own. I thought it was really important 566 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: to kind of get away from the entire project, especially 567 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: because I wanted to do different kind of music, you know, 568 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 1: I wanted to explore and so um, yeah, I sought 569 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: out some different people, done tons of different sessions to 570 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 1: kind of figure out, oh what do I like and 571 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: what what do I groove with which Now we're actually 572 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: using a lot of the people that I used for 573 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: some of my solo work, so and they've been a 574 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: huge help to the band, and we couldn't be happier 575 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: to kind of all use what we've taken from these 576 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: last few years on our own and bringing them to 577 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: the bands. We have something to offer, and it's only 578 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: they the band grow even more exponentially. What about you, James, 579 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: I did do some of my own music and explore that, 580 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: but I really went head first in acting, you know, 581 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 1: and I've done a bunch of movies and some series. 582 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: I just had a movie come out last week, Stars 583 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: Fell Again, the rom com. There's a sequel, And I'm 584 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: grateful because to me to this day, I love having 585 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: my own personal outlet outside of the band, and I 586 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: love making my own music, and I DJ and do 587 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: some other more dance music and stuff on my own, 588 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: but acting and continuing to build that vertical and have 589 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: my own space outside of this as part of what 590 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: gives me that full fulfillment. So I can come back 591 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,479 Speaker 1: to BTR and well, don't you think that's what makes 592 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: the band better, that we all have our own things 593 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: going on, and you'll come back and everybody's grown not 594 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: only as like artists, but as vocalist confidence wise, as people. 595 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: That's really yeah, And it's made this process just a 596 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: lot smoother, right, Yeah, I agree. I mean with our group, 597 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: we all had just individual things going on on the side, 598 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: and I think that just made our brain turn off 599 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: a little bit so that we just didn't burn out 600 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: as much. You know, Chris was really heavy on starting 601 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: like a clothing line, and you know, I was heavy 602 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: on producing television and film, and it just made me 603 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: really be able to escape, Yeah, just for like a 604 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: little bit, you know. And and I think I would 605 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: have burned out a lot quicker if I didn't have 606 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: something like that to fall back on. Right. The other 607 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: stuff kind of keeps you grounded as well. Yeah, which, 608 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: speaking of keeping ground where's Dave Brown? Brown? How do 609 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: you know Dave Brown? That's our old tour manager. He 610 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: was back off. Well, well, we're still in our hiatus. 611 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: You can have him until we're off of our hiatus 612 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: and then get tickets to your show. Day was the 613 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: best on the road. I mean, he was kind of 614 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: just the I don't know, the calm one, the one 615 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: that actually, you know, could talk everyone down off the ledge, 616 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: which was one day. You know, I'm sure he has 617 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: always like a frantic but like he was always the 618 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: common sense, well in a in a weird way his 619 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: like I guess it keeps us grounded. Like he is 620 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: kind of so grumpy that nobody can be as grumpy 621 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: as it is. And that's what he's a straight shooter, yes, 622 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: and that's how it always brings us sandwiches. We're gonna 623 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: leave now, thank you, And it's been fun. I love it. 624 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: So this is why I like having like a couple 625 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 1: of people, because you can just riff off each other 626 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: and tell these stories that none of us know too long. 627 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: Um do you did you all get along the whole 628 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 1: entire time or did you rub each other the wrong 629 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: way every once in a while, because I don't know, sir, 630 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: ybody who says that it's a liar very true. Yeah, 631 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: it's listen, it's tough. I mean it's still tough. There 632 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: are we are four different personalities, and we all have 633 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: different ideas about how certain things should go. But I 634 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: think we try to keep respect and love at the forefront, 635 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: at the heart of this band, and I think that 636 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: always is what we fall back on and always kind 637 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: of gives us through the tough times. How did can 638 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: get enough come around? How Joe end up choosing that 639 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: one song? And Dall Kendall wrote that song in the studio, 640 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: you know it went through. That was a labor of love. 641 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: It took a long time to get that song right. 642 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: And I think we had shown you and Carlos versions 643 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: of it and go oh, I like it, but I 644 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: think this can be worked on, and I think we 645 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: went back into the sooon and worked on until everybody goes, yeah, 646 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: you know what this fits right? Messaging wise, the message 647 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: of the song, that was a huge part from me 648 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: about like, hey, we're going back out again. We just 649 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: did this huge summer tour in the US and now 650 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: we're about to do another one, which you know, normally 651 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: to take a year off and give some space. We 652 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: had so many fans it wanted to come that couldn't come. 653 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: The tickets sold out too quickly, so we know we 654 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: couldn't get enough of touring. The fans seem like they 655 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: can't get enough of us come back out there. So 656 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: just the conceptual idea of it seemed to make a 657 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: lot of sense. So it's tied in really well, and 658 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: it's a great first song, like as as an umbrella 659 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: over the rest of the music that we have that 660 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: kind of touches on stuff that we grew up listening to, 661 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: some of our favorite genres and that kind of stuff. So, 662 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: M yeah, I just seemed like the right choice. And 663 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: there he is, Dave, get over here. I have to 664 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: hear your voice on this show. I know he is 665 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: quite the voice too. Uh, Dave, you know our tour 666 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: manager for how many years? I don't even know. I 667 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: was just saying that you were kind of the only 668 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: voice of reason on the road. I think. Still, yeah, 669 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: you are you? I told I told him to us out. 670 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: You really do. So what's the biggest difference between in 671 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: Sync and Big Time Rush on the road? Nothing? Nothing? 672 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: Just wow, we're that cool? Yeah? Okay, wow? What about 673 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: a big Time Rush in sync tour? Together? Absolutely? I'm 674 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: with it. Did we get this on camera? Great audio? 675 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: Everybody say, I I but which which band is your favorite? Though? 676 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: All of them paying the salary right now? Okay? Three eleven? Wow, 677 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 1: zero zero. I love it because you know, when we 678 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: were on the road. Uh. I think it was a 679 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: lot easier because there was no social media, and you know, 680 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: we were it's having a good time and we could 681 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: get away with murder, I think. But now on the 682 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: road you can't really get away with a lot of 683 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: things that we did back in the day. We still try. 684 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,239 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean we don't try. Yeah, yeah, I think 685 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: social media is h it's too crazy now you can't 686 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: do anything. Yeah. Well, Dave, it's so good to see you. Yeah, 687 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: it's so good to see No, we need to have 688 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: you on. Is just a guest to give us, like 689 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: the real stories that we've heard. I mean the stories 690 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: that I don't even know, like these guys on tour, 691 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: you know that kept it from us, right, But now 692 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: that we're mature enough to understand, I'd like to know, 693 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: like the real shit that went down. Yeah, David, what 694 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: was it like touring with Elvis exactly? I'd like to 695 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: get some tips from you guys, because this is called 696 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: frosted tips for the relationships everyone, especially on tour, you 697 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: have to deal with long distance relationships. How do you 698 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: make it happen? I feel like we can both answer 699 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: that one pretty well. My girlfriend is English and Swedish, 700 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: and so it makes it very very tough, you know. 701 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: We I think it's important to build a good foundation 702 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: in the very beginning of knowing somebody, and trust is 703 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: really big for me, not even just with you know, 704 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: that type of relationship with family, with friends, that's always 705 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: something that's been really really big for me. So I think, 706 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, trust is one of those things and you 707 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: do have to you have to work at it. You 708 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,239 Speaker 1: have to kind of go the extra mile to make 709 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: sure the other one feels special. And it's hard whenever 710 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: it's like, what have you been doing? The time zone 711 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: has become crazy, it's like you really kind of have 712 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: to fill them in on your life, and even if 713 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: it's a small little text or a quick call, it 714 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: makes all the difference. Well, and we all make an 715 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: effort to fly them out to see us on the road. 716 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: If we're gonna be gone for months at a time, 717 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: you know, I Caitlin and I my girlfriend, I really 718 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: try not to go more than two weeks. We're about 719 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: to go to South America. I've been on the road 720 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: already for a few weeks, so this is one of 721 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: those few times it's actually going like three weeks and 722 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: a day and then another three weeks. And that's a 723 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: little a little long if we can help it. But 724 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: she understands, and I understand. You know, she's building her 725 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: business at home and I'm out here working doing our job. 726 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: And when she's gone, I took you in. That's true. 727 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: Make you have each other. It's very sweet.

Oh, it's so nice. 729 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: All right, Before I let you go, we have some 730 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: fan questions for you guys.
