Starting point is 00:00:00 If there is anybody listening to this Patreon episode from the dad tier, I just want to say congratulations. You're a fucking granddad. Baby Sloss has arrived. I do not talk about the subject too much on this podcast because it's Daniel's business and it's his story to tell. So I kind of just brush over it and he's going to get on soon once he's all settled in and shit.
Starting point is 00:00:20 I'm dead excited for him. I'm dead proud of him. Yeah, so I'm going to pop and see the bear in the night. All his family's been visiting and I've been just waiting in the wings for the call-up. So I'm going to pop round and see the bear and probably report back on that, but I'll leave all the storytelling to Daniel.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Don't expect anything like that from this episode. But what you can expect, a lot of laughs between me and Mark Nelson and our special guest, Tom Horton, who joins the fold to talk about music festivals school sports days, just a bunch of fucking, like we're going off on some wild tangents

Starting point is 00:01:56 on the video you can see him hello and I feel like we've got a little clash of worlds here going on haven't we
Starting point is 00:02:02 yeah I feel like we might dance things with. I feel like... My dancing's a wolf. I feel like we would never have met, Tom, outside of comedy, would we? Running different circles. Maybe if I'd found myself backstage
Starting point is 00:02:17 at a festival sometime, but not really. Well, I'm in the St. John's and you've ord, I'm in the St. John's and you've OD'd and killed. So for anybody that doesn't know, we've mentioned you before, we've had the other podcast before, we've got a few new followers.
Starting point is 00:02:37 You live in the Tower of London. I think the only time I'd have come across you is if you'd enacted that old law where British lords are allowed to come up and sleep with Scottishottish men's wives on the night of their wedding you ever seen that in braveheart this happens in braveheart that's what kicks off a shitload of stuff in braveheart a lord comes up and basically steals a guy's wife on his wedding night takes her in a tent that was just a law that the british imposed on the the sc Yeah, the English.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I can't remember what it's called, but it was like a divine right of a lord. And could you only do it in a Scottish man's wife? Or could you do it in a... I used to. Could you go out of Wales and... I'm pretty sure the Welsh. Have a pop with a Welshman's wife.
Starting point is 00:03:17 But there was no... Nobody really... There was no incentive to do it. That law was just a formality. Nobody enacted that law. I'm now in my head just cycling through which one of your wives i wanted to which one will i go with he's not scott you wouldn't get away with him he's anguish oh yeah even though my wife's scottish doesn't matter yeah but he's northern surely i can just yeah second base or something you're allowed to finger me wave
Starting point is 00:03:43 in a court of law not in a court of law but in a court of law around the back of the court of law the court bins you're allowed to finger me wave around the court bins that's like a proper stand-up trope isn't it behind the bins behind the bins why is it always behind the bins fingering behind the bins yeah it's never like in the fire escape or like in the lift it's always behind the bins
Starting point is 00:04:09 aye it's the most grotty I wouldn't have I wouldn't have any like hack British comedians went over to America and done that

Starting point is 00:04:58 and they'd have the high jump mats that you'd chill out on aye you guys used to chill out on high jump mats that don't be hard I got I got
Starting point is 00:05:06 sand I got thrown in the sand pit when it was full of water yeah water water water water
Starting point is 00:05:13 I we did have like there was like a shed that was full of like you know hula hoops and bean bags and shit that you'd use
Starting point is 00:05:22 in sports like crisps and this was a fair school and then Scott Bennett Scott Scott the shop Scott Bennett was always hula hoops and beanbags and shit that you'd use in sports. Like crisps. And this was a fair school. It's called a shop. Scott Bennett was always gigging in it. Fucking niche joke. Yeah, how niche are this audience?
Starting point is 00:05:39 Are they going to get that joke? It's a patron episode. They're full of comedy. A lot of them are comedy fans and that. Yeah, some of them are a fans and that Yeah Some of them do Some of them Some of them are a bit more casual Did you do There was a certain point Where
Starting point is 00:05:49 Sports day at school You got to do Athletics I say athletics Like track and field But you don't know What like Your leg tight
Starting point is 00:05:58 At one of your Well that makes us like Previous to that Was shit Three legged race Well like Willy wangling I mean whatever that is in your school, Tom.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Welly-wangling. You know, when the legs are off, you do a bit of welly-wangling. Yeah, you get a biscuit out, you get in a circle. Do you know, when I was... Because you had that... You know the three-legged race where you tie each other's legs together
Starting point is 00:06:21 and then you'd have, like, egg and spoon. You run in there. You had a sack race where you're supposed to... each other's legs together and then you'd have like egg and spoon you run and you know a sack race where you're supposed to you're on a hessian sack and you fucking launch them when I was about maybe about eight
Starting point is 00:06:32 I fucking ripped this race right like won it easily at the school and I died got a hole in the bottom of the hessian sack like Fred Flintstone
Starting point is 00:06:43 my dad accused me my dad went up to the teachers and accused me of cheating i just was incredibly good at that yeah i was good at that discipline one of the dads was like, nah, nah, not the Nelson boy. I can't believe I'd done it in 9.8. You're the only white kid in the final. Like, nah, not having it. Not having it.
Starting point is 00:07:16 He's up to something like, he's took the potatoes out. He's took the, the rest of the kids have got the potatoes still in. I, I held my school pole vault record for a year. Wow. Because, get this, it was the first year we ever did pole vault.
Starting point is 00:07:31 So it was actually lower than the high jump record. The pole vault record was lower than the high jump record. Yeah, I held it for a year. So you beat the kid that was encumbered by the stick. Yeah. Like there was a kid in your class that kind of went right i could beat that if i just drop this yeah i don't know if if you did the pole vault like genuinely in the olympics right and halfway through running you dropped the
Starting point is 00:07:57 stick and still got out of the bar would you still get the i don't see why not i don't know i'm not sure you would. Is the leg marks on how you do it? Yeah, I think so. That's like going if you just run around the hurdles, isn't it? I guess... Is it, though? Because the law for running around the hurdles would be in
Starting point is 00:08:17 because they need it. Yeah. Whereas they'd never feel like they needed the if you drop the pole and just fly over the bar. The Frosby flop. The Frosby flop was a hell of a thing do you remember first hearing about the frosby flop i wonder if i wonder if you reckon he invented it or do you reckon he was the one that stole the thunder of it do you reckon there was somebody like cal dig i don't know davis or something in his class that did it And nobody wants Kyle at the Davis flop
Starting point is 00:08:45 The Davis dip Aye But then Frosty come along Done it on the world stage Yeah Yeah Any way Was he just
Starting point is 00:08:53 Trying and shitting At the Olympics It's good Like Good legacy Getting something Named after you Especially
Starting point is 00:09:00 Like the Cruyff turn The Nelson sack Nobody Nobody ever Assumes Nobody ever Ass assumes it's about the potato bag race. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The thing is, it's my boss. It's definitely your ball bag. He's got the Nelson sack.
Starting point is 00:09:20 The Starling, it just becomes a medical condition. Let's play a self-probe. It's turned brown and scratchy. There's roots coming out of it. It's actually a potato. It's actually a potato. Tastes good in a stew. The Irish love it.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Imagine that. You know, you've got bay leaves to flavour stuff but you need to take them out before you serve it my balls were like that Michelin star restaurants I've just got to dip my balls in for 5 minutes then they remove them with a spatula
Starting point is 00:09:59 and then serve it up you're wanting Helsinki we've got a delicate so anyway Nelson Sacks when your bowels make good stock for a stew and you're wanted around the world but there's only one of you
Starting point is 00:10:16 everyone's keeping an eye on your Seamus is he going to block him like he's da? Is he going to have such a resilience to boiling water like he's da? Trying him out in cold soups. Like a spatula. Like a spatula. a gazpacho a gazpacho
Starting point is 00:10:43 well that took a turn didn't it that took a turn staying on sports is a loose theme me and Tom last night got drunk and watched one watched the halftime show
Starting point is 00:11:02 which I've been looking forward to watching I didn't want to do the service of watching it on my phone or just watching it in passing yeah like i'm a fucking massive eminem dr dre snoop dogg like that fucking generation of rappers i think um so for me that was like you know if you could pick your dream team of like who is going to be on like a on a spectacle yeah it'd be like a wardshow or a halftime show something like that right that would have been main apart from i would have probably jse was in the audience wasn't he on like a on a spectacle yeah whether it be like an award show or a halftime show something like that right that would have been main apart from
Starting point is 00:11:27 I would have probably Jay-Z was in the audience wasn't he Jay-Z was Jay-Z and Beyonce were in there what a fucking travesty that he was in the audience
Starting point is 00:11:34 watching Kendrick Lamar yeah like how would he yeah I I agree I mean Kendrick Lamar I just reckon is the generation below us
Starting point is 00:11:42 I for me like I'm sure I made sure of my age I felt like they got a YouTuber in and just went oh that'll be for the kids even us i for me like i'm sure it may show my age i felt like they got a youtuber in and just went oh that'll be for the kids even though it's not like he probably appeals to 30 year olds but i agree i'd have had a taken nelly and i'd taken exhibit and i think an ll cool j oh man fucking ll cool j was on that would have been awesome amazing that was a quite a good bit because i didn't know because I saw the there was a video
Starting point is 00:12:05 because I mean the halftime show is incredible like it's a huge it's like 15 million 50 million dollars or something to put it all together
Starting point is 00:12:12 and because the adverts as well that's like the most expensive ad space aye because everybody's everybody's watching
Starting point is 00:12:20 so it's normally just massive Hollywood it's normally just Marvel that can afford it to be honest Marvel and Disney and it's like it is probably not. It's normally just Marvel that can afford it, to be honest. Marvel and Disney. And it's probably not redeeming what you've paid for it.
Starting point is 00:12:30 It's probably dick swinging. If you buy that advertising space, you're not going to get your money back in sales, I bet. No, of course not. But you've got the prestige. Do you reckon if you did advertise your fringe show on the Super Bowl, do you reckon you actually would get a shot in tickets? I'd probably still be outside hustling on a upshot I'd probably still be outside hustling on a Wednesday I'd probably still be there
Starting point is 00:12:47 hustling on a Wednesday like maybe the kids would be full yeah but also it's so unnecessary it is dick swing because it's so unnecessary
Starting point is 00:12:55 because I'm not going to gain any like nobody's going to be sitting there watching the Superbowl and suddenly go Doctor who? Doctor Strange?
Starting point is 00:13:02 that looks interesting like my this Lord of the Rings is something I've not come across before you know Doctor who? Doctor Strange? That looks interesting Like My This Lord of the Rings Is something I've not Come across before You know Fucking
Starting point is 00:13:10 If you're going You're going That's not gonna Thank god I watched the football Yeah Yeah So So weeks before
Starting point is 00:13:17 They released a trailer And the trailer was just as Hyped up as anything And it was basically Doctor Dre putting that team together So he He was Because it was basically Dr. Dre putting that team together. So he was, because it was held in LA, and that was going to be like a celebration of Dr. Dre and a celebration of Compton and all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:35 So I think he specifically picked Kendrick Lamar. Did he? And he too had worked at Eminem when I saw him in Bill Huston. Oh, did he? Aye. When I went to the Glasgow one, he was opening for him there. Aye. And he's featured on his album as well. Aye. at Eminem when I saw him in Bill Huston when I went to the Glasgow one he was opening for him there aye and he's featured on his album
Starting point is 00:13:46 as well aye so yeah I mean I think Kendrick Mars looked at as fucking 50 cent was a plump
Starting point is 00:13:52 old unit wasn't he he was more one dollar wasn't he yeah fucking hell because I was
Starting point is 00:13:59 talking to my wife actually about whether that was all muscle or whether it was it was in his face it was in his face you could tell he was like was all muscle or whether he'd it was a it was in his face it was
Starting point is 00:14:05 in his it was in his face you could tell he was like he's breath he's been having a birthday where's the buffet? I genuinely thought it was bizarre from D12 when I first saw it, and it came down. But you know what? I was a bit chuffed for him when I saw him. It's like saying, enjoy your friends.
Starting point is 00:14:33 You know what? He's just got a good lad, man. Fucking hell. You've been in your fucking premier life. You've been in front of the public eye. Lass has loved you. Fucking go and enjoy your retirement. Aye.
Starting point is 00:14:44 What about that? I mean, him took the knee. Aye. Fucking go and enjoy your retirement. Aye. What about that? Eminem took the knee. Aye. That was, because that was, because there was rumours that he was, because there was rumours that it was going to be a Tupac hologram
Starting point is 00:14:53 as well during California Love. Aye, that would have been nice. He took the knee at the same time that Dr. Dre played I Ain't Mad at Ship. Yes. Which was a Tupac song. So that was, people are arguing whether or not he took it the knee for Tupac song so that was people are arguing
Starting point is 00:15:05 whether or not he took it to the knee for Tupac or for Colin Kaepernick sort of it was an American football game where it all began so it came in
Starting point is 00:15:12 either way I thought it was quite symbolic that like the only white guy up there during the first time that rap has been represented at Super Bowl took the knee
Starting point is 00:15:20 apart from apart from Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny who who absolutely fucking crowbarred himself
Starting point is 00:15:27 onto the J-Lo line up like how the fuck did he get that gig Bad Bunny the Puerto Rican rapper was like
Starting point is 00:15:34 yeah yeah was that the silver bloke I guess so because I was like can you not remember I went on Siri I just
Starting point is 00:15:41 I'm gonna end up fucking setting it off new way we'll record and I was like hey Siri I just I'm gonna end up fucking setting it off knew we were recording I was like hey Siri I was like psst psst
Starting point is 00:15:50 Siri and it's setting off everyone's at home when I do it now I was just like who the fuck's that bloke that's crowbarred he's so fun
Starting point is 00:15:56 to the jib I spoke like a protagony in Siri I was like oh you mean bad bunny actually come up the answer
Starting point is 00:16:02 it did I saw it but it was the first hip-hop it was the first hip-hop first rap yeah like complete rap representation in superbowl so it was a big moment yeah it was cool yeah and you now find well there's gonna be like fucking boomer cunts just watching our rap music more like bloody crap music oh yeah i did it's really going on social media and watch the different sites like tiktok were sort of these guys are clearly legends but they didn't get it because they're younger instagram going mental and then facebook were all like what is this rubbish yeah it's all the the social media now so generational depending on which one you go through
Starting point is 00:16:40 they're running out of people like this is this problem. As far as legends you mean? Yeah because this is a problem like I read I remember an article about five years ago this was five years ago about music festivals in Britain genuinely running out of people to have as headliners because the
Starting point is 00:16:59 bands that are massive to young people now don't really get massive through albums. So they don't have that back catalogue to headline a show. We're literally about to see a YouTuber headline Glastonbury. Yeah, I mean, it's like,
Starting point is 00:17:12 because I remember that. KSI. Yeah, I remember that your Nicki Minaj did Tea in the Park. And people were going, who the fuck? Because she'd literally had one song. And that's what it'll be.
Starting point is 00:17:24 It'll be like, because there's, that's what it'll be it'll be like because there's that's why when people moan about oh for fuck's sake are they getting the foo fighters they get the co-play again they're getting kings of leon again you go but the only people that have 20 songs who that they can do could you even who's the most recent person of that caliber do you think you could name who's got that now back catalogue legendary status probably Ed Sheeran
Starting point is 00:17:47 as much as it pains me to say yeah but where everybody knows her songs Adele Adele yeah
Starting point is 00:17:53 she's but I often wonder what it's like Gaga Gaga definitely oh definitely oh yeah I'd say she's another
Starting point is 00:18:00 level behind like she's before Ed Sheeran I wonder how like because I didn't I've never seen Adele live I've like another level behind like she's before Ed Sheeran I wonder how like because I didn't I've never seen Adele live
Starting point is 00:18:08 like Ed Sheeran I've watched Ed Sheeran live and I can I can get how people could get because he's got
Starting point is 00:18:14 he's got upbeat songs he's got bits that you'd go right this is the bit where folk can go mental because that's half the fun of a headline set people go fucking mental
Starting point is 00:18:23 yeah but where is the adele mental bit like who's standing there i hope i really hope she plays sex i hope she plays that one push your phone's a to moan i really hope she plays that one and who's going mentally where are the fireworks coming during adele do you know what i mean like uh yeah with the exception of rolling in the deep is about as close as she gets but yeah you're right we were
Starting point is 00:18:49 because we watched back over the over the years last night when we were having a drink and we ended up because we were like
Starting point is 00:18:55 oh that's never going to be topped and then you go back and you're like fuck man like as a spectacle JLo and Shakira topped it
Starting point is 00:19:01 it was almost like they fucking spent their budget getting a billionaire headphone morgue out of bed yeah as a visual spectacle it didn't have anything on that and then fucking and Shakira topped it. It was almost like they fucking spent that budget getting a billionaire headphone mogul out of bed. Yeah, yeah. Because as a visual spectacle
Starting point is 00:19:07 it didn't have anything on that and then fucking we saw the Coldplay one and that as a visual spectacle was fucking phenomenal. I tell you, what was amazing as well that Chris Martin was there,
Starting point is 00:19:16 like the lead man, he was there with Bruno Mars and Beyonce and he was the one who was like the centre stage. They had the magnetism towards him,
Starting point is 00:19:24 like it was like Beyonce had, you point out, Beyonce had a magnetism towards him. It was like Beyonce had... You point out Beyonce had a hand on Chris Martin and then he flung his hand up. Beyonce was like hanging off him. She kept that. As if she was like, I kind of believe I'm fucking next to this guy.
Starting point is 00:19:35 I think I've took for granted how prestigious that man is because he's the subject of a lot of ridicule. People find it cool to mock him or fucking take the piss out of him. But if you've seen him live or if you see the show that he puts on or the way he's just in his music and he's just there in his music, he's fucking such a good performer. And the three of them did their big hits and the final one, he just sits down on piano and plays Fix You.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Yeah. And the entire crowd, everyone knows the words. And it's a song i've never like decided to listen to i've never chosen to listen to fix you but i know every word yeah i'm gonna go as far as saying i think it puts you in muggle corner if you hate coldplay as a personality trait yeah i hate coldplay no i don't hate coldplay at all i really quite like Coldplay but my brother loves them like they're my brother's favourite band so I keep up the pretense of
Starting point is 00:20:30 and the attitude of hating everything they do and I constantly my brother is the easiest person to wind up possibly so anytime I put like Facebook comments about playlists and he puts a
Starting point is 00:20:41 he puts a Coldplay thing I find like the most obscure meme of somebody falling asleep and just go and he goes mental immediately like he doesn't just go mental on facebook he goes mental at me and text as well he's like what fuck is your problem like it's like he texted he texted off the pitch that's when the text comes after, like, if you're in the WhatsApp group and then a text comes, you're like, it's like being pulled to one side, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah. That's amazing. Did you ever see them headlining a festival? Copley? Yeah, I've seen them headlining a few festivals. Because you were going to bring up the wristbands before. Yeah, yeah. I was telling Tom about that last night
Starting point is 00:21:25 So if anyone doesn't know They fucking They put a wristband on you Like throughout the day You just wait on the festival And they just pop your wristband on Wear that during Coldplay's set You've got this fucking wristband on
Starting point is 00:21:36 And then it lights up during the set And you're like Oh cool it's fucking Lights up But is it GPS Depending on where you are on the field Yeah it makes a light Basically makes a light show in the crowd So it depends on where you are though the field? Yeah, it basically makes a light show in the crowd.
Starting point is 00:21:45 So it depends on where you are, though. Yeah. Because, like, if I'm a colour over here, it could be a different part of the rainbow over there. Yeah. And that's fucking... The fact I put that lad in, and I just turn it up and fucking have him sing a song,
Starting point is 00:21:55 like, they're going, right, we're going to get every fucking element of this. I mean, I do. Like, I probably appreciate a band that will put on a show. Like, there's, like... I mean, it depends. Certain band that'll put on a show like there's like I mean it depends certain bands
Starting point is 00:22:08 can just go on and do it live and just the attitude carries them through but have you ever seen
Starting point is 00:22:16 ever seen a Rammstein gig fuck me you know Rammstein the heavy metal it sounds like a download festival type download festival yeah the heavy
Starting point is 00:22:26 metal german industrialist heavy metal band the massive and they come on and they've got like big massive devils spewing on people and they've got like light shows and flames the guy was the guy used to be a giant squid vagina so it's fucking insane i watch bowling for soup once and they they've got a thing where every gig they do they inflate this massive big testicle and dip it in the soup yeah just teabag the entire audience with a massive actually i like to mention that because that lawsuit's still going on for them for them using my likeness so they just bring on playful sheep like they're on a stag do yeah yeah and then that's the whole thing and then
Starting point is 00:23:18 they pretend to fuck it a bit and then they pass it around the audience they pretend to fuck it they play mostly with 13 year old girls in our life just me in the middle Bowling for Soup they were one of those fucking late
Starting point is 00:23:31 post Blink 182 bands was Girl the Bad Guys Want yeah do you know do you not like that I don't
Starting point is 00:23:39 I don't mind that song I hate do you know what they weren't that bad it was the ones that were kind of ska kind of ska kind of a real big fish
Starting point is 00:23:47 oh fucking cunts with pork pie hots on and Hawaiian shirts this is going to sound like a lie because he's not on the podcast to defend his self
Starting point is 00:23:55 but Daniel Sloss went to see Nickelback with his ma yeah yeah yeah he does yeah it sounds like a slam it sounds like oh he's not here
Starting point is 00:24:03 I'll just make some a go with him but I'm going to look down at the camera and tell you the God's honest truth, Daniel Sloss went to watch Nickelback with his ma. It's not even the worst of her. And when they went, look at this photograph, he put his glasses on.
Starting point is 00:24:17 And he's craning his neck. Pulled his shoulder out doing a guitar It's not by far the worst Of our group of friends That have ever gone to a gig It was Gareth that went to see Run the Jewels with our agent
Starting point is 00:24:35 Was in the disabled section With his agent She'd put her knee out Jumping off a boat And she was on crutches and she said as Gareth do you want tickets

Starting point is 00:41:35 It's, I don't think you, yeah, I think you just bring what you bring. It's a barter and kind of. It's not an actual place. It just, it only gets erected for the festival
Starting point is 00:41:42 and it's in the middle of nowhere. You take a peyote and find your inner person your spirit animal there's actually I made a joke about the orgy

Starting point is 00:43:20 Is it on the... It was right... It was literally 50 miles from where I grew up because the wicker man film was
Starting point is 00:43:28 filmed where in the wicker man film is it it's not the isle of sky
Starting point is 00:43:33 it's a fictional island in the film but it was filmed around about
Starting point is 00:43:39 Dumfries and Galloway where I grew up and there was a festival that they
Starting point is 00:43:43 started and they would burn a wicker man at the end of it like and they would burn a wicker man at the end of it like a huge fucking

Starting point is 00:44:08 self-produced movies wow glad that didn't have a sad end in that story that was really uplifting I added that
Starting point is 00:44:17 detail just in case any of you think we're going yeah around the world just sweeping them off the
Starting point is 00:44:24 harder better faster stronger I think this may be the last year folks but let's go bang there's a proclaimer you know what I think
Starting point is 00:44:40 one of the ones that I look back and go I wish I'd done that but I think it may be a young man's game and I'd probably be like someone's dad turned up if I didn't know. I may be wrong,
Starting point is 00:44:48 but that Tomorrowland, the one that was in the Netherlands. I don't know that. It's like just fucking like dance music. Yeah, I think I've seen Tomorrowland. I think because I got into dance music quite, and I'm not, I wouldn't say into it because I'm not into it. I couldn't tell you what genre was what. Like I'm very much a fucking no got into dance music quite, and I'm not, I wouldn't say into it
Starting point is 00:45:05 because I'm not into it. I couldn't tell you what genre was what. Like, I'm very much a fucking noob with dance music. But you know, when we started that playlist on Spotify, which you can find, by the way,
Starting point is 00:45:13 it's called Filthy Bangers. You can go on to Filthy Bangers. I open it up every now and again so that you, Danny and Gareth, can add to it. And every now and again, one of the subscribers
Starting point is 00:45:23 just fucking puts in a bunch of shit. Yeah. So I didn't keep it open. Yeah. For for very long i had to go through and clean it because it started getting shit yeah there was some otter shite on it there's some otter shite but anything with a drop you know when you're you know when you're just like drunken on pills at a fucking house party or whatever and you put like weed and clonopin on yeah right and then that fucking build up and that build up and that build up and that drop yeah i i've been absolutely fucking like blamed to how good that is for all my life into my 30s and then i get into my 30s and i'm like that drops are sick yeah i never
Starting point is 00:45:57 felt them before suddenly we're at your wedding in ibiza and drops are the main thing and uh i but uh so i'm like oh i, I wish I'd been to like that kind of festival new, but I do feel like I'd be like an old head at one of them festivals. Yeah. Yeah. So when you look to the, I know it was a travesty and everything, but the, was it the future?
Starting point is 00:46:20 What was the one where Travis Scott and everyone got squashed? Oh yeah. I looked at that and went, that just looks like the most horrendous situation ever. Ah, and he got, like, accused of doing a satanic ritual thing. Yeah, that guy. Which I think was, like, I'm sure he wasn't, like, deliberately ignoring people dying,
Starting point is 00:46:36 but, like, I just looked at that and just looked overcrowded and I was like, the old man in me went, I don't think I could do that anymore. I was at a game on Sunday where it got stopped because somebody was having an incident. Yeah, I think I watched it. You I was at a game on Sunday where it got stopped because somebody was having an incident in the audience
Starting point is 00:46:47 it was a weird feeling in the crowd because you're watching the game and then all of a sudden there's just whistling
Starting point is 00:46:56 like high pitched whistling coming from one stand and everybody's like pointing in a specific direction and it just takes you a little while
Starting point is 00:47:02 to register what's happening and then you start trying to get the what's happening and then you start trying to get the ref's attention and all and everybody in the fucking pit
Starting point is 00:47:08 everyone in the stadium is trying to get the fucking ref's attention to stop the game and then you just see all the like fucking paramedics going up
Starting point is 00:47:13 and then you're just like I just went to the toilet and all that I was like fuck this is weird I've come there's a few times I've come close to that
Starting point is 00:47:20 proper crushing it festivals really like it is it's terrible like I did Reading years and years ago and it was like the Sunday I've come close to that proper crushing it festivals really like it is it's terrible like I did Reading years and years ago and it was
Starting point is 00:47:28 like the Sunday was it's like Foo Fighters Rage Against the Machine Slipknot Limp Bizkit and I remember doing Limp Bizkit getting it
Starting point is 00:47:38 getting really fucking like proper like because because mosh bits are made it crushes everyone else yeah and then i did that was when you could still crowd surf it was still a thing and i did it during range against machine and i got passed over and i got thrown like that how does crowd surfing band it's just
Starting point is 00:47:57 not done anymore it's not it's just not uh not acceptable anymore and then I got thrown and landed in a gap that had been created and landed on the top of my head so I basically went with that and knocked myself out
Starting point is 00:48:11 and the next thing I know like I'd been dragged across the barriers and put in the medical tent and just came to and that's so sad yeah Jesus straight back up again
Starting point is 00:48:20 yeah I nearly drowned at a phone party did you? In like a big gay club. Just drowning in cock. Yeah. But because foam,
Starting point is 00:48:36 the foam, what your natural, when you're out of breath, your natural instinct is to go up and go like that. But obviously that's where all the foam's coming from. So you should go down to like, the air's all down there but i went and just inhaled and it was like this guy's fucking loving it
Starting point is 00:48:54 this guy's got a terrible gag reflex i'm not into that we um my brother stag do we're in magaluf we went to a water party So it's like a phone party But they just fucking fill the place Yeah With water So you're walking about And it seems a great laugh But like
Starting point is 00:49:13 As I was kind of We'd been in there for about three hours And I was kind of sobering up And kind of looking back and going This is fucking disgusting How funny Like I looked at one of my pal One of my brother's pals
Starting point is 00:49:24 And he was just standing there taking a piss of course he was pissing this water that everyone was just squishing about those fucking bottles passing you
Starting point is 00:49:31 and you're going you know what that reminds us of you know it used to be in swimming pools where you had to fucking step in
Starting point is 00:49:37 this weird foot yeah remember they had that just unhygienic just body of water that you had to step in before you went
Starting point is 00:49:43 in the pool yes there's a plaster in it yeah unhygienic just body of water that you had to step in before you went in the pool yes yeah there's a plaster in it yeah and you say yeah if you've got a verruca then just pass it on
Starting point is 00:49:51 yeah give it to the next guy fucking gross that that was before my time because I now that used to happen when I was a kid but
Starting point is 00:50:00 not when I was a lifeguard not on your not on your watch as soon as I was a lifeguard. Not on your watch. As soon as I become a lifeguard. Did the phone party have a lifeguard? Do you know who was there? The Ladyboys of Bangkok. It was Brighton and they were in the gay club.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Wow. So I was just drowning in this phone while the Ladyboys of Bangkok were dancing around me. What do they do? What do they do? What do they do? In the show? Because they're at the Fringe every year. They're like a huge staple of the Fringe.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Probably the biggest ticket sellers. Daniel Sloss will try and argue with our wives, but however, Danny, let them have it. So it's like a big cabaret night. But the annoying thing is they sing like show tunes and stuff but they they mime it
Starting point is 00:50:49 they don't actually sing which is a really that was sad for me because I was expecting I wanted to see them banging out the actual vocals but
Starting point is 00:50:57 they don't it's just it's literally just sort of flattered about them that's genuine nothing do they get
Starting point is 00:51:06 they don't get how do they whip that dick soon no there no and so it's all
Starting point is 00:51:14 just implied yeah it's very heavily implied like there's there's some there's some cracking Adam's apples on show
Starting point is 00:51:20 is that why the main parts would drop through yeah and they get they get like a blo parts would drop through and they get they get like a bloke up on stage
Starting point is 00:51:27 and they'll you know they'll dance around him and strip they'll like do sexy dancing it's really
Starting point is 00:51:32 genuinely like the majority of the audience are all like hen parties and groups of women it's cabaret
Starting point is 00:51:39 it's always the same dudes like do you mean is it like a touring show what do you mean is it like a touring show well you mean is it like a tom and kitten what time we go that week the rotating like but they must like i think they
Starting point is 00:51:53 have like the touring i think they have the the you know the lads for one because you need to be is it like like cercle de soleil you surely you have to audition for that to become part of the main, but then like the Cirque du Soleil that come here to Britain, would they be the same Cirque du Soleil that do the Vegas? I think it's a bit like,
Starting point is 00:52:14 you'd have like the touring version, you'd have a residency version. And I remember in the cast, like you'd have, they had one who did an act where it was an older one who was like doing like an old school cabaret song where it was an older one who was like uh doing like an old school cabaret song was like ah he used to be this but now i'm there and so i think there is like an age
Starting point is 00:52:33 range that goes through it and then you have to like i'm the young new one and yeah i mean it's a whole it's a whole cast on a whatsapp group i didn't really enjoy as soon as you get over like right it's that's the not that's the sort of novelty and then you go okay if they were singing it'd be better but because it's miming it really like that doesn't really they're just like i'll just go and inhale some foam yeah instead bored choking on phones no joke it really is imagine what it is as well because it's it's not it won't even be like it won't even be like choking on foam is no joke it really is yeah I bet I bet I can imagine what it is as well
Starting point is 00:53:06 because it's it's not it won't even be like it won't even be like bath foam it's quite dry and it's quite sort of you can feel the soapy
Starting point is 00:53:14 sun it must be like insulation yeah it's not because it needs to stay firm almost you know like in bath foam
Starting point is 00:53:20 the minute it touches your skin it'll eventually dissolve your throat dries that stuff fucking sits and like yeah it's horrible Jesus what other theme parties are there remember traffic light parties yeah that was weird wasn't it like oh no i'm not shagging i'm definitely shagging yeah you know what don't tell me that any bloke who wore a yellow one's like come on mate yeah that
Starting point is 00:53:40 was not being mysterious i know that was the complicated being mysterious I know that was the it's complicated Facebook status you know and people used to put it's complicated as a relationship status I mean that's what it's complicated look I've got options
Starting point is 00:53:51 I've got options you may be one of them it's fucking weird there was a thing we had in Glasgow called Shag Tag I've got a nightclub called Archaos
Starting point is 00:54:01 and you used to everyone would have like a number Yes And then there was A massive message board Yes I did this at uni Where you could go

Starting point is 00:56:17 your year in review like Spotify does but surely is TikTok not like that like if you're a dirty bastard and you watch a lot of I think realty is because it's outiktok not like that like if you're a dirty bastard and you watch a lot of i think really it's because it's out dog videos for me news so yeah so yeah the the for you page
Starting point is 00:56:31 on tiktok the algorithm picks up basically whatever videos you spend the most time watching it will then stick more of them on your for you page because julia my girlfriend when she came over and my for you page was just a bunch of like women with massive asses jiggling and i was like i don't know why it's doing this she's like i know it's doing this yeah yeah because i because i when i was like i remember what i watched one fucking snooker trick shot or something then that's all i get now you want a trick shot do you have a trick shot you want some john Virgo Jim Davison anyone next thing you know

Starting point is 00:57:51 So it was. In there, how you noticed the conversion in ticket sales for you to earn that? Did it have enough spake around about the time that the million hits?
Starting point is 00:58:01 Not a massive one, to be honest, but it's incrementally, it's growing. Yeah, it's growing. But the, honest but it's incrementally it's growing it's growing but the like it's definitely had an effect um we'll see i don't know ticket sales are still weird i think we're in a weird time for ticket sales you have got you can't talk about the tv thing that's i can't talk about it you can't talk explicitly explicitly but you can say that i can say i'm going on something i'm going on reality you've already recorded a reality tv show can you see what it's called no no otherwise
