This is Frosted Tips with Lance Bass and iHeartRadio Podcast. Hello, my little Peanuts, it's me your host, Lance Bass. This is Frosted Tips with Me Lance Bass and my co host Michael Turchin. Well, hello there, Turkey churching the most.
That's right, gobble gobble.
Gobble, It's almost Friday thirteenth, baby, And you know what that means.
Yes, it's our baby's birthday.
It's our birthday of our babies. We might have had them worn a couple of days only for this exact scenario Friday thirteenth. And I'm here's a problem though, Like I'm excited. Their thirteenth birthday is going to be on Friday thirteenth, right, So, and they're gonna be old enough to have spooky, scary Halloween Friday thirteenth, which is my jam. Which, by the way, we're already surrounding them by really scary stuff, so it just sensitizes them.
True, So what's bothering you about this?
They're just because they're two and they're not going to really under stand the significance of Friday the thirteenth.
Well, you're just gonna have to wait another year or two.
Well, it won't be Friday thirteenth. We gotta we gotta wait another what seven years or so? I don't know when. When is it every said.
When they turn thirteen. I know it's gonna be I know.
But there's gonna be one in between that, right, I mean, then there's a leapier thing going on. I don't believe here there's gonna be a leapier Doesn't that change things up a little bit? For everything?
I mean, if you're born in February.
I can't ever figure it out.
There's a leap year. There's gonna be a President's.
Day, don't there No? Oh, okay, we have a calendar in front of it.
Twenty twenty eight.
Twenty twenty eight will be the next one.
Okay, that's fine. That's five years.
Okay, see now that'll be perfect age for that.
Don't get your knickers in a twist.
So I'm just saying for the first one, it's kind of a wash because we can't do anything super scary. We're gonna do what we're doing this year. Okay, check this out our theme? Yes, chug a chugga too.
Two.
How cute is that is?
Yeah? It's so cute?
How cute out I get sugar to too. We're having this little place that they're just like, you know, one of those indoor gym. It's all candy, candy, candy, which, of course, when they were born, I'm like, they're not going to have sugar until they're five. That was whist and now we're doing their second birthday. It's just revolved around candy.
Yeah, so that's going to fores feed them sugar.
I mean it's Halloween and their birthday.
Hello, their birthday, they can have sugar.
And it's going to be a costume party, it is, the problem is we have so many costumes. I don't know which one they should wear to their actual birthday.
Well that's what happens when you order Eats Baby seven costumes for one year of Halloween.
Yeah, well, get used to it because it's going to be more next year. I think I want to put him in the teen Wolf costume because since they're so little, it's hard for them to wear wigs.
But it's not going to be really hot for him. Listen, I'm thinking about obviously he's me running around change the clothes.
Yeah, but it's like cut off jeans and a I don't know, some kind a T shirt.
You don't know. He doesn't know.
I haven't seen team in a while. And then she has a rainbow bright that might look really great.
Should be rainbow brighter. So she could be a girl and could be shared from Clueless. It could be Alice in Wonderland. You could be snow white. I mean that the possibilities are limitless.
There's too many, too many. So I'm super excited because you know, first birthday you they don't remember. Second they're really not gonna remember either. But at least we have some good pictures. Three and four, maybe you might have a slight memory of your birthday.
Especially four, especially four. Yeah, I remember a few early ones.
I don't know. If I don't have pictures, I just don't remember it these days, I just don't. My brain is just going.
It's just elderly, elderly.
I am elderly.
You have an elder brain.
I am geriatric. Come call you Jariffer now, Okay, gonna be your jar bear.
You can be my jar bear and jer bear bay sweet.
Also, we're starting to do something fun, So we have s club on today, and in a couple of weeks we're gonna have the We have the girls on. First, we're gonna have Joe, Rachel and Tina on, and then we're gonna have the boys come on, John and Brad. Brad it's not Brad Lee. I think it's just Brad Well.
I'm sure his birth name is Brad Lee.
I'm I just want to you know, if we're cool, we're friends. I'm just calling Brad and we're going Brad. Okay, it's Mad Brad. So we want to keep it interesting to see if they're actually paying attention. So you know that the little bite biography I give on everyone before we start, you know, we pull that from Wikipedia, and you know there's all the other places place together. A lot of times I'm pretty sure it's not true, although
they're very nice and they're like, oh yeah, that's all true. Well, I purposely am putting in really wrong things to see if they catch it. Okay, So listen out there, especially on today's episode and with the boys, I'm going to ask or tell everyone what they were influenced by musically, and it is probably not going to match what they really were. But let's see who's nice and just let it go and which ones are like so super excited. S Club seven now S Club there are five of them.
Now they're coming back on a reunion tour. They're finally coming to America in Canada for the first time ever touring.
Oh the first time. Yeah, well that I'll be exciting.
Super said they We've had so many people request them be on this show.
I know, And I never really grew up with S Club seven, Like I mean I was the age and everything, but for some reason, it just never like I just never was around it, so I didn't really know them. But like, but since you know this in the past few years, especially doing this podcast, like so many people ask about S Club seven, So I'm kind of excited.
Yeah, you know, I'm excited about what Halloween. I mean, it's just it. The season is here, I know, the best time of the year because you have just holiday.
I mean you forced birth for children to be born on No. Cover thirteenth. We got it. You like it?
And is that a problem?
No, it's great. I love it.
I just went to the first time. Okay, you know how they have universals Halloween har Nights, which is fun. We go every year. Well this year I just went last weekend to the Not Scary Farm at Nott's Berry Farm.
Was it not scary?
It was very scary.
I didn't go, y'all.
I have to say it because I went with Lisa Fox, yes who, because you know, she's a big radio DJ. She always gets tickets, so she brings the fam and she's the godmother of my godchild. So we brought Genevieve and the Pink Princess Wendy and doctor Steve and they took us to Not Scary Farm. Oh my gosh, I did not realize how much more scary Not Scary Farm
is than Universal Cool. It was, you know how they have the people out, the actors kind of running in the park, like shaking things in your face and just scaring the crap. Of course, Lisa, you know, our our favorite Lisa del Campo, she giggles. She went with us, and you know she's not really into getting scared too much. But everywhere we went, whatever haunted house we went in, just walking around the park, they went for her.
Because you could just pick you can tell if you're into scaring people. You could tell who the weak souls are. Well they Lisa, you weak soul?
You. I mean I felt bad for it. So a certain point, I'm like Okay, this she's gonna have a heart attack. And she said the next day she was so sore from screaming and tensing up all the time that she was just like she had had a workout. So if you want to lose some weight, just go to Not Scary for him. Yeah, but I have to say, compared to Universal, you know those people in the park trying to scare you, there were three actors to every guest.
It felt like they were EveryWare good. You could not take one step without someone just hitting you in the face with something.
It's like, what the sounds like? A fun night?
That was a good time. And then on top of that you get the fun roller coaster. Oh yeah, So I think that's going to be an annual thing that we start to do. Now, you know, do the Universal, but also do not Scary because it really gets you in the mood.
Ah. So both were doing adding another thing, doing their repertoire.
Yeah okay, and there's all other things that we're gonna do. I'm going to talk to you about that later.
Please do because I want to talk about some S club set. Okay, no, sorry, s.
Club All right, We're gonna start with of course, ladies a first, So we come back. We are going to have the new iteration of S Club seven. It's S Club with Joe, Rachel and Tina. Right after this, Hey.
Everyone, it's Sophia Bush, host of podcast Work in Progress. I am thrilled to tell you that Work in Progress is back for a third season. My friends, it has never been more important than right now for us to have all of these big conversations together. We are going to get educated, a little bit enlightened, and we will
definitely be entertained. I started Work in Progress because I'm a curious person, and I realized there are so many people I get to speak to that are fascinating and rare, and so I thought, why not take these conversations out into the world. I'm going to be having deep chats with thought leaders, newsmakers, celebrities, entertainers, authors, elected officials, and more. You can join us and listen to Work in Progress on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
All right, let's get going, shall we. S Club formerly known as S Club seven, are a British pop group formed in nineteen ninety eight. They originally comprised of Tina, Paul, John Bradley, Johannah and Rachel s. Club seven were formed by the former Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller, who signed them to Polydor Records. The band was heavily influenced by Iron Maiden and Sammy Davis Junior, and they rose to fame with their BBC television sitcom Miami Seven, aimed at
a young audience, What Turkey. Within five years, they achieved four UK number one singles, a UK number one album, several successful singles in Europe, top ten singles in the US. They recorded four studio albums, released eleven singles have sold more than ten million albums worldwide. Miami seven lasted four seasons, which I can't believe you did not watch mister Miami.
I know.
Were you too young?
Maybe? Maybe?
No, you're not your waight, No, you're too old anyway, last four season it was watched by over ninety million viewers. Now, S Club is back for reunion tour which kicks off October twelfth, and I am joined. Now this is gonna be a two for We got a two party with Club seven here because we were splitting the girls and the boys. First. Ladies first, of course, Rachel and Tina. Welcome to Frosted Tips.
Oh thank you.
Now. Was there anything in the intro that I got wrong?
No?
No, no, I was like, oh my god, I love it. I just love that. You're are heavily influenced by Iron Maid and Sammy Davis Junior. These are professionals right here. We're just going with it. The host is an idiot, and we're just going to go with it. All right, Girls Se Club reunited and heading out on tour. But let's go back to the beginning, all right. Mister Simon Fuller behind the Spice Girls looking to create a new group. How did you first hear about this opportunity?
So I was a dancer at the time, so I was saying I was working for Disney actually, and I was doing that and it was living my best life. And then my agent called me and said, oh, there's an audition for this thing and it's a band and it's a TV show and it's this and it's that. And I was like, Okay, yeah, I'm up for giving it a go. And yeah, auditioned and I got a call back and then met Summer Fuller and he was like, you're in, So yeah, it was quite Yeah, it's quite
easy as auditions go. Yeah, I think it's really good that all of us were like got into the brand in such different ways because I was I used to be a country singer and I was actually spotted seeing country in the place that I was working as a country singer at the time, and somebody from obviously Simon Fuller's company, was in that evening asked me to go along for the audition.
I went, and there I am twenty five years o easily slideing door moments.
Yeah, I was actually only Sony Records, my brother works there, and I was in the canteen, just minding my own business, having lunch. I knew nothing about the auditions that were happening, knew nothing about anything about the band, and I got approached by two producers who were looking to do a sort of solo project. When in the studio and started recording, and then they were working with Simon Fuller at the time.
We got connected. I met Simon and then the rest is history. Like a couple. I mean, that's a very long story, cut short, but a couple of weeks later I got asked everyone to be a part of Wow.
That's grazing because it was like ten thousand applicants applied to audition for this and when the auditions were held, one, what do you remember about the auditions And was it kind of like American Idol where it started with you know, ten thousand and goes down to one thousand, and there was there like stages of making it to the next level.
I know, I think there was.
I was by myself actually, I know, I know some people were in the sort of you know, it was more like a normal audition where there's quite a few people. I was like, just me, and it was kind of like, because if you have an agent you get private auditions, it's a bit less castle market, which is quite good. So yeah, it was just me and they.
They were sort of like, yeah, okay, you're in, You're in lucky Yeah.
Yeah.
My audition the only thing I can really really remember about because I'm very big ballad singer, and they said, oh, do you do you know anything? I was like, oh, I ended up growing out a bit of I want to dance with somebody who said really badly.
That's a good one.
Yeah, but always a show stopper.
I mean, you play that song in any bar any club, everyone's going to start dancing and singing.
It's true, you'll always be a hero, especially karaoke. Like, if you're horrible at karaoke, you put that one on.
It does not it doesn't matter because everyone's going to start singing and I'm not going to even listen to you.
Exactly. Now, you're a group of seven at this time, basically strangers. What did you do from here? Did y'all all have to live in a house together? How did y'all get to know each other so quickly?
Yeah?
How was that?
But enough? It started as five of us, Well, actually it was the four of you, wasn't it, John, Paul and myself?
Then I joined and we were we were I think we're going to be a five and then yeah, later I don't have timelines, but Joe and Brad then enjoyed and we came ye seven.
Lived together in the same house, though I don't think that ever worked. But we used to sort of like do like bonding weekends. We went bowling and.
And used to go to like London hot spots and stuff, and we spent a lot of time together that way. But I don't think I think if we'd have all lived in the house together. We might not have been sitting here.
Like like kild each other. The album.
We spent weekend, didn't We go down to Caffield and record for the weekends the album, and then we would do sort of work.
For the TV show. We do like workshops type thing. Yes, lots of bonding.
And so the producer he said, we don't know if they can act, so he sort of got us all in like a studio and made us still all these like acting so so awkward, and he was so into it, and so he's really lovely and we were doing all these sort of actuary things and just giggling the whole.
Time, and apparently he saying they can all act. So that was good, you know.
So going in they knew that y'all. They wanted y'all to do television.
Yeah, that was always going to be part of S Club. It was a TV show and the like the Monkey Monkey.
Yeah, y'all are like really yeah, very monkeys. But also you kind of led what K pop is doing now with the seven people. Yeah, I think you'll need a percentage of BTS. I'm just going to put that out there.
I agree.
Yeah, yeah, cool cool.
Our agent so what's what was your first impressions of each other? Were some of y'all getting along more than others?
Well, I think we were.
Really You think we were really, really lucky. We did all naturally just get on. There was something that very magical that just happened with the seven of us from the very first day. I think, Yeah, you know, that's why I felt. I felt like it was just a chemistry. You can't make it, then you've either got it or you don't.
And yeah you did.
It's like muma sauce with all different spices. Yeah, and it sort of worked so different.
I mean that can be difficult, especially, I mean because you're a mixed group, you know, guys and girls when you're on tour. Did y'all separate boy girl bus or did y'all each have your own bus?
No, we've always been together, shoved.
All of you.
Can I say, yeah, oh my god.
It wasn't like now where they're all sort of you know what, you could like her, you know. But yeah, it was good. Though we were fine.
I think we would have liked to separate though we did all like that's the carnage of the band is what makes the chemistry work.
We're all chaos always.
Who was the dirtiest on the bus?
Mine was the dirtiest. Yeah, yeah, you don't mind.
Yeah, And we do have to touch on, you know, not being with us anymore. I know you were planning on doing a reunion tour right before he passed. Uh, And I'm so glad that y'all continued to do this to honor him after. I mean, what what was it like getting the news about Paul And I mean, did that bring your group closer together?
It did? Yeah, so much.
Yeah. I think it was just a complete and utter shock that had just come out of nowhere because we were just so all buzzing for the tour and buzzing to we'll be back together, and then obviously to find out something as tragic and devastating as that, it knocks us all for six in him.
Yeah, I'm so so sad. He was like our best friend, like family, like you know, it is a family member and.
You are losing one of your own, And yeah, it was. It was very tough to deal with, but we were very lucky. But we've all had one another and we've all shared the same grief together, and it has definitely unified and wanted us close together for sure, and didn't We.
Had the time after to just try and take it all in and share memories and have time where we could just still be. And yeah, it was never an option not to do the tour. It was never something I don't think we ever thought. It's not We're not going to do. It's just made it. It's take a different journey which is really special because it's a celebration now. It was always a celebration, but it's now.
Paul's life.
And yeah, and also honoring him because I think he would have been really annoyed.
If we hadn't done this tour. So because he really really wanted to do it.
Yeah, from day one we were doing meetings, he was always like the most enthusiastic and really like yeah really so.
So so wanting to do it.
So yeah, well he'll be looking down at every single show that you'll have. I know it'll be beautiful. You are starting over in Europe, but I think are you bringing the tour over to the States at all?
We are so excited about because we have never done this before.
You've never toured here in America, no TV show.
So we spent so much time in America second home. Yeah, but yeah, he's never ever toured. No, we can't wait. I cannot wait to get over there and do it live for everyone the first time.
What are you most excited about coming over here? Is there something different you think America will be compared to your home country. I don't know.
I don't know what to experience because this is completely new territory for us as performing as a tour.
So yeah, and we always look.
At America is really really special because we shot our TV show there and America you just sort of look at America like being from England, you sort of think wow that everything is so big, it's all came and you guys really sort of you you go for it and it's just like wow, you know, whereas whereas in Britain we just apologize a lot.
That.
Yeah. Sorry, sorry, terribly sorry. It's been such a huge part of this club.
You know, we've been half of well more than half our time, like on the beach in America, and so it'll be really special to bring this to an American audience.
And we've always had so much support and yeah, it'll be amazing.
We love we always hear from American fans on social media, so you.
Know, we're just like, you know, you'll have huge fans here in the States. Huge. What was it like in so Miami seven went four seasons? Now, Michael here, my hubby, he is from Miami Beach, so he obviously knows the place.
Well, where did you actually shoot that show? Was it in l A? Though? Was that La?
Miami South Beach?
South? Okay, just north of it?
I think they said, yeah, I think.
Yeah, get them away from Yeah.
Yeah, we did three series in l A.
Yeah, that's crazy. So y'all are basically more American than you are British.
In terms of television. Yeah, I.
Do you ever think about moving back here?
Oh?
Wow?
I think if the opportunity ever came for us to do anything again over there, then I think it's definitely something we would be interested in doing.
Yeah. Never say never.
You never know, do you We never never get to do this again? So I know, yeah, did we was doing this twenty five years later?
You know, but you never know.
What It's definitely the time, I mean, this is the time for reunions.
Well especially yeah, yeah, I mean, look, I had no idea, no idea that we were be doing this yeah, like it was so crazy, but you know it is, it is all about just that that time, and it just kind of it revealed itself to us. We didn't. I mean, six months ago, I told you there's no way in Sync would ever have come back and done a song or anything. Uh, And then all of a sudden it just kind of landed in our laps with you guys. How who was the first to say, hey, let's let's do this again.
Well we did. We didn't talk back in twenty fifteen. We did.
We did, And I'm not taking credit, but I was. I put feelers out that way, were manifesting, Like everyone over to my flat and we had Chinese and I was just like, what if you know, and they were like, okay, that's where you can vite. It was all like yeah, my manipulative plan. Yeah, but yeah, and we loved it, didn't We like, we should do this again.
And then eight years later.
We got an email out the blue twenty five years since we first started. So we're we're celebrating our twenty fifth anniversary. And it just feels really really special, and especially with everything that's happened in the last few months, it feels like, sure, Yeah, it just feels like it's all come together and it's a very special way to celebrate everything that we are and have had and bring it back to the fans.
That nostalgia for people, I think is.
So special to And are you noticing so the gen zers are loving our era of music. It's it's just it's crazy that they're just.
It's crazy, you know. Nineties. Yeah, nineties wasn't even really fashionable in the nineties.
No, we always say that.
I remember being.
Loads and loads of rock bands and loads of like yeah body, and we were like so uncol like yeah, now it seems to come hop bands cool.
But now it's like we're okay, we're right now. Time. I think the nineties and the naughties pop was just the best.
It's the best.
It was the best time in music for pop music. There was nothing better than the nineties and like that.
Oh, you know, we're very fortunate to work with some of the best writers produced in the business, and you know, it stands a test of time, you know.
So, did you ever get to work with Max Martin?
No?
Max, you know, niceish, Yeah.
I mean he's I mean, he's just so responsible for pretty much every number one song in the last twenty five years, like it's crazy out of we need Yeah, I don't think so, no.
Okay, yeah, so she does a lot of sure for Brittany, Yeah Britta okay, Oh I.
Actually do you know who she is?
Yeah? Okay, very.
Nice.
Well, between there are music filming or TV shows, touring, you had crazy schedules. I could only imagine were you able to take it all in, like all the success at the time.
I don't, you know, I don't think that we actually do, because we didn't really get a chance because he was always on the next flight or we was always learning the next script or whatever. So I don't think it was too many years later and you actually look back on the footage and you see, wow, I can't believe that. It's almost like looking at another person doing it was like, yeah, yeah, it was real rollercoaster. We literally didn't have like any
kind of breathing space. It's like bang raang, which I'm sure you guys. Yeah, So that's why this time around we want to just sort of like enjoy every minute of it.
Do you feel that way? How was it for you, guys?
You feel like you yeah, one hundred percent, it's you don't. It felt like a dream. It's just like you said, it felt like you're watching someone else. You didn't really realize how big it had gotten because you don't watch television, you don't listen to radio. You don't know how big it is because you're just working every single day until you do have like a week off and you're watching that age is.
Yeah, you're that age as well, sort of late teens, early twenties. You're kind of you're experiencing so many incredible life moments, but you're also not necessarily experiencing some of the more sort of social sides of what you would be doing at that age, and I think that kind of takes things.
Yeah, I say that all the time too. It's you know, I love what I got to do. We were so lucky and like wow, privileged that I was able to do this amazing, incredible thing. But then you do miss some of the things, like I didn't get to graduate with my my friends, I didn't get to go to college.
So many events friends.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're all able to have friends come on the road and keep those relationships going because I know, within sync, I had like my core set of best friends from high school that I always had on the road with me. Just I just needed them around me as much as possible to keep if.
I could, if we could do that, that would have been great. We like obviously shows tours, they'd come yeah, yeah, but always be there. But not we just just yeah, there was too many of them.
I was gonna it was just just too too many guys. All right, so you even had your own dolls. Now I have a I have a thing about dolls. What did you think of when you first saw the dolls and were all into them?
Mom, was frightening.
I look like a witch, remember, Oh I can Barbie, Yeah, I was disturbing looking thing I've ever seen.
Horrid. Yeah, I can't. I'm quite liking. But I was like, oh I wish I didn't like that. The day was wrong, it was wrong place.
No, Yeah, I look mine looked like a witch. Like we had marionettes and it just just like my teeth were all liked and like sharp.
And give you.
I mean yeah, it was.
When you look at a doll version of yourself, that's yourself.
This is how they see me.
Oh, we're doing all right, guys.
The same thing with pictures, you know, the pictures that they would pick, and of course there's five of us or seven were also like someone's going to have something wrong with them. It was always me. It was always like, well, Lances left eyes closed, but who cares, Let's.
Just go with it.
Yeah, I have one with both close, like justin j C.
Look great.
That was like that.
If they had those Instagram filters, now, if you didn't, probably was.
Yeah.
I asked about the dolls because I remember at the beginning of our careers someone from the New Kids on the Block camp or someone said, look, whatever you do, just don't put out doll because it is a kiss of death to any band. Once you release a doll, the band disappears. The next couple of years, they're done. And we were always laughing about that, and so we finally did marionettes. Were like, well they're marionettes, they're not doll. So and literally within the next year we were done.
So wondering if your doll came out, were you all done within the next year?
Well, I don't know when did the band well before we ended the day before that was the last short for us. We did the movie.
Yeah Wait a Minute, landed a movie too, and then then thinking that broke up. I think it was the movie to be honest.
Yeah, well I think we stumbled upon some Yeah, may we discovered I was blaming the breakup on but.
Now it was your budding film career.
Allus got all the blame.
So funny, all right, Well, you also released your first new song in twenty years These are the days. It's also a tribute to Paul tell Us about the song.
The song actually has been around for a long time. It's an old song and it was Yeah, it just it was rotten. You know what I think the story is that the song was actually written for us. It was twenty years ago. They didn't fit in with what we was doing.
Back then, no one else had done it, and the song was still sat there.
And when you listen to the lyrics and the message in the story of the song, it just works absolutely perfectly for the situation sadly we found ourselves in.
It was very anointing.
Yeah, so now it was the right time to re record the song and and of it as our trip beautiful and also to look forward to what the future holds for us.
Now. Yeah, it felt like a very.
Special song from where we've come from where we're at now, where we come to the next step the next.
Chapter exactly, Well what do you what do you want that next chapter to be?
Wow? Well, I think the dolls, do you know what I think?
And I think what's really special coming at it everyone, but like just to be in the moment and enjoy it, you know, at the ages we are now with twenty five years on and yeah, it'd be in the moment and just ye be present and what we'll cut just I think that's.
And we're embracing it so much more now because we feel so lucky to be in this position to come back, like we've been away for you know long a long time, come back and still be able to go on tour and like a huge scale is just unbelie So we just love our fans and you know, we're just really enjoying things together again, absolutely more than we ever have actually, I think so yeah, yeah, I mean.
It's it's so great to see the fandoms come out because like I said, I mean for the last twenty years, your fans have been amazing, especially here in the States, Like I mean, I hear about you all the time, you know, and you had music in a long time. What do you want to tell your fans out there, the ones that have stuck by our for so long.
So there's not very much more you can say the part from you thank you for sticking with us, and.
We love you. Yeah, we love you so much.
Yeah, And it's so special when people come up to you and say you were my childhood or you know, you made such a positive impact on my life. I think, you know, I think now about our lyrics to our music. I mean, I've got two kids, and we've all got kids now, and the lyrics take on different meanings at different points in your life. And I think that our songs are just so positive and have such a beautiful message in them, and and I think that's so special.
Probably that's probably why the fans have stuck with us for so many years, because it takes them back to a really positive.
Time in their life.
Yeah.
So, yeah, we love them very much and we can't wait to get over for the first time ever. Well, definitely, I hope you're.
Becoming I hope you're playing Los Angeles, right, I hope. I mean we're there. So you were saying that you know you have kids now, which really puts things into perspective these days and and saying, you know, you are going to enjoy every second of this time and just eat it all up. Did you ever think ause, you know, with with the InSync readion, you know, that just happened. I never thought in my life that my kids would be able to see dad on television or on stage.
Did you ever think that your kids would be able to get to see y'all like back on stage.
That's what's going to be the most amazing thing for all of us with the kids doing the arena, like doing the big stages and the big arenas, and they're a whole old enough now to actually go wow. So yeah, it's going to be pretty special.
And how did how did y'all explain to them, you know, the fame part of your lives?
Did it?
Was it easy for them to grasp or are they still kind of like what is this?
Yeah, it's just something that comes over time, you know, with with age. And yeah, I have a seven year old and he's I think he's just getting it.
Yeah, but he he I think he thinks everyone sings and dances to honest, Yeah, it's.
Yeah, you know, yeah, they don't know any different but he's interesting now because they're nine and twelve.
But now they really do, like you were saying, they get it now, Yeah.
And they understand it, and they're now asking lots of questions and they they just get the begetting.
Would you encourage them to go into entertainment or would you highly suggest they choose a different field?
Well?
Yeah, sorry, mine's quite clever. Maybe a proper job, you know.
Proper proper job.
Ye please, Yeah.
If he does go to the jids hands, that's fine. My daughter is there anyway, She's that's it. There's no she's there's no other options. Oh yeah, she's already been on the stage. She's that's all she wants to do, both of them.
If you know, when you know right, you know.
They love they love it and they're passionate about it. To encourage them to do whatever, I love exactly.
I know you're not supposed to push things on your kids, but I am slightly pushing. I mean, our kids are only two, but I am. I'm really guiding them into like animals. My my my goal for them, my wish for them is for them to be vets veteran veterinarians so they start their own vets, So it's like a twin vet thing, right, So work with animals I would love. I think it would just be the best best job.
We could save so much vet bills, Oh my gosh, we have free vet bills exactly. They should be or they could be a dentist then they could, or you can save money and dental work.
Yeah, but nothing like crazy like open heart surgery are types off? No, no, no, just like a nice you can breathe a little bit less stressed.
I'm glad you're here for the planning of Virgil that yeah, there too. They're gonna be two next week.
That sounds like.
We honestly don't know. We don't know the difference because we started with two, so I could only imagine how harder it would feel after having one. But uh, we don't know the difference.
I can imagine the difference, and it's a lot harder, It's true, just imagining it when we have our little separate time with them and I just have one, Like, oh my gosh, this is amazing, this is so easy.
I can like actually watch this one and know that they're safe. Yeah, because you know, at all times there's one you can't see, so you know they're on the round.

Yeah, okay, good, That's why I've always been my favorite. Really, No, I'm from America, and I would choose to take that just because they were such an influence on us, because they broke up right when we got together. And if it wasn't for them breaking up, because they were in b MG Ariola in Germany, we are the ones who replaced them on the label. So so without take that, there would be no inst this or that flip phone, BlackBerry or sidekick.
I know, so exciting flip and I remember I had one and I used to kind of snap it ready.
Me too, coming back talking to like my mom.
I know, me too.
Yeah, it's funny, you know.
I had the BlackBerry. I loved because I could type with one hand without wak looking to blindfold. I see, I never did. I never did the Sidekick because it was so big with like Paris Hilton and a Cole Ritchie and it was just I don't even know.
What it was, just like it looked like a video game control click it and it like flipped open like we and I don't know.
It was too big. It was like a video game console.
It was, but it was just very It was branded like Paris Hilton issues and I was like, that's a billy. I can't do that. Yeah for girls all right? Uh? Full House or Boy Meets World?
Did you even watch any of those?
Full House?

I have a couple of fan questions for you. Uh the Fresh Nostalgia would like to know, will you perform any B side songs on tour? Like so right, we're not doing so right, which.
That we're not doing, but it's a really difficult thing when we were planning the tour is what songs to because there's so many.
So many B sides that I don't think there are there's some album tracks.
Yeah, sorry, that'll be the next tour, the B side exactly, the B side tour. Beth Miss five would like to know would you do another TV show? And if so, what would the plot be? Now?
For another way, we've toyed with the idea.
I've been like coming up with ideas now and it's been very interesting to see what actually happened at the end. Yeah, yeah, we need like an were Yeah obviously we're in London, London, London, London.
That would actually be great if you, like if you just filmed the ending, but you just pretend it was like you filmed it right after original, so you just like just continue.
The plot and just pretend you're twenty something years younger. That would be great. This would say the same, that'd be amazing.
Look, if they can make Harrison Ford look thirty, I think we're good.
We can. I mean, you all basically do look the same. I know you look exactly, so you really could just do that.
I love that.
