Kevin joining the FaceTime with tank’s daughter is the absolute most wholesome thing I’ve ever heard

But for a German, what David said made sense although it should have been ”on the umbrella” 😂

Ingrid calling Kevin Spaceman is just the single most adorable thing I've ever heard

I was really starting to think that David is just playing his bad English but the sentence "Do you still have the tablets infront of your umbrella" just kills me as a German. The word-to-word translation is "Hast du noch die Tabletten auf dem Schirm?" which means "Do you still have the medication in mind?". This is a truly "not the yellow from the egg"-moment and I love this!

tank seems like he sincerely cares about the bands he works with and it really shows

Its so cool seeing how energised and revitalised Tank is after this tour. Bet it hardly feels like work when you love the band and their people.

At rockcircus, a festival in the netherlands where electric callboy played, we had a guy in wheelchair crowdsurfing. Everybody was very carefull with him and he was having an absoluut blast! It was so amazing to see. The band themselves went wild when they saw it too.

As a german, the David/Umbrella story damn killed me 😂😂😂

Kevin is spaceman. That makes my heart so happy. Can't explain how happy this makes me to hear more joy from Callboy. Would seriously travel ANYWHERE to see them again.

"Hast du die Tabletten noch auf dem Schirm?" = "Do you have the tablets on your umbrella?" = "Do you have the pils on your (radar) screen?" = "Do you remember the pills?"
Schirm (umbrella ) is also short for "Bildschirm" (screen) and the reference is about a screen monitoring what's going on currently.
We Germans love direct translations that don't make sense for English speakers.

"every night we had to get more coke" aaah, tour days 🤯

The Umbrella part cracked me up. There is whole art of literrally translating German idioms into English.

as a german living in the states, germans complain a lot too BUT afterwards. while everything is going on everyone is focused on getting the job done no matter what and with whatever is provided

as a German guy, I would literal translate "auf dem Schirm" as "on the Screen".
But I kind of know why he said umbrella.
A "Schirm" is mostly something that covers / shields / protects something or Someone.
Regenschirm = Umbrella → covers you from Rain (DE: Regen)
Sonnenschirm = Parasol → shields the sun (DE: Sonne)
Fallschirm = Parachute → protects you from damage caused by falling (DE: fallen, Noun: Fall)
Lampenschirm = Lampshade → covers the Lamp (DE plural: Lampen) and shields the light
Bildschirm - Screen → In case of the Bildschirm (Screen), the "Schirm" refers to the surface on which the image appears. This surface serves as a protective device for the image, shielding it from outside influences such as dust, dirt, or damage. It also creates a boundary between the image and the viewer.

Germans often abbreviate "Regenschirm" to "Schirm" in cases were it's obvious. They also do this with "Bildschirm". If Bildschirm (Screen) = Schirm & Regenschirm (Umbrella) = Schirm, the mix-up is funny but explainable :-)

I have fallen in love with Electric Callboy—and you—through their vlogs and your vlogs and videos about them. I didn't notice this at first, but they—and you—have inspired me to think about myself as an American and as a professional, and gradually, my attitudes and how I work and how I treat other people have changed because of EC and their crew and you and how all of you work and treat each other. It's almost astonishing to me that "just" a German metalcore band and their music and "just" a roadie—you—sharing yourselves and your experiences can have such a wonderful effect on me! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As someone who's been subscribed to you from sub 1k subscribers and hung out on your Discord for a while, it's just so wholesome to hear about your success with Electric Callboy. The very band that actually brought me to your channel :)
Much love Tank, keep doing what you're doing and keep being you!

The "Umbrella" translation reminds me a story how one guy translated "Ich wünsch dir was" literally to "I wish you what" (instead of a more appropriate "All the best" or "Take care")

I guess the thing about this band is that they started as some dudes that just liked to hang around and do some music with each other. And that type of band they have been for years. Well Nico is "new", but from the old footage it seemed that they also picked him because it just did click with him was well. And they managed to keep this attitude till today and are just amazed about whats happening at the moment - I mean filling all this not small clubs in the US and even bigger arenas here in Europe and run a production on that level is also new for them.
And this attitude just makes you chilled and grateful - and of course triggers your own inner play child, because now you can bring things to the stage you have always dreamed of. Guess that is what has formed the spirit of this tour.

This is such a great video. I love all the stories, but one thing jumps out at me. If it was really Excedrin, I hope someone told David to be careful with the dosage. If you take too much acetaminophen, or take it with something else that has acetaminophen in it without realizing, or if you combine it with alcohol, it can do a lot of damage to your liver. I mean, it's safe. There's no way it should be a prescription medication. But for a headache after a night of drinking, absolutely do not take Excedrin. Regular aspirin is better in that case, and don't take more acetaminophen than it says to on the label. If he still has that bottle, PLEASE tell him to be nice to his liver. I'm assuming the EC boys all drink, and anyone who drinks potentially not knowing that worries me.

I’ve never really thought about the work that goes on behind the scenes to get a show/tour going. This is infinitely interesting.
