Bob (I Against I – bass)

SPB: (In non-COVID times) What do you like to do on a tour off date?

Bob: On a tour off date I like to walk around town with people who live there. They know where to find the best record stores, bars and places to sleep in the sunshine. We did a night-tour through Vienna once and ended up in a bar where people did some crazy German standup comedy at five in the morning.

On your own you do not find the cool places.

Walking around town is a nice and refreshing thing to do on tour. You probably visit a lot of places only one time in your life so you don’t want to miss out. 

I once brought my running shoes on tour but the nights playing shows and party on ‘til the next morning made me forget about them the whole tour!
