I was there March 6th 2020, The Sinclair, Cambridge Massachusetts... phenomenal performance that had to last me all the way through the shit show of a year that was to follow. I love the insight this documentary video provides into how totally un-glamorous, mundane and taxing touring is in between the shining hours spent delivering an amazing experience to lucky ticket holders. All I can say is: thank you!!

[rasm]

To quote a band from my neck of the woods, "the glamour is contagious".

[AnitaSine]

I don't know where all the "boring" comments come from, really. It's a short glimpse into their touring lives, not a "making of" doc. I loved it. Also, I'm quite hungry.

[verylegalverycool]

19:35 The content I've always needed.

[hongtheroad]

looking forward to seeing you in Europe again soon

[thirdsmusic]

I was at the first show of the tour in Portland and the sound work was excellent. Thanks for a really great show all around! Going to be there again for the last show of the next tour, full circle!

This belongs in the Criterion Collection

[sentienthotdog]

He didn't say "thank you" for his burrito. Total Dan.

[marrz]

Looking forward to seeing them in chicago again ✌️🤘

For everyone mad at this collection of tour footage, there should be several buttons surrounding the video frame that will take you away from this page!

[kyotopurplesangaBRA]

I like the idea. I like the juxtaposition about really get to know each other in "real life" and how eventually mundane our routine can be, and how everyone's expecting it not to be, because YouTube or TikTok told you so. I like how the apparent absence of love is somehow love itself. Hope to see you guys live someday - maybe NY? Greetings from Brazil :)

[dustinday]

I didn't mind this. Dan eating that sub was the highlight. Made me smile. Touring is as boring as you want it to be though.

[jasonsteakums]

This was awesome. Idk what people are talking about. I always got annoyed with kids glamorizing touring so much. This *is* the job

[billpalmer]

Do you ever play near Pittsburgh, Cleveland or Buffalo?

[alejandrotorves]

I love this band... but why make this doc without talking about anything at all?

[LettersofVerax]

Touring is an endless string of banalities. This captures it well.

[jondoe]

I was a week away form seeing you all before dumb ass covid. Someday, sigh.

[docmuck]

That burrito is huge! Why aren't more people talking about this?

[danutasnbrown]

10min in, alot of this footage could use a voiceover

[dustinhodell]

I love destroyer. This is incredibly boring
