They are from the Ruhrgebiet and it is an old mining area and working class, in the ealy days the lifes of the miners depends on each other, they were real bros. It is still in their culture. If you are raised there they would set you straight if you would be posh. And they have a lot of humor, I love it!
Very happy for you man! I couldn't make this tour but if they do another US tour I am so there.
@@Alias_QI saw them in Minnesota and Kevin said at the end of the show that they'd see us again next year.
Tank do you know why so many bands dont have tour dates in Florida or at least relatively close to Florida?
My man,like your dream came true,my would be your shout out❤❤❤
❤😘
Saw you in Toronto. What a great gig!! Hope to see you again soon. Danke you beautiful bastards.
😘😘😘
I already checked David off the list. Now I need to collect the rest. 😂
The blue ridge set legit changed my whole music trajectory lol so thankful I got to see you all and get to find Tanks channel too. Hoping maybe one day I get to meet them or even open for them. Riding the Tekkno train until then!!!!
Sorry guys, but you have to bring Tank to Germany. We need more such nice Guys here 😉
@tankthetech Also great vocals there!!! 9 mins in that part was hilarious 😂
I love how you rocked my Part
legend, and great praise 🤘
Kalle you are the best!!!!
Das Crossover zwischen dir und damit der Spandauer szene und dieser Musik Bubble kam so unerwartet. Aber geil.
Wie geil sich das anfühlen muss, wenn ein Amerikaner das eigene Zeug nicht kopiert, sondern covert. Live. In New York.
Respekt, ich hoffe, da kommt zur rechten Zeit mal mehr!
Kallleee alla HACKSÜLZE FÜR DIE FAAAAANS
Hey Tank! This is/was your merch driver Tony. Just wanted to thank you for an amazing tour and the memories along the way! It's easy to see why the band loved you so much. Hope to see you on upcoming tours!!!
TONY!!! Hope you’re doing well, brother! Thanks for everything out there!
14:05 In the words of Jack Black: "Just because you’re not in the band doesn’t mean that you’re not *in*the band."
Yeah that game was a beautiful loveletter to all the roadies. :)
Tank, I'm over here crying from happiness and pride. This is what you deserve, and the band adores you. Much love brother.
That's some vicarious living there 😅
When you love a band so much, it's absolutely incredible to hear that they're actually incredible people.

I was just thinking the same thing!! it is the best feeling to know there are still good humans out there x
Can only speak about the past, but I first met them at a small festival a few years ago. We got to talk a bit and drank a few beers together, they are really nice and extremely fun to be around
Seconded. I've been going to their concerts since 2012, so obviously I've been to quite a lot (and very small ones in the beginning too on top of it). After a small gig in Düsseldorf or Dortmund(?), we ran into Kevin and had a very nice chat. He was so pleasantly talkative, kind, funny and genuine that time flew and after half an hour, we had to go "Sorry, we need to go home now ..." 😂 He remembered me though and when we would meet him after gigs, he would still know my name every single time. What you guys see of them in these vlogs? 100000% real. He was EXACTLY like that back then already. I have nothing but respect and love for these guys.
Next video title "So I'm moving to Germany"
It's a possibility. 😂
@@TankTheTech if you need a place to crash in berlin hmu xD
I can only agree with you.
I was their double driver for the Hypa Hypa Tour in 2022, even took over the last two days as Solo-Driver.
The Band and Crew were just normal human beings. Nerding out Backstage about Cardgames, jamming to music while driving and having a smoke, it was a blast.
Everyone knew their shit, everyone DID their shit and it was just very well rounded all around.
I have the Lanyard of the Tour proudly hanging on my PC-Desk to this day. And I was on Tour with Bands like Destruction, Exodus and Overkill.
NOTHING beats Electric Callboy when it comes to human decency and absolute Respect.
Nothing but Love and Positivity when it comes to my memories of it.
This tour was absolutely insane. It was great to finally meet you and some of the band! Glad to provide the video for you! It was an absolute blast seeing you on stage with these guys!! ❤
It was awesome to finally meet you in person as well, and thank you for all the candy. 🎉
@@TankTheTechI'll bring some next time too 😂
Electric Callboy was the most fun I’ve had at a concert ever! They were always showing appreciation and love to the fans throughout the show. It was so cute when they’d bring people’s kids on stage for the group photo. It’s awesome how respectful they are of their whole crew. The complete opposite of the douchey rockstar persona. So happy you had a great experience!
On behalf of all the German fans; you're always welcome here and we'd love to see you together with the boys on a German tour someday! 🤘🏻❤️
Why am I not surprised Electric Callboy pregames their own sets with hardstyle? The Seattle show was dope
as a german I have to say you nailed Kalles part :D
this entire video is so wholesome
Tank needs to be a special guest in every concert in europe! WE WANT HIM HERE
TankTheTech featering Electric Callboy
JAWOLL!
Dude, did you ever believed before, that your journey comes to this point? Just amazing.
Nope. Wild how the universe works.
Started with a random reacrion
@@TankTheTech we are looking forward for what comes next: "The Book of Tank" or "Tank: the Movie"😉
Thihi... Tank loving that Nico is so "direct", while knowing that being direct is just a normal german thing is so funny. Tank, I am sure you would fit right in here in germany! 😉
The way you describe the tour... THAT'S MY DEUTSCHLAND!
New nickname for tank is tankinski 🤣🤣
Can I just say, that while I love the music of EC, what I appreciate the fuck out of all this is grown men in this genre of music and the industry being comfortable and confident in speaking about their feelings. Like fuck. it's a breath of fresh air.
It's SO NICE and refreshing to hear that a band can be this nice while on tour 😊❤❤ And Electric Callboy is literally a huge band right now. It's really nice that none of that success has gone to their heads.
I think the fact they started to be internationally successful in their 30s instead of their 20s might play a part in that, it's probably easier to stay down to earth with that extra level of maturity! But also they seem like genuinely real good people!
@@misscrackwood Well... not necessarily. Even in their mid 20's most of german youth won't excessively exeggerate themselves, because that is not meant to be in our educational approach. Our children are trained constantly to humble themselves knowing being a dick will get you nowhere in Germany. That is, why we don't have any Zuckerberg's, Musk's or even Trump's over here.
In one of the interviews Kevin (I think it was him) said that they have a pledge - if any of the guys starts acting like a star the rest is expected to beat him back into humility xD
@@bjornm.1121not completely true. have a look at the new breed of rich kids they are fakin awful
These guys are from my town, a former mining community. Down in the mine, you used to value two things in a man: He had to work as hard as yourself so your team could meet its production target, and he had to have half an eye on his collegues always. One day your life would depend upon one of your collegues having your back. There was very little time for small talk. In short, miners grew up to be hard working and very direct teamplayers. The mines are closed now and the old miners slowly die out, but that mindset is still part of our culture to an extent.
Very good description of a real "Ruhrpottler" ❤ Greetings from Dortmund 🤟
@@kevinwulf8608 Grüße zurück aus Castrop-Rauxel. 👍🤘
Perfekt beschrieben. Grüße aus'm Südrand vom Pott aus Hattingen 👍🤘
Glückauf! Grüße aus Herten von ner ehemaligen RAG-Azubine. 😄
@@Cat-jf5pi Grüße zurück aus Castrop von einem ehemaligen Wanne-Eickeler!
The whole crew may not go on the stage and perform but every member of the crew is important for making sure the tour goes smooth. There's no reason to treat them like crap.
Only went to the NYC show, but it was awesome from start to finish. Met some of the boys and was so happy to meet you too! 🤘🤘
Meeting you was not only awesome but made for a hilarious moment as well. And Ingrid thanks you for Wolpertinger. ❤
It must be so satisfying to work for people who are that nice in that industry. I've never heard of them but i will check them out just because they are solid people.
You have to. And then: Welcome to the rabbithole :D
Music connects the world. You‘re welcome to Germany at any time…
Nico is very straight forward. He told one fan that was in the front at the show in Santa Ana not to flip him off because that is not the way to tell him you love him. He said maybe a kiss would, but not the middle finger. LOL!!
I was there and that dude was a few people over from me and that shit had me dying, like bruh wtf you doin
That whole "You don't have to do *everything* for us" thing you got from the band... I think part of that is a difference between a European vs. American attitude...
I don't know. I moved from Scandinavia to the US 17 years ago. The band's behavior kinda sounded "normal" (but exceptionally nice) to me.
Das ist so schön zu hören. Es bestätigt auch genau mein Eindruck von den Jungs. Ich freu mich sehr für dich das du dabei sein durftest und so einen tollen Job gemacht hast.❤
Man that actually made me tear up a little and I wasn't even part of the tour. Awesome that you had such a great time! If you ever move to Germany you will surely fit just right in!
Kevin & Nico are my favourite bromance in Metal. Whole band is super wholesome. I sadly missed out on seeing them here in Australia coz they sold out so quick!
EC is a class act from everything I've heard even before this video. I mean just the fact they changed their name when nobody asked them to because they didn't want to alienate anybody. Absolute legends! Really hope I get to see them soon!
I can’t believe that this kind of behavior isn’t standard. I would never expect somebody who was my tour manager to ever do anything meaningless like carry my bags or clean up messes and shit like that it’s really nice to hear that there are other artists out there like me who believe in, including the crew, and treating them like family as opposed to treating them like they’re disposable. ❤
I flew out to Minneapolis to see this show. It was one of the most fun concerts I've ever been to in my life. After the show there were some people hanging out near the buses and I was talking to them about the concert and Nico and Kevin came over and talked to all of us for like 15+ minutes, took pictures and everything. They were so awesome.
Sad I didn't get to talk to you, but you were in the zone trying to get everything loaded up and on the road after the show. I'm glad everything behind the scenes was as fun and wholesome as the bit I saw from the crowd and after the show!
No doubt my HR was 150+ at start of shows. Just insane. Absolutely incredible meeting you and the guys! Thanks Tank!
Great meeting you as well, man! Hope to see you soon!
Incredible performance, singing in a foreign language and then getting it spot on like this.
Gods... I got emotional. Its so good to know that band i love so much is also this good in terms of people.
Congratulations Tank! You absolutely nailed the German part of Castrop X Spandau! And what a heartwarming video in general. Cheers 🍻
As a teacher who has taught in both Canada and the US, I can tell you the education system in Germany is absolutely first-rate with a stellar international reputation.
As a german I am happy that you see it that way.
But I still have to ask why you think that. In Pisa studies we are constantly on a bad place etc.
This is not an attack i am just curious:)
We dislike it and it's honestly sad, that we are praised so often for it.
Teachers and money are the key parts missing nearly everywhere in our schools and that a building isn't up to some regulation isn't too uncommon, too.
Our system needs an overhaul and good staff, which isn't chronicle overworked and on the edge to burnout.
Our System is very good in comparison...but sur it has somme issues. But my fellow german likes to complain and very hard to be satisfied
Are you joking? Because as a German I feel like you are joking
@@raven2k714 Frankly, those studies are kind of worthless. But the system could still be better. *All* countries are investing far to little into education.
Happy you had this opportunity. Looks like a helluva time.
Oh, this gonna make me cry, I just know. I love the boys SO much! Every one of their vlogs shows how much they love and care for each other. They are so sweet, and kind, not at all afraid to show vulnerability, and confident enough in themselves and their sexuality to hug and kiss each other, without having to yell "Haha, no h*mo, though!"
I'm so happy for you to have become part of this beautiful family. Everybody should have friends like this, and the world would be in a much better place. ❤😊
You have not found good employers for whom you enjoy doing your job, but real friends. That's rare, but it makes me incredibly happy to hear and see that something like that still exists. You deserve it! 🤗
Through people like you, it may become clear to many others that Germans may have a harsher language but are far from the stereotypical bad german.
One certainly can't say they represent Germany as it is as a whole, but one can certainly say they represent the best in us.
Schön gesagt ❤
If you ever move to germany you won't be left alone, the Band and their Fans (including me) will welcome you with all our hearts ❤
How many of us went back to see the first ever Hypa Hypa reaction, hands up!
Tank ist ein so lieber Typ. Stay as you are
I always struggle to separate the artist from the art, but it works both ways... knowing the artist(s) are absolute legends opens my brain and ears to stuff I wouldn't normally appreciate or enjoy.
As a german fan of the band i thank you for youre great work and am happy that you and the guys had so much fun and developed a bromance ;D!!!
Wow, Tank, your german part is awesome!🤩 The prononciation is really, really good! And the verses in CastropxSpandau aren't easy, because they're quite fast.
Much love from Germany! ❤🤗
There is so much awesome about these guys. I'm 40 now, and this is actually pretty much the only metal band, that both me and my kids (17 and 16) really enjoy. We saw them live in Hamburg earlier this year, and it was a total blast, and maybe the best family trip ever 😅
So awesome to hear, that EC actually are as nice as they seem to be ❤
I met them in person back in the day when they had released their first EP. Self-published. They sold their own merch. This was over a decade ago. Kevin and I did goofy stuff up until 5 AM until the club closed the doors.
It is so great to see that you had this experience!
Ok now we really need a EC feat. Tank song with some hard vocals from Tank! Your voice fucking fit so good in the sound of EC!
One of the things that initially drew me to this band was their huge air of positivity and joy in what they do. You don't see that enough in metal. It's great to hear that they walk their talk and are really sweet guys!
So happy for you man, and thanks again for introducing me (and so many of us) to them in the first place! Also, holy shit dude, you've got a nice bark! (Harsh vox)
Vielen dank für deine Unterstützung von EC. Es ist schön zu sehen, wie sehr du diese Bands liebst, so wie wir. ❤
I went to the show in Denver and it was amazing 🔥 I ended up there all thanks to you! 🙏🏼
Oh man Denver was WILD.
@@TankTheTech I generally just travel for techno, so it was my first mosh experience as well. I then shortly after went to Jinjer when they were in my vicinity, so thanks again 🥰
17 minutes of joy and I can't stop smiling. It's like having a first date, you write for months, than meet for the first time and then you are over the moon, that the person is really is as nice as you thought. And then it's pure love.❤
Callboy Tankinsky - love it 😂
Hell yes...part-two this. And I wouldn't mind if you part-3 it as well.😂
I went to the show in Philly and that was literally one of the best shows ive ever been to. Electric Callboy are just one of those humble and amazing nice bands that I love. I will forever be a fan after what I saw/experienced after that show. They really are the nicest guys
It's really refreshing to hear about a bunch of guys just getting along and being buds, and musicians being decent people and not full of themselves. Happy stuff. 🙂
Getting to see EC was one of the few bright spots of blue ridge for me. so glad to hear that on top of being amazing performers they are also great people.
1,000% agree!! BRRF Friday had 2 bands on my "must see" list...Electric Callboy and Lorna Shore. Neither disappointed! There with my daughter and bumped into an old friend waiting for EC to go on. He'd not heard them and I was like "you're gonna love this!" and he did. @tankthetech I'm pretty sure I caught a glimpse of you during setup & if so, it was clear you were in the zone and not too happy at that moment. Watched your video about the debacle from your perspective and totally understood. Wish I'd been able to meet you but know better than to try when someone's eyeball deep in work mode. Maybe next year at a show. Hope that sh!t experience didn't leave a bad taste for Virginia and it's people because it is not representative of either. ❤
I was at the show in Portland and it was an absolute blast. Great work to @electricCallboy and @TankTheTech for putting on such an amazing show.
I am so incredibly proud and happy for you and what you have become to the modern online metal community ❤️ thanks Tank and EC for all the joy you bring , love from Denmark 🇩🇰
That hardstyle part makes so much sense, I saw a glimpse of Nico just dancing around backstage this year in Tuska before their set 😂
Oh Tank, this is soooooo chuffing wholesome. I did a cry for ya! Honestly it's just so beautiful. Humans being good humans, showing mutual respect as standard. As the world should be. Gives me faith in humanity again. ❤️
Liebe geht raus an dich, Tank 🫶 I'm happy for you and the band having such a great time 👍 Greetings from Germany
It’s so refreshing to hear that a band that is growing that quickly, is still humble and respectful to their crew, especially one they have just met for that tour. So glad you got to do this with them, you deserve it dude. Keep up the awesome content, and keep being an awesome roadie ❤️
Haha, oh, maaan that was SO cool!!!
your eyes in this video are all I need to believe you 100%, you look so happy
honestly, I have NEVER heard anyone say a single bad word of that band. I saw them live at Copenhell, and they seemed like such a chill and awesome band.
On the subject of moving to Germany - I think that would be a good choice. You would of course have to go Metric full out as it is set out in the DIN-standards (DIN = Deutsche Industrie Normen) but other than that it shouldn't be any problem. With regards to Ingrid and the School system in Germany I believe it has a very good standard. Depending on where in Germany you plant your roots you might even find an American School to enroll her in.
Regardless of how it turns out - Moving or not, full time TM for EC or not - I wish you all the best for your future.
Cheers / Mr_B_Dublin
What country to move to - Remember what Frank Zappa said:
"There is no Hell...
But there is France..."
/ B.
Yeah a move to germany should be no Problem for someone like Tank. The German Education system is pretty decent (although on the decline a bit but i hope that will change in the next few years :P ). If they would offer you a fulltime Job the area around their "Homebase" is pretty nice to live in. You have Cities like Essen, Dortmund, Düsseldorf (where i live hehe) and plenty more to choose from that all have good Schools for your Kid, plenty of Job opportunities even if you dont work fulltime for the Boys and more :)
All I can say is you looked like you were having such a blast being on stage with them and it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. I'm so glad you have all the good memories to wash out the stank of Blue Ridge promoters from your brain. And even I want to say thank you to Electric Callboy for taking care of Tank and showing him what metal in Europe is all about.
I watched this video a second time and all I have to say is, the way EC treated you is the way it should be.
Honestly Tank, that treatment you recieved in the past sounds awful. Maybe I am just too European, but I tought...hoped most of the bands, artist are like Electric Callboy, that do not treat their crew and everybody around them like slaves.
It was so heartwarming to see your and the guys posts throughout the tour, I can see that this was a really moving experience for you - despite the difficulties, I hope they will go there sometime in the future - but also hoping for a concert near my area again, I saw them live in Budapest this spring - best concert of my life.
It's so heartwarming to hear you all speak on how awesome and special this tour has been because it really felt like that for me and my bff as well. I said it a few times already but it's such a great feeling to know the band I fell in love with are genuinely great people. For the short time we spent with them and you, it really felt like we were just a bunch of friends talking about nothing and everything. I'm so happy this tour turned out to be such a meaningful moment in your career and in your personal life, and I can't wait to see you all again, hopefully soon! Also shoutout to the girls from Conquer Divide who are absolutely badass ❤
FUCKING FANTASTIC!!!!
Well I think one reason for them being such cool guys is that they've not forgotten where they came from. I had my rehearsal space next to theirs (they've moved a few weeks ago) and I've met some of them multiple times and they're really nice guys. They knew that all of us small bands know who they are but we didn't treat them differently and so they didn't aswell. Nothing ever like "oh common, get on our lvl" or smething, just some bros who love the same music and the same beer that happened to all of a sudden be popular 😄
so refreshing to know that a really dope band that has such a wholesome energy in their videos are actually like that in real life 😭💖
You treating them like this ensures they'll come back again, and maybe this time they'll come to GA so I can finally see them. Thank you!
Germans got the reputation of, if you once broken their shell, you gain friends for your entire life. Thats your reward for being electric callboys own tank the tech :D . i am proud to see that you got a blast with the boys and this memory will last forever. Your reward :) keep on tekkno-ing :D Awesome.
that part with friendships thats what u get from germans if u can make friend with germans u have them fro live time and they go trough shit for (even after contact loss for 10ths of years u can come back and get greeted with ur hadshake
So glad everyone at the Fillmore in Minneapolis gave you a round of applause and we got a bow from you
It's so Beautiful to hear so much kind words.
This is so sweet. Perfect German btw.
Bros got one of the best beards I’ve ever seen
DAMN TANK! You rocked the Stage :D That was some good pronounciation! Your a natural at speaking german.
I'm really not surprised that they're so nice. Just watching the videos of them reacting to reaction videos of their new songs, I always noticed that they always had something nice to say about the reactor and so much appreciation that people were reacting to their music.
Damn Tank you got some pipes! Amazing performance from you and the band. You deserved every minute of that love!
Electric Callboy listening to Rooler before their set is one of the sickest things I've ever heard. Like two worlds colliding for me
16:00 song name is move 2 da beat by rooler
oh boy, time to get emotional again. loved to hear you talk about the tour and following you via social media, it looked to be an amazing experience both professionally and personally and I'm glad that you came out of it with new friendships ❤ waiting for that trip/move to Germany ;)
You were so fun with the boys in Chicago
I'm so glad to keep hearing good things about this band. With all the bands and musicians I used to love who leave a bad taste now that kinda ruins my enjoyment of them, I am so happy these guys seem to be as nice as I think they are. I so hope it stays that way.
Very Glad to hear the guys are as much of a pleasure to work with as is it is listening to their Music. Some bands make good Music and then are kinda assholish backstage (from my Experience as Venue/Stage security). Cant wait to be security for them during some of their upcoming gigs in germany next yeah hehe
That's what happen with genuine people.
im so glad to hear they treated ya well.. makes me like them even more
I was at the Montreal show and Electric Callboy sounded amazing! I had an absolute blast! I typically do not dance, but I did not stop for these guys, it was so much fun! My friends and I hung out back, by the bus after the show in hopes of maybe getting a chance to say hey ....Nico was kind enough to come say Hey, despite being tired. He was very nice about it, seems like a very down to earth guy. I did yell "Tannkkkk" to you when you were headed in the bus at one point but it was clear you were very busy and it was late and dark (sketchy! lol). Glad the tour was a blast, you clearly did a great job for them and hopefully it turns into something bigger for you! 💀🤘
So happy for you Tank! You´re such a nice guy, you deserve this and more!
Germans most of the time are direct and quite polite. that is Ruhrpott life style!
Brother oh brother if your voice was that loud on stage then your german was literally perfect. Electic Callboy really chose the best guy for this job and it was Tank
