00:00We're in LA. We made it. Very excited.
00:02You know what? I came in, I saw that, and I was like,
00:06OK, cool, who are we sacrificing tonight?
00:13Hello Billboard, I'm Cruz Beckham and we are the Breakers.
00:16Come with us for our final show at Hollywood Cemetery.
00:30This is the official last show of the Point of Love Tour, so thanks for being here with us.
00:35I've been learning the Thriller dance.
00:37Show us.
00:39Nah, that's all, that's all.
00:47So here we have Jackie, our manager.
00:50Here we've got cousin Lib. Lib's taking photos of this whole journey.
00:53And this is the venue. How exciting.
00:56This is by far the nicest venue we've been in so far.
00:58I feel so privileged to be able to do what we're doing,
01:02to be able to tour with my boys and the people that I love.
01:04This being my first, you know, run playing live gigs,
01:08they make me very comfortable and I'm constantly learning.
01:11This is Ruffles.
01:11How is it?
01:12The tour would not be going on without Ruffles.
01:15He is incredible.
01:16This is absolute, this is absolutely correct, by the way.
01:19Show him the t-shirt.
01:22This is Harry.
01:23He's one of my oldest mates from boarding school.
01:26He is videoing everything and putting it all on YouTube.
01:30What's your favourite cruise moment this tour so far?
01:33I've enjoyed watching him.
01:35You can take it off.
01:36Yeah.
01:36I mean, my favourite moment every single time is when he plays Wannabe on stage.
01:50At the start, he was really nervous, like talking to the crowd and stuff,
01:53and now he's like really natural.
01:55I mean, I am filming, but I'm also like thoroughly entertained.
01:57So, it brightens my spirit.
01:59It's going to make me cry.
02:00It's so cute.
02:01Still a pussy there.
02:02So, we'll cut that out.
02:03Dario is the band core.
02:05He keeps us all grounded and you feel like-
02:08He's very kind.
02:08You make sure that we appreciate every single moment.
02:11He makes us cry the most.
02:13What are we talking about?
02:14Is that my shirt?
02:15Yeah.
02:16Okay.
02:16Dan plays bass in the band.
02:18And a big guitar.
02:19Yeah.
02:19I was going to say, you play bass in the band, but he's a multi-instrumental genius
02:24and producer and writer.
02:26One of Dan's strongest parts on tour other than music is finding good food spots
02:31and, you know, he spends a lot of time on TikTok.
02:35So, he's always got the recommendation.
02:37And now, we've got Telmo.
02:39The man, the myth, the legend.
02:41The panic.
02:43The panic.
02:44Okay.
02:44Nothing's forgotten that Telmo's here.
02:46Yesterday, we were trying to book in a date for a rehearsal and he said,
02:49Dan, I don't do calendars.
02:51I just remember.
02:52And this morning at breakfast, he goes,
02:54Oh, what was that date again?
03:02So, we decided to do suits because, you know, you've got to look good.
03:07Always got to look chic.
03:08I think the silhouette on stage is very, very important.
03:11And David Byrne, the way he looks on stage with his big, massive square suit
03:16is very inspiring, very incredible.
03:18For people that are going to be listening to our music for the first time,
03:21don't have any expectations, just have a good time and feel free to do what you want
03:25because, at the end of the day, the best version of yourself is yourself.
03:29Yo, that just came out of my ass.
03:30That was incredible.
03:41Frank Zappa is also a very big inspiration for me.
03:44He said once that when you're playing a guitar solo, you have a certain amount of time to fill in
03:48the space.
03:48You don't have enough time to think, you've just got to do it.
03:52And that's flow state.
03:53And I feel like that's one of the most important parts about playing music,
03:56is just being able to do it without thinking.
03:58There's like strings that tie us together when we're playing
04:02and like you're communicating like totally non-verbally and it's like a push-pull
04:06and there's like an energy that kind of flows through us.
04:08And it's just the best feeling in the world to do it with your best mates.
04:11A bit of advice we got early on was it doesn't matter if there's 10 people or 10,000,
04:16like you've got to play as if there's one person in the room
04:18and you're going to like give them the best possible show that you could possibly give every night.
04:22Everybody's so friendly and, you know, they've come to the gigs as a very similar appreciation of music that we
04:28do.
04:38We just had a single come out called Seeing Red.
04:40It's a pretty fun song.
04:42Yeah, I mean, it's the beginning of our EP that's coming out on the 21st.
04:45It's called Wear and Tear.
04:46We've got six songs, two of them already out,
04:48and we're just excited and we're grateful to be able to play them.
05:02I've got to say I'm excited for Loneliest Boy to come out.
05:05One of my favourites. It's one of my favourite videos of all of them.
05:08It's always a good time to play.
05:10I love the solo in it.
05:11I'm just excited for the EP to come out and then I'm excited for what's to come after the EP.
05:16We've got a song called Mr. Nobody.
05:18It's pretty fun.
05:27Boys, last show of the US slash Canada tour. I'm very grateful for every single one of you. I love
