Don’t put so much pressure on yourself & don’t take yourself so seriously. Although I do enjoy the music and festival aspect of these vlogs. I treat it more like a real life inbetweeners and the best parts of these vlogs are the real life scenarios you get into. Having to sleep in a van and chundering everywhere is why I watch. As someone who is from Yorkshire and moved to California, you make me feel like I’m with my friends back home who I miss. Just go and have a good time!

Best bits for me are the banter between friends. Don't feel that you need to always get fucked up to make a good vid 🤷‍♂️

[@lauren11112222]

Kellas mistaking acid reflux for a gastric bypass actually made me belly laugh and It wasn’t even supposed to be a joke. Anyway thanks for the laugh guys, keep it up

[@bcfcbennjy99]

Take it easy Rob and the rest of the lads. Don't push yourselves too much getting fucked up each night for content. Look after your body and minds more than ever in your 30s boys!

[@ryanmetcalfe9486]

twenty tens to be precise! Definitely take care of yourself lads!

[@zaclunawoodward]

Hope you're doing much better Rob, you and the boys have put out some incredible content and you continue to do so. Takes a lot to speak up about your mental health and when things get out of your own control and I'm sure I'm not the only fan who will say this but we're so proud of you lot. Keep smashing it, enjoy Download, can't wait to see the vlog!

[@hazbutler]

“And the nominees are” While running in the rain, that was pure gold. Spinal Tap couldn’t have done it any better. Just be yourself lads, never change.

Can we get a new series of Dan and Varley doing history tours? I learnt so much

[@TPD]

ERROR CORRECTION - the merch is available till FRIDAY, not ‘one more day’ like the video says!

[@oli0808]

£32 for a t-shirt? I wanted one too, shame.

[@S0mewhat_Damaged]

Jesus, Rob look after yourself. Although I will admit I was crying laughing at you two waking up in that van the next morning 😂😂

[@laurenpeel4388]

honestly Rob hope you're doing well, everyone just loves watching you lads have a cracking time and being yourselves and having a laugh. Chin up and have a cracking time at Download, enjoy the vibes and be in the moment!

[@marcusvillain1119]

The content you boys create comes naturally, because your a group of mates having a laugh and chatting shit to each other. Don't feel so pressured into recording footage you think is good , just record whatever and whenever you feel like it. All of us here would rather you guys enjoy yourselves and de-stress, you certainly work hard enough, If that means recording less then so be it. Remember that the Health and wellbeing of you and the boys comes first, content second.

[@owainevans7339]

I have been so excited for this video to drop, and the ones to follow in the next few weeks - let the amazing content roll! Editing is sooo good on this video too. Amazing work guys!

[@helloimbirdy6152]

"Why are you dressed like wrapping paper" really caught me off guard 😂😂

[@ColtonFromTexas]

You all are the REAL DEAL! Appreciate the content and enjoy festival season.

[@michaelm148]

Stress gets to everyone and we all can end up doing things we regret because we are stressed. Fair play to you for acknowledging it and taking care of yourself. Far more than a lot of us do. Take it easy and enjoy the festivals. The content will come from your fun. I look forward to it :-D

[@jacobmacdonagh4070]

I am a big fan of Neck Deep and I was pretty sober and that was best time I’ve seen them for sure, really coming on as a live band. Deserve to be a proper Slam Dunk headliner on main stage

[@plasticbag138]

take care rob, i love you and your mates a bunch, its nice with even just laid back content so dont feel so pressured! ur all lovely

[@gingerelvis]

Look after yourself Rob you guys put so much into festival season and beyond it's easy to burn out. The content is always great when you lot are enjoying yourselves and just doing what you would at a festival, we're along for the ride what ever. If shit gets too much the lads will always pick up and keep things going.

[@spikeyak47]

We all have our breaking point man go download with the bois and enjoy it honestly there's no pressure from the TPD family you all do a sick job 🤘 stay safe guys look after one and other

[@jakegreenfield7083]

Rob I just wanted to come on here to say, you guys make incredible content. I’m part of the ‘new’ subs since the coachella vid and I’ve spent the last month binge watching all your old content and it’s all absolute quality. I’m not a massive music fan or a festival fan, but the enjoyment I get from just watching you and the boys having a good laugh is what has me hooked. The energy, the banter, the constant ripping the shit out of each other truly gives me so much joy to watch. Genuinely gets me through some tough days so please down knock yourself down, keep doing what you do and you guys are gonna go far!! Gushy stuff over with, keep it up shit cunts!!

[@ritch8088]

I am the same as you. They are a genuine bunch of lads who deserve every success. Have a watch of the Monopoly and Wetherspoon challenges. Great videos!

[@xplanet2112]

Have a rest and take some time off after Download, try to enjoy it while you’re there and just show us the results because for old people like me it’s great to see the mayhem. It’s understandable you will feel tired and stressed but please also go see a GP about the blood in the vomit, peace man. ✌

[@irnbdg]

vom in blood is most likely just from throat being ripped apart by the pressure of the vom, he’ll be aight

[@NothingButElliot]

Perfect timing. Watching whilst packing for download 🤟

[@stoikes]

Look after yourself Rob, take breaks at least. Mate, ha a very odd couple of months end of last year which I can only describe as being “mental dark” and wasn’t myself at all. Don’t worry about it, that’s the worst thing but its the first time I’ve ever experienced feeling like that and I feel good for going through it weirdly. Stay safe brother, one love xx

[@mathewjohnstone9633]

One last thing, you all put in the hard work for years, and finally get the damn recognition 👏 you all deserve. This is one bump in the road so fuck that off and do it tpd tv style for the remainder of the summer. Rob we love you, do you and get back to you.

[@lukehill449]

The best part of the videos is you lot naturally enjoying yourselves so make sure you just enjoy yourselves!

[@dovestone_]

Please don’t put pressure on yourself and stop apologising Just focus on enjoying yourself We enjoy whatever content you put out

[@n-dan-fs7041]

Sending love Rob, we all have our wobbles. Big respect for your honesty. You guys are the content, what you do is secondary.

[@lawrencebarnes3822]

Quality as usual, cheers for the honesty and look forward to Download! Enjoy

[@m4dela1ne]

Your authenticity is something I greatly admire about you guys and your channel. These things happen, take a break if you need. Don’t be so hard on yourself Rob x

[@DavChrlz]

Mental health is a super broad graph and you can plot everyone on it. Sometimes you do all the wrong things, think the world is falling apart, and the next day you’re on another axis. At the end of summer you’ll personally look back on this weekend as a useful blip, and a reminder of what you’re all about - there’s much more to come this year and you’ll make it stick as a career path. Not many people have accomplished what you’ve done boys, well done, and please don’t stop.

[@DavidMiloDoyle]

36:27 Fair play for documenting this part of it so candidly Rob. That’s real, relatable stuff. Can I make a suggestion that seems a natural next step within your lifestyle: it’s time for you all to go do Ayahuasca at Burning Man and have some profound epiphanies

[@ralphronald6296]

So cool to watch you guys watching Neck Deep. I’ve been friends with Ben Barlow since we were 12. Watching you guys rock out to them makes me so happy!

[@ibenolesen]

I love this authentic content ♥️ I have seen an embarrassing number of your videos since "the Coachella" video. I not really into festivals, i am not really into music - but I feel it is a privilege to get a glimpse into your friend group.

[@juliemartin9658]

Heres something to add to your packing list....Bitters. add a few drops to one of your sanpellys, every morning when you wake up from one of these festivals. I'm a bartender. I make this for hangover cures, all the time. Great for upset stomach as well! Keep on!

[@Mrmatthew4338]

That was beautiful. You gotta appreciate someone who still gets the footage no matter what, that was so honest, amazing

[@bluesensjays]

From Canada here. Used to go to a festival with the boys and miss those good times. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride with your boys. Cheers.

[@blazedoctopus158]

Class content as always lads, keep up the good work can't wait for the next festival vlog !

[@danieljones2411]

Great vlog as always, perfect viewing before Download tomorrow. Rob, look after yourself, the reason for doing this was to have something to look back at with mates, if the stress of producing something for the festivals and turnover for the channel does get too much it is okay to take a little break like you did. Also, if it takes away from the experience you are having, look at what you can do to maybe get that enjoyment of making content at festivals back again without sacrificing the good time you have at something you absolutely love. Download has Megadeth and Biffy, two of your favourite bands, I would much rather you live that to the fullest than having to worry about how a vlog will come out.

[@magsman448]

Kipping in the back of a cold, damp van is a sure fire remedy for " heads so far up my arse it's in the clouds syndrome " 👍 more people should try it!

[@gavinjanes4607]

Can't tell you wha discovering t your video's has meant to me over recent weeks. Enjoy bud, roll with it and appreciate the rewards of the effort you all put in.

[@tomevans1388]

Excellent vlog, it's like watching a movie, but rather than an up and coming band experiencing fame and the limelight, it's some KZbin vloggers. Never over think it, and keep doing the stuff you're great at. Oh, and everyone look after each other!

[@rdt999]

Rob- you are incredible! Please don't stress so much. I understand as i tend to do that but i have nothing to stress about as you do. Look- i am a patreon because of you. I love all the guys but you are the steering wheel. And i love it because it's not perfect and life isn't perfect. You guys live the life and i hope you are around when your 40 and 50 and still doing the festivals! And you allow us to see you at your most stressful and touching moments and that is why you have the best channel on you tube! I would love having a friend like you. So please, remember when you start stressing- This is what i watch for. Real true friends having a blast in life. Thanks forever. And i am from the Us and i cant get the merch sometimes. I get blocked out lol Cant wait for the next video and sorry for being so full of hot air :)

And everybody fucks up, thats part of the human experience. Be open, talk, listen and dont ever forget the core of all this, new adventures with good friends. All the best lads and much love from Denmark. P.S You should really try and visit Roskilde festival here.
