Um, playing at the Fonda, um, I actually had never even seen a show here before. Um, so I'm super excited. Um, super stoked for all the people that are coming. Hopefully I'll get a chance to see some of my friends as well. Um, but it feels good to to play a show that's on the map in Los Angeles with Fan's Joy. And um, having only been here two years, I feel like it's a cool accomplishment. I'll be a better man today. I'll be good. I'll be good. And I'll love the world like I should. Yeah. I'll be good. I'll be good for all of the times. That I never could. Hey, I'm James Young. Welcome to my Young Hollywood backstage diary.

The strangest place I've ever performed, um, was actually at a hookah bar. It was like a really dirty hookah bar in Seattle, Washington, where I'm from. And it's kind of weird, um, sitting in like a smoke-filled room and singing and then coughing in between songs. So that's definitely the weirdest place I've ever played. Uh, being on tour with Fan's Joy has been really, really amazing. Um, it's kind of the first time that I'm seeing fans from like online and emails, um, at shows and just like seeing their faces is a is a really cool experience.

Um, you know, any advice I would have to other performers would just be soak up those moments because like those are amazing memories and you're going to have them forever. So. Actually, I got it uh, right after I moved in down to Studio City. Uh, it says "sober your thickly veiled mind". And basically, it just means don't be a idiot for temptation. Don't like throw away stuff just for like one cool moment, basically. Hey, I'm James Young. Thank you so much for watching the Young Hollywood backstage diaries.
