On the Bus With Tegan and Sara: A Tour of the Pair's Rolling Home

May 15, 2008 12:13 PM ET

Tegan and Sara had already begun packing up the bus they've been calling home while touring behind The Con, when Rolling Stone arrived for a tour Monday night, but Tegan Quin assured us it would have looked the same fully stocked. "Other bands come on our bus and are like, this is not a bus," she laughs, pointing out the labeled drawers for everything from "fruit" to "shoes," and the no-shoe rule on the tidy vehicle. Just hours before the twins' final gig on their current trek (after a brief break they'll appear at Bonnaroo and on Cyndi Lauper's True Colors tour) Tegan showed us everything from fan-made pinatas to the band's current obsession, a This American Life DVD. Click here for the full tour and live shots from the group's show at New York's Terminal 5.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
