Hey, that’s us! Chatting up Brian & Tyler of Florida Georgia Line

A police escort usually means something important is about to happen.

Yesterday, it was Florida Georgia Line’s arrival in engine-roaring race cars to Monument Circle for a press conference to announce that, come September, they wanna party.

And they wanna party WITH YOU.

Get ready for FGL Fest, part of the Big Machine Vodka 400 at the Brickyard powered by Florida Georgia Line! The guys took a lap around the track at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway prior to the conference with Daytona 500 winner Austin Dillon behind the wheel. Tyler loved it, Brian admitted to saying a few prayers as their vehicle inched close to the wall at 150 mph, and he acknowledged that he may need a second pair of pants on standby next time.

We recommended not wearing anything white.

We asked both Tyler and Brian of FGL if they get much sleep with hectic schedules that include flying in for press conferences and attending awards shows, recording new music, etc. We were surprised to hear their response! Would you believe both are usually in bed by 10 pm? (ish) The guys value their sleep, and get a solid 9-10 hours before waking for the day. (It also helps that they flew in on a private jet, which is clearly efficient use of their time.)  We covered all the bases during our chat with the FGL guys, (including their DJ voice!) and you can hear the entire convo Monday morning just after 8!

We’re looking forward to a fun show (and race!) in September, because this is how we roll…

Sorry, we couldn’t resist.
