  • "Be right back! Can you look after my friend?

  • I need to go to the toilet."

  • - Eddy: we couldn't decide if it was "2," or "two." - Brett: Yeah! It took us forever.

  • - Brett: This question went for months. - Eddy: Yeah.

  • Brett: Anyway, we decided to start making TwoSet videos.

  • Eddy: Our first video was like, 2 views.

  • - Eddy: One is from us. - Brett: Yes. On YouTube.

  • Brett: This started in an Australia state called Victoria.

  • Brett: Sydney's there.

  • Brett: Brisbane's here. Perth is somewhere here.

  • - Brett: And then... All of this. - Eddy: No one really knows what's here.

  • Brett: So these are all people laughing at us.

  • Brett: They weren't really laughing,

  • I think we were just being judged.

  • - Eddy: "Stupid channel, go overseas to practice." - Brett: Judgment.

  • Brett: That's my plane.

  • Brett: It was a struggle for us,

  • because we weren't sure, right?

  • - Brett: We really wanted to do these videos, - Eddy: Yeah.

  • Brett: and keep making more content.

  • Brett: But everyone... It wasn't very like, explicit,

  • but we could definitely feel the judgement.

  • We were asking people, "Please like our page."

  • Eddy: For two years,

  • I was in Queensland, you went to Sydney.

  • - Eddy: We worked in, uh... orchestra. - Brett: Yeah.

  • - Eddy: Except the entire time, I was actually editing. - Brett: Yeah.

  • Eddy: It was crazy. We had such little time.

  • - Eddy: I would be editing during intervals, - Brett: Yes.

  • - Eddy: editing on the bus. - Brett: All the time. Everywhere.

  • Brett: That's how we started TwoSet.

  • And then TwoSet kept going.

  • Eddy: And then fast forward to today.

  • Brett: We traveled around the world, on airlines.

  • Brett: Ah, did our very first concert.

  • All of this actually hap

  • Brett: Let's backtrack a bit.

  • - Brett: All of this actually happened from our - Eddy: Yeah.

  • Brett: crowdfunding campaign, where we wanted to

  • fund $50,000 to do our very first world tour.

  • - Eddy: So we would sleep on the streets. - Brett: On the streets. Yeah.

  • - Brett: Play music. - Eddy: And play violin 24/7 for a whole month.

  • Eddy: It kind of represented our spirit, we were like,

  • "This tour will happen no matter what,

  • even if it meant we had to busk

  • - Eddy: on the streets to raise it," as we went, right? - Brett: Yes. Yep.

  • Eddy: And we hit it in...

  • - Brett: 5 days! Luckily. Thanks to the early fans. - Eddy: 5 days. Thanks to you guys.

  • Brett: This was when we only had about

  • - Brett: 100,000 followers on Facebook. - Eddy: 100,000 on Facebook.

  • Eddy: I remember our YouTube only had like, 30,000.

  • Brett: So we were very small back then.

  • Brett: I mean, luckily we hit 50,000.

  • Obviously, 50,000 wasn't near enough.

  • - Eddy: Mhmm. - Brett: But we organized our own tour.

  • Brett: 'Cause some agent came to us and said...

  • Eddy: "If you were in it for the money,

  • - Eddy: you wouldn't be doing music," right? - Brett: Yes.

  • Eddy: "We get all the money, but we handle everything."

  • Brett: So we obviously said no, that's not fair.

  • - Eddy: He was a piece of poo. - Brett: Yes.

  • Brett: So that's our first tour.

  • Brett: We're still practicing. Always. Every day. 40 hours.

  • - Brett: This will never stop Ling Ling. - Eddy: Paganini prodigies.

  • Brett: It's not even Draw Our Life anymore,
