This is still so... SO good. The last time i saw them was in Albany, NY like 12 years ago but I got to see them two nights in a row because they split the shows by albums and I had to be at both 😂
For anyone wondering what the title means."This song is about lead singer Jesse Lacey's fear that he will one day burn out or fall from grace.Diego Maradona is an Argentine soccer player who led his country to the World Cup in 1986, faltered due to drug use. Elvis Presley had a brilliant singing career before drugs and health problems took their toll. Both men had spectacular talents but lost it all. "
I always thought there was another underlying story of a guy who preys on drunk and vulnerable women at bars too? nonetheless, a story of falling from grace
only dicks are singing during this. I mean yeah we love the music but cmon this song is really sparse and intimate...and to Supaduck i agree with you wholeheartedly and I remember jesse saying something to the effect of I don't know who even made that record, who I was at that time.
that's why most musicians stop making music after a while or at least putting it out there. their "fans" are so entranced in what they used to be, now who they are.
