Kurt Vile - What's In My Bag? 

I went to see Kurt Vile in Ottawa. He was cool. I invited some friends of mine to the show. One of them said to me "So who is this Kurt Vile guy?" and he walked by and said "Oh that's me." and kept on walking. He was cool. His show was great too. Just him, a guitar and a looping pedal.

"One of em is for me, one of em for Adam my guitar player." This dude is legit

Anybody who likes Ween gets approval points in my book.

Is this the only time on "What's in my bag?" that someone bought Ween? Holy smokes, FINALLY! I think I've seen all of these and that may have been the only Ween sighting.

I couldn't possibly love him more.

I sang some Ween songs with Kurt Vile, while I was busking outside his show in Minneapolis a few summers ago...

i met kurt vile and the violators yesterday and shared a beer and a cigarette. he really is a great guy and really friendly! Its so rare to meet a musician who is so down to earth and self-depreciating. great gig and superb talent. jesse is super nice too!

Thanks to this video where Kurt mentioned Bert Jansch (who I'd never heard of before and am gonna go listen to forever now).

Ween AND Michael Hurley?!! RIGHT ON! Ween is my all-time favorite band and Michael Hurley is easily my favorite singer-songwriter (he doesn't get enough recognition, IMO).

so much respect for kurt vile knowing hes a weeeeeeeeeeeeen fan !

Yay I love that Anne Briggs!

Kurt Vile is the man. I listen to Pretty Pimpin at least once a day. NO JOKE. ....

Top Choices sir..Anne, Bert, Michael Hurley, Fairport Convention. Can't go wrong right there.

Anne Briggs? This guy gets it.

Kurt Vile likes Michael Hurley.... My life is complete

Those that do not enjoy Ween are not my friends. Love ya Dean

LOVE that they play "she wanted to leave" in the end credits

Kurt is down with The Brown.

The Mollusk. Awesome!

I love Kurt. Just realized how much he looks like a young Rory Gallagher too.

The Linda Perhacs album, "Parallelograms", is perched in the background on the right. If you like Anne Briggs, Perhacs will not disappoint.

Kurt looks so 70s in a good way.

Love him even more now he gave props to Ween! 👏👏👏

Kurt Vile. From Philly.

I love ween’s use of the pitch shifted vocals, not many people experiment with that and I wish more would

What excellent choices

These clips are addictive - it's good to hear your favourite cool artist speaking enthusiastically about music

The Mollusk by Ween is my favorite album ever.

Cool guy. Fairport, Bert Jansch, Annie Briggs and Michael Hurley.

aw man this was beautiful

Kurt viles the man.... Non stop listening to his stuff for hours !!!!!

that record store is a corner of paradise, I could go crazy there... great choice Kurt!

I love ween, so funny

Hell yeah! Weens the bomb

ONE NIGHT BY CHANCE I SEEN THIS DUDE PERFORMED AND IT WAS AMAZING.

so stoked he picked out ween- the mollusk

This video got me into both Ween and Michael Hurley 😭

holy shit he's a ween fan too. i can't believe I'm just now finding this out. Mollusk and the stallion suite are some of my favorites!

Bert Jansch is so great

I hope he picks up a copy of Michael Hurley's "LIVING LJUBLJANA" released in 2018. He'd loved it :)

what a dude!

He is one of the most incredible contemporary artists. So amazing.

Enjoyed this one.

wow thats crazy TV Ghost is a local band where im from

THANKS KURT!!

Seems like a sweetheart of a guy

Excellent chuckle at the end! I love Kurt Vile, nothing I've heard from him has disappointed yet.

philly! kurt is an amazing artist

Ween FTW

Kurt!! Great taste.... well done!!!

The 2018 new work from him, is one of the best!

yo dude, he's the stallion

cool video and good picks.. kurt vile is the man..

you should listen to pentangle thats what got me into bert jansch simply amazing

WEEN! Fuck Yeah!

WEEN

All these picks are great

Ha. Ive seen TV Ghost play in Lafayette Indiana because im from there too. Sweet band.

WEEN!

Kurt's cool and authentic... be yourself y'all. peace

Kudos for all of the great British folk rock.

he's such a Kurt

One of the other members of Grin not named Nils Lofgren owns and operates an independent record store in the town I live in (Frederick, Md.) called Vinyl Acres in a basement shop on one of this city's main streets. I hope that he has good business insurance 'cuz he's been unable to operate for three months now due to the COVID-19 outbreak and still hasn't even though Md's social-distancing restrictions have been relaxed in recent weeks and the lockdown lifted. I'm worried that the couple of months in which he couldn't legally operate during the lockdown might have killed his shop.

thanks Kurt, i'll look 'em up

"Some licks!" love that bit

Anne Briggs, Fairport Convention...and Bert Jansch. Wow, this guy is my kinda guy.

Almost all choices on the Folk side but i guees that's the way many of us operate when buying records on a particular day. What impresses me is that he seems to be such a great and down to earth guy. Not bad for someone who for many has released the best Rock Record of 2013...

Spent the last 6 days listening to his new album "Smoke Rings...." Very Cool. Nice Stuff. My new favorite artist!

hes so adorable sheesh

I do declare...

such a nice guy

Mollusk. Damn straight.

Now on to see what's in Courtney Barnett's bag.

One of the guys who was a member of Nils Lofgren's band "Grin" (I only know his first name, Tom) now lives here in my town, Frederick, Maryland, and owns and operates an independent record shop in a small basement space called Vinyl Acres!

finally a" whats in my bag" whos not afraid to like tasty music.

One day, I swear Imma see Kurt in concert.

Top man ❤️

Nice T-shirt Kurt!

beautiful hair!!

I wish they would reissue Michael hurleys catalogue again 😢

man, he picked awesome shit

That ween album is pretty great. They might be the loudest band I've ever seen live. Loved the tunes but I had to check out after 4 or 5 songs.

Man i would love to share a beer or a glass of whiskey with this guy! He's so damn cool.

i like the part where the song goes, "dont cress the weasel, and dont fall too soon , dont seek the blood of the panther.......etc. ace tune, nice choice...

WEEN! (Respect)

Outtro is a great song from The Mollusk - She Wanted To Leave

I'd love to be that seemingly chilled and happy go lucky.

he's so cool

This just stacked up important references for me. Kurt Vile > Anne Briggs > Willy O Winsbury > Meg Bairds Cover. It was like he unpacked my brain

can't wait to see this bloke at JJ's Bohemia Nov 12th!

Get the Linda Perhacs record in the background for the love of god.

Anne Briggs ! And he knows that guy from Espers, that doesn't really surprise me. :)

His hair is so beautiful...

Almost got to see him open for Thurston Moore last year. Was too broke to go and am now kinda bummed about it...

I kept staring at his face wondering who he reminds me of. A skinny Johnny Vegas. Tell me I'm wrong.

Kurt Cobain and Neil Young had a baby! Congrats guys.

What we need is a new Espers album.

that a great guy

Crushable.

Thought he would buy some John Fahey, but I can dig Burt Jansch too
