Magnolia Electric Co. - Sweden, 2009 (Full Show) 

Im 62.. just found out about Jason and I am enthralled!!!

Every moment of every day youre missed, Jason.

I'd give anything to have met Mr. Molina. What a wonderful musician. His music touches me so much.

Wonderful gig..

Seems that most of you don’t know Molina’s life, you don’t realize this is one of the last performances before he had to quit and started going in and out of hospitals and rehab, shortly after this he was vomiting up blood and hes a few years from death in this video. He is clearly intoxicated, as a matter of fact he spent this entire tour “drinking, passing out, waking up and drinking, then passing out again.” As stated by a band mate. If you want to hear his voice in his younger years then go listen to a different video. This is for us hardcore fans who want to see his last moments, drunk and embarrassing or not. This man was mentally ill and he self medicated with alcohol, he died because he could no longer afford medical bills and was forced to stop treatment, causing the fatal relapse. Show some fucking respect here and do your research. Peace.

I love him. He’s depressed as hell, but trying to have fun. These songs he wrote carried him and his band did too, he was trying. Shame on any shame people toss around. This video has helped me a lot

Thank you so much. A fantastic talent, lost way too soon. Beautiful to watch. Tragic to know that his last live performance was just months later.

yo lo amo admiro y respeto Brutalmente.Un ejemplo de sencillez,sensibilidad ,solidaridad,compasion ,fuerza,tenacidad y amor .Cualidades muy dificiles de conseguir y mantener si es que no naces con ellas es el camino a seguir .todo lo demas esta demas .pon tu hombro si alguien tan valioso lo nesecita.

this kid is brilliant god i wish id seen him can;t get this man out of my head WOW what a band

Never posted a comment on RU-vid, but I felt like I had to for this clip. T.H. is absolutely correct, I was there as well and the show - at least for MEC standards, never got off the ground. After seeing him back in the States several times during the switchover to MEC, I was really looking forward to this show with great anticipation. As an American living in Copenhagen at the time, I sensed the band was simply homesick. End of August, Malmo was bleak, the weather was almost Novemberish outside. Not really sure if this film picks it up, but much of the problem stemmed from the poor vibe between the crowd and band. It started with the opening band, can't remember the name, but they were this sort of cowpunk outfit with a deep satirical streak, dressed up as a bunch of "hayseeds". Not sure if the crowd really got it, but Jason Molina loved it, after the end of every song yelling something like " Awwww shittttt" in amazement, urging them on, giving them support which was not coming from the crowd. From that point, there was quite a few tense asides between the band and crowd and the show never took off. It felt MEC wanted to be anywhere but at the venue. Yea, maybe JM was doing a Neil Young Impression circa Tonight's the Night with the sunglasses, but there was little passion or bravura to it, quite unlike his earlier performances I was lucky to witness. Looking back at it now, can't help feelin sad about that evening. But still, Jason Molina took the baton from Townes Van Zandt and still stands as one of the best American songwriters. Thank you kindly.

it is excellent to be good show and enjoyment for everyone who watch!! Terrific!! olympic champion!

I really enjoy pretty much all of Molina's catalog across Songs:Ohia and MEC, but Jason Groth joining the fold was really the missing cog that took them to the next level. I honestly think he's as much a part of the MEC sound as Molina, and his tone is fantastic here as well. Jason was having a tough night vocally, but that lead guitar tone is taking up the slack.

it is mind blowing. from the very start. fucking wow

Great upload thank you this was the era I first discovered his music

Oh god, I do miss this guy...

Thanks for posting! ❤️

Phantastic concert, I feel so sad cause I never saw the band.

It's hard to believe he/they didn't become a huge international act, but instead, he died broke and desperate. Talent doesn't always = success.

I love this band.

Pete on drums!

9:00 great lead

Got drunk and had nowhere else to go. I'm not kidding.I already talked to everybody tonight who's supposed to be in love with me. I came to this song like a magnet I never met this guy but he is a major force in my love and my love my life I was trying to save my life my life speech-to-text ain't always the right way to go saw that made pretty good lyric right say my lover my life which way do we go? Pretty dark right ? It is.... Save My Love or My Life ... I would never thought of this without Jason.... I'm going to send this song to my next dead chick. They tried but they couldn't handle it. Being married to me is such a chore. But you got killed in the end. Not by me. What up more. Keep trying anyhow I just keep trying to just keep working. Just keep working. All the seasons come and go. No water flow or it does not flow. I know a new season is coming in. I need it bad. Jason my friend. Told me that the new season is going to come in whispering whispering to me I know she's looking at me from right around the corner she's pretty shy but she's pretty cute.

JMo was drunk as hell there. Sad to see it, this was one of his last live performances. Still, as good as ever. Band was so tight.

This is quite stunning.

I think his voice is fucking perfect.

woah this is mind-blowing

Love this !

rip.

molina looks like the blind guy that larry david helps move in CURB with those shades on

ah sweetness

I really love jason molina, but I do feel like he was not performing his best here. His band was on point though.

What kind of guitar is the guitarist playing? Man I loved these guys, so sad.

💜

The band sounds great. So does Molina. He may have had some monitoring issues. But so what? Is this how some judge art, whether the singer is pitch perfect on every note? If that's what you are listening for you are missing the point.

Porn stache was badass. Sealed the deal. I was just too late.

Jason looks frustrated and trying to move the show along/babysit.

JASON EVANS-GROTH!!!! that's right yall

Beautiful show from the grenade-attack capitol of Europe

his voice kinda sucks the whole set...

Gotta say, musically they are intriguing but vocally very weak..maybe an acquired taste. He is not a Neil Young type vocalist, he is just can't sing in tune ... what am I missing here.
