I think they were the finest band of the 90's. I saw them on their reunion in KC it was my favorite concert ever. They mess up they joke or apologize, start songs mess up and start again. Just people making music to make music not to make money. They rock. Malkmus is underrated but he is amazing and still looks the same.
Yes Brinx Job!!! Different lyrics here than on wowee zowee, but probably the best song of the set. To me it's much better than what appeared on wowee zowee.
Die alte Batschkapp in Frankfurt. Mein Vater ist dort um die Ecke aufgewachsen. Xmal da gewesen und tolle Konzerte erlebt. 1998 beim Ash Konzert am Fuß die Bänder gerissen. Pavement: großartige Location für eine großartige Band!
always a pleasure to listen to Trigger Cut live! i've been on a binge of its live cuts since Malkmus performed it on acoustic for a Pitchfork special. P.S. this is my favorite Pavement video of all time. 1994 was such an incredible year for them.
Strange. I've heard 'Gold Soundz' a billion times, I was a senior in High School when this concert was filmed, but something about watching them live like this gave me chills!
One of the best nights of the 1990s was going to this club in Calgary Canada with some friends to have some drinks and finding out there was a big cover to get in because some band from the States named Pavement was playing that night none of us had heard of..surprisingly we paid the cover - unusual for us at the time - went in ordered some drinks, went out had a spliff came back in and this band of guys that well looked like guys we hung out with came on....& played like none of the guys we hung out with; sloppy but superb , well they blew us away. You could tell within 15 mins or less that here probably was a band that one would listen to for the rest of their life. And so it is.
I saw him in Montreal a couple years back. At the end of the concert, he asked for volunteers to come up to sing their favorite songs. An audience member got to sing "Shady Lane" with the Malk himself. What a legend. I then asked for "Range Life" and he shot me down. Such is life.
damn you lucky chum haha. saw a lot of stuff in my time as monitor engineer at paradiso amsterdam but never pavement. greatest band of the era bruv! Do check my band wondertrees its pretty cool. on Spotify obviously. Big hug Freek
thanx 13 produc?and particularly the german mixers 4 getting it right theres an earlier post of this show somewhere and some guy said hes watched this show thousands of times understandable really pavement kind of became a blueprint for decent indi and were massively influential although not superior to polvo/seam/ slint/june of 44 anyway rock on kiddies {splifa 73}
Pueblo. Or since it's the early version it would be Pueblo Domain, look it up on spotify or download it or whatever, I like it more than the Wowee Zowee version.
Very cool but I think their 2010 concerts as good as they ever sounded. It's amazing how they're called the best band of the '90s and yet so unlike any other band of the decade. I guess that's what you call being original.😏
Square Diner NYC Spring 1998...shit... shit... f my corp pager man...shit...I was the the one in the Navy Ralph suite... Dude...loved your stalking staring @me while stuffing mu face! Kiss
Seen Pavement many times. Their 1st NY show at The Pyramid was a shambles. Too bad my buddy, Gary couldn't stay on. He would've given them a great drumming sound. Too much to Young. Pun intended.
bob nastanovitch isn't just there to bounce around and yell, he actually does all of that weird beeping sound effects with his keyboard and you can see him being the second drummer in a lot of pavements songs. He's like the multi instrumentalist of pavement. Also, if you listen to brighten the corners or terror twilight you can really hear his influence a lot more on those records.
OutoftheblueNinja Excuse my use of the word useless, Bob is an essential member to the sound of course, I just always find it hilarious, his floating around. Wonderful musician.
