Fair question. To be honest he ruins most live shows and makes the band look and sound worse. He's like the autistic band mate they just let have fun on stage
without a doubt my favourite song of theirs! Pavement is one of those rare bands that actually sound good live.. it would be amazing to see them in Toronto!!
I'd disagree. I've seen so many bands that sounded so much better live than on LP. Teenage Head, for those in Canada would be one. The Clash blew The Who away when I saw them open back in 1982. Other bands that I saw that left their recorded legacy in the dust would be The Lemonheads, The Talking Heads, The Rolling Stones (back in the 80's) Tragically Hip, David Bowie (Sound And Vision tour with Belew on guitar) and The Viletones. Just to name a few. That said, I wish I'd seen this band live.
I was thinking how Terror Twilight opens with this tune and closes with Carrot Rope. Great songs! But considering the lyrics of these two numbers (we probably should not spit on strangers or approach little boys that way...), it does seem like it was time to call it quits. And the brilliance continues with the Jicks.
wow. I had no idea that nickel creek covered this song. I thought they wrote it haha. I like this version (original version ha!) just as much as the nickel creek version.
cont... on the recording he says " a prize" I think he got messed up and started singing the prior verse...'I been thinking long and hard..." then goes into "you're a catch"
