The Decemberists - The mariner's revenge song (Live) 

Wow. Well that was the most freaking awesome live video I've seen.

What a band! Portland, you must be very proud!

I have revisited this 10 minutes at least a 100 times. I love the Decemberists

spectacular doesnt begin to describe that ending

3:15 look at the tall guy in the grey shirt bouncing oh my god i can't stop laughing for some reason

That is one cooool song!!!! I love this band!!

This is one of my favourite songs of all time

I very rarely comment...this video was AWESOME!!! Thank you so much for sharing!

They are so awesome.

I loved how they were all marching!!

this version gave me chills.

Only in Portlandia! Seesh that was just amazing.

Everything sounds so much better when it's live...

Cute how they act it out. SUCH a bad ass song. morbid, yet fun.

Totally awesome!!!!

this here is a band that has jump to my top 5 bands in less than a week...which is very impressive considering it takes quite a bit to get in my top 5

HOLY SHIT!! FAN-fucking-TASTIC PERFORMANCE!!!!!

This was back when they were having fun. BA-DUM. And they also had a good drummer.

I love Colin's jacket.

Love it

I can't get over how good this song is. AAAAAHHH. *explodes from the awesomeness* (... can you tell I like it? :P)

Still good in 2020

VERY GOODDD

This is why we get hooked on live performances by real musicians*. The performers bring us in and we become part of the experience. *not pop crap, autotune, lipsync, and 98% of what's out there.

Thanks a lot for your comment!

I wasn't much of a fan. My GF loved them. But I saw them at the HOB in Orlando around '05-06.. This was the best show that I have seen it was fucking awesome. When they played this song I almost shit myself.

the best (o melhor)

@oakfire12 i feel you on this one

Wow I can't believe that a person disliked this song, that's a lot more than I thought there would be

@PohatuJr agreed!

Terrible stuff happened to me... I havent been there!

they didn't sing this one when I saw them in Seattle

showmanship is different from "goofing around."

Their just goofing around up there. It is not a bad thing but it is a bit surprising.

her name is Petra Haden. she is, unfortunately, no longer with the band.

I like how he silences the audience with his hand! And they OBEY. HA!

Firstly, I do not think the Decemberists, not Decemborists as you call them, are in any way 'hipsters', I'm not even sure what said term even specifically entails. Secondly, I'm not sure why you are referring to me as one, I merely complimented his clothing choice for this performance.

I agree..Reminds me of where's waldo lol

The decemborists have earned the right to be excused from being hipsters. You have not.

It really doesn't, you have to really love the Decemberists to not care about his voice ;)

they sure know how to make being eaten by a whale look like fun.

hahaha...trust me... I've been listening to them for YEARS... his voice is flat on most of the final notes in the phrases... he probably has a cold or something... i've heard this song a ton and know what it REALLY sounds like when he sings it well... you have to really know anything about music to know he's out of tune ;)
