If the "Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle" era Springsteen teamed up to write a song with Jim Carroll, and they got Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham to play on the track, this is probably what they would have come up with. Great fucking song.
Seen them four times now. Each time is a great experience. Rarely do I see a band with that much enthusiasm. If you have a chance, see a show. Closest thing to a religious experience I've seen at a show.
read an article by Rob Sheffield of R Stone, he recommended this band. They are great. A rock band that mentions Mass, that's different. Always something new in rock, true, it's not dead.

Great fucking song.
I just discovered these guys about a month ago. Anybody that believes rock is dead has never listened to The Hold Steady.
The part where he slurs out "Hallelujah was a sexy mess" is the funniest thing ever.
Best band in the world.
most amazing song ever
It's awesome to see a band have as much fun as they do.

@sw2surf I totally agree man. Closest thing to God you will see on stage swinging a few guitars around.
@sw2surf amen. you get all tingly and shit. good stuff. BEST stuff.
Is Craig's guitar in the mix at all?
was Franz' microphone turned off!?
What show was this on?
Is it... ever?
fucking great. Is he pissed or just like that?
breadrollboy he was like that. But also very, very pissed. I think this is just before Tad’s liver packed in and the cancelled their Europeans tour.
