(I don't know why the original setlist had 'Talking In Your Sleep' on it, as it's definitely not in the video.)
daleksunshine I appreciate you.
daleksunshine dude I read this and got so much more excited for this video !!!
daleksunshine Thanks! And for reference the talking before the sign is more like 1:06:54 (I enjoy his patter)
daleksunshine you're awesome!!
You are a hero
"Oh I'll play that shit fuck yeah." I love you John
this remains the horniest tmg concert in recorded history
I dunno, doesn't have Going to Queens on there
*edit* Just got to the panties, I take it back
You a McElroy fan? Or do other people use horny I odd ways? Or was this actually a horny show?
Good question, what actually qualifies as a horny show? 😂
Commenting again after 3 years, this is still my favorite way to listen to the mountain goats, this specific recording.
I came here because I love these guys, but also as an audio engineer, I've got to say, the drum tone on this video is incredible.
when wurster hits the snare and floor tom at the same time my brain explodes cus it sounds so fuckin huge
Four years late, but the Mountain Goats show I went to in 2016 set a new level for "good drum sounds" in my brain. The first kick punched me in the gut in a way that no show ever had before, and very, very few have since. Their whole live show sounds amazing!
I used to live three blocks from this venue, the sound was usually v good.
@@hhhazel oh my god, hazel youtube is a mountain goats fan??? this should not surprise me but it is still so amazing.i love your videos!
Wow, starting the set with Michael Myers Resplendent is def a power move I love it
Was pretty common during this era. It had just won favourite song on the album on the old mountain goats forums and John was particularly fond of squeezing such poetry out of trash movies as he regularly said on the forums back then.
He fucking loved doing that at the time and I have zero criticism of it
This is, I think, the best live recording I've ever seen of them playing, even including when John is playing solo. If anyone has others that are this high-quality and where he plays a big range of songs, I'd love to see them.
+Paineopticon Swedish American hall 2 25 09
great list of songs including golden boy and the best version of store I've ever heard
assuming you don't know about it already, I mean it is in the suggestions
Awesome thanks!
I enjoy that one as well; I just wish it didn't have audio issues(repeats for a few seconds in several spots). The version of dance music he started playing in that was the best version I've heard on YT but unfortunately he didn't finish the song.
The band is having fun, the people are having a great time!
This is so awesome
I'm here 7 years too late, fucked up as shit, I just want everyone to know that I love them
oh shut up. this music is funny, it's comedy lighten up you buzzkill
I entirely disagree.
you don't understand the music then. this is parody, not to be taken so seriously
That's just undeniably wrong. What about this is parody?
? it's like weird al but for indie/folk music, like he's parodying everything that bands like mumford and sons and of monsters and men do, listen to the lyrics
I love the rhythm of his voice when he says "thank you John for that good information"
the aggressively thankful heckler is a lot of fun.
i must have watched this video at least 20 times by now
i watch this whenever i'm feeling in a tmg mood and it cheers me up so much every time
I could listen to this all day!
one other note to youtube, if you think putting an advert in the middle of a song is going to make me want to buy the product you are SORELY mistaken.
I think this is the best Quito I've seen here. Thank you.
This concert is life. Amazing. "So Desperate" isn't even one of my top ten favorite TMG songs, but this recording of it means everything to me. Thank you for sharing, and I promise to see a concert the next time you're in St. Louis (or Memphis), John! It is a lifelong dream of mine to see you in concert. Okay, enough fangirling. XD
I wish they could record all their hits in a indie/grungy sounding album like they did in this show
This concert is one of my favorites of his done live. And my all time favorite version of California Song.
I got my tickets to see them in April here in Orange county California. Been on my bucket list for a while to see the mountain goats live and I'm getting psyched up by watching this video.
Amazing. Best band ever.
...and you, or your memory. I still think about you every fucking minute of the day.
You've heard of Stage Presence. This is the definition! He/ they just OWN the stage!
Lovecraft in Brooklyn never fails to send shivers down my spine. tmg are fucking awesome.
Brilliant!
Love his commentary on Quito
"Downtown Seoul" is one of the finest songs ever written.
This is what real music is!
I actually thought 'What's happening Patrero?' was part of the sing just because I've listened to this specific recording so many times.
i love the fact that he has an eyehategod shirt
I REALLY want an audio cut of that version of The Sign. That was amazing.
I haven't gotten to that part of the concert yet so this might be way off base (maybe you knew this existed, and it's just this particular performance that you wanted), but John did cover The Sign in 1995 for "Songs For Peter Hughes." You can find it as the last track on "Bitter Melon Farm", which is on most music streaming sites.
John was DEFINITELY watching a lot of Mitch Hedburg during this time period.
lol all the banter is pretty much a straight up Hedberg impression.
Apparently, JD called this part of the tour the worst days of his life. Absolute rock bottom.
He talks about it in his conversation with Walter Chaw
I'm having trouble finding this interview, do you have a link?
@@gregoe86 I think it was with Walter Chaw about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but I could be wrong. Sorry I dont know for sure
ua-cam.com/video/jA4d4sr4YCk/v-deo.html
@@danielclaro6049 Yes, I'm listening to it now! John mentions the concert and his mood at the time about 37 minutes in. Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/jA4d4sr4YCk/v-deo.html
I think this concert is brilliant, one of the best, if not THE best Mountain Goats concert. I am currently addicted to it!
He was absolutely *done* with mountain goats fans on this tour. He couldn't deal with this sudden influx of new fans.
Theres a bootleg that gets traded where he opens a show by saying "if you got into this band in the past two years, I hate you and I wish you nothing but ill health and family tragedy for the rest of your days"
He was definitely in a bad place.
"I'm willing to take bids for a fourth as long as it's not..." didn't even have to say Going to Georgia, audience knew well lol
I got to see him play it about 2 years ago in Atlanta. He said he would play it but made the audience promise they wouldn't record it. His reasoning was that he realized that not all song characters can be morally upright peolle because that would be bullshit and not realistic. But still condemned what the song was about. The things he does for Georgia.
Stellar!!
"Downtown Seoul," fuck yes!
Got to be my favourite version of dilaudid
the full concert g o d b l e s s
john darnielle is a damn genius
If I somehow could never listen to this show again that would make me very sad. I would buy an audio version of this if it was available, but for now I revisit on YT and listen to an mp3 file version on my phone/mp3 player.
Are you aware of the show on the Internet Archive?
@@kyle2 maybe vaguely but not really, but I used a yt to audio converter to download it.
@@jwest88 ah. Well it's all split and tagged on the archive! I don't think I can post links here. But easily googled via "mountain goats archive".
@@kyle2 Sweet. Thanks.
I love this concert so much. This ones my favorite and ua-cam.com/video/m2ul_Z1VMLk/v-deo.html is probably my second favorite.
The mountain goats is one of those bands that I prefer listening to live concerts of. There are songs that I love the album versions of like Lion's teeth, broom people and never quite free but I'm extremely grateful for these uploads to youtube. I enjoy listening to them while at work.
What a fucking rock star
So damn raw
The setlist in the description is really inaccurate.
Gordon Stearns I think it’s in the exact right order, but they stupidly did the timestamps starting from the first song....with actually began several minutes into the video itself. So every selection is several minutes off, despite being in correct sequential order.
Wow.
such impressive fuckin performers
california song was beautiful
Technical thing: When I am looking through the timings I see "Most replayed" - on this video there are two places...
And, yes, one of those is "I've got the sex".
The other is "The sign".
“Man, that sounds wild.”
PPH bass solo @1:05:50
that EYEHATEGOD shirt rules...
Brian Eno and Harold Budd at the beginning
I saw ‘I Saw The Sign’
when ya coming back to scotland john?!?!?!? :c
oh fuck I was in this crowd. why does it feel so long ago.
what is that clip in the beginning from? "oh man i despise that dude"

Is john darnielle a fan of mitch hedberg?
Anyone know what kind of guitar he's playing? Really like that sound.
Looks like a Fender Telecaster
Moral Kiosk
The acoustic looks like a Takamine (from the shape of the headstock), while the electric is definitely a G&L Asat Special,
cheers!
When the band actually sounds like the same band that recorded the studio version.
34:33
EYEHATEGOD shirt. :)
+PKX392 was just about to say that hahahaha
SAME! haha
fuck john is my history teacher. chill.
lovely being though
check the funnyness of that drummer
That bass recording is so bad.. but i love it...
I wonder what the hardest song for him to sing is, not vocally but with the content of its lyrics.
He said in an interview that he will never play Pale Green Things live... its about his dad, who passed away.
bakerbrown6 i swore ive heard him play it just once, on piano at some point.
He said Lion's Teeth was tough on Come, Come to the Sunset Tree
You're In Maya is really difficult for him - it's been in his cannon since the mid-nineties, but he's only played it a few times.
bakerbrown6 He played it during the Evening of Awesome, if memory serves.
Odd... Why did the mountain goats come up when I searched for Primus? Oh well still cool
Just came to listen to the *Strawberry* song... [ #downtownseoul ?]
I think you are referring to ‘I’ve Got the Sex’
@@Adam-ie5wy Maybe I was! Thank you for #IveGotTheSex
John you got groupies
Listening to the music loosely while I heard House Guest something seemed strange about it, so I listened again.
The first thing is the narrator is the woman's husband. Once you realize it, it hits like a ton of ***ing bricks. She's cheating on him, and he goes from being the best husband in the world... to a house guest. "Place my palms against your throat" at first gave me an impression he was choking her over the cheating - but as this event seems to pass with her still alive later. One can put their PALMS, keyword, PALMS, not HANDS, in a position where they'd be at someone's throat - it's a kissing embrace. In-between there's "her waning graciousness" which is... a metaphor for the cheating? She wants him out of her life? The way "Ease your thumb off the remote" is placed is strange. Is it a command? (she) eases (her) thumb off the remote makes language sense? She just generally looses her grip on the remote as nothing is on, and things are actually becoming "romantic" with nothing else to do? If he's asking her to do these things in his imagination, maybe he's asking her to help her commit his violence. It depends on where you think the palms are placed and where the thumb might be - palms against the sides, with thumbs on the same side, or palms in the middle, with thumbs crossing over to grip. In this video John puts his hand on the guests side - the kissing embrace, and he uses softer tones.
The rest of it... turns into a blur. I don't get what he does in her room she'd be ashamed to accuse him of? Finding the journal makes sense. "you were looking for proof about me cheating!" is self-incriminating... and one thing, unless we count all the places he looked... but these lyrics seem too intense and direct for that. Sex between them? I don't really get how she'd be ashamed to accuse him of it - especially with the following 'because she refused to love him'... He utterly destroyed things? The lyrics I feel don't imply that level of aggression, ironic compared to the "gentleness" of just finding the journal.
"Reject my love" and "You refuse, I accuse" feels obvious, though "you refuse" could be she rejected the cheating, or more poetically, and more likely I feel in Mountain Goats style, she refused his exclamations that she didn't love him - so he accuses her of cheating.
"Yes I'll leave everything the way I found it"... Much of the lyrics were about him not making a mess - which can be seen as there not being evidence he lived there. I'd be interested in any theories behind the song. A search shows this absolute beast of a song never got the attention it deserves.
