@clint sauunders whoops, i knew that actually. My dumb ass just forgot that 'Jim' stood for 'Jimmy', a.k.a Jay. I thought he meant someone else. My bad. Anyway, r.i.p Jay, i just saw his documentary 'better than something' and it once again made me realise how much i miss the dude.
Most drummers who chose punk had to be in shape, had to keep the ship on course... good examples were Lucky Lehrer, the first Circle Jerks machine. I used to think they sped up the tape, but watch him in Decline of Western Civilization and he really was unreal. Betzger of Jerry's Kids was a jazzy Neil peart who just played 100x faster. Early Butthole Surfers used two standing drummers who sounded like a 4 armed drum monster. Adam and the Ants are known for the tribal beats that really legitimize the Ants and the early lineup. George Hurley of Minutemen, Stephen Morris of Joy Division/New Order... Allen Myers of Devo could hold a tight beat and not lose a nanosecond for 5 minutes or more
I saw the last Reatards "show" and an early Lost Sounds show. They were cool and did an early set on our radio show (it's on here--wbny) then a intense and stand back set that night. Jay liked to party and credit the Oblivians guys for trying to get him to stay alive. Alicia is half of that band that was the first to show his talent. Sucks she never got proper credit
This is the most hype version of Its Easy ive seen yet!!! Fucking Lit boyz!! I bet jay is in another dimension somewhere still Rockin the fuck out💪🎶Rest in Peace jay!🎶
I laugh thinking about certain people hearing this guy’s name and then preparing to make him apologize but then how disappointed they are when they find out he is dead.
They still would be disappointed even if he were alive. Jay definitely wouldn’t of been the type to make a Tweet apologizing for some minor shit like his stage name.
It happened in Toronto and the kid was begging for it I couldnt imagine being at any bands show and jumping up on stage to impress your stupid friends knowing Jay is not going to take it well. Most bands guitarist's or the paid security goons would fuck you up, proper...then word is out your city is "trouble", watch your gear and be ready to throw. Jay was no more violent to the audience than 99,% intense bands would react. I think he's addressing one of those incidents as he gets out on stage. It's not cool, but had to be done
Honestly guys. Check out Doug Hell. He's a lofi guy from Canada. He's fairly fucked in the head but writes the best lofi pop songs you'll ever hear. He just put out an album called "As I Walk Through The Valley Of Life I Will Fear No Good". It could be bookends with Blood Visions.
oh it's the boss delay trick you are correct. a dd 6 or 7. you have to use the loop function. play a note and let go so it will loop it that way. or something

Sucks this guy passed away, he had so much potential.
Such a talent and showman.
Sucks you passed away Jim. May the heavens flow with the liqour and the winds roar of shit!
@@DylanJ138 how do you know he passed away?

he was beast in stage, man!
after my unhealthy obsession with this dude and all his projects i'd have to agree
the drummers so awesome
Never to be replicated.
Coolest bass homie
Best version of ugly death I've heard.
Trying to play along to this on drums is a lesson in muscular endurance, which I don't have. Super impressive
DiamorphineDeath its just impossible
His drumming, shit man. Look at every single song he had. It's so tight. No horseshit.
Try to replicate it, you will fail.
The fucked up part is he was always in time. His records were polished.
A lot of learning how to drum is learning not to over exert yourself

Its such a Shame that a young and talented musician like Mr. Jay Reatard passed away at a very young age with so much potential. Rest in peace Jay ;)
its a damn shame. however, he was so prolific that he created more music in 29 years than most people do in 50 to 70 years.
A great loss. Thank you for posting.
I give it less than 5 years and this video will get 5 mil views 🤟 rip jay
rip jay love u.
Love, love, love the videos of the 3-piece lineup. Three words: Billy Fucking Hayes.
That was amazing, they can really put on a fucking show. RIP
Got one of his records from Sonic Boom. Cashier told me a few people still working saw him play here. Very cool, thanks for sharing.

Blows my mind to think that he'll never be around again. He was born 2 days before I was.......
This is the most hype version of Its Easy ive seen yet!!! Fucking Lit boyz!! I bet jay is in another dimension somewhere still Rockin the fuck out💪🎶Rest in Peace jay!🎶
Jimmy Lee was such a bad ass!!!!!!
Playing this in my headphones. That’s all we can do you guys. So sad about it.
I laugh thinking about certain people hearing this guy’s name and then preparing to make him apologize but then how disappointed they are when they find out he is dead.
Even if he was alive he never would do that
Yep, if he got big just 10 years or so later he’d get hounded for his stage name lol
They still would be disappointed even if he were alive. Jay definitely wouldn’t of been the type to make a Tweet apologizing for some minor shit like his stage name.
"Violence is a bummer" *kicks dude in the face in Vegas and smashes disco balls*
Lucas Crossett ya he kicked people who fucked with his gear mid set. I would too
It happened in Toronto and the kid was begging for it

Hell, I'm a nobody and I planted my headstock in some chests who got a bit too close
He said violence is a boner
Security was trying there hardest not to move around
I love seeing security goons who are clearly not sure about the music they're guarding
Rip
this must be the grunge revival
3:10..... how he do that
prob a delay or loop pedal where you can hold the note
Looper pedal... he uses it several other times throughout the video if you're paying attention
We miss you Jimmy say hey to Malcolm for us.
I wish you were still alive, Jay.
Onde consigo esse dvd?
Where i found this vídeos?
Anyone know where I can get that skull shirt
Holy shit your pf is the same hahaha i just noticed. But for real where can we get this printed?
Good.
how exactly do you add the octave loop of that loop at 0:48?? and aswell the looping feedback at the end at 4:40??
How many delays is he using?
Might have some sort of octave pedal and a loop
I think it's the pedal he used I think he used the digitech dl-8 delay/looper
what does the bassist say i cant understand him at 5 mins when the song ends then jay says what and shut up
+Able Terra who tf is going to be able to hear that?
Able Terra "dont take my peppers god damnit"
Able Terra "dont take my peppers god damnit"
isnt that the bassist from Wavves?
Yes
+Bellonius .Funk He looks a lot like the guy from Napalm Death.
+Bellonius .Funk drummer used to be in Wavves for a while, too.
Honestly guys. Check out Doug Hell. He's a lofi guy from Canada. He's fairly fucked in the head but writes the best lofi pop songs you'll ever hear. He just put out an album called "As I Walk Through The Valley Of Life I Will Fear No Good". It could be bookends with Blood Visions.
@professorschuler some digital delay delay and fulltone fulldrive 2 im pretty sure
Bassist from Wavves is wearing a Quintron shirt? This must've been after I saw him in my local scene because he went by Mr. Quintron then...
Mumbles Slam October 2008
I think the music sounds better with two guitarist though...
or synth, Lost Sounds were great. Alicia, Oblivians guys really harnessed him into a great songwriter
Oh fuck they flashed me. right through the fuckingbox.
+Abby Vdn didnt know they could do that.
3:08 How does he do that? What pedal do i need?
i think is a delay pedal... with a lot of feedback and short delay time it creates that oscillation noise or whatev.. i think
oh it's the boss delay trick you are correct. a dd 6 or 7. you have to use the loop function. play a note and let go so it will loop it that way. or something
Yup, I have a dd6 now and figured it out. It's awesome!
Dude Ripit They're great! Thanks!
Seems like a really short loop
Hearing damage.
Jay was where that ginger from UK got hip to tape.
did he die just from coke and beer? he didn't even smoke sacremant.
They said in the doc he smoked crack cocaine and truckers speed years before he died..
forcing tempo to be fast, so fast he cant even sing to it, godbless
jj hardy disliked this
neubrain11 i hate the shit out of him anyway
this is so good. considering their equipment sucks.
Really good equipment actually
snab
Do you even know how much their amps and guitars alone cost?
