The Felice Brothers - Ballad of Lou The Welterweight

[SuperAntisocialite]

They're on some horse size pills tonight!

[SuperAntisocialite]

Ian Felice is my type of man. Skinny and sexy with a husky voice. Mmm I am just powdering my nose right now babe!

[SuperAntisocialite]

@SuperAntisocialite and I must add, his brother Simone is just sooo off the charts smokin' right here in this, what a song

[matilda628]

This song is actually very romantic- just don't sing it to a girl on a first date!

[partyhutz]

wieso tritt der fette nicht oberkörperfrei auf ?

[CowboyMartin]

@partyhutz

I'm sorry, I do not speak German.

[Waski1000000]

@CowboyMartin He asked why the fat guy isn't topless

[woodshedshooter]

Such a Great Version !!

[ebarn32]

this song is dope i smoked hash last night at about 3 in the morning and was just jammin to this

[justinmc16]

They are seemingly really nice guys. I met them briefly at a show, shook their hands and fist bumped Farley haha. Great performers, and the show was Ten bucks so can't beat that. Also, at Bonnaroo this last weekend, I watched their brother in law A.A. Bondy who is worth checking out

[akaGumboStu]

damn that's a trippy ceiling - it looks like the Mothership is landing

great version of this

with regard to the dylan comparisons - there is an intimacy in Simone's songs particularly that I miss now when I listen to Dylan. Beautiful lyrics. and what a great sound! This one is a little muffled but still lovely to listen to.

[CowboyMartin]

Most of the songs are written by Ian Felice. However, If anyone is interested, Simone has just released a book you can order from their website called Goodbye, Amelia. Has had rave reviews here in the U.K. He has also written a book of poetry which is very diificult to get hold of.

But yes, tripp ceiling, great venue the luminaire In Kilburn, London.

I've seen them three times (once with Bright Eyes, another with Conor and the Mystic Valley Band and the other at Bonnaroo). They are amazing and SO nice and sociable.

And yes, SO similar to Dylan. It's amazing. They're one of the greatest, new American bands

[imaswinginlad]

It gives me almost the same feeling as when I listen to Dylan.

[CowboyMartin]

I agree, I think he's the closest thing we have to a new Bob Dylan.For me his songwriting is on par as an early Dylan. The albums you really need to show this are their now unobtainable first two albums, Through these reins and gone and a solo effort from Ian called Iantown, both fucking brilliant with early versions of this song and others.

[Cavanaugh37]

the sound is definitely dylan-ish, but as for his songwriting being the closest thing we have to dylan today..... conor oberst?

still amazing. recently saw them in concert with conor, actually. and they were a real treat.

[RogerKaputnik]

This band is amazing!

[vballboy60]

the drummer is a real character

[maubarcelona]

wow, it makes me cry...that song it's so...whatever, but it's amazing

[Carminabebe]

i knoow!

[braindeny]

wow, I was there. As great as I remember, Felice rock man
