I saw them on that tour. Will was sick during the toronto date so they got the guitarist from the dandy warhols to fill in. Piss me off wanted to see Will too. Still was worth it since at the time Mac still had one of the best voices there is or even will be.
I was one of the two original bartenders,joe being the other.The place flat out rocked.Max the wunderhund,naked afghan wigs.Shit wiggy monkeys.Warren Zevon,god rest,said it was the worst dive he had ever played.greg fish yallllllll
To make sure the facts are straight (I'm the bartender in the yellow do-rag...ha) - Video shot by the Manager, Dan Sherwood, during the soundcheck at "The Reptile House" in Grand Rapids, MI. Dan can be seen behind the bar with me. Other people - Dan's wife Molly with jacket around her waist. Pony tail guy in white shirt is Ron Hurd, current monitor guru for Slipknot. Guy in striped shirt is Rick Tipton, house sound stud for Billy's in GR. Guy in black shirt with a beer is Al Briganti, the owner.
looks like a sound check, doesn't matter!! - Thanks for posting!! - really glad some of their live shows were filmed!! AWESOME!! Great band before the Bunnymen re-united! - Ian & Will are Geniuses!!
Great band! This video was shot by Dan Sherwood manager of Reptile House in Grand Rapids, Michigan, during a sound check there. It was not at Jimmy's. The Reptile House was a great venue for bands and is Missed.
It WAS a soundcheck at a place called Jimmy's in N.O. in 96. Nobody knew the camera was on. I'm the guy on the ladder doing the lighting. The show was a Smash!
