I wonder what Issac would have said if you told him, on that park bench in Oly in 1997, that one day Johnny Marr would be in his band and his portrait would be hanging in the mayor of Portlands office.
i really wish this documentary would have been more in depth even though modest mouse could give two shits less if it was lol but still it wouldve been nice for the fans(ME!!) seen these guys live and it was amazing(had to throw it in there :P). sad to see the camera man died :'( i think someone should do this again with MM to see how things have changed over the years. except maybe like a 3hour documentary. honestly idgaf if its 5hours im still watching it!!! MM > Jesus
@supermanJOEL2 So first you insult a dead person, when really he did a really awesome thing. And then you insult modest mouse, by watching a documentary about them and you don't even know their songs.
@summercool3 Reading back it, yeah what i said seemed a bit harsh, sorry. I wrote the comment like a year ago and i was new to MM so sorryyyyy for not knowing all of there songs.
Yes. Apparently Isaac hated him. Someone mentioned the doc after a show and Isaac said something along the lines of "I hate that fucker." or something, and someone said "Dude, he's dead! Give him a break" and Isaac just said "I really don't give a shit, I hated him."
Why did Isaac hate Rick? What I've learned from Isaac is he can be an asshole uncontrollably when he;s either drunk or stressed-out; there's just no justification to hate Rick Madsen - none whatsoever. He was a great guy - Isaac should be more courteous next time, shit.
@SuperUnison92 In the moment, Isaac has blew situations out of proportion because they had brought back memories he'd just like to forget, but I really honestly do not believe Isaac hated him, he just didn't know what else to say. He heard that Rick published/uploaded his doc and I'm sure Isaac felt some of his privacy slipping away... like he might've said something that could've gotten him in deep shit. That I what think.
Isaac seems like a really cool down to earth guy Id say I want to meet him but hed probably be annoyed meeting another fan and be a dick but maybe not.
No. It has been played live more than one other time. I have a show where they play it, but it is abandoned because the guitar cuts out about halfway through. They also play The Fruit That Ate Itself. I also know a woman who saw Modest Mouse in 97 (the show is missing on Interstate-8(dot)com) and she said they played it. She is an old woman who works at a record shop, and I really don't see why she would lie about it.
The best part about this documentary is not the music. Shit, we all know all of their music. What I find fascinating is his language, stories, at that age which humanize this person that his been made into a God. Thinking about how this guy who is borrowing a dollar to buy a beer is about to sign with Epic records after they release this album.
The whole conversation at the park made me realize that he's really a pretty normal guy. He doesn't just spout universal truths; he works a lot on the lyrics he writes. Sure he has interesting stories to tell, but it's good to know that when he's not in front of a stage he doesn't care about being center of attention.
@mynameisinept Yeah, it's very interesting to hear him talk about stuff and kind of see what he is like as a person. A while back I didn't really know anything about Isaac at all, and when I suddenly realised that he actually is a person with a life outside of modest mouse and has other interests than just music I felt kind of stupid, because earlyer he had just been "the singer in modest mouse" to me :p
"You should get one of them microphones", he's referring to a boom mic. I don't know what you're on about, perhaps you're talking about something else.
is it coincidence that they were talking about getting drunk and riding bikes and then Isaac put that in the lyrics of "Summer"? Probably, but hey I can dream

It's filmed in 'real-time' brief cuts, but mainly fluent in it's nature.. Like sitting right next to the guy and seeing a "day in the life of.." kinda.
wow this was amazing. who was Rick Madsen and what happened to him? incredible footage...Elliot Smith discussing Modest Mouse on film??! wow. thanks, Rick.
