Vigilantes of Love / Bill Mallonee Nothing Like a Train

[hockeytown49341]

My favorite VoL song.

"When you find there's nothing special about that big hole in your heart 'cause everybody's got one, and precious little time to talk about it"

Brilliant, heartbreaking, yet not without hope.

I have only had the priv to hear Bill live ONCE up in Canada! Needless to say I think these video's are great...I think the experience ( seeing Bill live) is sort of like that old kids board game from the 70's "Operation" you pay your money and spend an hour pulling a guys internal organs out.

Thanks for putting it all out there Bill!

Played a bit on the sidewalk with Bill Saturday, He is a kind soul..

[somms141]

nothing like the leaves 'round your front

 door and the stages and the pages, you've been in love before and the things you feel inside these bones and those that won't leave you those that won't leave you those that won't leave you alone

[Juanofmany]

I'm just going to have to take a trip down to GA, aren't I?

[BillMalloneeNEWS]

That is one great back-up singer, Bill. She adds a whole different dimension to your approach...and a winsome smile!

[ITeachThereforeIDrum]

...again I state, I'm a drummer who loves the natural grooves of Bill's tunes. Always perfect. Thank you KEVIN!!! If you ever get sick or feverish in the studio...I'm a stick's throw away. Love you, man.

I thing Bob Dylan is the Bill Mallonee of the sixties !!!!

[oldetymer]

@eanessc Gotta love this comment !

[eanessc]

@oldetymer thx, Gonna miss seeing him here on the east coast as often. New Mexico is in for a treat having him there as his "home base" now.

From the Beg-Ta-Diffa File:

Kevin Heuer's work across the multiple records and tours we've done together is nothing short of Amazing; Throughout VoL's forays into Americana, pop, straight rock, folk-psychedelia and post-punk, Mr. Heuer has shown himself to be not only a drummer of immense talent ("Hat in Hand," is as good as anything Max Weinberg could do) and song sensitivity...but one of the finest human being to roam the planet and "pound the skins." I am honored to take any stage with him.

[CVsnare]

I am a drummer myself, who has been playing for about 35 years. In my opinion Kevin Heuer is a very tasteful and musical drummer that brings exactly what Bill's music needs. Too many drummers get in the way of the music by overplaying, Kevin's playing is just right.

[PaulWesterlaken]

O.k. I apologize for being too sharp, for criticizing... It apparently is not an objective quality thing but a subjective 'taste thing' that I shouldn't have discussed on the internet. Sorry again & I love your music no matter what!!!

[jeeperscrow]

Hey everyone has a right to their own opinion!!

[jeeperscrow]

So great to have VOL performing again....and planning a new album!! I'm pumped!!

[PaulWesterlaken]

Wonderful song, band & video! Thanks!

Only one problem: why always picking up such mediocre drummers? A more creative spirit would take these songs to hihger levels I think.

Hope to see them soon in Holland!!!

[jeeperscrow]

I've always thought Kevin is a pretty good drummer...oh well to each his own!

[earthsave]

An awesome drummer

[jeeperscrow]

And Bill has told me in the past Kevin is one of if not the most talented drummer he's had the priviledge of playing with!

[AzureMonk]

A great song by the most under-appreciated songwriter out there... Looking forward to the next release and new VOL!

[ITeachThereforeIDrum]

I LOVE this song. It's one of my BillFaves. That's hard to figure, 'cause the guy's written about a zillion of 'em. Every musician has dreams. One of mine is to play a gig or record a tune with Bill. I'm a drummer who loves the natural groove of Bill's tunes. Always perfect.

[jeeperscrow]

Fantastic once again! Thanks for posting these!!

[razbodian555]

Another great performance from the ever resilient Bill Mallonee. Voted #65 out of the "Top 100 living songwriters" by industry peers. Damn the blindness of the Commercial side of the Music business. Here's to the new VOL for those with ears to hear. Yes Yes !! Knock 'em Dead Bill !!!
