I was at this show. I asked them to release this video to the public because it's their best work on record. I know they have way cooler stuff that was never recorded. Thank you for the release. Oh...BTW,,,this was way before the American Dad show,,but thanks to Stan Smith for the exposure.
My husband was at Bonnaro right in front-not lame, my friend, everyone had heat stroke and/or were high from the fumes of baby wipes people used instead of showers. I'd rather hear the music than the crowd, anyhow.
Dude, this is NOT their "only good song." Hate to break it to you, but they're one of the most innovative bands GOING today; ALL their songs are effing awesome.
Once heard a really quick clip ofd this song and i was like, holy shit what is this? ive been trying to findout for like a week and i stumbled upon this. you can always tell if a bands good or not by how they do live and there very good
Anyone else hear the bassline that Sick Puppies use for "Riptide?" Don't get me wrong, I love both bands but.. sounds like they ripped off MMJ a little.
Anyone else notice that Jim James is using a different guitar (some gibson hollowbody) at short points during this video (around 4:28)? Must be filler shots because his Flying-V is what he normally uses for this song. Maybe he is just super good at swapping guitars in the middle of crazy solos.
I've always considered myself knowledgeable when it comes to music, especially because I never listen to the radio and rely only on Youtube, Pandora, and such sites to find new stuff. For some reason I never heard of these guys until Bonnaroo 2011, and I can't believe I'd been missing out on them for some long, as they absolutely ripped that show to pieces! Looking forward to 'discovering' their full discography and live shows, etc.
@JuanDeSoCal You know why you have never heard of them before? Because they aren't forced by a gigantic record label to produce mind-numbing crap records. Instead, they put out the music THEY want and therefore they aren't on Hot Radio.. I'm not picking on you, you understand? More people like you would like them if they were simply EXPOSED to them. There are 100s of terrific bands/acts out there. You just gotta look. Or go to Bonnaroo or Coachella.
Why does it show Jim playing two different guitars? Most shots he's playing the Flying V and then at 3:42 he playing an ES hollowbody. Anyone know what's going on here?
There's something about this song. No matter how many times I hear it, no matter what the setting is, I almost get teary eyed from the force this song is played with, and get an amazing rush of euphoria and just a rad sense of well-being. MMJ fo'life yo.
