[SADamaza1596]

very interesting

[jtylerwaller1]

good recovery on the wrong fiddle for the song. You can tell it's in a different tuning than the one he picks up second. lol

[adamjoseph125]

Ah get born, keep warm

Short pants, romance, learn to dance

Get dressed, get blessed

Try to be a success

Please her, please him, buy gifts

Don't steal, don't lift

Twenty years of schoolin'

And they put you on the day shift

[adamjoseph125]

Great song. Sounds a lot like Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues.

[Ladyburg299]

out of the 307 people who have rated this video i can say FUCK YOU to two of em for disliking it...

[marialynn91]

I got to see these fellas live at Floydfest this July. They were amazing.

[TheGravygun]

[easttenndude2000]

I know some people who back in the day (before ocms was discovered)took these guys in they didnt have nothing but the shirts on their backs and they lived in a building in HAMPTON,TN and when they got their break and started touring they sent money bacck to the ppl who helped them in hampton they are great guys and deserve everything theyve earned

[GuitarxGodxGabrielx]

i smoked some high test last night...the effects are still lingering on me along with the smell

[dakrusch]

this is just great music

[jppriddy75]

reckon alabama high high test makes you forget you playin the wrong fiddle?

[cmntg420]

I love Willie's expression when Ketch starts the song with the wrong fiddle!

[boschbeachbum]

The kid looks like Buddy Holly in a wife beater lol.

[betzdoodle43]

OLCMS is a wonderful band. Such talented musicians

[upstatecryptonite]

shit is sic

[jambrochill]

holy shit that boy can't play the fiddle at all

[Sforeczka]

These guys are the rock stars of old time. My god, if I were 20 years younger.

[joshmasters420]

DANK!

[matthewbrock101]

@joshmasters420 I 2nd that

[trainrecked]

I think Willie switched that fiddle on Ketch...LMao!

[MrColeslaw91]

[adamschmidt88]

wow...Ketch was being a little douchey

[bukmomen]

@adamschmidt88 ketch was obviously stoned out of his mind. didnt notice that blank look on his face. i think he forgot where he was at. lol

[StareAtTheSun025]

I'm pretty sure if I was the radio dj sitting that close to them while they're rocking... i would have pooped my pants.

[MrFourwheeldrive]

1:20 guitar players lovin it, saw them in lou ky last year, old crow fuck ya

[LongHairRocker]

I bet the radio station was pissed about them playing this song. Look at the lead singer (can't remember his name). He starts with a little smirk on his face, then looks towards the DJ, lol. Awesome band! Screw radio.

[35hankypanky]

love old crow! if you dig them,you should check out honky tonk hustlas. They put on one hell of a show.Seen them last saterday and it was great.Glad to see hillbilly isnt dead.In fact,i think its gettin stronger.Hank III,Bob Wayne,Wayne the train,Lucky Tubb.Guys like that fight to keep old school alive in country music.And 1 of the things that bonds them all is the fact that hank williams should be reinstated at the opry.Please sign the reinstate hank form.

[mattppls1986]

The accoustics really are great in the bathroom...

[bubthunder]

@mattppls1986 That shit is true. I used to go record in a parking garage elevator room. Unbelievable acoustics.

[househarr]

[1989hnp]

I LOVE THESE GUYS! One of my all time favorite bands. As a young person that truly appreciates bluegrass i really admire these guys for not conforming and doing what they love. GREAT JOB GUYS!!

[crowezar]

Gimme that downhome homegrown WOOOOOT!....kick ass boys

[mtanis17]

I love how Ketch has the wrong violin when the song starts, Willie finds it hilarious.

[trainrecked]

Check out the facial expression on Ketch from 0:36 to o:47 ,git me outta here...

[trainrecked]

Hey, these guys nailed it. I felt their uneasiness about the dorky DJ dude' I don't know why these guys aren't BIG. BIG. BIG. I listen to almost all kinds of music, but I tune in these guys all the time.

[vinegaroon1]

He just changed key at the beginning. Like harp players do.

[Neweddy24]

I love how the fiddle player just want's this D.J. to shut up

[dgarrison1]

why does he switch fiddles in the beginning? out of tune?

whatever the reason, willie seems to get a kick out of it. haha

[whiteyinflemington]

this is a bad fuckin ass live

[suckmycod]

I love 'em...from Boone, NC Go OCMS!

[dpiddycanfly]

@suckmycod  Yeah, I remember seeing them at App State back in the day!

[suckmycod]

@dpiddycanfly hell yeah, I saw em in 07 in Boone and 09 in Cary, Awesome! take care

[bloscoe]

Cats are pretty cool. Never been a big 'country music' fan, but they were good...not too peckerwood.

[mgb77kdh]

[ThaDeeStylee]

[lettheirberock]

these guys are so tight as a group... seemless

[jdiggler1]

Screw moonshine....this is tennessee's best

[danielc121162]

Lmao " I Like playin on the front porch and I like playin in the backyard ,but I like playin in the attic too,.. I think the acoustics in the bathroom are really nice

[leitros]

WOW!!! When are they coming to the UK?

[Austin314ce]

[vinegaroon1]

I like the way the fiddle guy shuts down Lt. Dan

[xxxzapskimxxxtx77532]

go garfield !! this song is awesome!!! 5 stars!!!!

[jayjohnstrick]

im about to see these guys in like 3 hours, I CANT WAIT!!

[mars7980]

You're in for a hell of a show! I saw them last night in Covington at the Madison Theatre and have never seen a more intense group live!

[willsatan666]

THIS IS A FUCKING AWSOME SONG!

[cliffabrown]

The high test is some dank, dank stuff. i've smoked it many a time.

[alanjackson01]

[palmtreeman1]

LT. Dan....... LMAO! OCMS, YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!

[jlitt2003]

This is playing on my iPod as cops chase me with dope in my trunk.

[tiffanydarlene]

@jlitt2003 did they cetch you??

[nancymom]

Slammin!! As always OCMS delivers! Love em! Love em! Love em!!!!

[NaturalBornPredator]

Um, nah. They are singing about the wildwood cannabis flower. Down home dixie fried home grown. Cocaine is man-made from cocoa and will mess your life up like all man-made drugs. They dont make too much of that in Alabama.

[soxsfanmyman14]

your a fag

[marleyfan008]

Hope you get AIDS mother fucker

[almightyfonz]

alabama high test is coke man.

that YA YO

[PaddyGarciasPistol]

It's not cocaine dude. Alabama high test is in fact Marijuana.

[elmatto2006]

@PaddyGarciasPistol yaaa! =D

[dimebag2002]

@PaddyGarciasPistol nope my pal,, meth.. no one would waste the time to transport just a half pounf of weed.

[amd87]

@PaddyGarciasPistol I thought it was moonshine?

[BLOseisdiezynueve]

@PaddyGarciasPistol-----mmm..i love la yerba...and the energy of this joint!!!

[bromberg25]

i think their singing about weed! high test?

[zbipod]

I'd like to request "Crazy Eyes". Please.

[zbipod]

Dixie fried home grown?

I saw these dudes in Richmond. Kentucky, that is, a year or so ago in the dead of a Kentucky blizzard and it still brings a smile to my face. They've also brought me across me across Kansas a time or two on the ol' ipod. Boogie.

[deatheater459]

this mustve been like 2 days before i seen em live at the ryman last fall

that was a great fucking show i want them to come back

[ChaseGillespie]

This is a kick ass jam. OCMS rocks.

[Flanneljack]

FUCK NASHVILLE

but still ocms is great

[MrTeamoney2]

first time i heard this and i am lovin it! HAHAHAHAH

[floppyd0g]

These guys and Justin Townes Earle have been my big discovery of recent years.

Just love their music.

[CaseyLovesBrightEyes]

Love This!

[natewaggoner]

i bet these guys were on something by the way they're acting.

[fishgutdumper]

why the fiddle switch at the beginning? willy seems to find it comical

[shadedude88]

He grabbed the wrong one! The fiddle is tuned to a certain key and the one he grabbed was tuned to a different key than the song. Couldn't you tell he was in a different key @ the beginning.

[fishgutdumper]

No i couldn't, do you think I would have asked if I had? Thanks for the reply, dick.

[shadedude88]

Wow, see how that could have sounded like I was being a smart @ss. I just thought it was funny he grabbed the wrong one. You found out either way. Your welcome,

Dick

[thebetterhalf37]

yall need to chill.

[JoeMarshall412]

hahahahaa

[Freddy2415]

I think they are tuned different.

[pepeluege]

The best band out there right now!!!!!!

[melissar0811]

higher dan a wilecat

[mandajunemiller]

beginning at about 5:30 i start to become distracted by how badly i want to bite ketch on the back of the neck. and yes, i agree, they are phenomenal live.

[shortbus765]

These guys are phenomenal live.

[nancymom]

Yeah, I've seen them 3 times and I'm going to see them again this Sunday at Merriweather Post Pavilion!! Woohoo!

[fatdogtavern]

Been waiting for some new music from these guys for a LONG time now. What they do is pure magic. Wonderful!

[musicloverkathy]

I have Ryman envy. Darn. Big Love is my favourite show, one of the most intelligent things ever on tV. Aren'tt the acting and the scripts the very best.? For an establishment guy, Tom Hanks does some radical things.

[momsno3]

I wonder if they know they are commented on in the HBO show "Big Love" ? The character, Margene, talks about it in the "blog" she writes as an off-shoot of the show. It's mentioned on the main page of "B.L." -under H.B.O.-Jan 29, 2009.  Wow- you didn't know Tom Hanks (producer) knew you! Did Ya?

[Karmakanuck]

cruisin with a half pound

[croixboy96]

Wow! I'm in love! GREAT song and I want to hear much more of these guy. Cigarette, I don't need none of that! Give me some home grown!

[pdfleck]

Badass song from a crappy album. Bring back some OCMS proper boys.

[Grovetussen]

I loved the album!

[3mankill]

~How ironic that I should happen to be watching this at 4:20 : ) I love this band! Wagon Wheel is one of my favorites~

[jlitt2003]

These guys belong in "O Brother Where Art Thou?"

[jalapenos666]

One of the best bands going right now in any genre. No Doubt.

[newgeneration89]

awesome song!

[acdcrox148]

hey btw willie the guitar player is my cuz

[blafary]

Awesome band... This is their best song in my opinion... These guys are emerging and have a great future... The sky is the limit...Controversial lyrics with amazing jams... Im sure these guys have a very strong and loyal fan base that is growing.

[chrisbigspencer]

this is great..

[freighttrain76]

love old crow they are realy good

[ccmillard]

Ha he was playing the wrong tuned fiddle for the intro. You can see him get the right one.

[StunkDroner]

someone down rated your comment for some reason... The fiddle flub is noticeable but he fucking kills it after! Goddamn I love this band.

[jleeme]

their new stuff sounds sooo much better live.. awesome video, these guys have fun

[amysayani]

Where in the hell is Critter? He was the cool one.

[anotherYTwatcher]

Critter has a BAD drinking problem and is out of the band because of it. OCMS did a show in Europe and Critter did not show up because he was drunk somewhere. And many other issues...

[amysayani]

Oh. That's too bad. Critter was always so nice after the shows, and would hang out with the fans. He didn't seem to have a problem, but just a really nice guy.

I heard he was originally a heavy metal guitar player.

[JaridJay420]

huff paint, cocaine, playing chicken with a train AWSOME LYRICS

[websterish]

they can play anywhere anyhow

[JaridJay420]

these guys are going a long way this song is jammin this song makes me want some alabama high test
