This song is great. I'm not sure why this song, or many of their other songs didn't get much praise. The songs that the people seemed to like were their girlier songs, which I like least. Much hasn't changed today.
@MrLouisManchester "All you Californians taking all our fucking shit, you are just a bunch of carpetbaggers." The song was about Californians moving to the Pacific Northwest, with their egos still big.
@MrLouisManchester On the album it's "all these Californians everywhere, charging everything, there just a bunch of carpetbaggers, why don't they all just..." obviously here he spoke a little more to the point.
I was at the concert. They pulled up random people out of the crowd during the encore including myself. About 30 people jumping around and singing along to 'Fire Maple song'. They played the concert in its entirety on HBO, "Reverb" was the name of the show. There was a guy there dressed up like an Art Alexakis look alike too. Great concert!!!
This was a great performance. Usually when bands are live they don't sound NEARLY as good as they do in the original song. Let's just hope they are as great today, with new members and a 12 year time difference...:l

Yeah you fucking Californians! Stop screwing people on the Internet! All the servers are government employees at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey California! So you all think it's funny to hack into peoples computers and change their pass codes? Assholes! I hope every Californian burns in Hell!
seems that thier suits and narrow neckties add to the pent up frustration and passion/energy coming thru their music...or just tasteful packaging keeping the monster under acceptable wraps. either way best fashion statment since bowies modernlove tour--seen on stage in years. class act.
What complete assholes... Can you believe the nerve of these guys? How am I ever suposed to make the music scene when pricks like these are tearing it the fuck up? I mean c'mon! Leave at least just a little glory for future generations. Sheesh..............................................................
fuck! accidentally hit post comment... anyways, I was stating that a pathetic, useless turd such as yourself should feel nothing but privileged to "share preferences" with a superior life form such as myself. Weak minded fool...
The mere fact that you would spend time trash talking me via youtube comments is utterly pathetic. I'm sorry I didn't understand your initial comment. It's hard to detect playful sarcasm in text, especially when there's an excessive amount of hate present in youtube comments. I thought you meant "tearing it up" in a bad way. ;)
There is so little 90s live Everclear from their prime on youtube. Most of the vids are from their recent tours. I saw them twice on the 'Drama' tour which was cool, but I was too young to go to this show...

Yeah, this was more like either 1993 or 1994

considering "so much for the afterglow" was released in 1997.. i don't think 1993 or 1994 is right.. probably 1998-ish.

This is a really nice live job. I've never been able to hear California King in person, so I guess this is the closest I'll come to heaven.
