Grizzly Bear - Ready, Able (SXSW 3/19/09)

[Numinous123]

Jay-Z loves this band. You can see him and Beyonce dancing the one of their songs on youtube.

I'm glad to see people are starting to write good music again. We had a dry spell of good song writers for a long time.

I wish I could get my high school students to acknowledge Grizzly Bear stomps their three chord bands.

@pizzatheface just tell them about how they have a song on the twilight soundtrack then say they're on team jacob.

[pizzatheface]

Haha! One of the band members is dating Miley Cyrus? Maybe if I just told them it is a REAL grizzly bear singing.

[whw524]

@pizzatheface either of those would probably work just fine.

[whw524]

this is soo amazing!

[laurenr024]

[laurenr024]

Whoever recorded this is gifted. They also have an extremely loud cough.

I love this live recording ... My favorite song on the new album next to Dory ... but I'll be seeing them live on 9-26-09 in Ann Arbor, Michigan and I can't wait

[murdoclives]

that synth/keys part at 1:40 sounds exactly like gorillaz use on "kids with guns."

[TheJRgz]

...hey cheek my channel with video of this song..images of luis buñuel

[smokinbill]

how do they get the sound at 1:40? fucken amazing.

[kbyourself]

I think that's his omnichord. either that or his keyboard.

[Kellmeister04]

Great video! This is my favorite song off of the new album.

[ionmeketawa]

they go we go

i want you to know

what i did i did

[capucinemusic]

L'album est divin mais Ready Able me transporte à chaque fois. Vivement Août et la Route du Rock !

[LilRyan732]

man that second half completely melts me everytime, so good. "they go we go, i want you to know, what i did, i did"

[baudelairescousin]

oh, totally, totally, totally. sends shivers down my spine...

[LanceSmith87]

One of the best songs off the new record without a doubt.

[nikezooms]

does anyome know what synth ed is using all the time?

[elixeter]

It's a thing called an Omnichord. It's a weird 80's synth + guitar crossover, pretty rare these days.

[nikezooms]

i have on OM100. but i mean his synth. the small keyboard.

[guyyute]

I figure it's just a MIDI controller. I don't know though . . .

[gollypam]

Ed is so good. This melody slays! Great video. Thanks for recording it. I was 3rd in the ticket line when they said they weren't going to sell anymore tickets. SO PISSED!

[re1069]

I got turned away too!!! oh well i saw them from the sidewalk at Cedar Street the next night

[nikezooms]

bummer

[sunflower1000]

[asullengirl]
