Pavement - Transport Is Arranged (Live)

[vans1170]

back to the real issue, why isn't spiral stairs in this video more?

[WheresPoochie]

So this song has something to do with Creed?

[sovercas]

I absolutely love pavement, but i really don't like how malkmus holds off on a lot of the lyrics for half a beat. it's a little annoying. 

[JameseesDt]

This song is very high in my list of "sacred songs which shouldn't be covered by inferior bands", but we covered it nonetheless... Good thing? Bad thing? Who knows... The song itself though is amazing.

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

for anybody reading this,

type creed shreds into the search bar.

click the first video.

hahaha, yea

how many comedians btw do you know that enjoy making fun of the lead singer of Pavement, SM? I'm sure many of them respect him if anything. SCOTT STAPP MMMMYEAAAA

[neiltay2002]

Great video of a song that deserves nothing but thumbs up. Thanks for posting this.

[FucklyDuckly]

4 people dislikes, must be motormanish and his creed fans...

[chucklesharding13]

@FucklyDuckly I hope so

[Whinesilencer]

I like the little laugh he does near the beginning

[defjonez1251]

oh my gaawwwd motormanish you suck SO hard. every comment is dumber than the last.

[jda4874]

Haha...come on, even God doesn't like Creed...

[chucklesharding13]

@jda4874 AMEN!

[gogitosbanditos]

lol i just admire motormanish stupidity!

[amire80]

Praise the grammar police.

[pizzaisfuntoeat]

@amire80 grandma police?

[hollywoodpurplehaze]

stephen malkmus & the jicks

[ptrsrsn]

malkmus seems fucking bored...

[pizzaisfuntoeat]

i cant believe ill be seeing pavement again in the next year.

[awatkins249108]

what the hell is creed?

[sk8nike]

creed is the worst band ever

[jjtheman444]

i diddent even know creed still had fans

[AirHendrix91]

LOL A CREED FAN.

[motormanish]

@AirHendrix91 LOL Pavement fan. Worst band EVER. If not, they would be popular.

[tycer18]

@motormanish Well, I recommend you listen to a song off of one of their albums. Maybe something off of terror twilight or brighten the corners. You may end up in two years coming back and listening to Pavement and liking them. If not, you still oughta show a little respect for a band that many people consider to be the founders of Indie rock.

[motormanish]

@tycer18 Sorry, but I just can't get past the fact that these people are horrible musicians/singers. It is not pleasing to my ears, so why would I give it another chance?

A lot of people think Charles Manson is a genius. Should I give them a little respect as well?

[tycer18]

@motormanish I'm not telling you to give it another chance, I'm telling you to listen to a record. That's when they put the music on vinyl and/or cd and they try to have it sound as good as it can. These guys just don't give a fuck. So, listen to them when they do give a fuck, and you'll be impressed.

[chucklesharding13]

See, everything motormanish is saying is coming from a guy who likes Creed. And I hope that motormanish knows the I get a good chuckle every time he comes back here to the comment board of the band that he thinks is terrible.

[motormanish]

@chucklesharding13 The last thing I want to do is come back to this shit....but assholes like you keep making immature comments.

I like lots of bands...but I draw the line when it comes to people who have no musical or vocal talent...i.e. Pavement.

I don't think pavement is terrible..........I know they are.....just listen to this shit. Fucking horrible.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish says that guy who likes Creed and comes back to a comment board nearly a year later to prove even more that his opinions have no value here. I love you motormanish... and your first person motorbike videos...

[motormanish]

@chucklesharding13 Thanks for watching my videos. I make money riding motorcycles. FUCKTARD.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish That doesn't mean that your videos aren't shit.

[motormanish]

@chucklesharding13 Why do you insist on keeping this banter flowing? if you like the verbal abuse, so be it.

It is quite entertaining because I don't really give a shit about any of your comments. You do not make a difference in my life.

[motormanish]

@chucklesharding13 So, my videos are shit? You have a right to your opinion.

[Evocati2008]

@motormanish

ummm, using it as transportation to your gimp sessions really doesn't qualify, slave.

[LaSprawl]

So music is all about "licks"...really? Musicians come in all forms -just cause you don't like it doesn't mean it aint good...this is fantastic music IMO coming from another musician -Dylan has been replaced until another inevitably comes...

[Evocati2008]

the best songwriting in the last 25 years, Pavement- the fathers of indie

[d00mb33r]

Yeah dude, I play vocals too. Whatever that means. Malkmus is a god.

Anyone going to the reunion?

[maclennan73]

@d00mb33r yeah twice and it wasn't enough,if some people don't get them it's their loss, one of THE all time greats.

[d00mb33r]

@maclennan73 i have tickets for 2of the nyc shows in september.. been sittin in my drawer for like 8 months hah.. which shows did you go to?

[hobocakes]

love this. thanks for posting.

[chucklesharding13]

motormanish, you got some pretty ignorent comments goin on here.

"Still doesn't change the fact that Pavement has not talent and you think you are cool because you listen to a band the isn't mainstream."

Its funny that you assume this kind of thing over a youtube comment board. I myself listen to pavement because I enjoy it. It's some pretty chill music.

[motormanish]

Ignorant? I think not. I am a musician who strives to become better at what I do. Pavement, does nothing to inspire me MUSICALLY. I take MUSIC at face value. I do not care about anything else but the MUSIC. This my friend, is not music. It is garbage, off key vocals and horrible guitars licks. If you cannot accept the fact that other people don't feel the same as you do, well you have some growing up to do. I am an individual with an opinion. Not right, nor wrong. Get over it.

[Evocati2008]

this coming from a guy that likes creed, lmao

[motormanish]

At least the members of Creed can sing and actually play. Oh forgive me for being so common for listening to a mainstream band. I am a musician and I listen to music that is pleasing to my ear. Pavement produces shit, crap, garbage, noise that makes me cringe and most of you morons bow to this SM, like he is some GOD. Give me a break. Deep down you know this shit sucks but you want to be part of a movement. Oh, they didn't sell out to Hollywood. What is that bullshit? They are in it for the $.

[defjonez1251]

@motormanish oh my gaawwwd motormanish you suck SO hard. every comment is dumber than the last.

[motormanish]

@defjonez1251 I really don't give a fuck what your comments state. Pavement sucks. This is not music, This is trash. LMFAO 

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

@motormanish i wanna puke on your head

[motormanish]

@QuadropheniaBrosef I want slap you across the face for thinking this is music.

[motormanish]

@QuadropheniaBrosef Great ....I would like to kick you in the nut sack with a front instep kick...fag

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

@motormanish hahahahhaha did you have to insult me twice? dude, you came to the wrong place and said something stupid. now no matter what you do people will be talking about you more often than the song when they come to this video. the best alternative is to just leave and never come back to transport is arranged. FOR FUCKS SAKE DUDE YOU LIKE CREED...LEAVE. whats the deal with people coming to youtube videos of things they hate? now i feel like jerry seinfeld.

[motormanish]

@QuadropheniaBrosef Great. I am glad people will be talking. I don't give a fuck. I would not come back to this but assholes like you keep leaving comments and I respond to them. I have a right to my opinion. If you can't handle that ... tough shit.

FOR FUCK SAKE DUDE YOU LIKE PAVEMENT. THEY SUCK.

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

@motormanish i might be an asshole, but you're a cunt. i can live with being an asshole

[motormanish]

@QuadropheniaBrosef Thanks for calling me a cunt. Oh, can you tell that I am really insulted? *eye roll*

It is better to be thought of as a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. You removed all doubt.



[QuadropheniaBrosef]

@motormanish killer eye roll, man

[motormanish]

@QuadropheniaBrosef Thank you so much. I appreciate your feedback. Have a wonderful holiday season.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish You're pretty intellectual motormanish.

[tycer18]

@motormanish You should try drinkin some beer.

[motormanish]

@tycer18 Yeah, if I drink some beer they may sound better but I highly doubt it. They would still suck whether I was drunk or sober.

Nothing would work to fix this sound. Fucking terrible.

[npverni]

By saying you're a musician I'll assume you're a 16yo, slightly nerdy guy, learning to play guitar. Probably have a subscription to Guitar World, think Joe Satriani and Steve Vai are gods, and assume that there is a direct correlation between guitar skill and the ability to get girls. Won't it be amazing that one day when your shitty band covers cliffs of dover and eveyone realizes that you're not a loser? If that's not you now, that was definitely you at one point. Am i wrong?

[motormanish]

WRONG, Not 16 and not a guitar player. Play classical flute, sax and vocals. I don't have any problem getting girls because I am married. Never assume Spanky. I would like to see SM of Pavement attempt any guitar lick that Satrian can play. SM is a hacker who has no skills musically. Do you really listen to his playing or is your judgment clouded by his profound lyrics? sarcasm. This is the worst band I have ever heard. Since when is horrible singing and awful guitar playing concidered genius?

[itsmetyler]

@motormanish Perhaps you should listen to Stephen's newer music from Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish you left out the "i" in "satriani" creed fan...

[theLINOLEUMsoldier]

@motormanish lololololololololololololol you fail, go kill yourself?

[LucasJamesHicks]

@npverni

amen dude.

[chainsawgirl22]

@motormanish

"If you cannot accept the fact that other people don't feel the same as you do, well you have some growing up to do. "

holy unintentional self-sabotage batman

[indiepolo]

And you don't like the band so much that you keep coming back to leave comments.i think the music that you like helps you in your life but there's no need to leave comments like this.i'm not sending this as areply coz i know you'll be back.

[motormanish]

You are all a bunch of sheep because deep inside everyone wants to be accepted into a particular group and you have to agree that Pavement is awesome or you won't be accepted.lol Stand up for youself and be an individual. You are brainwashed. At least I have the balls to say, I think this band sucks. Independant people stand alone. Try it sometime. Grow some balls.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish heavy heavy words from a creed fan...

[motormanish]

The feedback in the beginning of the song is the best part of this performance. Hey Bevis........ this band........like...........rea­lly........sucks

[Evocati2008]

huh huh huh, yo...butthead....get that banana out of your mouth...huh huh huh

[motormanish]

At least I am not like you. This band BLOWS. What a bunch of HACKERS. Listen to THAT HORRIBLE GUITAR SOLO. Fucking Trash.THE VOCALS SUCK. THE VOCALS SUCK. OMG THIS BAND SUCKS BIG TIME.

[Evocati2008]

go away , zygote. I do believe there is a Wham page on here that you can go whack off to.

[motormanish]

Ay least the group Wham could sing. lol One person commented, Quite-to loud genius. What a joke, that is called dynamics. PAVEMENT SUCKS. They should selling burgers at Burger King.

[Evocati2008]

i knew it. a Geritol wham fan, dude it says enough. i banish thee to the land of insignificance

[motormanish]

I am so hurt. lol Still doesn't change the fact that Pavement has not talent and you think you are cool because you listen to a band the isn't mainstream. No major record company would wan't them. That is why they are not mainstream. Age has nothing to do with musical taste. If it is good music, it doesn't matter how old you are-but you are most likely to young to understand....indie. What a joke. LMAO

[Evocati2008]

granpa, you have no HUMOR. Maybe try the Glen Miller vids, maybe your henny youngman like attempt at comedy will strike someones attention. Other than that, i'm done with you, corpse.

[motormanish]

You spelled grandpa wrong, moron. Glenn Miller? Sure send me some of your videos. Henny Youngman too? I think I'm going to pee in my depends, I'm so excited. Hey, don't forget to throw in a bottle of Geritol in with the videos you are sending me. You people kill me, you want to be independant, so why don't you leave the mainstream population? Pavement is out to make money. You are too brainwashed to realize this. You buy their shit and they are laughing all the way to the bank. You've been had.

[Evocati2008]

"and you're my fact checker, 'cause?????"

you're as confused as 1000 blind lesbians @ a tuna factory

[Evocati2008]

hey, you still give great rim jobs??

[motormanish]

Is that the best you can do little child? It shows your I.Q. level. You lack the venacular skills to respond intellectually, so you have to resort to homosexual comments. Are you obsessed with rim jobs? You seem to be because you continue to mention them. You can not accept the fact that people think this band sucks. I don't care what they stand for. Take it at face value. Throw everything else aside and just listen to the singing and playing. It BLOWS. It has no soul and is flat and dull. SUCKS

[Evocati2008]

funny that if it didn't affect you that you took it off your page...the rim job thing. I'll take it as a 10 pointer, obviously you're very easily rattled. lmao, so since you are the sensitive type, a bit of advice. Walk away lil' oprah, walk away.

As for IQ level, pleeeeeease. Caused by your senility, or for whatever reason, i'd be surprised if your IQ reaches 3 digits, forrest.

[Evocati2008]

creed SUXS creed suxs creed suxs

wow

zzzzzzzzzzzz

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish creed's worse.... Their music to me is poison.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish how old are you creed fan ?

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish is selling burgers what you do creed fan?

[motormanish]

@chucklesharding13 Sell burgers? Why? are you such a snob that selling burgers in beneath your dignity?

FYI: I own two business that I created myself.

If I did sell burgers, I would be the best I could be at it because there are no insignificant jobs. Fucking snob.

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish "PAVEMENT SUCKS. They should selling burgers at Burger King." - motormanish

You , yourself attempted to degrade someone by saying they should sell burgers. Eat your words bitch!

[chucklesharding13]

@motormanish take a  chill pill creed fan....

[popmachine12]

great song

[trklsswndr]

exemplifies best of 90's alt-guitar rock: ironically funny, aloof, indie-geek directed/ quiet-to-loud genius+bring on the gtr. tab smack!

[chrisocony]

it's all (almost too) good but especially 2:35

[pavement27]

Agreed....Love that part

[isalegal]

e que orelhas hehehhe

[jazzmaster341]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG

pavement are amazing

[isalegal]

tão bão

[AirHendrix91]

Please, someone tell me the chords hes playing, especially in the beginning.

I've tried ten chord shapes by trial and error and I can't figure out what chord he's using.

Is this using normal tuning?

[jazzmaster341]

I don't think so Pavement use a lot of alternate tunings but there are ways to play this in standard

[AirHendrix91]

Suggestions lol cause I don't think the D Major chord is sufficient for this song as the Tab says.

Then again, I completely hate tabs so if you guys somehow list the chords for me, I'd figure out the rest :D.

[jazzmaster341]

I can link you to a guitar pro tab thats almost 100% correct if that helps. But heres the chords to the chorus... well at lest what i use. A#min, A min, F#min, C#, A#, F#... Hope that helps

[W0weeZ0wee]

I agree, but I still think it sounds better with that twangy Pavement sound

[autotronix]

tranmutation is arranged the alchemist swong his firey sord ,deep deep shit

[LucasJamesHicks]

do they have two drummers at one?

[joshlegleiter]

Two things:

1) This performance is strangely ordinary for Pavement.

2) Ibold's expression from 0:56 - 0:59 creeps me out.

[MrClitbandit]

sweet ... the music of the 90's

[sonicgirl3488]

the perfect song by the perfect neighbour.......i love it

[slocorrr]

B-)

[llamasarus]

the only difference is that the Beatles made 12 albums in 10 years. Pavement made 5 in ten years

[Phelsuma04]

Hmm. That's the only difference? I would also mention that the Beatles had 2 great song writers and Pavement had 1.

[chrisocony]

Yes, John and George sure could write (just kidding, Paul).

[AirHendrix91]

Fail

[gaboquinones]

haha

[caandom]

I would have loved to be young when they were still up and performing.

[chrisocony]

Reminds me of the Beatles, just a regular guy from Stockton (not Liverpool) who happens to be a great guitarist, great songwriter, great lyricist

[daaliminator2]

not since the beatles had their been a band so effortlessly brilliant, they just seemed to churn out one great song after the next

[RacerEckss]

This is feckin awesome!!!

[Radixxs]

Pavement rocks.

That's all there is to it.

[runswithhorses38]

anyone have tabs to this

[W0weeZ0wee]

i dont want to spam a website name, but just check some major guitar tab sites, there is one that has a good guitar pro version that i have.....

[violaine1979]

Swoon...fraulein..

[nightfall91]

damn i love this song, they make mistakes and its cool! XD

[cgmacleod]

Does anyone know what tuning Malkmus is using here?

[jrnls80s]

CGDGBB, I think..

[thecro21]

drop d poohead ;)

[jrnls80s]

Oh well, sorry for trying to help- CGDGBB is a tuning Malkmus used a lot in his songs and still does to this day..

[chainsawgirl22]

wow, thats what i've been using this whole time without knowing that, rad.

[Konner]

They nick-named it Pavement tuning, right? I think Sonic Youth use it too.

[MrPatachou]

could be DADABe

[AirHendrix91]

They have two drummers in this vid?

Bad ASS!

[Fiselgrulm]

Not just in this vid. Bob Nastanovich joined Pavement around 1992 to provide additional Percussion/Drums and Keyboards.

[MadOldMan]

Not to mention additional screaming vocals live.

[fluzil]

love the shorts

[AirHendrix91]

His voice is so awesome. I don't know what it is but it just draws me in.

Great band and great song!

[pissinajar]

reminds me of lou reed

[AirHendrix91]

His voice is so awesome. I don't know what it is but it just draws me in.

Great band and great song!

[7CA]

"coach tught me how to sing, couldn't teach me to love"

awesome.

[McGuinty1]

I love how he substitutes "you're my lady" with "you're my fraulien", then he starts chuckling a couple seconds later. Classic Malkmus.

[Rocktopus]

Bring back Pavement!

[nicolasonnn]

You better learn how to fly . He can't teach me too love . Transport is arranged.

[lejoe48]

This song is a classic to me. Thanks.

Embassy row, Spit on a stranger, Major leagues, Carrot rope, Fight this generation, Black out, at&t, Pueblo, flux=rad, Debris slide, Conduit for sale, Shady lane, Unseen power, Our singer, We dance: My Favourites. Thanks

[ZipMasterFlash]

What in the mouth of a desert and Kentucky cocktail (true pavement classics!)

[jimisevertoolhed]

[themiln]

Pavement in their element!

[scousemouse69]

Jazzmasters rock, i have one just the same, pavement were so cool when they became less cool, i.e after slanted, continued to play at reading festival when the whole P.A went down for over 5 mins, class,, i miss them

[xandersick]

[craigowski]

Yeah, it`s the Bizarre fest video from 97, there also was a torrent of the complete show on dime and zomb a while back.
