BEST COPY - The Hold Steady "Chips Ahoy!"

[ostolero]

this really is the best copy

[deanmoriarty]

I like these guys even more cause they look like they should be doing my taxes rather than rocking out.

whicker island

[budihollijr]

woahoaoahoho

I don't know if there is anything more fun to sing along to

[seannymac33]

I'm ready for another classic album like "BGIA." That's one of the best things I've ever heard.

[spacewrangler1995]

I love the Drive-By-Truckers...I am glad these guys are gonna tour with them. They are original and like the fact they aren't hacks. Cheers...I'll be seeing you soon

[synestheticmusic]

reminds me of the film anchorman, for some reason...

[yahweh764]

Haha!! what the heck was that?! This band is so weird but i like them a lot.

[Lugak14]

Gawd they are amazing. I get to see them on my birthday!

[in5ths]

this sounds like garbage

[rampjesus]

nah, it's awesome

[haxness1234]

You're garbage

[megamanx300049]

Craig Finn looks ALOT like George Costanza at certain parts of this video.

Anybody agree?

[kingslndflyr]

@megamanx300049

haha good call. But I love this guy. Heard Chips Ahoy and Same Kooks and got hooked. He's no oil painting, but who cares? Go for it, ya ugly little bugger, rock on!

[bobalamo]

like the song, video rips of monty python thou

[pronkb000]

Good, I thought I was the only one who noticed that. Nice of them to pick a more obscure sketch to rip off, though.

Also, Craig Finn=Daily Show resident expert John Hodgman.

[MagnificentFiend]

Lol, 1:13 - Tad Kubler as Catholic priest!

[pluffmudsc]

This is nothing more than 2008 Husker Du.

[soonerfan61]

OK...so....that's a bad thing? What do you want, a disclaimer label on the cover? Something like..."Attention potential buyer: we as a band, conciously or unconciously, ape 80's underground stars Husker Du to the note. If this displeases you in any way, we advise you to not buy the cd contained within".

"...every artist is a cannibal, every poet a thief..."

[yahweh764]

hey soonerfan i like the u2 quote! i dont know what your talking about but if you make a reference to u2 i agree.

[hailtothevictorz]

Makes sense, Minneapolis guy digs his roots. By the way, he rocks your ass off too.

[supersmoothpunk]

every once in a while an excellent band comes along and makes an amazing album this the band, boys and girls... is the album!

[smellyjeff]

she always does it too much....love that line

[spangle69]

seeing these guys in a few weeks and cannot wait!

[augu0037]

Most of the members are from MN, met up in Mpls and moved to NYC where they "made it big."

[MinnesotaTwinsFan]

they talk about it in the songs aswell, there are references to the St Paul saints who are a AA baseball team

[CreamSpinachplz]

this chick is like smoking hot...

how did craig expect to get her?

[54spiritedwill54]

This video is funny and cool!!!

[killthepoopoopanda]

is that david spade?

[clou5040]

Superb!! Nothing Better on Earth

[reddragon53545]

??? Tad is orginally from Janesville Wisconsin he used to play in a band called doublespeak

[unculfester]

what a song man. awesome!!!!

[drweedon]

I thought they were from Minni, but everytime I hear about them in the media, they say the Hold steady is from NYC. Either way they are one of the best bands around right now.

[unculfester]

i think they're from brooklin, ny. but you right they are one of the best. mint!!

[mafiagnome12]

lifter puller, the band Craig and Tad are originally from, was formed in Minni

a great band to look into, if you have the money for their cds

[ffairlane57]

Sounds like across between Uncle Tupelo and Hüsker Dü.

[RecessMonkeys]

Agreed! I was trying to think of who the singer reminded me of, and Bob Mould finally came to mind. And these guys are from Minny, too.

[54spiritedwill54]

This video is funny !!!

[jiffijaffi]

anyone know the chords for this please!?!?!?!?!

thanks

[DoctorAxe]

nice!

[killthepoopoopanda]

anyone think the pizza guy looks like david spade?

[RaiBlader]

Only taller. XD

[satanicsquirrel01]

dont watch scrubs, but ya i heard them first off zane lowe. i'm not totally hooked on them, and i don't even like this song much, but the video is ace and it's very very very catchy.

[Frozensquirrel]

BEST BAND EVER! I love how funny this is.

[webby686]

awesome band!  get this album!

[SeniorCleave]

Who gave George Costanza a mic? Love the video and the new album is excellent. Go buy it!

[casimirpulaskidayxx]

HAHA

He does look like George Costanza!

[bloodandiron]

Great song. Great band. JUST discovered this band recently, and I'm glad I did. So much better than all of the crap you hear on the radio these days.

[megamanx300049]

Love the song, and I love the video even more.

Its just... So classic, and so.. Steryotypical of the 80's.

[sabapoursaeedi]

this song rocks!

[ffairlane57]

I have the sudden urge to drink diet ginger ale and drive around in a 1980 Oldsmobile Delta 88 whe I see this video.

[quincy211188]

WHAT MAKES THIS COPY THE BEST?

[jksymz75]

picture quality. it's a quicktime taken from the director's website and the others seem to be flash compressed movies taken from another source.

[xistentialkid]

This video is funny and cool!!! A+

[Draxhall]

Great video, very original. The songs not bad either, I'll definitely have to check out this album.

Thanks for posting.
