Jason Webley "Dance While The Sky Crashes Down" - Live in LA

[gaykitzman]

I am so glad I found your video! It's great!!!

[Gh0stimeR]

Who cares who brought you here, this guy is a genius

[solidkingcobra]

Amanda Palmer brought me here.

[musicus0099]

I saw him live yesterday at an Amanda Palmer show and he totally blew my mind. Absolutely amazing. The raw passion he has for his music, have I not seen many times.

[LorilynColeman]

I found him singing on top of a garbage can at Folk Life Festival and have followed him ever since.

[newspapervillage]

Am I the only one who thinks this song is really sexy?

You know...despite the incredible lyrics?

[sobreunaflor1]

@thexeno- you are so lucky

[skjaere]

Jason Webley = Love. I want to come back in my next life as that accordion. I've been to see him so many times, and he always takes the time to talk with people both before and after the shows. Great energy. Wonderful performer. Really nice guy. I hope more people will continue to discover him. Talent like his deserves recognition.

[mickycisme]

YouTube, I'm sorry to point this out but your interface is broken and cluttered. If you look closely, you'll see that there is a "Dislike" button at the bottom of this Jason Webley video. And it's right next to the "Like" button! That seems really irresponsible... someone could accidentally click on it.

Please attend to this egregious hazard at your earliest convenience.

[NickEvansMusic]

All Hail Webley!

[onebluenine]

This is great!

[Ancaferocks4ever]

rock that accordian :D

[Kelchup]

I just saw him tonight & last night. Two of the best performances I have ever seen, amazing entertainer!

[redhavok666]

@Kelchup hi kels lol

[MrChrisjeffries20]

annoying fuck

[jaspers22]

This tour was one of the best he has ever made!

[Sinousine]

I wish the album recording were as passionate as this live performance. It really makes me want to get up a dance.

[ramair1969]

Gogol Bordello/Bogol Gordello

[siobhanlovescrystal]

This guys is the other half of evelyn evelyn!

[klaymen22]

This song makes me gothgasm.

[EdwardWasAVampire]

i saw one of his shows a few months ago when he was touring with Amanda Palmer.

he's honestly the most down to earth guy.

a few dedicated fans stayed after the show to get autographed, and he invited a bunch of us to get a beer.

[Booshtastic96]

Gypsy every day.

Jason is so good!!!!

[IrelandPunk]

he sounds like the singer form Gogol Bordello during this song haha

[RubyBladeAwesome]

Sweet Jesus...Jason Webley looks like a sexy accordeon-playing pirate captain in this video. I can only hope to ever be as good as he is. Which I won't be, but uh, hope!

...I think if I ever met him, my head would explode.

Do you think he knows how popular he is with the guys?

[AlicexCam]

I could listen to this song a hundred times and not get even remotely tired of it.

[McKaylaDonald]

He's really rather sexy and SO talented... *swoon*

[porhmonkey]

@McKaylaDonald I'm a straight guy and I think he's sexy! Him and Brian Vigilone!

[ambientsoldier]

i love the angle, specially around the 3:11 area.. its like a picture perfect moment with the hat over his eye and the light behind him..

[jadethecoolbabe]

anyone else get reminded of Captain Jack Sparrow? lol, love this dude, epic artist

[contortedfinger]

L S D

[Br0k3nWiingZ]

i love the live version :] the album version seems too mellow after seeing him live and full of emotion!

[Leahh93]

@Br0k3nWiingZ Totally agree. xD At first I thought I wasn't getting the right version on the CD. Though it's still awesome. <3

[tlwalrus]

So much better than the "Against the Night" version, when is an updated going on record?

[musicforchewfaygs]

saw this guy here in st.louis last year.

its still one of the best shows i've ever seen.

never heard of him before that night, now i love him.

[JTKorie]

Jason performs here in town at least once a year. The tavern I go to see him in was one of the first he ever had a professional Gig in, and he comes back to visit his roots. I've met him ( I know several people who are in his Drink Song video which was filmed in the tavern he performs in here) He's a great guy. Very down to earth and real.

[Xandkali]

I only know of him because of Amanda Palmer. I LOVE him.

THis reminded me of Tom Waits.

[dancer5611]

oh how i love his hat. makes the show so much better:)

[gcornielje]

Fantastic performer!

[bschlotz]

the fills from the viola are lovely. I'm surprised he didn't proffer anyone from the audience a pestilential pear.

[TheServando09]

Marvin I'm tired of your little comments, Jason Webley is an actual artist...Dave on the other hand is a pathetic mutation from Kurt Cobain. End of story...

[barefootgirl42]

Oh Jason how I love thee.

[tamarasaralynn]

I hope mr. death's story is true, regardless it's a great image....

[MarlonOwnsYourCake]

Man, eating apple pie is waaay better than riding bikes! And going to prison is worse than eating a stapler.

[yoshideath]

He played the accordion as we all walked to a cemetery to burn letters as an effigy to the dead. We smoked, drank, talked, and remembered those we love.

it was a brilliant night, and you don't forget the image of fifty or so letters burning with tombstones in the background.

[xxdanzzxx]

He came to my school in eugene oregon he was so cool we got to meet with him after

[darkie117]

I think that ska050791 makes sense the foo fighters are way better. you can compare them man, you people just gotta stop being little bitches

[TheXeno16]

I found him under a bridge once. No joke. Lol. He was playing to a tiny audience of late night walkers at like 3 am. I could hear the acordian, and I was like, wtf, and I followed it to his excellence. What an awesome artist.

[porhmonkey]

@TheXeno16 in canada?

[TheXeno16]

@porhmonkey Saskatoon, Sk, Canada. :) Under the broadway bridge, I think it was.

[porhmonkey]

@TheXeno16 Thats crazy because I know a person who was there from that. I was talking to him about it, he lives in Dublin now

[CorwinOfAvelon]

@TheXeno16 I may have been there, I had a very similer experience.

[mickycisme]

@TheXeno16 DUDE! - I was there, and for the same wtf reason.

Though my guess is Jason has nights like that all the time.

[LetMeDreamOkay]

He is AWESOME

[yellowandblues]

fuckin electric.

[emilyispsychedelic]

this is my favorite thing ever.

[yellowandblues]

This one is so Huge!! I love this song.

[vulcandemon666]

1) That's what she said.

2) I agree.

[ironcountry]

love love love love love

[JimueISnore]

he sold out...

[jamiemm311]

Yeah, the venue was completely packed. A few of my friends couldn't even get in!

[demigodkiller]

oh yes. he probably should have avoided letting people listen to his music so that he wouldnt get too many fans. only cool people like you should get to listen to jason webley. prick.

[demigodkiller]

that was aimed at jamie by the way

[yellowandblues]

This is the one that did it for me.

Rock on Brethren!!!!!

[Einschii]

love this song so much <3

[EmpressOrchid]

I love this song!

[hj351]

I love his energy

[Fooyoovoo]

you certainly can but its a bit like comparing guns to marbles.

Perhaps you need to get educated, because your freedom of speech also means you can make yourself sound like a fool, as you just did.

Freedom of speech means you need to exercise it judiciously, lest you make an ass out of yourself.

[krkcl17]

/agree

[Thepaintheory]

very piratesque. i like.

[endr117]

this guy is so awesome to talk to. he's fucking crazy. I really wanna get stoned with him

[LittleSignal]

He doesn't smoke.

[shahravar]

Love Him! and his band too!

[Xaeron73]

I've hung out with this guy, he's a badass.

[FreakOfNurture]

Me too. He does seem pretty cool.

[urheart01245]

i did not like it at all bad video foo fighters all the way

[xXTheSockRockerXx]

Foo fighters? What the fuck has Grohl got to do with Jason?

I love the Foos, been to see them, but still don't cmpare them to Jason. Jason is genius, as is Grohl.

[cafexcreme]

Explosive performance. As always.

[BernadetteJoolen]

Really fun, Jason... Almost like seeing you on the streets of seattle again, back in the late 90s or whenever it was, and at the seattle center... Honestly, no street act has ever been as good! Cheers, bernadette

[lifesonfire]

ah! that night was amazing!

[justinpirate]

This was an awesome show!

[meepology]

worth every penny and every hour on the freeway!
