Silver Sun Pickups -Capitol Hill Block Party

[mg1242]

I love that drum beat

[cdann101]

I remember this. That was a great show.

[llSephirothII]

Bass is not skillful

[BTownblunts]

@mattsrage76

I agree! I met the band at a private show (endsession if you know what it is) and they were all extremely friendly and fun to be with

[RENDUI]

i have to get this song!

[IonizeAndAtomize]

hahaha cocksucka

[CantBlockProxies]

I could do without the lead singer's bullshit repartee. Having said that, this song is fantastic, and when the lead singer is actually singing: magic.

[lumberjack5]

@CantBlockProxies At least he's in touch with his fans, it's pretty cool when you're at a concert.

[Anontalkwarrior]

THX although damn camera.......oh well thnx also, COCK SUCKA

[MetallicAerin]

COCK SUCKA XD

[lfccogs]

great stuff

[ForestMan1129]

Man, That Thunderbird bass is awesome, but I can't find that finish anywhere! Does any one know how to get it?

[guitarrhythymfool]

@ForestMan1129 It was probably a special run or made for her. Basically though it's a worn cherry finish without the gloss coat.

[the82spartans]

I hope this band does not end up like some poor excuse for a political agenda... (like green day, or incubus)

I luv this band.

Don't change.

Late.

[RENDUI]

@the82spartans

i doubt it dude...they're not idiots. they're a fucking awsome band.

[the82spartans]

@RENDUI YEA!!

[peetbee2]

See Nikki's new video, she's playing tennis

[lkgrave]

That's a real cute video and she's a hell of a tennis player.

[RENDUI]

@MrPeterGroove

[Pico956]

[CriticsConfession]

I miss Brian's not beard... He looked better, and waaaay younger than he does now.

[nmbcfanatic]

What are you talkin bout man, he looks like hes 19 without his beard

[CriticsConfession]

You're making no sense... I said that he looks young without it... Idiot...

[vernon789]

I miss Christopher's beard. That long, flowing thing he used to have on and off. Man, that was a beard!

[Chodemeister836]

no way!

he looks fucking bad ass now.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

No way, every guy looks better with some sort of scruff.

[changaiPR]

the bassist is hot, what's her name?

[Brucev7]

Check her out in the vid "Kissing Families", it's a hoot. Peace.

[BuddaBoyz808]

Her name's Nikki Monninger

haha her reaction after Brian said "cock-sucka!"

lol she's awesome

[crunchb3rry]

Lol, nice Deadwood reference.

[mattsrage76]

it's really nice to see a band with a sense of humor! :) it makes the band that much more enjoyable to listen to and to ever meet in person if that chance ever comes around!

[OwrKeeng]

[prsshred39]

ive wanted more info on these guys for a while

[Grunge00125]

on wikipedia i think. either that or myspace. idk i usually look on those 2 places. but the singer definitely said they were gonna have 17 songs on their next album.

[israeliforce414]

this band is like the nirvana of indi rock

[Grunge00125]

not really, lol, nirvana popularised grunge, these guys are a popular indie rock band, that doesnt mean they are popularizing a genre though. im just sayin

[misschica51]

Do they have a new album coming out? I would love to see them live.

[YOURGREAT101]

wtf r these set lists u guys r talkin bout?

?

ps:your hot nikki :D...im drualingLOL these guys and gals r AWSOME!!!!!

[rmullprod]

how old r they they seem young

[vernon789]

Early 30's

[rmullprod]

seems like early 20 s lol

[CriticsConfession]

No, I think Brian and Joe are in their middle to late 20's and Nikki and Chris are their early 20's...

[gregflorenceduncan]

By the time they were done playing, I had managed to get to the front. I was yelling Nikki's name to get a set list. The guy next to me asked me what her name was and after I told him, he started yelling it too. Then she picked up the list, gave it to a security guy, and pointed to our general direction. The guy next to me only got it because he was taller :P...

[vernon789]

Brian picked up Smoosh's setlist and said "somebody's setlist is blowing in the wind... how cool "

[GrungeKatt]

He is hilarious!

[vegadomis32988]

hahah his voice is all normal when he talks then he sounds all emo and high girly when he sings...

it was funny but awesome

[shap94]

that girl is hot

[YepItsMe]

Haha! I was there too!

I was like, two feet to the right of the person taking this video!

[theneonblob]

I was there!! I loved that show! Jessuz amazing.

[ksam2007]

whats that effect between 3.05-3.20 called?

[mongman91]

its just delay i think set with quite a low feedback and with the delay time really short, its like brians secret weapon, hes a frigging genius :)

[ksam2007]

thx

[gbarkl3y]

this is the best song on this cd. love the drums.

[wasser1]

[SupremeNY94]

Here we g0 with nikki and the Faux traut....AGAIN

[vee3012]

Thanks TONS from Berlin. Saw them here last year. My new favourite band! Lucky you are overthere in America!!!! :-)

[tennis0re0]

[beepeet]

Future Foe Scenarios

[magpiemegnut]

I was at the Capitol Hill Block party this year, and they were amazing live.

[nate247420]

hot bassplayer+90s style+=Sweet music

[SnareSmasher]

@nate247420

I dont think her sex appeal contributes to the music in anyway.

Check your math.

Though she is hot lol

[spokenout24]

fuckin great song, great band, amazinly hot girl... AHHHHHHHHHHH

[LIBREPUB]

I really need to but this album

[jas22]

that guy in the audience-- typical transient. if 'seattle rules', then go back, asshat. love DC or leave it.

ok, anyway, this is my new favorite band. they remind me very much of the Smashing Pumpkins (wasnt a big pumpkins fan, though).

[kmdf]

did he just say cock sucker? omg how vulgar...

[beepeet]

It's a Deadwood reference, the Chinese guy says it.

[Krowvayne]

Wow, that song is like.. perfect live.

[mcrlover4etertinity]

cocksucka lol

[KKCAchim]

he talks too much for my taste

[SpikeMinoda]

She looked at you! -score-

[beepeet]

She played a "bass solo" at my shoutout, I thought that was a big deal :)

[SpikeMinoda]

That's the bee's knees, man. -double score-

[beepeet]

And before the show, I said "Hey" and she said "Hi", so if she's anyones imaginary girlfriend, she's definitely mine!

[billiumbean]

I made eye contact with her so many times at this private session I recently went to. And she asked to have her picture taken with me.

Uh oh, competition.

[guiltysanch3z]

lucky as hell...

[Tengent]

I love Nikki :D

[LadytronTSGirl]

I do too!! She is adorable! i want to marry her!!!

[Umbras363]

When did she look at him?

[corrs713207]

wat did he say abot zip codes?

brian: we dont hve zip codes where we come from its just a territory cock that sucka (?????)

something like that

[beepeet]

"We don't have ZIP codes, we're still a teritory, cocksucker!" The cocksucker is a Deadwood reference.

[benxbritt]

He said "seattle is our practice town" or something a long those lines.

[LostAndDeliriousGirl]

hey guys!

at the beginning he said something about playing and somethong about seattle...didn't quite understand...what was he saying?

[beepeet]

Brian: Portland we call our practice town, no, no, no just kidding...

audience guy: Seattle!

Brian: Seattle's not our practice town, waddyu talking about?

audience guy: Seattle Rules!

Brian: Do you think Seattle Rules?

Nikki: I think it does.

[TimHeuett]

God, that was such a great show. I wish it was still going on =P

[benxbritt]

The part about Epiphone is for this live video.

[benxbritt]

The bass Niki plays in the Well Thought Out Twinkles video is definitely a Fender bass, you can tell by the head, tunning pegs, and overall body style of the bass guitar. Looking at other videos I noticed that Brian plays an Epiphone, so Niki could also be playing an Epiphone, which are pretty much Gibson factory made knock-offs.

[Umbras363]

Fender doesn't make Thunderbird. It's copyright or whatever.

[charmlessman1]

Gibson makes the Thunderbird. Looks genuine to me.

[Umbras363]

Yeah.

[CriticsConfession]

Well it's actually an Epiphone that Nikki plays.

[fxhasthemovies]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... i have the same bass as nikki (spelling?) im totally naming it after her. i got it last week.

[beepeet]

Have you seen Nikki's white bass? Not sure on the model, may be the same. She used it on some of the TV appearances, goes good with fancy dress.

[Umbras363]

No in this concert Nikki used a natural Thunderbird 4. The white bass is a Thunderbird 5.

[beepeet]

And the one in the Twinkles video is a ___?

[Umbras363]

That is the Natural Thunderbird 4 she used in this.

[BlueXOrchid3]

The Twinkles video bass could possibly be a Fender. My bass is a Fender and looks very similar

[Umbras363]

They look similar but their not it's a Gibson.

[guessitwasloaded]

its a fender p-bass

[CriticsConfession]

Fender doesn't make thunderbirds... And to Umbras363 (Myself, new account, XD) It's an epiphone just to correct myself... Epiphone is a line of gibson...

[BlueXOrchid3]

Hey beepeet, ur advice worked.THANX. i was there about 4 hours before the show and got an amazing spot directly in front of Brian. Just for kicks, my friend and i made a sign for Brian, and he pointed us out during Dream at Tempo 119. he said he loved us. lol

[beepeet]

Right on! Where was the show?

[BlueXOrchid3]

Summerfest in Milwaukee! Best show I've seen all year...

[nicklang319]

they remind me allot of smashing pumpkins

[clbl06]

I was thinking the same thing SpikeMinoda, she seems so shy and insecure on stage, like she'll start to jump around but a second later stop and keep her head down. The singer is pretty sweet, actually the entire band is.

[zakfmt]

Hahahaha, Yeah. Sic eh? It's like bullet time.

[Foundlost63]

GO SEATTLE!!!!!!!!!

[goldseal81]

your right beepeet.... thats what i did, and it worked.. lol

[804608693]

the bass player is SO sexy

[BlueXOrchid3]

how crowded do these shows get. im gonna see them soon, so i wanna be prepared. IM SOO EXCITED!

[zakfmt]

such a good drummer. very unusual beat, yet played flawlessly.

[BallpointAddiction]

Ha, I love how his right arm shoots up every time he hits the hi-hat at the beginning.

[andiamsomebody]

Seattle sucks, Portland rocks!

[SpikeMinoda]

I love how the bass player always seems so insecure onstage... I dunno why, she reminds me of a friend of mine.

[RequiemForABuckeye]

They were playing in Portland, OR?  Sweet!

[rkpetersen]

I'm seeing them next week. Should be a great show.

[moosemuncher]

they're shows are so fucking awesome.

[xGhostoftheRiverx]

Amazing, i need to go to one of their shows

[justineyxo2022]

i was there that shit was sick

[shaolinkin]

future foe....scenarios!

[Lynchey]

ah found it :-)

[Lynchey]

brilliant video, shame I can't find their album in stores over here :-(

[muuze]

I think i have a thing for the girl. theres just something about a bass guitar and a girl...

[etrueholly]

Kick ass video, Ricardo!

[DeemunCow]

oh such a glorious show

i was front center

i wish they played more of pikul though

[druhim]

Awesome Nick! Really enjoyed their set, especially since the Murder City Devils ended up being such a letdown. Block Party '07!

[Jugdizh]

nice quality...and nice view!

[zonker12345]

Wow this was like 3 days ago... I was there man
