I wish there was some way I could show this man how much his music means to me. If it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't be here, and it's fucking heart breaking to know that no one could return that favor. RIP Mark, may all your days be gold.
went to this. wasn't their greatest performance; the sound seemed poor - but those were the ups and downs of sparklehorse live. smog played the same night i think. was also at the cockpit gig. i think that might have been '98, playing as a trio, all dressed like 19th century southern gentlemen and they were fucking electrifying. had forgotten about the crash helmets outside - being terrorised under the arches by a helmeted band playing some sort of surf-punk if i remember correctly...
Favourite song by my favourite artist...hot! Glad I found this, and thanks for posting it!!! He rarely comes to Canada so I rely on you fine folks supplying the Sparklehorse fix!
cool, i've never seen footage of us playing this. i remember we did this song a few times only (oxford zodiac too, i think..?) while i was in the band.
this show was playing before flaming lips in some big tent...
This guy was extremely talented. Sad.

Japanese to English translation (via Google) says, "Mark Linkous is a rock star forever".
Yup.

Was this at the cockpit? With the guys wearing crash helmets playing on a trailer outside after the gig?
