  • This video is a good way to show how loud Scott & Seth are unmic-ed. They're voices really stand out among the group.

  • @LaughingOutKraut one of those things is Jessica's voice. She is horribly damned flat the entire time.

  • Ouch, something needs to be tuned badly! Apart from that, awesome as always.

  • I daresay this is my favorite video on the 'tube...

  • I listen to this song everyday and it never fails to put me in a better mood.

    When a song can change your mood that much,you know it's good.

  • Great Band!!!!!

  • Looks Like 33 people were never hugged now LOL

  • If everybody could enjoy life as much as the avetts the world would be a much better place

  • can't hate on hippies like that

  • Thank God smells can't come through You Tube Videos

  • Is it just me or does the guy with the trucker hat sitting on the floor look like Seth Green?

  • This video WILL have one million views by the time im done with it

  • Hope no instruments were damaged in the process!

  • This video makes me so freakin' happy! Loved seeing this song live in Lexington last week.

  • I love that Bob is filming this

  • what was the first song ?!?!?

  • @empatheticrobo the first part is the beginning of "Talk on Indolence". They are the same lyrics, except its performed much slower in this video.

  • @empatheticrobo a "slow" version of the first verse of "talk on indolence"

  • The guy on the drum is my cousin's doppelganger.

  • You had me at 'Avett Brother Sandwich'. Love it!

  • Not being able to play your instruments or sing is very avant garde.

  • My seven year old niece loves this song. She has a good portion of it memorized and sang it for me the other night...whenever we get in the car, it's "Can we hear the 1-2-3-4 song?"

  • This looks like too much fun

  • just posted my cover of this song. One great little gem!

  • Scott managed to not look white trashy in the standard white trash uniform! XD

  • Seth kinda looks like Jesus......

  • I would think it's weird that one person had a pound of shit in each ear....it must be an epidemic because there are at least 30 of them out there!

  • @wuthering72 that makes sense. I've noticed that they've toned it down a bit on the most recent album. We're seeing them live for the first time in C-ville in September. Looking forward to it (even if there is sing-shouting :).

  • Isnt this talk on indolence

  • @YelloGator

    The beginning is I think

  • @YelloGator It is a medley of the two songs.

  • and 1561 people were def hugged by their parents..... 30 dislikers must not reproduce!!!!

  • 1561 people have good musical taste :)

  • I love this song and enjoyed the video, but maybe some of the hard core fans could answer an honest question for me. What's with the sing-shouting? it would sound better IMO if they didn't do that.

  • @amyvt98 It's a bit of fun, it harkens back to the boys' hard rock roots, and since this isn't an album version, they're just going for it. I get that some people could be put off by that, but for me, it shows Seth's total commitment to a song. And I guess at the end of a long tour with good friends and musicians, you get some steam-letting screams. Plus, it's part trademark Seth sound.

  • @amyvt98 i agree!

  • @amyvt98 that's what makes the avett's the avett's. i love it when they sing sweetly and beautifully, but i also love it when they scream. it's their ability to go from one extreme to the other that makes them sound so fantastic and unique. also i feel like it pays homage to their punk roots.

  • Why is anything more recent than this "not available on mobile"?

  • I think the mayfields are part of the band Cadillac Sky right? oh man they are sick too! love this video

  • They played this exact combo at the orange peel in Asheville NC in December of 2008 and I cried of joy.

  • That looks like SO MUCH FUN

  • Avett Brothers Fans on Twitter, please help spread the word and follow my new Avett Brothers Fan Page @Avett_Addiction. Thank y'all so much!

  • I wish I was Jessica Lea Mayfield in this video ... sandwiched between the brothers!

  • Wow!! I'm glad I live in the city! This reminds me of the movie Deliverance!

  • best band around these days -- who"s the guy in the hat?

  • NICE NICE NICE NICE!!!!! That is what you call having a fucking great time!

  • The Avett Brothers are amazing. Check out the song on my channel! It's in the same folksy/country vein as these guys. It's like lo-fi folk. It's like indie-lo-fi folk. Like, grassroots-indie-lo-fi folk.

  • this is fucking awesome

  • Awesome tune. Awesome video.

  • That put a HUGE smile on my face. :)))

  • thats what you call jammin

    

  • this reminds me of Bobby D....

  • @mikepl92 it's track 5 on Emotionalism

  •  in the 70's was a lot people like this, i like it !

  • Holy crap, Joe was singing!

  • Go search MIPSO TRIO right now(actually, wait until this amazing song is over) and then listen to them. They are an uprising band similar to Avetts.. Like this up to spread the word to an Avett-inspired band! Go Avetts and GOOOO MIPSOOO!

  • 28 people were never hugged by their parents.

  • @barrya4202 Make that 30. . . its a real shame. :/

  • 28 ppl lick ther own taints

  • amazing!! :)

  • you can see that the chick didn't know the sone. she looks uncomfotable, and only sings a very little of the chorus, while everyone else is belting out the words. thats the best part about this vid.

  • @se7enfoot im sure jessica knows all of their songs... they're really good friends and do alot of collaborating. she just has an aquired voice. if youd check out some of her original tunes or even some of the songs she does with scott and seth u would like them

  • (27 person are unable to LOVE !)

    Pretty in love with ther beards ahahah

  • Anaheim,Cali<3

    That's what's up

  • Appropriately funny...such a bright light in this world.

  • this makes me sooo happy that I'm on the planet as the same time as these guys!

  • best road trip ever. haha

  • 26 dislikes?? fuck off

  • i just posted a video reply...if you guys listened to it...i would be FOREVER GRATEFUL AND HONORED you guys are my inspiration and i love everything about your music...anyways if you listen that would be amazing if you don't i understand! but thank you for these songs....

  • It's weird...I've listened to songs of theirs before...but the other day I saw a concert with them, on TV. I am now officially hooked. It's so nice to know there is music like this out there with heart, humor, and love behind it.

  • they look like they have so much fun. great musicians

  • The dirty hippies are back. wow !

  • damn thats a lot of people in what looks like a small confined space.

  • The Avett Brothers graduated with my brother and sister at my high school. And they came to my homecoming last year.. cause of course.. it was their high school. It's kinda cool cause they had their band when they were in high school and no one didn't really take them seriously.. and they also have a house like 15 minutes away from my house! pretty awesome right? and im thinking they are gonna sing at my graduation this year. im so exited!

  • @amber995086 thats awesome, they make me so happy to be from NC

  • @fenixonfireee : that's because what they sing at the beginning of this song is actually something they usually do at the beginning of "Talk on Indolence." THey usually sing it a lot faster, too. Both songs are great!

  • My best friend's friend said he thinks this is what heaven will be like.

  • @matc1 I sure hope so :)

  • @matc1 your friend's friend is sorta close.........this IS part of heaven......enjoy it all for all you're worth........heaven doesn't last forever.......

  • @matc1 not enough women in this to be heaven but it can be the soundtrack of it ! ;)

  • @leroidezastah i'd have to say that i would totally switch all the girls in heaven for these guys ;)

  • @matc1 We can only hope!

  • @matc1

    I believe your friend!!

  • absolutely amazing...but its hard to believe this masterpiece was actually directed by someone lol

  • 3:21

  • Wade version is better than this version :D

  • i would do anything to be that girl in the glasses between seth and scott

  • @pats2stud I would give anything to have her talent and songwriting ability. If that is what you mean.

  • I have this song on my cell phone but it starts when they start to sing: I open my door [...] a pretty little gal with pretty little curls...Weird!

  • @fenixonfireee that's because the part they do at the beginning of this song is actually the beginning of 'Talk on Indolence." THey usually sing it a lot faster, too. I love both songs. :D

  • @fenixonfireee : that's because what they sing at the beginning of this song is actually something they usually do at the beginning of "Talk on Indolence." THey usually sing it a lot faster, too. Both songs are great!

  • you hippies can sure rock

  • you hippies can sure rock

  • this is what music is.

  • I usually don't listen to music like this. However, the passion in this is just incredible, and passion is what makes music beautiful. Well done, Avett Brothers.

  • @Jagabomb17 EXACTLY!

  • I don't listen to music at all these days.. And I don't buy noise.. but I like this song.. But just barely..

  • this song is so cute! <3 not to mention these guys are pretty good ear & eye candy.. ;)

  • this song is so cute! <3 ..not too bad on the eyes either..

  • i want to quit my job, learn the harmonica, grow a beard, and hang out and play music with these fine folks in their trailer for the rest of my life...

  • Of all the Avett Bros videos out there, probably my favorite. I wish they would record this exactly as heard here, with the slowed down beginning of Talk on Indolence overture.

  • Avett Bros are waaaayyy cooler than other brothers, like Booth Bros and Mario Bros to name a couple. milk+mario<Avett music + second degree burns

  • God i love this....

  • Awe too cute!!! When the fall at the end and Chittlin' peeks out from behind Scott's and Seth's shoulders.

  • ANAHEIM thats right!!

  • that girl looks like she's in a trance

  • this has just completely cheered up my rubbish new years eve :D haha

  • Who is that girl inbetween them?? Whoever she is, she is the luckiest girl ever!

  • @sararobin1234 It's Jessica Lea Mayfield - she's awesome and has a new album coming out next month - check her out!

  • WTH.. Its the Manson Family...

  • Its the Manson Family...

  • perfectly chaotic <3

  • it's rare to see artists today that play with some heart and soul. just seeing a bunch of people loving life and music so much is uplifting.

  • wow. amazing song and video.

    the girl standing in between them reminds me A LOT of an ex-girlfriend of mine.

    miss you lindsay...

  • There should be NO dislike button on here because it is IMPOSSIBLE to dislike this!!!!!!!

  • Im from Bogotá - Colombia.. i think this ban is awersome!! I would like the come here!

  • jessica lea mayfield is possibly the most amazing artist in this video

  • So sad....so hard when one feels this way...

    Atlases of rushing river...and then caves of despair....both unpredictable.

  • @IMTHEJUGGERNAUT im sorry you typed in justin beiber and didnt get what you were looking for, but that dosent mean you should hate on actual talent

  • @IMTHEJUGGERNAUT your a retard

  • i wish you guys would have played this version of the song as your encore! its kinda fitting. keep on inspiring, hopefully radio play doesnt influence you to forget the music you LOVE

  • the begining of this is so bob dylan

  • Just imagine if someone farted... They'd never know who XD

  • Ooh, Seth. <3

  • yes???????????????????????????­???????? YES!

  • I wish they would record a slow version of "Talk on Indolence"

  • @mikepl92 Yeah, the version here is really cool.

  • @mikepl92 lol isnt that what this is

  • @sydneyc1234 Her name is Jessica Lea Mayfield and she's a good friend of the bros. She's sometimes awkward during live shows and in video but she's a phenomenal musician nonetheless

  • god theyre beautiful

  • Hey wasn't one of you in Nemo. I think I saw ya at a private party downtown in the 90's sometime ago. rock on!!

    Derek/From here on out

    Kill em off productions

  • How do they make that awesome bass/guitar/bango mooing cwo like sound at 3:22?

  • @BigGunsBates sounds mostly like bass to me but idk it is rather unique

  • @BigGunsBates thats the cello being played with a bow

  • I don't like awkward-hands-in-pockets girl in this video. she looks uncomfortable and it hinders the listening experience.

  • @sydneyc1234 Plus she sings some of the parts off key

  • I love you guys!!!! Please come to London soon! xxx

  • Frist part of the song is Talk On Indolence then goes into Will you return. Awesome though, love the video. I'm sure this was something none involved will forget.
