[Soupstorm]

@2:38 dat bassline

[freetimecharlie]

holy shiiit

[allaboutdatGDA]

genius band, they are the elvis of our time. and ian's fret's is elvis' pelvis

[ilikecheese1011]

3:17-3:38 damon che getting head

[pabloboswell]

ian williams completely changed the way i viewed guitar composition...thank god for this band.

[thendara69]

could do with borrowing the drummer for some zeppelin jams.

[MrAndrewValdez]

eric emm: national hero

[prinznevsky]

I was at this show, weird...

[Lobones0066]

Damon is such a good drummer rock legend man mad underrated

[TheRedHutt]

You mean Snoopy Waves sounds like a modified version of this? (American Don was written only about a decade before Offend Maggie came out.)

[YogritMUN]

Damon is the most awkward looking drummer I've ever seen in my life.

[uwoodyjk]

sounds like a modiifed snoopy waves by deerhoof

[aridnepenthe]

@uwoodyjk My thoughts exactly

[TheDMarl]

The guy in the crowd at 2.56 always cracks me up. The expression on his face just completely syncs up with the triumphant exuberance of the wistful robot production-line stomp section.

[awesomewelles90]

If there are robots in the future, they will be listening to Don Cab.

[rustygrant]

This is amazingly sick--especially the first minute. I'm new to math. If I were to buy 1 album that sounds like this, what would you recommend.

[tropcis]

esta  rola es Dón Cabrones

XD

[cliffordton]

this was originally written by Darius Rucker

[smitty010493]

ahaaaaaahah nice... i didnt know hootie did math rock

[Tang526]

2:50 sounds like Railroad Cancellations middle part

[nicolascalandriello]

@Tang526

haha its true

[splatterbrain1]

Epic!

[jarmijdad]

Is that Andy Samberg on bass?

[subhumanmaster]

jarmijdad it's Pat Morris on bass

[BMXplease11]

@subhumanmaster nuh uh

[irishrugbyguy07]

ian williams...in my mind, he is on the same level as jimi hendrix and eddie van halen.  totally changed the way the instruments is played.

and damon che just out of his fucking mind.

[kawaramachi907]

What about the bass!!!???

[Blackliam]

you're totally right

[myfriendscallme7]

he is amazing. He's better with don cabs than he is in battles. Both bands amazing though

[Fran100]

ian williams changed the way the guitar was played for the better, van halen not so hahaha

[vivelavidarocka]

Great fucking band..!!

[rajtherat]

he really does flail around like an octopus when he drums.!!!

freakin animal!!!

[oreillymartin666]

They are the best.

[felipe0801]

that fu plays with his snare low!!

[r3dz3phyr]

smell

[tubomane]

these guys really rule!

[YogritMUN]

weirdest drum set up i have ever seen. sweet band though.

[evansplashgarrett]

Check out the band Battles!

[spookbrian]

I was there and asked him why he played such an obviously impaired setup and he told me it made more space between each drum so he could play louder and to fuck off! Haha

[4insomniac20]

Ian is the man.

[jacobjacobbruce]

sounds great live.

[TRAS3]

starts with the drums for Details..., then goes into you drink alot of coffee...

[TallFastLoud]

This reminds me very much of Television's first album but everything else I've heard by Don sounds metal-y. I like this better; it's one thing to be super-complex but to use it to make actually enjoyable sounds is impressive.

[charlieonehorse]

for real. all their other stuff sounds like metal

[parallax7d]

check out their last 2 albums, especially American Don, very pretty and not metally. The new Don Cab stuff isn't really Don Cab, unless Don Cab means Damon Che + x.

[redshaftedflicker]

Agreed. Ian is just as much Don Cab as Damon.

[Blackliam]

soooo damn good... is that really improvisation?

[nciviero]

nothing they do is improvised

[EltargrimIrithyl]

Not at all.

[dmarin1]

1.47-1.52 is a lovely.

[KKPUNKER]

what song is this???

[Blackliam]

ridiculous

[quakerman96]

woah now, the don caballero coming to town will not be the same one from this show! everyone should acknowledge that the band around now is not the original and nowhere near as good

[mayorde18]

wow.... so many fucking hours spent in rehearsal, and it sucked

[chickieroboto]

sweet sweet rain

[robertjohnsonnyc]

Don Cab is playing Dec 8th in Brooklyn with Fiasco! I'm excited.

[louderthanthesun]

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS SHOW!!!!

[FruscianteLennon311]

this band is so good! amazing music!

[axelrodjohnson]

that is not pat morris on bass that is eric emm

[famousunknown]

Yes it is Eric Emm. My mistake. I would need to re render the piece and repost, but the other units are correct so I will leave it for now! Thanks! Stanford

[robmcman]

yea man, dont repost, let it be known that it is Eric Emm, not pat morris. Let us close this matter, and not make the host angry and take away this sweet sweet media file. Dear God it doesnt matter.

[radioEXP]

that drummer is effn' sick!

[tmschafer]

goddamn, the transition at 3:00 is amazing

[newobj]

well, crap! i was at this show. by the looks of the angle, i was probably standing right next to you!

[MmirrorismM]

2:00 - 2:10 che enters this ride that eventually has to slow down and he does that beautifully.

[timmich65]

Was this at the Breakroom? Or its predecessor? I saw them there sometime in the late 90's...maybe this show.

[prodigalsounds]

american don is one of the best albums i've ever heard

[Bigtime1998]

I was at this show. Pretty amazing band.

[slartibartfast12]

dont go see don cab now, its not the same

[wackiirahki]

and being a bassist myself, i must say eric was/is the s**t! to hold it down in this band is nothing short of a miracle...

[wackiirahki]

too bad ian and che couldn't see eye to eye anymore...i think that artistic conflict between the two is what made their music so special...

[tmschafer]

just excellent.

Eric Emm, son!

[lucidinterval43]

Hey what song is this? Also what album is this on?

[Bigtime1998]

You look beat after a night of diet coke and vodka!!

[fsharpflatmajor]

damon looks beat

[Flatnoy69]

This is so great...thank you. Check out the Guns of New Hope if you get a chance.

[doncabb]

Thanks brother, you are a true patriot!

[Roswellsounds]

How lucky we are with this video. To see a complete Don Cab show was impossible just a few months ago!

For all the Don`s lovers out there: enjoy, fellas! And there are a lot of tunes coming, I presume!

Now, if anybody has some Storm & stress videos...

[insertlamejokehere]

You are a genius for suggesting such Storm & Stress videos. Hopefully the combined wishing of the two of us will produce them. Also, this is unrelated, but did no one ever record a Sharks Keep Moving show? Why aren't these things on the internet? I am so angry at the internet right now!

[Roswellsounds]

Haha... no one seems to care for complex rock bands (except Mr. Stanford here, who taped this entire show!)

No "Sharks..." vids `round here. Not even a "Pele" video!

But be sure to check out this band: It`s called "Buzzard". Search with the band name and "mathrock". There are three videos of them. An excellent trio from early 90`s. And they are back!

[insertlamejokehere]

I'm not sure if you're already aware of this by now, but I recently discovered some Pele vids on the ol' youtube. Just search "Pele Hummingbirds Eat."

[JuanPabl000]

there aint nuthin like new old don cab!

[HomebrewMelvin]

You have made my life, dude. Thanks so much.

Great videos. Awesome uploads. I'm so happy.

[coitalcephalgia]

superb job recording this man. thanks so much!

[insertlamejokehere]

You're doing a great service by uploading this show. I just wanted to encourage the continuation of such activities. On behalf of the entire internet (yes, I have that kind of authority), thank you.

[fartsnfire]

This song was originally called That Badge Means You Suck. There is another vid on here from a show in Chicago in '99 with this song on it. Check it out!

[fartsnfire]

I've been waiting forever for more of this!!!!!! Thanks for getting this up! I know you've been busy.

[drtymac]

HELL YEAHHHHHHH... I haven't even watched it yet but just wanted to say that.

[famousunknown]

Feel free to repost the first few comments! They were lost when I made a correction and re uploaded the video! Thanks! Stanford.
