Modest Mouse - Paper Thin Walls (Live)

[MrCaptainchronic99]

This should be Facebook's theme music!

[bengirox1]

@MrCaptainchronic99 haha

[daisygirl1217]

oh man that soooo sucks! but he did a good job making it work for himself...Good job Isaac!

fav verse: "I can't be a fool for anyone, that I don't know"....

[Jont93]

smooth change

[pappafly]

yeah you can see the string hanging, deff broke... which is also an amazing song (broke)

[mbarnhead16]

you can hear the string break @ :51

[piccillinghe]

in which album is paper thin walls?

[631Whatsgood]

@piccillinghe the moon & antarctica

[PinkFloydrulez]

@piccillinghe the moon & antarctica

[TheSkrillex23]

everyone's a voyeur and they're watchin me watch them watch me right now. fuckin great.

[mebe]

why does he change guitars mid song?

[xv0bluedragon0vx]

@mebe broken string?

[mebe]

@xv0bluedragon0vx hmm good thought

[Mutchkallala]

@mebe because every guitar sounds different. guitar A wont fit song B, so he takes guitar B for song B ;) get it?

[krophiquon]

@mebe sounds like he hits a couple of sour notes at 0:52 maybe it was out of tune

[Kroush7]

I just love that Modest Mouse had a PBS special.

[MrLightChrome]

The Red bar is so big like Justin Biebers Penis, yes i know it :D

[firetruckgreen]

@Plywoodhall Isaac gets custom guitars built for him. The name of the company escapes me at the moment. I'm sure some Googling would help.

[PlatyStudios]

@firetruckgreen The main one is a wicks.

[Plywoodhall]

WHAT GUITAR IS THE 2ND ONE HES USING

[Jackamole]

@Plywoodhall Looks like a custom made Koll guitar. (A Tornado with a Bigsby trem)

[rickyreyes1189]

the 2 people who dislike this have walls made of paper

[BriannasMommy18]

One of the few bands that I still have respect for!

[knoxville020]

Modest Mouse is the Modest Mouse of our generation.

[dead0piggy]

@knoxville020 I was going to 'like' your comment.

But it had 69 likes and I thought that was pretty funny.

[2012manshitsgoindown]

reminds me of talking head's first album, thats a good thing i think :P

[gamermanx8]

I thought I heard somethin' go screwy.

[MrRaven92]

amazing...!!!!

[sdxxm1]

only 70000 views WTF!! im on the wrong planet

[brandondittman]

@sdxxm1 Yes you are... You should be on the 3rd planet

[WallsTV]

The string breaks, and he goes on singing and the band goes on in tune and he calmly removes the guitar as his tech hands him his new strung guitar and he slams out his riffs with exact anger and calmness that one needs to achieve in life. This band rocks in so many f'n ways!

[devilzgrip]

@WallsTV is that what that noise was before he took off his guitar? because it really worked for Modest Mouse haha

[frankbullit67]

lol twadults 0:45. this song rocks. every time i listen to this band i get a killstreak in cod!

[jeriya909]

I love how Isaac switched out the guitar XD

[twadults]

@jeriya909 You do know its only cause his High e string broke, Right? XD

[jeriya909]

@twadults XD i didnt see that, just saw the string haning

[twadults]

@jeriya909 Yeah you hear the string breaking at around 0:46 XD

[waymankyle]

great song by a great band

[MichaelOhara]

pbs is awesome

[7daedalus7]

If anybody watches Whitest Kids U Know, please tell me that you also think that he looks like he could be Timmy's brother.

[zephyr4619]

best band!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[toferdelachris]

hahaha who's the d-bag who disliked this video?

[KevxMeister]

@toferdelachris lmao corndog chilli beans.

[JFA1331]

man when it just broke down to the held out chords, and the bass riff...i just got some chills and it makes me wanna play with my band so bad

[urmacdonahue]

Smoking has ruined Isaac's voice.

[MissingTime1]

@urmacdonahue He had a singing voice? :) ..

i understand ya though

[ihavevideoatoo]

@urmacdonahue u kidding? al hat smoking drinking and drugs made his voice sound way better for the style of music they play

[WeAreBent]

i'm pretty sure it just went mega out of tune

[bretfavresucksballs]

@TheWuWho I would like to fuck with you and call you a right wing wingnut - but I absofuckinglutey agree with u

[Qber4life]

Haha he sings "you can't be blamed for nothing anymore" right after his string breaks.

[themooseisloose5]

so amazing live

[Disordo]

Such an amazing song! And the band is awesome of course ;)

[funky882]

ahhhh we have our selves one fagatronic douche bag

[EKstudios]

lol his string broke at the exact perfect time!

[nowellbuster22]

two drummers? epic

[SexyLikeAPig]

Does anyone know what make of guitar he switches to after his string breaks?

[xRamble]

@SexyLikeAPig Its a custom in the glide series made by Koll

[SexyLikeAPig]

@xRamble Thanks =)

[Plywoodhall]

did the string break or go out of tune at 00:54 ?

[bman20122772]

@Plywoodhall it broke rite after it happens u can see him hand his guitar off 2 som1 else and the string hanging off the headstock

[certifiedgenius1]

i dont mind that the string broke tbh, cos it just draws attention to the awesomeness of the bassline!

[halosidney3]

Ugh sounds like shit and broke a string within 30 some seconds lol nice love em but not live only when the blunts are in place lol

[macciocapatonda88]

i discovered this great song by watching janoski sk8 part

[charby5770]

I love this song!!!!! "Laugh hard....it's a long way to the bank!!!!"  Great guitar in the beginning - one of the most uder rated bands ever!!!!

[Timmymets]

best band ever.

[indipigment]

I put this song on a video i made of my kids, now it's one of their "baby songs" we listen to it all the time, they sing and boogie. Love the Mouse

[overkill2006]

I love Austin city limits, they always have good bands on there.

[denvarhawks]

fucking amazing

[RAZALAS92e]

What program is this?

[looshkin66]

@RAZALAS92e It's Austin City Limits, its on public television.

[PokeyTheElite]

Isaac Brock isn't that great live, and normally in this song (in the studio version) the band also sings along.

[strace67]

This is ACL, yes

[Mrvote4pedroofficial]

do u guys kno if this wuz from Austin city limits?

[enjoyenjoi638]

i miss their old stuff.

but this stuff is cool too.

[slippage10]

@enjoyenjoi638 this is from 5 years ago.. how is it not old lol

[enjoyenjoi638]

@slippage10, i meant stuff before 2000.

"the moon and antarctica" is good but i like the stuff before 2000 more.

[nedak]

didn't see this before I posted. And there were only two albums before this.

[nedak]

this is pretty fucking old, dude.

[whatELEPHANTSdo]

This is what they should have grown into. Refining their sound but keeping their soul.

[nomad05]

maybe they did and you just dont like it? it's going to sound different and I like it

[rickyslayssmalltowns]

what ever they do is exectly what they need to do, because this band has emotion and they do what they feel, and essentially thats what mattered. sorry for shit spelling im baked hahah

[minazahazazugemo]

I found mp4ify for ripping utube videos as mp3 or mp4 - its free..

[mokeymunoveni]

I grab the music from these clips to mp3 quick and free - lookup mp4ify on any search engine

[kyuubiFOX666]

Modest mouse is amazing!

[greenassskateboard]

such an amazing sound

[sk8boardjay91]

This was on PBS????!?!?!???!!!??

[brokendials]

@sk8boardjay91 i was thinking the same exact thing haha

[abbie5607]

wow they sound really fucking good live :D <3

[chong1504]

This is from Austin City Limits on PBS

[50hertzlol]

Where was this?

[coilgunz999]

my favorite modest mouse song great live

[chrisfinest1]

Man. It seems that none of the audience members had ever been to a Modest Mouse-- nay-- any concert before.

[Knasengoesm00]

2:08 :D HAHAHAHHAH

[franks1no]

@Knasengoesm00 dude dont mess. isaac brock will fuck you up

[Knasengoesm00]

His voice fits to this music and I like it, but @ this point he makes us laught.. Haha

[sibbdelonge]

@franks1no dude, you have to agree that it sounds awful!

[thehooner]

modest mouse effin rocks people!!! and dont any of you forget it!!! lol

[pwn300]

EFFFFF YEA!!

[CarlosvsGodzilla]

What kind of guitars does he use?

[awesomestwyatt]

wicks or wick or something. his other guitar is a koll.

[DEATHbyHEMLOCK]

I can't tell the first guitar he uses. Might be a gibson SG? I know he uses a les paul lately, and I think he swtiched the out of tune guitar for a telecaster.

[andr123w]

thats because neither of the guitars is a gibson. im fairly certain there both custom guitars or maybe vintage. it looks like the first one might say national on the headstock but nationals headstock didnt look like that. not sure about the second

[mrjfray]

I think it's a Heritage.

[jobFORjose]

first one before it goes out of tune looks a bit like a schecter

[andr123w]

not really schecter hasnt made nice guitars for a while now haha. the old tele they made was pretty cool even though it was a knock off

[jobFORjose]

i like the hellraiser <3

but teles are so bad ass haha

[argentina13509]

Idk if Issac Brock would play a schecter. possibly a modified PRS. thats at least what it looks like to me

[dudesons441]

He uses a Wicks. They're located in Portland I believe. He gets them custom made.

[mosterpower123]

It's nice to hear that the 2 drummers, the drums are played perfectly togheter. :)

love modest mouse

[AndrewBehning]

i like to skate to dis song

[ramblinman111]

string break?

[trecoolwwy]

why did he change guitar during song??

[joerover22]

obviously the first guitar messed up , lol, thats why he changed.

[LlamaloverOliver]

At 0:50 you can hear that the guitar is totally out of tune, hence the change.

[electro676]

It happens.

[ISawBonez]

@LlamaloverOliver

It still sounds like awesomenes to mi.

[jfitz1431]

@LlamaloverOliver actually the string broke

[RadioMuse1]

I absolutely love ACL though. Not to say that PBS as a whole is perfect or anything...

[Surge3k]

lol whatever

i miss mister rodgers :P

[Surge3k]

pbs is sick!!!!!!

[DxMonkey]

LoL...I was just thinking that...

I saw the PBS thinggy ...was like WTF...rad.

[reidcore]

their newest album is pretty sketchy but they always have such good shit.

[BiscuitsJoe]

Why did he switch guitars?

[xjakemarinx]

if you pay attention when the breakdown starts isaac tries to play his guitar part but his guitar is out of tune, so he has one tuned and ready just in case...and he switched

[jfitz1431]

@xjakemarinx no one of the strings broke that's why.

[inVinceible16]

got no time no money, that's why

get em up, put em up

get your dukes up now

[ColtnWhite]

they rhythm section is so tight. Eric Judy's bass playin is awesome and Brock uses it so well!

[CarlosvsGodzilla]

awesome guitar change : D

[smegcolin]

One of the best bands around...!

[MrSecretAgentX9]

@smegcolin if not, THE best band around!

[ndfan0032]

they rock so much

[foolonthehillz]

I had to watch this vid like three times to figure out that a string actually broke, he handled it so well :)

[wiilover55]

yea me too, :)

[ColtnWhite]

didn't skip a beat lol he kept it right on goin:)

[ZappyBox]

The string made a cute noise when it broke, and Brock handled it like it didn't even happen. Classy.

[zachy3621]

its like ok ummm unplug lift but keep singing and take the other guitar play

[anulhyf34]

his string breaking was somewhat of a blessing cause it makes you really pay attention to eric's nifty bass lines in the bridge/breakdown part.

[orwin90]

it always wierd me out how they dont put on a great show.. i mean like stage precents wise.. like they are one of my fav. bands, but when they play they just kinda stand there.. and w.e dont say yeah its just about the music, not what they look like.. cuz performing has a lot to do with a show, it can make a shitty band sound good even..

[scubastv56]

Yeah its true that they dont jump around or anything but they sound so good live and you can tell Isaac really gets into it. Also there show last year May 5, i think was one of the best shows ive seen

[pureecstasy]

but u said shitty band. so if a shitty bad has great stage antics, does it make anything better. they are musicians not performers. oasis is one of the biggest, they dont do anything on stage, at all.

[freakonnaisance]

except oasis fucking sucks nuts and mm fucking rules.

[localdummiesguy]

watch an older Modest Mouse show, one from the Black Cat or anything from 1996 on. search "Modest Mouse 1997" and check out "Breakthrough" live. OR, "modest mouse 1998" with isaac screaming into the pickups. That show is crazy! :)

[wushi1945]

what means " Laugh hard it's a long way to the bank" im from germany i dont understand the sense of it , please explain

[applesauceman]

it means money doesnt matter in the end..i think?

[kurt2552]

He's saying that getting rich isn't easy

I think >_>

[mattcattt]

its a play on the saying " I'll be laughing all the way to the bank " so Isaacs saying money really isn't everything.

[butlerKNOWSall]

it's the 'money isn't all powerful' option.

oh, and thanks for the whole world war II situation, asshole.

lol just kidding.

[sweetsoad]

So awesome!

*dies of awesome attack*

[emay75wildcats]

Im seeing them tonight.. its going to be great =]

[wtfah67]

laugh hard its A long way to the

[Taylor3690]

bank

[ArchaicBomber]

I wish I would have been there. What a good show.

[MedievalHollywood]

Does anyone know what amp the guitarist on the left is playing out of?

You can see it at 37 seconds.

Please respond if you do!

[OhValhalla]

That's not a guitar amp at 37 seconds. That's an Ampeg SVT bass amp.

From what little I could see, it looks like the left guitar player is playing through a Fender Twin.

[777Funky]

MORE COWBELL!

[veritas1005]

dann galucci is the man

[zeromessi19]

please aprrove my response i look up to moudest mouse since i was little the my idols like interpol the strokes kings of leon bob dylan the doors and etc.

[jmen1333]

you get a thumbs down for that one chief.

[anulhyf34]

what happened to his guitar?

[jmen1333]

broke his string

[mattcattt]

sounds like a string broke but i don't know

[whiteboytellemm]

Amazing.

[ozoj12]
