Jim O'Rourke - The Workplace / Manchester 2000

Jim O'Rourke plays The Workplace at Manchester's Contact Theatre in May 2000. Sorry about the wobbles - didn't want to get my new camera confiscated ;-) Have also uploaded "Not Sport, Martial Art + Fuzzy Sun" from the same concert; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2c2XblYcOc

O M G !!!!! thanks!!!!!!!!!!

You're welcome. I had to share it - I'm sure Jim wouldn't mind...

interesting deviations from the studio version. So much musicality. Revealing vocal performance, i think. Quite the retiring violet. Such a shame, how can he walk away so easily from songwriting with that much talent!? Unique lyricist as well.

these videos are great posts, excellent job man!

If you turn it up some, you can hear audience members giggling and complaining over the length/repetition around the 6 minute mark. Yet, to me, the repetition is symbolic of the workplace, and it makes this piece that much better

I've had these two Jim O'Rourke videos under my "favorites" for a long time. I watch them often. I am a huge O'Rourke fan. Thank you so much for sharing these videos.
