  • Based on all of the live videos I've seen of this group, they may be the best band around ever to perform live. I love their live gigs in a small venue, as their sound is clean and tight. - smooth vocals with excellent guitar riffs. No distortion and never a dull moment watching them perform. One day, I'm gonna watch them live with a cold Guinness Dark in one hand, snapping my fingers on the other, and moving my legs to the beat of their

    unigue "wall of sound" !!

  • Not too bad for 50 year old white dudes... And opposed to Billy Joel (etc) you can get tickets for under $200...

    Just sayin'

  • Love the shit out of the Smithereens, but at the risk of sounding catty....Pat, if you're going to wear a hat of a bicycle parts company, you might want to hop on a bike yourself every now and again.

  • Pat, come back to Chicago,IL in 2012!

  • Maybe my favorite band ever. And most definitely one of the most underrated bands ever. The hits on their videos are disappointing. Do they make bad songs? Everything they do is smart, engaging, and tight. I just don't understand how more people don't see this. Pat has a great voice and all the guys play there arses off! Anyhow, my fave Smiths song. Such great words and rhymes in this one. I think I am gonna see them in January in Philly. Party on Wayne....

  • Garage Band? Where is the garage they practice at? I'd pay to see them there. What is wrong with 50 yrs old. I am in my 60's and I'm still rocking with my Ric 370 12. Remember almost everything you hear today had it's roots in our day. It has just been modified somewhat. No originality anymore. More electronic and less musicianship. Enjoy these guys. THey are stripped down but they are good. Keep it up Smithereens!!

  • i love em! a garage band yes but the best garage band ever

  • Hey man, hold a seat for me till I get there!

  • one word, Awesome. thanks Smithereens!!!

  • 5 people ain't go no soul.

  • Fucking awesome band. Great grooves, great songs. Thanks Simthereens!

  • keep on keepen on, great song by a great band!
