The Hold Steady - "Most People Are DJs" - LIVE!

Live at Warsaw, Brooklyn, April 2006.

A classic cut from Hold Steady's first album, "Almost Killed Me." This song was during the encore, and they managed to throw out all the rock-stops in a singe songs, culminating with the best 360 guitar swing ever captured. Tad, you the man!

Shot by Tim LaFollette, Tim Wilson, Brett Heckman and his friend, and Kara Z.

Special thanks to Peter D'Angelo for all the help!

@moofus1 Other than Stations are there any other tunes from this show? This video is too good and it sounds like they go into Killer Parties at the end which might be my favorite tune of theirs.

[beergnome666]

I heard they ripped off their sound from an unreleased record made by some unnamed almighty rock gods who destroyed, like, ten evil universes with awesomeness lasers.

@Jonesiesucks I heard he invented the electric guitar.
