I’ll never forget the night this aired and I blasted the volume on my TV... thank God this album came out!!! ROTTING PIÑATA is/was an EPIC production. SPONGE had the best live concerts
Man so glad i found this. I have VHS tapes in a storage bin in my garage. I really need to see about getting them transfered to dvd. I have so much old great stuff like this live performance on it. And bands like DIG on John Stewart. Damn! Makes me wish i have fukn vcr so i could bust em out now! Lol
@@SARJdkhaha right on...if i ever do i need to upload em for sure to youtube. I never have used youtube to upload videos except one time years ago. It was just a video for my cousin..but how knows maybr someday i can do that..my niece is gling to school for cinama and television arts and learning editing n stuff so she is good at the techy stuff so maybe one day she can help. Ita nothin i have on my to do lisy in the near near future but ya never know.
What a great song. Fox used it in the opening montage of the NJ devils game 4 against the red wings (when they won the cup)…..so good. Also, this dude was being this before Scott Weiland was…..influence was huge
I had an early Dolby Surround 4.1 setup connected to my 27 inch "big screen" stereo CRT TV back in the early 90s...and a huge VHS commercial/bootleg music collection that could rival MTV.
Sponge has a very Replacements-esque vibe to them. Not a ripoff, as they definitely have their own sound, but every time I hear "Plowed", or really anything from their debut, and even their second record Wax Ecstatic, I instantly think about Tim, or Pleased To Meet Me, definitely All Shook Down... Those jangly guitars with that undeniable groove that many of those midwest, blue collar, Alt Rock pioneering bands from the 80s and 90s have, they definitely wore their influences on their sleeves.
Saw these guys on May 20, 2023. Only original member is Vinnie the singer. He sounds a lot better now than he did back then. His voice has aged well.
I saw these guys back in 2022 in Ohio, and yeah, the front man was definitely on point! ❤ I’d love to see them again sometime.
Time has been a good thing for him and the sound
Really dug these guys back in the day. This was a great album.
don't know why I was the only one of my friends that liked Sponge. still love these songs.
Damn I love this song. It has so much meaning
I just watched Sponge playing Rainin in Chigaco aug 10 1995. It kicks ass big time.
Jon Stewart had some of the best bands of the era on a show that was GEN X to the MAX!
Hell yeah
I agree
I’m technically a millennial but I also watched this live as a 12 year old (older brothers/sisters influence). I was always stoked on this song 🤘
Elder millenials got in there too. Not old enough to see them live, but old enough to headbang and play air guitar. Probably 11 years old.

Serendipity is like deja vu without the acid flashback feeling
They still do!
Saw them live last weekend! They were solid nailing each song even the classics here! 🎸😎⭐⚡
Might be just me, I miss the days when tv had this visual quality.
Looks more real
This is actually a great performance. Vin is spot on
Aside from the fact that it's played at about 75% speed, I'll agree
Are you high 😅 this is terrible! Great song but boy was this bad 👎🏼
That is a badass performance right there
Miss the 80s and early 90s so much. Was so young, now forever gone
There was a time people made fun of the 80s... I'm glad I lived it ❤
Such an amazing band! Bring back great teenage memories!

I subscribed to you, just in case you ever get a vcr to transfer all those gold nuggets

Great band.
Best live
Can't wait to see them for the first time, they're coming to Ft Wayne in three weeks 🎸🎸
Extremely underrated band
such a good song, the demoed in detroit album is really good as well.
That was such an underrated album! Thanks for posting this performance- also long live Jon Stewart!
Everything that has ever happened is underrated
I saw them in jersey last year. They were amazing.
Thanks for this. Heard quite a few live versions of this and love this one best.
What a great song. Fox used it in the opening montage of the NJ devils game 4 against the red wings (when they won the cup)…..so good. Also, this dude was being this before Scott Weiland was…..influence was huge
One of the most memorable 90’s song hands down
I had an early Dolby Surround 4.1 setup connected to my 27 inch "big screen" stereo CRT TV back in the early 90s...and a huge VHS commercial/bootleg music collection that could rival MTV.
Love this song, always has been my favorite by Sponge. This was an awesome performance!
god I love Sponge I wish they would hit it better, such a talented band
They blew the roof off that dump!
Beautifully the most 90s thing I'm going to see today.
Oh wow! This album, especially this song has touched my soul. Keeps me coming back and moving forward
Love this song
Saw these guys opening for Live back then, had to be within weeks of this performance, was early '95 and COLD here on PA, was in March I think.
Great performance.
This is one of the best live TV appearances I've ever seen. Band is great.
It's incredible this is almost 30 years. I loved this album.
Vinnie has he best voice and attitude! Love Sponge!
It's the years of my life
They sound great here !
Back in 1995, I thought this was Social D....love it
vinnie does sound similar to mike ness, sponge is a little more upbeat than social d.
Oh I have an autograph from these guys
preformance was sharp as a tact
😂😂
Nice raw version…almost like the first time plying it
They were on fire here!
Cool stuff
I remember that I was in Huntington West Virginia at X-Fest
Yes!

90's were the best
i agree, the 90's were the best decade of music,, it will never get better because every sound has been done,, the 90's was the apex.
I went to this taping down at paramount studios. Me and my bestie are on camera several times. Does anyone have this full episode? Please....
Here's a bit of it-Kate Mulgrew and shots of the audience.

My high school graduation anthem
SAW IT👍
What was the last song they sung the clip of
well it's Rainin'! It's rainin' in my house!!
That side shake reminds me of Layne
they came back and played the same song again???
Huntington West Virginia
They're still going with the same lead singer. He started out as a drummer so he has rhythm.
Is the lead singer the father of the singer for Maneskin
Ahah maybe;)
Much better times!
Chasing mavericks
The best Grunge band of all time
AIC
that mic stand fail about 2m in is epic
What is epic about it?
@@danacoleman4007 let me explain. you see, grungy 90s bands tended to......
@@jdcnyc oh..... zzzzzzzzzzzzzz........
I love this song, but I swear the lead singer stripped my A/C unit of all its copper.
The singer is trying to be scott weiland
Nah, the singer just doing his own thing. Vinnie is a W
Nah, two completely different vibes
No one else could ever compare to Scott Weiland. Vinnie is his own type of cool
They are extremely disappointing live
