Now if this DOESN'T get at the true spirit of what the "Club is open..." I don't know what would. This is as most excellent as it gets. 4real and then some.
I lived in Dayton for much of the 90's and lived with Dan Toohey for a few years - he played bass on Fast Japanese Spin Cycle, Propeller and Vampire on Titus - Bob, his brother Jim, Tobin, and Mitch would rehearse and practice in our house all the time. Most of Bee Thousand, Under the Bushes, and Alien Lanes were written in my basement. I toured with GbV for years in the back of this old van selling shirts and tapes and setting shit up. When Tobin and Mitch left, it was my graduation time too
Unbelieveable!! It seemed as if the whole crowd of picnickers knew this song! Bob and GVB must have had a hard on for a moment..even through the endless amount of beer! Great music getting you off..or high(Glad Girls etc.)Whiffle ball bat? OUCH!
Don't worry, I wasn't saying the Who influence was a bad thing. GBV is one of my favorite bands -- I was just pointing out that the 80's underground punk stuff had little to do with the existence of GBV, and that Pollard and crew would be a-rockin' without them. But this video: This makes me ridiculously giddy.
This just about made me cry. I love these guys.
songs u can sing at the top of your lungs...that's what makes em great...GBV forever...

Best time I ever had was at this place. Bob and his people are the finest human beings on the planet. Without question.
The most underrated rock band.

Pardon the typo The Beatles Man & GBV there are very few bands that even come close,
I challenge every concert-goer who hates crowds that sing along to watch this and not immediately retract their views on the subject.
The greatest American band ever.
The Greatest band That ever lived next to The Breatles They are 1 & 2 Nothing else can quite Compare to either
Indeed!
I'm with you.
Have a good night. I will dream of having a drink with ole Bobby!
Bob pollard and Perry Farrell
My two spirit guides..
STOP - Reunion? Can I believe my eyes? they really played a show together again? all original members?
RULING CLASS!!
@bobngo10 I was at that SF show and there were tons of young people. I was one of the few "older men (probably drunk)" up front, in fact...
and Bob Pollard on vox/ whiffle ball bat.
Is Mr Demos sitting down playing bass??
I was in the same English class as he.
(ps: how'd you like my correct English??)
Hmm. Someone's been reading a bit too much Our Band Could Be Your Life.
GBV owes a little more to The Who than any of these bands, man.
Disarm the settlers. The new drunk Drivers..Guided by Voices Forever!!!!
Nonoy of The Happiest/Davao/Philippines
