I've never smoked meth and drove the wrong way down the interstate at night, blindfiolded, with my lights off, but if I did, this would be playing full blast.
I cant explain how dissapointedd I am that neither of the studio songs sound like these renditions. Much more raw, much more energy, much more feeling.
If you're talkin about the segment at 3:20 it's a lot easier to do than you'd think. The main catalyst in playing like that is volume and knowing a few tricks. When you land with enough force on a few notes (for example in this particular segment the notes played are 0-12-0-15-12 with 0 being the open D) you can take your fingers off of the fretboard and it will cause the string to vibrate with the open note. Plus he was in a noise band where he wore a thick pink bunny mask and couldn't hardly see shit so in short JPD's just really good with his fingies.
That's how I approach this band. An Osees album just says, "Hey, if you come to see us live, we'll show you the real version." And it works because you almost always want to hear the real version.
I don't think anyone is stoked about that. At least the silver lining is that now we will have professionally shot and recorded live show for the archives! Nothing beats a live show though
@@totalgarbage2053 nah John Dwyer in the middle of the day halfway through a set was the only John Dwyer for a long time and he was still a total maniac,squattin and firin' big ol' guitar-lasers into the ceiling
This is peak Osees live, the perfect line-up. The keys player in the middle adds so much to their sound. It's like when Wilco added Glen Kotche and Nels Cline, only rad. Even the visual of them on stage in this setting feels iconic, with the straw hats and grizzled looks. When they all bob their heads in unison, it's like watching a coven cast a spell. And they sound like a band that has just been playing together for months. They are clockwork. This a truly impressive performance and one that should have people talking about Osees as the premier live rock and roll act in America, which they are.
Yeah; that floated into my mind too when they were playing. And the sky looks nice behind them. In fact, pretty much everything about this session is perfect.
guys not every outdoor filmed concert is Pompeii... this one doesn't even do anything to actually remind you of that... no steady tracking shot, no rolling dolly, no capture bass cam, none of the editing tricks... just a couple dudes walking around with handhelds
I met the singer in a gasstation in Belgium while on the road to Pukkelpop festival. I only realised it was him untill I saw him on stage later that night!
Few years ago, You Tube recomanded me this band and I didn't like it, I wasn't ready... Now... It's 04h a.m., I have to get up at 06h for work but I can't stop listening, I'm not ready... 🤷♂️
I cannot believe that actually played these songs together. Chem farmer has always been one of my favs even though its so simply. Love it being paired with Nite Expo. Fucking awesome.
I never clicked into this band until this video and performance. Now I get it. I’ve watched this 10 times in 3 days and I plan on ripping them off as much as possible on my next album.
thebestever475 um 😐 oh sees predates King Gizz. Gizz takes influence from Oh Sees. Oh Sees literally helped produce ‘I’m in Your Mind Fuzz’ and ‘Quarters’ on Castle Face Records. Oh Sees is a huge influence on King Gizz.
If they needed a band scene in another adaptation of the Dark Tower then they could use this footage as is; or just get John and the boys to play again I suppose. I just cannot get over how good this performance is; it blows my mind every-time.
Hats off to whoever ran sound on this!
Hats off to the drummers
Hats off to everyone involved for pulling off such an incredible performance.
Especially in mixing the drums badly in the first song...
This is truly when these guys became the greatest rock group on the planet.
Hats off to ur mom
john dwyer was born with shorts on
2:05 Man, after that keyboard interlude, you are so-o-o ready to hear that guitar rip!
I've never smoked meth and drove the wrong way down the interstate at night, blindfiolded, with my lights off, but if I did, this would be playing full blast.
Why is this so weirdly spot on 😂
I have but with one eye open not recommended
Done it, only not blind folded , listening to black sunshine.
@@felonydonut109, that album blew my face off in the 90s.
Never a time like the present.
The decision to add another drummer is brilliant! They can add complexity when they want or just play in synchrony. They did both here, masterfully.
The way one drummer goes off while the other keeps the beat reminded of how CAN recorded the drum solo for "Mother Sky". I dig it.
Check out king gizzard live sets it's great
@@TheGoobsters Eric left though it's only one drummer now rip
@@TheGoobsters Check out Grateful Dead live sets it's great
@@TheGoobsters I love King Gizzard!! Best band going right now IMO.
I cant explain how dissapointedd I am that neither of the studio songs sound like these renditions. Much more raw, much more energy, much more feeling.
This is like the post-apocalyptic version of the band.
hahaha
I thought hipster John would repel me
but it works beautifully
All that remains is cockroaches and Osees ☢️
The Mad Max-version.
@@standinsilence king gizzard and thee oh sees need to team up to score a mad max film
If there's a band that would play to save earth's humanity for survival, gotta be these dudes.
Oh sees and Gizz! saving the world from the forces of evil.
Dywer not a hope he 'd leave u 4 dead in his own mush pit ! rincon maybe might give a shit
Having keys live was one of best additions to this lineup. Fills out their sound and compliments the guitar so well
John Dwyer: Moves guitar slightly to his right
Guitar: An entire melodic phrase
Yeah man, almost seems fake, but it's just tight as f
The best rock 'n roll music comes across as if it's being made by supernatural means.
@@fastsavannah7684 agreed...This rawks mighty righteously
That's what I was thinking the whole time. He's so fucking relaxed but so tight.

John looks like if your young High School english teacher started doing drugs again and quit to join a punk rock group
I think he looks like he works at a sustainable food cooperative
That'd be Bob Pollard.
@@ebstooge haha right. it's always funny seeing Bob's former students find his content on youtube
or just like a whole foods employee hahaha
He looks like a really chill but secretly heavy art teacher
This is the best version of Nite Expo
And I think that has to do with these new beards and 'staches....
They're the extra hairy versions :D
I vote for the hats as well.
@@shornmudrach9863 yeah Tim the Farmer is really hitting those root notes well :)
It's really interesting to see Dwyer on the Gibson. He usually uses that lucite guitar with metal fret board.
That's how I approach this band. An Osees album just says, "Hey, if you come to see us live, we'll show you the real version." And it works because you almost always want to hear the real version.
I love these, but you can tell John is not as stoked compared to the energy he puts off when he's in front of a crowd, we love you johnny boy
I don't think anyone is stoked about that. At least the silver lining is that now we will have professionally shot and recorded live show for the archives! Nothing beats a live show though
Could also be that it was the middle of the day and this looks about halfway through the show
@@totalgarbage2053 nah John Dwyer in the middle of the day halfway through a set was the only John Dwyer for a long time and he was still a total maniac,squattin and firin' big ol' guitar-lasers into the ceiling
He's just upset that he can't swallow the microphone this time.
@@doorstepcult2407 "Fuckin COVID, I can't taste the exquisite metal!"
love how John's mic has a mask on it so he can still eat that mic.
I just recently discovered the Osees, and they kick ass. I love their music.
I always wanted to hear chem farmer live:)
I just can't get enough of this performance. dayum.

@@panopticsblog841 Amen. I am also really impressed by their variety of styles. They really are outstanding
The entire show was incredible but damn this is a highlight. And Sewer Fire! Never thought I’d see that played live.
@@panopticsblog841 Well said.
I really hope they keep those two songs together when start playing live again! Hearing chem farmer live makes so so happy
bringing back the classics
Lol they play these at every show?
@@Sunn_on_my_D they usually dont play chem farmer
John's out here looking like the Rickety Cricket, I love it
Hips and nips baby hips and nips
Only thing he’s missing is the neck wound
Cricket!
also kind of a john k vibe
ladies and gentleman, John Dwyer; the undisputed king of tone
hot damn, you're right
For real. The songs are great, but it's the tone that's got me hooked.
That is exactly what I thought. This is my first time hearing OSees, and I was a fan the second I heard that guitar riff. You know which one I mean.
@@LordLargo37 Buuhh DAAAAH buuh DANAA Buuhh DAAAAH buuh DA-NAA
Doug Marcsh/ built to spill is high up on the list
This is the band to see - LIVE! Hands down. Damn...
The transition between songs is just. *chefs kiss*
That GTR tone when nite expo hits is huge.
The best group of eardrum destroyers on the hemisphere, no doubt.
well put
I saw them once...
It was incredible and incredible loud!
Not chem farmer.
Saw them last weekend, they fucked my ear up!!!
John sure makes his drummers earn their money!
It's like Live at Pompei.
Yeah; that floated into my mind too when they were playing. And the sky looks nice behind them. In fact, pretty much everything about this session is perfect.
Low rent live at Pompei. I can dig it.... and shit.
guys not every outdoor filmed concert is Pompeii... this one doesn't even do anything to actually remind you of that... no steady tracking shot, no rolling dolly, no capture bass cam, none of the editing tricks... just a couple dudes walking around with handhelds
Loving these new renditions of old songs
2:16 GUITAR SOUND OF DOOM!!!
This is so amazing!! Thanx for posting all these jams!! Lost track of how many times I‘ve already watched this video.
Damn, that transition is TIGHT
Right??? Who would've thought😩
I can't stop watching this.
Yessssssss!!!!! Can't wait for the broadcast on Saturday!!!!
Killer versions of these tracks. The next oh sees tour will be hotter than fire
Literally, at least if you’re here in CA (because of our current fire situation).
Can’t fucking wait
@@jacobsanchez6924 tis unfortunate
This is my first time listening to Osees and a want to listen to more, this is mint!
So much to love about them, so much to love
You are now hooked 👍
Same for me.
oh my god im so jealous. I wish i could listen to my favorite band for the first time again.
Hope you’re still jamming to them
I met the singer in a gasstation in Belgium while on the road to Pukkelpop festival. I only realised it was him untill I saw him on stage later that night!
Damn I really love this band !!!
can't stop listening to this one
I love them sooo much can’t wait till I can see them again live
I watched this when it came out, and every couple months I come back and jam out to it and its so much fun. Makes my day every time.
Few years ago, You Tube recomanded me this band and I didn't like it, I wasn't ready... Now... It's 04h a.m., I have to get up at 06h for work but I can't stop listening, I'm not ready... 🤷♂️
You're ready
Bruuuh you got a lot of catching up to do lol. 23 albums I think
John looks so at home on the keys around 1:44.
A raging tempo, and its as if he's just a kid playing in the sand.
love it.
I like to think Damaged Bug took the light for a moment 😅
I cannot believe that actually played these songs together. Chem farmer has always been one of my favs even though its so simply. Love it being paired with Nite Expo. Fucking awesome.
Love you so, guys.
ok I wasnt gonna buy the download for this show, but now I see it would be a sin against all the life forms in the universe to not buy it
This is 100% spot on. They shall have my money too.
this is seriously the overall best version of nite expo
By faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
fantastic!!!!!!
Im so glad i found this band!
Must be the 100th time i have watched this, amazing.
I never clicked into this band until this video and performance. Now I get it. I’ve watched this 10 times in 3 days and I plan on ripping them off as much as possible on my next album.
I just cant get enough of this and there is no volume loud enough to blast this. Such a cool vid.
this is the dopest thing ive seen in months
This band is ridiculously great. Glad I’m alive while they rock the shit out of the planet
I feel like this is the first time hes sang the proper lyrics for Night Expo lmao
Lol
if they are his lyrics arent they always right?
wtf is wrong with you? They're having a good time!
@@Pearls_Have_Eyes he accidentally starts from the second verse 90% of the times they play this song
Haha. He made the effort bheh
Aaaaaaaack! San Francisco LEGENDS!
Every one of them is so freaking awesome! Miss Brigid, but dayum they haven't suffered.
best band on the planet. period
No doubt about it
thebestever475 nah oh sees gave birth to king Gizz
no.

Man Orc ist such a Killer Album. Normally Oh Sees Albums are inconsistent but Orc is Awesome from the first to the last second.
This is how all music should sound like ! X🤘🏻X
Love this bass lick man!!
YES!!!
This is good. I like it.
This is awesome, I'm missing the old life, covid life sucks big time
Cool! Thank you from Moncton, NB Canada
Just watched his criterion closet picks and have fallen in even more stupid nerdy love with John 😤😤💚🖤
Hi guys: your chanel is so awesome. Great music everywhere. And great videos. Thanks.

Saludos cordiales desde ciudad Nezahualcóyotl Estado de México 🌵🌴🍻🎸🎉🌶️🥑💞💞
What a band! 💪
well that was goddamn cool, how did it take the TH-cam algorithm for me to hear this?
TH-cam reccomended these guys to me a few years ago. Theyre so cool and always working with some crazy ideas
I was thinking the exact same thing.
welcome to the weird and wonderful world of osees (aka oh sees, thee oh sees, ocs, etc)
Absolutely love this!
is Dwyer playing a melody maker?
Yeah buddy, you know it
It's the OSEES now? Reminds me of a band I used to listen to called The Oh Sees.
Or was it Thee oh sees?
Or OCs... OCS... I’m not sure anymore
I call em now the band formerly known as Prince... I mean band formerly known as thee oh sees
So glad to see that the ohsees are still making gigs
Great mixing. Incredible sounds
Yes! Thank you!
Holy hell!!, this is GREAT!
i never thought i would see chem farmer played live! hell yeah!
And I would have to agree whoever did the production on this is a f****** genius
Such a fantastic band! Brilliant!
Stumbled over yet another good tune.
Yo I've been waiting for a live version of chem farmer forever!!!!
feel so good! thank you guys!
"Obligations hurt WHOOO!!!"
Just wonderful and needed - thanks guys this helped disappear me for a while - brilliant stuff
Banging 🔥🔥🔥 great sound, great video, great band ❤️
Like a lot the part with the synthi.John has a lot of fun making his music
Get footage on bass! I’m trying to learn the riff since 2010
Funnily enough it was originally recorded on a guitar. Petey played a jazzmaster in pretty much standard tuning I think
@@moonchild4806 well yeah i know his famousely secret guitat sounding like a bass phenom but this is as close as it got 😔
This is classic, I love their song Opposition is classic, it’s feels like psychedelic and punk rock. Magic
I didn't realize I keep promoting the shit out of this video. My friends keep getting links. Nice work guys.
THIS IS STRAIGHT FIREEEEEE thanks for posting!
omg this is fantastic
