    David- Hearing you perform again was a breath of air so fresh and so sad , that during some listens of Purple Mountains, I just Laid down in the Dirt. I know we are real real real real real real real....I know it, I'm pleading for it to be true

    At first I was like, whoa this live "We Are Real" is 10 minutes long? Then I realized that Dave Berman was gonna tell the most long-winded, but surprisingly poignant story I've heard in a while. Kind of a plus I guess. Either way, one of my all time favorites - "realizing is how it feels inside when it happens to you."

      A hair over 3 and a half minutes is "long-winded"... It's the highlight of the video for me!

    just heard a taste of this on FSTV Democracy Now! in between discussion about Kashmire (~made me think to say "Hi" to Shahid on the other side as well)...time and space are converging today for me...Shout-out to the Right To Symbolically Refuse Things, to the Right to say NO, or Yes, to the Right to make Choices and Change. We really are never gonna get it done...Thanks Again David for being so kind, RIP My Dear Friend.

      9 years late, but I hope you found that song. If you didn’t, it was eyes without a face by Billy Joel

    Mr. Berman sounds absolutely awful but then again I didn't love Silver Jews because Dave Berman could carry a tune. And at least watching this video I didn't get the uncomfortable feeling that things were going to unravel at any second as I did when I saw the band live in 2006. "We Are Real" is one of my favorite songs ever and "American Water" one of the greatest albums ever. That's not an exaggeration.

    This band is so underrated. Always been a pavement fan since day one and I love this side project

    • @fuckmitchhanes
      @fuckmitchhanes 5 ปีที่แล้ว +57

      i mean it's not really a side project. and Berman definitely didn't want it considered that.

      I dont think they were underrated, they got as much attention as they deserved and perhaps a bit more
