Absolutely Brilliant Song. These guys just keep getting better and better in EVERY FACET. I've seen them 4 times already this year, and I can't wait to make it 5! Seriously, GO SEE THIS BAND NOW.
Of the literally hundreds of Avett Brothers performances I have watched on youtube, this is easily my favorite. Whenever a friend wants to learn more about them, this is the video I direct them to. Simply amazing.
Best live version that I’ve heard. Incredible crowd. This song sounds better when it’s not so fast, in my opinion. I like how they only pick it up at the end and fucking rock out.
My mouth waters, I get goose-bumps, and I can't stop smiling! Whenever I hear this I end up singing it in my head and even aloud for hours. It just goes to my heart... :0)
I only became an avett fan last year and I've been lucky enough to see them live since, but I would absolutely kill to be at one of these older shows. Awesome performance
American musical forms are brilliantly, idiosyncratically bendable, exchangable, mixable and utterly surprising. As long as there are authentic, talented singers, songwriters and musicians, there will always be brilliant music...never give up, it never dies...its just that sometimes you have to look around to find it.
This version of this song goes straight into my 'top ten songs of all time.' Along with 'Visions of Johanna' by Bob Dylan, 'Many Rivers To Cross' by Jimmy Cliff, 'Where is My Mind' by the Pixies and 'Bloody Mother Fuckin' Asshole' by Martha Wainwright. Absolutely superb.
OH GOD, I LOVE THIS SONG, TOO!! Great job on this vid. something about the killer jam at the end of this song that always gets me no matter where i'm at-i swear one day driving i'm going to rip my steering wheel from the column! these guys are THE best and are like no other!! THANKS for posting!
Saw these guys twice in Dallas and thought they were the best live act I've ever seen. They put everything they have into their music...my favorite band is Kings of Leon but the Avett Bros live act is a tad better I must say.
Their new album is going to be great! I hope this one, and it spread, and a lot of others are on it. Also that song they played at attucks theatre that has no name. This band rocks!
i 100% agree. i have seen them 11 times now, and the last two (this summer) i felt like something was missing. maybe its just me, because my father enjoyed them, but i felt like there wasn't that energy or power... something was missing
I think it's referring to the love that "people" say you make, kinda like asking if what the people said was a lie about the love you make. Though it really doesn't matter, this song is still Amazing in every way
wow, to each his own i guess. January Wedding, Ill With Want, Perfect Space, And it Spread. Its different live than studio, but thats nothing new with the Avetts. Ever seen November Blue played live as it is studio ?They actually slow that down live, its all good though, I really like it.
Not sure where you're getting your info but that have said at numerous shows ie Stone Pony, NYC, Bonnaroo that it will be. As well as "St. Joseph's, Tin Man, And it Spread & Murdered in the City"
@ffncl i agree. i think the video of them playing it at bonaroo was the most amazing live preformance of this song they will ever do. for some reason they took the vid down?
Absolutely Brilliant Song.

Those last 30 seconds seriously might be the greatest thing I've ever seen/heard.
I literally just got chills. I cannot WAIT for Thursday. 6 hours of driving is BEYOND beyond worth it for these boys.
Of the literally hundreds of Avett Brothers performances I have watched on youtube, this is easily my favorite. Whenever a friend wants to learn more about them, this is the video I direct them to. Simply amazing.
this was my first avetts show ever. i've listened to them everyday since then
Dear God...
Well, now that I know what perfection sounds like... Everything else will seem subpar.
still the greatest version of this song, the last 30sec is amazing

this song makes me cry.
i saw it live two nights ago, and it was AMAZING.
still the best version of this song. every show they give 100%
I could watch them everyday and still never be any less amazed by them! They are what great is.
the avetts are just fantastic, especially this song.
definitely one of the best bands to see live
This may be one of the best versions ive EVER heard of this... And that ending I wish would go on for 10 min.. Absoultely killer!!
We missed this concert by two weeks....Shame...boatloads of Shame....
This song just made me fall in love with the avett brothers!
I only became an avett fan last year and I've been lucky enough to see them live since, but I would absolutely kill to be at one of these older shows. Awesome performance
surely one of the greatest endings to a song i've seen in a long time!
just saw them tonight. what a great show! these guys really know how to perform!

I can’t love this more..❤❤❤
An abundance of talent, energy and good times...
I really NEED this song to be on the new album... Tin Man too.

Absolutely superb.
Great harmonies and musicians-never mind all the big productions of today, this is just real.
I keep coming back to this vid over and over. Thanks so much for posting it!
could be one of the best bands living memory
this is the best version of this song on the web :)
I wish all concerts people were quiet like here... the sing-along is just annoying...
Can't have enough of this video... THANKS
first time i ever did see a head banging cellist.... brilliant!!!!!
Yes, you are absolutely right - I love love love this video! You and I are on the same wavelength!
one of the most perfect songs! :)
Its your boy Iamdynamite and I am back at it again letting everyone know that this is STILL the best version of laundry room. Wait for that last 30sec
Pretty much can't get enough of this song.
/gimlik
beautiful song. i hope it's on their next album.
it amazes me that the album this song is on has not even been released yet, but this video has 53,000 views. jeezzz
incredible. beautiful song, amazing ending.
I hope this comes out on The Gleam 2!!! Awesome new song!
Please do not ever remove this !! ❣
"Tonight I burned the lyrics, cause every chorus was your name." Man, I wish I'd written that.
OH GOD, I LOVE THIS SONG, TOO!! Great job on this vid. something about the killer jam at the end of this song that always gets me no matter where i'm at-i swear one day driving i'm going to rip my steering wheel from the column! these guys are THE best and are like no other!! THANKS for posting!
Best version of the song. Right here. What a performance.
now this is the video to watch by this band, the crowd is quiet during the performance so you can hear the band.
the ending is the greatest thing ive ever heard
this is one of the best videos I've seen of them... thank you for posting this!!!
My memories take me back to The Louvin , Willborn ,Everley Bros. AWESOME
Saw these guys twice in Dallas and thought they were the best live act I've ever seen. They put everything they have into their music...my favorite band is Kings of Leon but the Avett Bros live act is a tad better I must say.
I'll be at the show on Nov 12th too--really hope they play this.
still haven't found a better version of this song
only band that can have a pause like that and still pull off a rockin ending
694 is capacity at this theatre.. I would kill to see them like that now!
fav song off the new album so far..
WOOOOO The awesome energy of this performance makes me want to get up and dance or something.
This is my favorite version of this song, I like it even better than the studio version.
amazing, last 40sec gave me chills
Awesome song!
Their new album is going to be great! I hope this one, and it spread, and a lot of others are on it. Also that song they played at attucks theatre that has no name. This band rocks!
Speak for yourself volmon... I'm from NC and these guys are the best thing going.
Atlanta 9/10. It will be my first show.
i 100% agree.
i have seen them 11 times now, and the last two (this summer) i felt like something was missing. maybe its just me, because my father enjoyed them, but i felt like there wasn't that energy or power... something was missing
@ffncl I agree. Go find that TIny Desk NPR version of Laundry Room if your want to see the power potential of this bad boy!!!
the best laundry room ever
@gilsjeep2000
Then you need to hunt down Live at the Double Door Inn and Smilefest bootlegs! Truely amazing both their new stuff but also the old!

I wish I'd been there live...
this is just sooo fricken good
Incredible.
BEST FUCKING BAND EVER!!!
"tonight I'll burn the lyrics, cuz every chorus was your name..."
this is a good version but i like the tiny desk version better. everyone should check it out its awesome!
the videos are so great, but nothing can capture the intensity of being there and clapping and jumping and screaming.
It will be for sure.
Miss you so bad Ronnie
Raw, real and makes me want to drink from the tap.
love it when they brake that shit down at the end!!!!
Chills at 5:00, I felt it in my soul.
Not sure where you're getting your info but that have said at numerous shows ie Stone Pony, NYC, Bonnaroo that it will be. As well as "St. Joseph's, Tin Man, And it Spread & Murdered in the City"
Haha, I don't think the audience really knew what was being said either. One girl shouts "Yes" and another yells out "No," as far as I can tell.
@phloydrix He is saying, "Is it a lie?" He says it almost every time they perform this song.
Came back to elevate..
so perfect
love wrote a letter would be "The Ballad of Love and Hate".
it's going to be on their full length, as will tin man.
AMAZING!!
@gilsjeep2000 I frowned because it was over! There is also the replay button 0:00 ........
@ffncl i agree. i think the video of them playing it at bonaroo was the most amazing live preformance of this song they will ever do. for some reason they took the vid down?
@gilsjeep2000
I get chills watching the end
@katiediddidwhat I wonder if they played that song at this show too
4:53-5:35 AMAZING
Norfolk?!?!?! WHERE WAS I?!?!?!
@jwickham65 Very well said. Couldn't agree more.
Wow just wow
@iamthesilver check out the one from bonnaroo.......i think it has this version beat, just barely.
Rockin' the hat.
I would kill to be there
If this isn't on The Gleam II, I am going to be very disappointed!!!
5 people didn't wait until the ending
@iamthesilver I concur!!!
Not often you see an asian dude headbang while playing the cello.
