    I've always said this but if I ever started a band, I would aspire to have the spirit of this band. It just looks like such a good time, three best friends doing what they love. So real, so pure.

      Yep, seen them about 15 times, in all sorts of venues, and it always feels like you’re sitting in on a rehearsal in their garage, in the best possible sense.

    In 1997, with grunge on the decline and boy bands on the horizon, the direction I wanted for rock music was "Beach Boys melodies with insane amounts of shoegaze feedback and distortion." This song fulfilled that dream.

    How did I miss this for decades!?
    TLDR: I honestly thought the closest thing to Mr Show/Yo La Tengo crossover in my life would be the month I discovered the two simultaneously, during a dismal Portland February...
    I didn't expect a Yo La Tengo/Mr. Show crossover. Ever. What's weirder is the way it takes me back to a specific time in college... My best friend/roommate introduced me to Mr. Show and we were staying up late to watch it together. No HBO, no cable, just a collection of VHS tapes filled with stuff my friend recorded when she'd been home (including every episode of Mr. Show).
    About a week before we started watching Mr Show I'd been walking back to our apartment, completely exhausted, after spending hours in the library. While cutting through the courtyard I heard "Green Arrow" playing through the windows of the campus coffee shop.
    Despite being desperate to get home and sleep, I stopped in my tacks, stood listening in the dark, and when the song ended I made a beeline to the shop and asked the student-barista what they were playing...
    Next morning I skipped a lecture, took the bus to Jackpot Records on Hawthorne, and bought Yo La Tengo's _I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One_ (worth it).
    Over the next month I listened to that album constantly while studying/working. When I needed a break from trying to learn Russian (never happened) or writing one of whatever three essays were due that week, I'd put on Mr. Show. For a time, listening to Yo La Tengo or watching Mr Show were two things I could consistently count on if I needed to relax or lift my spirits... and I desperately needed both. February in Portland, OR was uniquely and deeply depressing: the fourth month *straight* of nothing but grey skies and shitty cold rain, punctuated by the occasional awful freezing rain/ice storm.
    Thank the gods for March, when life began to return and blossom all over the city.
    Anyway, if you read this far: sorry for rambling about some crappy time in my life that occurred 20+ years ago.
    I know a lot of people say nostalgia is overrated (and I tend to agree), but I think a little nostalgia once in a while is okay, especially when it's about things that kept you sane when life wasn't necessarily great... and this video captures that flavor of nostalgia _perfectly_ .
    Oh, and if you're in Portland right now? I'm so sorry. Remember: spring is around the corner.

    For me, this video was a watershed moment, the point where the trajectories of the two great promising forces of post-Reagan proto-Trump America (indie rock and indie comedy) intersected and exploded into a Perfect Work of Art. It should have saved us! It would have saved us if only if only

    Whatever you want from me, whatever you want I'll do
    Try to squeeze a drop of blood from a sugarcube
    Try to be more assured, try to be more right there
    Try to be less uptight, try to be more aware
    Whatever you want from me, is what I want to do for you
    Sweeter than a drop of blood from a sugarcube
    And though I like to act the part of being tough
    I crumble like a sugarcube
    for you
    Whatever you want from me,
    whatever you want I'll do
    and I will try
    whatever you want from me
    whatever you want I'll do
    try to squeeze a drop of blood
    squeeze a drop of blood from a sugarcube
