[@acordbrad]

Seeing Neutral Milk Hotel and Brand New in the same week this summer. Life complete.

[@Doctoresq]

[@zade9786]

Insanely luckily

[@vv.valerie08]

[@brighterwest]

jesse lacey awesome two headed boy awesome jesse lacey singing two headed boy super awesome

[@SeanTMonty]

lol chick: "I LOVE YOU" Jesse Lacey: "I appreciate you"

[@nosoup4u4593]

this cover wasnt about Jesse nailing this, it was him just having fun playing and singing as loud and high as his drunk ass possibly can lmao

[@scrublime]

"but i did already tell you i would, so thats enough, i wasnt lieing to you man." god this whole video made me smile so much :D 5 starred

[@McDaniellie]

I love this. It's brilliant.

[@OpenOurHearts]

It's not a perfect cover, but you can sense he is FEELING the song.

[@decoyflame]

I love how happy Jesse looks whilst singing this :D

[@saintbabylon7250]

Wow, came here just to see if Jesse fucked up one of my all time favorite songs, but he held that torch & made that song his own. Nice job on belting it out.

[@TiNaBLink]

OH MY GOD! how did I not know that this existed??? I love NMH. awesome. Love love love, Jesse Lacey.

[@GinaSaysHello]

Holy shit this is absolutely perfect!!

[@lesweenmachine]

Thank you Jesse

[@noiseandxxkisses]

i think i can die happy now. amazing.

[@ashylarry4213]

I love jesse's heart.

[@likearitual]

this gives me chills

[@SamiSam2627]

Please tour in the U.S this year, dammit!!

[@xia0me1mei]

jesse lacey is a god

[@brighterwest]

lol thats funny because i have been trying to remember where i had heard that... thanks

[@inbalp4]

This is amazing!

[@MaxAtkinsonGuitar]

Jesse fucking loves playing this song. I fucking love Jesse. I fucking love Neutral Milk Hotel. Truly amazing music.

[@BillyxRansom]

also, you can tell that jesse is really into folk, almost inclined to sing folk songs.. you can hear it in the natural inflections in his voice that cannot be controlled...

[@jackfranklin3104]

Why does everyone shout random tracks and things to do with Brand New while he trys to talk? I dont understand...

[@krosakrosa1]

@SeanTMonty she said "i appreciate you" also. she was making a dopey reference to Mixtape

[@Seahorste]

If I were in that crowd the second he said "Neutral Milk Hotel" would have shat my pants.

[@graceevolved]

think i cried a lil bit... at the end.

[@averagegatsby]

I'd buy an album of Jesse Lacey locked in a closet farting into a coffee can... Does that make me weird?

[@deatheater459]

yes. it does.

[@smcs0franky0m]

deatheater459 you're in the minority.

[@deatheater459]

Francisco Meneses I don't talk to strangers.

[@smcs0franky0m]

deatheater459 It's okay, I'm a mudblood anyways.

[@findanewgoddd]

no dude. we all experiment.

[@1nkyblast]

"PLAY THIS" "PLAY THAT" "... maybe I shouldn't have said it was 'cool' to yell out songs"

[@Treesandink]

he did a pretty good job here! damnnn

[@robcampbell9292]

Jesse - "Excuse me for a sec." Random guy - "YES SIR!!!!!!" That would be me. I'm pretty sure if I ever met Jesse I would treat him like a god.

[@pedrohenriqueteixeiraanjo8789]

Are you sure?

[@sane182]

Awesome Squared!

[@dbb008]

Song starts at 2:30

[@star0dreamer]

are you serious. Jesse is amazing at covers, anyone who doesn't agree can get out.

[@julianemarie7890]

i didnt think the crowd was annoying, i think it makes a concert more fun when the fans are interacting..and plus jesse didnt mind it!

[@nevin540]

Goddamn this is powerful

[@valiwaggg]

I want to marry Jesse Laceyyyyyyy

[@misssomething]

He yelled "Bukowski" after Jesse mentioned Modest Mouse, not NMH. Bukowski is a MM song.

[@xXnewbiexninjaXx]

Agreed, no other band plays as many good covers or does as many acoustic sets as BN or even Jesse Lacey on his own. BN can put on an amazing acoustic set.

[@Flea817]

I was probably high when I wrote that. I am quite familiar with both Modest Mouse and Bukowski. I've owned and listened to every Modest Mouse album more than a few times.

[@misssomething]

@johnmorisi8 On April 26, Lacey announced at their Baltimore show that they have been writing material but have had difficulties as they are "tired of bumming you guys out. We’re trying to write something happy."

[@27coffeemonsters]

they just toured with modest mouse!!! ahhhhh. funny how that worked out

[@scrublime]

hes jesse fucking lacey, he'll do as he pleases

[@KrillSpammer]

God, Neutral Milk Hotel Covers are basically IMPOSSIBLE. I liked this, "mistakes" and all. I think Jeff would appreciate the fact that A) he's even trying it and B) he's so inspired by his music. But I don't want to assume anything.

[@johnmorisi8]

@rissa8592 i was thinking that today. but sadly, i think they will... all signs point to that.

[@NACC09]

@dogout43 He yelled "Bukowski." Its a Modest Mouse song.

[@nr2237]

I keep trying to learn this song but I cant get the strumming right (pathetic right?) but anyway this song is awesome

[@TheUltimatePandaman]

Nicolas Robinson did you ever get it right? Lol

[@BillyxRansom]

these lyrics seem to be perfectly fitted to jeff mangum's voice, and you can tell because when jesse sings the lyrics "i am listening to hear where you are" you can hear him almost trying to emulate jeff's vocal stylings there. it's really interesting...

[@alexohso1337]

it's crazy awesome actually. /fanboy

[@Knightimehero]

@NACC09 Also a poet, Charles Bukowski.

[@fourstring182]

He's making love to that microphone.

[@semperfidelis3100]

You're not familiar with "covers" are you?

[@bloodygums]

he covers so many great bands lol

[@Brixtones]

Tell me about it. 1:45 reaction to finding out it's a NMH song. smh...

[@brok3nboy]

8 people have no idea what music is, and are scared of it.

[@rissa8592]

so...i kind of cried...just a little....i hope brand new isn't joining neutral milk hotel in their musical limbo of silence

[@thychaos]

@gutstotake lol doubt those kinds of people would be at this kind of show.

[@supportyourlocallurk]

When I imagine a better life for myself this is what it would be like. Jesse Lacey singing Jeff Magnum to me. Just me. Cuz I put a force field bubble between us and that fool crowd of Hollywood kooks.

[@LittletonNewHampshire]

2:59 for the good stuff. you don't want to listen to this crowd, believe me.

[@rakusfrakus]

camera obnoxious.

[@skrotomon]

@dishler712 LOL

[@rompo420247]

sorry, i'm just not into it. i appreciate the effort on this dudes part but it just isn't that...good.

[@lalalaurenWHAT]

this doesn't sound too great..... and these are two of my favorite bands.

[@paranoid711]

Mangum > Lacey, Fact.
