Built to Spill - What's In My Bag?

[@Mrbungleface0u818]

I met Doug at a random gas station in Santa Clara California... We were standing in line and I knew it was him.... I was like "Doug?" And he was like "yes?" Hahahah he was just as chill and kind as you can imagine. He let me on the van to say hi to the rest of the guys as I proceeded to fan boy like crazy.... I'm not usually star struck.... But for Doug. I had to thank him for all the music he has made to soundtrack my younger years and good vibes today...... Thank you again Doug!!!!!

[@bongdonkey]

That rules. And you are a Mike Patton fan. Good shit sir!

[@WaitingtoHit]

He was the first indie-rock musician I ever spoke to. One of the nicest and most humble people in music . . .

[@avabooth7122]

Doug is from my hometown, so many people have good stories about him. My aunt told me out of nowhere the other day that she played basketball with him a couple times at our ymca lol.

[@wesleyalan9179]

Yeah man, that's amazing!! To meet him at a gas station at that!! Cool! I met Doug at a concert in Atl Ga. Such a chill, cool guy, that Doug! 😂

Criminally underrated guitar wizardry. One of the best ever.

Yeah. This is worst incarnation of BTS yet. Go back 20 yrs to hear rockin BTS line ups.

[@Walrus286]

Doug is a man of few words.

[@brenttterry8259]

"I found this record, I like them."

[@samc4718]

and many riffs

[@ants_in_my_eyes_Wilson]

He really is just the nicest person. I got to meet him after a show once, and he stayed around and humored me for quite a bit. Such an awesome dude. Such fucking incredible music. He makes that guitar fucking sing!

[@mikeb6085]

​@@ants_in_my_eyes_Wilson yeah, he comes off as standoffish and annoyed, but everyone says he's nice. He sure was all business during the show, lol. He went crazy on the guitar for like 2 minutes straight in the middle of "Goin Against Your Mind", it was hype as hell.

[@ants_in_my_eyes_Wilson]

@@mikeb6085 Oh, definitely. I think he's shy. Also. That's my favorite song of theirs. He really goes fucking hard! His personality when you talk to him certainly doesn't match his stage presence. But his stage presence can certainly fucking shredd lol

[@farfetchedcat]

perfect from now on is the most underated album it totally changed my life thanks built to spill.

[@anaccount1005]

“underrated” 🤨

[@robf1557]

Wouldnt call it underrated, its pretty heavily critically acclaimed. It DOES however deserve much more attention, as it (the band itself too) is not quite as popular as it should be

[@perspicaciouscritic]

I always have a difficult time watching these episodes because almost always the artists turn me on to music that's so great that I have to frequently pause the episode so that I can search for and listen to their picks in full. So a 12 minute video, like this one, ends up taking over an hour to get through!* *This is not a complaint, by the way.

[@alberg7716]

screenshots might help you save time!!

[@dinosaursr]

I hear you. Good fun though!

[@b1gsteve251]

I’ve easily been on this episode for 3 hours. And yes I’ve screen shot every album cover

[@denverrandy7143]

Lol same

[@marcelo.n]

Same here, switching back and forth on Spotify and KZbin... 😂

[@mattimaranda9638]

Doug, your music was featured in some very legendary skateboarding videos over the past few decades. That's how I "discovered" you... When I bought Keep it like a secret, I was instantly in love. Sooo many great albums filled my childhood.

[@reggiebanks7627]

Same The Plan Got me and the dude skating to it I think was Andrew Johnson ? On Enjoi? See I can barely remember. But I know the Plan by heart

[@mattimaranda9638]

Marc Johnson in Modus Operandi, Cairo Foster in The Reason, the opening montage of i.e., there's soo many. I bought every album I saw.

[@reggiebanks7627]

I meat Cairo Foster and his goons here in Miami when I was a teen. They were filming in Brickell they gave me some boards and rolled out in a mini van. I met Kerry Getz also they were filming in civic center and I also met some guy named Danny wainwright. I miss skateboarding. It was when I felt true freedom. Before life pounded me into the ground

[@mattimaranda9638]

@@reggiebanks7627 I met Cairo and Kenny Reid in downtown NYC when I was a kid the very year The Reason came out. Blew my mind, I still have the photograph from that day. Skateboarding was magical back then.

[@lobotomyscam1051]

Best "What's in my Bag" ever! I love Melanie and Teresa, they're great live!

[@dinosaursr]

The excitement over Rush is contagious. Adorable.

[@rik2bits]

I'll never forget reading an interview with Doug, about 20 years ago: What do you listen to? "Old soul and reggae records." And Prism Bitch is great.

[@kep1599]

Hands down one of the best bands ever! Everything Built to Spill has done is absolutely amazing! So cool to see them.

[@wesleyalan9179]

Absolutely, 110%

[@ruhyen]

Love this lineup SO MUCH

[@1970Easton]

Wow!!!!!! This is the first “What’s in….” (I’ve been watching these videos for years) where I’ve never heard of the majority of the selections BUT loved every single one of ‘em. I want all of them AND I want to explore Built To Spill. Thanks Amoeba. Awesome.

[@madrx2]

Built to spill are mind numbingly amazing

[@BuiltToSpillTapes]

9:25 “Alright I’ll Take One”. God I love these three

[@daniellegg6512]

😅

[@avabooth7122]

More of y’all need to be talking about Melanie. She’s the coolest, and her band “Blood Lemon” is insane. Everyone needs to give their stuff a listen! Also Teresa is in “prism bitch” which is also an insane band.

[@goodnightmoon]

LOVE THIS BAND

[@webinfront]

Based pfp

[@Bsoftproductions]

Tennis also got that Broadcast album on their What’s in my Bag Episode (and a Built to Spill record lol)! Definitely worth listening to. I started listening to it because of that episode and it’s one of the best albums I’ve discovered this year.

[@oo0O08]

For anyone who hasn't heard them yet, definitely worth checking out all the Broadcast albums.

[@FnorDiskordRekords]

Every. Single Album. Their album with The Focus Group [Investigate Witch Cults of the Radio Age] is PURE MAGIC.

[@oo0O08]

@@FnorDiskordRekords Agree! Got it on CD.

[@chrismaclean4363]

@@FnorDiskordRekords completely agree, Adam from Swervedriver picked that one for their appearance on this which was sweet. Tender Buttons has been chosen at least a handful of times now and many of them lately for sure.

[@Andyface79]

Tender Buttons is so so good. I was fortunate to see them live a year before Trish Passed. They were amazing, it was like a wall of sound, like really loud but in a perfect way. Trish had incredible charisma she basically just stood there and danced a little but you couldn't take your eyes off her. And the rest of the band played great.

[@billclinton3010]

Just saw them last week in Boston. Great show also Prism Bitch rocked (drummer for both)

[@philipbard2333]

Was at the same show - Prism Bitch was great. Loved the energy.

[@cloudbloom]

Shoutout to Boise Idaho, probably the only recognizable band to come out of my home town

[@joannaa25]

One of the best bands ever!!

[@robf1557]

Carry the Zero is one of the best songs of the past 50 years. Unreal band

[@Emlizardo]

There's a great documentary about Fanny called "Fanny: The Right to Rock" that came out just a couple years ago.

[@MrDaigoRiki]

I like bass player because in live show she’s all the time smiling and singing. Every time she’s having fun.

[@customURLfor]

I'm Brazilian and very ashamed that I had never heard of Oruá (as was the case with most of the picks). that Scientist album is on my wishlist, this must be one of the most awesome episodes I've ever seen, I'm flabbergasted

[@roldaoaguiar763]

a Oruã inclusive era a banda de apoio do Doug antes dessa line.up do video. trampo deles é incrível, vale a pena conferir tudo que a Transfusão Noise Records faz

[@jeffdawson2786]

A lovely collection from a unique band and its many incarnations.

[@elizequestriqueen1133]

The way Doug feels about Rocksteady, I feel about Built to Spill! ❤️🎸

[@clayton7463]

I saw Oruã open for Built To Spill a few weeks ago they were great.

I remember Built To Spill! I first heard them in 2013

[@marcdenhartog9697]

Doug is lookin more fit he's sorta got some guns on him....soo many people don't know Built to Spill and every song is good..but I'm 44 so..love the diversity and I hope vinyl & even cd's continue to be appreciated 👍

[@Shoeg4zer]

I wish Brett Netson was still touring with them as a guitarist.

[@samriley8765]

It’s interesting that one of them picked a Dylan Carlson project bc when I saw Earth a few months ago, Brett Netson was playing with them!

[@gomebome]

Agreed, seeing them live as a three piece leaves a lot to be desired :/

[@supremelohim]

Seeing them in July. Can't wait.

[@Eric-mz9en]

Love the new band. Seen them a the Rev hall last year. So cool, my friend and I met the drummer before the show began and she asked us what songs we wanted to hear.. I requested "Hindsight". And they played great. Thanks, hoping to hit the show again in Nov portland.

[@Thespaceforurmom]

I saw Prism Bitch play their first show at a small house venue in ABQ and have been a follower ever since. I hit it off with Teresa especially hard when we discovered our mutual appreciation of Rush. So happy to see her out there kicking ass and representing Albuquerque.

I love ‘Built to Spill’ and I see them live every chance I get. The last time they were here in Norcal (last month), I was in Brasil. I’ll be sure to see ‘Built to Spill’ next time they are here. ‘Prism Bitch’! And no comment needed for ‘Rush’!

[@bryanpearson8865]

That was quite the joke-- I'm sure Doug had Teresa's record for a year or more, he was just plugging her band. Perla was my album of the year for 2021-- Teresa has such a monster sound! Prism Bitch are pure joy to see live!

Back again. ✌

[@ants_in_my_eyes_Wilson]

Prism Bitch was insanely good live. Got to see them in 2022 in Charlotte. Thank you, Doug for introducing me to them. Fucking love you guys. Also, just recently got to see you again in Charlotte at the The Underground. I hope that you guys had a decent time even though nobody would fucking dance. Couldn't help but imagine how god damn depressing it must be, to travel the country and go to places like Charlotte, where people insist on standing there like zombies. Like. If people want to be awkward and pretend like they aren't even there, it would be much more considerate to make space for people who actually do want to dance? And not scowl at the people who are trying to have a good time. Just a thought. Please keep coming back. I will see you every time.

[@hfield07]

prism bitch are an incredible live band! saw them first open for built to spill in 2019. i thinkthe lead singer is dating Doug now.

I think built to spill is my favorite band of all time - that being said - what's in my bag was done beat by gwar. Hands down. They weren't trying to show off or impress. Seems like that's impossible to do. It's more of the format that feels like a job interview I think.
