mountain goats (with craig finn) - this year

live at bowery ballroom 3/28/11

[@DumbCommentBot316]

Hearing John Darnielle say the words "Almost Killed Me" is so amazing for a fan of both bands.

[@KealanHilley]

I love all the ecstatic looks John and Peter share.

[@neilchair]

As great as this is, here's the thing... If you watch this, you'll never be satisfied with another youtube video again.

[@gerrymcguire7521]

Never seen anyone enjoying performing so much!

[@omgpickles]

Craig looks SO stoked to be there! He always has such great energy.

[@daveatlantix]

If any song is 2020, it's this one. Thanks John and Craig.

[@JK-oy8kq]

The crossover episode did not disappoint.

[@benquinones3364]

[@Anarchivist343]

I love how they're jumping up and down like crazy teenagers.

[@caivsivlivs]

god hes having so much fun :)

[@mbrooks1488]

I honestly can't imagine how amazing it must've been to have Craig Finn come out on stage while they closed out their show. To see this live...wow.

[@scottharrington5849]

I don't know how much happier I could possibly get than that circumstance, high as hell with a beer in my hand

[@brandonh6191]

That gave me goosebumps! High energy song made even better with the addition of Craig Finn. Awesome!

[@andrewcunningham9256]

I love this video, Craig is such a nerd. SO MUCH JOY

[@clyoung71]

I still smile every time

[@mbrooks1488]

This song is my anthem.

[@punydevil]

Just glorious.

[@martinmcgann8942]

[@BinOttawa]

[@adamlawson5021]

So much joy!

[@MutatedPizzaBoi]

Still too epic for words.

[@wrigap]

Hoooooly smokes! Thank god for youtube deep dives or I may never have seen this, INCREDIBLE!

[@RandomDealer]

Look..look how life is lived. ❤️

[@dagalagas]

That rocked! The things you find on KZbin!

[@chrisurban2020]

THIS IS AWESOME

[@Antifa_Alex]

Jee. Zus. Christ. This is amazing.

[@PassiveNights]

‘It was song number 3 on John’s last CD Gonna make it through this year if it kills me And it almost killed me’ - Girls Like Status (the rest of the song is wrong about life but those lines are amazing)

[@scottharrington5849]

You're wrong about life...that song is as accurate as they come. You ever been with many girls? They go for status my friend.

[@zoroark65]

Craig's songs are never about good people

[@DerekCWallace]

I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me

[@vanancio]

Fucking beautiful!

[@mattnumber]

This never doesn't make me smile

[@blueskies]

This video almost killed me!

[@zacharynewman4852]

let's not talk about it that fondly!

[@ronparsons8786]

Yesssss

[@introducingmighty]

It almost killed me!

[@Forshbr04]

This video almost killed me.

[@Ganobrator]

it almost killed me

[@nerdstorm596]

Before it started did Craig say, “it was song number three on John’s last cd, I’m going to make it through this year, if it kills me.” If not, that’s disappointing. This is still amazing though. Wish I could have seen it live.

[@caivsivlivs]

what's awesome is in live shows since then he (sometimes?) will say "song number three on the sunset tree...) just amazing that the alternate lyric works just as well lol

[@caivsivlivs]

who is playing bass here, it's not the regular mountain goats bass player is it?

[@ohnoanotherputz]

I think it's the Hold Steady's bassist.

[@littledipper8608]

pretty sure it’s the regular dude

[@caivsivlivs]

@@ohnoanotherputz ur right idk why i thought it wasn't
