Genesis 2:6 "On the 8th day God created all musical instruments, amplifiers, and electricity outlets, and a band called Big Head Todd & the Monsters and He placed all of this in the Garden"

[@TimH-m8z]

I'm only 60 but I was lucky to see these guys in the dive bar days in fla. Early 90s . My wife and I bought them a round , rolled em a fatty and danced all night. Best times of my life. They have been the soundtrack to many gatherings and good times.

[@davidr8750]

Lucky SOB. Lol. Cool

[@ronhorne9891]

I would have loved to see them live. And mini bottles and joints of course 😂

[@DenubianSD]

No computer, no auto-tune. Real music. What a concept.

Amen, Brother Thomas. Who would has tunk it.

I'm 56 and didn't find them until a couple of years ago.

Back in the 90's, majority of bands were whiny and complaining about everything. This band stood alone

[@bonifaciocoronado6973]

When I met my wife back in 2003, we were checking out each other's CD collections and discovered that we both had Big Head Todd & The Monsters. We've always said that we wanted to see them play live. Well, 21 years later, we finally saw them last weekend at House of Blues in Anaheim. It was a great show. Next time, we're going to invite some friends.

[@davidg.9932]

I was blessed enough to meet Todd Park Mohr at The Blue Note Waikiki in 2020, And I can tell you that he is as gentle in his personality as he is in his singing style.. Sweet and calm.. He was so gracious and polite. Not a rock star but a Human star.. Thanks Todd.. For giving me life long memories..

[@davidrice3337]

sounds like a cool dude

[@Mindcrime67]

I went to college with Todd and we took italian class together. Todd is a super nice guy and he was pretty good at italian.

[@cconnors47]

All great to hear because that is exactly his vibe!!!

I know it's 10 years too late to be commenting on this video, but aren't Big Head Todd and the Monsters so great? And isn't Red Rocks about the best place ever to see a show?!?!

[@stevenmyers1090]

Never too late brother. 2024 now still jamming

[@tghiker]

Went to see these dudes in Iowa City many years ago. Bouncer asked Todd for his ID to get in the section of the bar with the stage. Todd said he was in the band. The bouncer didn't believe him. I was behind Todd and stepped up to tell the bouncer that this guy was the star of the band. The bouncer let him in. Todd thanked me. I told him my name was Todd also. We had a right on moment and they kicked ass that night. Good dudes.

My kind of band. Guitar, Bass, Hammond B3, and a drum kit w/ a Marshall stack. Also, these guys kill.

"And l love her yet ..though she has done me wrong...and i'd bring her back though she has been long gone...."

[@TheRealForrestGeorge]

There's a lot of snow in spring and I can't remember The last time that I've seen her The highway is still cold and wet and I can't forget The way I had to leave her And every passing day, she flickers and she fades Is someone to catch her when she falls from the heavens? And I'll love her yet, though she has done me wrong And I'll bring her back, though she has been long gone And I'll always be her Broken hearted savior And every heavy night Takes out the little life that's left within her Every man she gives her love, he takes it And leaves her with a dinner Our love was once a flame, now I'm just a forgotten name Am I the only one to blame for ever loving her? And I'll love her yet, though she has done me wrong And I'll bring her back, though she has been long gone And I'll always be her Broken hearted savior

Just turned 20 and discovered y’all’s music. I’m absolutely floored with how good this band is! My dad listened to “Bittersweet” pretty often on cat rides, but I had no clue other than that. The passion that goes into these performances is absolutely awesome to me. The lyrics are top notch and the skill is nearly unparalleled. Anyways, y’all have gained a fan for sure. I’m looking forward to going to one of y’all’s concerts next year if I can, hopefully when I’m 21 and can enjoy a good drink too.
