If you never heard Dave play live you never lived

[@bishlap]

Dave (Phil and Blasters) is an American Treasure.

[@hughbarlow9736]

Who needs a movie when you can listen to a Dave Alvin song? Dave goes straight to the heart.

[@sawbilly2]

This band cooks! Great song! On it ,On it!

[@scottleonard9599]

Why this guy and his band are not in the Rock HOF is beyond me. Hope I can see him live one day.

[@alberttiii]

This song and peformance gives me so much joy and tears at the same time. Beautiful.

[@edwardhenry3158]

23 years ago, I was 20. I’d just lost the battle for my brother to the institution of the state psych hospital. I had cancer and could not save him. I was newly and quickly married to a man 26 years my senior and his 8 year old daughter without her Mom. I thought I could help. I could barley stand the pain in my body, but thought I’d try the best I could to do with her what hadn’t been done for me. Seemed the best choice for the time I had. I was still durable. I had Dylan, The Doors, Simon and Garfunkel, Ray Charles, Howlin Wolf, Jimmy Reed, Elmore James, Lightning Hopkins, and a radio station called KPIG with some old time clever DJs. Ramblin Roar was hosting a set. It was time for me to do my domestic duties of house cleaning. I was alone. I couldn’t smile for myself. All I could do was try to feel connected to a young world I didn’t understand. I was scrubbing the toilet when from the speaker I heard something that stunned me. I felt it in my veins, beyond the cancer. Better than anything I’d ever known. This music wasn’t rock n roll it wasn’t folk it wasn’t the Blues. It was like classical on fire in the soil of the land and my guts. Then Dave’s voice came through like roots for the spaces between. I stopped what I was doing and layed down on the cold hard clay floor. The song went on and the rendition was LIVE. In those 10 minutes I do believe my life was saved. I went straight down to the record store on Pacific St in Santa Cruz and bought every Dave Alvin record they sold. Thank you for sharing yourself. I am determined to carry on and share the meaning of the music, loud and light or soft and heavy. I’ll be there, reaching out to the kid younger than me. And that’s how we all keep on rolling. Thanks for sharing, Dave and Family.

[@FreddyA1964]

My all time favorite artist, got to hang out with him in Chicago, just an incredible guy! A modern day legend! #Freddysparascope

[@Dreamster399]

Dave Alvin, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, people.

[@duaneulman9915]

Thank you

[@nancydavis6750]

Wish I'd been there to experience the music and atmostphere on the night

[@47Viggen]

Dam Lisa can play. Great drumming

[@edwardhenry3158]

Oh my God, I’m telling all y’all out there. If you’ve never seen this man live you don’t know what you’re missing. Any musicians he gets playing with him every time it’s just phenomenal. Never does a version of this song the same way ever I forget the girls name who is playing the drums but let me tell you something, she is doing more with less than all these rock ‘n’ roll eagle maniac drummers who have a ton of Tom’s symbols double base all that BS and I am a bass player and what this lady was laying down as a groove and just killing it blew me out of my chair if anybody remembers her nameplease let me know but Dave Alvin is one bad mofo very underrated but if you ever get a chance to see him live, you will not be disappointed

[@hachibahn8844]

[@michaelhoffman5486]

[@kcinks]

I got a free recording of a live show in Denver, it was on internet archive. It's a little hard to navigate but there are some great live shows there...not an ad, just fact. He did Wanda and Dwayne on the same show.....lots of great tunes on there, at The Soiled Dove I think.

[@alberttiii]

This is my Free Bird.

[@akersk42]

[@tarquinbullocks1703]

Have to say I love a great lady drummer. (Hope that isn't sexist). Lisa is superb.

[@olivei2484]

[@ruralangwin]

Can I love Chris Miller more than Dave Alvin? I'm smitten like a girl.

[@Indiocean]

[@tombeverly6508]

A dumbass comment like that means you are disqualified from having an opinion on anything to do with music.
