02:55 "Don't interrupt. You know the Grackles are my friends." Funny downtown Austin reference.

[@Ghoopty]

Obviously a great tune, but for me it’s missing the explosive drumming from the Mag Earwig version....

[@Kyle_etc]

Agreed, as soon as I heard it I thought to myself “man that drummer blows”

[@allenbraun7300]

Did doug play the security gaurd in popular video???

[@ekimklaw]

I didn't know Craig Finn played the drums..

[@anam3nyc]

ekimklaw That's George Duron.

[@ekimklaw]

Next thing you know you'll tell me that the guy on second guitar isn't Chris Connelly from ESPN/MTV.

[@MrDanty64]

Am not the biggest fan of their current drummer but if this is one that he was in on from the start I can give him props. Frankly during shows he ruins the real GBV vibe from all the way back that made them have a name for themselves

[@deengew]

Hey DOUG! Say that shit not on guitar see what happens! Comin for you, Doug!

[@punksofnewengland]

What did he say?
