Elliott Smith live at Howlin' Wolf 2000-10-20 (Full Show)

[@nicholasgrant7247]

Imagine if you went there just expecting to see Elliott acoustically and then this happened, bloody hell. Wish I wasn't a kid when all this was happening.

[@javierdelgado4695]

Oh man, I grew up in Portland and was in high school when this concert took place. I literally lived in close proximity to him and never got to see him. I second your sentiment.

[@inshambles2]

HEY! At least you were even born while it was happening… I was born 2 years after he died.🥲

[@muuuzaklistener]

[@sebastianschultz3107]

this version of twilight just gave me chills...

Thanky schmanky!

[@meredithlyons3746]

I have an autographed set list from this show and was so happy to confirm that this was, in fact, the show by matching up the order of these titles.

[@cheemsrei]

@@meredithlyons3746any chance you’d be willing to share a picture of it? that’s an incredible piece to have.

[@zacharyvito662]

elliott in top form

[@eis904]

Are you joking? He was severely addicted during this time and looked worse than ever. But hey the music is good. 😌

[@opheliajade1986]

@@eis904 Not at this point yet....it was after the tour.

[@chrissteiger4199]

Most epic concert ever, epic set list. Literally mind blowing

[@kitpalmer1583]

Never heard this full band version of Needle in the Hay before, it sounds banging

[@opheliajade1986]

I know right? Fucking killer electric and live with this band! This version rocks!

[@muuuzaklistener]

man, he had nothing but fucking HITS. like bro, fucking banger and banger. nothing less. how i wish he was still here. and how i wish there was a good quality bootleg album of live rips like these.

[@wakeddownalameda7579]

See him live just before this show at the boston avalon. The full band was incredible. Elliott was full on. Wish he was still here

[@instanceTu]

God, what a great band he had with him. They shred the ever living fuck out of L.A. A complete and utter joy to watch

[@meredithlyons3746]

Thanks for this. I was there. In fact, I think I can see the back of my head in the front row in some shots. So glad I found this.

[@meredithlyons3746]

@@niallmcmahon8571 I still have the autographed set list. So glad I worked up the courage to ask him to sign it.

[@Cassyels]

This is purely magic ! What a great performance ! This twilight in final 😳 And the public... WOAW they are ON FIRE ! Thx a lot for upload

[@stevenmarr2575]

who would downvote this set!

[@AyakiKay-kj8gm]

Thank you so much 💓

[@parto18]

Just found this video. Thank you so much for posting! I saw him a week later at the 9:30 Club in DC. My memory for the last 20 years was of being disappointed w. the concert because I really wanted an acoustic performance. I was So Very Wrong. This concert is Amazing! Wish I realized how wonderful it was back then instead of so much later. Wow!

[@johnbultman7051]

I think it was in 96' or 97' I went to see Sebadoh at the howling wolf. I got there early as I liked to hear the sound check. I sat at the bar, Elliott came out. We talked. I noticed his Mighty Mouse tattoo, asked him what he thought about Texas (noticed his other tattoo)...., the bartender served us spaghetti and we ate together and I thought he was just some random nice but haggard N.O. dude. I left and then came back in time to see the opener which holy crap! was Elliott who then proceeded to blow me away. I/we had never heard of him. All of Sebadoh (Jason, Lou, Eric ) stood next to me and watched in awe while the talkers talked behind us he played alone on a chair. twas a beautiful night. I had been studying classical guitar and voice at this time for 3 years so to witness him totally usurp classically "good" voice and guitar was awesome. thanks for posting this.

[@jalk3]

Thank you for uploading this. I find it quite strange how Elliott would close some of his sets with songs which had no official release at the time 'Twilight' here and 'Flowers For Charlie' on a couple of other sets. Having heard either of them at the show at the time would have left me desperate to hear them again. I am still hoping a studio version of the latter will be unearthed one day.

[@charlessaini9442]

that last bit showing the "dynamics" of his sound on the acoustic guitar strings, very cool for me now

[@PhantasmSt]

this is as epic as when Dylan went electric

[@giordanagreotti4328]

Great gig, great Elliott and great the band... wish you were here again, my idol... thank you for posting this stunning live gig...

[@thezeek2745]

wish i would have seen one these electric shows. thanks so much for uploading.

I was there...so greatful I got to see him live. tks for the upload.

Lighting up a cigarette, how legendary.

[@AllTheTimeWasted]

Phenomenal!

[@MakeAmericaLiftAgain]

Visited New Orleans and walked past this place (Howlin’ Wolf) where he performed. Was cool to see, although it was closed down lol.

[@nuncotics791]

The best intro banter between audience lol some girl was really trying to mac

[@annasai8730]

めっちゃカッコイイやん‼️

[@killedbykato]

I was 2 days old when this concert happened

[@andrewmello367]

He tunes her guitar at the end.

[@jenniferransonet6396]

That was my guitar that he signed

[@cian9461]

David Bowie at the start ⭐

[@mjb9ab]

How come he never played Happiness on the Either Or Tour??

[@sebastianschultz3107]

Lmao at the one person that cheers at division day

[@malekaiwebos3045]

Best crowd u could ask for

[@chrissteiger4199]

I love how it zooms in on the drummer during the end of everything means nothing to me.

[@charlessaini9442]

wow!! so far truly a shit hot show fo sho'! super awesome upload

[@Lozza144]

Is there a better quality version of this

[@ricardoadao3002]

Only 8 comments? he's a fucking forgotten genius!

it doesn't matter really.those that love his music,love it deep.

[@ricardoadao3002]

O "problema" é que são poucos demais ...olhe as visualizações...

[@ricardoadao3002]

ok

[@dithirambos]

@@ricardoadao3002 Isso também me incomoda que tão poucos amem a música de E.S., ele não tem a atenção que merece, mas, ao mesmo tempo é como falaram acima, nós cuidaremos do legado dele.

[@giordanagreotti4328]

No, never forgotten that genius...

[@fransschreuders8488]

They're both Hummingbirds so I thought he borrowed that girl's guitar but his is a Gibson and her's is an Epiphone and besides that's a George Harrison story ha ha.

[@oranjjjggg]

i like the backstage part

[@jenniferransonet6396]

I'm the girl who had my guitar signed by him at the end!
