Bittersweet memories, 10 years ago....

[@miked9868]

This is about as clean as music can get

[@KyleStoughton]

I just want to point out how great of a guitarist Sean Watkins is...

[@linkfamilymusic]

First off, the music is perfect. 👌🏼 Second, the "back drop" is one of my favorites ever. 😉

[@Prior2Popular]

Link Union looks like Guitar Center lol

[@jpinhoaraujo]

This is pure talent, the instruments are the tool to take it to the next level. It's beautifull!

[@pinkisforpimps]

the audio quality from this song is amazing.

[@TheIcanntspel]

That's it, I'm buying both of their albums....

[@ladyfGye]

This is, what it is. Music! I found this video and love it!

[@GuitarGeek693]

I was at the show they played right after this! They are fantastic live.

[@IpCrackle]

love this stuff... i remember when the record first came out, i wasn't fully into it, but now i've given it another try and it's beautiful

[@linkfamilymusic]

I'd forgotten about this band! Now I need to go back and listen to the CDs of theirs!

[@Prior2Popular]

Palestrina's Masses literally same! I think you have to listen to it when you're really in the mood to really listen to a whole album and have patience. Otherwise you won't get it

[@backspage]

it was a long time ago that I put a video to my favourites that time is over with this video....

[@saraphinavictoria]

Why am I just now hearing this?

[@Prior2Popular]

THAT SOUND. THAT TONE. THAT... ALL OF IT!

[@timbonim296]

I periodically come back here just to listen to Aaron Redfield on drums

[@josemo1]

Thanks so much for this gift

[@yearofrolling]

That old gear is sounding pretty good.

[@dianaleal4574]

Nov 2022! and still love it ♥

[@KeithusTFS]

Chicago Music Exchange should make a cd/dvd of all the band they have play there. I'd buy the crap out of that.

[@heinrichmack]

Hi Chris, awesome live music film, is this shot with Nikon D800? is it out of the camera picture style presets? or a little grading in post? thanks.

[@coralreef4184]

that's what i thought too!

[@streetfighterGeeK]

[@peeblesj1131]

Shure SM7B's, I believe.

[@anayaridmoura682]

I try so hard, I try so hard...

[@KLEMZYflirt]

lol guys the singer originates from ''swichfoot''.... he is just in more bands... which is awesome..

[@jesseday7328]

Does anybody know the cords that Jon is playing or what his guitar is tuned to? I need to know!

[@216trixie]

I can't wait for retro to pass.

[@TheIcanntspel]

216trixie it's not going to.

[@rockcrab0907]

今天的blue monday就靠他惹

[@QuantumCavern]

What are these vocal mics that they're using?

[@TheIcanntspel]

Hey I finally found someone who thinks Jon looks like Kurt cobain

[@marcgabrielnicodemus3257]

Come on, put Jon's name on the Walk of Fame!

[@lilwillie5598]

@ Felix Hayes I did a painting of the singer for my art project and my teacher asked if it was Kurt Cobain hahaha

[@brandonapaza134]

what song is?

[@lptomtom]

The bass player looks ill at ease...good song!

[@Hitmankaa]

It sounds similar at some point as Маша и медведи-Любочка watch?v=aAXQsnM8i6Y

[@dannellmoffett8291]

i think thats just the hair, I don't see cobain at all. lol but then ive been looking at jon's face since he was a clean shaven youth, so maybe thats the difference! lol

[@TheIcanntspel]

Other than me..

[@robertshelton2135]

love this band but the bassist hipster fail
