Jandek @ Rudyard's

[@zopwx2]

People dancing and making out @ a jandek show? This is the greatest video ever

[@audiojihad]

couple times a year i type "funky jandek" into google and watch this video all the way through

[@audiojihad]

i'm back watching funky jandek

[@wildcombinationrecordings9380]

Same

[@civilwar9637]

Jandek plays the Seinfeld theme

[@nevermattered24]

For everybody's information, this was the encore. Yes, believe it or not, an encore at a Jandek show. It was an amazing thing to behold. Extremely high energy and the Corwood Rep. was obviously having a blast. He moved around a lot and smiled a lot. I can't wait for the cd release of this. It was truly a milestone in Corwoodian history. I'll never forget it.

[@loveboat1]

okay Jandek

[@danpan6239]

Jandek raps about not having a shirt over the Seinfeld theme featuring the guitar playing of Les Rallizes Denudes

[@whitemonster009]

I am a huge fan of Jandek and have been for a number of years now. I've even had the pleasure of seeing the Rep live a few times. But this performance is just plain fucking awesome! I wish I could have been there.

[@shapecatfilms7592]

Every Jandek live video I see couldn't be more different.

[@Therion-z2b]

Wow, the Rep has done it again! Best song I've ever heard!! I came!

[@edcerc]

jandek is really coming out of his shell lol

[@SirRunk666]

The only way this could have possibly been any cooler, would have been if THIS was Jandek's first show, not the Glasgow gig. That would have fucked people up for sure,

[@guilhermebaldin]

truly a man that lives and breathes music, always looking for something fresh. also, very nice to see him get applauded, i mean, for someone who's been doing this for so long without an actual audience, it must mean a lot to him, the recognition. he looks so thrilled!

[@00bilz]

This version of the band actually reminds me of Minutemen a little bit.

[@clintwilson6380]

Yeah it does

[@deathmetaldouglas69]

Minutemen's Mike Watt has a video performing with Jandek. It's just as cringe bad as this.

[@TheXAvantGarde]

how is this horrible? this is fucking awesome

[@theunrealtimemm]

Janky smiling, and ALMOST acknowledging the audience. :)

[@diskochimp]

That shot of the crowd is priceless!

[@elektricskull]

the noisy vampire sets his phaser gun on funk

[@marcuslobb]

This is out of this world...but some how it makes sense that this is what he would do for his first ever home town show. The fact that Jandek actually seems into it, makes him all the more weird....no one is more fascinating.

[@pandalilpig]

probably the best video on youtube.

[@wheelchairepidemic]

This is the only Jandek material I can really get into

[@diskochimp]

What a gent!

[@Timmybear]

@palmerstonian - I always find it funny when people say Jandek 'can't play'. First of all, by virtue of the fact that he produces noises, he obviously is physically capable; also, I hear repeated riffs in his pieces, and I can whistle along with many of his tracks (not so much READY FOR THE HOUSE, but later stuff).

[@jfrey1]

When listening to Jandek records, I always thought what was lacking was some funk beats and slap bass.

[@sydbarrett5]

Jandek Comes Alive

[@ianwilmoth]

imagine showing up expecting a jandek concert and getting this... wtf?!

[@EarlyLAPunk]

Jandek back to his roots here, obviously.

[@mahargllednif2250]

this is the greatest video ive ever seen

[@kylebentley7512]

Jandek Dance Party

[@GreenManalishiUSA]

wow, a jandek song that you can groove to. what is this world coming to.

[@AlexSerenylan]

Smiling? in MY Jandek live performance?

[@pmd44]

surreal!

[@jean-mariemachiels5358]

They should've put a Jandek record in that Voyager back then ...

[@diskochimp]

Fucking HILARIOUS! Love it when the guitar finally kicks in...!

[@ICAndrei]

never expected that. nice stuff.

[@saintcornelius511]

This brings joy to my life!

[@iamghosttrain]

i hope he will release it and call it "ready for the funk". (no, seriously, slap? bald bassist? flanger on the guitar? JANDEK? what the hell? i'm confused.)

[@moviej2k]

He just released this set on Corwood! corwoodindustries.com/product/0839/

[@paintingtasters]

Jandek is as Jandek does! Amazing to see this guy actually out performing...

[@DarkeningSkies1]

Looked like ol' Jandek was going to have a good time after the show there as well...

[@InfiniteRhombus]

from 2:19 on they become a primus cover band

[@indierokken]

I forget how long ago this was… then I see flip phones 😂

[@christianlesurfmusic]

1:35 Just wow!

[@Timmybear]

@Abraxas80 - nothing he's ever performed live has been on a studio record. I do sometimes wish he'd make a non-solo record again (some of his earlier stuff has a 'band').

[@lesscunning9651]

this kind of reminds me of Patrice Rushen's "Forget Me Nots"

[@mradamcooley]

YES!

[@CesarClouds]

0:42 looks like a younger version of Jandek.

[@SlowerRiot]

Hank from Breaking Bad on bass! LOVE IT!!!! (this is one of Jandeks bests songs btw!!!)

[@therealjeff8086]

Wow, you really DON'T see color, do you.

[@cvp1969]

Did he nab the guys who play at his church for this?

[@diskochimp]

Cvp1969 Hope so.

[@CesarClouds]

Lol

[@jonnyfavors7585]

That bassist carried this shit!!

[@Timmybear]

Is there one definition of music?

[@lordZzed]

@posthumanhero this is what happened to me... it was absolutely fantastic, and i'm still loving it.

[@ScottyCaster]

i raced to get to jandek's 1st ever hometown show after work only to show up right when everything was over. so weird to have a performance @ 3 pm on a sunday. should have just called in that day.

[@XX-jf8og]

shoegaze funk? he invented something new, again.

[@wordvert7374]

He's not afraid to go there..

[@XX-jf8og]

Jandek in Different Project.

[@guilhermebaldin]

truly this man lives and breathes music. always looking for something new. funk, guitar noise (which jandek basically invented) and his unique vocals. hell of a mix.

[@Ocelot1962]

She's a pretty thing whoever she is.

[@Uniblab62]

@shuckslbj I would really like to know the answers to both of your great questions here!

[@nnickdl]

Jandek… with a bar band???

[@JohnnyRichard]

Jammin' Jandek

If you close you eyes, you'd swear it was the Peppers.

[@bennievargas2673]

lurch321 way better

[@pagapollo5601]

yeah, add some Frusciante and it's perfect

[@SirRunk666]

That's fucking crazy!

[@sidevans1]

Seinfeld: LIVE

[@blackmore4]

If the rhythm section isn't far out enough, Jandek's younger self is in the front row... watching his older self on stage. Is it okay if I'm a bit frightened?

[@bl4zn4zn]

hahahahaha fucking amazing. Jandek 4 life. Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[@suncity22001]

is this what hauntology is ?

[@thereagauze]

he should recruit Rusted Shut as his backing band.

[@horsedoctorman]

hahaha oh wow

[@robinstigator]

insanity!

[@InfiniteRhombus]

fuck this is amazing

[@shnootch]

well he seems to be riding it

[@metalkoffe]

Jamdek! =D

[@sarcofaygo6218]

11/10

[@TaylorConrad8098]

primus meets david bryne meets unlikely career move

[@hiicantthinkofaname]

Jandek has the weirdest live videos.

[@IIllytch321nonadinfinitum]

Heh, I'm a neophyte Jandek fan, but I do not understand this. It looked as though he had some fun, though, so that's all good in my book.

[@Stoner075C]

Well, Jadek has always had a certain frightening effect on me, It is part of the package I guess, : ).

[@diskochimp]

@jmasters1977 Why, exactly?

[@brownbess]

Brilliant to see him in action with such an inappropriate-seeming band.

[@truethought62]

Who cares--Keith Vivens is one awesome bad ass bass master!

[@JWF5186]

He's pretty damn spry for 63.

[@akf2000]

at least the band are colour coordinated if nothing else.

[@AmirAharoni]

Does he do that a lot?

[@IHeartNoise]

No, its a rare funk jam

[@diskochimp]

@IcedPriestSlayer "I'm your biggest fan", no doubt.

[@StadiumHot]

LMAO

[@nancykitten]

"I'm yr biggest fan"

[@juliamothbat]

THE FUCK?

[@Chris-qo4rt]

Seindek

[@excepter]

You painted your teeth!

[@diskochimp]

@gauchebag That's 2 things you & Jandek have in common then.

[@stevetraut]

OMMMMMMM INDEED ALEX. JANDEK 666.

[@RJMyato]

no its me

[@FlashYes1]

Wished he'd have remained obscure and hidden because that mystique was compelling, but can't fault him for wanting to emerge.

[@casamagneticaviva]

sombody needs to tell that guy there's something new out called "food"....

[@thegmanyo]

For a second, I thought Jandek might actually be able to play the guitar. And then around 1:35 I realized that he wasn't actually playing anything up until then.

[@icykusum]

bir yerden sonra ritme göre kafa sallamam korkutucu sanırım

[@themanmaydie]

You cannot beat that clanky hobnail janky...

[@Timmybear]

ooooh, pretty ginger at 1:01-1:10. Shame he's kissing on a girl. ;)

[@xstuartx]

It would have been better if it was P-funked out.

[@Luke.hello.]

A generic, melodically correct funk duo backing jandek? A complete contrast to his sloppy, depressive, discordant strumming? Smart move, sir. Smart move.

[@IHeartNoise]

Jandek going for that Billboard gold

[@bennievargas2673]

Generic In the literal sense. They were killing it

[@diskochimp]

@idiotequeiceage Basically I see your post as a waste of time.

[@Questpeace]

Horridly awesome?

[@ImaginalComponent]

Prince Harry front and center
