I want David at my funeral. Been a fan since 90's when I lived in Bremerton. Thank you for continual songwriting and performing!

I was a Xtian when I started listening around 2000 and have followed his progression of his faith right along with him so his music means more to me than just about any artist.

Dave's drumming is such an inspiration. So steady and subtle, never over playing or showing off. Just playing exactly what the song needs.
@fripperiffic2 ай бұрын
Been a fan of these guys since the early days. Ran into Dave a few times at shows, and he was always such an approachable, open book type of guy. I was a persistent Christian asking stupid questions, but he was always patient and cool. When he became an atheist, I was shocked, but always respected his candor and forthcoming nature with it. Fast forward to a few years later when I became one too, haha. So great to see Dave looking healthy, and still making cool ass music!

David is one of a kind. The storytelling, the emotive arrangement and the humor - one of my favorites of all time.

That is Dave Bazan who is the only constant member of PTL and the writer of all the lyrics that I know of. All his music is incredibly personal and clearly moves him.

@@Confoundedjoe only song I know of that’s appeared on a PTL full length that he didn’t write is “Start Without Me” on Achilles Heel. That was a TW Walsh tune.

Pedro the Lion might be my favorite band that I have discovered from KEXP being in my life. It certainly is the one that I cried the most to. I think I’ve lost about 10 gallons of saline to quietest friend and yellow bike.

Truly impressive... Thought I was listening to the album version at points. Love that the bass is done with the keyboard, she's covering two band members worth of sound. Singing and playing drums ain't easy either... he's basically flawless at both. New appreciation for this record that I already was digging!

15, went to my first like official concert and it was pedro, big fan b4 like since 2022/23 STILL DAVE WRITES AMAZINGLY AND PERFORMS WELL Also heard Dave's doing something with headphones, I'd be so down for that. Headphones was such an amazing album actually a fav cos of the writing n synths

I'm immensely grateful that David has been able to continue making and releasing music. The indie music world has no shortage of evangelical exiles and de-converts. Just like David, I wasn't allowed to listen to "secular" music as a child and adolescent. It was in listening to Christian punk, emo, and indie rock that led to an eventual appreciation of more unrestrained forms of music. And from there, I never looked back.

Note the mic stand coming up between Dave's arms and feet: The mark of a truly tasteful singing drummer, because it means that he CAN'T get his left hand over to the right side of the kit, and can't play anything more than the absolute minimum necessary - which is always the right and only way to play.
@kathykaz30272 ай бұрын
Love the story of Dave feeling good after a show and "honoring that" and still "gushing" about a favorite band. Hope he keeps this in mind when I tweet about how much I love Pedro the Lion over and over lol.
