I love Modest Mouse

[@noahDnewport]

When I was a senior in high school I was going through some narcissistic abuse from my parents and just ran away from home to stay with friends as much as possible. This one guy let me live with him and we listened to music all the time. We were in his car one day and he was letting me look through his CDs. He had The Lonesome Crowded West and all of a sudden got really serious and said not to mess with that CD. He said it was too important to him and he didn’t want anything to happen to it. He said it was the best Modest Mouse record and his absolute favorite and essentially just meant the world to him. I’d never seen a person get so serious about music before, have such a reference for it. Driving around smoking cigarettes and listening to Modest Mouse took me out of my head and helped me escape all the shit I’d been going through at home. And I understand now why that record meant so much to him. Because it means a lot to me too. Thank you, David.

[@skeyelerbeurbon]

Damn son. Thats really cool to know how Modest Mouse has had such a big impact on others, especially because its had an impact on me too. Thank you for sharing this lovely story and I hope for much healing for you!

[@karmakuntz]

Seeing modest mouse live is in my bucket list Update: I'm going to finally see them 30 of march of 2023 in Mexico City!!!! Life is great.

[@thisisntnoah]

Definitely schedule seeing them a few times. They're either awesome or terrible depending on how the band feels that day.

[@hannahcroy4157]

seen them in DC for my birthday. incredible experience. Then accidentally ran into Isaac outside the venue. His lisp is so fucking adorable in person.

[@SoMicheal]

I was fortunate enough to see them when the played a string of sold out dates on the west coast following the release of Good News. It’ll be worth the wait.

[@averygartner6516]

They were fuckedddd up when I saw them this year lol

[@dixieloaf]

Maybe if you had a time machine. That ship has already sailed bro. Seen them twice. At the most they played like 2-3 older songs. It was aiiiight at best.

[@mikeygduv]

This is one of those bands that when I listen, my life plays like a movie in my mind. It's always so intense, beautiful, sad, hilarious, and existential. They've been around for it all and helped shape who I am. Not for better or worse, they just helped me feel every corner of this existence.

[@innerexit]

This was said so beautifully. Thank you for putting so perfectly into words what I have not been able to. This is so true for me too.

[@garylee3893]

I watched this on public channel (pbs) living in Medford Oregon in a transitional housing program ,in a small single room on a old school box tv in 2004, I was like , holy shit!!! I love these guys, it was one of those moments, cause I only got 3 channels and I tuned this in on rabbit ears. Its a cool memory, love ya modest mouse!!!

[@Modrunnermusic]

Seriously. 2004-2006 was amazing for music. Albums released in that time were pure alt rock

[@japan906]

Yes. Them, Snow Patrol. The Killers. Keane. The last played at Fuji Rock Festival over in Japan. Pixies & Basement Jaxx. That was a top Summer. No iPhones all over the place too. Simply peeps absolutely and beautifully absorbing the wondrous vibe shared fed by beautiful eclectic passionate souls.

[@fartlarkin2932]

Holy shit, where does time go. How does it feel like it was literally yesterday that I was a teenager listening to these amazing songs for the first time. If I find it’s hiding place will I get to go back, just for a minute?

[@iamhereblossom1588]

Same. I used to listen to this version of world at large on KZbin as it was the only clip of the live performance on KZbin back then as far as I remember.

[@appleget]

“If I find a hiding place will I get to go back” that’s beautiful. It’s crazy how much music can mean and how it can define a period of your life. Discovering Modest Mouse when I was a sophomore in high school felt like a God send. How can a man with a lisp yelling about how much the world sucks make you feel so good? The Lonesome Crowded West seriously probably changed who I am as a person. I wish I could go back and experience those feelings of first discovering them for the first time again

[@aidanellis5260]

the synchronicity between the guitarists is insane

[@pauls6448]

I was there. This was my first ACL I went to with some buddies from highschool and this was also my first time seeing MM. I have now seen them probably 6-7 times and I really love it every time

I am SOOOO happy to see this again. It was a really legendary live performance and is such a great song.

[@brandyberry14]

From ACL: "The broadcast rights expired long ago, and we don't have the rights to release the performances without the artist's permission. If Modest Mouse ever comes to us with an interest in releasing it, I'm sure we wouldn't hesitate. But we can't release something commercially (or even for free) without artist clearance." Maybe if we get enough people asking Modest Mouse to release this show they could finally release the full 16-song recording...

Agree completely. The ragged element is part of the art. It makes the insanely genius lyrics and inventive musical approach and arrangements more effective. Crafted in isolation in trailer parks and lower middle class suburbs in the uncool portion of the west coast. One of a kind.
