I'm amazed Isaac can function in normal society with his brain full of all his awesome lyrics.

[@MultiUnreal]

I actually don't think he can. People have been saying he's crazy for years (Real, genuine crazy, not just wild party crazy). He's said himself he's lucky Modest Mouse found success because otherwise he's be homeless or something.

This song makes me genuinely happy.

"Fire It Up" Etcetera-nough [x8] Fire it up, fire it up When we finally turn it over Make a B-line towards the border Have a drink, you've had enough Fire it up, fire it up If you need some conversation Bring a magazine to read around Our broke down transportation Fire it up Etcetera-nough [x3] Fire it up, fire it up When we find the perfect water We'll hang out on the shore Just long enough to leave our clothes there Fine enough, fine enough Oh we ate all of the oranges Off the navels of our lovers Grabbed a book and read the cover It honestly was beautifully done Like trying to hide the daylight from the sun Even if we had been sure enough it's true we really didn't know Even if we knew which way to head but still we probably wouldn't go Fire it up, fire it up We pushed off we're rolling boulders Crashing down the mirrored stairways Two of life's best mine canaries Fire it up, fire it up When we fix the carburetor Then we'll push off once again In an hour or so later It honestly was beautifully bold Like trying to save an ice cube from the cold Even if we had been sure enough it's true we really didn't know Even if we knew which way to head but still we probably wouldn't go Well, we always, well, we always Had it all, had it all Well, we always, well, we always Had it all, had it all Well, we always, well, we always Had it all

[@willtheguitarman9000]

They only get better with time

[@Aepotheosis]

Such a calm audience

[@draver21]

If you guys are still wondering about the whole guitar thing, I'm about 99% it is a Koll Spectro Glide. I've seen him live probably 20 times now, and anytime he brought out a twelve string guitar it was a Koll. I only say 99% because the past few years I haven't paid as much attention. Brock can make any rig his bitch, so I didn't find it very important what guitar he was using after a while.

Lets focus the camera on the burning cigarette

Epiphone makes some good guitars. Their higher end stuff is just as good as a lot of stuff made by Gibson... which is the company owns Epiphone.

[@lookingatcrap]

@kadidain1 They are used by a lot of people they are cheaper then the gibson so if it gets damaged not a big deal good touring guitar. I had a few now i have guitars that if the were broken or someone lifted it i would cry and never afford a new one don't worry about all the people talking shit

[@KinchMTG]

Does the crowd even understand English? This was in the Netherlands, so I don't know.

Hey its not the guitar its the Manic Depressive psychos that pick them up. Isaac, Kurt, Jimi Hendrix, myself.

[@supdenfoosukka]

He usually rocks a PRS.

[@desmondteague2441]

False it's a Wicks guitar!

[@wezzlyn]

Isaac needs to quit smoking. His voice is getting a lot raspier.

[@MultiUnreal]

Hey, it's been five years since your comment, and it seems like his voice has gotten even raspier.

[@FEffects]

@kadidain1 How ignorant. I good guitar is a good guitar regardless of price.
