Modest Mouse on David Letterman Live

[@sdc5133]

it's actually Andy Macleod from Love as Laughter. Brandon Angle did play bass for LaL for a few years before this airing so the mistake was easy to make.

[@basti_marr]

My ex girlfriend showed me this song one day at the campus, I listened to it and loved the guitar, looked for the band at home and discovered it was played by Johnny Marr and as a Smiths fan I was utterly captivaded. Fernanda, if you ever read this, this is the only good thing you did for me you piece of crap

[@fenomozo9108]

looool what a story, Basty

[@Ӆ2Ӆ]

Basty Elwood Cobain Wow lolz

[@RaphaFalc]

Hahahahahahahah That's the best thing i've ever read on youtube. THANK YOU!

[@jaolin6042]

The realtionship melted but you still have "Dashboard".

[@jamesfoley1150]

Now THATS a fucking comment! Bravo

[@edjones7386]

oh hey Johnny Marr, didn't see you there...

[@Majora99]

Johnny Marr is one of the most under-appreciated guitarists. He writes the most amazing riffs!

[@CamelOnDirtBike]

what? he is extremely appreciated in the whole indie-forum...

[@tinawalton7703]

Sean Johnson -- Nah, no worries. Johnny Marr is God. Anybody who knows anything knows him.

[@estebandido4988]

No, he Is not under-appreciated.

[@babypumpkins6477]

Nah the smiths are seen as the all time legends of 80s alternative next to the cure and joy division i wouldn’t call them under appreciated

[@darrylparkinson1991]

I have always said to everyone Johnny Marr is the riff master. 'This Charming Man', genius

[@ks9610]

I love how Johnny Marr was more front & center than anyone else, w the most space! Respect to a Legend!! Love him!

[@ROCKETIER69]

Two drummers Fucking amazing An indication of a tight band You guys fucking rock! Thank you

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

This was when I got into the band, such an amazing record front to back. It feels so surral now that Johnny Marr just decided to full-on join Modest Mouse for a while, like a fever dream lol

[@dianelee1299]

Ah. The two drummers! Even now in 2024 this performance gives me chills. This is perfection

[@VeracruzTVv]

Wow! Johnny Marr!!! The Legend!

[@D38AS3R]

The percussion alone always gives me the feels!

[@jczapa7]

Umms, David? Hello!? That's Johnny Marr! Show some respect to the geezer!

[@Kperson123]

jczapa7 Yeah but I think Johnny's more than happy to stay in the background.

[@bernlin2000]

The camera operators certainly knew it was him....they practically had a camera one him just for closeups

[@michaeld2060]

Such a great album!

[@DrinkWater22]

And another great thing about them is now they have Johnny Marr as the guitarist. Doesn't get much better than that.

[@brandonramirez8692]

How is life going

[@sheriffrust]

Wow 13 years

[@jonathangilson5076]

Sir J Marr leading with his perfect riff - Saluting a magician. Respect.

[@theevil090]

>when the band has 2 drummers

[@oliverhecker]

Alt Rocker nice dubs

[@whatdothlife4660]

It doesn't add anything. I saw Trail of Dead play with 2 drummers too and it's generally a waste of tour bus space IMHO.

[@BabyBoomerChannel]

It generally means one of the drummers is related to the Band's leader

[@daebom992]

gud wan

[@jenniehunter3770]

Loren Darcy but that is because its trail of dead, not Modest Mouse.

[@phildona]

Some guy in the beginning was mind blown by the Modest Mouse Album title I guess, which is an awesome phrase if I say so my self

[@chadwickwright2833]

That was Paul you dunce!!

[@jt8713]

This dam song still holds up!!!

[@Ailensinvadethe970]

Always

[@wetwingnut]

The mouse always makes me smile - thanks!

[@marknh3312]

I saw them on this tour. The band was awesome with Johnny Marr! Oh wait they’re awesome live without him too!

[@carlos555yerald000]

Que chingoneria de rola y que perfecta ejecución larga vida modets mause

[@friscolopter]

Two drummers?! How does anyone even manage to keep one drummer?!

[@thunderpooch]

It takes two drummers to be noticed when you have bloody, freakin Johnny Marr to contend with!!! Marr is masterclass. He's so damn good and I don't think he even knows it or even much cares. He just gets up there and makes any song quite enjoyable.

[@Budman_Official]

They have 3now

[@TarusMixes]

Look up King Crimson, 3 drummers

[@ThomasMarekGotovski]

confused slipknot screaming

[@grantss1]

If Spinal Tap taught as anything it's that you always need a spare drummer...

[@Belou240]

You know it’s going to feel real and authentic when the only thing in tune is the keyboard.

[@kellyhartman7266]

How do you go about asking John Marr to be in your band? I mean, I know Modest Mouse is awesome, but was it seemed like something Isaac Brock just blurted out when he had had the courage of one too many Frenets. (Next day his band mates were like, "Dude, you were housed last night. You asked Johnny Marr to be in the band... He said yes, and I don't think he was kidding.")

[@dbp-wv1hs]

IIRC I read that Modest Mouse was Marr's daughter favourite band, and that's how they got onto each others radar.

[@tandbergj]

The outsider a perfect circle

[@thunderpooch]

Johnny Marr strikes me as one of those masterclass individuals that doesn't have much of an ego and is extremely humble, simply because he has an outlet for his amazing talent and can always find one. He plays the guitar very well and is one of the best. End of story. He doesn't strike me as one who sits around and broods about his fame and genius or how to maximize his stardom. In a way it holds him back, but in another way it's refreshing. Sometimes I wish he had a better manager that would fill his head with what he truly needs to hear: "Damn it, Marr. You're the best. Don't settle. And Modest Mouse? They're ok, but you could do better. Quit selling yourself short or simply hopping from gig to gig. If you wanted, you could be HUGE."

[@transamination]

I believe they put an ad in a local Portland newspaper for a 'Johnny Marr-style guitarist', and then Johnny Marr turned up to audition!

[@jaolin6042]

You've gotta check out the clip with Marr telling the story about when Happy Mondays tried to force him to join them. Should be here on youtube.

[@richasay9077]

It appears that Dave was oblivious to the fact that he had legendary Johnny Marr on stage...

[@realskaterbnb23]

johnny marr!!!!!

[@Gabes47]

These guys are the coolest guys ever

[@prav7370]

He just throws the shaker over his shoulder at 1:50 haha

[@80419415769]

Commitment!

[@ROCKETIER69]

AKA a Maraca.

[@joshneill6057]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥 Modest mouse is life…

[@theautomaticstops2780]

So very drummers wow

[@LaMadrinadeHulk]

The Smiths😮🎸Johnny Marr!!!

[@yessylebarrio7989]

Its just cool as fuck to see johnny playing with these dudes

[@michelled8478]

That was so tight I got claustrophobic in a good way.

[@Shep11111]

TIME FLIESSSSSSS

[@bamadave83]

Best MM song

[@Ginoza.27]

Johnny Marr

[@sira4487]

Rip Jeremiah Green

[@drewskkiiii]

LOVEEEEEE

[@LeftOutofZeppelin]

i'm not. i was just trying to give an opinion. and yeah, they do deserve a lot of fans, just not fans who are fake.

[@kdigydigy]

Love this! Love mm

[@razors98]

Anyone else see Jeremiah Green through the shaker at 1:49 ?

[@Atom1990-m2j]

At the time it seemed perfectly natural that a giant of british indie would momentarily join a pretty obscure American band for one album. Now it seems bananas.

[@thejamnasium6447]

wasn't Float On like a top 10 hit? not that obscure

[@edwardspencer3906]

2 drummers AND Johnny Marr!

[@bernlin2000]

Holy shit...Johnny Marr was in this band from 2006-2008....how the hell did Isaac pull that off?!?!

[@alexisb3925]

Happy 12 year and 9 day anniversary to this performance

[@littIemotel]

the audio performance is fantastic but their stage presence amuses me

[@TheNdrewww1]

johnny fuckin marr

[@jonathanmenlove2834]

Mother of God... now that is a groove

[@Maztuhmind]

Tobey Maguire and topher grace? oh God, don't tell me that this was around the time of spider man 3's release.

[@Majora99]

+Maztuhmind It was.

[@sdc5133]

Andy Macleod from Love as Laughter

[@mightguy123456]

Imagine not shaking Johnny Marrs hand at the end! Tisk tisk

[@King_Cyn]

Apparently, Love as Laughter signed onto Glacial Place, so I'm wondering if Angle will be replacing Judy while he's off to take care of Milo.

[@kenmoulton5221]

Are those your drums?

[@vicodin36]

yes, they're mine

[@yethatkid]

unreal

[@jacquelineannepoitras4053]

I think I actually saw this on tv and just realized that - strange

[@jacquelineannepoitras4053]

Was it funny

[@BabyBoomerChannel]

JM added so much texture to their sound - an effortless fullness. Without him they sound ..... not so great. Even with another guitarist doing the Marr parts, it's still not the same. JM is just so great.

[@chadwickwright2833]

Meh, that's extremely subjective!! They've had so many great records. He only made one record with them. Your comment holds no water.

[@Antibong]

You hear that? No water!

[@ashtheestampede]

Johnny Marr!!!!

[@TimBeitz-vp2fw]

Nice going men David liberamen

[@TimBeitz-vp2fw]

David Alphabet man

[@dmitrymerzlikin4209]

[@blonieface]

They do the best pixies impersonating

[@cristianjairbress1921]

Heeey..johnny marr.

[@alexmaccity]

[@sianspherica]

Where is Eric? He was still in the band during this time.

[@teeveecreep8458]

Stiffler on bass!

[@fredcamerato1017]

The two drummers thing is kinda awesome! Like this if you agree!

[@thunderpooch]

Two what??? I was too busy watching the jingle jangle God known as Johnny Marr.

[@TheJudoJoker]

Anyone know the TP&A reference in this song?

[@willlliw]

he left the tour for unknown reasons

[@allbassrocker]

i am really trieing to remember my sources...fuck...maybe their myspace..or wikipedia..i really forgot but if i find it again ill be sure to share...burt eric judy is the man..im sad dan gullicci is out of the band now too.

[@KristenBergman]

WHO IS THE BASS PLAYER? i met him today! can't find him anywhere! please, anyone with info

[@restanibalu]

JOHNNY MARR!!!!

[@fleursbruyantes4177]

This is a lot better than the album version.

[@sclogse1]

Costello has this stuff down.

[@YummyBaer]

Jonny Marr so good they had to get two drummers just to keep up.

[@smokinbill]

Does anyone know what shoes marr is wearing?

[@kimjung-hun2043]

live news

[@Loethor]

What is the name of This song?

[@thedindon]

Kudos, he could have sang it better if he didn’t play guitar, but he had to because ARTIST

[@lucasshaffer3324]

Johnny Fuckin Marr

[@CodyT3212]

The vocal performance is kinda weak....but other than that it's great. Im seeing them on the 10th.

[@stratmad]

Johnny Fuckin’ Marr

[@DrinkWater22]

He hasn't left the band you fools!

[@Chalky-ze6js]

Brick love lamp Johnny love jaguar

[@alexzeldin8902]

Is that Toby on keyboards?

[@allbassrocker]

i heard he dropped out of the tour completely.

[@Godpuncher420]

Is that Toby Flenderson from the Office on keyboards?

[@appleguyforeternity]

It's Tom Peloso.

[@michaelscott9026]

Erik Barbour Toby. They probably pre-recorded his part because he would probably mess up. 🤣🤪

[@raygevork3954]

rico nasty

[@migu9999]

Hey band here is the new guitarist, his name is Jimmy Page or something.

[@MyCatIsNamedChubmuffin]

Johnny Marr

[@holmholmsen4158]

I think we've put enough years behind ourselves and this release to admit that, yes, this wasn't as good as any of their previous albums, but it still had a couple of bangers.

[@Antibong]

what the fuck does he even say at 1:52

[@carlos555yerald000]

Jajajaj era mouse jejejw

[@JorshWarshington1]

Not the same without the falsetto backing vocals.

[@seanmichael2917]

Tobey maguire?!!!so it's true he is gonna be in spiderman 3....no way home this proves it

[@pprockandrollthebestplayli5866]

Letterman had no idea that Johnny played on his show...what a big ignorance

[@willlewis4879]

no judy

[@khunopie]

Which one is Bono?

[@kurtcobainsmicrophone6969]

Johnny Fuckin' Marr. Can the man make bad music?

[@jenniehunter3770]

Sucks the band didnt get to say anything. Good music anyway

[@allbassrocker]

where the FUCK is ERIC JUDY??????

[@Lanesullivan1984]

Modest Mouse is okay but with Johnny Marr they were perfect. This was their best album by far and it was all due to him and that Jag...

[@chadwickwright2833]

Extreme disagree!!
