I love Mike Watt. He is an amazing inspiration.

I’ve seen a million Mike Watt interviews, and this is the most amazing by far. I’ve never heard him get so excited about his gear before! He’s a national treasure

41:06 "More trebly on the bass, and more bassy on the treble." Mike Watt is a genius the way he speaks, I could listen to him all day.

I've had the chance to interview Watt and he's totally on a different level from us. I wanted to just let him talk forever and felt guilty asking more questions.

Mike Watt and the rest of the fIREHOSE guys, Ed Crawford and George Hurley, stayed at my house in Glasgow, Scotland in June ‘87 after they’d played with Sonic Youth . I was bootlegging both bands, and during Sonic Youth’s set I realised Mike was standing right next to me in the middle of the crowd, watching them! Normally I wouldn’t speak to anyone while I was recording but this is Mike bloody Watt!! So obviously I had to say something to this man, it’s not every day you get the chance to talk to a member of Minutemen in Scotland! So I told him I was a a huge fan etc etc and he asked me if I knew anywhere his band could stay for the night, so obviously I said “Yeah! You can stay at mine!” They were all cool as f*ck, signed all of me and my brother’s fIREHOSE and Minutemen albums and singles, and Mike showed me how to play “Corona”, one of my favourite Minutemen tunes! I still have those tapes I made of the fIREHOSE and Sonic Youth sets, complete with my in-the-crowd conversation with Mr Watt!

I played with them when they stopped in Montreal. What an amazing band, the dynamics, the skills of bagetta, the god damn thump of watt and the character of hodges drumming were incomparable. Each one of them was so nice and mike gave me tips with my own rig. Watt loved our band and invited us to his radio show even though we're a small ass band from across the border. These guys are legends but they're so damn generous.

My son and I saw MSSV on the last two years tours, in Pittsburgh, and enjoyed them both times ! Enjoy talking with these guys as well as hearing them play. They are also friendly with signing things and getting photos with them. Always fun to spiel with Watt at The Boat ! The energy these guys have on stage and on the road is unsurpassed......... They will play all across the U.S., and do like 50 shows in 50 days. Who does that ? And in a van and sleeping at fan`s homes..........And they ain`t kids no more, either..........Watt and Hodges especially. We try and catch Watt with whoever he is touring with, on any given year. Ed fROMOHIO Crawford usually comes by to see Watt and play encore(B.O.C.`s The Red & The Black)with Watt too in Pittsburgh !

Been following @MikeBaggetta for years -- he's a jazzer, of course, as are his early albums, and I dig him! Saw this trio last year at a "heavy metal" bar in town, and got to meet Mike -- super-cool cat! The gig was a blast, and the crowd was SO into it! Thanks for doing this gear run-down!

Man, when Mike started talking about his bass he really came alive. I was reflecting on his advancing age shown on his face until then. But all concerns were allayed as soon as Watt got into his rhythm as speaker. Hasn't lost a step.

Impressed by Watt’s knowledge of bass history. He is the first person I have heard state correctly that Leo could play music, he just didn’t play a stringed instruments. I don’t know how many times I’ve heard someone say incorrectly, “Leo couldn’t play a note.”

By the way, near the end of the video, the bass line Watt plays when he goes through the different pickup configurations is from "Whisperin' While Hollerin'," from the fIREHOSE record "fROMHIO."

Mike Watts rig is very up to date cutting edge bass stuff, I must confess I’m surprised. There’s a lot of stuff there that you hear praise about on online forums but never see on actual stages, where old fender and ampeg still rules. I mean, Broughton and Sushi, in a Bergantino rig, there’s some real Talkbass vibes there 😂

31:52 This is one of the greatest interviews ever!! I never knew that about the P-Bass name origin. But the “Everyone called the electric bass a 4 string guitar when it was invented. No! 4 string DRUM SET!! What’s the closest note? KICK DRUM!” He’s full of gems

Wow...I'm also getting old (pushing 50) but how well does Mike Watt (a teenage hero of mine) play the part of the creepy uncle who leans in too far? Bands of the SST era were not known for their rig tone...just the Fort Apache sound. Love this guy, but also creeped out by his "I'm not there" mentality. You can kinda see it in the interview.
