"You start dating and the next thing you know, you're playing a synthesizer" ICONIC

[@maxinavarro]

This breaks my heart. He was a kid, man.

[@XxUNFASEABLExX3]

That xbox in the back has the red ring of death.

[@deathkampdrone]

Not being an american, it took me some 20 seconds to figure out that "greyhounds" are the buses. I thought for a moment that he brought racetrack dogs along with him on tour

[@bigkroner766]

Steve looks like king buzzo lol

[@strangebrew1231]

“They were a prog rock band and the b-side is unlistenable”

[@prototypefan1234]

this is seriously the most coherent nardwuar interview ive ever seen

[@SpeedDemon908]

I like how the Xbox starts red ringing in the middle of the video

[@kevinmendoza7200]

King...... Crimson???

[@ioshirai777]

[@Yesiamblind]

Fuuuuuuuuuuck I really miss Jay. Still think about that dude a lot. He was a hell of a talent.

This was very bitter sweet. I live in Knoxville TN and like so many others discovered Jay just a little too late. You can learn more about him from this than watching 30 other Jay Reatard KZbin videos. RIP Jay save me a seat in punk hell.

RED RING OF DEATH in the background

[@Bobbydog66]

Wow, knowing that he passed away makes me quite sad, he seems like one of the nicest and most personable interviewies ever. Also wow, red ringed xbox in the background.

[@BB-kz6sd]

He doesn't seem like the massive asshole everyone made him out to be. Definitely a little cynical, but he seems like a really smart guy. So sad to lose him so early.

[@MarvinSpitsBars]

The guy seemed like such a nice & humble dude.. fuck thats sad...

[@juliusebola9389]

Jay was just getting started. Who knows how many great albums he still had in him. Depressing.

[@robbalv6750]

Jay Reatard is one of the best musicians to come out of last decade

[@givennamefamilyname514]

Oh my god,I just clicked this,it's incredible. I always thought about how cool this would be. Thank you,Nuardwar. From the bottom of my cold wretched heart. Bless you. Bless you.
