The Toadies - I Burn (w/ 2 floor toms) - Live at the Troubadour in West Hollywood on 3/21/14

[@GeetarAdam]

This entire song is like a chord-and-a-half....but it manages to conjure a degree of badassery that boggles the mind.

[@sirclintonify]

Was listening to Kurt earlier tonight. Thank you for reminding me I wanted to listen to Lane next.

[@GeetarAdam]

Clint Michardson Staley was the best vocalist to emerge from the whole "grunge" scene, I think...one of the best in rock history, really.

[@birdbraINCorporated]

good ol ancient rhythmic pounding of drums!!

[@brucemetzger183]

@@GeetarAdam Sorry friend, Chris Cornell has that title. Lane's tricks are cool and both him and Kurt have a hell of a spitting nails voice but with Cornell's timber, bass, and, range, he takes the lead.

[@GeetarAdam]

@@brucemetzger183 While my opinion may differ, I certainly can appreciate yours. Between Lane and Chris, there are really no other close contenders. They were both phenomenal in their own rights. For my part, I think Lane had better vocal control…exhibited better trills and runs…soul kinda stuff…but Chris had a better more raw kinda Robert Plant pure rock power in his higher register. At the prodigious level, these things are kinda subjective. I find that I feel more connection to Chris’s vox as I age, but I still think that…pre-heroin damage…Lane’s voice was just more pure Marshall full-stack than Chris’s. But it’s kinda like arguing over who was a better boxer, Joe Louis or Sugar Ray Robinson. Both were apex.

i'm hypnotized by how perfectly in sync those guys were on the toms

[@josephbenson4444]

so under-rated what a great live band, consistently. i have seen them since 1994 and will continue anytime they are in the area. they rip it up every time, and really really nice guys.

[@Grenadeh]

Man he is still kicking ass after 20 years and those floor toms are badass as fuck. I'm seeing them in Houston in a few weeks.

[@meganglastetter3221]

I saw them in April of '14 and they did the 2 toms thing for I Burn there too. Coolest song of the night

[@kornfreak78]

Love these guys! :)

[@internetsurvivor]

something strangely ray bradbury about this song.

[@YamCherie]

152 views? Are people too crazy-busy with napkin folding lessons, and they aren't listening to one of the top 5 most talented bands of the 90's.

[@sirclintonify]

This is too good.

[@Grenadeh]

Don't impale me for saying this but this song always reminds me of the 65,000,000 BC music in Chrono Trigger. Like, A LOT like it. I can't help but wonder if Yasunori Mitsuda heard this song and was like "Yes. This. I shall 16-bit it."

[@collinwilliamfrankhill1145]

Sound fucking great dude..

[@crystallinn72]

Biggest Fan!

[@brucemetzger183]

Nope, sorry. Tis me.

[@chuckkkddiiieeuu222]

That bass is so looming

[@morgansalgat375]

best bass line ever...next 2 dragonaut by sleep

[@sirclintonify]

FUCK ME these guys ROCK!! Always have.

[@rolandtellez9695]

Can't count the times I've seen them...but I caught them Josabi's and this performance with the Tom Toms was incerdible...

[@SeanCC]

I just got back from a show at Emo's in Austin and saw this addition for the first time and my jaw was on the floor. What a great addition to the song. You just can't have too much percussion.

[@rolandtellez9695]

Sean Cunningham missed thay show...had to work...but wasn't that set insane!!! Peace.

[@SeanCC]

My younger brother had seen the at an earlier leg in this tour and he was being cryptic about "I hope they do what they did when I saw them before," but he wouldn't say what that was. When he saw the floor toms being set up he nearly danced a jig.

[@rolandtellez9695]

Ha...JIG!!!!!

[@birdbraINCorporated]

wow!!

[@jdd4311]

[@SuperYockster]

Lordy. Wow.

Vaden todd is God

[@Frank-sm9yl]

Sounds nice but the electric guitar on rhe original is powerful. Plus I despise the audience singing along like a pop audience.

[@finallucario5873]

Hell yeah
