Toad the Wet Sprocket - Good Intentions live from Santa Barbara, CA 6-14-1991

Most fans know "Good Intentions" as the track from Toad the Wet Sprocket's B-sides and rarities collection In Light Syrup that garnered significant radio play and cracked the top 20 on several Billboard charts in the mid-1990s. The song, however, found its origins in the early 1990s as one of the tracks that was recorded for but missed inclusion on the band's 1991 release fear. "Good Intentions" was played at live shows as early as the summer of 1990 and occasionally throughout 1991 but disappeared from setlists after not making it onto fear. The song eventually made it onto the soundtrack for Friends and found new life. It can still be heard at Toad shows today. This performance was recorded in Santa Barbara on June 10th, 1991.

Back when indie rock "alternative" was fresh! Toad has been around since 1986. Hats off

Most excellent song 😊❤️👏

Really cool. It always sounds better in the studio, but this let you know that the band really had the kernel of that song down solid. Amazing guitar riff

I thought this song came out in 1995🤔😁

[@caramason56]

@@frankdagostino8588 It was first written in 1991 but they felt it wouldn’t be a top song, so they left it behind, and then in 1995 they decided to release it. I believe that’s what I remember about this song.

Sorry.... Of all the songs this is too candy for me. I was the thumbs down. But thank you for the year of great surprise videos! I really enjoy this. If you can find a live "It doesn't feel like Christmas," you would be my hero. I love that song around this time. Means so much to me as I spend years and years working in Colorado during Christmas and wasn't home with my family and husband.... I went through boxes of tissues listening to that. Cheers!

The videos we load aren't simply about the song or the eye candy. We're trying to upload videos that capture a moment from the past; it might be a unusual performance of a song or something that was rarely played live or maybe a unique demo or an early version of a song. This video shows "Good Intentions" as it existed when the band was first playing the song. It was years before it saw the light of day again. The performance shows the band playing the tune before fear had been released...before they'd had any chart success..before an audience in their hometown. We'd like to believe those qualities make this video "thumbs up" territory as you'd need a DeLorean and Doc Brown to see "Good Intentions" played in this way!

@Rob Holloway it's not the end of the world... I constantly praise them for their work, and I am far from a fair weather fan of this channel or the band. Lighten up people... It's Christmas

ComeBackDownload Yeah man, I was thinking it’s like I have a time machine gadget. Glens eyes look like he has a buzz on. Excellent camera angles, pan to the bass at the right time. Would’ve enjoyed a quick jump on stage for a behind the set angle. If you ever want me to capture a behind the set angle in Milwaukee, hit me up. Tight jam guys!
