[@scottgates601]

These guys are living the life, Drinking coffee and listening to music + fuckload of money!

[@Maxi3242]

add some weed to that to make it perfect

[@beano1eye]

I have little money, I drink SH1T coffee, But I have colossal tunes!

[@mosttypesofmusic7502]

Same here dude..

[@Theomite]

You can live quite well off of LORD OF THE RINGS money, I hear.

[@superdougie10]

And don't forget the Kush....lol

[@thirstypilgrim97]

Elijah just displayed what has to be the opposite of manspreading.

[@Thievius333]

Meaning, he has no fucking testicles.

[@handrewmillan4293]

i didnt even know it was possible to sit like that

[@questhero101]

Knowing that Elijah Wood likes records puts a smile on my face.

[@crucialreedy]

this is what its like to not worry about cash and just buy shit that seems cool

[@danielpemberton3348]

The way they talk about records, part of me feels like they would be doin this even if they were broke lol

[@techstyle123]

That leg cross ...some dark magic still in frodos bones

[@pipsta]

Coming from the other video. "What's in my baggins".

[@aaronchamberlain4698]

Loved this video but honestly videos like this need be much longer.....! You could have asked top 10, watch them hunt for a few, white whales they have and search for a few, etc....

[@paulc5358]

I agree

[@escaton74]

it's already annoying at this length. they're acting like best girl friends in highschool

[@Henryduckfan63]

@@escaton74 That's why we want more.

[@TheVinylCorner]

Fantastic! Welcome to The Vinyl Community guys!

[@NTidelius]

such a comfy video. they both seem like chill, down to earth people

[@stace_d]

Every couple months I watch this again when I need to unwind.

[@briandressel1344]

Good guys. Amazing collection.

[@leahdorothy]

if i was rich this is totally the life i would be living

[@ganjazz]

Elijah has great taste in music. I follow him on Twitter and discovered lots of cool music from him.

[@mehmetaslan3391]

Such as Malabadi Köprüsü and Halhal and Binboğa?

[@vestaxwax]

Lots of soy was consumed in the making of this video.

[@amandareviews4674]

2:47 excuse me what are you doing with your legs

[@edawhg]

I just went and listened to like the weather by 10,000 maniacs and it's so good, doesn't feel like a guilty pleasure song

[@BigDaddyZakk420]

Does he have the turntable from A Clockwork Orange? That's insanely awesome.

[@nicoleparker3773]

Watching Elijah Wood pick records, it is the furthest from banal. I have seen wooden wisdom at Studio bar in Toronto as well as Atomic Lollipop. The small bar suited them better. The small bar was a crowd itching for good tunes and waiting to see what the DJs would provide. The entire crowd danced up and down to whatever pace they set. Watching Elijah Wood pick out records, seriously in thought to balance what Zach Cowie played, his look of concentration and then proud happiness on his choice, is the hottest thing I have ever seen. That is the furthest thing from banal.

[@misstembo2000]

True that! Wooden Wisdom duo has arrived to Poland and the swept me off my feet with their funk set. They call their tunes 'garage paradise' and played it at the Shakespeare theatre in my hometown. Wicked night.

[@DJMARINKOx]

I remember that Toronto show!

[@IanAannevik]

Sunn o))) is the pinnacle of lovemaking music.

[@vladtepes3201]

I wish I had a "Lord of the rings" sized pile of cash to spend on vinyl.

[@big_burly_bro]

Too hip for chairs?

[@Spitfiregirl01]

I’m gonna hire Elijah for my future wedding disco

[@boogiedownbronx73]

that Zach dude laughs the same as Seth Rogen

[@yannickaudet1487]

Stoner's laugh...

[@mydadsaysaudio6192]

Am I the only one who assumed this was Elijah's stereo gear? I just worked out he's at his friend's Zachs house. He talks about bringing records, asks how much the mug cost. Elijah owns a pair of LA Scalas, driven by Cary monoblocks.

[@lgl5701]

Is that a Cobain shirt? I can't tell because of the crunch. I feel like I had that shirt a hundred years ago when I was 13/14. A birthday gift it was.

[@lashercollette88]

LGL Yeah it is

[@ashleyshaffett8798]

I ♥ Elijah wood

[@denisrochac]

all those "they look gay" comments must come from really uptight men. What does it matter? Sick record collection

[@23Lgirl]

he has a girlfriend and a baby

[@23Lgirl]

@Useonlyforstudy M'Dear Elijah wood

[@tazmon122]

that awkward question about soundtrack for sex....well yeah of course that's how they'll answer, they've got these nice homes in Hollywood with lots of space and no roommates. the correct answer is anything from NIN to Marvin Gaye to Angels And Airwaves depending on the mood. the funeral question there is only 1 correct answer: funeral at night cuz mourning is for suckers//rent a ferris wheel and cotton candy machine//with an open bar//all the Pabsts you can drink//your PA blasting my Clash records

[@cv-bo5to]

1:10 that's what Lord Of The Rings money gets you

[@Bentumen]

Please make more with these guys, love to see more!

[@grfhumpf]

I've put the Suzanne Menzel here, folks: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnu0eZKQmtuEiMU ps: thanks, Elijah

[@grfhumpf]

Well, Frederiksberg Records removed the album (their rights(?!)). However there is a torrent for it and you can find very easily on google! ;)

[@garrettcarroll5808]

Wait a minute, he's a fucking DJ now?!

[@pipsta]

He's been a DJ for years. He also has his own film company.

[@neiloughton]

Oh wow: www.discogs.com/sell/release/6289082?ev=rb

[@genemcfadden6331]

Could one of you gentlemen please give me some advice as to how I would go about selling my vinyl collection ? The collection is basically from the 1950's to the 1980's . The majority of the LP's have outer plastic sleeves for protection. There are also about 18 cases of 45's . Would appreciate any advice. Thank you.

[@helgar791]

Let's see. First guesses. Mitchell Gyrodec, Transrotor TT of some type, Klipshorn's, MacIntosh control center and tubes. I don't know the brand. Phono preamp, I don't know either. Record collection slightly (slightly) bigger than mine. All very nice.

[@leon9021]

Didnt know Elijah Woods was interested in records.

[@matsuda1994]

check his 'What's in my Bag?' episode :)

[@matsuda1994]

look at all those Impulse record spines...

[@SeenACowSki]

First thing my eyes went to.

[@djmikeramirez]

everybody is a dj know a days

[@Bentumen]

Can you guys do more with these guys, such a good taste

[@briandressel1344]

“Now we are doing this” LOL!!!!

[@Theomite]

I wish the cell phone people would take a cue from the Phish bootleggers and make it about preserving the history of individual performances and sharing them but I suppose you'd have to smuggle in good equipment for that. And of course, NOT SELL IT!!!

[@xwsftassell]

Oh no.

[@sherrystraus3680]

So good, love that turntable, I think I could just sit there and watch it for hours and hours listening to music.

[@gpuppy1234]

Its like his legs are broken when he crosses them

[@robbe4711]

Could that video exist in a world where only mp3 files are the only way to listen to music?

[@astrojazzman]

I see them impluse records black & orange.

[@efertheredfish2]

It appears he loved the Klipschorn and it seems to be a Clearaudio turntable. Tubes are the 300B's. Bascom had it on the wings of the Infinity IRS.

[@StormDatIsApproaching]

High fidelity:irl edition

[@tcfulton3759]

What's the drum break record at 1:42?

[@dcashley303]

That sound system looks insane!

[@Herkullainen]

and worth a shitload of money.

[@klipsch]

They're Klipschorns and, yes, they are totally insane. It's even more remarkable that the design really hasn't just much since we started making them in 1946: www.klipsch.com/products/klipschorn-floorstanding-speaker

[@randomdude7384]

I bet they bought it because they were influenced by the most legendary owner of the Klipschorns David Mancuso ( who do we have sadly lost in the last year ) R.I.P David

[@randomdude7384]

Seems like the cartridge is Koetsu, so these guys are totally influenced by David, it is awesome, he was indeed the true genius

[@paulc5358]

Wow those the Klipschorns floor standing speakers are $$$$, Do you know what kind of TT they have & the rest of the gear? Thanks

[@thoroughlywithfoil]

Would love to see their reaction if one were to pop on Paracletus by Deathspell Omega or the ilk

[@namaste91]

Thanks for showing Suzanne Menzel to me guys. It just rocketed up in m wantlist.

[@BlueTaylor88]

Anything Natalie Merchant does is gold

[@brawnybulldogs2310]

these chicks are hot....

[@michelroy3045]

Was a little slow in the beginning but great tips! Thx

[@DonMoldavia]

Wow, great equipment... and a great marijuana, I think.

[@pipsta]

Potito D'Cicuta *coffee

[@SleepyGorillaMuseum]

Why paper inner sleeves though?

[@KRZYCHCZARA]

Gyrodec is a pure art!

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

Tell me Elijah Wood isn't living the god damn life. Enough money to be set for life, and using that money to enable the stuff that gives him joy. Buying records, listening to records, playing records, expanding your musical horizons, upgrading gear to get the listening experience even closer to perfect but knowing it'll never be so you keep going. Taking it easy. Drinking good coffee (and probably taking big pleasing shits because of it). That's the goal for me. Replace 'collecting records' with any hobby you want, and that's the goal. You want friends like this.

[@tomgalesloot245]

Wow that guy in blues had the exact same laugh as Seth Rogan

[@dukenukem3dfx572]

I want to see his equipment!! You know what I'm talking about....

[@rickg8015]

Klipschorns - maybe updated with mods, Transcriptors turntable, Michell with SME arm, McIntosh tube preamp looks restored and/or modded. DHT Triode SE tube monoblock amps looks like Sun Audio Japan clones chassis-wise. The acrylic rack is flexing from the weight of the amps.. And a PWK mug from ebay. Interesting equipment choices from Frodo and his new Sam (?)

[@eso200]

Rick G monoblocks look like sophia electrics 300b

[@BreakfastInEurope]

It's the Mcintosh c22 Reissue you numbskull

[@rickg8015]

Lee Clayton it’s still a “Mac”, Mr. Geddy Lee Clayton..

[@mathatter9158]

I worked for DirectV and someone dealt with issues Elijah Wood was having and said he bought so much porn and for the most part just had it running all the time throughout his house.

[@realTheSuspect]

FRODO!

[@Danjoker.]

Frodo and Aragon

[@minou_1]

cool

[@nauxjonkeith3254]

I feel them on that 17 days! such a banger!

[@hannakhairunnisa3789]

Just like odd conversation with friends. Love it, they're hillarious😂

[@CPizzle83]

I want the Klipsch mug at 3:43

[@covekyes]

are they high?

[@techstyle123]

Yeah on the finest coffee

[@brauchnenusernamen]

"Coffee"

[@alecboyyes]

brauchnenusernamen From Columbia natch.

[@davidmthekidd]

More like are they Gay?

[@jumplineewaldas]

Dj frodo

[@fabriziodelia1554]

worst music related interview. loads of "show off" stuff in here!

[@Benjaminbutton86]

10000 Maniacs is def not a guilty pleasure... you know they got some David Cross in there somewhere they’re more ashamed of

[@milanchemiladinovich9338]

Im 1981 generation, and yes!... listening music should AGAIN be the ritual all people should try!

[@BOOMDIGIDYable]

Nothing to do with records but imagine how hard it was to memorize Frodo’s lines for each lotr movie

[@richieb1125]

Are those Klipsch La Scalas behind them?

[@pikaglob]

What is the Brand of the turntable? :)

[@leon9021]

Mitchell Gyrodec SE I think

[@pikaglob]

thanks mate

[@MrGaberacer]

Why is Elijah saying , "our collection" ? Are they living together ?

[@HarleyAMV]

Because they play music together. I think what he means by "our" is the bands collective record pool which they can use while playing.

[@brandonbuehler563]

The bowing shelf bothering anyone else?

[@brunomaximillian8194]

gosto muito dos filmes do Elijah Wood, o meu preferido desde criança era o Anjo Malvado (the good son).

[@shmink2]

3:52 "Karmon 45, time to move" Google can't find anything. That is the song in the background right? Am I spelling karmon right. I know an artist called karmon is all.

[@jpsgalia]

Carmen - Time to move , it's a 45 single.

[@Pluralofvinylisvinyls]

I want that Klipsch mug!

[@ricardolandaeta8727]

Can anybody tell me what turntables are those? BTW, amazing gear!

[@brnwrck]

A Mitchell Gyrodec SE if I'm not mistaken.

[@ricardolandaeta8727]

thanks.

[@BigDaddyZakk420]

Yep, it's a transcriptor. Same one from A Clockwork Orange actually! I'd kill to own that thing.

[@dannyalvens5418]

Ricardo Landaeta Check out a "Delphi Oracle TT,but his looks like it has a different tone arm..

[@pipsta]

Porco-Dio FIlm Same

[@dasbakon]

Look at all that Impulse! behind them...

[@MisterCatMan]

At last the hobbits can read at peace in their library in bag-end.

[@ronaldwilliams7030]

i love your guys turntable very unique never seen one quit like that before nice

[@Meckermaxxe]

Am I shocked? Hell yes, I am. I saw this a few times, when some high end gear enthusiasts showing their stuff. Extremely expensive gear, designer furniture, everything very stylish. But they are not able to do a proper job with wirering their stuff. Cabels everywhere. Don't like it, cannot understand it.

[@AudiophileLaws]

Awesome!

[@starsareshiny21]

anyone know the credit song, at 6:18?

[@pikaglob]

Carmen - Time to move (1984)

[@MonieMuse]

this is awesome, one of my passions is records, and love seeing others collect - and their collection. plus i've been a Elijah Wood fan since i was 7

[@izzie833]

what tubes are those?

[@HISTORIC909]

300B I think

[@Ididntaskforahandleyoutube]

That's one hell of a collection.

[@MB-oc1nw]

Soy boys

[@bryanc7094]

Useless dumbass

[@MB-oc1nw]

Okay, Tyrone

[@LemonadeOnMars]

gawd I'd love to go to one of their shows

[@juniperj]

BERT JANSCH ❤️

[@hadoboirudo]

ayo frodo

[@HejSofia]

He is such a hipster, still love him

[@BreakfastInEurope]

What a terrible interview lol. Some cool gear tho

[@jonathanpatrick9373]

Curious, what brand the clear table and table tops are. Also what mounted brush that is

[@menschmeier13]

Jonathan Patrick looks like costume builds

[@speedy.1074]

Zach has a laugh of Seth Rogan
