[@tomclemens5345]

damn, that guy is one of the best bbq grill players i ever heard.

[@matthewmoss1589]

THE best.

[@saintsataniko2116]

He's fantastic! Unfortunately it looks like the BBQ has been their implement of choice for the past 30 years.

[@siriusylee]

Yep

[@billmiller9448]

The grill sounds a little flat to me. Just saying.

[@bassisdaplace]

I’ve heard better LOL 😆

[@Thomwill00]

White tube socks and cargo shorts. This man is truly a dad.

[@YouTube_OG]

I see people wearing this as todays fashion, he was ahead of his time once again.

[@blackrebelradio9879]

Why you keep hity Les they will be one. I found her. Non binary platonic up.

[@blackrebelradio9879]

Mes Wes BRR 311 514📐©️🖕🤘

[@bmbrod34]

Punk AF regardless. Punk is an attitude, not an outfit

[@ericcoleman288]

He's fine if he has no show socks

[@mattybones1596]

[@ShellshockedRadio]

What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZDbfp2mjbhqeNE Very well done!

[@Truth.is.out.there3200]

Wife dragged me to this concert in Dallas, Tx. The acoustic bass player -> shook the ground & the music was incredible. Now I crank them in my truck !!! Great sing-a-long tunes

[@AldousShitbird]

That kid is smiling and he doesn't even know why yet

[@ucantcompare2U2]

He will when he's in 10th grade.

[@cockhammer09]

You are so so right on that....I see things going just fine...or on the other hand, we'll be spending $$$$$ on his full-time imprisonment....such has become this so wacky world.

[@daveg4236]

Or he's so strung out

[@samuelbasye3508]

Or does

[@lazarus1908]

i just love the kids reaction on stage...he looks speechless

[@spynae]

God I love that bigass Earthwood acoustic bass

[@Pixelslet]

This made me smile. It's nice to see everyone enjoying it so much

[@dietwater9772]

His voice got younger with age

[@zegumazim6107]

[@rickyriggs404]

Awesome! Is it just me or is Gordon starting to look a lot like Stephen King?

[@_EightySix]

[@kiwijiwi108]

[@DZM1720.]

[@dustyfats6639]

Damn he can Really play that George Forman

[@karengagner4290]

Would give anything to see a show like this now.... saw them in Detroit 30 years ago...wouldn't trade that in for anything

[@jhvaelohimmeth]

Age may change us in many ways, but it should not take our essence away.

[@daosong4994]

That kid is smiling and he doesn't even know why yet They’ve still got it!

[@simona7517]

Wow Gordon Gano's voice is still super resonant!

[@riffraffrichard]

Great to hear , a lot of joy in their playing, they still love it

[@ovaryacted]

They’ve still got it!

[@MisterFabulous76]

Pretty cool that Vigo the Carpathian came out of retirement to slap some bass.

[@thefastandthefurious1]

Christopher Read haha he totally looks like Vigo!!! Good call!!! 🤣

[@chrisstar969]

[@ledgeon83]

I was totally thinking the same thing lol

[@ddr.5959]

If you like Violent Femmes, check out The Moutain Goats. They're like Femmes 2.0 😀

[@DonnieDarko1]

😜😜😜😁❤

[@Lazzie_the_Psilocybe_Deity]

Danny Carey on bass

[@indigojones8]

The kid is the bassist's grandkid or son? Hopefully six years ago it's his son, but at this point ... feeling old but also feeling 20-somthing again!

[@darkangel6806]

O moleque foi canta levou logo um violão na cara kkk

[@tylero8595]

Getting old is the worst

[@jonathonmeyer2398]

this made me sad

[@_EightySix]

Until this moment I thought this was some new hipster band that came out sometime after around 2012, when I first heard them. Does anybody know why they suddenly began playing this song on major radio stations several years back? I had honestly never heard of them, were they a lesser known band in their heyday?

[@nudnick]

They were a very successful “niche” band, like XTC.

[@nadenka_musica]

y a dónde está el pogo?

[@trottercl]

Chile 2022?

[@Beatboxbizboy]

Where is the rest!!!??

[@annabelablue]

This song was overplayed for a while but this performance is great

[@JimTheDruid-db3ok]

Small venue gods

[@LukasBolini]

Here bc of Trixie

[@sharlennla4982]

Why was that kid there? Was it one of the band members son?

[@peacelovesunmusic3483]

this made me sad This makes me feel old and I'm only 26

[@RemoteAbductionArm]

That little dude is gonna be chasing that high for the rest of his life. Hopefully it'll work out.

[@praveenraj4640]

Oh wow this is going to be a classic KEXP session, I can feel it Pretty cool that Vigo the Carpathian came out of retirement to slap some bass.

[@AlphaQ23]

The thing that is funny about this I've been to and watched many MLB games in Wrigley field in person on air and watching games on tv against others.. and THey just play this beat.. hah no pun intended.. though it took a bit of a towel to wipe out. Funny part is just people who start cheering for it who dont get what it means... lmao..

[@adityakurdunkar6655]

i might be the only 17 yr old dancing to it.

[@Beatboxbizboy]

Oh shit

[@stephenmcfarlin8008]

i just love the kids reaction on stage...he looks speechless Damn he can Really play that George Forman you know you can play drums when you do it on a bbq grill

[@Danny6464]

I'm shocked how sloppy this is, but his voice still sounds the same.

[@NobleHam]

Were The Violent Femmes ever not sloppy? It's kind of part of their image. That's early punk.

[@daveg4236]

It's sloppy on purpose my friend. No shock needed.

[@marshallburd5087]

@@daveg4236 sum people just don't get punk

[@bhotaling1]

Who's the kid?

[@hillaryforpresident5005]

that is his son

[@cheeverdog]

Dude I forgot the kit. Hand me that treager.

[@seanfinkel9621]

No BBQ solo ? ? ? I'd like to speak to the manager....

[@alexflippo2272]

Bob Sagat really killed the vocals.

[@MoiraRussell]

I AM ASHAMED FOR MY CITY. We used to belt that song out on the dance floor! Get raucous, audience!
