I assume this is an arcane ritual in which they were trying to summon the Tambourine Guy.

[@rodrigoalmendro3118]

very underrated comment

[@RavioliFr]

What a entire mythilogy around PMJ. I like that.

[@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself]

6th-level bard spell?

[@officialapod8657]

This is the best KZbin comment I've read in a looooooong time. Well played sir.

[@generictimestamperstupendi9021]

i love how tambourine guy just IS a thing now

[@CallMeMrRook]

WARNING...extreme fun occurred whilst shooting this video.. these are professionals... do not try this at home..

[@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself]

CallMeMrRook, I tried this at home, and I hurt myself. I hurt myself real bad. #WorthIt

[@realhorrorshow8547]

Don't worry, it won't hurt you, baby won't hurt you, no more.

[@manchesterunitedno7]

You hurt yourself today. To see if you can feel.

[@balsoft01]

@@manchesterunitedno7 The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting But I guess PMJ injected something different from Johnny...

[@Marie45610]

I love how things went off the rails in this song. It makes me happy.

[@chazzwozzio]

It's the same at live concerts! They get the whole crowd dancing like fools

[@tommyvercetti6549]

That plot twist got me 😂😂😂😂

[@nickysantoro9194]

I never got the whoa oa oaoaoaoa I was needing tho....

[@jnicksnewstart]

Every time I hear this song, even now, even though it's slow, I can't help but see Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell bouncing Molly Shannon back and forth between themselves.😂

[@ItsMe-fs4df]

This just ended up chaotic AF... I loved every second of it 🤣

[@jeanbaptiste6939]

Easily one of the best examples of good people making good music and having fun doing it

[@HenryBugalho]

Casey is someone that clearly breathes music and everything that he does is visceral. Loved this version. You guys are awesome!

[@arthurjrn]

Hahaha que legal encontrar um comentário seu aqui! Coincidência bem aleatória e legal 😀😄 Sou muito fã de seu trabalho!

[@blakev8]

Como assim o henry por aqui? Tem bom gosto kkkk

[@c4rllus957]

Olha oq agnt acha nos comentários as vezes em

[@raimundomorim]

Que achado!! Já sei sobre o que conversar com o Henry no bar depois que o Bolsonaro for chutado

[@k-foodcompanykfc3900]

I am almost ashamed of admitting that I had never even heard this guy before stumbling upon a PMJ video some months ago. Since then I have seen a lot of videos featuring Casey and he is phenomenal, he always adds a special and very uplifting kind of vibe on everything he puts his hands on, be it singing or instrument playing. This fact also shows how important and succesfull the PMJ project is...

[@upupdowndown]

Thanks for letting me come and be a part of this!!!!! It was so much fun :) - Austin Creed

[@ScottBradlee]

^^check out Austin's channel, y'all!

[@AramisHall]

Honor Roll into tambourine play, followed by trombone combos and an electric chair saxophone finish! Great move-set Austin!

[@NickMannFilm]

How many takes did you guys have to do??

[@andychristensen2947]

Was Casey just trying to get you all to laugh as hard as he wanted to laugh during that? Post Modern Pro Rasslin' Jukebox, ftw!

[@swestervelt]

Much love from the giant bomb family. PMJ and giantbomb crashing together is magic. We need more Austin in our videos.

[@postmodernjukebox]

Well that escalated quickly. Get this on iTunes here: smarturl.it/pmjwhatislove

[@asten77]

PostmodernJukebox can you put all the things on Google Play Music? a lot of us don't use iTunes.

[@brandonsanchezrojas]

*Im a channel that plays music. If u could check it out it would mean a lot!*

[@Timberwolf69]

All those little things one can find in your videos is what makes them special to me. And the music is the cherry on top. ;)

[@sheppardthehero2472]

This is what jazz is supposed to be all about. This video is not only entertaining from all the excellent musical performances, but also just because everyone in the video seemed to be wildly entertained just performing this arrangement. I look forward to seeing more videos like this from you guys!

[@enriquemercevich4136]

you shoud see this video with some of the PJM musicians kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYemd5dpZ7CIjNk :D

[@postmodernjukebox]

You only find the PMJ rabbit hole when you are ready for it ❤️ welcome, friend

[@twoodyatwood]

This is quite possibly the best thing I have ever watched. Casey is absolutely bonkers - hence why he is my hero! haha. The world would be a darker place without you guys!

[@arleensmith8841]

twoodyatwood I agree one thousand percent love Casey is the bomb

[@WhateverIsTrue01]

my feelings exactly

Casey is the best. This is AMAZING.

Casey is king. please keep him forever

[@Moviemaniac221]

This song absolutely revived a dead crowd from yesterday's concert. the energy, enthusiasm, and sheer madness was infectious. Cheers!

[@webbit1518]

We have a new lead man for the modern blues brothers!!

[@mayalarks6622]

Lmao I don't know what just happened but I liked it.

[@ScottBradlee]

none of us knew what happened, either.

[@bradwinters8306]

+Scott Bradlee what are the chances we get a video of casey doing something jazzy, something like his nature boy or georgia on my mind i love these videos with Casey but i feel like we need one of his signature performances

[@arleensmith8841]

Brad Winters What a great idea

[@jul9cuz]

Dos Crazy Kids !!!

[@felad1r448]

Just like first time sex

[@frondeus]

Casey + PMJ =

frondeus truly!

[@ProJatior]

frondeus but... What is

[@rodrigomorchio970]

A heart, look at it sideways.

[@stephsaad]

AWESOME guys !!! but how dare you get a new tambourine guy without consulting us ?

[@Angelica-Pickles]

This makes me so happy because I'm glad people care about the musicians as well

[@Jormunduur]

FYI, new Tambourine guy is Austin Creed, as in WWE Wrestler Austin Creed. Fantastic

[@dustymax56]

Yeah, what he said, and one of his gimmiks is that he plays a trombone in the ring when with his group The New Day

[@zennin426]

astracartman Damn right) ain't no one can replace Tim Kubart :)

[@fireyflower6643]

astracartman oh no new tamborine guy? I LOVED the other one! He's hilarious!

[@chahnez3457]

0:00 to 1:02 the song is soft and slow 1:05 to 2:55 ok the song is going fast but still good though 2:56 to 4:55 What the hell just happened things are out of control . Well the song expresses perfectely the steps of me getting drunk from being cool at the beginning untill i lose my shit in the end 🙄🙄🤪

[@danielaarroba6356]

sometimes !!!

[@davesalisbury1820]

Casey Abrams looks and acts like he is having FUN! AMAZING cover! Thank You!

exactly what did you put in their tea, scott?

[@thundercookie3214]

And can I please have some?

[@wyattwahlgren8883]

The amount of energy in this song reminds me of the tambourine guy.

[@ibrahimemara761]

Tambourine guy = The best musician in history, ever.

[@simplyAnita]

:D that was the previous song I saw :D

[@OneUponADime]

Are you talking about Xavier Woods?

[@FuugaNatsu]

@@OneUponADime I think they mean the guy from the Barbie Girl cover - you'll have to watch to quite a ways in to find out why, gonna try not to spoil anything about what happens, 'cause I feel it'd take something away from the first viewing.

[@brian-8814]

I greatly appreciate all the dead serious background instrumentation going on. Shits gone off the rails up front, serious players in the back.

[@MortMe0430]

At first I was all, ah another great arrangement and performance you wouldn't have considered. Then I was all like !!!! Off the walls bonkers chaotic energy and an instant day-maker!

[@BlairdBlaird]

Going off the rails is pretty common when Casey is involved. Also Maiya's side-eye at 0:34 is the perfect prelude.

[@shank549]

[Jim Carrey intensifies]

[@Crowborn]

*headbobbing*

[@flyingtable]

3 months later...still bobbing head.

[@TheAtticus19]

You mean Will Ferrell intensifies?

​@@TheAtticus19No. It's Jim Carrey, Will Ferrell, and Chris Kattan.

3:36 In the saxophonist's head : This definitely ain't what I signed up for

[@waynecrburnett]

Shaunee. Have to disagree. Jacob is hilarious. He's not always the centre of attention which is why people miss him carrying out all kinds of tricks. Being carried around was probably HIS idea!

[@lauryne8960]

JAJAJAJJAJA

[@travisrose9716]

[@mayalarks6622]

Also the background vocals are amazing

[@BenjaminBowler]

I love Scott's little glances at the camera. I've started to notice them in a lot of videos. Cracks me up. They remind me of the way Jim looks at the camera in the Office.

[@MrKhushrenada]

O.K. that's it I want a 24 hour radio and television station that play this awesome music all day and all night long. It's the best thing in music since MJ. Thank you everyone at PMJ.

[@ZoopRusty]

*Written, Directed and Produced by Casey Abrams*

[@y6tre]

written by?

[@wadespencer3623]

He went back in time to write it. Learn the lore.

[@nickirichards5617]

Casey Abrams is a goddamn gift to music tbh *all the applause*

[@def_not_dan]

That looks like everyone's having so much fun. 10/10 - would like again.

[@SutsuMusic]

This turned a crappy day into one of the best ones ever. Gave off the most infectious good vibe ever and I loved every second!

[@MelodyAGB]

Can't get enough!! BABY DONT HURT ME! BABY DONT HURT ME!!

[@harryschaefer5887]

The change to faster tempo is great. Casey does a great Louis Prima, I'm looking forward to hearing "That ol' black magic soon. He just needs to find his Keely Smith. The band certainly has what it takes!

[@marienoellebl]

I like how Casey looks almost normal for the first 2 minutes and then Bam! SuperCasey!

[@RonKris]

I really enjoy watching any music video with Casey Abrams.

[@MarlaHickerson]

OMG! The energy of this orchestrated flurry of fun and musicality flew out at me! I loved it!

i love this song, but the way they did the beginning makes me wish there was a full song of that slow style. it has a beautiful energy to it

You've done almost only great covers, but that one is certainly (and easily) in my top 3... It's just so amazing. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll listen to it again.

[@MrFishBulb]

Just when I can't love PMJ anymore, in comes Austin Creed from outta nowhere. Hmm, The power of positivity must be strong on this channel for him to show up...

And the blow... You have to lock up the blow.

[@burtonmoore996]

Give this man all the blow. This is good entertainment right cheer.

True that - but then this one is pure joy too!

[@johnkowalkowski4269]

Ok, I'm really late to discovering all of these PMJ gems. They are mostly all fantastic! This one is madcap at moments but the bass player's tribute to SNL's Butabi Brothers, complete with head bobs and correct clothes, is genius.

[@willemportiak4794]

Didn't know Adanna but Maiya is a *fantastic* singer, she's leading on several PMJ, Scary Pockets and Stories pieces and there's never a dud. Her cover of Viva la Vida on SP has a special place in my auditory heart, I will forever be jealous of the people who got to sit in on it.
