The Hold Steady Band • Page 13

Who the hell is the blue guy? Damn, that’s a shame - one of my favorites on the album.

 

Can't make it to Chicago anymore so I've got 2 tickets to sell for next Saturday at The Salt Shed w/ The Mountain Goats and Dillinger Four. Face value.

 

I’ve got mine, but I’ll check with some friends and see if anyone needs one.

 

Favourite THS songs post-SP?

1. Lanyards
2. Denver Haircut
3. Family Farm
4. The Weekenders
5. Oaks
6. Epaulets

 

That's a tough one. HiW was released during the peak of my THS obsession so I still consider it and Teeth Dreams to be part of that incredible run of records tbh.

The Weekenders
Our Whole Lives
We Can Get Together
Barely Breathing
Spinners
The Only Thing
Oaks
Separate Vacations
Entitlement Crew
Family Farm
Unpleaseant Breakfast

 

I think the clear top 3 are Weekenders, Heaven Is Whenever and Oaks.

Entitlement Crew seems to be the live favourite.

Of those I haven't seen mentioned I'd also shout out Sweet Part of the City, The Ambassador and Sixers

 

Entitlement Crew
Confusion in the Marketplace
Hurricane J
Sixers
We Can Get Together
Blackout Sam
Stove and Toaster

 

Lovvvvvvve confusion in the marketplace

 

Weekenders is so good. Checking out that live version now.

 

I never see it mentioned but I absolutely love Our Whole Lives. And Epaulets.

 

The majority of Thrashing Thru the Passion is incredible

 

Been on a Lifter Puller kick all weekend, what a great fucking band

 

Fiestas & Fiascos an all-timer.

 

Smokin weed and makin money!
