haha, that is great. thanks for that.

seafood and punk rock.

Hahaha. I love how it zooms out and he's randomly holding a guitar. That was unexpected, but somehow inevitable.

raaad. i love it

Is that ...Thurston's place? I remember seeing Byron Coley at the exact same place in the Murray Street Doc. Where is that?

"i only eat squid!"

"you like Hell?"

thurston doing watt's voice was mildly jarring.

Haha, Watt doesn't even talk like that either, so whats he on about?

"Ya, I know him, he saw Voidoid! 100 times!"

Haha he sounded like the cockroach guy from Men In Black.

Northampton, MA. Byron lives near there too, since his daughter and Coco rock out together. Holy damn do I wish I had that many records.

The best part of it was the "all I eat is squid". Thurston's Watt voice sounds more like someone off the Sopranos.

I gotta say, the best youtube vid is Thurston playing at the Montague Bookmill because i was there last week.[/random]

I am impressed by his massive vinyl collection in the background


That has to be 5 000 bucks worth!

yeah, people always like to film thurston in front of his records for documentaries. I never noticed he has them all in plastic sleeves though. that's crazy, i could never do that-- they're so fussy!

I had to turn my volume all the way up to hear that, there is way too much bass on it. Thanks though. His impression of Mike's voice is amusing.

Anyone else think Thurston sounds a lot different when talking on stage than when in interviews?

Yeah, he does. He affects a deeper more ominous sounding sparser voice during stage banter.

He does that when he's sexually harassing me, too.

I'm not touching myself right now (oh yes I am).

It hurts! It hurts!

Yeah. During interviews I have to turn my speakers all weird to actually hear and understand him and he sounds different.

this is great.. I like how Thurston is bending the strings .. seafood & punk rock.. Mike Watt is the nicest guy, I got to meet him at a little coffee shop in Pedro, he will be playing there again August 4th I think ... if I go I'm going to ask him if he likes seafood, he told me about going boating, he was going the next morning after the show before he headed off to Europe again..

Yeah I saw that. I didn't click on the YouTube link but it's a deleted scene from the Minutemen documentary We Jam Econo. If I see Sonic Youth at the Avalon in Boston, I'm want to shout to Thurston at the top of my loungs "You saw Voidoids a HUNDRED TIMES!?"

You should go up to Thurston with a friend and introduce him like that. Shake his hand, then turn to your friend and say, "Ya this is the guy I was telling you about,. He saw Voidoid 100 times."

Great clip. Seafood and punk rock

Very enjoyable. Thanks. That's one of the biggest private record collections I've ever seen. Wow!

ha ha ha very funny Mike Watt is a very nice guy.
