Late to the party but I couldn't agree more! I saw this on HBO Reverb as a teen in the late 90s and I love it to this day. Am so grateful to have discovered this band (and Caustic Resin)
My mom took me to see them in San Diego, I think it was this show. Never heard the band before seeing them, was def for a few days after. But was also a life long fan been listening to them ever since. Going on 15 years love me some built to spill
Good fucking Lord!! Built To Spill was the best band ever back then, and still hold the record in my book. Wow, to be at this show. . . The original BTS.
My thought exactly. Such a shame, I have to beat friends (all musicians like myself, almost all junkies for modest mouse too and knowing they were largely treepeople and BTS Inspired) over the head endlessly for their owb good so they can go 6 months later. "You were right man, sorry I'm so stubborn" another month "they're probably one of my favorite bands now" quotes are direct from my best friend lol. Different style but I find most people who dig this stuff love em, just as underrated maybe more is pinback. Incredible band, more bass centric and less guitar but so good.
I will spend the rest of my life looking for a band as awesome as BTS, and will never find it. This is a sweet fucking video. Saw them play in Boston last year. Incredible show.
I remember watching this live in my college apartment. BTS Pavement and The Delusions on the bill. They were interviewing Elliott Smith and Lou Barlow on the show too
No way he just improv'd that solo like that I'm pretty sure that was improv considering how Doug usually does things but holy shit that was an amazing solo
I’m so spoiled that in these live performances Doug sacrifices the final verse (“this history lesson…”) for the solo jam. It’s my favorite part of the song actually, that soft quiet interlude after a frenetic couple minutes…wondering if there is a live show out there where he does combine the two
I feel exactly the same way! The ending they use on the studio album is my favorite part and really completes the song for me. As amazing as the live solo jam is, I'd love if they could transition back to that calming, hypnotic finish.
I am so glad you had the opportunity to show the world what you could do, all of you, especially Doug of course since he was the force of will and inspiration that led you all there. RIP my capable, humble friend and thank you for giving me the right to say, The best memories I have of you are moments when no one else was there. The world could use you now more than ever and I truly hope enough of you rubbed off on Brett, myself and the rest to make a difference that will help dissolve this illusion so we can finally see the way. I WILL keep my promise!
Saw em in Memphis about 10 years ago at the Young Ave Deli and they were fucking awesome. Heavy as fuck live. They even looked like a metal band. I mean, they didnt sound heavy like a metal band....heavy in the sense that every note they played carried a lot of weight. They kept that crowd movin!
FFFFFFFFFUCKKKKKKKKK 100 % agree. Ben Gibbard said in an interview that DCFC’s first few albums (particularly Something about Airplanes and We Have the Facts and We’re Voting Yes) were heavily influenced by Built to Spill.
@MeSh479 its similar in the sound of their old albums and yeah all MM cds are different and MM are good because the lyric and the singers are awesome.... a MM and BTS Cds would great!
@wyndorf03 Yeah i agree, the early ep's and 'This is a long drive...' all had that feel of being a stream of consciousness, but now 'good news' and 'we were dead' have more of a structured feel to them. Just didn't want you to outcast those from modest mouses sound
Hi, have you the performance on VHS or DVD? Or do you know where i could find it.. Would you share it ?? Cause i've been looking for this for a long time... Thanks,
i wonder what kind of distortion/OD Doug uses for rythim parts. I know he uses lace sensor pick-ups and i bet a velcro-like fuzz pedal for the solos (IE big muff). But since his rythim part sounds saturated yet organic...
I used to incessantly plan. Plan, plan, plan. Brought up hearing of this 'Plan'. Brought the plan up too much to some. :/ Got me nowhere. Nowhere I tell you!!! Takes two, or more, to implement the 'Plan'...So now I say: "Fuck the plan", and just listen to the beauty of the perfectly unplanned plan they call Built to Spill...*-*
Watched this on HBO when it aired originally. It instantly changed my musical taste and lots more
Late to the party but I couldn't agree more! I saw this on HBO Reverb as a teen in the late 90s and I love it to this day. Am so grateful to have discovered this band (and Caustic Resin)
One of the greatest solos ever. Every single note so beautiful.
i've seen close to 1,000 concerts and Doug is still one of the best guitarists i've been lucky enough to see live very underated
@@marcusfoto how many years did close to 1000 concerts take? 20 years at least, right?
@@hayleyb467 yes over 20 years... I started seeing shows when I was 16 and I'm now 42
@@marcusfoto badass! I'm the same age & have been to roughly 300 concerts. STRFKR tops my wish list. Ever seen Phish?
@@hayleyb467 yea I've seen Ph 60 times most of any band, BTS I've seen 5-6times I think
Sometimes I am glad I discover great bands in my mid-twenties. If I had sooner, I just wouldn't have been able to comprehend its greatness.
Every single note in that solo is absolutely perfect
Randomly heard this song while at a pizza place. One of the best random music discoveries ever.
I heard it on a NME compilation CD I got one time and was instantly hooked!
Flipping amazing. My dad used to play basketball with the singer at the ymca in Boise lol
Yup, Doug is a huge basketball fan. He's kind of known for playing a lot of games around Boise.
This is the song you hear while you descend to heaven!!
I saw them in Chicago in 2012 and I almost fainted so doug gave me his set list. They are our gems!
Doug and this lineup of BTS melted brains. Damn I miss that!!
My mom took me to see them in San Diego, I think it was this show. Never heard the band before seeing them, was def for a few days after. But was also a life long fan been listening to them ever since. Going on 15 years love me some built to spill
This was filmed in NY @Irving Plaza
So awesome of your mom! Give her a big hug for that one
holyyyyy shit
just discovered them while listenin to pavement...
damn, great upload dude
Me too!
Pavement is diet built to spill and modest mouse is off brand built to spill (all 3 are good bands)
back to when I was young and happy
Good fucking Lord!! Built To Spill was the best band ever back then, and still hold the record in my book. Wow, to be at this show. . . The original BTS.
THE most underrated band ever

I didn't realize these guys jammed like this live. It's really great
The way I describe this band too my friends is by telling them that BTS is basically the widespread panic of 90's indie rock
Robert R. Dude...... I love this
Those Washington bands were natural jam bands, man. Good times for music.
no no no no no no Not WSP could not be further from them
@@fuzzydunlop7928 Idaho! Who knew?
I will spend the rest of my life looking for a band as awesome as BTS, and will never find it. This is a sweet fucking video. Saw them play in Boston last year. Incredible show.
Modest Mouse
Pavement
Alex G
that k pop band?
@@resmarted no, Alex Gianascoli. Look him up. He opened for BTS a few years back.
I remember watching this live in my college apartment. BTS Pavement and The Delusions on the bill. They were interviewing Elliott Smith and Lou Barlow on the show too
Man Reverb was a great show. I discovered GBV and BTS because if this is show, two of my lifelong favorite bands.
That solo changed my life.
No way he just improv'd that solo like that
I'm pretty sure that was improv considering how Doug usually does things but holy shit that was an amazing solo
I just found out about these guys. I've had to listen to this song so many times, it's undeniably very catchy/rockin/groovin.
I’m so spoiled that in these live performances Doug sacrifices the final verse (“this history lesson…”) for the solo jam. It’s my favorite part of the song actually, that soft quiet interlude after a frenetic couple minutes…wondering if there is a live show out there where he does combine the two

Love this song. Gives me goosebumps
UNBELIEVABLE. 1000 thumbs up.
This is the version that is the first track from their Built to Spill live album
So triumphant sounding.
Absolutley brilliant!!!
one of the best solo in the history

thank you so much for posting all this. i've wanted to see these pavement/built to spill performances for years.
i love how he uses feedback SO MUUCH
Thank you for uploading this

They still put on a great show too! Been a great live band since the beginning
I love the bass playing
Amazing❤
Now THIS is music.
1:43 goosebumps
WHERE WAS I IN 1999!!!!!fuuck!
+driver valentine I had to be talked into going to see them back then and I still thank that friend for making me go
My absolute favorite Doug guitar solo here. Glad this finally made it to youtube. Thanks a ton for the upload!
Thanks for uploading! I've been looking for the rest of this show
Thanks lads! So good!!
Love
Captures the 90s flashback euphoria
who disliked this? jeez.
Good shit!
goddamn this was BTS at their prime.
MOdest Mouse and BtS are equally great they both sound similar in a way but every modest mouse Cd sounds different
Nice solo , BTS Keep it like a secret is the best album!
That's how you do it mother brothers
Doug, sir you are the shit
this song reminds me of You Can Play These Songs With Chords
FFFFFFFFFUCKKKKKKKKK 100 % agree. Ben Gibbard said in an interview that DCFC’s first few albums (particularly Something about Airplanes and We Have the Facts and We’re Voting Yes) were heavily influenced by Built to Spill.
best music show HBO Time Warner ever produced was Reverb, this performance is proof positive
fuck man, this brings me back. Good shit
marc johnson
The remedy cannot be found..... because it's so well hidden!
I really want a Stratocaster Plus, if they all sing like that! But, somehow I think it’s all in Doug’s fingers.
I love both bands but i think its the fact that MM isnt as tight and structured at BTS that makes me love them more. Much more exciting and pure.
Holy shit!
How was this 14 yeas ago? These guys should've been a lot bigger in the 90's. But I'm kind of glad they weren't.
Some people can’t handle Doug’s singing
BTS was Modest Mouse's Mystical Guide
@MeSh479 its similar in the sound of their old albums and yeah all MM cds are different and MM are good because the lyric and the singers are awesome.... a MM and BTS Cds would great!
@wyndorf03 Yeah i agree, the early ep's and 'This is a long drive...' all had that feel of being a stream of consciousness, but now 'good news' and 'we were dead' have more of a structured feel to them. Just didn't want you to outcast those from modest mouses sound
still in their prime
they still are
@@hayleyb467 yeah
Precision.
wish i had hbo back in 99
what's it matter if it does sound similar there is footage of them at the same show covering each other's songs their both fucking legends
I just think he meant the squeeling sound where Jim has the slide over the strings. Otherwise, it sounds absolutely nothing like Mechanical Birds...
ZERO DISLIKES!!!
Humanity proves itself worthy of my company at times. Good look.
❤️
Hi, have you the performance on VHS or DVD? Or do you know where i could find it.. Would you share it ?? Cause i've been looking for this for a long time... Thanks,
Yann Bouillet i have a vhs want a copy?
@@scottmolloy2345 I do, pretty please
Doug is a little special, but Built to Spill is in my top 10 of all time. They need to get the whole band back together.
The Dugster!
Sick. Just fucking sick.
i wonder what kind of distortion/OD Doug uses for rythim parts. I know he uses lace sensor pick-ups and i bet a velcro-like fuzz pedal for the solos (IE big muff). But since his rythim part sounds saturated yet organic...
Daddy O overdrive during this time, could be a big muff too
sounds like a skateboard ender song..last part ;))
do you know where i can get the vid of this entire live show?
AMOEBA REPERZEEEEEEEENNNTTTT !!!
bret nelson is rocking an amoeba shirt.
Dude there are plenty of structured modest mouse songs
I call this Coming-of-Age Music because it'd make a great fit in a teen/young-adult Coming-of-Age movie.
Make it happen
Hayley B thanks for saying that. I actually write screenplays.

You best be joking
Trust in the Lord JESUS CHRIST with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Trust JESUS CHRIST, make Him the Lord of your life !
Fuck you.
I love this band but they look pretty boring in this video
