Isaac Brock used to shop at the grocery store I was a cashier at in Portland, Oregon in 2013-2014 and was also my neighbor, I miss him living in Portland and casually coming through my grocery line, it always made my month to see him once in a blue moon, wish I wasn't so starstruck and would have asked him more interesting things though, he is super smart and cool. One time he asked how my day was and I said, "I can't wait to be off work" and he responded, "Yeah, I've only been here 5 minute and I already can't wait to leave here too" LOL I laughed so hard, good news for people who love bad news :)
He is so genuine and adorable. You can see the moment of aware regret after that remark. Poor guy. ...He looks like an 8th grader here. Including those baby-butt-smooth cheeks☺️
Proud of someone who I've never met, but adore their music, for getting sober. Its no easy feat, beneath substance abuse is a lot of pain, many props to isaac 😊
I met Issac outside a show he was about to do and he was really humble, we offered him some acid and he said “Ha, no thank you, it doesn’t do anything to me anymore.”
That’s not humble. If he was humble, he’d spare the detail about his holier-than-thou tolerance to hallucinogens. He’s a prick about not being a prick.
I love he tells this story about how he almost killed someone in a drunk driving accident and went to jail for it and everyone in the comments is like "aww so cute chubby cheeks"
@@nitusa3694 any time you get behind the wheel after drinking and drive on a public road you almost kill someone. Driving under the influence is one of the most irresponsible and selfish things a person can do. I know all about it , had three duii’s .. thank god I didn’t hurt anyone but myself.
@@guaporeturns9472 Any time you drive you almost kill someone. That's the nature of machinery. You could just as easily be intoxicated with stress, exhaustion, or thinking about what you're gonna make for dinner. Sleepy drivers kill more people than drunk drivers every year. It's not to justify either it just happens to be true.
An amazing amount of retrospect here. He doesnt minimalize his role in it, doesnt try to dress it up, and freely admits to what he did as it happened. May we all be so understanding of our own faults and failures.
Well that went from light hearted “I’m drunk” to damn really eye opening and just “a tone of sadness” man thanks a lot I was avoiding that video for a good long while and when I was happy and clicked it ....nope ...wtf.

@@kvjackal7980 I’m not perfect either i hope it gets less intense for you with that tho I’ll be recording a few songs and post them it’s been forever since I’ve been to a show tho
I saw them I guess in the late 90s and he was so drunk that he was flailing around on the ground with a broken beer bottle and he got himself all cut up. Then they went back and shot pool and hung out. I am 100% certain that I was really high so I don’t have that great of a memory of it. They were nice though. It was a really crazy show though. Amazing but bloody.
Lmao so fucking glad someone made this comment. I'm so sick of these purists tripping over their own ego feeling the need to point out people only like famous people because they're famous. Like maybe they're famous cause they had something to offer and that's what people are interested it? Fucking duh?
"TheApatheticguy" You remind me of a virgin who spends too much time on Reddit. I think people appreciate honesty more than anything. Not people who lie to themselves and others about their moral fortitude by poking fun at people for being attracted to other human beings, or drinking.
@@TheApatheticGuy wow I actually forgot about this until randomly deciding to check my notifications. Sure enough, I agree with you. Not sure what was up my ass that day. Sorry about that Reddit virgin comment, you're probably alright. Also, that's a 8 year old picture of me. No longer rocking a bowl cut :^)
I have had such a crush on this man for a little over a decade now, despite our difference of opinions on most things. I love his candor and he’s such a wordsmith
There's a little fella runs into a public toilet in Johnson City, TN. Little fella looks to be around 55-60 years old and is as buck naked as a newborn duck. He starts screaming "Where's Belinda?!!" "WHERE'S BELINDA!!!???" Needless to say, the toilet empties itself quickly. I, being on the pot mid-excrement, just raise my feet in hopes he won't see me. I can see him through the big gaps in the shitter door. Wildest looking eyes I've ever seen. After about the 18th "WHERE'S BELINDA", the cops enter the scene. Coupla zaps later, the little ole fella is gone. I wipe up, step out, and continue my day.
Waited after a show in 01 and met Isaac in "hey be right back!" flash. He was leaving with the owner of a record shop down the street. He never came back. The rest of the band was super cool.
One of the most profound lyricists to date. If you disagree, read stuff from Building Something, This is a Long Drive and Lonesome Crowded, then think about it for a while.
That's actually not true. He went in for attempted murder because one of his friends got their thumb dislocated, and if you injur someone in organ while drunk it counts as attempted murder. The thing was, he wasn't the one that dislocated his friends thumb, but nevertheless, this had nothing to do with the DUI
He came to an after hours I ran once and was very very nice. He walked up and said I fuckin hate this place, but you’re doin a great job don’t change anything.
Lol. That dripping dead pan sarcasm is peppered throughout his song lyrics. Only the great writers & lyricists can be both poignant & eloquent in one line & then dripping with dead pan sarcasm the next. Dylan immediately comes to mind. He would get existential, philosophical & wax poetic in one line & then lighten up the mood again with some razer sharp sarcasm. Well I should say the Dylan of the late 60's through 70's. The stuff he's done after that is pretty bad. He no longer has that lyrical gift and instead basically spells out every meaning in his words, whereas before he used lots of slick metaphors & allegorical symbolism. So at least Brock hasn't lost that gift. Lol. Dylan basically turned into Elton John as a lyricist. So cliche & "on the nose" But unfortunately that's what most people want. They want it spelled out. Something like: "Baby I need u Yes baby come back to me Can't live without u Why won't u come back baby Ohhhhh baby, baby baby, etc , etc blah blah blah BARF!!!!
da-daga-da-DAAAAaaaaa-da-dum! Other people's lives are more interesting cuz they ain't mine! Everyone's afraid of their own lives, doo-daa-daa-DAAAA-da, if you could be anything you want I bet you'd be disappointed, am I right? Ah, such good work that has inspired my own :)

Dude an artist and a real person... crazy!!!
Isaac is from the Pacific northwest and I'm from SC...but he has more of a southern accent than I do
Haha I’m from sc also
A lot of people in the northwest have Midwest or southern accents it doesn't make any sense
I'm from SC also. And also got a dui charge for wrecking my van in oregon. No attempted murder for me though luckily.. and I beat the dui charge
SC here too. Lowcountry
He's originally from Montana. Maybe the reason why.
Imagine him and Conor oberst talking to each other
You just made my day
It instantly made me think of popeye meets bob dylan in that family guy episode
I was thinking the same thing! 🤣 They have to be long lost brothers.

god he looks so depressed

Josh Morgan he just got a drinking and driving wreck like two months agob
yea never again
(one time I saw him live and he was so drunk backstage he swallowed part of his broken tooth probably 2015 ish)
but yea never again

yeah was super elusive back in those day but he has had issues with crazy fans and drugs so yeah who can blame him?
he's just a guy
wait, was the finger dislocated in the car crash or was that a separate incident?
i got a dui and i was almost home....w/ only getting one hour of jail time and i felt like i was suffocating
I would go to jail for an hour to get out of so much shit
@Travis Edwards I always wonder how different jail is for females vs males. Did you have to put up with/avoid a lot of threats and violence?

I thought he was huffing nitrous behind the wheel, not drinking?
DUI can be multiple substances, not just alcohol.
True genius
In vino veritas

When I'm a rock star, I hope I don't do something that inspires ppl, or promotes good behavior in others.
