"Tight" is the opposite of what Pavement was conceived to be. I get what you mean, but Pavement are at their best when they're sloppy, missing their cues, and coming in early or late.
@@Josef_K99 They always seemed to be popular on the English tours. My theory is that they don't sound like English bands. Most British musicians are so mannered and precise. Pavement, on the other hand, is a very California type band and they're real slackers. Their style was to be so loose it was almost falling apart and only barely holding the songs together.
It's wonderful to see the spirit of the band back again. He was definitely going through the motion a dozen years ago, kinda wild how quick the time flies by!
I was there. It was such a special moment for me cos I don’t know anybody who really knows pavement and to be surrounded by all these people singing those lyrics together. Absolutely amazing time. It was also my birthday, which just capped it off
I will always remember this set because people kept trying to push past me to what they thought was an open oasis spot in the crowd only to discover it was a gated VIP area which baffled them and everyone. It shouldn't have existed honestly...wonder if they had water in there...
I had to leave this set thanks to the terrible organisation and overbooking by primavera for the same reasons as you, felt like I was about to faint! I was in a great spot near the front and centre too so F you primavera
I was there. Starving, dehydrated, burnt out, dropped my phone and broke it during gold soundz. Best night ever, so lucky to have been there. One of the best concerts I've attended.
Man, the moment they started playing Silent Kid and all of us the crowd started humming the notes. I fucking cried. I saw that same thing happened in their reunion in Coachella 2010 and I was convinced I would never get to experience that. Traveled all the way from Mexico and I am so glad all those magical moments were captured by the festival.
Way to ruin it, it’s a gig not a bloody football match. This singing the melody like a bunch of pissed darts fans is almost worse than the endless sea of iPhones in the air
Pavement was never like my favourite band but everytime I spend some time with them in my ears I have this strong feeling that im listening to the best band EVER. always.
Its sooooo good. I saw them twice here in Ireland and they didn't play it either night. There's so many songs I wish they played that I still haven't heard them do but fuck it, they are pulling so much from all over their catalogue its amazing. I never thought I would hear Lions/Linden or Shoot the Singer and now I have 😊
@@JayPhonomancerwas at the set. Perfect set with everyone around my age all singing along from start to finish. If they closed with filmore jive id probably lose it lol
I remember the exact moment in 2019 when I saw the announcement of Pavement reforming for Primavera Sound. I could not wait. Held onto my Primavera Sound ticket for 3 years. It felt like a pilgrimage to finally see my favourite band. Amazing gig! Muchas Gracias Primavera!
Dream come true, as a 27 year old from Venezuela it was my first time seeing them, honestly I would have never thought that I would have a chance to ever see them live. I expected them to sound kinda shitty because it was pretty much part of their image and sound, but oh my, did they prove me wrong, they sounded so tight. Easily my highlight from the festival and one of my favorite concerts ever!
Jesus they sound a lot tighter and in the groove than when they started this nostalgia tour in 2021. Good work, gentlemen. You’ve shaken the rust off. The world needs some good ole Pavement slack right now.
Im 50 saw em first at sonic youth dirty manchester at 18... fell in love immediately... dare i say it they were the band of the night! Malkmus' swagger was impressive!
@@kckstnd8 if you like this you'll never be uncool... they piss on the dross of today! They'll always be youthful and spry! Tell your kids they can't make you obsolete... not possible... the 90s ...pavement, nirvana... sonic youth... rage... Cyprus hill... unbeatable...the beasties... we were so lucky... a musical smorgasbord
They have never sounded this good or more of a band working together than this. The 2010 shows were Malkmus VS Pavement if that makes sense, this is all five operating on the same wavelength. I never ever thought I'd say this, but I think they are gonna do another record.
@@ianferris1065 They are one of the few bands I would trust to come back with a banger after such a long hiatus. With how good they sounded live on this tour, there could be some magic to be had there
Bob says that's not going to happen unless they make it without Stephen. I think he had a very negative experience on "Terror Twilight" and wants to leave that in the past, which I respect. But I miss his lyrics...nobody writes lyrics like Stephen.
Whoa the opening of Silence Kid reminded me of Big Star here. Never really heard it before... I think it's the guitar sound live. Maybe the opening line of Feel. I can't rememeber song details anymore, my head's too full of them. Anyway, I put Pavement on the same level as Big Star. Timeless albums and songs.
@@SnoopLazersnake Ha!! I know who you mean!! I was beside that guy for most of the show. He rescued my sunglasses when they got knocked to the ground!! He sure wanted to hear hear In the Mouth a Desert!!
What a beautiful set, thanks so much, i saw them in 2010 in Brazil, but these gig was awesome, other energy, i fall in love with this unique band, Pavement is one of my favourite bands of all time. ♥
I know it’s the poppy ‘hit’ or whatever, but ‘Cut Your Hair’ has always been and will always be my favourite. It’s so thick and joyful, and it’s perfect half way through the set like this-the crowd came even more alive and I had the opportunity to rush forward nearer towards the front. Everyone was screaming the words. I proceeded to fall to the floor playing the air guitar solo. One of the most magical moments of my life. Best gig ever.
I was there it was late in barca... they were ace ive seen every pavement tour since slanted... a fuggin awesome band best of the 90s and im a sonic youth pixies loving moosh... but pavement are my bag of poison everytime! I was 17 at slanted not even old enough to get in but boy did we mosh to summer babe!
Wonderful live performance and cool setlist. Still listening to Pavement now and then since 1991. Happy to hear songs from Watery Domestic EP. Loved how Steven sometimes add 70's psychedelia riffs into the songs, and enjoyed the evocation of Marquee Moon during Folk Jam.
This my year so much I’ve been wanting to Pavement o reunion for years..They were beyond awesome! I hope they put out a new album and tour. I seen them back in 95 and it was awesome
One of the best performances I’ve ever seen !!! No water and dangerous crowd , super paranoid on STRONG Barcelona weed I nearly left before this set . Thank god I didn’t , the paranoia wore off and enjoyed this show with everyone else . The whole crowd and band had a smile on their face for 1h45 straight ! Thank you Pavement
This is a beautiful video. I hope everyone who attended this concert knows how lucky they are. I last saw Pavement play the Auckland Town Hall in New Zealand on 1 March 2010. It was the best concert I have ever been to. My all-time favourite band!
Listening/watching this as a primer for the Friday night Chicago show and couldn't be more thrilled to see one of my all-time top 5 again. And they appear to be in top form. Saw them in '99 in Denver just prior to them packing it in. So excited! Thank you for the preview!
Que lista de temazoooooos Faltó Box Elder y Half a canyon, pero no me quejo! Inevitable no emocionarme, recuerdo cuando el joven de 15 que era yo en los noventas los descubrió Cómo crecemos todos! Gracias! Argentina porfavor!
Been a big Pavement fan and never got to see their first reunion (even though I was listening to them in college) this gig was memorable for me because after the previous band where you had to squeeze to the front there were nice gaps to get closer with this one, loved their set and been bumping Transport Is Arranged for weeks now 😊 Primavera was something else...
Lot of ads but happy n to see n hear a great band playing much bigger places on my phone. Double Door Chicago was alright! Saw them on the pager. Lol. Took Lucas Miles 1 hiter as we helped bring amps to there van. Justin or Lucas Miled had a great album him round 94 wicker park recorded!

Stephens voice never changes holy crap
true
very good point
He’s always been himself, why would his voice change
@@yourejovian Age, touring, natural wear and tear. The aging process effects all singers in some way, not a new thing. S.M is also not a 'technically good' vocalist and has to sing a bunch of very abrasive lines which makes it even more surprising. Plus he smoked etc.
Helps he barely sings. It works for him anyway.
The best concert I've ever attended and probably one of the happiest moments in my life.
Same
Yes
Yesss
Lucky duck. 👍
You are blessed!
wild how tight they still sound almost 30 years later, and genuinely awesome to see Malkmus enjoying playing with the band again.
fr tho, theyre on point
"Tight" is the opposite of what Pavement was conceived to be. I get what you mean, but Pavement are at their best when they're sloppy, missing their cues, and coming in early or late.
@@danielstoddart agreed, they've never been tight! and that's not a bad thing - it wasn't the point
@@Josef_K99 They always seemed to be popular on the English tours. My theory is that they don't sound like English bands. Most British musicians are so mannered and precise. Pavement, on the other hand, is a very California type band and they're real slackers. Their style was to be so loose it was almost falling apart and only barely holding the songs together.
It was the best thing about the gig. I was there on the night, very close and loving it. Gigs are infinitely better when the band is having fun.
They sound so incredible here, you can tell Malkmus actually cares this time. This version of Type Slowly is fantastic.
So true - half way thru Frontwards and I'm like - what?... Malkmus is actually singing it like he gives a shit. Whats goin on? Awesome band
“You can tell Malkmus actually cares this time.”
Agree. Just saw one of the SF shows - Type Slowly was a highlight.
Yeah was at one of the Seattle shows. He really seems into this tour. Everyone was great.
It's wonderful to see the spirit of the band back again. He was definitely going through the motion a dozen years ago, kinda wild how quick the time flies by!

Slanted and Enchanted is on my desert 🏜 discs. What an album
maybe you was that guy who rubbed up against me! love you bro! PAVEMENT are that band randomness and love abounds!
@@ronaldthomson9313 just yes ... when i was into slanted i had a sony walkman!
💚💚💚
Will always remember this set, mainly because I hadn't had any water for 7 hours. Thank you Primavera!
haha exactly the same, neither could I fill my bottle or even buy water. Reminded me of my army days
And it was totally worth it 🥰
I will always remember this set because people kept trying to push past me to what they thought was an open oasis spot in the crowd only to discover it was a gated VIP area which baffled them and everyone. It shouldn't have existed honestly...wonder if they had water in there...

me too
Travelled from Indonesia to see them. One of the happiest moment of my life
Anjir niat banget bang salut
It's very clear that Stephen actually wants to be in the room this time, such a joy, the first "real" reunion
I was there. Starving, dehydrated, burnt out, dropped my phone and broke it during gold soundz. Best night ever, so lucky to have been there. One of the best concerts I've attended.
Los verás en BBK este año?
Screaming along to Two States with all my mates was a genuine life highlight
Love slanted
FORTY! MILLION! DAGGERS!
Can't even describe how good it makes me feel to hear them playing Summer Babe in 2022.
Agree
Man, the moment they started playing Silent Kid and all of us the crowd started humming the notes. I fucking cried. I saw that same thing happened in their reunion in Coachella 2010 and I was convinced I would never get to experience that.

same here fella, i cried a lot at this concert
Way to ruin it, it’s a gig not a bloody football match. This singing the melody like a bunch of pissed darts fans is almost worse than the endless sea of iPhones in the air
I hope Stephen Malkmus reads this. Remember the mad pavement fan you bumped into at London Victoria tube station 1995? You changed my life.
This is the best Pavement has ever sounded live, without a doubt 😯
Pavement was never like my favourite band but everytime I spend some time with them in my ears I have this strong feeling that im listening to the best band EVER. always.
They mean the most out of most bands
I saw them in 1992 and my son went to this to see them 30 years later! I was so jealous!
THEY STARTED WITH FRONTWARDS?! My favorite Pavement song
Its sooooo good. I saw them twice here in Ireland and they didn't play it either night. There's so many songs I wish they played that I still haven't heard them do but fuck it, they are pulling so much from all over their catalogue its amazing. I never thought I would hear Lions/Linden or Shoot the Singer and now I have 😊
@@JayPhonomancer pavement has a really deep catalogue of songs to pick from so i dont blame them if they dont play all the favorites haha
@happensq For sure. The only constants in the setlist seem to be Cut Your Hair, Harness Your Hopes, Stereo, Shady Lane and Range Life
@@JayPhonomancerwas at the set. Perfect set with everyone around my age all singing along from start to finish. If they closed with filmore jive id probably lose it lol
travelled 3k miles for this 90 mins of music. greatest to ever do it
omg hi
traveled from Brazil to see these guys.
thanks for uploading one of the highlights of my life 🙏
❤❤❤
Eu também!
Eu também. E valeu pra caralho
Eu também! E valeu cada momento!
Mesma situação.
Realização de um sonho
lol I spent the rest of the festival randomly saying "WE SAW PAVEMENT"! thanks for uploading, truly amazing gig
Perhaps you will be randomly saying that to people in places forevermore. I know I would be.
@@lewistyler462 I mean probably, but I've already bought tickets for another show
@@sempremale Watching this gig makes me wish I bought tickets for the UK tour but they were around £50. Probably worth the money but still expensive.

steve wearing the silver jews shirts brings a tear to my eye
They've never sounded so good and it warms my heart to hear/see them play together again
I can’t believe we aren’t kids anymore.
Why are you reminding me of my old age? Lol 44 here and grew up with pavement dinosaur flaming lips beck etc
Shady lane
Im 50 saw em first at sonic youth dirty manchester at 18... fell in love immediately... dare i say it they were the band of the night! Malkmus' swagger was impressive!

I never ever thought I'd say this, but I think they are gonna do another record.
Thats a wild thought. Another record would be so awesome. I missed this, but I have tickets to see them in Oct.
agree - maybe Malkmus and Spiral Stairs have finally worked out their differences...

@@bernlin2000 there's always his stuff with the jicks, not as good as pavement but still great stuff
I'm glad seeing these old guys perform songs from the 90s is affecting everyone else as it is affecting me
it's so nice to see Malkmus smiling and playing
Legendary gig, felt magical to be a part of it. Thank you Primavera!
Great Silver Jews' tee on Steve West! ❤
Fui com minhas amigas do Brasil pra Barcelona só pra ver esse show. Chorei igual um bebê em Gold Soundz ❤❤❤
Cash para ir para Barcelona? Nofa, mas que puta boy ovomaltine, meu.
Que sonhooooooooooo ❤

I can't rememeber song details anymore, my head's too full of them. Anyway, I put Pavement on the same level as Big Star. Timeless albums and songs.
This was my favourite set of the festival. The atmosphere up front was incredible.
their voices remains the same it never grows old, thank you
wish the guys played In the Mouth a Desert but this is still awesome!
Please tell me you weren’t the guy up front who screamed for that in between every single damn song? 😂
pretty sure they planned on it for the encore but Tame Impala cut into their time...
Yeah, annoying everyone and then running away scared when the set got over.
@@SnoopLazersnake Ha!! I know who you mean!! I was beside that guy for most of the show. He rescued my sunglasses when they got knocked to the ground!! He sure wanted to hear hear In the Mouth a Desert!!
I’m that guy, fucking great setlist but that’s my fav song
What a show--hard to believe the love Spain has for Pavement, like wow.
ありがとうございます 。来年の来日公演が楽しみです。
Thank you Primavera Sound 2022. I’m looking forward to enjoying their live in Japan 2023.
3day's ago I saw their live at Tokyo Dome city hall in Japan.I enjoyed very much .My apple watch was indoor walking mood before I knew it.
What an absolute gem of a concert video to stumble upon! A truly unique band.
The best kind of dad rock. Pavement rules!
The OG Dad Rock
Foo Fighters is dad rock. This isn't.
@@AdemK47 Foo Fighters is the worst kind of dad rock. This isn’t.

Fantastic context and act. Appreciating what a great bassist Mark Ibold is!
Thank you for uploading the greatest moment in my life.
I hear a little bit of Marquee Moon in that version of Folk Jam!
Man I was so choked up in Witchi Tai To
One of the highlights of the whole festival. They were on fire.
I almost died at this concert. Really memorable. Thank you, Primavera!
Rebecca Cole, welcome to the band!
A wonderful show, in the Barcelona heat. Two States was one of the best moments of the show!
probably the best show ill ever attend - nice marquee moon , serpentine pad probably the song i was most excited to hear and we got it !!
One of the best gigs I've seen on youtube. Brilliant to watch. The indie Rolling Stones (I hope).
Spiral sounding great!
1:01:11 the shot of Stephen playing next to Bob and Steve on drums is epic!
What a beautiful set, thanks so much, i saw them in 2010 in Brazil, but these gig was awesome, other energy, i fall in love with this unique band, Pavement is one of my favourite bands of all time.
♥
Absolutely fantastic! Theyre the New Crazy Horse ...
Muchos Gracias for the Video!
Steve West wearing a Silver Jews t-shirt was legendary.

Had the pleasure of seeing them in a club in Dallas called Trees for the Terror Twilight tour. Will never forget it. They sound great here.
that little solo at the end of “two states” is so great
This my year so much I’ve been wanting to Pavement o reunion for years..They were beyond awesome! I hope they put out a new album and tour. I seen them back in 95 and it was awesome
Love, as always, from the UK
frontwards is my fav pavement song, i was there, the live version blows the studio one out of the water
I'm so jealous of people who got to hear Frontwards live. Probably my favourite Pavement song too, but there's a lot of contenders tbh 😊
I saw them last September at the Chicago theater! They are amazing! My favorite band by a landslide.
One of the best performances I’ve ever seen !!! No water and dangerous crowd , super paranoid on STRONG Barcelona weed I nearly left before this set . Thank god I didn’t , the paranoia wore off and enjoyed this show with everyone else . The whole crowd and band had a smile on their face for 1h45 straight !
Thank you Pavement
Glad you didn't miss this concert!!!
hahaha. glad it wore off
Lol those stupid paranoia trips off weed are awful. Rooted to the spot busting for a pee and unable to just friggin move😂
What was the deal with no water? Is this a regular thing at Primavera or did something go wrong?
This is a beautiful video. I hope everyone who attended this concert knows how lucky they are. I last saw Pavement play the Auckland Town Hall in New Zealand on 1 March 2010. It was the best concert I have ever been to. My all-time favourite band!
malk is obviously a total genius, but spiral really wrote an all-time banger with “kennel district” 🤘⚡️
Listening/watching this as a primer for the Friday night Chicago show and couldn't be more thrilled to see one of my all-time top 5 again. And they appear to be in top form. Saw them in '99 in Denver just prior to them packing it in. So excited! Thank you for the preview!
was there, it was awsome, just wished they played Here also.
Agradecido de haber estado ahi.
Finally... I've been able to see my favorite band ever for the first time live at PS22. And this stream is gold... THANKYOU!!!
Love you, guys!
Seen em Quonset RI lollapalooza 94. Astounding day
Glad I was alive to see this. Thanks for sharing.
WOW that's an amazing band and I saw these guys maybe 15 years ago in Sao Paulo!!! glad to see them still playing.
they look so happy ❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣
Please, come to Peru!
I Love Pavement
Wow Pavement reformed how did I miss this. Shame that we will never get a Silver Jews gig again
Cant believe it happened. So happy. I cried.
So glad Pavement are still playing don’t care if they don’t ever release anything else which they most likely won’t.
Heatwave shorty after Pavement played Primavera a coincidence? I think not-they brought it!
So Proud Of These Guys Coming Back Together :) Truly One Of The Greats! They Sound Amazing In This
Great show.
Que lista de temazoooooos
Faltó Box Elder y Half a canyon, pero no me quejo!
Inevitable no emocionarme, recuerdo cuando el joven de 15 que era yo en los noventas los descubrió
Cómo crecemos todos!
Gracias!
Argentina porfavor!
man i hope i can see them live someday, long live the dads of indie! :)
Wow, I did not know they are still around. I have all their music from the 90s still in my collection. Great stuff.
steve west with the silver jews shirt 💜
Saw Pavement in a movie theater in Sacto CA in the early 1990s. There are more people at this show than were living in Sacto at the time.
I think I met Malkmus at 2 am the next day after his show. I was too nervous to say hello. Just took a picture of him in the distance.
Been a big Pavement fan and never got to see their first reunion (even though I was listening to them in college) this gig was memorable for me because after the previous band where you had to squeeze to the front there were nice gaps to get closer with this one, loved their set and been bumping Transport Is Arranged for weeks now 😊 Primavera was something else...
These guys are absolute legends, cornerstone indie rock band.
Now I can't wait to see them in a couple months 😍
33:26 "Thank you J Mascis for that song"? Can someone explain that? I am a dinosaur jr and pavement fan but I didn't get it
Beautiful. Just missing carrot rope, here, and in the mouth of a desert 🥲
Box Elder!
Lot of ads but happy n to see n hear a great band playing much bigger places on my phone. Double Door Chicago was alright! Saw them on the pager. Lol. Took Lucas Miles 1 hiter as we helped bring amps to there van. Justin or Lucas Miled had a great album him round 94 wicker park recorded!
