I know a lot of these comments are old, but these are some of the greatest guys - they played in our town and stayed in our house many times . I still love listening to their music and them being on Letterman was freaking amazing
Currently my Favorite band! I am astounded that they haven't received more recognition, but at the same time, i kind of enjoy being the only one in my town spreading the name of Deer Tick.
My ex girlfriend brought me to a deer tick show about 5 years ago in San Diego. I’m not sure where she heard of them but they were new to me. We had a long complicated relationship but I have never loved anyone so deeply on so many different levels. I guess that’s why I stuck around for 17 years. She took her own life last September and it still haunts me every day. When I got a notification that Deer Tick was playing a show in town, I figured I’d stop by RUclips and watch this video. Great band, great song… but oh so bitterswee
Saw these guys for 5 bucks on Saturday in Portsmouth NH. John McCauley, the lead singer, gashed his hand open towards the end of the set and had to hold his hand with a towel to stop the bleeding while he sang the last song of the night. I'm definitely a fan- gotta respect the man for playing through the pain!
I saw them in 2009 in a tiny coffeehouse in Jamestown, NY. There were about 40 people there hootin for them and they put on a SHOW. I was impressed by their passion, as well as the excellent playing, singing, and lyrics. They are going to become widely known.
I know the guitarist, Ian. He was one of my brother's best friends. I saw these guys a couple of weeks ago at the John Boyle O'Reilly Club in Springfield, Mass. They were so fucking awesome. They ARE THE BEST.
Yeah, it's crazy but I've not listened to them until the last couple days either. Everything going on with this song...instrumentally, lyrically and in the way he delivers it has had me going back to it and other tracks I have never heard, and there's not been a song done live on RUclips that I didn't play 2 or 3 times on repeat...so far I can't bring myself to stop and soak in the 10 or so I've put in a playlist. Other than what he did about a decade back with Dawes and Delta Spirit's front guys in folk rock super group Middle Brother, just about every song by Deer Tick is new to me. I knew they made music I liked and I kept keeping them in mind for some other time. Thankfully, this is the song that made me take notice...I was excited to hear more, expectation higher than usual. I'm more than impressed, as each listen, more than hoped, adds to the original sound I had hoped for. Anyone who loves Deer Tick should not pass on the collaboration album I mentioned. Both the album and band are called Middle Brother and "Million Dollar Bill", Blue Eyes and "Daydreaming" are great songs to start...but really every single track sounds better than you could expect to get out of most "super-group" made albums that usually are so over managed and under developed. Folk Rock gem imho.
Wow, this is great! I can hear a throwback to sounds of the 60s and 70s, but this is not copying it. I haven't been convinced lately by new bands, but this one did.
@man754 saw this guy at the seminole community center in niceville fl 5 or 6 years ago when he was on tour by himself. i remember thinking he was gonna go big one day. congrats!
Funny thing is...I used to see them out on the little porch outside of the Coffee Exchange on Wickendon Street in Providence having coffee and a smoke. I'm not sure what folks are doing here trying to plow them into the ground? This is a pretty solid piece by Deer Tick on the big, national stage that is Letterman and the endearing thing is that they aren't polished at all. Long live Providence Rhode Island! Keep the line moving boys!
Love the band. First saw them at Newport folk.. Then at Mogegan Sun Casino's Wolf Den. Looking forward to show at the Knickerbocker Cafe, RI with Joe Fletcher and the Wrong Reasons, another very good band. Deertick's lead singer is sarcastic and sassy, but their song writing and performance is solid.
Why is Letterman holding such an enormous CD? Do Deer Tick have their own 'I PAD' sized CD's or something? I can't keep up with all these crazy new technological developments.

They are cool guys. One show I was at, they just stood around in the lobby with us ticket holders, hanging out.
You know I've always wondered what would happen if Kurt Kobain, Bob Dylan, Gimli and my substitute math teacher got a band together.
Lol math teacher i love it!!
hahahahahahaha
Hahaha
I assume Chris is the math teacher? Lol
Currently my Favorite band! I am astounded that they haven't received more recognition, but at the same time, i kind of enjoy being the only one in my town spreading the name of Deer Tick.
I'm so glad they played Baltimore Blues

This brought tears to my eyes ♥️🙏🏽
I'm so so sorry. Yet happy for the memories you have with her.
A great example of an amazing vocalist who wouldn’t make it past the first round of American Idol
Im filming Deer Tick along with Middle Brother and Dawes tonight in Chicago at the Metro. Im fuckin stoked!

One of my favorite bands and songs, and still my favorite rendition of it a decade later
This band is simply amazing.
They got a sound that doesnt fit on tv, and I love it. Keepin it original

Such a greatly written song. Period.
From the Eastside to Galilee, Rhode Island is beaming with pride for DeerTick!!
Great debut!
How can you dislike this, they fucking killed it
"Let's do a ball of coke and then go play Letterman."
- Deer Tick, probably.
Lol John is so fucking high here hahaahha
U mean 8ball
@@no834 lol
Wow that’s sad

How could u not like Deertick. that voice is incredible
I'm from the future. John McCauley will perform with members of Nirvana. It will be awesome!!!
I don't know how i only JUST heard of these guys, but I did...and they are fuckin great. Can't wait to listen to more
Still watching??

Drummer doesn't suck......plus he's a very good singer.
clownin around is my favorite DT jam
I can't believe these guys aren't megastars
I really like this up tempo version
i love this version. lol. they are great live.
They killed this
band is awesome. favorite band at the moment along with diamond rugs
You rule so much for posting this so soon!!!!!
Go Deer Tick!!! Love you guys with all my heart!
Wow, this is great! I can hear a throwback to sounds of the 60s and 70s, but this is not copying it. I haven't been convinced lately by new bands, but this one did.
great piece of music!
It was Deer Ticks time!! Great performance and hopefully we will see many more of their performances on TV!!
solid music
Haters got to hate.... big dish of jello? They are really good. They are themselves and that is what makes them so good.
GOD BLESS DEER TICK!!!!!!!
They killed it here. Nice.
I only wish this song was longer. It's so great, but it deserves a nice spacey guitar section, or something.
saw them last night in Portland ME and they were great!
Yay for Deer Tick on TV!
awesome, went to high school with the drummer. He's grown quite a beard since I last saw him 6 years ago
saw this this Letterman last night. Totally dig this song
Anytime you can make Letterman go damn that was great....thats rather badass
Awesome
CONGRATS Deer Tick FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
Awesome song!
Just saw them last Friday in Providence for free. Great show and they played two encores.
TO ALL FANS OF DEER TICK IN WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I KNOW ALL OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS BAND PERSONALLY!!!!

just saw them in denver. so good.
killer tune. killer band.
great job chris! (and the rest of the band)
HELL YEAH! TV DEBUT! CONGRATS GUYZ!
amazing song. sick lyrics
Good Job, You guys were due for that show.
My new favourite band since 10 minutes ago ;)
This song and this performance are brilliant! How can this have just 119,000 views???
My best friends aunt was going out with some dude that knew a guy that was related to the singers cousin.
very good stuff
It's strange that they didn't play a song of the new album at the time
this was on my birthday : )
This band rocks. Come play a show in Edmonton!
honestly .. the best performance on letterman
Can't wait for the free show in Providence on July 8th
i cant believe it took them this long to get on t.v. i baught war elephant back in 2007 and war it out several times
check out their first album, Baltimore Blues No. 1
Yes.
My feelings exactly.
i like the spazzing in the guitar solo
I'm glad to say I'm from Providence
baltimore blues #1
Good on ya boys.... keep it up.
@TheUsersongs that song IS their older stuff... reworked a little... but that song was on their first album War Elephant...
that is my brother's friend!!!!!!! Ian on the right!!!
Deer Tick kicks ass!
Lol @ guitar player getting into it. I wish I had that courage in front of a crowd, let alone national television!
Jesus Christ on drums, Bob Dylan on guitar, Napoleon Dynamite on bass and Dan Auerbach's coke head younger brother on vocals. Joking the songs awesome
This is so accurate it's insane
lol
The Devil Makes Three
Bets comment ever
Play a show in Florida!
I saw them open for Dr. Dog @ Emos in Austin. They were kick ass, one of the members (which wasn't in this video) played keys and saxophone.
Robby Crowell
@dhide14 When they told him he'd get to have drumsticks in the band, he thought they were talking about a bucket of fucking chicken.
The way Letterman says "day-boo"
Is anybody else silently singing "Wounded Healer" while listening to this?
fuckin great. seeing them in march in brooklyn.
@j51162b Pity it doesn't sound like it; that would be something to hear!
They're still very good, though.
@BoulderfistInc I really like the song on Letterman last night but didnt catch the name of it, anybody know. thanks for any help
wow
Hah! Lead singer is my teacher's nephew. Badass.
mtv should play this sort of music it could help
@man754 saw this guy at the seminole community center in niceville fl 5 or 6 years ago when he was on tour by himself. i remember thinking he was gonna go big one day. congrats!

They remind me a lot of the band THE ANIMALS. Also a bad ass band
I wonder why they didn't play something off of their new album.
@robertwilkins Was that the night they played the Legion? I saw them the night before at Dickens and it was possibly my favorite show of Sled.
@friendlier
I work at that tiny coffee house =]
one of our best shows, along with The Rosewood Thieves, The Low Anthem, and Tartufi.
They'll be back on Letterman on Wednesday! 10/12/11
I agree. I kept hearing people compare these guys to the Replacements, and, really, they're not on the same level at all.
Nice. Like that stocky drummer feller. Real good.
It would seem great music forces you to think. That would explain the success of pop music.
Love the band. First saw them at Newport folk.. Then at Mogegan Sun Casino's Wolf Den.

@iluvmusicqwe
Those are not sunglasses.. They're BluBlockers!
Why is Letterman holding such an enormous CD?
Do Deer Tick have their own 'I PAD' sized CD's or something?
I can't keep up with all these crazy new technological developments.
"20 miles" on Jimmy Fallon, or Leno would be awesome
yes people its all been done before, the things u refer to are called influence and every artist has them........
