Every time I hear the intro I think about if I were sitting in a room and this song came on. "Hey a live AK3 track accoustic, oh its Clavicle I love that song!" shortly after: "Hey my wife's name is Jamie too!" and then, "Hey....I'm a Chicago police detective......shit"
It’s a full fender rig, very different from Dans usual Rig but still fits really well Edit: it’s the same amps people Like Mike Dirnt (Green Day) and Matt Freeman (Rancid) use
it's really cool to hear the little back story of the song. i used to listen to this song and i felt it described my situation with this one chick spot on. it came pretty close. thanks for the awesome vid
This was posted almost 10 years ago and still sounds great! Best to crank up the volume in your vehicle and it's like your own personal concert in there;)
yeah, i know that now. Since i made that comment 3 months ago, i 've joined a band that is somewhat punk (founding member was part of the 70s English punk beginnings) & now, i see punk as a style that has evolved... i can now recognise some traits that are unique to punk & right, they don't all have to sound the same. Can i ask you, do you think punk is becoming more popular?
ALREADY ARGUING?? JESUS CHRIST, WHY DOESNT EVERYONE JUST FUCKING REALIZE ALK3 IS EVERYTHING A BAND SHOULD BE?!?! THEY ARE LIKE EDGAR ALLAN POE MEETS PUNK ROCK. AMAZING, AND TRUELY BEAUTIFUL.
there's some words i just don't get.... what does he say? "i fell in love... i fell in lost with a waitress at ******* find out that her fiance was a chicago police detective, but i wrote "clavicle" for janie?
He said "I fell in love....I fell in LUST with a waitress at the local Diner." Basically he wanted to screw the waitress at a local diner he went to often.
"Alkaline Trio is an American punk rock band that formed in McHenry, Illinois, in 1996." This is the first sentence from Wikipedia... I have been an Alk3 fan for 3 years... I think I know a bit more about them. You're a close-minded idiot if you think they're not punk. Punk is a diverse genre. Sex pistols and the Clash are British punk. Alk3, Green Day, etc. is American punk. Sum 41 is Canadian punk... Point is, just because they dont sound exactly the same doesn't mean its not the same genre.
God bless the girl that broke Matt's heart. I don't think they would be the same if she hadn't.
oy, that's the most beautiful best way to look at a painful sad situation, hrm...smart man.
Morgan Cooley oy thanks mate

I never realized how sick this bass line is. Once again cant give enough credit to dan
It’s pretty simple but it’s perfect for the song!
What an amazing bass tone!

I have a habit of viewing this video everyday. Alk3 forever!

his names Derek Grant ,he's from a bunch of Chicago bands
Not all punk has to sound the same you know...
It's funny these versions are half step down in tuning which is why they sound way darker then the original

charlie
im pretty sure alkaline trio is a rap group guys get it right
1st
there's some words i just don't get.... what does he say?
"i fell in love... i fell in lost with a waitress at ******* find out that her fiance was a chicago police detective, but i wrote "clavicle" for janie?
He said "I fell in love....I fell in LUST with a waitress at the local Diner." Basically he wanted to screw the waitress at a local diner he went to often.
what's the next thing he says?
btw... thanks a lot :)
they started hanging out but then he found out she has a fiance who was a chicago police detective ;)
At a diner he "frequented" was what he was looking for
"....at a diner I used to frequent"

hahah alright bud. whatever you say since you clearly MUST be right....
Clavicles are sexy as hell. Besides, how else would we connect our shoulder to our sternum? Utilitarian and beautiful.....hmmmmmpppphhhh.....*snoring*
Alk3 is nowhere near indie... they are punk. look up any of their stuff; this is just a stripped-down acoustic version of the song.....
weird guitar
why does all ''indie'' rock sound the same?
Why doesn't Matt just shave his head? That combover is terrible. Otherwise he seems well preserved - great vocals.
ok, i looked and that is NOT punk. Ever heard of the Sex Pistols or the clash?
Alkaline Trio is an amazing band, but the sound on this recording is awful :(
