I once met Dwyer in hospital, he was having the Roland space echo implanted in his chest and a couple of xlr sockets and a 13 amp plug permantly implanted upon his person. Pretty cool guy.
эй, если у тебя будет время проверить живую сессию, которую я сделал ruclips.net/video/81KmJ9wfHTU/видео.html
And an aluminum guitar neck grafted to his arm.
ripperdoc
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I heard he got a Fuzz War circuit implanted in his brain as well!
I met John Dwyer once, it was the craziest thing. I was at Sam Ash, looking for some new strings, and I saw him walk through the doors. I tried to say I was a huge fan, and was looking to ask for maybe a selfie too, but he just ignored me and walked straight to the microphone department and started testing each mic to see which best fit into his mouth. Pretty cool guy anyways.
These stories always cracks me up
epic LoL
I remember meeting John, i almost stomped him. The man's so tiny, he's like 10 inches tall max. Then he sat on the table and we drank some beer. He drank out of a bottle cap, because cups are too big for this little man. It was hilarious.
oh sees police I have a picture with him from a couple years back and he is around my height ~6’3.
...Yhorm? is that you?
I ran into him at the Panda Bear show in Highland Park. I was chillin by the merch table and I looked up and there he was, told him I was a fan and was looking forward to the next album. He was cool, smiled and thank you and proceeded on his way. 10/10 would say hi to again.
Did you know that John Dwyer is only 10 inches tall? I once met John at a bar in Boston and honestly I almost stepped on the man. What a great guy.
Horst an average, every short person I met, are fun in real life
@@MANDOFITLIFESTYLE26 hes actually tall 😂
Nick Alfonso im so confused by this I see people saying he’s short all the time , how tall is this man lol
@@harrybunker2975 Yeah he's at least 12 inches tall
10 inches? More like 7 or 8 inches
John Dwyer is literally the youngest man alive. you've never actually seen a younger person. ever.
cmz8706 I'm 22 years old and I want half the energy he has with 45
Hes boutta be 19 right?
What about Chris D'elia?

Keep doing things to boost your metabolism and you will have major energy into middle age.
i'm still physically recovering from their show half a year ago
I don't think my neck will be the same ever again
god the last show fucked up my eardrums for almost a month
Ha ha! Their show near me a few years back was the first at which I’d crowd-surfed in over a decade - and, as God is my witness, once they come through town again, it won’t have been my last! 🤘🏼❤️🕺🏼
@@danopticon True story from the Buenos Aires show. This dude was crowd surfing like a maniac, clearly high on something - uppers, no doubt. He must've jumped on the stage like 15 times. Security tried to get him off, but John Dwyer was like "The fuck you doin'? Let the kid have his fun!"
By the end, the dude had gotten so wild that he was kicking and punching us on his way down. People started "returning" the shows off appreciation to let him know that this was unacceptable behavior. Once the dude got up on stage, flailing like a maniac, for the 16th time, I looked into the eyes of the other people at the front. We nodded in unspoken agreement. The guy leaped off the stage as we all opened up like ants responding to fire. He kersplatted in the center of the empty space like a cartoon, bending his neck kinda funny. I worried for a second.
The crazy, drug-addled sonovabitch just got up and kept going. He didn't try to crowd surf after that.
What a fucking show.
bloodnchocolate YES! I was there too and it was a fucking rip roarer!
"John Dwyer wearing pants" the garage-rock equivalent of "Matt Pike wearing a shirt".
thats...scarily accurate
This is so true.
@@idiosyncraticmushroom3030 yea he NAILED that.
@@chrisjacob1446 definetly
Biffy Clyro wearing shirts
John is gonna need a back brace at some point from carrying rock and roll as a genre for so long now
My son turned me on to these guys and we went to see them a few months ago - and it was a blast. The drummers are beasts. It was two hours of full on, non stop rocking - without pause. The place was going nuts.
Yea... Seen them last year, came on stage earlier than planned after the support band had finished - played non stop never slacking or dropping energy continuing until the house lights came on ...
I hope they come through Seattle again. Dang!!
cool dad and son
So are we just not going to mention that John is wearing pants?
Blake Griffin and glasses ?!
@@Thee_Attic but he ate his pick so it balances out.
OH SHIT
Apparantly he has facial hair too.
It's the next step in his ohseesvolution.
Perfect amount of time to eat one entire pizza. Neat.
30 mins? I take 5
Noice!
Toppings? Let's get married
Girls like a guy who likes to eat^
Depends on the size of the pizza....
Legend has it, John's SG used to be cherry red but he plays it so intensely-squeezing every bit of beauty and passion out of it. And it is now a hollow shell that is honored to serve the rest of it's days with John.
Thee oh sees are kinda like king gizz's older uncle who is drunk and high on coke
Lmfao yea
Nailed it!
this band brought a lot of color into my gray life. I love em to death for it
Same here brotha
nice words♡
ah fuck, same, man
I have never felt cooler than when I listen to Thee Oh Sees, I know what you mean.
Agreed
Watch hungry boy John eat his guitar pick at 24:14
Hungry Hungry Johnboys new from Hasbro
I had no idea that John Dwyer was 10 inches tall until recently. You guys were right; literally 10 imperial inches. I just used a semicolon - and heck I'll admit it - I did not know that human bodies could sustain themselves at sizes smaller than 2 or 3 feet. I am sorry to everyone.

Lol so fucking true.
And a long sleeve
And glasses
Winter clothes
And not one of his two outfits
The night this video came out, my friends and I were getting home from a night of drinking at a house show at our college. I insisted on watching the whole session while we all sat on the couch. My friend watched half of the first song and had to run to the bathroom to vomit. Such a fucking epic session.
Nice
elon musk on the drums puttin in work
I had the same thought haha
I thought the same too! lol
Rob Schneider did well post-acting
Along with Henry Cavill from Mission Impossible
i thought perhaps Elon & James Spader's lovechild 🤔
Oh Sees are if your dad's band was actually really good.
In the other hand, if it's me and your granny on bongos, then it's The Fall :p
xDD
Oh wow hipster comedy
John's an ex-meth-addict. He's the opposite of a dad.
Truer/hurtful words have never been spoken!
The Face Stabber material is god-like.
So true. Its my go to album at the minute.
M M m ?
Memberi peluang yang. Lpoll .
of course the dude with the volta avatar would say that (not that you're wrong lol)
it's grown on me a lot. still not my favorite Oh Sees album, but a great one.
oh god its my latest LP. There is a wormhole jn the gatefold, so pack a rucksack
Dwyer makes me feel more comfortable about my age because the oh sees are like 20 years old and he looks the same
he also looked like a dork in his early 20s he proves that its never to late to become rad
RegularDude I’ve never been able to find a picture of younger Dwyer
Proper question for John Dwyer: So how do you walk on water?
Ring mod on the end of snickersnee is amazing. Also the reason they took so long with this upload is cause they had to resize him in post (hes only 8 inches tall)
This is a bold faced lie. John is 10 inches tall.
I feel like one of the things that makes Dwyer and Co's music so great is that it gives their fans, who I've found are usually nerdy stoners suffering from self-inflicted isolation like myself, a feeling of intensity that radiates coolness that isn't actually cool by any common standard but only by its unashamed strangeness that wedges itself right in between familiar and unknown. They aren't the only ones that can do that, though its not common. I think it just simply takes not paying any mind to the people who would laugh at you when you express yourself to the fullest, people latch on to that especially when it is an expression that you can relate to either by taste or canon. That shit gives me hope
Beautifully worded few bands have given me the same feeling
Damnit dude! You had to go and lift the veil, eh? Had me analyzing the music I listen too. KGATLW, Sleep, Ghost, MF Doom, Aesop Rock etc...I think these bands all fit that bill. Perhaps Ghost not so much just because people have a hard time getting used to the image. (too far towards the unknown.)
DcMango the new ghost stuff really sucks and just sounds like radio garbage tbh
I will tell you what a lady told me in LA, "oh just go start a band"
Rush were very much this experience for 80s kids stuck between the bright lights and the mass production zone
ive got a funny story actually. I was in the airport for a flight from France to Germany, right about to board the plane when I saw in the line in front of me the legend himself, John Dwyer. I told him I was a big fan and asked for a selfie (he looked at me like he didn't know what i was talking about hahaha) and then y'know continued waiting in line as usual. He started causing abit of a ruckus when he was about to go on though. He brought WAY too many suitcases, all completely full too so they were heavy. The woman there tried her best to handle the situation as John loudly scolded her for "trying to rid him of his pedals" and "belittling his musical greatness". Eventually she just let him pass through (after about 5 minutes) and the line continued as usual. On the plane he pulled out a generator which he connected his amp to and started playing the same riff for the whole flight, putting it through every pedal he had. Pretty cool guy.
We always love a good generator powered live show on the plane. One time I was on a train ride from seattle to victoria and john and the boys were packing their gear in. Well the conductor got mad because he wanted John's Music Man 210 HD amp because his father owned one and he believed it was his birthright. Well John simply plugged his gear into his portable phone charger and played the intro to enter sandman twice and then he put his stuff away and left as the conductor peed himself.
YES
what a genius.
😹
i cant tell if that story is supposed to make him feel bad or not *shurgs*
Best band on Earth. Maybe even more.

Me and my upstairs neighbor had a bloody fistfight with eachother to this
EVERYBODY GANSTA
TILL JOHN STARTS BLOWIN'
Seba Zabala top tier comment right here
cant believe they snuck in some Encrypted Bounce at the end of Henchlock
I'm just hearing it now. Fantastic!
baws that was fantastic hahaha
Best part !
yeah my brain melted in that point
They can’t ever not end with encrypted bounce!
Best thing I could ever wake up to on a Friday morning!!!!
KEXP is to my generation what the Fillmore was to the Hippies.
Astute observation ♡
Accurate af
I love that statement. Alot. 100.
Give it up for Pablo Yescobar on drums
1234bmt Pablo and Elon musk on second drums
Lol!
I met John at a Bed, Bath and Beyond in Duluth, Minnesota. He spent his whole time in the Beyond.........
2:17 cheryl out of nowhere just going insane on the keyboards
thanks, this made me lol
hahaha YES
Go Cheryl go!
Ive watched this almost every day since I saw your comment and I laugh every time I see Cheryl on the keys. Thank you
Pretty sure I was the guy he was talking about when I saw the birthday cupcake come on stage(with a shot of whiskey) it was my lady’s bday too so I was trippin out when I saw it, and I got her to crowd surf for her first time in 30 years!!! Nothing compares to Oh Sees...best band in this universe!
John Dwyer might be the single most inventive rock guitarist of his generation.
His guitar tone is sexy as hell
Simon Johansen might be?
Back in the day I used to tell a friend of mine the reason I prefer Thee Oh Sees live to Ty Segal is that John Dwyer has his tones down to perfection while Segal kind of didn't (at least back then).
@@dannyapeshit just saw ty play a bean for the first time - happy to report he has finally nailed the tone. Monstrous
@@low-charge He definitely has developed a tone now. It's rich and velvety. I love it.
I like how Elon Musk and Benicio del Toro plays drums in this band.
Finally, been waiting so long for this. Thank you KEXP!
Love Mr. Elevator playing keys for them. Fantastic touch.
Matt Cho i thought nobody could notice it! But yeah Mr. Elevator!
HE DROPPED AN ALBUM TODAY
No way!
@@sSmOkeBLuNtSs yeah, its amazing
@@ledzeppelinfan1001 thats good news sir
This version of Henchlock kicks ass!
This whole band kicks ass! So great to hear them again on KEXP.
that transition into the Encrypted Bounce finish was a nice touch🔥
Oh sees, mas grande que tigres
Jajajajaj
sin pedos
Indiscutible!!
Tigres el equipo de fútbol? XD
@@dantediaz8157 sincho jaj
You might be cool, but you'll never be as cool as John Dwyer playing a sampler with his hand in his pocket 0:48
Dwyer is a God
The Oh Sees are the only humans able to communicate with Aliens.
The breakdown at the end of snickersee is so different here - its brighter and kinda happy next to the album one.
Yeah, their newer songs seem much more refined.
Chris yeah dude it’s something with the bass line and riff that John plays that’s significantly different
Gotcha - live here they do that ring mod riff in key with the song- F major. My ear tells me that the studio ring mod part happens in F# major, so it sounds kind of spooky juxtaposed next to the regular bassline going between F/Eb
@@ianmcgregor2543 this guy's got it ^^
It seems Dan has lost significant amount of weight playing with John, best exercise ever
watch?v=mBiKTVgE1SI
ciodenz why are you doing this
Discovered this band here on KEXP years ago, so happy to see them again. Sick band!
Discovered them today. Was blind but now I see.
Wow, he looks a lot taller on camera. When I met him he was only up to about my shin.
It's edited :)
I saw them in Manchester a couple of weeks ago, was probably the best gig I've ever been to (Sorry KG!). Both drummers came out into the crowd and stood right next to me for the opening band, I tried so hard not to fangirl too much haha
you think john has midnight cravings for microphone?
John is the best living front man in rock
The interviewer is really good, keeps the energy going.
Szk1312 I have a special place in my heart reserved for Cheryl, but yes he did a great job keeping up the pace while also goofing around with John, really fun interview.
Troy does the Afternoon Show on KEXP every week. He plays my requests sometimes even. You go Troy!! I love KEXP! Go to KEXP.ORG right now and give them money for enjoying this.
Fucking rad that I can actually hear the synths for once!!!!
It is really hard to hear in person huh
Dear KEXP.....please....i am begging on my knees....release this performance and Slowdive as a RSD....pure gold with diamonds.
I now see the truth. Gizzard is a oc's cover band
Hellman's stache game is on point!
Yet to really get into all this band's songs but that first track is an absolute monster 👹
You got the brother. The drummers kill it, the synth, John absolutely smashing it... base keeps it in check. These live versions are the absolute nuts.
He's 45? He look 30 at most.
Music reminds me of when Kenny cheesin out on south park
It reminds me of Can and Neu!.
I will be listening to these guys until I'm old, wrinkly and deaf
All I can say is this: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS
we need a Cheryl interview with Black Midi
Okay Matt from black midi
Faboolean 😉🤫
These mf’s went straight to encrypted bounce without skipping a beat 30:06
They went into Encrypted Bounce wayyy before the lyrics lol
Man when he started playing that cordless vacuum during the last song that was mental
Met John a few years back at a carwash. Talked to him about the band and all that, really cool guy. Only weird thing is how fucking short he is, man. I'm like 5'8" and I had to crouch down just to talk to him.
Of course this drops right when I’m in the middle of a timed test, saw it literally as I was going to set my phone to “do not disturb” been waiting on this since they performed in October
Waiting for a Protean Threat Live KEXP as this is from Facestabber which KIINDA left me cold ..save for a few jams. Buy I do prefer their less Rock-ey slower pysch. sounds of OCS' salad days..their first album and 6 or so that followed won me over no matter what path or journey/excusrsions this band went on/took..Hemchclock has hints of their older sound..Still love them tho..nice to see they added a keyboardist...Dwyer playing more lead axe, the drummers compliment each other better then Pavement or other two/1 n 1/2- drummer-bands go..Nostanovich was a great Psych man for Them tho..but that's a whole 'nuther thread..OCS during Quarantine/Covid is So Freeing...I/U(?) feel like ur at a bonfire moshpit on the beach most the time..Glad that- long gone r their amphetamine-ridden SF days.. altho that era's slower tempo albums I liked the Most..They never cease to amaze..🤟🤘👌👍❤️😷🎶👋
I saw Sound Garden open for Voivod once and Chris Cornell stood right by me and watched the whole Voivod show.
He's one with the guitar
Ok, I'm awake now.
"Lock down and record" 😓
John has to be the most likeable person I can think of!
I met John at the belly up in Solana Beach, CA. Literally the nicest guy in the world. I bought some records, shook his hand and he recognized me and talked to me shortly after the set. We had a beer, they packed up and I'll never forget how chill he was. We did t talk about music or how great of a band they are. We just shot the Shit and he actually was interested in the hat was going on in my life instead of trying to rush out and flee from over packed room.
I hate bands with 2 drummers & bands with a cheap lo-fi sound, until now. This isn't just noise with 2 drummers always playing the same part. One plays the ride & one plays the floor tom on one song. The guitarist, bassist, & keyboard player obviously have ability to play with technical skill, & aren't just hacks making noise with instruments like so many of these trendy kind of bands do.
adam brown love the two drummer concept but i’ve noticed these fine fellas play the exact thing like 90% of the time so, hard to understand the point. Tortoise does it very well...
@@chinmeysway You can't see them 90% of the time in the same shot. I said on one song because I could see them both. Ok. I hate this band. Now are you happy?
One time I was at Wuxtry records in Athens, and wouldn’t you know it John Dwyer walked in. He came in and grabbed all of the Thee Oh Sees records and just smelled them before looking around and swapping them out for cardboard copies of the album sleeves. pretty cool guy
Tomas is an absolute Wizard on the keys,oh my goodness!
Dwyer is great but that Keys player is on another level
Henchlock is awesome live, can't wait to see them live.
Got to see them in 2010 with his other line-up. The last song of the set was 'Warm Slime'. It melted the faces off of everyone there.
I clicked on the video by mistake, never heard of the band before. Now I'm a huge fan. These guys are killing it
you've stumbled upon maybe the best rock band of the last decade+ that most people don't know about. welcome.
jimmy fallon on drums
I love the way Dwyer animates the guitar like in the intro of the last song. That's why he's a real life loony toon, he's painting ears with animation.
Recorded in early October??? Why am I just seeing it now? I f'ing love this band!
John just wants to be cool. ..what a great man..I love all his music. Damaged Bug is pure headphone madness
glad to see them branch out into synth stuff more now a day, merging Damaged Bug sounds, which are some of my favorite music sounds ever really.
Greatest thing to wake up too
Yes
lmao John definitely microdoses
he’s done a lot more than that lmao
Guy did so much speed for so long he has become speed
Wackalackin _ THIS IS SEX
he defo a speed up dude
i think he just... doses
Anyone who thinks these guys are too weird probably don't know what creativity looks like.
that myxolydian scale at 24:15 was cool. changed the mood some (sorry if im wrong)
odiumimbues sounds like Dorian to me
@@jamesdoctor8079 the scale was actually at 24:10 .. its very brief is dorian a lot like myxolydian?
ya its myxo. love that part as well
The song at 15:10 has some real strong Can - Vitamin C vibes ;)
there are some Mother Sky notes that go on during this gig too. total excellence.
This comment section is god tier
its nice to see john speaking
hes kinda accelerated, isnt he? I guess years on cocaine do that to you
Was a speed freak for years
melektaus nicodemus John seems more like a Sprite kinda guy tbh
Being raised in Rhode Island will do that to you too
When did they get that key player man is an absolute monster
2018
He recorded and toured smoto with them, and i guess eventually just kinda became part of the band. Super sick though he's really adding a ton to the sound
he's a fucking genius, he came up with a lot of stuff on Face Stabber
Check out “mr elevator and the Brain hotel” that’s him
best band ever, deal with it.
So fucking good!
Fuck yeah I’ve been waiting for this. I’ve been obsessed with this band since I first heard them in 2016. Literally can’t get enough good shit kexp!
What a boon Tomas is to the group. He makes these jams come alive.
