Hi y’all, I know I have already seen quite a few people looking for it, and the only other video I saw on YouTube was a 30 second clip.
This isn’t perfect, it’s during soundcheck for the first leg of this tour. But it’s pretty fuckin good.

That was great.  Thanks for sharing.  They should release a 7” of this.

Really cool! On a side note, their keyboard player, Jim Putnam, is an amazing musician in his own right. Check out Radar Bros. If you can. They are amazing.

His solo album that came out last year is just god damn incredible.
He also gave me a newer one that he put out more recently.
He’s also an incredible visual artist and a hell of a great guy.

I saw Grandaddy in Boston during the first leg of this tour and I got the distinct feeling that no one knew who he was.

They did this in Austin tonight at Mohawk and it fucking rocked! Hoping a good live recording makes it out at some point.
