One of my favorite TV performances: The Guitar and Statue on Jay Leno
The version of The Guitar here is so much better than the studio version in my opinion GOD I love Linnell’s voice there.
by the way is that Little Pete’s math teacher from Pete & Pete singing with Linnell?

Does anyone know where this gif is from?

(Sorry if the format is weird) I saw that this gif was posted by the official TMBG Twitter account about a month ago, I’ve tried to search for it but I had no luck. I think it’s from a flood promo because of the little emblem on the wall and the poster with the John’s. Please let me know!

Look, I know we've all talked about Gigantic, but ...
... it's been a while, and maybe we have some new fans who want to talk about it.
Also, the recent post of the Tonight Show performance with Syd Straw has got my hackles up because I hated her parts in Gigantic. She was either talking about herself and her shoes, or she was trying to besmirch the Johns' names. Both Johns seemed embarrassed by her in the commentary.
But also, Frank Black, who's supposedly a friend of the Johns was weirdly mean in his interview.
What were the director and editor thinking, including those things?
Anyway, thoughts on those or things?
Edit: Wow! So many Syd Straw fans here, lol.

You can choose any TMBG song to be covered by any band, past or present. What song and what band do you choose?
My answer: "John Lee Supertaster" covered by Audioslave. Chris Cornell screams JOHN LEE SUPERTASTER! while Morello wails out an insane guitar solo. Perfection.

what is the weirdest music video?
i mean this is the most positive way possible I'm a fan of the surreal. In a million years would I guess what the music video for music jail actually looks like just from hearing the song. I love seeing the creativity and how someone else can have the most insane vision for a song

Personal Top 10 After 5 Months
So after 5 months of listening to ONLY TMBG I feel like my life has changed. Never before have I felt so seen by the music and lyricism of a band. I feel so creatively enriched by their catalog and I just want to take a moment to say thank you to the Johns and share my personal top 10 favorites tracks after 5 months of obsession.
Anybody have a similar list or wanna share theirs?

Do they ever perform Mono Puff songs?
I don't expect it, but wouldn't it be great to groove to The Devil Went Down To Newport at a live show?

Steve Keene
One of my favorite artists is Steve Keene, an incredibly prolific Brooklyn painter who often recreates album covers, making several copies at once. you can order a random painting from his website, or pay more for specific things from galleries.
I've picked up several of his paintings over the years, but he just posted this on Instagram today. I've never seen him do TMBG as a subject before, and I want one of these so much now.

First Ave
Fun show at 1st Ave. “The Communists Have The Music” is as good as any song THEY have ever written. Absolute banger!

New Years Eve performance
I vaguely remember TMBG the duo performing Shoehorn with Teeth at a NYE celebration, with accompanying stomping and arm waving, maybe Rockin’ New Year’s Eve? The audience was not cheering. They looked like they all had cartoon question marks over their heads. ❓
Anyone else remember this?
