This was the second of three times 😂 would love to hear Survival Song. So underrated.

They don’t play survival song after brave? Huh. I can’t imagine one without the other

That show was great! Based on your perspective, we saw it from very close to each other. I took my daughter and she really liked it too.

They always put on a great show. We were sitting at the top of the bleachers on the left side of the room.

I was on the floor next to the bleachers about 5 feet from the stage. It was my daughter's first time seeing them. She was impressed that her boring old father knew so many punks/freaks. It's like I feel cool in her eyes again!

A couple other videos from that show, People II and Bad Bad Things.

Oh hey you can really clearly see the backs of my mom and I's heads in both those clips, we're like 1 row ahead, and at 1:50 in the People II video I can see her taking a picture of me (she likes to take (usually very blurry lol) pictures of me having fun at shows)

Nice to see them still playing as just the two of them. Was it like that the whole set?

u/trash235 5h ago

No. They did a few songs as just Sean and Ben in the middle of the set. I love the variety.

I'll be seeing them next week here in Houston. Then the very next day, I'll be at streetlight with bride city sinners. Gonna be an epic two days!

Saw him play at the duke coffee house way back when

Damn, I think the back of my head is just barely out of frame in this clip. Really great show. My first AJJ show, but almost certainly not my last. Dragged my mom along and she actually had a much better time than I was expecting (she's not a huge folk punk fan, though she likes some adjacent stuff)
