I can't believe they used to let musicians be themselves on the tv. This is almost frighteningly bizarre.

Tommy was 23, Paul was 30. Right around the time of Don't Tell A Soul. I love it all, for better or worse. My favorite band of all time!

Like a Midwestern Rod Stewart and Ron Wood, in the best possible sense.

Most underrated band in history

"If i have to look at the guitarist's butt in leather, it takes away from the lyric" Brilliant 🤣❤️

The 80s seem like a golden age compared to now

Is anyone else old enough to remember casual cigarette smoke?

I'm getting out of my car going to my best friends place in Burbank and here comes Tommy Stinson whipping by on a bicycle. I'm like, man you don't see that everyday.

I'm wearing a Let It Be tshirt and reading Trouble Boys in 2025. This video is right about where i am in the book. Slim's first album recording with the band

Kurt Loder was the GOAT. Not condescending, laughed along with the silly parts, well prepared…miss those days!

On sampling: “Prince steals from us”

I've never seen two people fidget more during an interview with cigarettes and cups

Not too long after this interview Paul had moved back into his parents house and Tommy was working as a telemarketer. That was only temporary but still.
