"With Man Man, there was a before and an after, a Side A and a Side B of their Take Away Show. Side A was all smoothness, nonchalance, and little bits of happiness spread under a dim sun. Side B was the exact counterpoint..."

I've been watching this video for almost ten years now and it still is one of the most powerful exhibitions of the community that music can foster.

Can you imagine how fun it would be to be a little kid just playing on the street when you come upon this?!

Saw these guys a couple nights ago. I went to see the opening act, Xenia Rubinos, had never listed to Man Man before. They totally won me over. I'm 45 and the show reminded me of seeing bands like Mr. Bungle, Crash Worship and Primus back in the late 80s and early 90s. Sweaty, uninhibited fun. Of course, at my age, I was content to enjoy it from the back of the room. I was just glad to see that this kind of thing is still going on.

this is no doubt one of my favorite bands, you can just see their creativity and how they have fun with it!

Aggressive, raw, messy and abstract. I love it. Man oh, man.

This is great music by great people. They brought those kids into their music just like they brought the audience into the street. Good music makes you feel like you can jump into it any time and be right on beat and key.

We need people like they to create a new better world.

I love these Man Man videos and everything LaBlogotheque has done for the music community. I still watch their videos almost daily. There is something beautiful and unique about each one. I love this one for obvious reasons. I love how the kids join in and play along. Music is such a good outlet and learning tool.
