Habit 1995

Foriginal Sin

Just heard the Watt/EV/Grohl version of Habit from 1995 tour on XM. Just from that song alone, Grohl was the best drummer PJ recruited ever. WOW.

Loujoe

Crazy good. Saw them all play together on watt tour. Wow is right!

This vinyl has a great version of Habit...and it's just a badass album.

Awesome. I wonder what venue this was. I saw this tour in DC and was right in front of the stage on Eddie's side. I remember after the show Dave Grohl was just walking around the bar. I wished him luck with his new band (Foo Fighters).

Hoped that band turned out well for him, lol

Yeah.^^^!
Quick  flashback. 
'Hey I got tix to see this band foo fighters, the drummer from nirvana new band.' They didn't have any music out yet. I don't  think. 'And this guy mike watt. He has a cd with a bunch of people playing on it.' My friend loved pj back then. Ok let's go. There may have been some quiet rumors ev was playing with them. Odd band hoovercraft opens, groovy experimental stuff *ev on drums in disguise. No one knew, or really cared. All about cool music. Then foo fighters blew up the stage! Pat on guitar with a price tag hanging off it. Maybe he was going to return it? Then Mike watt. Bass forward dirty rock. A first for me. And my bud basically on stage with ev. He rocked but was just a part of the party. Dave killing the drums. It could never be recreated because of the monsters we've all become! If I could go back in time I would have robbed the stage of picks, sticks and setlists! 
What a life I've lived. 

Take care and hope to keep rocking.

Saw Banyan a handful of times in small places out west.  Crazy energy, watt is a fucking dynamo

  Had a dude painting on stage at the shows most times, as well.

He's simply badass.

11/6/1995 is the first time I heard it.  They played Lukin and also the best version of RVM I've heard to this day.

Definitely! This was the old smaller Black Cat (before they moved down the street to a larger venue). The stage was fairly low. I was right in front of EV. I remember thinking that I could just reach over and touch his guitar. Of course I didn't. But it was a nice thought.

mcgruff10

Is ed playing a tele or a sg in the video i posted?  I can't tell.

2-feign-reluctance

Probably is 'skateboard' tele. He didn't start playing SGs until Riot Act touring days.

I think he’s playing his SG by the looks of the headstock and I remember seeing him with his red SG from pictures around then. I think this video was recorded at the Metro, too - one of my favorite venues.

Agreed. First time I saw the strobe lights and the back to back jam to the floor and then some more.
