That must have been a long boat ride.
dude u guys are the shit! when you coming to Sacramento, i hella wanna see you guys live and i like the playlist a couple pics back as The Fucking View Bitch last lol
Sweet pic. Doing the cockroach fucking rocked in Baltimore.
Great guitarist.
“Yes everyone, this is indeed Johnny Marr, but this ISN’T New york City behind me. That is actually a curtain, we’re actually somewhere in Barbados right now.”
You have such shitty luck sometimes.
he needs to be wearing his robin hood hat to go with the lederhosen.
dashing
what is isaac anchored to?
Hello to you too!
First comment on the MM photo blog EVER? I feel so privileged and honored.
Dude, can I have those face bones?
“Isacck?”
um where did the photo of tim go? we want tim.
I would totally stay up to watch this show!
I told you it was my fav pic so heres a comment..looking forward to the book! ~La de da
great picture
Issac you are so hot in your booty shorts, nobody but you can pull this off
You guys will never believe this! I talked to my uncle last night on the phone whos in Hawaii at Waikki beach and he said that the weirdest guy he saw was this dude wearing really short shorts with a giant anchor tattooed on his back!
I love the way the cymbal looks like a big ole harvest moon
Ah, what a fuckin’ good tattoo there!
nice tattoo, Isaac
holy crap, what? 6 AM or something? pretend to be captain
effing Gross…how’d you end up breaking those…?
holy shit…from the BUS?!
Wasn’t this a roady for Grandaddy once? I swear to god…
No not the bus – he got glassed by some twat in Nothingham
I mean Nottingham
I were there, I stood right in front of Isaac!
Gone wild right ya are! was bloody insane but fuckin great!!!
watch out for those wild yeti… they are rampid here in new england
i knew the music at the pines was great but i had no idea there were yetis in the woods. i hope eric survived. rock on.
Aw man. I was trying to convince myself that you guys didn’t do a signing at all because I completely missed it.
I was there : great show !
Whaat? When did you guys do a signing? I completely missed it too, that really sucks…
aww isaac where’s gonzo??
What a great shot..contains all the best ingredients…even the rain is represented in those light polluted clouds behind the ben franklin.
This is such a cool picture.
I love this picture.
this was such an amazing show! the rain didn’t take away from your performance at all. thank you!
aww nice shot Pat! *tanner is engulfed in Johnny’s guitar playing* great show! best birthday ever!! and thank Abe for my drumstick hehe
ps~ johnny dont you know its not polite to stick your tongue out at your fans?! especially more than once..hehe just kidding..love ya guys!
Epic.
I think I might see myself in there.
It was really insane, great show though.
yatteru?
I saw this show last night. It was fantastic. I have been wanting to see you guys live for about 9 years. Thanks so much for coming to Louisville, KY!
This could possibly be the gnarliest picture i have ever seen….
cozy
i really enjoy seeing the table of old ladies in the background..
pat, you’re quite the photographer
the massive wrath of johnny marr
thank you so much for coming to louisville, the show was amazing. i fucking love you guys!
I saw you all two years ago when you came with CVB. It was amazing then and it was even more so at Coyote’s. So much energy. Keep rockin!
I never thought I’d see you guys play without including “Doin’ the Cockroach” but this was so great it wasn’t even missed. “Spitting Venom” was awesome.
Does anyone know the words for the extended parts of “tiny cities” “trailer trash” and “spitting venom” (besides the part from I came as a rat).
The new songs were pulled off surprisingly well, especially Fly trapped in a jar, fire it up, invisible, and Spitting venom.
What was the fourth or fifth song… I couldn’t name it from any album…
Thanks
Right before this show started I asked my boyfriend if he thought that anyone in the band thought it was cool to be playing in the Ryman because of its history…..he said no and I was like whatever……at least one of them has to.
you’re the mayor of your own city, and the populations youuu!
hehe ok…
Aww, what the fuck… that was my last day in Honolulu before coming back to NY for college. I guess I should’ve dropped by the beach one last time.
And yeah, rad tattoo. RAD!
what a view!
-.- please buckle your pants.
ouch and wouldn’t that be shit luck?
I fucking love this.
whats in the clear plastic container? I wonder
Is that the bible………?
That concert was awesome!
o.O;; can my head explode now..?
I love your pictures guys.
Those are vivid pictures. Thank you for your art. The one of Osaka at night has a high degree of composition. I don’t know it that was intentional or not but I suppose that is what grace is!
double plus good
Beautiful…marvelous….I adore it…
take me with you
Now I just want to know what’s on Jeremy’s iPod.
isaac your gonna need your Truckers Atlas..get it ha.
Woah! those colors! great pic again Pat!
(remembers blowing bubbles waiting outside in Cleveland) hehe
That is a very cool dressing room. I wonder who is recording and what for.
They’re fuckin incredible live. Doug Martsch’s beard is also quite impressive.
This is a really good picture! it almost looks fake, its just that GOOD!
…Awww….
WOOHOO That’s Holland! Finally. I wonder what he bought at Bijenkorf. Can’t wait till 21:00 p.m.!

Aww, thats cute(:
HAHAHA love these pics of Isaac pretending to get hit. this is the best one. MODEST MOUSE!
well your jaws going the wrong way…your really seeping into it man…thats like getting hit by a parked car..cheerio
Tom..you signed my only shoes in PA…your a good sole.

Great show. Isaac yelling into his pickups during Tiny Cities was a definite highlight. I’m on the bottom right with the glasses.

Welcome to SL,UT!
Can’t wait for the show tonight!
Great show tonight! Thanks for visiting Utah. Hope you got your utah shit done

“the population is you”
thank you so much for this performance. crazy, genuine joy.
Don’t let go
haha, wow this is the greatest.

You don’t like the nickname Ike? It was up before with a different title and taken down for a while and then put back up with this title.
every day hay hay yes he plays hay hay in the bathroom hay hay every day hay hay
This show was amazing! I drove all the way from maryland to see it and it was well worth it.
Life *is* still sweet. See you guys on the island.
O! The Life of a Mouse!
At least it went to that all night diner in the sky.
tree frogs you are…lovely darlin.
What is these?
What’s the green spot on Isaac’s thumb?
Shoot! I missed the show!
awwwww……..
He is talking. About?
You’ll quit soon. Keep trying.
Did the band do a set for AOL Sessions? Anybody know when it will be online?
Master it! Outsmart it. Kung fu or Capoeria it. Thank you for all the advice you have given through your lyrics!
haha brilliant
This is by far the best photo. Thanks for posting it.
Sleeping on the job of not smoking, or would it be not smoking in its best form, of sleep?

yes…thats awesome. looks like your in a pickle with a massive 3 eyed bud.
Where the Hell do you find something like that lol?
Alien: “I come in peace.”
Brock: “DERRRRRRRRRRRRR”
Treasure Island possibly? Those things were crazy. It was a great day for a show, which was a great one.
This one is hilarious!
There are so many interesting things going on in this photograph.
Woo! I’m in there somewhere.
Great gig guys.
lol
nice haudi
Was Isaac even of legal drinking age at this time?
oh yea..well i cant go but you rock and thanks for all the pictures man.
i’m scared!!!
That would be funny if all the members played on stage with thier faces painted.
I met someone last Sunday who wanted to trim a branch because it could have gotten in the way of kids running and it had thorns on it, but he wanted to talk about it with his brother first because his brother had the responsibility of keeping the garden. He was holding the branch like this!
beautiful dog. what’s with those men?
I wish I could make it out…i think you meant “view” in your title?
really dont know what to say…this looks serious.. i just cant handle serious right now.
When they where in the SLC they all came out with these plastic faces, but they didn’t stay on for that long.
good eye…i was just testing to see if people were paying attention.
Ah Ha. I knew it… well.. sort of with the face painting but the mask are awesome please do wear it it looks good;)
yes sir.
awesome
Like I said in the previous blog, they had them on in the SLC, and didn’t have them on for very long.
I do like the look, at least for a little while. I love to see Isaac’s expressions.
eats me spinach..nine
the mattson 2. shredders!
ha…hanz and franz…nice shades by the way. those are the kind that seem to be a target for slaps or punches. i had to get the plastic kind that were made in the 80s…their break proof…spose to last a life time…so far there still intact.
man your hangin by a thread…..gots to do something about this.
them are some messed up charles in charge extras, seriously.
you look like the cheshire cat with a moustache
amazing show, one of my top five of the last 10 years! thanks and come back to hamburg soon
I was as this show…… Beautiful just fucking beautiful I
thats pretty funny
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Abe is nuts ..ya’ll are crazy! yet hilarious
Is that Abe? Johnny’s guitar tech?
Glad you’re having fun, but when’s the EP coming out?!
haha…he looks like he’s coming this way we better get out of here!
In all honesty, I don’t think I have the cajones to punch an amish person.
That is really a beautiful shot.
thats a good goblin.
This reminds me of Paul Cezanne.
ok Fidal…a bit scary to me…still love ya isaac
Sooo rad :]
Awesome website and photo!
hey pat, great chopstick and spoon action going on.
don
guess it depends how many voices are in his head.
Apparently, just the one.
Apparently, just one
born the same day as jack white
damn
that was a good day if i do say so myself
This is a cool behind the scenes shot. It almost makes them seem like normal people.
this shot reminds me of that monster russian camera and the two frame photos.
that was a great camera.
don
The first thing I thought of when I saw this was Mice Eat Cheese, because that song is a classic.
You already uploaded this picture, as number 114.
ahhh yes, you passed the test..just seeing making sure that people are digging the archive.
cheers, pat
Oh my lands!
The best photo Joe
I love these old group photos.
adorable!
Pat, you are the man. It’s photos like these that keep me in touch with the 3 guys that changed my life.
Pat, thanks for keeping us fans happy with these photos. These guys changed my life.
“Unfortunately, due to lack of talent and limbs, the pumpkin was sadly kicked out the band not to long after this photo was taken.”
I find it Really strange that there is an English Coke bottle in Osaka Japan.
Many greats
ha thats funny.
The archive is great!
Eric Judy. What a fuckin’ cutie.
eric judy. what a fuckin’ cutie.
Apparently the only thing easy about this book is sleeping to it.
Pat Graham….I too am a photographer and just wanted to let you know I check the MM site often just to see and be inspired by your creativity. Plus, I’m a huge, way back, MM fan so I get a double dose of the good stuff…. This is the first time I have ever left a comment though… hope this message does end up hitting your radar!
Isaac and the boys……….P.S. I work and live in Portland and got a hell of a Birthday gift this year back in March when I was “gifted” a ticket to one of your shows that completely kicked ass. One of the best birthday gifts I have ever received…. Thanks for a bad-ass show!
Hi Traci,
Thanks!! The blog is growing thanks to your visits, keep coming back and spread the word.
Good luck with your photo…
Cheers, Pat
Congratulations
Lovely.
Classic.
just so you know, Pat.. I’ve been digging the archive every day in 4 months.
This is a cute picture. I don’t know if anybody can answer this question for me but does MM plan on playing any tour dates next year?
Sean Penn? Nice.
Souls shine in the heart of phalanges.
Leanne,
yes they do…also in the next 2 months check the tour link..
cheers, pat
Thanks Pat
Pat, you should put the photograph of Isaac sleeping on the floor in a hotel room from back in the day on here. I think that is my favorite photo from the old days. I would buy it if I could find it. Especially silver gelatin prints.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/patgraham/274096725/
Hey, next time spend a few days, hang out and play a show, we’re starved for muzak out here in the middle of the Pacific! Help a brother out, Geez!

that is defintely ganja in that little clear bag.
did you see the black dog?
spooky
Great photo Joe
aaaw

You know what they say about big feet.
aaaaw
2 cute
give em the boot.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/J_a_c_q_u_e_l_y_n/yay.jpg
A picture of Isaac and myself. A little off topic, but I’m bored.
Those weird Germans and their giant shoes, glad Isaac could be part of that magic.
no rain; no rainbows.
meh. take me.
I love Jacquelyn’s drawing! Where can I buy the t-shirt?
wot a luvvie! such a cute boy, such a great shot.
Silly Julio. Holland is in the Netherlands, not Germany. And it’s the Netherlands that have wooden shoes! Also tulips and windmills.
This is a great picture though, to be on-topic…
LK,
check here:
herefor the print
Also limited edition prints from silent pictures here
Cheers, Pat
Hope no one calls the ASPCA! hehe
p.s Got the book today..absolutely stunning photos!
Wasn’t this one already posted? I have it already…
Winston cigs are TERRIBLE. Great capture of the photo.
mondays huh
If ever a Mouse looked so chill
No eyes beheld it.
I’m lovin the color variations, and the orientation.
I want it in my living room.
Today.

she’s a beauty! ridgebacks are lovely dogs.
and they actually sort of do. it’s a good thing though!
HAHAHAHHA @the pic
Looks like there’s magic in his hands.
I was listening to “Everywhere and his nasty parlour tricks” tonight, and i was just wondering if isaac would sing a little bit on the new EP. I like the new stuff equally well with the old, and defend you guys left and right, but I love your more mellow side too. Not the missed the boat mellow, but the melancholic mellow of “night on the sun” or “willful suspension.” just saying.
THat’s MY tattoo… the one on the right of course…Namaste
The Apple! ha
the bible is always in hotel rooms…
delivery service in NYC…the plastic container
hee hee
I was there
I love this venue!
SUPER MARIO ON THE ORIGINAL NINTENDO?!?!?!?!?!?
CANT BEAT THAT. YOU JUST CANT.
This is great. I’ve heard a lot about Man Man and I can’t wait to hear them live along with the Mouse.
I noticed the “send us your stuff link” Does that mean we can take pictures of the show or what?
it depends on the venue…check the send us stuff link.
i am looking for anything to do with mm or your town where the band is playing…
Thanks!!
Pat
ps it could be a photo,drawing, art, thoughts, stories,…etc
What is Johnny eating? An avocado??
is this back stage at the big easy?
cool..so does this have anything to do with that modest mouse book you were hinting at in an interview awhile back? *wishful thinking*
yeah…only the best for mm…
at some point yes…for now its gonna be a new area of the site for all the great MM fans…
coming sooon…Pat
I can’t bring myself to play anything other than Super Mario 64. I’ve been playing that game for 10 years and I haven’t beaten Bowser.
I’ve been trying to find that Elliott Smith album for 2 months. Bah I am bitter. And great picture, o’course.
this is my favourite picture of Pat’s.
mmm, rather tasty looking boys!………. dame edna.
i’m sure that’s dame barbara cartland arisen
Maybe a stupid question but did they play King Rat?
That sounds awesome!
hes lol-ing
HAHAHAHAHA!!! the longer this tour goes on the scarier it gets!
what happened?
LMFAO, go Isaac! Canadian pride, woot!
Lovely pants Joe
Nice hat.
Somebody is a Mario freak. Who’s playing Mario all the time??? I can see the TV on in there!!
hmm who’s been experimenting with the toe nail polish?
nice tuque. eh
Who won?
Anyone have the set list from this show?
yeah….check the pic before this one..
cheers,
Pat
Thats a big swimming pool!
I have to say that I quite like this photo.
I have to say that I quite like this photo.
I am so glad you all put this up. We fans have been trying to find out what the set was for the Calgary show!! How ironic. I thank you.
soggy chips, soggy chips. errrrr french fries.
This must be in the famous Edmonton mall.
Hahahaha, me and my friends stood outside those buses for so long, with no real purpose.
It was cold and awful and hilarious.
Or possibly just a gigantic pool…
Buhahahahaha!
???
Is that really Pelozzzo? Wow.
is that some kind of mountainous (err caveman mutated) cabbage patch doll?
What is that thing?
What is that thing?
Sorry I couldn’t go; New York is more than a little outta my way. Come to Boston next time and I’ll have a thousand people there.
okay well that says it all fuckin hell *crying laughing* not what I’d expect in a million years..blue pubes..great LMFAO!!!
You guys were freaking AMAZING tonight. Come back to Saskatoon soon, please!!! Best concert EVER.
finally a picture of ike’s kid!!
i would like to take that comment back after just viewing the previous photo…… ridiculoussssssssssssss
hahahaha
These masks suit you guys.
I must add this in Myspace
okay. dude in the black shirt with the red star on it, if you are out there, PLEASE contact me with the picture you took. thanks in advance
Can you guys post a set for this show? Thanks for the activity on the MM blog lately. Good stuff Pat.
I have Similar cap too
Joe Why You are such a sad
smile Joe
I can totally see myself.
Love the hats. Joe is quite cute.
Great picture.
I’ve been hearing about the lyric “The population is you” is that from a new song on the hopefully upcoming EP or just some added lyric to the song? Please jump in the crowd in WI it’d be sweet:)
Thank you so much for actually posting the set! You should keep doing that! It always keeps me interested. I know you could do something clever with it.
I saw the title and was hoping this would be a picture inside an actual Hot Topic. Although now that I think more closely about that I’m kinda relieved it isn’t.
That’s great. I like those mirror tricks. Or is it a trick????? 8/
Pat. You are awesome. Thank you for keeping us informed!! Great show!
I cant wait to see you all in a few days! Madison, Milwaukee, and Indianapolis! Keep the setlist variety up!
Hey look there I am!!! Oh do I ever remember This. Yeah I didnt take a picture. Recorded a video instead. This was simply amazing. I will send it to you later Adam, I gotta get to work right now.
Daylin,
can you send it to me as well…click the link at the bottomof the page.
Thanks!
Pat
Joe even early morning and pyjamas looks always great
It’s not every day you go to your favorite band’s website and see yourself. Excellent show.
Would it be tacky of me to request more shots of Man Man? I hope not, because I think I’m about to…
It says that you are not accepting video uploads currently. so i am going to post it on youtube and send the link i guess. I have a few videos i am going to post. Tiny Cities Made of Ashes, Float On, The video i am recording in the picture, and a little video of The View(its just some snazzy guitar).
!!!!!!!! DId they play this Pat? The lighting in that is so elegant. Soundcheck? Fog or everyones smoke? Well, it us up with a set list! Keep workin hard.
I hope they are playing this song…oh Im so excited for the weekend.
Basically, Pat, you’re a badass…
Do they plan on playing this song tonight?
LOL, it is a trick. there are different people behind the mirror. At first glance, I thought it was a urinal shot, ha ha.
Which legs belong to Isaac? The blue wearing ones?
beautiful shot.
Some decent advice on quitting smoking (like Isaac will really read this): Find a small replacement that offers some small stimulation in place of smoking. Caramel candy drops worked for me. If your strong enough to write incredible music, you’re strong enough to quit. Good luck!
Definatly going to Laser Floyd. =]
creepy .. me likes!
Awesome set… awesome awesome awesome.
these are some good choices
I don’t blame you, this band was amazing.
Hey Adam, I edited my video and have pictures of it too…add me on msn or leave a comment with you email and i can send them to you.
Daylin_Pikaluk@hotmail.com
Yeah I am interested to know what happened here haha.
Thats pretty neat. SMB3 backstage…haha
Well, I am next to the person farthest to the left. My drummer (blue shirt) got in the shot, lucky kid!
awesome, I can see my yellow shirt. This was amazing! Great picture
LOL, look at his little sticker! Canadians kick ass. Ha ha, Isaac is having fun.
What’s with the letter “g” beside the picture? You might want to fix that.
Why does that one guy look so angry? haha.
That guy on the left in the black shirt is intense.
I feel like this photo never got its due, so……. Great photo, Pat.
Yes roman candles make you wizards Yay Canada!
I used to live in Iowa. I bet you all put on a great show there. Im driving up to Wisconsin tomorrow for the Madison and Milwaukee shows. Then back home to Indianapolis. See you there. Anticipation….
PS Setlist?
jesus has risen!
Who’s that, sleeping on the couch? Isaac, possibly?
Oh, nevermind, that must be Tom.
did they go bowling in Iowa?
great
man we knew we shoulda went in there before teh show.
Hey! So great to see Ian & Lulu & Mimi!
Love you
I want one!!
Nothing like a soft pair of pants….
Thats funny. Man Man was great and I can’t wait to see them again. Whew I’m still tired from this weekend. But thanks again Pat I really appreciate it.
That is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Great acting by the way Loftus. lol.
I was at the santa barbara showww…you spelled ‘babara’ wrong :]
That was right after da show I was attt! Must be a boring book…
Cool picture. That’s an ugly green for a sofa!
so rad. what the hell is going on though?
What a perfect last three songs.
Killer photo!
MAN MAN rocks the house. Great pre-act to Modest Mouse.
I like your project!
Congratulations, keep on floating modest mouse!
Kisses
I’m glad you guys take pictures of the shows. I can actually see the two giants I was standing behind and my two friends peeking out around their big Paul Bunyan heads.
But giants aside, it was a fantastic show. I hope you guys come back soon. I’ll be there every time.
Haha, that one guy in the audience has the same hat and glasses as Isaac.
I am right beyondthe amp. Directly in fornt of Isaac. You can kiiiiiiiind of see my arm. Hope all is well. See you at the Congress.
It was great to have you in my hometown. Out of the 3 live shows, this was the best crowd. No lie. We actually watched, no pushing and crazy shit.
I wore pants very similar to Erics to the Indy show.
Nice.
I cant wait to hear Beach Side Property, Teeth like Gods Shoeshine, and Truckers Atlas. Im so stoked. You guys are the best. Be safe.
When are you guys going to play Portland again? Goddamn.
I love Man Man. I love Tom. I fucking miss you all… I really do.
Decided to give Mario a rest, I see?
I’m digging Eric’s pants and Jeremiah’s green jacket.
Come Come now. I know this said Columbia for the subtitle.lol. I’m all confused now.
Isaac is the white Ol’ Dirty Bastard.
This was the first time I got to see you guys live, and it was the most amazing adventure to your show and well worth it! I hope to see you guys again if you come back through the KS, OK, area again.
Hey Guys,
You played Albuquerque last night and I just wanted to say you guys are awesome, I’m going to see you in Tucson for my Birthday can you please play Baby Blue Sedan.
Jessica
I really wanted to go to this show but things didn’t work out. I live 2 1/2 hours from Norman but due to work and lack of funds, I couldn’t make it
I hear it was a great show. Hope to catch you guys next year.
lucky kids.
What a character…. that is awesome. I hope they keep the intensity and old songs coming when they get to Kalamazoo.
Damn that’s fancy.
I cant wait to see all you again in August.
woops…I mean chicago. Dont know where August came from.
Holy sh!t!! I was there but Isaac should’ve came a little further back! It was the GREATEST CONCERT EVER! Good job!!!!!!!!!
Our hotel was right across the place they preformed!
stormy kromer?
Great show. Balcony crowd was lame, they sat through the whole show.
You guys are so cool. Great show, great energy. Don’t book that venue again, though. The acoustics were horrible. Still, it was so nice to see a great band right down the street from me and not have to drive to Dallas to do it!
Doing The Cockroach was the best song you could end with!
Thanks for playing it.
heh heh, Isaac looks likes he’s really havin’ fun…
I was there! It was great! Even got to meet the band after the show! I hope to be front row in Tucson!
That girl in the red shirt on the left? Totally me.
lookin snazy tom
stuffed with shrooms……….hmm…………
The sharpest-dressed gnomes in all of the forest.
My favorite picture, for sure.
*David the Gnome themesong plays*
I adore you Ike, you are my God!
I love modest mouse more than anyone else that was at the Des Moines show. Maybe more than anyone you know. I know this comment is entirely unrelated to the photo but I’m posting it nonetheless because I didn’t want to scroll to others. I think you guys sounded great live, and I am glad I finally got to see Isaac scream into his guitar pickups. I was supposed to see you in Omaha during summer 2002 but my friend broke my femur in half in a car crash 5 days before that show. Keep playing music. I wish I could have drank Sam Adams with you at Val Bowl.
Your friend,
Zach
Guitar GOD !!!
Reminds me of that picture of McCartney. Great shot.
Great composition. Favorite recently.
This is simply amazing.. haha.. two of the greats in one hell of a picture
Why yes infact, of course, that plastic ass behind me IS mine- nice “is this seducing you yet” stare very well crafted infact
i like the line work on your tatts, where do you get yours done, (or his whichever) ive ben looking for a place whose lines are that nice….
I don’t know what I’d do if I stumbled upon isaac and wayne in a forest..
65, 66?
ah, the big dustbin!
I am extremely curious…please let me know. When is Eric’s birthday? Mine was the 16th of November and I share it with many people, but none so talented as Eric if that is the case. I have searched and searched online and cannot tell when he was born? Pat? Someone??? can you give me a clue?????
Yes! Eric’s Bday is the 16th too. Of coarse we didn’t manage to get to the cake till around 2 am before our long drive to NM…
Cheers,
Pat
I have one. Thank you Mr. “Professor” Marr.
Oh my god David the Gnome. Whoever said that, I love you…
I had no idea you were a beekeeper.
it is to contain the mãgìç fleas
I love this photo its very inspiring..I’d love to see more old photos like this!
A. Is that a balalaika Marr’s got there?
B. Is Eric making a documentary?
C. … nice locker room.
great shot
its-a mario and yoshi
This is the best picture~
bet that was some great acoustics~
Aww! Gorgeous!
Awww how old’s she?
Ah the famed shed. I always wondered what it looked like.
Oh my Good God! Is that really the shed? This is the most meaningful photo Ive seen on here. Wow. Im flabbergasted. See you all tomorrow. Pat, should I bring my Nikon? Would it be possible to get passes? I didnt get them with Tanner and Martin at the Wisconsin and Indy shows.
That is just too cool. Thanks Pat!
Oh sorry, Isaac took that picture.
Is this really the famous shed? Where it all started? I’m definately saving this.
aww she looks like me and Chrissy here in Chicago..ahhh nice and warm now we got out of the ice and snow!! tomorrow should be interesting hehe YEY!
hopefullly this is shed werd it all started!
when is christmas on mars coming isaac?
Hahaha, for some reason I was expecting the shed to be outhouse-shaped (like, rectangular). In retrospect that makes no sense…
Woah! It’s THE Shed! Tremendous!
wow, legendary!
awesome
Hmm, looks more homier then one would imagine.
I just noticed after seeing this picture for the, like, eighth time; is that Isaac’s guitar? Who is that lucky kid? A fan?
If those walls could talk…..
Thats bullshit. Do you know what I would do to play that guitar?
That’s Johnny Marr’s son you idiot.
Nice shot, Naheed. Did I just write that twice?
It’s a Wicks guitar. Check out the links section, yo.
Ha ha ha ha ha! Great show in Chicago you all. Thank you so much for the times this year. 6 great shows! Take a break the next few months and hit the road again like you have been. Ill be looking for Teeth Like Gods Shoeshine, Beach Side Property, and Truckers Atlas. Peace.
You know the best thing is that it’s an incredibly accurate impersonation of Marr.
Isaac looks quite interested in that there shroom…
Wow where it all started! I wonder what it was like inside..
there is a fungus among us hehe
i dont know what to say
It’s on my birthday! yaay:]
She’s 4
Joe: the next Dog Whisperer?
This dog have really nice teeth
not dangerous at all
What do I have to do to visit this room?
Beautiful Pat. Love the composition.
dudes!!!
Great pic! Is it from the Download Fest in Mass? I was sitting next to Nick’s parents/grandparents, evidently…. or at least that’s who I was told they were.
nice photo..where is Robin and his Jag? all the lovely guitars!
lovely.
Look at all those bananas! Cool picture.
That’s one awesome supermarket!
Yeah, he’s Johnny’s son. Kid 4077 is his band name.
jeremy playing the part of moglie.
hah, awesome photo.
plan B sucks
as in if Isaac wouldnt have made is a muscian he would have had his plan b:washing dishes?lol shiiiit
Insane. Fantastic. Amazing. Thank you oh great and glorious shed.
Isaac, please please please be smart with your money. I would hate to see one of my heroes having to wash dishes 20 years down the road.
My favorite picture, for certain reasons.
great photo!
It fills me with awe and wonder. And a little bit of hunger.
“don’t keep bananas in the ice box”
thanks for sharing Naheed. It’s kind of just how I pictured it.
I hope people recognize the significance of this photograph….This should be in the history books years from now
ditto on what Ed said! yep!
Incredible.
aww joe is so cute
and isaac
*Whistle* There’s my dream boat.
Ha ha, nice shorts.
Swimaritans 1 – James Bond 0
Btw Pat, is there a deadline for the fan submitted stuff?
your shorts are out of control
Oh mt.
This made fucking my day.
Everything about this picture is perfect.
I love it. Thanks Pat.
hallowed be thy name
Color-coordinated and everything. Do I smell a side-project?
or hallway instead of hallowed
Lucky Guitar!
humble hamster
That is some super sexiness right there, my friend…. That is some good stuff! Those swim trunks kick some serious ass….
Narrow Hall? :p
Industrial folk music. Insane string and accordions. The bearded duo?
Joe always looks great
curious eyes.
The Corridor Boys! Hehe. Awesome…
well me and my boys were thinking a real good name for a band would be goose-egg, but spelled like this: güseg. notice the umelat over the u.
Well, the MidnightPoutine guys would like me to suggest ‘The Mittens’, but failing that, ‘The Judy Peloso Special’ is all I got.
Yes. Yes. A million times yes!!!!!!
My heart’s the bitter buffalo. And my eyes hurt a little, now.
well now in regards to the picture.. strummin and drummin are pretty close related.
Massive Bereavement
onion terror
Trust Me I’m A Stomach
sorry, i stole them. but they are still great names.
the kromers
or kromer. something like that
The Judy and Peloso Experience…….? you decide
The Judy and Peloso Experince…..you decide.
I’m not sure if this is a bad thing, but my first thought was ‘Freebird’ when I saw the slide.
Nice shot.
All that is missing is the bucket to throw money in.
No offense to all my family who still lives there, but Oklahoma is the worst place on Earth. Kansas and Nebraska don’t have shit on the Sooner State.
so adorable
can i join?
Reminds me of Dylan for some auspicious reason. Good photo Mr. Brock.
The Norwegian Blue prefers kippin’ on its back?
I think your drummers are having identity crises.
Definately ‘Grigrigredinmenufretin’, which is French for Rumplestilsken.
My kind of preacher.
Just call Animal Control, thats what I did anyway.
Better watch out. Those damn reindeer will steal your soap and clog your drains with hair.
the woodrips
what the hell are maps doing on the bathroom wall?!?!? LMFAO!!!!!!!!!! hahaha
haha btw.. thats one bad reindeer. lol. BAD REINDEER! BAD! BAD!
wait, is this a porn magazine? Damn, Rudolph…
This was why the beatles broke up, cause Paul always kept John waiting. Just giving a heads up.
hackensaw boys
Even with just a two-man band it can be difficult to keep things organized sometimes. Hang in there guys!
Beautiful. I love this shot.
I sense a sneak attack.
I really love this picture Pat.
I really do.
When I got the money, I shall buy this print, okay?
I will wait with you forever my love
If tom doesn’t show up, I’m stepping in. I would so jam on some tunes with ya EJ
Why, it’s The Corridors! Isn’t that obvious?
I love that concertina. i think eric should play it on stage. maybe he and tom could debut one of their songs haha
my advise..stay away from myspace..and keep smoking that god given green. lord
I Will Wait With You If You Dont Mind
I know what im looking for now….
aww man, this is awesome!
wow … it’s the famed ” Shed ” holy crap , I wonder what kinds of mischiefs when on back there … also wonder what it looked like, cool pic
What happened to the trash bags? haha.
we had to get rid of them after the children started asking about putting plastic bags on peoples heads…”mommy i thought we werent aloud to put bags on our head?”
the woodrips
oogie boogie boogie
Yes, stay away from myspace.
I love the depth of this photo. Love the composition.
aww hehe the neighbor’s blue Christmas lights are nice as well! Happy Holidays!
its perfect longitute
Terrifying. Fuck all the haters, “People as Places” is your best song to date guys.
Yeah… I got the one on the left (Honus)’s drumstick hanging in my room. He handed it too me after the set. It was the greatest moment of my life haha.
secret songbird
You could call it a composer duo comprised of your last names, “______ and ______” .
Well I hope you did…
Love the content look. Where is this?
Ha! This picture is hilarious. Thanks Pat
hilarious
there must be some trippy 3-D pages. good times
so many awesome elements capture in this one shot!
this is a really really cool picture!
I love how it seems every A/C thats exposed and where you can reach someone has to carve something in it..nice graffiti
Good gawd! If I find this fellow under my tree, I’m running…
I adore this; it’s perfect…
haha
Nice teeth….
Oh and thats some woderful camera work there buddy
Great picture. I didn’t know Johnny Could read.
Two things Pat, I love Silent Pictures and ask Sir Isaac (the musician not the British revolutionary) if Brian Wick guitars are worth it that’d be great.
I love Brooklyn
It’s got big fangs! I did not know Rudolph’s cousin was in Monty Python.
You just dont know what you do to me…………
this has to be the best pic i have seen in a long time!! good one issac!! merry holidays!!
Lovely.
Are those war medals?
Bob Dylan – good musician, like M.M.! There is a saying, give your firstfruits to something higher, probably why Modest Mouse is doing so well!
Wow…that is one scary christmas bunny. Yet somehow not quite as scary as this nightmare fuel I just ran across…
The Bodyguard
I want to know what everyone got for Christmas. I’ll go first: my favorite gift was a membership to the local farm co-op.
Funny, it’s creepy though, tell it x-mas is over lol
Reply to Amandas comment:
I got an amp for my bass!!!!!!!!!!
ahh cool! I love riding in hot air balloons! the peacefulness when you get up there, I miss it.
I could play that if I had all my fingers…
The toilet brush holder is shiny. I like that.
That looks like the same thing that ate my cat.
looks pretty yellow
other people’s lives 2
All Iowans wont understand this.
This picture is cool as hell.
I feel like I need to break out my disco tunes.
i realise this is a dipshitty question, but what kind of lighting was going on there? Was it just the houselights, or did you use the flashbulb bit on the camera?
this looks like the album work from Lonesome Crowded West.
I’m jealous. The last time I saw MM was Dec. 7 in SF, great show but Isaac didn’t let us sing!!
How cool is this? i gotta do this when i play live
Look how white hot the hand at left is. Definitely flash.
Johnny’s face in the foreground-classic.
Hi,
Yes a little flash with room light for this shot….
Cheers,
Pat
Oh My God!
Favorite picture of Isaac on stage EVER!
how can I get a print of these Pat? Possibility at all?
Issac is God! Every time I met him I felt like pissing my pants! What would the music be like with out modest mouse? The dark ages.
In Isaac we trust.
beautiful photo!
This picture saved me and my day.
Who drew that picture?
notes..AKA more like a ton of work for Abe hahaha I remember the days of being a Teachers Pet
It’s kinda cool to see that mr. marr uses a capo on ‘float on’ just like us regular guys.
More like… Isaac experiences spontaneous human combustion.
Julio, i got one of Isaac’s guitars. they are amazing :O
Well isn’t Marvin the popular one? Ha ha.
really a beautiful photo.
Thanks, Pat
Hey is that N.S.?
Awww, Johnny the dog lover. ^^ heh. gotta love him.
and hes always got his guitar with him! LOL
This is a really great photo Pat. you’ll put this in your book I hope….
I love that couch.
…I would tell you that I hate how the new green bullet mics don’t have a built in mic clip
Love this shot! Scotty’s are the best.
Also very much enjoying the photo per day system.
Sucky seats, amazing show. I’ll have some organs harvested next time, think they go for a pretty good rate… Trade you kidneys for front row.
This picture rocks!
Hair Band!
Is that Scott Plouf from BTS in the background?
Where was this?
I love this!
The West is the Best
Shit Pat. Shit.
This is beautiful.
Breathtaking.
It just.
Takes me back, man.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Whatever happened to the van anyway?
there is nothing better than yummy polaroid fun.
This is fucking beautiful. Reminds me of Baron von Bullshit cover.
Looks like someone accidentally mastered Lyrical Abstractionism via polarized light. Neat.
Adam was only using Paige for sex but she was too clingy. She was dumped shortly after writing this. She thinks of him often.
That’s my Plan A.
oh Sir! this photo looks amazing!
He looks like standing on the layer of ship on the rough sea, so unreal. it causes a pain of eyes.
i’m sure that this mister doesnt see this people around heh.
well, one more time – great! and sorry for my fatal english, i did my best.
Krang
Good Shot, nice people.
Pat- you take awe-some pictures. Glad to see after a hiatus of being on tour with MM that you guys can reunite years later and have an awesome time all over again. Speaking of deserts, will we ever hear Tundra/Desert at a show again?
HAHAH!!!! there we are on the balcony! LOL! very scary!!
that was one super awesome night i’ll never forget.
fuckin excellent show and classic johnny being a goofball. love it. 
Oh my God I can see myself
Thanks for posting this picture it will be rememberance of my night at this show since I can see my friends and I in it.
This was during Spitting Venom. It had to be.
hehehe damn balcony..rum and heights just dont mix!
Great shot none the less..never fails
Amazing what you can do with computers nowadays…
Joe sporting the notoriously villainous modest moustache. Looks good. As for the Box Beard, keep shaving.
I like his shoes.
What a mustache
madison… first of three great shows in a row. from where i’m standing (white t-shirt on balcony) you could see everything. that view was extraordinary.as was hearing ‘talking shit’… thanks
are we looking straight up a mountain in the back ground? was this a poster… and perhaps someone happened to walk up and draw on joe’s face? those were my first thoughts at least.
Great title as well…
Out of those 3 i wonder which is the most likely the band would play? I reckon:
Cowboy Dan (most likely)
Free Bird
How Soon Is Now (least likely)
Such a shame Cowboy Dan has taken a backseat at shows over the last couple of years.
Isaac’s got enough for the rest of the band, surely.
^^^ TRUE THAT
Now that’s freekin disturbing… LOL
Whoa…once you guys can afford a shitload of fiji water bottles then you know you’re a big shot.
Hell yeah get high on coffee
That picture looks like someone really humble is serving.
yeah i dont know what im saying but im saying it
Yesssss!
Which one’s which, eh?
I will never forget this night of my life! Thank you so much you all. I hope to see you at that venue again someday. Cant wait to see tour dates back up.
I wish these pictures and captions were one of those bedside table calendars where you tear off one of the sheets each day.
sweet lightbulbs
jammin’
gnarley boots
Nice paper towels. LOL
I play in my bathroom because it’s the largest room in the shit-hole I live in. It also sounds the best.
CLEAN!!!
Beautiful!!
Duh. I knew that Jeremy.
ooooh loftus you look so looovely in pink.. ha hahahaha
loftus and his ever growing hat collection hehe nice paris hilton glasses!!
Renaming variables can merge datasets on the key so vernacular becomes lingua franca
For anyone saying Free Bird isn’t the LEAST likely song the would play doesn’t know Modest Mouse that well. haha. Isaac freaked when someone yelled Freebird during a Baron Von Bullshit recording.
Awww! How nice.
Nobody likes Marilyn Manson and incubus anyways.
who wouldn’t want to hang out with nice people like MM?
Stingy bastards
Im so proud to call you my favorite.
haha i love you guys
I Like Beth’s makeup
Better then hanging out with Incubus and Marilyn Manson. I much rather hang with Mouse! We can play Pac-Man.
I am so glad you posted this picture, You have no idea how intense and amazing that night was for me, I knew our picture would get put up, we deserved it. I am the confused girl in the teal tank top haha.
I am also the person who hurled on the people below me…lol. You guys did a phenomonal job, Talking Shit was incredible, I had not been that happy or felt like I was in the right place for along time, The energy that night was beyond my imagination and you all deserve an extra round of applause. Thank you so much for three spectacular nights of great performances. I can not wait to see you guys soon!
Modest Mouse? Yeah, I heard they were alright.
Come on Pat… GET A MAC!
AND I HOPE TO SEE YOU IN CHICAGO ON JUNE 6TH!!!
i have nothing thing to say…but hey..how are you?
that wouldnt be a orange julius your drinking is it brock??
she’s wearing makeup?
Score!
Everyone looks so pensive here.
Does he keep this on his amp or something?
Wise words. Thank you Pat.
thank fuck for feet
Good to see everybody chillin’.
bloggin taboggin
I got a real nice get well card, purty enough from framin. so dang it all i lost the thing, so here’s the bag it came in!
Lovely. Drummers rule.
The sensual groovings of Modest Mouse – percussion division.
The best duo drummer ever !
Yes, Beth is wearing makeup. Nice makeup.
from isaacs talent and that beauty is a great match together
it looks like he is covered in some sort of fungus………
That is a beautiful photo!
It’s eating the flesh!
Heh.
Isaac in his true natural state.
Going back to the water from whence he came.
I like it.
Nice Joe
Smoking kills.
like something outa a french movie
Equally beautiful! Isaac photographs well. In every sense of the word.
Ah ha!
It concludes
Damn, look at the impressive stache.
Facial hair is all the rage these days.
as they say in my part of the world, “dandy”
sólo voy a decir que esa foto me encanta, es por lo que había pedido hace tiempo!!!
isaac es simplemente sexy!!! i love him!!
WOW. OMG!!!
what else to ask for???
this dog is warmer than me. nice joe!!
Hank?
Joes just a dog person huh?
Killer shot.
Very cool picture.
i dreamt with is place before i knew exist!!!
There’s no way this is real.
Speaking of which, you lot really do need to come back to Australia ASAP!!!
I’d rather be out in that other water.
Pools; psh.
As an avid lap swimmer, this looks like heaven on earth.
You guys get to hang and swim, and I’m stuck here freezing to death. x.x
Love it! Wish I was there! However I don’t think I could pull off the baby blue boy shorts!
Oh ho ho.
Caught!
Those fuckin’ swim trunks again.
This is an amazing photograph…I think it may be perfect.
amazing, he looks soooooooo cool. and the best part is hes not even trying to be
yeah, this is really amazing.
magician…prophet….circle of light…..fuck yeah, JOHNNY!!!
very nice shot
J.P. — Thanks for the avacado in Minneapolis. What was that receipe again? Avacado, pepper and toast or some shit?
This would make a good print; “pejorative jinx”
Jeremiah stole his grandma’s shawl.
Beautiful cloud ’s
and nicely to see Joe smiling
Hey, wouldn’t it be cool to find the meatloaf one day just randomly? And come to think of it, where do you even go to get a podium?
I can’t help but adore this photo, for I have a black and white feline friend of my own.
Pat-excellent job with the site.
Its AWESOME + informative…
this was at the grand sierra resort formally known as the hilton this show was amazing great song list .and very excited fan lost his leg lol
Nice article.. Blame It on the Tetons is a very deserving #1
This site is top! great work putting it together and mastering it all mate.
Teeth like God’s Shoeshine.. I was listening to that song a few days ago.
just saw that you guys are headed to Pittsburgh on June 30th…THNX for coming back to the ‘burgh!
I am so excited for Chicago it is unreal!
Things look very nice!
Thanks for keeping the fans in the loop!
Loving the update to the site. Is that The Whale Song I see there????
hi Pat – the site is looking great!
dAN
hearty back slaps to all concerned
I hope you got those previous comments I had left on here before the site change.
I was just thanking you for the beautiful show at the Gorge.
It was my first time seeing you guys live and I have been in love with you for years and it was more than I could ask for.
Beautiful.
whoa!
Great job. This looks smoother and more awesome then the previous.
What is a Pork Faggot?
Oh myyy!
Modest Mouse, you’ve done it again, another great setlist, and yes. GASP. The ever infamous Whale Song, you guys should play it in Toronto (Y) (Y)!
10 days!
Whhhhhat, haha sick.
Cant wait see you guys TONIGHT!!!!!! i’ll be looking the allys for you guys
I wanna see you guys in Miami, but only if you’ll play the entire Everywhere & His Nasty Parlour Tricks CD. Let me know.
Your friend for no reason,
Rhob
Congratulations Isaac and Naheed!
We are looking forward to seeing you in Boston, Rochester and Cincinnati. I love it that you are continuing your WWD tour this year.
Awesome!
That guy was pretty hilarious! I can’t believe I was at Issac’s feat!
who in the world is D.R.I. and why in the world is a metal band opening for the pageant??
Oh my god.
You guys are selling these while on tour?!
Wow. I’m going to a concert the day before I see you guys, but now I don’t think I’ll buy anything there, and go all out on you guys the next day!
Jeez I’ll listen to anything a Pixies fan says.
Throw in Bam Margera and we have a sitcom.
Good List. The first song is one of my favs too.
tour in atlantic canada, or at least somewheres where your canadian fans can do shrooms and listen to your music lol
Trucker’s Atlas and God’s Shoeshine?!!?!? Godammit, come back to Australia and play that set!!!
You guys are awesome.. Especialy you Isaac!!!!
this new site is the sweatness……..+ awesomness…….+ ya
beautiful….
The site looks great, and I love how everything you want to know is available on the home page! and the photoblog rocks.
that is awesome
I was doing the hokey pokey front row baby! Great show!
Okay..(very odd) but I fucking love it!
hahaha..Nice shirt Abe.. whats the story on the big gold cellophane/foilish bag when you click here?
Hahaha, I saw that back in the day when it came out, funny stuff.
“I heard he had like, 30 dicks”
:/…….love the 30 dicks part thats classic!!
Ha ha, cute.
I love corny jokes. Here’s one: “Why does the cat dislike the tree?” Because of it’s bark. That one had me rolling on the floor in stitches. Seriously.
i’ll be at the orlando concert. you guys f-ing rock, my favorite band!
this is my second Modest Mouse concert. my insides are going to explode, i’m so f-ing excited!!! you guys are the only thing i listen to! i’m getting a tat of you guys on my arm.
hahahahahaha…looking forwards to the day you come to cleveland again. waiting patienety for a date, maybe, maybe not. pat, i bought your book, it’s awsome.
That was awesome.
I’m going to catch you guys in Atlanta.
it’ll be heavy
rofl
Why is it always the lamest jokes that I laugh at most?
See you in St. Auggy!
COME TO NEW ZEALAND!!!! we have birds that can’t fly and millions of modest mouse fans in our country of 4 million
Me and my friends saw modest mouse at the hollywood bowl on thrusday and i loved the fact we were the only ones in our section going mad over them and when they pulled out Truckers Atlas we lost our minds all the old people who where there to see REM said “wow, you girls must love these guys.”
This shot is amazing. What a great show.
You might remember me – I was the photog who shouted your name before MM tore into their set. Keep up the great work!
SOB i not alowwed to go to conserts i’m too young my mom says (crys) and the one time you come to florida i hope i dont murder my self on june 24th now. O and come to tampa next time!
GOOD PICTURE its beautiful…
DUDE THATS A SEXY PICTURE!
YAY HIS HAIRS BLACK AGAIN!!!!!!hes hot now
lovein the BOOTS!
Modest Mouse COME TO EUROPE
COME TO POLAND !
PLEASE !
aliens.
Was everyone just sitting?!
How can you just sit there when your music seeps out and is crawling through their bones and blood vessels?
I’m sure they were just numbed by it.
That’s why they’re all chillin’ in chairs.
My friend and I lifeguard in Manasquan, New Jersey and one day we sat on the stand and listened to modest mouse from the start of the day to the end just interpreting everything song and what we thought was being explained. Not much better then sitting on the beach on a beautiful day listening to modest mouse.
I saw Modest MOuse at the hollywood bowl also and they were fantastic….i went psycho when they played “CockRoach” but I just felt that the REM crowd didn’t really match with the Modest Mouse crowd who was so scattered. I felt like i was the only person in my section who was singing and dancing…and everyone else was like what the fuck is she doing? This was the third time I’ve seen Modest Mouse and I think you guys were ur best in Las VEgas at the Joint. Smaller venues with your real fans are way better…then old farty ReM fans who dont even know who u are.
So when is the ‘Modest Mouse: The Amazing Journey, That Is Europe” ???
washington… washington
like the panting at the end of the song… ha
COME TO CLEVELAND!!! WE MISS YOU!!!
Uhm…People…they aren’t looking for stories posted here. Regardless, those stories were poorly done, with practically no context and hardly a climax. Nice…
I’m sending in a few pictures I’ve doctored up, and probably a story of when I was at the Nashville show last year, and why I never went to Deer Park in Vanny.
Love you guys
–Murph
and what about quebec city or montreal?????????????????
awsome shoes, i like shoes, alot.
R YOU SERIOUS!!!!! THEY WHERE BORN ON THE SAME DAY!!!!!!!!!!
I like the end, how each thing supposedly increases how awful it was, but that the worst thing of all was that it was “…at a party.”
Sweet. I hope they’re not sold out by Thursday!
hey hey hey dont rain on my parade good sir murph simple mistake but if you like you know if its ok with you i can send it to the e-mail address now excuse me faust arp just came up on my itunes
5 day ’till Toronto!
I’m so excited!
You guys should play Toronto again, without REM though.
The show you played with Love as Laughter was short, but sweet! BREAKTHROUGH! It was amazing!
Goodness… cant wait to catch you guys..
I’m flying out from Cape Breton to Toronto to see Modest Mouse open for REM Sunday (REM was my favourite band growing up/MM has been my fave band ever since). Can’t wait, but please consider coming to Atlantic Canada sometime, too.
that’s awesome.
I like the dingle hoppers and the backyard willies. Oh your site’s cool.
Tony’s gay..but what the hey…was that mean. i like how you asked him if he ever got bones coming out of his skin..something i might have asked.
i love that video, “Two on the vine, so divine” , look forward to seeing yall in Orlando. oh ps if u like that video watch the JFK video….quite possibly just as funny
I need 6 tickets for the July 2nd show, please tell me they are not sold out. Im 26 and have been listening to you guys since I was 18…xoxo
where can you buy this poster? is it limited time only?how much?
that was awesome.i feel alive when i hear you
cool
that’s awesome for both you guys.
looks hott
by the way, the site is totally awsome.
Nothing better than cluttered-backyard grill sessions. My Bros and I are partial to “beer burgers”.
who’s adrian?
Play Florida in Florida. It would make my day.
Kick ass show!!
The Denver Post reviewed the concert and said that R.E.M. seemed a bit “thin” and “lifeless” but it quickly put the blame on the venue, saying that Red Rocks is made out to be a “mythical place”, but even this great venue has it’s bad days.
Red Rocks seemed to be treating Modest Mouse pretty well, though, because the set was absolutely perfect- albeit short.
Come back to Colorado, you guys!
Without R.E.M.!!
I will not lie, that is one, if not THE coolest venue I’ve ever seen!
This one it truely beautiful, Pat; nice job.
Can’t wait until the 14th. Dying to hear you guys!
shocked!!!
nice view and fx!
nice dreams sweet angels!! love u.
I have a question that has been perplexing me for some time now(really only about 5 days but none the less troublesome). I just saw you guys in Berkeley at the Greek and you guys kicked ass you guys even rocked out your new songs like the older albums. But the crowd was not there to see modest..they were full of REM fans…which brings me to my question why are you guys touring with REM? Don’t get me wrong the show was awesome, I didn’t even stay for REM, I tried to meet you guys in the parking lot cause i’d rather just here REM in background if that. But you guys have been around way to good to be opening for other people especially REM. You guys should do some shows with Broken like that summer I saw you in Toronto. That was still to this day one of the best shows ever. Sorry for the rant.
You guys should come back to Santa Barbara or VENTURA!!!! and play some of your older jams!!!! sum f-kn DRAMAMINE!!!! KARAME PAYMENT PLAN!!! ALL NITE DINNER!!!!! THE FRUIT…!!!!! BREAKTHROUGH!!!!!! LOUNGE(BOTH)!!!!! NOVACAIN!!!!! all those koo jams!! SO COME BACK TO CALIFORNIA!!!!! WE LOVE U OUT HERE!!!!! !!!GOT DAMN!!!
Are the rumours true about Isaac losing his left eye?
what a hottie.
God damn that is awesome.
THIS MAN IS SO SO SO TALENTED! He is a THRILL to watch on stage!
I was at the Hollywood Bowl On the 30 th, AND me sister and I are huge fans, Even though no one else there seemed to care, I wish you guys could have played more, Because your lack of coming to MONTANA every year, where I have seen you in Bozeman and Billings- I was just bummed I guess. COME TO MONTANA< you guys know you get lots of love here!
This picture is AMAZING. A bunch of us will be at the Chicago show tonight.
Isaac’s pants have a hole in the crotch. this picture makes me want to take a nap.
can you guys come back to los angeles for your OWN show were your the main act the rem show was just a tease really i want more MM!!!!
beautiful photos pat. can’t wait for merriweather
“This is just writing”, and so are your lyrics and my words, but your words have changed my perception of life, creation, and beliefs. I appreciate every song I have ever heard from you guys, and I am soooo stoked to see you soon. You are playing the songs I always knew you would, Thank you
and thank you for dedicating a lot of your life to your music, because if it were not for your music and words, I may not be as happy as I am, and I could be unaware of the Universe. Thanks so much, and thank you Pat for doing exactly what I wish I could do, traveling and photographing Modest Mouse!!
You will always be a highlight and tune in my mind.
pure sex on the rocks. thank you.
Sweet view!
Got enough cheeseheads there, Isaac? I didn’t know you could buy anything in Wisconsin at 4am, let alone a half-dozen cheeseheads.
Yes. Good choices. I have the same hat myself.
Is it just me, or is Ike the absolute coolest guy around?
I’ve noticed someone has a crazy hat fetish, ha.
Modest Mouse likes cheese.. hehe
I’m surprised only two people got hurt that night. One girl who slipped and got unconscious, I hope she’s ok. And Isaac who WOULDN’T stop falling, I’m sure he’s fine.
hahahaha what a random 4 am buy. =]
I wish you guys would come back to the House of Blues in LA. I’m sure it was small but we loved you. We throw shows down here if you ever feel the urge to travel south. We have a twilight bash in Halloween, and I KNOW FOR A FACT! Everyone would love you. Oh wells. Thanks much for changing our lives here.
Oh.. my..god.
Uh..oh.. Is Sean your Warden or something? lol
sexy
awesome pic
You guys did an EXCELLENT job in Chicago. I’m flew in from Oklahoma just to see you and loved every minute of it. Hope to see you again sometime soon.
everyone sportin’ the post game face, then there’s jeremiah doing the fuckin’ robot. what is up?
its cool you guys can do no harm
yeah but everyone got pelted with ping-pong sized hail
which hurt…a lot
but it wasall worth it
yeah i saw the girl fall. she hit her head on a steel rail
TEXAS! I’d prefer Houston
Nice pic guys, i wish you come to perform in Mexico City someday…
Really, best 45 minutes of my life. Some guy working for the United Center gave two girls in front of us front row tickets though. God I would have loved that. So me and Matt went to beg the guy for another pair, but we had to watch from the third deck. Sounds shitty huh? Nope, still the best 45 minutes i’ve experienced. Thank you Isaac Brock. And damn, i need to get a hold of King Rat.
last night’s show ROCKED. the intensity was there. great show.
I agree with post 6, that was one of the best times I’ve ever had, even though I was in one of the really high boxes. I can’t wait until they return, hopefully for a longer show. It pretty much made my summer (though, technically, I am not out of school yet…).
the most coolest guy ever!!!
mice eat cheese!!!
vengan a tijuana!!!
no, no to Mexico City, to Tijuana please!!!
hehehe “driving to cincy and flying to okie ..tomorrow”
Fondue anyone? Hot cheese on a hot mouse — yummy
The lonesome cheesy north…
Hey Guys… Thanks for stickin with us at the show in council bluffs… i have seen you 5 times previous to this show and was extremly happy that you ended up playing through our endless storm braving devotion to you… i know that you did not get to play your entire set but was extatic to see tou play various old favorites of mine such as trucker’s atlas and wild pack or family dogs… as always you aknowledged that the omaha/council bluffs crowd has an undying appriciation to you and all of the music that you have created over the years. i am definately looking forward to the next time you come through our neck of the woods…or should i say cornfield. Keep on rockin!!!!!
If you drive one of those to Tulsa Oklahoma… I’ll throw down for beer…
you guys rock, thanks again for traveling and creating musical waves that fill the air with curiousity and grooves
Fuck yes! Necessities of life!
that cat is fucking huge. It is LITERALLY the size of Isaac’s torso….
the spaceship has landed
i want one of those!!!!!!!!!!!!
they look so fuckin pretty, really.
nice job guys. congrats!!
That is cool. Congrats!
Had a great time in Chicago and thanks for getting the posters signed.
I have to say…Hell of a show. I am too super happy that you guys stuck around. I have seen you before and been to countless shows…and this show is topping the list of ultimate favorites. Thanks for playing a great show and keep coming back to the area. We appreciate it. Thanks again….keep on keeping on!
Looks like Jeremy was cloned.
Come to California again…I missed you last time :’(
Beautiful job boys, your set was amazing, can’t wait until your next return to T.O.
congradulations you guys earned it!!!
yay! you guys dont’ seem the smiling type..
See ya guys on Wednesday! Pretty freaking excited
Congratulations, Boys!!!
hey please please please come to San Antonio Texas. You guys are huge down hear and we need some love. You guys have no idea how much love for modest mouse this area has for you. im almost too into modest mouse. please come.
I believe Modest Mouse should do another “Side- Ugly Casanova” thing or get back with them and make another mind blowing self changing album. just an opinion. I have seen them live about 6 times now within 4 years, and I love them to death, they remind me of my brother the most who died of a car accident. wierd but it works…
i think isaac got a hair cut. Looks nice! im pissed i have to miss ur concert in florida.
Yay! Awesome, what a show that was last night! I loved it. Haha!
and with that said, Thank You
Congrats!
Bad ass!
CHEESE HATS!!!!!!!!!!! I AM OVERCOME WITH JEALOUSY
in the vecinitiy of the outer spacians…
FROM THE TOP OF THE OCEAN!!!!
nobody deserves it more
does anyone know how much the new poster is and can i get it at the concert?
that’s absolutely adorable.
Ike looks like such a rock star in this shot
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
canadians say ‘eh’
You all have to come to Louisville, KY please!
Everyone I know is in love with you guys and I’d definitely be there.
Let him wear whatever he wants to wear.
DUDE I LOVE UR TATTOO!!!!!
KOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
Yes.
Hey speaking of….
You guys gonna do ACL again any time soon?????
brockielockiewhat???? jesus, i love him!!!
f’ing hysterical
Yeah so play that song at your consert and amaze the crap out of everyone.
Ha ha, cute.
I Love that movie!!!
“You saved me from the giant barracuda! But look, I salvaged the treasure! We can live like kings! WE CAN LIVE LIKE KIIINGS!”
Best movie ever.
How funny!
Nice Guitar.
Those expressions are classic!
LOL..Eric and Jeremiah look petrified!
creepy, yet normal
touché!
boy oh boy oh boy.. If I wasn’t scared before I am now! I don’t think I’ve laughed so hard in a while (we’ll except me and Leanne’s mishap with the hotel bed in Chicago this weekend~long story)
Best concert I have ever seen was you guys and Camper Van Beethoven in Sioux Falls, SD. Please come back soon, miss yer kick ass shows already!
no no no, la cura de estos tipos, son unos reyes!!!!
I love that face, but what is up with tats?
i am probably going to have some sort of nightmare-ish dream about this picture.
Oh my whatever deity that you want to enter here,
THIS MOVIE SOMEWHAT FORMED MY ADOLESCENCE.
“I only see one Lebaron, are there two Lebarons??! I am going to make you proud daddy…
Proud….
PROUD…
…
GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Classic flick yall.
The sun cometh and goeth…but Modest Mouse will always remain!!!!
As awesome as the tats are…I could not help but to be distracted by the fighting polar bears in the background.
Um…Sorry…Did not notice the guitar!
rock on
I am interested in knowing if the sail ship that says “marry me” was for a reason, if so, that’s pretty clever and awesome.
Another perfect photo….breathtaking.
Haha. Might as well get a tattoo of a shirt on your front.
Haha. I love the reactions. Joe’s in love with the film, Eric is creeped out and Jeremiah’s confused
So beautiful.
Wow! amazing photo, Pat!
Fighting polar bears – how funny! Anyway, love the tats. What’s with Marry Me?
I was there!! First time I have ever even heard of MM but they were fantastic… better than R.E.M. (who I came to see to begin with)! I even bought their cd during lunch! Great band!
wow, sounds nice! like in a trance. Like it.
I’ve seen MM several times (around Md.) over the last 4+ years. Kimba and I are gettin’ ready to check them out tonight @ Merriweather. Awesome venue… can’t wait. Their playing with a band whose name means “Rabid Ear Monument” (or something like that). Just foolin’ – REM is cool… unfortunately we can’t stick around for their whole set.
I plan on posting the set list here after the show. Not sure why but I can never find their set lists posted anywhere. Then again perhaps I’m not really looking.
Here’s to drinking away the part of the day that you can not sleep away (greatest freakin’ lyric ever written!!!)
so hot
Damn it was hot there!!!!! The music was great. Love you guys.
Too much gore – and not enough of a plot in that movie, (imo)
Was there, absolutely amazing!
it’s nice to know everyone you know loves them.everyone i’ve ever asked doesn’t or only knows the songs on the radio.except for my friends back in arkansas.they love them too.not only the popular songs but all their 9 cds.oh, and i just found another cd, Modest Mouse/764-HERO – Whenever You See Fit.i listened to a few of the songs on the internet.it sounds good.i would love to meet someone that loves Modest Mouse as much as i do!my boyfriend does though but he also lives in arkansas.he’s going to the orlando concert too.
oh hey, you guys should go some where around arkansas so my friends could see you guys again.we all went to the kansas city show about 3 years ago but i know they’re dying to go see you all again!
this new web sight is so awesome.it’s like we’re talking to you guys.
what the fuck is goin on here?
Oh my. June 30th. Rostraver Ice Gardens. My tickets are in. I played ice hockey at the venue you are playing, it is five minutes from my house.
This is the first time i will ever see you guys and i cannot wait.
Please play teeth like gods shoeshine!
Why isnt Kansas City on your tour? Im dieing to see you guys in concert.
Pretty sure the fighting polar bears are from Isaac’s label: Glacial Pace Recordings. Check it. How do you get a T-shirt?
This is a beautiful shot. I love your pictures.
I want to learn to take a picture like this. The angle/perspective is great!
This one is so lovely…it makes me want to head for the hills.
God damn it. why do they play the shitty parts of FL
Come by Tampa
Cool picture, I like the reflections.
that’s an awesome photo. the reflections are beautiful as well as the image itself.
Nice, keep up the good work.
See you,
Steve
Great job at Merriweather!
awesome photo
When you guys play at Bogarts in Cincinnati… You would make me the happiest Modest Mouse Fan in the world if you would play “I’ve Got It All (Most).”
You guys have never disappointed me thus far. I expect this concert will be no different!
I absolutely can not wait. I’ll be driving over 5 hours to get there..
hey, great pic man, i love the way you got his holey pants in the background.
I suggest getting a couple boxes of Nerf Dart Tag. The Nerf guns shoot like 25-30 feet. My only major complaint is there is no back to the vest. Otherwise, I think that might add to your fun.
Get your asses back to Oregon. We love you. Show in Bend rocked. Please come back to Oregon and play “All Night Diner”.
Man Man:
somewhere, Tom Waits is thinking, “awesome”
These great pics should be made into a book. I love them. I didn’t see a ball in any of the shots, though.
Hows about a show in Oklahoma City?!?!?!
hahaha looks like damn good fun..and ya’ll making a mess as usual!
And you know I was pretending to play baseball just a state away…sept mine was on the porch…and the living room….i found this blue broom stick handle and just when swingin…were you guys wathing me or something?
I LOve you and I’m drunk on wine. I wanted to tell you…that I spend the hot summer nights listening to the lonesome crowded west..in my 1986 dodge ram van..and its brown..it used to be a church van…keep rockin brother…i dont want to be a mother.
soon to meet you again
cheers tarah
please please…keep on making music. your lyrics are the source of a cross word puzzle.
Head SOuth…Head SOuth….Head South…Head South
is that what this means?
well if isaac is trying to tell me something…i get the point.
but whats South…whats South?
Take me out to the ball game… make me some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with beer.
lovvve that movie
I love the plaid shirts!!!!! modest mouse is bringing them back
damn I’m glad everyone is okay.. lightning is nothing to mess with but seems you guys just can’t get away from it as of late. nice about ya’ll keeping playing..surprised alot of folks
nothing better!
I was right by the strike about 15-30 feet away and let me tell you there was nothing cooler than getting struck by lighting while listening to modest mouse.
yeah, i was there. it was amazing, but it pissed me off that your set was cut down. i couldnt believe it…
eric, are a u neat freak? thats a neat suit case!
Isaac your the man
come(back)to europe this summer.
ah, nice bike there. was this taken at jones beach too?
Come to Canada more! Western Canada! Please
i love it
That’s my bike!!
yeah i was at jones beach when the lightning hit that was crazy. what songs were on the rest of the set that weren’t played?
that lightning was so crazy! it lit the place up so much that it looked like it was daytime for a few seconds. i was really upset that they couldn’t finish the set.. i wonder what the setlist was gonna be – i’d like to see it so i can cry over what we missed out on.
This picture rocks. Love the water in the background.
wow hes riding a pink girl’s bike!THATS COOL! but im still wondering if he bumed it off some little girl.
yes arkansas represent!!! come to arkanasas please man im broke as shit and cant travel to see you guys. i cant speak for all these country fucks but i love modest mouse and i know all my friends do too..i feel like this is as futile as kneeling before my bed but maybe im wrong and you guys will see this and decide to visit the nice setup we have down here.
estupidas tormentas!!! por k no los dejan tocar??? pareciera k el cielo esta celoso de ustedes!
damn storms!!! why they don’t let you play??? seems the sky is jealous!
Sometimes bad weather follows good people.
i literally laughed out loud when I looked at that!
Wow! That reminds of the time I saw R.E.M. a few years ago and buckets of rain came down, too. Hee- hee. It was raining when all of you were in St. Paul.
BTW, great show, guys.
These pics make me want to quit my day job. I envy you.
That’s sympathetic magic for ya.
I saw the REM/MM/TN show in LA (Hollywood Bowl). I agree with Free Bird (in Berekley) who said we need a show with MM only, where you can play a longer set, although I think that both REM an The National did a great job.
I would’ve liked to hear songs from Sad Sappy Sucker and This is a Long Drive… I’ve been listening to you for ten years, and have seen you perform in Wilmington (at a hole-in-the-wall), Spaceland (LA), the Hollywood Athletic club and the Hollywood Bowl over the last decade. I interviewed Isaac in 1998 for KUCI 88.9FM in Irvine, California. We talked a bit about Snapple iced tea.
The band has made some great additions, and I have to say, you are still one of my all-time favorites. You’re the best!
Great pictures. Look at the fear on Eric’s face. Glad all of you are safe.
Ok i am a 8th grader from tampa florida and i have only met two guys at my school who have even herd of modest mouse. i stared listening to them when i was 9 and i love modest mouse i love, like every song and every thing about this band im even searching thrift stores and mens departments trying to find plaid shirts its crazy. anyway kills me to know i cant see u in orlando becuse apparently “i cant go to conserts” one corny request Pat i wanna picture of modest mouse with micky mouse ikd why. O and wolf parade cd tommorw!!!! O YEAH!!!!!
Thats not Eric – its Isaac
or do they have the same tattoo?
FIre It Up boys! Pat, great shot of Eric. But enough is enough with this weather thing right?
MA
The Whale Song!?!?!?!?!?!!!?!!?!
z0mgs! <3
holy moly.
Wha… Whale song…ar…ashduh…..ashduasidh… omg. this must be a dream.
yess whale song?!?! instant classic
the light is so fascinating
now that i hear this…not as bummed lycretia & i missed the show, sounds super dangerous. sorry to not have met you. hope you have a great show at msg on thursday. safe travels. all the best, angie
amazing concert. better than the one in April.
i looked forward to this show more than prom and graduation.
love you guys. come back soon. <3
Amazing concert, best live performance I’ve seen from them.
Modest Mouse your words are thoughts people think everyday. I think your the only concert worth seeing if you guys come to my city’s arena i heard u guys were here but i couldnt make it pregnant thing… PLEASE COME TO THE SAVE ON FOODS CENTER IN VICTORIA CANADA PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHEN im 18 and i had a kid in DEcember Your songs give me oxygen to breathe/ please COME HERE!!!!
They actually really did play The Whale Song?!
And God said….
Modest Mouse will light the world with song and dance
the light will melt your face off
and everyone will keep cheering
all for the lovely
Whale Song
that’s crazy
wow man i am definatly with you on that one .. the last time they came to kansas city i was in new mexico
but looking forword to hearing isaac sing with charlie thompson
I heard a bootleg of this show.
I cant express in words about the Whale Song. It’s a dark lullaby that you can groove to. Its like… Dramamine-Bukowski-and Mechanical Birds, only its mechanical whales all mixed into one.
You guys are geniuses. Cant wait to see you in Rostraver and Cincy.
oh thats great. thats my fuckin van sept shorter…and i want mine painted nice sparkle black or something..since its like my cadillac.
Adorable. Drive it back to LA.
That’s amazing! You’re great, Johnny.
Is that a glittery robot in front of the heart?! This is the greatest thing I’ve seen in a while.
you guys should come to toronto!
wow…. i think im in love
ist zehr gut! 9 to 10, old to new + new one. talkin’ shit about a pretty sunset? polar opposites? what’s up? i used to skateboard in there. wife loves johnny.
I enjoy this picture. It’s the three guys who have been in it since day one.
Domo Arigato,Mr.Roboto….The van is exquisite
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAT!!!!!
HONOR & GRANNIE ARE MAKING CAKE & HAVING A TEA PARTY WITH BUTALOONS. PRUE’S HAVIN DOUBLE CREAM.
xom,h,p & grannie
I love these photos. The way they progress to a more intense shot. Awesome to hear they played the Whale Song.
i think a lot of folks like you guys and your music…
i am only one of them.
I will be at the Miami, Myrtle Beach, and Norfolk shows.
I always knew you guys would play the songs you are playing now…but I still have trouble recollecting the fact that you actually are playing the songs I wish to hear.
I am so amped to hear and feel you guys energy and groove for three nights..if only you guys would take me under your wing and let me travel with you!!! lol
I hope to communicate with you guys afterwards. I appreciate your love for your music more than you may know.
Peace be with you all, and see you soon!!!
pimp that shit
I missed the Whale Song, it was so hot in there I almost passed out. Thank you Ed Frost, Rochester EMS for the water and kind care. May I suggest your roadies get some Big (electric) fans for your EXTRAORDINARY band and adoring fans? Thank you, can’t wait to see you again in Pittsburg (Rostraver) and Cincinnati. I’ll tank up first. Love you photos Pat!
come to the lone star. I’ve been waiting my entire adolescence, and I’ll be damned if another lifetime favorite disappears before I get to see em’ live. in person. do it
i started humming that man man anthem when i saw this pic….la la la la…dodoo do…dodo do…1 2…1 2..or whatever…and at the end the battle ends with a laser gun.
Ha, they match!
that was a nice way to break up the set changes.
loved it. <3
How cool is that!
I wanna be there
Looking forward to your Cincinnati show! Can’t wait!
i have to agree with the kiwi before, please please please come to NZ in the not-too-distant future. you guys are amazing and lots of people here would love to see you play.
please please pretty please.
I saw you guys at the mann center in philly last night. You guys were amazing. Hope you are coming back to the area soon. Can’t wait to see you again!!!
I’m a sexy bagpiper!!!
if thats really isaacs van…id shit myself. thats hip as hell. god i love modest mouse
you have no idea how excited i was about this show when i got the email this morning. Couldn’t eat or anything. I was all on top of my shit too, on ticketmaster.com at like 11 am, waiting. I had my three reserved and the fucking site told me my credit card info was wrong and then booted me. Last year’s show at the pool was amazing.
it’s really cool of you guys to do this tonight, too bad scalpers scooped up tickets musicheads could’ve gotten.
anyway, you guys write songs like a motherucker.
and the population is you.
lookin forward to the outside show on the beach in st. augustine. please play stars are projectors!!
I bought one when I went to one of there recent concerts with R.E.M. and The National. It’s pretty fucking awesome. I also bought a shirt!
I effin love you guys,
but scalpers affectivly reuined this opportunity this amazing opportunity to see your bitchin’ band
catch ya next time.
Apparently I was one of the lucky few to snag a ticket.. I cannot WAIT… thank you guys for doing this shit… I couldnt afford tixx to see REM
Please play Other People’s Lives in Cincinnati! Saw you all in Jones Beach last weekend. I was sad you could not finish your set.
Safe Travels.
As instructed, I came on out. Loved it. Can we hang out again before you go down South? Thanks!
i only saw one scalper outside the venue, they didn’t affect anything. there was less than 500 tickets available through ticketmaster, what do you expect?
the show was awesome despite so many people complaining all over the internet about it and even at the venue when they couldn’t bum a ticket off of anyone. it did take a lil while for things to start but other than that, thanks for the great time!
I was there and ran like a little girl when the lightening struck, I was about 20 yards from it… scary shit
that’s a whole lot of minds listening to you
You guys rocked so hard and fast at the Mann this week. I just booked tix for the show at the Ice garden. I cant wait for a full set. No offense to R.E.M. but you blew the doors off those cats!! I’m so soory about the crowd their that night. They were there for the main act and were certainly not indicative of how Philly feels and fiends about and for Modest Mouse! Absolutely amazing!! Can’t wait for the 30th!!! God Bless!!!
What’s with the age limit? Come on, man. The MSG show was great, but I could barely see you, and you didn’t play long enough. Not by a long shot
ya’ll really should come down to TX. Maybe next yr you could take a drive through the rolling hills of Austin as you make your escape from Florida. I’m an H-town resident myself but Austin is just the place to be for live music so I wouldn’t mind the drive.
Come play the new Nokia theater in downtown Los Angeles! That would be great!
hey ATHFguy how much was it?
YOU GUYS SUCK no, just kidding, it was cool.it was cool you guys changing songs without stopping and on three different cds.i’ve never seen that but i’ve only been to 7 concerts.if you guys are gonna play out some music you should play number 5 on the purple cd.i love the music.(orlando show)did that feel good beating yourself with your guitar Isaac?isn’t that the ultimate high when you’re playing!?i’m gonna learn how to play the drums and try to get into a garage band.i wanna sing but i can’t and girl bands suck.music is my calling in life!later
My friend was there, i really wish i went. Nice picture of Eric, his face is priceless.
you guys rocked last year in cleveland, and am expecting it again in PA. best band ever
show some love to seattle guys, we want you to come.
BILL!!!!!!!!
Hanging with R.E.M. is a good thing.
that show was fucking kickass. the bagpipes were sweet
Great picture. Bill Berry is a great drummer.
Play Houston!!! Do it!!!!
Reminds me of Steam Engenius when he says the beating heart of a robot
When I listen to albums Bill Berry dummed on like “Murmur” and “Chronic Town”, I think of MM because the band rocks out but is aware of the audience and truly technically good at the same time. This picture shows how nice everyone is! Farm hands, ha ha, as Bob Dylan said “Keep your hand on that plow, hold on”…
Nice!
Wish you could have played a longer set in Atlanta.
hottness, nothing better then tom in a gold. are those some big ass nugs or um…. yeah nm
I see some Green…
yo can I hit that?
Modest Mouse is Number 1
I saw you in Santa Barbara and San Diego last fall.
You are all I listen to.
I can’t wait til you come back!
that shirt is gold
CHECK OUT THE GOOMIES. THEY SOUND LIKE THEY WERE GROWN OUT OF ISSACS BUTT IN THE LATE 90′S
Check out a review of this performance with Blurt Magazine!
Thanks so much for the great show last night! You guys were rockin! I am excited for the Myrtle Beach and Norfolk shows! Please play Teeth
ohh that looks so GROSS! I never was a P&J kid..so yeah..yuck
PB and J? Grilled cheese?
oh wow. thats real.
its like the man man video of spider cider
Palm Trees. Lovely.
modest mouse should do a tour with wolf parade.. i dont think i could ever go to another concert after that.. nothing would touch it..
\\
Reminds me of Camber Sands circa 2000
thats great
Oh my god, hahahahhahahaha!
This made me laugh so hard, druggies, jeeze XD XD XD
I have waited years for MM to come back to FLA — and had to miss the orlando show at the last minute for the kid’s Little League game…now I am depressed. They lost 7-2…it rained all night…and I missed my favorite band (but I still have a radio!).
What a great picture.
wow this one is realy nice. i love how dark the colors are.
well done pat
oh look a hang out spot for serial killers. sweet
WOW! that gives off a creepy feeling but the hue of the lights and the sunset are a perfect match.. Beautiful sundown and photo!
Omb Nice.
That Pretty Damn Cute.
the concert was awesome!!thanks guys.oh, it was cool i got to say hi to Tom after the show.had to get one of your guy’s attention!!
Wow… I never knew JMG looked so much like Jesus. Awesome.
Glad he still does that.
wow wow wow <3
I see that dank.
Good job boys.
finally an old skool (ish) pat shot – a wider angle might have been nice, damn digital…
I saw this show at Hard Rock Live. Killer show. I had been waiting to see them for years now! Great photo, Pat. I love the duotone and composition.
I’m pretty sure that truckers atlas needs to be filmed for historical records. all on you mr. hurley, i can’t fucking keep still, camera gets a-wobblin
ha ha ha
king isaac !
I think this is what we all came here to see. Isaac Brock playing huge guitars in a fountain.
Gold.
haha, like a child in a candy-shop
wow great photo!
So….. who’s Pat Graham and how do we (me and Kassi) become him??
I second that harmony. Isaac… marry us?
http://www.patgraham.org
…no information on how to become him though
thats where the shirt ended up
When will the “GREATEST BAND EVER” grace the city of Chicago again. I need to know to keeping living.
looks like your in some old school star trek episode. right on brother.
This is hilarious, and I’ll never be able to look at this fountain the same way again. Wow, if he ever happens to visit Disney’s Music All Star hotel, I can only imagine him scaling the giant guitars there: http://www.gratur.com.br/disney/img/allstar3.jpg
Although, this looks more like a splendid field day to me. Awesome shots, indeed!
What FUN! Isaac means “he makes me laugh” … and so he does. Pat you are incrediable MA
that’s awesome.i walked by that fountain the night after the concert.
my son loves to walk around in there.it’s so cool to know you guys were here.it’s so cool to know you guys were in the same place a i was in!!!!!
This will be my third time in a year to see you guys, looking forward to see the hardest working band out there.
Man, no Boston date again, gonna have to Amtrak it to wherever the hell Rostraver is. Why must fate be so cruel?
okay, so i know that texas is like the no man’s land of good indie music, but you could you PLEASE try to make it down here??? i would love to see you guys live, but it is impossible when you play everywhere else but texas! help me out guys–i’m suffering under the weight of mainstream media down here!!!
HEY MAIN!!
come ta alabaima.
much apperciated.
Where in the world is that wonderful fountain?!
I love this shot, Pat! Did you do any post on it?
It’s the King of Brock Fountain
i need to buy this!
Man, that’s great. “He makes me laugh” indeed ^^
If you guys figure anything out on the ‘becoming Pat Graham’ front let me know, not only does he get to hang with an awesome band he’s a great photographer too (me not so much… working on that…).
Please can you guys play at the Susquehanna Bank Center in NJ?? I would LOVE it if you guys could!!! I keep missing your concerts around my area and I REALLY want to see you guys live.
Wow. That’s…. mature. XD
Fuckin hilarious.
I hope that you will make a visit to Halifax, Canada in the near future. Far future is ok too.
my niece has that hannah boogie board…..
cant wait to see you guys in rostraver on monday!!!!
*Applies for job as official preparer of snacks*
I have references!
Pat-
This story was definitely amusing. My husband and I had made some comment about the diet coke and beer being on stage, but the pb&j was definitely stealth. We already thought you were a ninja for sneaking around the amps, and I guess Eric is now in training with you.
Even though I wanted all three, I ordered at least one of your St. Augustine photos so thanks! All of you are always welcome back to Florida, show or not. They should consider signing up for the Rock the Boat tour, because it just seems it would be their forte.
Take care.
I cracked up laughing when I read that! Gotta love Eric
You forgot the American Flag that’s watching from above.
the beaches are overpopulated with “bargain stores” with all kinds of odds and ends with the beaches name all over them. You utilized this window setup perfectly!
hop you all enjoyed your day off
Holy shit, you guys got a picture with Hannah Montana?
..sorry you had to go through that!
Hahahhaha, oh Eric, you and your shenanigans.
Funny story though.
This brings a whole new meaning to the lyric
“I’m the same // As I was when I was six-years old!”
Haha, great story, just like them to ask for snacks during a show ^^ Love the shot.
He will be missed. lol.
I can smell a reality show on the horizon… who wants to drum for Modest Mouse?
It looks like Joe has really lost his head. Somehow I knew you guys couldn’t go to Florida without getting caught up with gators. MA
now the gater has taken over as mister smoooooth
My mom lives nearby that alligator adventure place. I’ll have here keep an eye for remains. Too bad I’m in Ohio
No pictures from the show?? Waaahhh..
I have a serious case of Johnny love, ‘ts all I can say.
lol MATT PALMA you got it!!!!
you forgot bettty bop whos waaaaaay at the top well half of her at leass (WHERE THE FREAK IS THE MODEST MOUSE BOOIGE BORD?????)
Hahahaha! Nice atleast its not as bad as hook and the ol’gator
I’m seeing you guys on Tuesday!!! I absolutly cannot wait! Hope Isaac is as crazy as usual. You’re my favorite band and I’m sure you’ll kick arse!!!! Wooo! See you Tuesday!
No No No
I can hear the knight from the Last Crusade in the distance telling Isaac “You have chosen wisely.” Guitars are the new holy grails.
Oh fuck yes. Neely is a god.
JFKKKKK….
What’s he doing here? I’ve seen another picure kind of like this where he’s like screaming into the guitar, what does that do?
Haha. Erid and Johnny finally lived out thier dream, chilling in the hot tub while Isaac plays his banjo and sings.
Looks nice. Where is it?
bring it to Memphis!!!! That would be incredible.
I don’t think that’s a real tattoo of a tux…looks like sharpie. And come on, Isaac’s tats look better quality than that.
FUN!
just everyday in the mouse dressing room
Nothing like the good ole’ banjo.
That’s the hot tub, backstage at the NorVa.
Anyone know where one can find Modest Mouse set-lists?
My boyfriend, Jeff and I were in Myrtle Beach for vacation and happened to be driving past HOB when we both saw “MODEST MOUSE – TOMORROW NIGHT!” Jeff and I freaked out. MM is one of the bands on our “list of bands to see before we die.” We called and there were 13 tickets left. Needless to say we got two. And were both extremely pleased. Modest Mouse is SO awesome in concert. Even if I am really short and all the tall assholes pushed me out of my spot in the front, I still had an awesome time.
Anyway, I’m commenting this picture because I found it ironic. Saturday before Jeff and I left town we made a quick stop at this store. We even took a picture of my brother sitting in the blue chair next to Isaac. I love irony.
i’m livin’ the dream too
best photographer ever
They are the people that they wanted to know and these are the places that they wanted to go
I love it when he plays the banjo!
Everything’s better with bacon or banjo!
please please come to TEXAS we love your band!!!!
Please post more of the myrtle beach show! IT was great!
I totally bought one.
Reasonably priced too. Only $10 at the concert.
With the added bonus of it looking amazing as fuck.
I would pay 5000$ a ticket to see you play a whole set of lonesome crowded west. Come to Pa more often so i can get out of my damn house and do something awesome
So i just saw you for the third time at the Ice Garden last night and it was absolutley insane. You guys are amazing live (well your amazing regardless(: ) im already planning the next time im gonna see you!
Can’t wait for the show tonight. Thanks for comming back to St. Louis! I have my dreadlocks all grown out for you guys.
My son took me to listen and see you and it was GREAT. Buy your CDs every time I see one I havent heard before. We LOVE Ya’ll in Oklahoma
I just saw you guys for the first time on Monday at the Ice Gardens. It was truly an amazing show. I can’t wait to see you guys again.
Aww… That’s So Swee– OoOO! Nuts!
is this the 43rd anniversary of the plummers?.. joe told me and my girlfriend once backstage, last year, that they were married 42 years..and by knowing that….it would be a secret answer to prove that we did indeed meet him. well if it isn’t i’ve just rambled on.
met…im an idiot retard..at times..and an idiot at others.
oh its your lady..didn’t see the love pat
aw man
I was there. It was magical. I came within a foot of Joe Plummer. My life is complete. i can die now… though I’d like to wait til the next time they drop by pittsburgh. once just isnt enough.
I just wish i could have gotten there earlier to hear more of the DDBB. I spent too much time in hooters before hand.
i have been listening to you guys since 5th grade. I’m now 18. Im not sure what it is about isaac’s songwriting but mouse is one of two bands that should be allowed to make music. Please come to philly or jersey, I tried to make it to the June 30th show but my car broke down before i could even make it halfway. i saw you guys with REM at the Mann center but it was just not the same as a mouse concert. i think i was one of three mouse fans there. i was standing right in front. im not sure if you guys even read this, i doubt it because of the mass quantities of replies. Please come to philly, believe it or not there are long-time fans and listeners that would appreciate it. PS: a belated congradulations on your fiance isaac. i hope all is well with everyone.
-Someone you’ve never met and probably never will.
These pics are great! None of the actual show, though? I was there, however i failed to bring my camera.
Man I,ve been wanting to see you guys play live for two years. You music is amazing, I’m a big fan of the new cd and The Lonesome Crowd West album. Are you guys planning on touring when summers over or are you guys going to take a break and chill?
all five food groups….nice!
do y’all remember when Eric missed part of the tour? ….he was sorely missed, no disrespect to Tom the multi instrumentalist!
None of them defense like me?
Aw, too bad.
(:
A fitting shirt.
I like how he’s acting all strained; Johnny only weighs like 60 pounds.
That is hilarious.
i’ll be kicking myself in the ass for years, i’ve missed you guys when you were right underneath my nose. Your probably tearing Bogart’s up as i’m typing this…god damn
i drove 300 miles to see them in saint louis and i have to say every last god damn second was worth it
thanks MM that concert was the best fucking concert ive ever been to
much love
Hahaha, great shot, thanks pat!
(Also, I heard “Satelite skin” and I almost started crying, ’cause it’s fucking brilliant, though it may not be mouse-esque, it’s still a modest mouse song, and a modest mouse song is better than anything else.. Thanks for being who you are, guys. You’re what keeps me alive some times.)
OH WOW! Where the heck did you get the shirt!!!! i want one! AWESOME MONKEY FACE ISAAC!!!!
HAHA LOOK AT THE THE EXPRESSION ON THE GUY IN THE BACKS FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!
AWWWWWWWW! that’s really sweet Pat!
HAHAHA! no wonder Isaac acted like he didn’t feel good tonight..did Johnny give him a hernia?
sick monkey mouse riding fucks do it some more don’t cha know
King Isaac
NUMBER 1
looks like ike gives the best piggy back rides
Omg.. I love it.. hahaha!!
Thats usually how i get to school.
that was my first concert im 15. and just like you said at the begening of the concert i got my face f***** blown off it was awesome you guys rock
deuce
andrue
anderson
did it hurt Isaac
Issac, I was the (old) redhaired guy with the beard in the front row in St. Louis, right in front of you – sorry I didn’t know more of the words – but I had a hell of a time. I was there to bring my 13-year-old son from Chicago; we drove down for his first concert. I’d seen some vids and listened to a few tracks but my son, of course, knew the words. I think you put the potted plant (plant of pot?) in front of me to block out the Ancient One, bad karma or something in a room full of screaming 20-somethings. I totally understand.
But you all are a terrific band, great energy, great musicianship, and I’ve seen some huge bands up close, from back to the Police in 1981.
And I LOVE your sense of humor, man.
yes, please post more pictures from that show it was incredible.
HAHAHA! Jesus thats a ton of firepower! we got firepower here right now but guns are going off down below my apt FUN!
Ya’ll have fun I’m going to duck and cover.
Can’t wait till you guys come back to the Northwest…Enjoy the 4th and your break on tour…
Have fun with those fireworks!
That girl obviously doesn’t know who the hell you are.if that was me i’d try to act cool but in the inside i’d be flipping the f out.
i told my friend at the concert you had your eyes wide open for the first 2 songs.-great picture
oh, oh no. oh dear god no. isaac b + explosives cannot be good.
Hope you boys have fun blowin shit up. Again, Tom…. Thank you so much for such an amazing night. We had a blast.
Hell yeah that’s what I’m talking about. Just got some fireworks myself a couple weeks ago.
I was there, too, appreciated the fans (electric). No cameras allowed, security made me put mine back in the car, but thats ok. I’m so glad Pat took lots of photos. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band was good. Nice light show. It seems like a long time since I’ve heard “Tiny Cities Made of Ashes”. Any chance of an extended version on the next album?
Thanks for the blog!
Just don’t get your fingers blown off or anything.
haha let me guess, somewhere in ohio before heading up to michigan for rothbury where the good ones are against the law. We did the same thing heading back to Detroit from Cincinnati for the show at Bogarts… which was great by the way!!
Well That Looks Like…. Fun. I Hate bright Lights. So I Might Hang Out With My Dig To Make Sure He Doesn’t Rip Our Blinds Apart.
wow, that looks like fun, happy 4th o’ july
Gotta love America. Haha!
I’m pretty sure half of that is Illegal in Canada
!!
Have a good time, 4th of July and what not……
Hope you and your wife had a nice anniversary.
you’ll blow your damn hand off. just remember all the things you have to do with hands
Ok I’m probably wrong but that looks just like this one place in Vancouver where everyone in Oregon goes to get their illegal fireworks!!!!
i wouldn’t like to hang around that shop if it ever caught fire.
do you guys plan on doing any small club shows in the seattle or vancouver area now that your tour is done?
Finally some pictures from the live concert. How pat the ninja got that shot without me spotting him ill never know. Come back to pittsburgh real soon. Maybe a venue with better acoustics (though i was close enough to the stage that it wasnt that big of a deal). By the way, the acoustics in my basement are awesome… just a suggestion.
you’re radical man. got some fireworks at the gas station for a couple bucks and they sucked…hope yours were swell.
Did they light them off during the show?
Yay!
PLEASE COME BACK TO INDIANA!!!! I was sick last year and didn’t get to go, had 4 tickets even, I’d LOVE to see you guys live.
Isaac,you sure do know how to celebrate…sorry I missed you guys, keep on rockin’!
Awesome-tastic.
Holy Jesus Batshit! Is Ike firing one out of his shirt in the first pic?
It wouldn’t be a good show unless there were a few near death experiences. Awesomeness. Isaac is fearless.
Ike looks like he is totally in his element there
Isaac defends us once again.
can’t believe it’s over.glad i got to see you guys!!
Lucky you, no hands were lost. Having seen roman candles blow up I say you were lucky, kind of dumb but lucky.
He’s very very stealth!
fucking hell! shooting roman candles at each other is the best!
oh yea..that looks pretty swell to me..i’d probably end up lighting my fro on fire or shooting my face off…you actually put that thing in your shirt..your crazy…but well amusing.
what’s with the hat?
The cig picture is cool.
I ordered this as a 32 x 21 print and it’s beautiful.
Holy Hell. @.@
Shiny…. T.T
I Love The Hat! XD
oh my god that a really fucking tiny stage… i think that would blow my mind
You guys should so come to NZ plz,
We’ll all be your friends.
Haha, 2nd one is real trippy.
AMAZING show! Can someone get me a set list?? My memory tends to fail me… =(
Cool guy. I’m so happy for the close up of isaac tattoo.
Lacoste. How cute
On the jolly green island of Ireland the Mice are terribly arrogant. You know what to do…
Playing guitar without hands is very difficult, but I think Isaac would figure out some way to do it.
hey i finally got the hot air balloon on my wrist!it’s dark green, bright green, dark and light pink.it’s so awesome!!
And thus, it ends.
Thanks for the tour, thanks for the music.
Can’t wait until you guys do it all again in a couple years, with a new EP and LP under your belt. New songs, good times.
And enjoy a well deserved rest!
makes me sad
But you all really deserve a break. Thanks for everything!!! <3
Even though I only got to attend one show, I still followed your tour dates. The band deserves to have a nice long break. Thank you so much for the great shows and setlists. And Pat, Thank you so much for the beautiful pictures. I don’t know what I would do without this blog. You guys rock!
cant wait till the next tour. keep em comin’
much love
Thanks for the tour! It was great seeing you guys in NY.
Woot! Your Own Beds! ^^
I’m in this picture!! Ahh!
Modest Mouse, come back to Regina!!
I think a vacation is in order. I hear Australia is nice this time of year.
Just saying…
Bon Voyage Boys Goodbye bus. Ditto what Mathew says. I’m looking forward to whatever you guys do next. You Give Everything!
Bless your souls, you triumphant minstrels, you have move oceans and shaken the earth. enjoy your rest and come back to pittsburgh as soon as possible.
Thanks for the shows, guys, your rest is well-earned.
Great set, thanks for putting so much effort into it. Can’t wait to see you guys again…
Great show at Rothbury! I was raging out in the front row with my mask on! I wish you would post more pictures of Rothbury! I know you got them especially with all those photographers that you guys had there. But anyway, thanks for playing Talking Shit about a Pretty Sunset! I have to say that made my day
Its strange how perfect the lyrics to your songs goes with my life. You guys are awesome! Keep up the amazing music and come back to NASHVILLE!
<3
I am green with envy for those who made it there. At Rothbury, even your deadly sins have to be environmentally correct.
I am dying here, please release some more tour dates. Preferable in Oregon. You guys need to come home and do some laundry anyway.
Hahahhaha “a deranged lumberjack playing banjo”.. that’s Isaac for ya..
WOW look at all the potographers! yall got like a whole freak’in army!
Truckers Atlas GODDAMN!!! please come to switzerland, we have beautiful girlz here!
You guys really earned a break. Fantastic concerts in Florida. Thank You!
Happy birthday, Isaac! Much love.
I was right at front row here also, I ordered the print because this was deffinately a show to remember and it’s an excellent shot. I’m going to frame it with my Rothbury ticket and Johnny Marr’s setlist which I caught after the show. I’m curious though, does Johnny write his own guitar line up on his set lists?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISAAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As much as I love you guys live, I’d kill for a new release. One year has been to long of a wait. So I guess I’m saying I’m glad your tour is over, get some rest… then, NEW EP! Whale song sounds awesome and I need a studio version. But in an effort to not sound demanding, I’ll use the word please. PLEASE RELEASE THE NEW EP THIS YEAR! Thank you.
Donovan.
Lolz Apple.
By Das way, Happy Birthday Isaac.
well that sounded like a good show..good show ol chap
Tom P is a hottie!
Hey frank does your set list have Float on on it because I remember them playing that song but it was not on the set list????
at least the set list that I saw and took a picture of
I can see myself haha awesome. I wish Pittsburgh would book Modest Mouse a venue with better sound. Ice Garden just doesn’t have the capability. However, amazing show.
hey there, saw you guys at the Jackie Gleason in Miami Beach.
Sweet show- i would have enjoyed more Good News buh tuhh.. i know how it is. keep up the good work i love you guys
Wonderful pictures, especially the one of Jeremiah and Joe.
Thank you.
Hey Frank, can you post the song list for Rothbury? There was one song they played that I’ve never heard before and i have all their albums so I’m kind of curious what song it was. Thanks
yall should make a live show compilation dvd like a couple songs from each stop of a tour w/ alot of random bonus features or something like that i would watch it as soon as i woke up everyday while smokin a bowl oh what a wonderful day that would be
That above shot of the drummers is awesome.
Jon, I may have been the guy you got the picture from. I was wearing a grey shirt at that point. The line up was
– Bury me with it
– Dancehall
– Talkin’ shit about a pretty sunset
– Education
– Dashboard
– Here it comes
– Truckers Atlas
– Tiny Cities Made of Ashes
– Wild Packs of Family Dogs
– Missed The Boat
– Paper Thin Walls
– Trailer trash/ Satellite Skin
– We’ve Got Everything
– The Good Times are Killing Me
– The View
– Spitting Venom
Even though it’s not on the set list I’m pretty sure they played it.
Sisco, the song you are most likely refering to is Satellite skin. I believe they just started playing it fairly recently, there are videos of it all over youtube.
Frank,was your set list torn at wild pack but not torn all the way through…if so then yes it was the one i got a pic of. also i know they played it because i took video of almost there whole set. the only ones i missed out on were dance hall and trailer trash. I got the whole song of Tiny cities and like 15 to 45 seconds of the rest….
Yeah man, it’s to bad I didn’t check the other setlist I caught. The one you took a picture of was the one I gave to my girlfriend, the one I kept was beautiful. Can you send me the video of Tiny Cities per chance? Because that would be awesome. I can send you a picture of the other setlist if you’d like.
where is the plant??
i love the hat
great show:my first
There i am! Bright green hat front row!
vancouver?
pleaseeeeeeee put pics up from mansfield… thanks
i love this one
Geez Pat, how do you do it? Another amazing shot!
MODEST MOUSE!!!!
P
Rothbury was awesome.
I was that Crazy girl jumping up and down in fron of the gate!!! woohoo
…sleeping.
I’ve got a foil hat just like that. can’t wait until you guys come to cleveland.
brooklyn,ny Indefinately awesome!
what about brazil zil zil ???
any hope for that???
hey, i can see me in the background!
Hahahahha.
Greatest. Picture. Ever.
nice thanks pat
cool video… glad they were shown playing breakthrough
Hahahaha, nice ’stache
this looks awkward…did it feel akward?
you know the t-shirt with the finger nails reminds me of the thought i had the other day…about the first human and how they probably looked like the monsters with their long fanger nails and hairy faces.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! Sean you´re the best!!!
Great videos Sean! (thanks for posting Pat) It was really great seeing some of the old stuff..
why do they call isaac ike????? why is that dudes arm around him
little motel…………The show in rochester was incredible.
I’ll bet this is the reason that Johnny actually decided to join the band. He gets free piggy back rides.
so that is all the buses and trucks needed for a MoMo tour? Does everyone have their own? Wow. Anyway, hope to see you all again soon.
Those are probably MM’s and REM’s buses. The red trucks on the right look like ones I saw at MSG in NYC. They had papers taped to the inside, (with the orange tape around them), and they said REM.
I’m loving the sly look on Isaac’s face. And that is one hell of a spiffy stache.
Goddamn. That is all.
That is cute. The last part makes me smile.
how thoughtful
I guess i’ll pretty much die without seeing you guys play.
that’s just “allright i might be goddamned” for me.
:/
i know there is no kind of organization down here or even people that are willing to give you a certain safeness about coming to my somehow forsaken country (where people still believe we live surrounded by snakes and monkeys…)
but if there’s any chance of this thing being read…
it’s a fucking great country. so consider…
Brazil is a nice place to visit.
Buh bye
xoxo
with that look i can only imagine what brock is thinking. now, dude number 1 isn’t the only guy who can use the line “ever been for a mustache ride??”….
nice touch with the sunglasses and the shoe
that’s an alarmingly large pussy
That’s a good Velvet Underground song!
You guys look really sleepy
Don’t come to Houston!
It sucks here. Hard.
Go somewhere nice, like Boston, where you won’t have Bibles thrown at you for supporting gay-marriage. (True story)
How exciting!
Great shot!!
what an awesome show that was.
photo safari?!?! that sounds great. i miss you guys, i want to win a sweepstakes and go on tour with mm.
Finally a pic from Bogarts! Its my favorite venue, though I didn’t make it.
yes, u should come to Poland. we ‘re wating for u
please put a version of “the population is you” on that new ep. it’s a rockin song, and nobody ever gets to hear isaac roar like that on cd. also, marr’s guitar riff in that is amazing. it needs to be recorded on cd. or vinyl, whatever. i would probably listen to it about a thousand times a day.
Here is the video I took during rothbury of Tiny Cities made of ashes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sspd4gTaNxU
i like your guitar brother.
that fuckin picture was awesome!!!! hands
man isaac, your guy’s music is so awesome!i know a lot of more people know the words ure sayin but i can’t explain it u guys r just great. ure songs r different. like tool u have so many different ideas, it seams like. ure indepentent. it’s amazing. you have so many different sounds so many different messages.
these stories of not seeing u guys, well i can’t say the same, fortunately!
Wow. What An Incredible Super Power He Has There.
hi ppl, i couldn’t help myself i gotta say it, MODEST MOUSE will be featured on rock band 2 with FLOAT ON and i am soooooooo happy hahha
we in tulsa ok, need to see some modest mouse *staygold*
sleepy and sweaty
What a babbbbe.
hey, i went to that show it kicked ass
little baby tres tres still has my machete. Those boys got light fingers.
god that scared the crap out of me!! vile creature
Amsterdam… great show, as always!
This is pretty obligatory.
SO TURN OFF THE LIGHT, IT’S A NIGHT ON THE SUN, YOU’RE HOPELESSLY HOPELESS I HOPE SO, FOR YOU!
My first thought was: braids aren’t for everyone (although handy) then I thought, when something goes outside in the field it gets in harmless thicket also, it is good to be friends with animals, then, it looks like it’s happy or smiling, then I thought, it has observant eyes, then I thought, it is neat its kind can swim and walk. What an icebreaker!
Modest mouse you guys are ridiculous. The lyrics that are written are genious. When you play people can feel that you feel your own music. It has substance and depth, and when you hear the music being played and isaac singing, you feel it to. Come to Ohio.
i fucking LOVE modest mouse!!!!is there going to be a tour in montreal anytime soon? it would be so wonderful
tornado training? thats one cool cloud!
UFO!
The wall climbing looks hard.
I’m pretty sure u need to come back to new mexico… soon!!
aweseome!!!!!!!
looks like the cloud is hovering over the van
um, yes, hello…i’m here to agree with comment # 18 please. I saw you guys were coming to chicago and i was all giddy and then I realized REM was headlining and it’d be a crowd of confused 40/50 year olds and a short winded set by you guys. don’t you ever tease like that again! I saw a show in jacksonville at the jack rabbit a long time ago and then again in nashville after good news came out. The only songs those assholes acknowledged was “float on” i don’t care what people say, i thought the album was an internal ear party. Come back and get bat shit crazy.
Please and thank you
<3
lydia
you ar my favorite of all time. send me send me.
looks yummy!
I Love It.
i got one for this pic :”its a long way 2 the top..if you want to rock and roll” yea that was blasting at my telemarketing job today. as i was surrounded by small town delinquents trying to keep my soul alive.
great shirt
Lolz. Yummeh.
Dig The Shirt, man.
King Isaac, No. 1. I have the exact same t-shirt; however, my name is not Isaac and therefore is in no way as ftting as said T-shirt on not said Isaac.
If Isaac’s going to be freaking king, he needs one of those Burger King crowns or better yet a sweet sailor hat like Loftus was wearing when MM was on tour.
nice shirt babe
King Isaac No 1…that makes me laugh.
hehe, nice photo. will you ever come to Poland? i love all your music and want to hear u guys live
Hey guys! when u coming to Mexico?
Oh lordy lou.
Hands down, that shirt was custom made.
Thank you for your pictures. It’s the only way a late Smiths/MM fan like myself can keep tabs on the elusive Johnny Marr.
Greatest. Shirt. Ever.
great shirt.
that’s funny your shirt says king isaac bc in another comment someone put “king isaac”. my cousin’s name is isaac.
Hey is this martha’s vineyard or in that area? i’m going up their in a week!
Great shirt
to Polish fan : I want too hear Modest Mouse in Poland
maybe on Heineken opener festival on July 2009?:)
That would be great.
Hi guys, I really want you to come back to Red Rocks! Cant wait for your next tour.
Awesome shirt! I should get one like that!
Nice scenery.
isn’t there one of these with eric and a flute or something??
Japan worked so hard to rebuild after WWII. They are amazing. This picture is great, it shows a lot of peace. Those balconies are so ornate.
[laughs]
Yeah… where DID the podium come from?
a mystery…
When you ate it, did it taste good?
mmmmmmm……. IsaacLoaf…. [drool]
love the pic. wish yall would come to Alabama
heart cooks brain… amazing song… probably my favorite album, but its too hard to say.
Blake Wins…! nice one.. Pat
heart cooks brain!!!
Awww….It’s Heart Cooks Brain. One of the best songs ever written!
heart cooks brain?
HEART COOKS BRAIN!!!
Heart Cooks Brain
Heart cooks brain from Lonesome Crowded West. Dah!!
Heart Cooks Brain
heart cooks brains i win!
Although it’s the song that describes my life, it would be Heart Cooks Brain. Deep down we are all bitter buffalo.
heart cooks brain
It’s heart cooks brain from what I gathered from it upside down.
Heart Cooks Brain. Old photo?
Heart Cooks Brain
Heart Cooks Brain
(I cook ramen)
Why must you tease us? Ha ha.
Heart Cooks Brain!
LOVE IT!
Heart Cooks Brain!
Do I get a prize now or what?
Heart Cooks Brain, of course!
Heart Cooks Brain. Is it going on the setlists, it’s my favorite.
Heart cooks brain?
float on!!! bhahaha heart cooks brian? i mean brain…
damn those mash potatoes look good.
heart Cooks Brain
Heart Cooks Brain
I win.
heart cooks brain
heart cooks brain
Is that the famous Juan of Juan’s song? I have a live recording of that.
The NorVa show, amazing. Especially the Good Times. Everyone was singing along. That place was packed with true fans
“heart cooks brain” -The Lonesome Crowded West
This was the first song I heard in 2001 or so by you guys (on a Matt Hoffman BMX video), and had no idea how much I would relate and fall in love with your music, sounds, and messages…
After hearing this song, I found the album and had no idea I would collect every single song & cd from you guys…i dived all the way down to your 1994 “Blue caddet-3, do you connect” album…
heart cooks brain
right?
why, heart cooks brain of course
Heart Cook’s Brain baby.
i have a pair of those chucks
awesome its art.
am i the only one that wants to see a weezer/modest mouse tour? by the way, I was able to finally find a copy of LAL Holy. Awsome.
Eric looks like hes having some good ol’fashioned man throwing time
Aw Fuck.
Sounds Fun.
You’ll never know a classier group of gents.
A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours?
nice junk….should probably wear a cup when participating in human bowling.
STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN
…We have a chair exactly like the one Johnny is hiding behind.
Those Columbus crazies deserve a huge eyeroll!
crowd surfing with wedges!? seriously…
i cant tell if she’s excited or horrified that she may not be caught.

Houston, Texas
PLEAAASEEEE

Cheeeeeese HEAD! Wisco Baby!
I totally bought this poster and have it framed on my wall…
yesssssssssss
I would love to hear this song live
That looks like a cool pad. Great pic!!!
who is this, sam fella?
Uhhh….that Ken doll on the right is about to get a cork clog lobotomy.
What happened to his head?
Ugh..Look right here in the Modest Mouse manual. It says, “Isaac Brock shalst not put down guitar ever.”
Isaac’s picture confuses me. Did he break the wall, or something?
OH! He’s wearing a vest. AHA!
that’s an awesome apartment
Seriously? Modest Mouse & Weezer??? That is SO awesome!!!
hell yea love as laughter is the best
simply the best.
What no Andy? Just kidding.
Oh how relaxing you know Isaac sounds a lot like Black Francis talking shit about nothing,talking shit about a pretty sunset very awesome Why doesn’t MM play with the Pixies..what a sick show that would be.
to hear this song live would satisfy me alone.
It’s Isaac and the band Late Of The Pier, no ?
OoOoOo! I Like That One Paintin On Teh Wall With The Craziness!
hometown show? crystal ballroom? its been almost 4 years since those wondrous 5 days……..
Love as Laughter and Modest Mouse..
Epic.
there is a rough draft of the lyrics to this on interstate-8.com and if u want to help me desifer the rest u can find the lyrics on song lyrics.com
hehe he’s so cute, so funny. i fucking love this man.
spare some change?
hey guys. honest—> you rock. come to Los Angeles. we love you.. like a ton. i’ve gotten my friends like hooked on your music. we like your old stufff aaallloottt. errr//yeah. pretty much it. im listening to Modest Mouse now, beeteeedubss/
kk later.
Naomi.
he looks pretty into it. good for him
they were drinking mexican beer, that’s heavy stuff
What a cute picture.
ahh so thats what the famous loftus looks like is he like their manager or somthing?
or the yachtsman
Noice.
Well He Looks Happy.
yeah Johnny strung out of his mind on you know what with HM in Barbados..Think he made up for that in The The! Funny story though
Modest Mouse and Weezer…???
I would say Modest Mouse, Muse, and Radiohead!!!
Now that would be a show!!
i like the website.
its c-l-e-a-n.. and yeahh.
haha.
another reason
you guys are god.
this is wicked.
despite all the.. pain?
jerimiah.
perfection.
DRI is an old punk/hardcore band. They deserve all respect.
Yarrrgh! ‘Tis the captain!
Oh My….. Wow. Fuckin Hilarious.
Ha ha, he actually bought the cheese hats! I hope to see these worn in future shows.
hey guys come visit tucson arizona it will be off the hook
Has a “I won’t hurt you… Let’s go in the bushes” look.
We are very fortunate he survived. Especially since he was carrying all that cheese. I hear those big deer love cheese…
what a cheesehead!!
when do we set sail?
i bet i could give you four reasons why modest mouse would never play the song “free bird”. hahahah.
thats the best album ever..the live one ‘baron von bullshit’.
live is just so much better..ive seen modest mouse live 2 times should have been 3 but i was in jail. i have every album and repeat them all everyday because i dont want to miss a second of it and its just that fuckin good…
now come on isaac and the group…we need this live music so weeds like us and stay alive.
beautiful
Loool. Poor jeremiah, eric and tom.
They have got to put a message saying where you can buy those things. You got to love these guys.
im curious as to what any of this means… and im wondering what shitty movies.
i want to join!!
I just started listening to MM when I was on holidays in Australia earlier this year. I was in this clothes shop and I could hear ‘Float on’ playing in background, I got the assistant to find out who this amazing song was by. From that day I have been listening to the Mouse ever since. A top band ! When are they comming over to England ? Get over to Manchester lads you would love it here. c’mon the mouse. avit!
wait..beer fest made the list?! I thought it was banned a long time ago! I just watched it on a long bus ride a few weeks ago..field trip to a casket factory..nice!
I’d of voted for Super Troopers, Slither and Knocked up
Oh lawd was Slither bad.
This is a wonderful sight to see; Modest Mouse going through a plethora of funny yet very cheesy Hollywood comedies; other than I suppose Knocked Up wich is actually a pretty good film in general. How does one become a Brockie Academy Member exactly?
I find it very funny that Isaac Brock is a big Beerfest fan; and not in any condescending way.
number 4 better not be dude where’s my car
HOT ROD IS THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
i hope that the “tensions on the rise” is a joke and that the friendships are healthy and vibrating with love
I hope all of you are enjoying life!
FREDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! <3
I am confused, but hey, this is modest mouse, so i don’t really care. Confuse me til no end, please.
what about superbad, that was awesome. the benchwarmers was very cheesy too
Oh you poor dears.
haha, this answered my question. those are pretty good movies! especially beer fest, reno 911, and knocked up.
OoOoOo! Lovely Violin.
what school let you watch beer fest on a field trip, a school that takes u to a casket factory i guess. i didnt no they had casket factorys i never thought about it before that sounds cool!!!!!!
yeah, I truly and sincerely hope that its not dude where’s my car. That movie blew on every single level. Hell, its a stoner movie with no weed! WHAT THE FUCK!
Excluding that film, there is certainly something to be said for watching cheap comedies while high.
dude you guys fucking rule my daad died but i diddnt play float on i hope he isnt mad at me ; [
I’d like to recommend some of my favourites for next year’s Brockie festival.
1/ The Parent Trap (original version, 1961)
2/ Tetsuo II: Body Hammer (1992)
3/ The Adjuster/ L’Expert en sinistres (1991)
4/ Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970)
5/ Smooth Talk (1985)
It’s one of the best promises anyone could ask for! : )
Amazing As Fuck? =o
That’s Pretty Damn Amazing!
Happy Mondays were an incredible mess …but so much fun. Johnny Marr does a great Shaun Ryder imitation!
Lol, Sir Isaac Brock. thats a real person too. Isaac Should totally wear that to a show.
I like Billy Childish too.
cool picture
Nice!!!
stiff animal fantasy
so thats what happened to billy the badger… can i have him back?
jk i like his house!!!!!
I love this
Eh, gotta do the laundry.
Oh My Gaaaaawwwdzz! Badger! XD
Lolz doind laundry sucks. my makes me do it sometimes. I had to do it today to.. *face palm*
You know, JG is just that cool that he actually likes to do his laundry.
It’s nice to see a brand new member of the band doing the weirdest things with the rest of ‘em.
I’m sorry but…That was the best youtube video i have ever seen.
Indeed. He is.
JG is an expert in the ancient art of laundry origami.
Well thats awsome you guys should make your way DOWN SOUTH!!!!!!!!!!
WHENEVER POSSIBLE
fuckin A CANT WAIT TILL THE NEW ALBUM DROPS
I know Isaac was born the 9th cause my birthdays the 8th so its easy to remember.
who’s Adrian?
Well, this confirms the presence of a new MM record! Hope they try some new stuff/themes, Marr definitely adds to the band’s new sound.
I do miss the discordance of their old stuff, however.
Folding laundry in st Paul
can’t think of anything better
then the fresh smells
of flannels and sweaters
The norva show was great. A backstage hot tub! wowza.
i was at my uncles beach house and he wanted to take my for a walk to find shells so i thought it would be cool to put jeans on so i told him “bet im the only person on the beach in jeans” aparenty not.
I’m glad JG likes to do laundry, cause I don’t!!
this is my favorite picture of this band so far if you look close enough u can isaac’s beard, but thats not why i like it, i like the lights!
sory pat… i just wana know when the ep is coming out. YAY I LOVE JOHNNY!!!!!! he gives a cool effect and he seems to get along well with the rest of the band.
I really hope that song they played in Canada is on they’re new record. I think it was called Jaw Breaker. I loved it!!!!
God Pat, why can’t I have a gift? Again, a stunning photo!
great photo :] glad to see they are back doing what they do best
i thought you guys were resting…no
wow brilliant lighting in this pic!
Ha! They’re playing Dashboard. I can tell by Johnny’s finger placement.
Behold, The Magnificence Of A Bassist. =o
he doesnt usually use a tele for dadhboard does he?
this is such a great photo, i love the symmetry :]
i don’t get why you put chains on though lol, they’re not going to help if there isn’t snow on the road.
Wow, this pic would fit right in with the artwork used for LCW.
FINNALY I GET TO SEE THIS PICTURE!!!!!!
Wow, 11 years ago. What a cozy tour bus.
Man, you guys should go back to the van
I love seeing the old pictures, along with the new.
Ah, man. The color palette in this photo is just great. It contributes so much to the tone of the pics. I totally feel the desolation of Montana.
jesus christ that had to have sucked…but you know you pulled through some how. big ass scary van….me too got the old 86 dodge ram van at the moment…till i got the money to trade it in. oh the different time life chutes the world has put us thru
@ Adam Young.
I agree so much, this picture basically makes me want to scream
“FROM THE TOP OF THE OCEAN, YEAH, TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SKY, GODDAMN”
etc etc. Everyone here should know the words anyway.
On the arctic blast
Wow. That looks almost identical to the hat I wear in marching band.Except mine has a plume.
hey MM come to Poland, many of yours fans are here
We’re still waiting. Come for Opener Festival (www.opener.pl)
Greetings
From poland
HAHAHA Great!
He’s probably wherever jeff Mangum is.
i am waiting for this “Bag Face” to scream “I AM A DRAGONFLY!!”
are u planning some tour in Europe? if so, please visit Poland. i’m dying to see u guys live, but i don’t have money to go to USA or Japan :p i know that u were in Berlin last year, but i wasn’t your fan then.. please, visit us.
=o
Looks Like Dr. Salvador…
lulz
it’s easy to save what the cannery pays, cause there ain’t no way to spend it
yeah i don’t think any real fan believed that crap. i love marr in the band and i’m sure he does too. thanks for that pat
I absolutely love this picture! I’m a big Pearl Jam fan and to have Eddie sitting and talking to my favorite band just thrills me to death. Wonderful picture.
This is a great shot. You should include when, where, what time it was shot.
Were Is Eric In this one?
P.S Hi Leanne!
I believe this picture was taken at the Mann Center in Philly on June 18, 2008 because Eddie was in town for a Pearl Jam concert and he came out and did a song with R.E.M. If someone can confirm that, that’d be great. This picture means a lot to me if it was in fact taken that night. As my friend and I were leaving the concert we walked right by the tour buses and I was convinced I saw Isaac in the window in the back of the bus holding a cigarette out the window. So we stood there in awe for like 5 minutes staring at the silhouette, then we got hungry so we grabbed some cheesesteaks and went home.
“Apples are natures apparatus”
just a great photo right here, thanks for the glimpse pat
ok, so yes the pic is great but what is even better is the green apple bowl and small jar of weed the half person is holding…nice shit there!
EPIC. Two of my favorite singers chillin’ out together.
bitchin…
session
Who ever mentions Jeff Mangum nomatter what they say is amazing and why he dosent make anymore music i will forever ask…
I agree with Leanne.
I fucking love this.
What Is Isaac Doing?
haha, weres Waldo?
what airport is this at?
he should have a sign that says something like, “ya just keep walking..”
next time im in an airport im doing that
It Looks Like Someone Did A Terrible Job At Hiding A Bodie. =o
O’Hare, right? I was there a few weeks ago. I love riding the train that goes to remote parking.
There are some good sleeps to be had under those chairs…
what is tom holding?
Will we get any new news on the ep? I think I remember reading they were trying for september… an update would be awesome.
shinklefinks
Well i’m glad someone put to words my experience EVERY TIME I see MM
It kinda looks like a massive dust bunny.
I saw modest on 3/19 in Fargo the night before We were dead came out. Me and my friends waited in the van outside playmakers all day and I ended up FRONT ROW, RIGHT IN FRONT OF ISAAC. As kick ass as that already is, I remember yelling “Isaac Brock for president,” in between songs. He looked at me, laughed, and said “No man, you wouldn’t want that. I’d be stealin’ from the company.” Isaac in true form. I’ll never forget it.
okay now that is scary!! he looks like he’s just had a bit of an insane streak..great photo though
theres a fuckin nut on the plane!…oh its tom peloso. he rocks
is it a sock puppet that resembles an octopus?
Lovin The Face. =o
Tom is such a cutie. I love the pic of him at the Murat Indianapolis, shaving….super sexy.
How Does Johnny Manage To look So Awezome All The Time?
Any news or details on the new MM album?
pLEASE TELL ME WHERE DID U READ SEPTEMBER is was on thr wikipedia and thats what it said but it could be false right?
HOLY CRAP HOLY CRAP HOLY CRAP!!!!! SEPFUCKINTEMPER 25 untitled moudest mouse EP will be found in your local music store , (pitchfork magizien) this website has been hiding it from us all along.
Modest Mouse Please be sure to make your way back up through Chicago and Milwaukee and Madison because i really enjoy watching you guys live super drunk
haha i love the mysterious hand to the right. i wonder whose hand that is O.o
They better be deciding on what cover the EP is going to have. I can’t wait much longer… argg!
And whose claw is that coming from the side?
no wonder why he is so amazing at guitar.. hes got a robot hand
You can still at least play the guitar, right?
Enjoy your rest.
peace.
nO SMOKE ONLY MIRRORS?
haha…yeah thats hilarious…fuckin made me laugh…dwarf in texas and a robotic hand… could you be a cyborg with stubby fingers?
I’d celebrate Joe Plummer Day.
where were you at???
could it be mexico?
That explains so much…
Dear Sommer, (who has been to SEVEN CONCERTS)
you SUCK!
-Madison
Dear Modest Mouse,
Please go on tour again, and play songs from Long Drive and Lonesome/Crowded and The Moon and Antarctica and not We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, which is what was played at the one and only show of yours i’ve been to (where I almost lost my voice screaming DO THE COCKROACH!!! to no avail) And more specifically, please come to Victoria BC, that would be best for me, because I am a starving student. But if you could come anywhere within a 1,000 mile radius that works too. I missed you guys in Deer Lake Park and am STILL complaining about it..
Or you could put out another album, pretty sure that would be better than ten christmases. christmasses? whatever. I would probably cry for joy and have to take a week off work.
anyways.. Best band on the planet, I mean it. Seriously!
-Madison
Wow…just wow.
great photo!
well now heres the view..
HOLY CRAP i didnt know that many people liked modest mouse can you get one to my friend i dont have any friends who like modest mouse
alright i dare someone to count all the people in this photo
i agree this picture i missing the damn plant!! that was the best part!!
great show though…. but it wasn’t my first….. more like my 10th..
awwwww
Modest Mouse! ever wonder what Maine was like? Wanna come over? I’ll make some wiked good food…
WOW!!!! One hell of a crowd right there!!!!
Well…
There is me and my friend. That’s two…. ;P
i love it when you guys come through mpls!
‘I’m going up, going over to montana. You got yourself a truckers atlas’ – don’t forget about us
Im anticipating the new EP, enjoy the time off! But if you guys tour again please hit up DFW or Austin. Thanks for the awesome tuneage!
Is that fucking levitation? I knew MM was magic.
I remember watching that shaker drop from the ceiling during Dashboard in Cincinnati and loving it. Could they not fit one more shaker onto either of the two drum sets?
When I saw you guys at the Download Festival I remember being impressed that with that thing being tossed back and forth I didn’t see it dropped once.
they threw one as well in myrtle beach, but I’m pretty sure that this picture was in cinncinnati because of the roofing in the background…
eddie looks upset… love pearl jam tho seen them twice live
IM FEELIN MM/PJ TOUR
anyone whos with me say “i”
i have that maraca set too!! haha i’m like a 5 year old. chill…
I’m in the same boat as Mechanical Bird.
my favorite song next to Teeth on the Lonesome Crowded West.
ah yes crow time….good one fellas…you know i like that fiddler peloso…i want one..
nice! great decorations and Tom looks great with a beard
This was a brilliant show thanks to a great photographer and great band!
Yeah come to Poland on Heineken opener festival 2009
Tom looks like House in this picture!!!!! lovin all the pillows
whats new for modest mouse?
Ya know… that crow photo reminds me of a movie I once saw. The horror was unbelievable. I think it was simply called, “The Birds.” They ate people!! And plucked out their eyeballs!!! Horrific, but Terrific.
wow, such a cool room…
Is this where you guys hang? What happens here?
Jeez, Tom just needs an infarction in his leg, and he’d be Dr. House.
I Like Joe’s Shoes.
Please come to Montreal !
hahaha i love the look on Joes face. i might have to put a caption on that using Microsoft Paint
happy 1st year of being posted, i went to party city today and saw the exact same mask so i bought it. when my sister came home i opened the door for her and scared the living shit outta her. MUHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Whole band rocks. Could you let me know when your tour starts. I saw you a madison square garden with REM and you guys were awesome. Can’t wait till you return to ny! Are you mixing a new album , is that what the wait is for?

Oh my God i know these guys !
PEACE FROM ABEL
Oh Isaac! You are terrific

Haha, I love it!
Woah I thought that was a slip-n-slide.
It’d be real cool if you played a show in Connecticut or New York sometime soon. When are you doing back on tour?
Enjoy your break though.
haha wow thats great.
i laughed harder at the response suggestion.
and p.s.
issac is extra terrific.
dont forget the other one ..WHats moby dick’s dads name?… A: Papa Boner…im sure everyones ones prop heard that one before.
im going to tell that joke in class tomarrow for shits and giggles!!!
Oooo, that’s very pretty…nice one Pat!
i’m really excited for this stuff. keep us up to date.
My favourite instrument
painting a pattern with the image that is seen according to a signature is really a great thing to be reminded of!
wow that symbol has had a lot of abuse
I was there in Reno drinking beer front row at the feet of greatness!
The joke was weird and disturbing but the whole ‘Everybody: Oh Isaac! You are terrific’ thing made me laugh like crazy~~~!
This is from Deer Lake Park; right? I was there!
Joe the Plummer.
Cute picture.
Oh very cute
I look forward to hearing something that you & Coby have worked on in beautiful Nelson County – we almost moved there but decided on the other side of the mountain in Staunton. I took my daughter to see MM in C’vlle for her birthday (a teen now – yikes). The show was fantastic and you looked like an adorable Pied Piper leading all the children to the tour bus.
Oh boy
Or a long drive with something to think about: get some gloves. That must have been miserable.
haha does this have anything to do with the presidential debate with Obamas speech??
xD
He’s fucking killing for fun
COME TO HALIFAX, i saw you in MTL last year, the band was amazing
Go Tom! Man I’d love to hang with you guys again sometime.. this growing up and settling down business sucks.
Bout a year or so ago I found a King Sour CD “nipple” in the CD bin at Cash Converters in Va Beach.. very surreal flashback..had to shell out a buck for it… forgot to demand they send you guys a royalty check.

im pretty sure this was taken last year when i saw them, like august some time.
i saw them at pine thearter and issac was talking something about the bumper boats across the parking lot.
the rug really pulled that room together.
Damn, where and when do you guys play next, I haven’t even been able to get to go to a single concert of you guys yet. If you guys are touring post it up and I’m there. I really want to go you guys are fucking amazing but it says your not touring yet where do i go to get some info?
-Hoover
holy shit, I’m in that picture!
i need some more st. louis pictures / especially one with the tree infront of him….
also a twelve string guitar picture would be nice or maybe some cornet?? who knows?
this picture is great. you should post a picture from the myrtle beach show because it was their first ever show in sc. And possibly if you took a picture of isaac’s finger being split open and put back together with glue or when they were playing good times waiting for his finger to heal real quick, it was so much fun.
Hey Pat, thanks for all of the great pics you post daily…I really look forward to a new one each day. I would love to see some pics of the Miami show at the Filmore. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed that show…and the venue rocked…it wasn’t over crowded (I am short so these things matter). I also was at the Miami show several years ago (Isaac mentioned it at the Filmore show) where they played at the ELKS Club!!! It was my first MM show so they could do no wrong by me!!! Anything you are willing to share would be excellent!!! THANKS!!
Dramamine was killer at that show! And you should post pics from the shows just because its the Right thing to do.
Thanks as always!
I think you should post photos from the Cincinnati show, because I spent the evening in a blissful daze, and it would be lovely to be able to revisit that night. =]
-Much Love-
yes sir…well I went to the electric factory in philly 05/03/2007. do you got any pics from that? you played with man man that night…facing the stage i was on the left side…by jonny marr. During song cities made of ashes…a guy with glasses really was punched in the face. He was right behind me…security guards came and everything. i’m not lying….also i made it back stage that night…peloso signed my shoe….i spoke briefly with isaac..and met his son Aden….and an unknow kid took a picture of us…he got my email and eventually sent me pic so i had proof of the experience. twas a good night.
Live in Indianapolis!
Well Pat,
I’ve been a MM listener for 7 years…. I have all the cds.
I finally was able to get to a concert over the summer at Myrtle Beach, SC.
They didn’t let me take a camera in, and I’d love to see some more prints of it to help me remember my first show
Pat, you should post some photos of the Mouse show at the Gorge is Washington. Why? Because the Gorge is fucking beautiful and I know you got some good shots.
Thanks man, keep the awesome pictures coming!
Hey Pat! I was at the 8/17/07 show in Northampton, front row. Despite my passion of you guys, I have only had the privilege of seeing you guys just once (so far!). I could just spot me in the last photo you posted (i think the “ra” from your name was on my shirt!), and would love to see more. It was my birthday the day you posted it, and waking up to see that picture on the site was so meaningful to me and easily made my weekend.
I was recently asked by a friend of why or what about MM I love so much, to which on the spot I thought up “lyrics, music, meaning, intensity, awesomeness!” and I just thought that it was a wonderful phrase and that maybe you guys would too. Can’t wait for the next tour (Come to Connecticut!!!)
-Jason
Hey Pat, I’d love it if you posted some more pictures from the House of Blues, Myrtle Beach, SC show (June 26, I think?). It was my second Modest Mouse show, and as far as I’ve seen from looking at old setlists, it’s the only show they’ve ever played in South Carolina. I think that’s pretty historic, don’t you? Wouldn’t want documentation of that event to be held secretive.
Plus, there’s the fact that it was just an awesome show in general. I know there’s a lot of SC fans who probably saw Modest Mouse for the first time this year and who would appreciate some more photos from the show.
post pic of the DC show!!!
you should post some pictures from the one at the south lake union naval reserve building cause i some how found out about it day of, was lucky enough to get tickets and skipped my poli sci test to go. plus first show of the we were dead tour ( me thinks)
o ya and that was the “first rock concert” ever there as we were notified. badass.
Thanks for every single photo Pat!
I would love to see some more photos from the shows in Amsterdam and Hamburg. Because it was the greatest time of my life and Modest Mouse had an extremely intensive Stage presence! I’m sure you have a bunch of awesome photos from that shows
~ take care
Hey, I’m just kind of curious if you got any shots of the Vancouver, BC show? It was kind of a short set though. And I don’t remember seeing anyone in the back poking around with a camera.
Anyways, thanks!
Modest Mouse performing in Kansas City, MO/KS with Band of Horses on Friday, August 3, 2007.
Wonderful performance.
Back on 9/26/00 MM played a random, little place called Sher-Wes Gardens outside of Baltimore City. The Shins opened and my friends and I were 5 feet from the band! Amazing stuff, I’ll never forget. Hope you’ve got some pics!
I would like to see more photos of the St. Louis show. This was my son’s first concert ever! He was right up front, we had a blast…
bonnaroo 05 got the bug Birmingham 07 got the fever nashville 07 died and went to mouse heaven. I would love to see photos from any of these.
The Nashville show at the Ryman last year was my first concert ever, of my favorite band ever, and i couldnt get any pictures because cameras werent allowed! Id love to see what i couldnt see from the last row!
More Reno pics please…because Reno’s rock shows are few and far between!!
put up some florida pics please!
Hello Pat, I would love if you posted pictures from the Miami, Myrtle Beach, and Norfolk shows from this summer because I traveled to all three in one week! The picture of Isaac and Eric signing my back in Myrtle Beach would be incredible
photo’s from the Miami show would be great because that was the first show of the tour with out REM and the guys were loving it and jammed out like 26 songs including Dramamine/Life Like Weeds! The Myrtle Beach show rocked because I was front row and Eric smiled at me and waved 
and they jammed out an amazing show. The Norfolk show was incredible because it was the first time DDBB and MM played together live and I was there to witness it! I also got extremely overheated and threw up and the person I was with got punched twice by some very large woman… I got sick during The Good Times Are Killing Me and literally the good times were killing me, and the crowd sang back and forth with Isaac so many times at the end of the song that I will never forget the echoing of all of our voices in unison.. “the goooood times are killing me”
To sum it all up, I had an amazing experience traveling from state to state this summer, meeting you, the guys, and getting to experience the music front row. I love and appreciate all of your guys’ time and dedication. If it weren’t for all of you, my mind would not think the way it does!
Definitely post more from the St. Augustine, FL show…I kept being distracted by so many crazy dancers in the crowd!! Just kidding, nothing can distract me from MM.
Also, today’s my birthday and what’s a greater gift than pictures from the St. Aug show??
yo pat, you do a great job and i know you’ve been following these guys around for years. my first MM concert was at the festival pier in penns landing, philadelphia two summers ago in late august. before i went to that show i enjoyed the music, but it wasn’t until after that show i fell in love with these guys. i remember hearing extended versions of dramamine and tiny cities which completely rocked, they just so happen to be at the top of my list for modest mouse songs. i can’t get pictures from that show anywhere so maybe you can help. that concert changed my life and my overall interpretation of music. great show, great encore.
in addition they toured with love as laughter, which is an awesome band as well..
I think you should definitely post pictures from Cinco de Mayo in 2007. That show was my first Modest Mouse show and also introduced me to Man Man which is now one of my favorite bands. Not to mention there were all kinds of people from the crowd on the stage, although regretfully I was not one of them.
Hey Pat, fantastic shots up lately, although like your instructions I would like to see some more photos from the 6/24 Orlando, Hardrock show. I don’t know if you recall but me and some buddy’s called you out before the show started near the front of the line and introduced ourselves. It would be much appreciated.
Pat, the show at the Norva was incredible. My wife and 16 yr old daughter and 12 yr old son went to NYC to see REM/MM. That show was good but when they played the Norva – GODDAM, that was a show! We live in the Atlantic City NJ area, so we racked up some miles those two weeks between NY and VA. Also, they played satellite skin at the Norva and having listened to it a lot recently, I hope they put it on the upcoming record. So, this one message should count for 4 votes for more Norva photos. Thanx and keep up the excellent work. We love the candid photos at fireworks shops and airports too.
Pat,
I actually met / annoyed you (sorry i was slightly intoxicated) at the Charlottesville show. I would love to see some pics from that show. Thanks for all that you do.
The Rostraver ice garden was epic…more pics plz
i second the rostraver request, cmon pat
ROSTRAVER! ROSTRAVER!
Hey Pat, i think you should post more pics of the Rostraver show at the Ice Gardens. I missed that show because i was camping with some friends and my friends sister could get tickets and all but i couldnt cause i was in Ohio
. im uber bummed because MM will probably never come back near the Pittsburgh area 
. and if MM is still around by the time im able to drive then there is a possibility. Gah!!
IS THAT JESUS IN THE CROWD!?! RIGHT TO THE RIGHT OF HE DUDE WITH THE :-O FACE!!
I have an even better reason to post more pictures from the Cincinnati show…
It’s my birthday today =]
-Much Love-
bet you don’t have any of them playing in Tallahassee, FL wwaaayy back in ‘04 at the Beta Bar. Man I will never forgive myself for missing them; they played four nights or something ridiculous. It should be marked as the first and last time Modest Mouse will have been in Tallahassee yo.
i would love to see some more pictures of the iowa show because it was stormy and i had tickets but couldn’t afford the fucking gasoline to get there.
You already did put up some pics from Murat Egyptian room in Indianapolis. But I’d like to see some more. I liked the “warm up” and the one of Tom before the show. Loved the show, haggled for my t-shirt, reinforcing the idea that you can haggle anywhere, for anything, with anyone.
TORONTO!!!
That was an awesome show. Totally fell in love with “Here it comes” during that gig.
Hey, great photos of the band Pat, loving the action shots of Isaac!
Got any more from the las vegas show?
I was right up front, that was a hell of a night!
Please post Cincinnati pictures!!!!!
Why? you ask….
My first concert ever.
My favorite band ever: I have all the CDs and some EPs
I was third row
It was one of the best three hours of my life
They opened with Satin in a Coffin
Some dude jumped on stage from an amp on the wall
I bought a shirt
I love your photo blog
Thank you for always posting great photos. Please, post pictures of Modest Mouse’s Performance in Japan!
I wish I could request pictures from a show I’ve been to… not having been to any doesn’t help.
Hey Pat!
I was the Treasure Island Music festival, and it was the first time I had ever seen Modest Mouse, and it was the last show of their tour. I have never been so enthralled in all my life. The most amazing moment of the whole show was at the very end of “Spitting Venom”, when Isaac throws in ” Who needs hell, when we’ve got ourselves, who needs hell, when we’ve got ourselves….what good is hell when we’ve got ourselves?” Such powerful words for such a powerful night.
Any pictures of Modest Mouse tearing up that night would be amazing!
Post some pictures from the Chicago show at the Congress!
Please post pics from rostraver. I drove 5 hours both ways just to see these lovely boys put on a show (i wasn’t disappointed) and the atmosphere was almost perfect. I heard maybe one jeer the whole time, and the 20+ song setlist was more than any mm fan could ask for. Plus I want to see if I made into any pictures : ).
As a side note, not sure if this counts for anything, but I own nearly every modest mouse vinyl ever put into print. I’m just missing the UC Diggin’ Holes 7″.
PLEASE post more photos from the myrtle beach show!!!! Why? Because MM Rocked that night (they do every time they play), MM played a song that we had not heard before and spent hours finding it because like everything else they put out it was awesome!!!!! When is King Rat coming out?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?! SC never had such a wonderful band visit us and hope MM will return! The Atlanta show was too comical (not because of MM)….MM was the BEST band at the mistle to jam!!!! Plus we want to see all the pic you took Pat….we enjoyed watching u shoot pics while the band rocked! We also LOVE your book~silent pictures!
hey, so pat i hope you get this. i read your note about telling you what gig we’ve been to. i went to the orlando show on june 24. it was awesome! for the first 2 songs isaac had his eyes wide open. i was wondering what he was on. also it was funny when he told dude to stop smoking or he’s gonna come down there. that was awesome! love you guys. i’ve only been listening to you guys for about 5 years but you still are my favorite band, you and tool.
Pat, you are a Modest Mouse fan’s wishes come true. If you have anything of the crowd from the Charlottesville, VA show then you’d be some sort of photographer messiah or something. Preferably any of the crowd right in front of the stage in front of where Johnny was playing. That area was going ABSOLUTELY NUTS the whole time. Fantastic work, by the way!
Pat, any chance you have some Maryland photos? virgin festival, merriweather? Tell the guys we are dying for the new EP!!!!! for serial
Pat, please post pix from the Minneapolis show at the Orpheum on Dec. 3, as well as the Cinco De Mayo show in Atlanta….
Hollywood bowl 2008 with REM please
i havnt seen any pics of that gig yet
Cincinnati would be great Pat. It was my first MM show and totally blew me out of the water. It was the last night a bunch of my buddies from college and I were going to be together because afterwards two left for graduate school and who knows when we’ll get to see each other again. It would be great to have another picture or two to remember our mutual love of the Mouse! Thanks!
post some pics from concert in Poland!!! oops, wait a second, there wasn’t any. but i hope i’ll see some in the future.
The shows in Nashville and Miami! I drove from Miami to Nashville to catch mm for the first time! and then in Miami I waiting like 6 hours to be first in line, only to be directed to the wrong place when they opened the doors, it sucked! Both shows were amazing, Id love to see more pics, thanks!
the tucson, az show from like last december. I bought a ticket and was going to drive down there by myself from phoenix to see the show. at the last minute my friend decided he wanted to go but you guys were all sold out. we made a counterfeit ticket for him and drove 2 hours to tucson not knowing if he could even get in. by some miracle the guy up front never even second guessed it. the show was amazing and at the end I even got one of marr’s picks! it was a really good show and really good memories.
St. Augustine show!!!
My first MM show, it was like a birthday present to myself and I didn’t have a camera with me!
Please!?
You should post pictures from the Charlottesville, VA show! Please?
NASHVILLE NASHVILLE NASHVILLE at the ryman!
PLEASE show some more pics from The House of Blues at Myrtle Beach, SC!!!! It was a great show, but cameras were not allowed in the facility. I was so excited for MM to come to my home state and I met some of the guys and you after the show! Very rememberable and I would love some pics of that night. (I did not bring a camera that night, so all I have is my memory). I would greatly appreciate it!
Hey Pat, got any more egyptians from Indianapolis? From house right? During Broke? Too specific? Dig Silent Pictures, was a gift from my husband. Epic Fugazi , could’ve had more The Shins though.
Sweet Shot, good show great scene PAt Would Love Very Very much to see more for this Show PLEASE PLEASE
Hey Pat, the show MM played in Brooklyn last year in McCarren Park Pool was incredible. I’ve never seen anything quite like that show before. Also, it was the last show ever in the pool before they closed it down!
I got to jump onstage and meet Isaac and hug him. A lot of people did the same at the Cox Arena in San
Diego in 2007. It was amazing.
Salutations Pat!
The Shins and Silversun Pickups opened up for Modest Mouse in san diego,ca in 2007!!! Just like Jacob said, I saw people go up and give the members some lovin!
Pleeeeease post em!
You guys are one of not many bands that have not sell outs … keep doing what your doing its great.. the music greated by modest mouse has many meanings of life…. i hope you guys come to LA soon …
oh my god. i was within 5 feet of johnny marr for the entirety of this show…words cannot express
More from Charlottesville!!!!! Especially ones of the crowd up front where all the guys were launching each other in the air! That show absolutely blew our minds! Thank you, Pat!
While this story is not going to be as good as the one you pointed out, Myrtle Beach should most definitely win. The show in South Carolina was a first for Modest Mouse, prior to this show we in South Carolina had to travel far and wide to see them live. Compared to past trips, anywhere in South Carolina was a walk, or drive, in the park as far a trip time goes. As a fan for years before this show, it was something amazing to be able to meet everyone that came out from the tour buses; I left the show shaking because of meeting you guys. I sincerely hope that Myrtle Beach should win because of the quality of the show, the quality of the performers, of course, and because of the atmosphere of the crowd.
Myrtle Beach is by far one of the overall trashiest spots in South Carolina, ask any native and they will explain the same thing. When it was announced that Modest Mouse would be coming to Myrtle Beach it truly took intestinal fortitude to brave the city of Myrtle Beach. Overall a small price to pay for wonderful night, but nevertheless worth mentioning. Myrtle Beach simply reeks of cheap booze, past spring breaks, and touristism; all things that are not especially the favorite things of too many fans, well except for maybe the cheap booze. Myrtle Beach and it’s suburban bleeding down the coast to towns such as Georgetown and Charleston are simply ruining the historic and native aspects to both towns. In short, Modest Mouse speaks about such things in many of their songs and in interviews given namely by Isaac.
In an ironic sort of way, it was fitting that Modest Mouse should choose to play their first show in Myrtle Beach instead of some “hipster” town like Charleston or Columbia. Both Charleston and Columbia would have been equally great shows but for them to play in Myrtle Beach it shows that: they did not care about location, it’s all for the music, and, that anyone, even Ohioans down for summer vacation, can and should indulge in some great Modest Mouse. By playing in Myrtle Beach, it was shown that music stands far above whatever social groups, states, or prior music cliques that people were a part of, Modest Mouse does not care, dance and have fun. Playing in Myrtle Beach was in no way “selling out,” that’s just stupid to think.
The show in Myrtle Beach was simply amazing and I will forever remember that night. In a decently sized venue, packed wall to wall, and all of us dancing, there is no way that Myrtle Beach was a bad show. Isaac’s finger got split open, only to be fixed with SuperGlue, and what better way to let that dry than to play “Good Times.” Simply by getting hurt and then playing “Good Times” it was a sort of representation of the attitude that this song has. There are simply few words to describe how much fun the audience were having and how much fun it seemed that the band was having. Eric was having a great time and Isaac, as usual, was giving some attitude to the audience, all of us loving it every second. The show as great, enough said.
After the show the bands that played, a certrain photographer, and the fans all got to interact outside the taped off area. A few people got to take pictures with Isaac, most everyone that wanted to got to shake his hand and say a few things and, not to diminish the importance in any way of the other band members, but we also got to hang out with them for a bit. Of course you all could have gone into the buses and sat around waiting to leave, but you guys instead came out and spoke with us and showed that you wanted to hear what we had to say. By no means was Modest Mouse’s performance at Rostrover inferior, it was simply that Myrtle Beach was unforgettably wonderful for South Carolina. Thank you so much for all that you do Pat.
I would like to see more Deer Lake Park (Burnaby, BC) show pictures! As for stories, these dudes infront of me actually snuck in a wedge of cheese. Ha ha, I don’t know; I was laughing.
Hahaha Aubre got the best comment! GOOD FOR YOU GIRL!
Rostraver beats Myrtle Beach in my family any day and Pat knows why.
I would definitely like to see more pictures from Bogarts in Cincinnati! Waiting 5 hours in downtown Cincinnati for the show was great, but it was made even better by stumbling across my favorite band in the alley after the show! =]
Thanks Pat,
Hailey
oh.. i would like to see some pictures from wrocław in poland, but unfortunetly you were here only in my dreams.
of course i’m glad watching every photo even if it makes me sometimes sad because i will never taste something like that.
photos are really stunning. brawo!
San Diego cause i was there homie. No story to tell I would just love to see some pics
POST EM’ ALL!!! But the Nashville, Rothbury, or Atlanta (2007) shows would be nice to see..
Oh Isaac, you really are Terrific.
Modest Mouse is just AWESOME!
hey Pat really your doing a really great job! thank you for all the amazing pictures.
It would be really cool if you could show more pix from st. louis and Issac in his straw hat or the tree bit
thanks and keep em comin
hysterical.
Indianapolis please. It was my understanding that it was only MMs 2nd time in 10 years playing in Indiana….so please come back and play some more from M & A and BNOOS. Rollins says they treat you right at Murat. I missed the Bogart’s show but I LOVE that venue so it would be cool to see those ‘nati pics too.
YEY! Thanks for the new pics! I know what mums getting for christmas!
some pics from philly would be cool..the pouring down rain or something
fuck all this…i didnt make any shows this year…so i have nothing to feel proud of with these shots.
Please post some pics from the chicago show at the congress! It was both one of the best days of my life and one of the worst.
Holiday Special?
More from the Council Bluffs, Iowa show.
I drove 6 1/2 hours from St. Louis to see MM for my 3rd time.
I was going to camp at a campground, that rain storm was incredible. Powerful.
Drank beers in the car until the rain gave up, broke through the fence with the buddy i was with (his first time seeing MM) and made our way throuhg the 4 inch rain puddle on the ground and saw an amazing set which I wish went on until the early morning…
More of those pictures please!
Post More Orlando Pix PLEASE!!!
Yeah yeah.Come Down To New Zealand, It Goes Off Down Here< And We Got A Mean Indoor Arena In Auckland!!
I love the lighting in this pic. god damn i wish i was there!!!!
I would dance, dance,dance, go crazy, dance, and i dance, and dance and go crazy!
why thank you sir!
I think you should post pictures from Cincinnati because it was a great show in a fairly small venue, and it gave the whole thing a really personal vibe.
Hope to see some more picures soon! =]
Post more orlando pictures because it was the greatest set ever played! I woke up with my alarm playing Custom Concern. It was the very last song they played. The best song to begin and end your day. Also because Isaac is the most lively and inexorabe performer I have ever seen. Please. More Orlando Pictures!
all the better, i didn’t even notice, anywho i was glad to hear it even if thats the only reason they did
his tatoos are sick as fuck, I love him
I could not have asked for a better set. but i would like to say that the city of orlando owes modest mouse an apology for being assholes. I had to leave the floor. it was the worst crowd of punks i had ever stood amongst.
i like to look at the reflections on the glass of pictures its kinda cool. MM should deffinately incorperate Crazy Gnome into one of their posters.
FINE! IGNORE ME!
Chris,
I will get there..I’m posting in order of most requests…
Cheers, Pat
i really hope you guys come to the beaumont or greater houston area. i need some modest mouse in my life!
Hey Pat, put up those pictures from the parking lot nap!
oh and…I’m the dude behind the pole next to the guy in the bright green hat.
Do you have any pictures from Texas? I really wish they would come back in Houston its been 3 years since..But they played in Austin,TX last year in May and it was an epic show with rain.
Miami!
Great picture! Hopefully theres more! Thanks!
I just came across this picture thru a link on Wikipedia. I love this photo and I’m a big fan of Interpol. I’m glad I found this picture. Thanks!
aw man…you just let that peep…play with you just like that. good times are fucking me.
So cool!!
good thing u got that anchor with ya
March Into the Sea
tell me another story from the sea.
Beautiful picture. I might have to make this my desktop picture. Feel free to drop by the board anytime. Any news on the EP?!
Looking good Isaac.
jeremiah rocks…thank all of you men for sticking through all of these years and playing your beautiful tunes..
If I saw Isaac Brock at an ocean like that I don’t know what I’d do.
this is really cool. I feel like this photo holds more depth than i will ever know
i wish i could have experienced this…
is that noah’s ark out there!? har
Hi Sandra!
I got some amazing vids of Isaac from the front row of the concert. I uploaded the best sounding one (The World At Large) to my blog (http://katuwapitiya.com/?p=237). I hope you enjoy it! (It really took a while to upload, lol)
Thanks for the linkage! Seems like the vid has spread like wildfire all thanks to you! The more people who see this amazingness, the better! Cheers!
I agree with Leanne @ this picture being beautiful enough to act as the background for all my computer-based work endeavors.
Pat, you ought to post some high res ballin’ MM shots for desktop use. Save some 1280×800 res images for us MacBook folk!
Wowzers!!!!! What a great pic…thanks sooo much Pat!!!! I sincerely hope they come back and sooooooon!!!!
Bahaha!! what a great shot!!!
still taking requests, Pat? I’m hoping for more pics from the Ryman show. if I were a greedy man, I might say it’s because we met the guys in the alley before the show and I saw you taking a ton of pics, so I know you’ve got them. or perhaps vain: “we were down by the stage in front of the legendary Mr. Marr. I was wearing a blah blah blah shirt and I’d love to see myself posted on MM’s website.” alas, I’m taking the high road here and asking for more pictures from the Ryman show because it’s the RYMAN – the Mother Church of American Music!!! and don’t we all owe the Ryman a little something extra? Thanks, Pat…I know you’ll do the right thing.
cool beans. i hope you guys come back too!
thats a really cool picture. see? miami is the best!
bitchin
Crack is Whack!
hah thats clever
What a great shot. This picture makes me laugh.
Awesome. XD Was this before or after the show?
rows of lights to aluminate lines, I saw you guys sometime in 2007 atpromowest in columbus, old dude told somebody to get the fuck off the stage during some song? shit was epic , anyways, you dudes are my favorite shit ! Dont change Yo! come back to Cleveland I need a fix. Peace
Great great photo. I love all the faces.
loving the long hair!
This IS a great pic…it needs to go on the RVCA website as well…represent!!!
i absolutely love it wen he talks into his gee-tar.
i have no idea wat he’s saying but i like it.
please post some pics from Abluquerque, NM, puh-leez
The audience reactions in the first row are great.
I’m in this one too! See the red haired dude cheering, I’m the dumbfounded girl directly behind him! Yay! I already bought this picture its hanging in my bedroom wall looking absolutely awesome! Well done Pat!
That is simply magical…
On today’s homepage, who is the hottie driving the golf cart? ~Stephanie
You should post more of this beautiful show. Maybe we can see a picture of us dancing with Isaac..
Heard modest mouse jamming out last night … some time around 3:00 a.m. Hells. Yes.
gah! i absolutely love this photo!! this is probably one of your best live shots Pat.
also the store has been down for like ever… is it being updated or something??
I love this picture. Its one of my favorites.
if you’re still taking votes i was deffinately going to put one in for Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
It was my first time seeing MM and it was amazing. I was in the very front row where there are two pictures i see myself in which is awesome. I had some dude who was basically sweating on me which when i think about it is pretty gross, but didn’t even bother me just thinkin i was at this concert.
Me and some other dude also tried to pick my friend up to crowd surf, which only lasted about two seconds before plunging to the ground.
so anyways, Modest Mouse should definately come back again when on tour next year or somewhere atleast close to south carolina and i’ll definately be there again.
is there any instrument that you guys don’t use?
Hello Pat!
Could you post photos from the show at the Egyptian Room in Indianapolis on 11/12/07 ? It was the third show of three that I saw in 3 nights along with a couple others. That night was my younger sisters first Modest Mouse show! It was an incredible show and Indy is my home town!
Thank you for continuing to update
Pat, will you also inform the guys that I would love if they were to practice Life Like Weeds and play it during the next tour
I’m pretty sure I’m behind the dude with his fist up, hard to tell. Anyways thanks for uploading these Orlando pics, it was nice meeting you Pat.
Great pic. I love the guy in the crowd cheering.
Er, deity that is….
Isaac is just about the coolest dude in the world
can’t wait for the next tour!! go MM!
Ikes Shoes = God
Ike= Godlier
Oh! Poor Chris! I just have to remark on how sincerely nice you are, Pat…I love the comments almost as much as the pictures! Thank you again and again…
Sometimes it is hard for me to conceive of how you guys produce such incredible sounds. Thank you.
You guys playing any small shows in Seattle when you guys come home? Home is calling for you guys to come back!!
New Videos!! Thanks Sean and Pat for sharing that
Makes me happy!!!
Merry Christmas!!
haha this pic cracks me up. Ikes face is priceless!
the shirt explains it all
this is an awesome photo. I am astonished I am the first to comment on it!
Man Man and Modest Mouse should tour together next time there is a tour. Both are such incredible performances. And the guys really did a great job at diversifying each shows set lists. They really proved to us all that they are extremely talented artists who don’t just play the new songs. Which, I am soooo excited to hear the newest!!!!!
this is soo funny. making me laugh out loud here Pat!
i want to be there.
that’s neat
this is a fascinating effect! what are the dots?
that sky is outrageous, and i bet isaac driving 160 is beyond my imagination
oh my gosh, is that the real stone henge? that is an awesome photo Pat! you are so creative and have an amazing eye for photos.
isaac is born on the day of wonder. he would be. and he shares a birthday with oj simpson.
so happy I was there to experience this, and thanks for catchin me in the corner!!
is that an alligators paw? its definitely a munchies moment
Myrtle Beach!
Hey what’s up modest mouse! I’ve loved your band for years. I used the put on “moon in antartica” and make collages about the music. I went to a show once in phili a few years back .after the show Isaac signed my friends shirt and I gave him a cig…. Anyways it was at that moment I fell in love…..I’ll always be a modest mouse fan. I like the song “Bukowski” from your recent work. Until recently, I never knew what the name “modest mouse” meant, despite being an avid reader of Virginia Wolfe’s work. …. Virginia Wolfe’s story the “hole in the wall” has not only changed the way I look at walls, she has enlivened a new prospective about thinking creatively…being thrilled by nothing more than one’s thoughts, so that you no longer regret waking up in the morning.
new mexico pics, please!
i really like the 3rd photo
happy new year!
very awsome photos pat. and yes indeed the 3rd photo is sweet
Happy New Year!!
Great photo, i love seeing some photos from MM’s early years.

Whoa! Sans facial scruff.
Awesome pic! I love seeing old stuff like this..so cool

I Love the old pics alot. you should post more of the oldies!!!
This is the dose of Modest Mouse and Man Man I’ve been craving for the past week. Awesome.

I always love pictures of Isaac with the banjo.
yah!!!!
awesome pic
THANKS PAT
awezommmmmmme!
THANKS PAT

those tots look fantastic
congrats on starting ur own side project thing-a-ma-gig. can’t wait for the release. im gonna buy immeadeatly.
Hi, I´m just wondering when or if you guys are gonna play in Sweden?
Best regars,
Simon
tom rules!!!!!!!
Tom look even more scrumptious than that breakfast. ACL rules!
isaaquah …its flooded.
peloso…your the man…and the leaves and trees and the things we see…very catchy….i cant….something something.
Those things are so awesome. My nephew has one just like that.
Ah, Tom the Swiss Army knife. You never disappoint, for I enjoyed your tune.
“Float On” touch my heart lolololo thats a great song !
greets!!
Is that a Hawken?
Jeremy looks hynotized..
by the way what the hell is that thing??
looks awesome. when is MM touring again, i need my fix!
Awesome stuff!
Can anyone tell me how I can get another copy of Nipple? Some jerk stole mine along with my entire CD collection. Forget the rest of my collection, just gimme my King Sour cd back!
looks like the Canabis-Man
Hey Isaac I know your never going to read this, but nice haircut.
and why does it take two people to take a photograph? (look at the reflections)
but anyway these pictures are always really cool and sometimes random.
i wonder what’s playing??
a lil MGMT or Man Man?
sweet shirt
look at all those stickers……
is this backstage? does each band leave a sticker?
Ice cream in a bar?? bad form – takes up valuable drinking space
Is that coca cola?
And, apparently, this is in Italy?
ice cream or gelato? and out of curiosity, what flavors?
Hmm…a Nikon user I see. D700?
isaac, gonna tell you…i¡m from argentine…tucuman…and im sure i¡ve heard broke in a remote place among the montains at 4000mts right here. but please understand me…it was the wind running trought those trees and the river down there…i loved it and i wished i could catch that sound…jus to share it with another human being…it s strange but i think that the song was travelling through the earth and, as the old americans natives, you developed your spirit just to listen and play it…thanks
haha Johnny looks like hes really enjoying that ice cream haha!
oh! you took the picture with a mirror. i thought it was through a window or something. I can see the camera now.
great photo! Gelato kicks our ice cream’s butt!
the only good thing on, eh?
well maybe just the best thing on.

haha hes probably thinking
“tiiiinnyyy ccciiittiiieesss…..”
That’s enough break gentlemen…Reno misses you!
What show is that video from?
time is up guys. its going on 3 years since we texan have seen ya’ll. com-on back soon.
Wow, Isaac sure looks worn out here. Concerts must be exhausting!
What I wouldn’t do to have Modest Mouse come play in Toronto!
You guys are my absolute favourite band of all time. I love your music! Every album is awesome, I have them all. I only wish that you’d come down to Toronto, Canada and play. I swear, I’d die if you did.
I’m sure you get so many comments from so many fans and I’m sure it gets annoying, but I have to say how much I love you and your music. Modest Mouse is the best
Hey Pat, when are you going to post more tour dates!?! PLEASE come back to Pittsburgh!!! I need to see MM live in order for my life to be complete!
When is modest mouse starting a new tour? a new album? What’s going on right now?
when i looked out the window of my color tv, i didn’t think that the only color it showed was green!
Do not watch so close, it is bad for your eyes.
Hey JoeMack, I think its just taking them a while to put the new EP out but im not positive. a while back when the origional info was posted it said that it was being mixed. hopefully we’ll get some new news sooner or later. im not sure.
try the cowboy hat in the back.. plummer.
i was just thinking…ugly cassanova’s song sha sha sha sha…might mean shaman…from an indian…chanter you know…like that song by the doors…my love went riding…she rode through the day a…something like that. they are indian chants like….must be a spirit thing mixed up in rock and roll…i guess
i read somewhere that isaac got that sha sha sha sha! thing from an old lithuanian record that was layin around his house when he was young. i’m not sure it’s true. could just be internet gossip, but that’s what i heard.
You seem to have broke the pattern. You did something with everybody, but now you’ve done TWO things with Joe!
I love that fluffy ball!
Great picture, nice angle.
I like his shirt.
I love this picture.
Awesome picture. Loftus looks fascinated.
Joe is adorable.
I second that, your fans from texas need you guys. The whale song would blow minds
If you guys play in Canada I’d go from the top of the ocean to the bottom of the sky to see it
YES! Great show.
Really cool, sounds real edgy and feels good akin to a good trip.I want more.
love the pic
actually I live in the town next over.
thus the “or near it” when i put my mouse over the pic.
C’mon! What would it take for you guys to come towards New England! You’re so far out of the way right now!!!!!
Come to Maine, or Mass, or something! Please!
I can’t wait. Hope you come back to Ohio!!!!! This time go to Dayton Like the Nutter Center, or that one place on the River in Cincy.{River Bend I think}
Bloomington, Indiana, Please and thank you
the magic bus.
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm! I think you forgot about the best state in the the US. Oregon. We miss you come back. Dying to here he new stuff.
bitchin….
Nikki doesnt know what shes talking about. WHEN you come back to Ohio play at Blossom. I saw Radiohead there, and its absolutely gorgeous.
This text http://www.wksu.org/features/blossom06/images/1.gif
east coast baby! come anywhere near new jersey philly new york i will travel!!!!! please please please! i have like 25 friends who would love to go too its not just me i swear! easttt coasttt!!!
maryland or d.c. please
Come to CLeveland! Please! The Agora Theater is an awsome place. The Odeon is OK but not that great. Time warner Ampitheater is a cool atmosphere but probably very cold in the winter. You can play in my back yard if you want…Just somewhere close…Akron or Kent would be awsome too.
Awesome!!!! See ya at Langerado!!!!!!
You’re not coming to MY town! You guys used to come to Detroit all the time. We haven’t had a good band here in 6 months!
Yhay, your commin to my town!
i guess that thats what i get for living near the 2nd largest city in the US.
don’t forget about all these guys, guy! and Oregon is cool.
visalia seems pretty random, but i know handsome furs stopped there last year, so there must be some scene there other than the farmers with bud cans
add more tour dates later. thanks!
I think Kentcuky needs another visit. We don’t get anything but horses…
please come to the obx of nc!!!!
Ooo hail, how fun.
come to winnemucca!!!
Yeeeeeee! MM is back on tour!
damn, lots of requests haha
Dear Modest Mouse,
How the fuck can you go to VISALIA, and not Portland?! You have such a better demographic here. You’re loved to the moon and back. Going to Visalia is a great idea to reap all that untapped Central CA energy, but please consider a proper show back in the Northwest. We’re still boiling.
OMJesus! I may get to go to the Atlanta concert! I don’t care if I live all the way in Kentcuky, I’m going to go!
Modest Mouse, ya’ll need to come to new Orleans !!!!!
Bloomington, IN Please and thank you
I can not make it to any of the shows…You guys should come to Bloomington, many humans would gather to listen to you jam. Especially Me.
You guys need to come back to Virginia, or somewhere near here….Please?
i live in fresno. but thanks for comming to visalia! i can’t wait to dance the night away !!!
THANNNNK YOU !!!!!!!
SEE YOU ON THE 23RD
Ok, so the Langerado is canceled…I sure as hell hope this doesn’t mean you are skipping South Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mizner Park in Boca is a excellent venue!!!!
Relief! I got my tickets for Albuquerque and Phoenix! I was having such bad Modest Mouse withdrawls!
You should go somewhere near Maple Grove, Minnesota. Just not too far away! (:
I just like the pee pees in the background haha; what’s with that? (:
please come to Indiana ^-^
D.C.
anything from maryland or philly pat, like those bike cop photos from merriweather!!!!……hilarious
Nashville would be swell!
Kentucky!
Sasquatch 2008 would be wonderful.
Hey Pat! Could you post pictures of the concert that Modest Mouse will play in Oakland, California on February 22 after the concert is over? I will be going to that show and it would be nice to see some current tour photos of the band.
Your pictures of the band are incredible. I’m a huge fan. I know that the band is constantly traveling with the tour but is there any place where I can send them like a letter or anything? Just wondering if you had an address. Thanks, and keep up the great work
!
Do you have any photos of the Show at the Cox Arena in San Diego 2007 when a bunch of people jumped onstage?
Nashville!!!
Raleigh! The one picture of Johnny with the sunset is great, I’d love to see more.

The Miami Show…that was a great time and show!!! Also, can you please talk to them and tell them that coming to South Florida, even though the Langerado is canceled, is a REALLY good idea……..
Pat, could you please include some shots from the Minneapolis Orpheum show? We’ve yet to see any, and it was such a great show.

Rostraver!!! when is this zine coming out? is it going to be online or an actual magazine??

How about Spokane, Wa?
vancouver please!
Do you have any Chicago pics? Please?

The Sold-Out NORVA show in Norfolk, Va… I couldnt get a Ticket But I hung around outside hahah… My friends say it was AWESOME

St. Paul please. Keep up the great shots!
Miami please!!!!!
Oh, and why was Langerado cancelled?!?!? Pleeeeeaaaaaassseeeee add some more Florida tour dates!
you should take some pic’s of the polish wedding hall in miami!! that would be classic,,, ill never forget that show. – Cant get far enough from florida
Will it be sold along with the other merchandise before the show? I’m just trying to think how I’m going to carry it on me the whole time, haha.
NY,NY!
Modest mouse is the best!
June 30 in Rostraver!
Maybe one where you can see the rink and all the fans.
I was right up front. (: (: (:

Hey pat, id love to see some photos from phili at the mann center
How ’bout a few more shots from The Pool in Brooklyn, Sept. 07?? =-)
St. Louiee – July 1, 2008
You should put the picture where Ike tosses his guitar with mic in hand.
And Jeremy as the botanist
Rothbury would be pretty lovely!
Gotta put some pics from the myrtle beach show. March 10th can’t come soon enough
Charlottesville, June 29! It was a fantastic concert!
I second Charlottesville, June 29…fantastic show.
hey just heard and bought a pair of tix for your 3/8 at Revolution”s. Will REM be with you or not cause they had no info on that for us. PeAcE

no rem…
ROTHBURY PLEASE
If you have any good Albuquerque photos, you should include some. This concert’s gonna AWSOME!!!!
I think your looking at the last year tour dates..
Definitely the charlottesville concert. It was the best concert ive ever seen!!!!!
How about that picture you posted from Myrtle Beach when they were playing “The Good Times are Killing Me” while the glue on Isaac’s finger was drying? I think that’s my favorite from the ones you’ve posted from that show.
And for the record, I love the photozine idea. I know I’ll be picking one up in Atlanta.
Thats no uke. Its a brockaleleleleeelee. That insrtument BETTER be on the new EP or I’ll be pissed! Nice kicks.
Orlando! The ones you posted of Isaac from there were awesome
There is going to be a sold out show in Oxford MS, at the lyric. To my knowledge this was the first show to sell out on the tour schedule. It would be friggin SWEET if some pics of that show could get posted.
out of gas
Your band is so awesome! I never heard of you until recently & I really love the music & songs!!!!! Gotta come to Dallas one time!
You are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ake eke ike oke uke!
Isaac you silly bastad, thats not how you fix a toaster! Love all the Modesty in my mice man, thank the band and yourself.
-Coz
could you bring along the picture of isaac play the gutair with his mouth in orlando… i love that one
why the hell is the fruit that ate itself out of print?
Ha hell ya!!! I love this shot! As much as I do listen to the “old stuff” I love any music made by Issac and the boys. This should be the single cover for Ocean breathes Salty… Where the ocean met the sky and time and life shook hands and said goodbye. My god I can’t wait til theyre in Baltimore on the 12th
Ha Eric looks blazed faced as hell! Good to see the guys stayin away from the fiend drugs and sticking to some good old MAry J. Not that their’s anything the matter with a little dabble in this day
Great to see him behind any instrument! Good things are still to come with these guys I can just feel it in my bones. Love your music Issac and would really love to meet you someday man
You’ll here me soon enough in Orlando.
Pat, this pictures rad, how current are the pictures you post in relation to what the band is actually doing?
what?, you didn’t hear me the first time? i said I WANT THE NEW EP TO COME OUT!
Well when I’m with the band I post photos taken minutes to a few hours after they are taken…
While off tour the posts are form the archive.
Posts will be as of the moment starting on Sunday night…stay tunned.
Modest Mouse is by far my favorite band, they need to come to seattle!
I hear what you’re saying, it sounds fine
For just a touch, it sounds fine
^ i love that song
omg omg omg!!
I can’t hear you talk about your dreams involving me…i don’t believe that they are any sort of prophecy at all…
You NEED to come back to Charlottesville!
All of these pictures capture their true identity and you can really grasp that through their music and lyrics
just now a new fan of theirs!!!! They gotta come out to the house of blues in Dallas Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have been heard in Texas and love it!!!!!!!!!!
Texas wants another tour date!!!!!!
(march 5th is open by the by)
were bigger than you thought
oh yeah and your music makes life at least 70% better
You shall hear from teh Californians.
“It’s Taco Tuesday.”

I agree with Abby, I was a few hours late on getting an Austin ticket.
Your music is awesome! btw im lovin the new stuff too, cant wait for the ep!
COME TO VIRGINIA!!!
Atlanta please!
athens, ga would fire it up for some modest mouse!

oh my good god
Oh god!
Only four more sleeps until Eugene, Oregon. I can’t wait!
haha that video is SO CUTE! love the imitation of pee part LOL
i thought mice were supposed to be afraid of cats…
Good to know other people’s kids are imitating bad porno music (bow wow chinka wow wow!) thanks to the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie…
you were in Canada and i missed it? damn.. thats the whole point of my facebook group!
HAha. It’s even funnier in it’s entiriety. I saw it on the soup but it was shortened.
I love your twitter Pat!
Ha! Tom I have the SAME bracelet as you..except I have one! I love that bracelet!
release the spit valve!! over the sink, over the sink!!!
Hey, can you post the front row picture (I was there!)? I’ve seen it on that imagewebsite, but i’d like to see a larger version without that caption on it.
Thanks
someone seriously needs to invent the better spit valve….
Ah!!! Best “Practice Space” in PDX…. Luv me that Ballroom! I’m havin a flashback to March 2007… Eugene is gonna rock!!!
So excited about the upcoming tour! Can’t wait till Atlanta!!
I am very excited for the AZ show, right before my 18th birthday best surprise ever! Seeing this is making me happy! Im gonna show up early and hope you grace me and come sign my small LP collection of Modest Mouse records.. Issac, Jeremiah, Tom you are an absolute inspiration and I admire your art form. Pat keep up with the awesome pictures!
i want it
it looks great pat.
Thanks Owen…I will save one for ya.
takes my breath away
awesome!!!!!!!! love all the pictures
Why did you choose KC instead of St. Louis.
I want to hear some night on the sun. How about you get Sean or some one to record and tape some of the live stuff that they haven’t played in a long time or some of the new stuff on this tour.
thanks Pat. I will save you one of mine too!
freeze your blood and then stab it into in two, stab your blood into me and blend
cant wait til philly show
Crystal Ballroom?
..your hopelessly..hopeless..or hopes arern’t for you…
so turn out the lights…cause its night on the sun…your hopelessly hopeless and hopes aren’t for you. im sorry we all know those lyrics but i had to type the song through my fingers for some reason
What are you trying to say PAT!
only 1000, hmmm, I hope there are still some once MM rolls aroun to Philly.
no, no, no,turn OFF the lights! ‘Cause it’s night on the sun!
“At mm band practice, hearing some songs not heard live for 10 years.
about 23 hours ago from txt”
sounds like a good sign for the tour, see you in eugene :p
Hmm, I’ve always thought the lyrics were “You’re hopelessly hopeless/ I hope so, for you.”
ha!
i can’t wait to rub this into my friends faces! the ones that like bright eyes! I’ll be like, Ha, Modest Mouse is Dark eyes!
for 10 bucks, this is well worth it. grab it now before the only place to find it is on ebay for buku dinero. looks very rad… can’t wait to get it
Someone get me a towel.
pat, you and mm are so awesome. and yes i ordered my fanzine!!!
I really want one. it looks fantastic.
I have seen modest mouse seven times and in four different states and have tickets for the Baltimore show in March (so excited). So much of my life has been accompanied by the tunes that you guys have composed. The show that sticks out most vividly in my mind would have to be the day you played at Virgin Mobile Fest in Baltimore. It was like 100 degrees all day and you guys were 2nd to last on the smaller stage (which I feel was unjust). You were the only reason I bought the outrageously expensive tickets and traveled the 5 hours from Pittsburgh to Baltimore. I had been drinking, smoking, and eating drugs all day and could barely stand by the time you guys got on stage. If i recall you were a little late but I didn’t give a shit. You played my favorite song, Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset. I don’t know if it was the drugs or the alcohol but I cried and then threw up. Hahaha It was amazing. Thank you for that moment in my life that I will always remember!
With love from the keystone state
Gotta come to Dallas Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
may be then I can get some tickets for a show since you are sold out at Austin this March
yes, crystal ballroom!
Hey Pat, thanks for the amazing pictures. Oh, you should tell sean to post videos of some stuff they haven’t played in a while/have never played since all the shows near me sold out before I could get parental permission.
Will MM add more tour dates? Why aren’t they coming to Boston….or even better, New Hampshire????
How cool is that?!
Are you pulling a vampire weekend?
Looks like a regular guitar but still cool
oh well im hopelessly hopeless and hopes aren’t for me…so what
yeah..but its kind of a soft book…card stock paper.
yes if you want to order from out of the usa just email them direct here info@raenoptics.com
And Canada is featured in the book.
looking damn good!!
I am with your cornbread, next to your electric bass!
Thanks so much Pat! Love your work.
Man would have loved to have been there to hear in person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
where is j. marr???
I see myself! Haha. Great show boys.
recording with the cribs…he is missed and will be back
what is it?? anyway, sounds pretty damn good
so, how early do you have to be there to get in the front row?
i never knew about that pumpkin tatoo!
I like how that guy there has a video right up to ike’s face.
that crowd is thicker than a mob of zombies!
that shirt is very eye catching!
Never ride a tour bus without your tomahawk, it’s way riskier than they let on.
Now I’m expecting that tomahawk throwing is part of the set in Orlando. Duel wielding axes, nice!
Pat, your really need to give him some space!
Hi, Im Isaac do you wanna play?
Awesome! but someone please remember to hide them from him when he gets drunk! THAT would be scary as hell to meet in some back alley at 3am
Isaac PLEASE do not cut your fingers AGAIN…..and super glue ‘em back together ….
its fckin awesome
Awesome. Like the hat.
Im so grateful you guys are playing the songs you played last night. That is incredible….you are all so brilliant and I appreciate you all. Please come to Indianapolis or Bloomington! Specifically Bloomington..I wish to see you guys so badly!
Ah!
My god!
Look at that man’s eyes!
What a great show. So many of my favorites were played. The crowd was very crazy.
Love all your pictures and your work is brilliant!!!! You are greatly appreciated for bringing to us the latest news going on and behind the scenes while they are on tour (those are cool to look at). Love reading what is going on almost 24/7 while touring.
back off crazy fans
Modest Mouse. In Eugene. On a Friday? Awesome. You guys seriously rocked. Thanks for the great show! <3
So when will the store be working again? There was a t-shirt i had really wanted to order but I cannot find it anywhere else.
“Oldboy” minus the hammer?
I just ordered mine… I can’t wait to get it!
Thanks, Pat!
Its great they played Baby Blue Sedan.
i wonder what #3 is. The? the good times? The view?
Great show… and Isaac, thanks for The Orion plug. It was the first time I had the opportunity to see you guys after being a fan since the Moon days, it was awesome. Also the encore was Missed the Boat, Custom Concern, Breakthrough and Black Cadillacs.
It will be either the view or the air. Probably.
I love that picture of Eric…LOL
It’s probably the view, since Good Times are second last.
the air? haha unlikely
deodardave, I do believe number 3 was “The View.” A couple people on ModMouse have mentioned that “Steam Engenious” was played as well. Any confirmation of this?
And of course, thanks for the setlist, Pat!
#3 was the view. the encore was missed the boat, custom concern, breakthrough (very badass, by the way) and black cadillacs.
Looks amazing. Can I make a request through you, Pat? Never Ending Math Equation? And Out of Gas? And Talking Shit about a Pretty Sunset? Actually, can you ask them to just play their entire repertoire? I think that’s the only thing that will satisfy me. Thanks! See you in NYC!
By the way… Mr. D has an interesting setup there and very cool how he remakes historical weapons. My husband wishes he would also remake video game swords though.
You need more tour dates…like pronto.
I’d kill to go to a MM concert and they played Baby Blue Sedan.
Deodardave, pretty sure it’s the view considering good times below it.
please tell me someone (sean) recorded this show!
#3 was The View
they rocked it!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE ORLANDO PIC I HOPE I CAN BUY IT!!!=)
You totally forgot me!
Kaos pads are the best I have the KP3 and the kaosillator amazing machines I can’t believe my favorite band jams around with em too!
Nice Bowl!
Greeeeeen
Where did he get the beaded bracelet???
i have no idea what that equipment is but i do know what the orange bowl of love is…
Let me guess: Michael Phelps and JMG?
Looks like Jeremiah has all the essentials there…
i have no idea what any of that is.
Great show, I enjoyed it from the front row of the balcony with a cold beer.
Had to laugh when Isaac bought punched that crazy skinny chick.
i love riding bikes
Oh man! Is that a Kaossilator?
Right on =]
Those things are trippy as fuck…
I want a Koassilater so bad now that its not even funny. Those things are so fing sweet.
Beautiful photo…makes me feel like I am there. Thank you, Pat.
What a beautiful picture, its stunning. I ordered Silent Pictures book and got it in the mail today!
that is a kick ass photo!!!!
hym…..
dark center of the universe… or the land’s colourful patchwork?
I cant wait to see you tomarrow!!!!!!!!!!!
ill be in the front with the “Never Ending Math Equation” T-shirt!!!!!
I’m down here in San Diego. Wish I could see you guys at Los Angeles, but unfortunately I can’t.
So close but yet so far.
Dudes, Come to OHIO!
I love how you used the rochester armory concert as the background! probably since i was there! I love your photos
Ps. Come back to rochester…please?
They got 3rd planet!
lucky!…
this is must’ve been a great concert!
When you travel from OK City to Austin won’t look anything like this (beautiful) I wont get to see MM @ Austin but wish you would make an appearance @ The House of Blues which is closer to me …. love all your pictures!!!!!!! Keep up the great work!
Something makes me think of The Fruit that Ate Itself cover.
oh my god, i want it also, but i’m from austria. bad luck, eh? anyone got an idea, how i can get it without learning the secret knowledge of beaming? it’s so unfair sometimes, not being an american. but it’s really more unfair, that there still is no news about the long announced new ep.
Raen will accept over seas orders just email them
here: info@raenoptics.com
I believe they have a few left..
-Pat
wow, great shot! i like the perspective. my new desktop wallpaper, thanks
One of my friends was tripping acid one day. We started talking about how we see things in life. My tripping friend starting freaking out, and apologized for rambling so long about things that proabably didn’t make sense to me, in the real life. I said to him “It’s okay. Its like that Modest Mouse song ‘i ran my mouth off a bit too much oh what did i say. Well you just laughed it off it was all okay.” FLOAT ON!
i love you mouse. really.. : )
This is a pretty sweet picture, I know this view well. Any chance you’ve posted Oakland pictures somewhere in the realm of cyberspace yet?
Hey! i can not wait to see you at revolution in ft lauderdale on March 8th. The line for your last couple shows have been genius( third planet) seriously im going to be jamming.But iff i could make a small request to play The Ocean Breathes Salty ( that is the first song that ever turned me on to the band), Polar Opposites, and i would love the World at large c(: i know im being pushy i know regardless i will enjoy the show. Any would be great!!!!!!
Till then
xo
I was at the show in Myrtle and stuck around afterward. I was quite amazed at how cordial and generous the guys were with their time. I still cannot get over how great the show was!!! It6’s amazing to me that it was the first time in SC. Hope you make it back guys!!! I have the luck of being able to go to Raleigh in two weeks. Thanks for being on the road!
For my 17th birthday my mom surprised when she showed me the tickets to the Modest Mouse concert. I never thought it was gonna happen for two reasons, one, i live in Sacramento and the concert was in Oakland, and two, because we are being evicted from our home and have very little money. I was super excited to see you guys because Modest Mouse is my all time favorite band. Isaac Brock is my hero no doubt about it.
So when that sunday came my mom and my step dad gave me a what money they had and drove my friend and i down to the Fox Theater in Oakland.
When we got there, the line for t-shirts and cd’s was ridiculous but hopped in it anyways. I bought a shirt and then went to the floor to try and make my way to as close as i could get to the stage. When i got as close as i could my friend and i waited. Felt like forever for MM to come on. But totally worth it!
Mid way through the concert my friend and I decided it was to hot and tiring to be in the very front of the crowd and got out. Thats when i purchased another shirt and a cd while kicking it in the Back.
Thanks for playing such an amazing concert!!!
Your ultimate fan,
Gaelan O’Neill
hi
EWW GROSS! I hope you used zoom and didnt really get that close to it..god knows where its been! YUCK pat!
Holy shit! I’m watching some youtube clips of the new shows and i cant believe you played ohio, baby blue sedan, and all nite diner! i hope sean will post up a bunch of vids from these shows
quick! serenade that insect!
Driving 8 hours to Kansas City from Louisville on March 2nd for our HONEYMOON to see MM. Your photos are great!
Its late, I cant get anyway to email you cause my computers fucked. (Im not a pretentious ass , I swear) , but here it goes, respectfully ,
You dont post certain comments, well shit you should post them all, we together are part of something larger than your censorship. Collectively we enjoy the music of the mouse and the ones who give a shit appreciate you giving the fans a window into the lives of the members through your photography. Pat stay true and if a comments not deemed cool enough by you or what ever person that moderates, post it anyway. Thanks alot, see you in Orlando.
Besides were all pretty strange anyway.
You’ll look in the mirror
And say, “My parents are still alive.”
I was at the Marquee in Tempe last night and Modest Mouse jammed the house with the Cockroach! It rocked! See you in Albuquerque tonight!
Spent the last money in my bank account for this. Thank you Pat, Isaac, Jeremiah, Eric, Tom, Johnny, Loftus, and the meatloaf.
Happy Birthday! And that’s one big knife.
…that cake looks amazing…
He baked that cake inside our souls!
Happy B-day dude!!
tom’s awesome
the cake says “we love you ????, but your still a honey!”
why had ike’s dad dan suddenly given the band so many knives?
ice cream cake…. yum.
“this is a long cactus for someone with nothing to think about”
Cut-LESS?
What a psycho smile in his face. With this nice in his hands, well, i’m afraid of him.
Happy Birthday!!!! What Isaac didnt let you borrow one of his tomohawks to cut your cake with?!?!?
Coolest cake-cutting knife ever.
“We love you Tommy, but you’re still a honkey?”
Oh… oh god… is… is Tom well?
This picture makes me want to stay away from Tom…
Happy Bday Tom.
Happy Birthday!
modest mouse and CAKE!? [laughs] happy birthday tom!
slice slice some dice nice! Happy Happy Birthday Tom!!!
I absolutely love this picture, nice capture. The quote + huge sword/knife makes it even better.
Happy Happy Birthday dear Tom
hey we almost have the same b day! mines tomorrow
happy birthday hope a fun one
happy birthday tom!!!
hey pat, could you post a setlist of what was played at albuquerque??
What a great fuckin show guys.
One of the best concerts I have ever seen.
Much love and keep fuckin jammin!
That was such an amazing show! I’m glad I actually got to stand up in front! Can’t wait to see you again.
Eric looks like a hippy! haha…cute picture.
That night was so fun, getting pelted with hail and all…however we did get to cover and protect these two hot girls me and my friend met that night…..thanks Modest Mouse!
Totally awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ooo i think i see a friend of mine back there, i couldn’t weasel through any closer than about 5 rows back though, would’ve gotten trampled.
but man, that show was so fucking great! getting to hear/see dance hall live has been a dream of mine, and it was nothing short of incredible, well the whole set was perfect actually. thank you! and come back to oregon soon! we love you guys
Digging Jude’s long hair; and Isaac’s hockey hair; and Pat’s new tweets; and other stuff. Semi-colon.
can’t wait till orlando guys. saw you in st. aug. last year great show loud encore, only thing i was missing was my best friend who shares the same love of you guys as I. Modest mouse was a uniting force through our whole generation of my family. If there was a band I have listen to after I die through eternity itd be you. Can’t wait for some new music, really music really needs another modest ouse album. that and another mmj album and i’d be happy.
too cool for school.
ill be there! just like i was last time.
i hope i get to meet you guys
HA!
is it 420 already?
dear pat,
i received my photozine in the mail today, it is awesome!!!!!! the print that came with it is great along with the poster!!! thanks alot and happy shooting.
Gonna be there for sure
AHH!

Dude, Favorite Bassist.

Is that the Orange fender??
I’ll be there! I’m taking the drive down to Atlanta on the 7th as well…I can’t wait!
Could we get some more photos from the Sunshine? It was my first concert (which also happened to be of my favorite band), and I have neither pictures nor a set list in the correct order by which to remember it. I’m a little jaded after this show because nothing will ever top Modest Mouse in my books, and that’s alright.
I’ll be there like last time toooooooooooo
I’ll be there fasho! SC FTW
hey mm fans. last nites show in boulder was awesome!! what was fun is that a cracked out old dude pretended to be a track star to get on stage. isaac realized he was full of shit and made him run in place during the whole time they play the good times are killing me.
Here’s my story……! I was born, a bunch of bad stuff happened, I listened to modest mouse the whole time, then I died…………yep……..that’s pretty much how it goes.
I’ll be seeing you in myrtle beach. This time I won’t act all star struck and scare Eric Judy.
Don’t forget the super glue!
Hey man, more pictures from the Oakland show 2/22/09, preferably of those in the front row.
please?
Just wanted to say I think your pictures are awesome. I was at the show at the Marquee theatre in Tempe, and was hoping you could post some of those photographs if possible. Thanks for all of your great work.
I remember seeing Pat take that picture on stage! What was going on during that song though? The soundsystem kept screwing up, and afterwards Isaac was saying something important, but I couldn’t understand him through the crappy microphones. Anyone know what he said afterwards???
Oh Hell Yeah! Great shot
Great show… but it took them forevvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvver to get on stage.
Soft Cushiony Floor
AmazingAmazingAmazing I came all the way from El Paso to see you guys and I’m so glad I that I did! It was everything I could ask for and more and I cant believe I was so close to the stage. The whole experience was surreal almost. Please come back again, and again, and again.
Hey Modest, thanks for rocking it out huge in Boulder, we saw you open for REM and had to have more. You guys were smokin & great job on the variety of old and new in your setlist. only bummer after buying shirts I was a dollar short on picking up your fruit ate itself EP! would like to pick that one up somewhere, hope to cya guys again soon… cheers!
LOVE THIS SHOT!!
in this picture Ike looks like the one guy from james bond. The french guy that gets shot when bond is trapped in the chair. i forget which movie though.
anyone else feel me??
I was RIGHT THERE! Front Row! Loving life! Great show! Awesome night! Until Atlanta…
i remember when that picture was taken as well. i was pretty close to the front of the stage. it was an incredible show. the mouse did take forever to get on stage but once they did it was worth it. i hoped to hear dramamine and custom concern and i yelled out for custom concern. they played both, and c.c. was the final encore song. it was amazing. SOFT CUSHY FLOORS. SOFT CUSHY FLOORS
Pat,
There is gonna be a sold out show in Oxford, MS at the Lyric on the 6th. It would be awesome to see some pics from that show considering how lucky I was to have even gotten tickets. Glad to see you and the band making your way back to MS.
please come to canada soon! This summer? I think so. VANCOUVER
i will die when i see you guys
LOL noticed u posted this on my b-day
Oooooh, pretty lights…
Its all Stephen Yates.
Oakland and Chico 2/21/09 and 2/22/09 Pleaaaseeeee! <3
holy jesus thats a biggie
I need new Mouse
my withdrawal is becoming paramount to my antisocialism
how bout something from the KC show.
the guitar didn’t feel like joining in?
how bad ass would it have been if you guys played “Dancing Queen” by ABBA? very awsome!
Soft Kushy Floor
Just got back from KC, best set list ever seen of MM in one night. Really good performance.
Yesterday, Kansas City. These shots are awesome. Thanks
One of the best parts of the night:
Isaac showing off his black-light hippie posters mid encore.
You guys were wonderful last night in Kansas City. Thank you for doing what you do! Peace, J
Love the photos Pat, any chance you’d john hancock the print Isaac for me? I’m certain God would craft a sunbeam just for you if you did.
his legs look super long!
Chicooooo tons of Chicooo
…Maybe by Johnny by any chance…
Thanks Pat hope all is well.

Pat! this picture, paired with the feeling of the title, is so beautiful.
I am so thankful that there is someone as talented as you to capture things like this. I don’t mean to gush, but modest mouse’s music is so much to me. myself and three friends drove six and a half hours to the Eugene show and I would have driven twenty if I had to (almost did! before the oregon show was announced I bought 4 tickets to the Oakley, CA one, which I later sold) anyways. I was squished right up against the stage, less than two feet to the left of isaac. I had huge bruises on my hips and ribs that ached for days and it was one of the best nights of my life. Doin’ the cockroach at the very end was a fucking DREAM realized. I could go on and on. I don’t know if you’ll read this Pat, let alone pass it along to any of the band members, but I just wanted to say thanks.
great photo!
aw seriously? i didnt see this until now. please print more! im so bummed now.
I will be posting to imagekind for kcity and okc in a day…as soon as i get a good internet connection
Looking forward to the KC pics…freakin’ awesome show, as usual.
I never thought I would see a day Modest Mouse played SOLD OUT arenas. Congradulations. I’ve been with you since the beginning; even through Ugly Casanova. This is the longest I’ve waited for a new cd!
YOUR DREAMS CAME TRUE, now write about it. Don’t let success be your demise.
“I’m going up, going over to Montana. You got yourself a truckers atlas” and don’t forget about us…
Mr. Graham; you do a great job keeping us updated! Thanks!
Hey, I was wondering if you had any pics from the Tempe show on 2/25. I can’t seem to find any, and would appreciate it if you could post some. Maybe one that inclueds the first couple of rows in the audience right in front if Issac?
Print more!
Hey Pat..Bought your Fanzine at the 03/04/09 AUSTIN, TX gig and it was extremely worth it…really awesome to see intimate settings of the band on the road..the “brockies” and the aerial drumshot was probably my fav(I’m a percussionist) WOULD LOVE TO BUY SOME PRINTS(3/4/9) AND MORE FANZINES of the show.. keep up the extraordinary work..Thanks
You should definitely post some more photos. I wish I could of brought my DSLR in. AMAZING performance for sure though. Totally epic. Even though Johhny Marr wasn’t there.
thats a beautiful picture………………he also did that in hollywood….
I know y’all are coming through the Biggest Little City at some point, give us a date soon please. And I got my zine…over the moon!
He better do that in Atlanta tomorrow ight!
that was the coolest shit ever!!!
At first I thought I was just playing very well with his teeth, but then I started to make out words. I didn’t even know you could use the pickups on a guitar as a mic.
Isaac you’re a genius!!! Hurry back to TEXAS!!!
just saw this, print more please.
I was hoping that Ike would do that this tour! That just adds to how amazing you guys are!
i found my moms old Harmony Bobkat in my attic and i plugged it into my amp and i can whistle into it and it comes out crystal clear out of my amp xD . I dropped it off at the store where i take lessons and they are going to try to fix it! i cant wait to play Tundra on it!!
austin show pleaseee
great pic above!
You should post pics of the tempe show!
any pics of the tempe show in the front row?
your going to electric factory coming up..thats the first show i met you at… i needed a little bit more time…i just miss the black keys there and feel like shit about it…listen to the first three songs on my link… thats why it sucks i missed them.
beautiful
lol that sign in the window is priceless.
Pictures from the Atlanta show last night would be great!
Please and thanks.
Great photozine by the way. Bought it yesterday and love it.
Hope all is well with the tour. : )
Great shot, looks cool with the crowd in the background.
ew, what fools!
Please post pix from Atlanta show 3-7-09
Thanks!!
Just as I made that comment, an e-mail came in from them saying they had been overwhelmed with orders but had set a few aside for international purchases. I had sent my first e-mail Feb. 20, do it can take awhile to get a response.
was the picture of Isaac supposed to come with the photozine?
I bought one at a show and didn’t see one.
or is that with just ordering?
either way, amazing job!
Please post some more pictures of 3-8-09 Ft Lauderdale show!
Thankssssss!
“ALRIGHT!!! FOOTBALL!!!!!”
Just like rex said, Tempe show, right in front of Isaac.
Appreciated!
hey i was at the orlando concert in the front row right in the center. can you put one of those on here so i can buy it PLEASE! thanks
They were in my freezer …
Prints from last night’s HOB show in Orlando would be brilliant. Unfortunately, those bastards won’t let us have cameras.
Love this one, Pat!! You make it look so easy…
Great show last night, thanks for the set list Pat. If you have anymore photos that came out good I’d love to see ‘em.
Jesus one of the best nights I”ve ever had. Pat I tried screaming at you when you were taking those Japanese Motors pictures. Oh well.
pat, you have a nice view!
This Show Was Even Better Than Last Year In Orladno.
More Orlando Pix!!!
Dude! Oxford, MS, at The Lyric, please!!!!!!!
When I first saw this picture, I laughed. I don’t know whats funnier, Tom or the lady sitting in the sand!
Rock out!
I love jello shots.
Great minds think alike!
Hoping you make Korg Kaoss better than ever and like all things new!
I love this, and last night’s show was incredible.
Is there anyway we can see a few more?
more pics on the way..stay tunned
I wish I could take photos like that, really really cool style
Pat, any chance of getting some pics of the March 6th show in Oxford, MS on Imagekind?
great photo. ooohhhhh yea can’t wait for tomorrow night in charm city!! lets get down!!
Good show but needed to play more songs from the old albums but i had an AWSOME time.
I know you’ve already got a couple up, but you’ve gotta have more from the Orlando HOB show. It definitely looked like you snapped some great ones. Please share!!
come to KC, MO yo! please!
i’d love some from the fort lauderdale show at revolution please pat!! thank you!
It was so amazing. come back to myrtle soon pllease
Please post pictures from Raliegh Discoe Rodeo 3/11!!!
Thank you
guuys..
we need u also in europe…
=(
It had to have been 110 degrees in this place. It was effing hot. First concert I drank more water than beer. Awesome show. Pure insanity.
seems like its hot in raleigh
Darn I missed a beach party! No Fair!
It was the hottest it has ever been at the Disco. Hope this lousy venue doesn’t ruin your thoughts on Raleigh and makes you not come back ever again! We LOVE you guys!!!!
You should put up a couple more from the Albuquerque show. That would be great.
Wow, this picture is awesome, Pat. Can’t wait for the Philly show on friday.
pat, i just want to say that you guys have a really cool thing going here. this is the best blog on the net. pictures. the only problem with modest mouse is we can’t get enough of em. this is somethin. keep it goin. keep rockin.
the chick behind us had a thermometer on her watch that said 92 degrees… fresh air indeed..
Show rocked last night…. nice shorts
the crowd at the rodeo was the loudest of the tour and def out did the crappy venue.
hey pat,
more band less crowd? keep up the good work!
epic i must say. Would like see more e. judy. smooth operator.
o.g. CUZ!
Great show!, it was loud, my left ear is still ringing.
The show was great and the heat in the place truly was a bunch of love boiling over for you guys. Can’t wait to see you again. Thanks for taking the time to meet and greet. As promised, next time cookies will come:)
Couldn’t agree more with Cooper, good stuff.
nice crotch shot!
Come to BOSTON, or NH!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!
You all rock. The setlists are beautiful. I wish I could attend to hear you all jamming. I hope all is peaceful and full of excitement. Pat, you are awesome! Thank you so much for allowing us to keep in touch with you!
I agree with possum…just can’t get enough MM…
Amazing show!! Nothing bad to say except the heat issue. I’ve never sweat so hard in my life.
ok
you should come to arkansas no joke.
i have no money to travel lol.
everyone of my friends love you guys and we want u so badly to come here (prferably close to little rock)
if i saw you guys live i think i would never ask for anything again haha
thats one of my goals.
you guys have the best music i have ever heard and i listen to it everyday
your old stuff is the shi* and new of course.
COME TO ARKANSAS!!!!!
<3 casey
Pat, you didn’t tag Jeremiah.
Can you post up a few pics from the oxford show? maybe some of the audience and Modest Mouse? I couldn’t get any pictures. Great show.
Awesome show! it was hot but thanks guys for giving 110% it was amazing!
I was there for the show in Raleigh and I was absolutely blown away – not only by how great the show was but how you guys managed to still put on an amazing performance in that heat!! I was dying, but I can’t imagine what it was like up there on stage under the lights.. That’s the first time I’ve been to that venue, and I think I’m going to have to write in a complaint – I meaaaan, really, turn on some AC people, it’s Modest Mouse!! At any rate, it was worth it..
Indianapolis, Cincinnati, or Chicago please. My $ is good.
Pat I was the younger gentleman who said he loved your pics, in front of the show at Rams Head. PLease be sure to throw some up of that show, and if their is anyway you could tell Issac that the kid he told to fuck off was just trying to say tell us about the bus trip you took to Baltimore and on the way took a nap( Ohio). I think he really really misheard me and was pretty pissed off. Either way the show was awsome and we sort of made up by shows end but I love the guy and I dont want em thinking I’m some sort of prick cause I do plan on seeing him again. Thanks alot and keep up the great work bro
WOW Isaac Brock has got SEXY LEGS ! I mean it
Isaac should do all shows in shorts!
And i agree with possum, i can’t get enough of these photos, thankyou for all of it.
Man, I don’t know how these guys can hold up playing every night this week! Save some strength for NYC!
DUUUUUUUUUDES!! MY bro and I went to the Raleigh show…..had a BLAST…..we were taking “smoke” breaks out on the loading dock and we could feel the heat rolling out the doors…..it was wild….awesome opener with the ocean breathes salty………
The Float On finale was perfect. Hope to catch you all again soon. Do something good for the earth……….
DISCO RODEOOOOOOOOOOO RALEIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! RALEIGH!!!!!!!!! RALEIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WWWOOOOO
i was on my way to alburquerque when i hit a deer and i had to go back to el paso… you guys gotta come back, missed u the first time.
damn, meant saturday.
will u print more….i really want one asap!!!!!
Haha these are pretty cool, any more from the twelth, i was next to that one “3rd planet guy” hahah that was hilarous. GO Issac. All together the show was amazing, seen you guys in June last year at Merriwether, but this time i was only 5 ft away. SO GOOD!
I would have kept on playing….ROCK IT BABY!!!!! Can it hit three times? naaahhhhh.
Baltimore sold out before I had the chance to buy. I’ll see you guys in Philly tonight!!! Can’t wait. I’m in serious need of dance and go crazy.
The gold on the shoe matches perfectly to the gold gear. That is a damn fine bass pedal. Dig the see-through drums..
Midas Touch
I love Pumas!
amazing show in dc last night. thanks guys!!
Ian is cool. I wrote him a fan letter 16 years ago and he actually wrote me back.
That’s an epic picture.
Thanks for sharing, Isaac.

Saludos desde Argentina!!
Pau
rams head pleeaaaase! haha I seen you taking pictures all sneaky like, any of the front 3 or 4 rows? thanks Pat
If I were a lot younger, I’d be screaming my head off at the sight of this picture, instead I call my husband in to revel in the glow. Great shot of two great musicians.
Beautiful blues on a boy balancing high on the ceiling. He looks like a hooka smoking god:)
This might be an odd request, Pat, but if you have any photos from the MB,SC show where a young lady in a teal tank top and blonde hair is visibile, could you post that? I swear you took a picture or two right in my area.
Well, now that I sound like a selfish asshole…that is all.
Thanks for the pictures you’ve already posted, you’re really the best.
I love it, great picture!
Looking forward to seeing any pics you may have from the Philly show 3/14.
yess, philly pics!
dammit brother…i missed you guys down there. come again soon will if you will.
I’m just under his left elbow! Such an awesome show!
OMG I’ve been a mom way too long, all I can think is gets your shoes off the bed!
i just want to say i couldn’t have asked for a better show, that setlist was amazing. i got the beer from japanese motors, front row. awesome!
AMAZING SHOW! Had to hold onto my girl for dear life the entire time, but was worth it.
I could not have asked for a better show…i saw you guys last year in myrtle beach by myself…..then greensboro before that…or was it in winston….either way this show will stand out for a while fo sho….i figured with a 9pm start time WITH openening bands, the show would have been over before 12….but betweeen the coronet and baby blue sedan and all else that ya’ll did…by far the best setlist i have encountered thus far and i thank you! And if you guys need an extra sound guy, feel free to contact me cuz i’m really tired of what im doin!
Tom, Happy belated Birthday to you, Best of Health and MANY MORE comming at you. Mine is February 27 56. Fiqured your a Pisces as cool a dude as you are. Jeff from NY & Philly. The guy that didn’t get the return on the poster. I bought a Wick’s from Brian. Been playing since 11. Later….Jeff

Awesome picture, est one I’ve seen yet, this is desktop worthy even.
luv mm music!!!!!
Ahhh it was so awesome. i crowd surfed right in front!!!
hey pat..i was one of the kids who got to talk to you outside before the show. it was good to finally meet you. i was actually there by myself. i was wondering if you had anymore pictures from the philly show (which kicked ass by the way) to post.
Pleaseeeeeeee post some pics from NYC!?
were you at the terminal 5 show last night,(sunday march 16th) i was sitting on the side of the stage in the handicap section with my lovely girlfriend who is 7 months pregnant. i saw a photographer running around and i figured it was you but i wasnt sure. the show was awesome but it was nothing compared to the mccarren pool show in brooklyn we saw in 06. but every modest mouse show is great in its own way. the baby kicked when they played doing the cockroach so that was amazing. also i wanted to see if you had pics from the show on 3.15
This was a great show. Night on the Sun was awesome.
Pat, I love your pictures. They’re amazing, and this one is great.
Could you please put up some more from 3/14 in Philly if you get the chance?
That would be awesome,
Thanks!
What an amazing tour. Thanks for the good times MM and Pat.
It was an amazing show. We got your photo books there& love it.
Can’t wait to see more of the tour photos~
amazing show opened with dramamine only could hae been better with teeth like gods or convenient parking
great show well worth draging my self there with a sinus infection.
what an amzing show, i managed to get there first and was right infront of isaac the whole time, best night ever.
snakes in the desert snakes in the desert..rocks in mountains..rakes in the forest
Love your photography. Can you add some more from the Baltimore show 3/12 please! I was interested in maybe buying a print from that show, especially ones of Isaac and the crowd right in front of him. thanks

BALTIMORE RAMS HEAD 3/12!! please =/ ? crowd!
You also share a Bday with Isaac’s niece, I’m sure she will be more excited to find that out than you. So Happy Birthday a bit late.
Ooooooo! Whatever are they gonna play? Sattilite Skin? The Whale Song? A We Were Dead classic? Maybe pimp a new CD? Can’t wait!
I think MM should tour all year long!!! The best live shows ever!
Can’t wait to see the performance tonight!!!!
Is that not Bob Dylan in the picture directly above sleeping Isaac Brock?
Hey Pat
I have a special interest in seeing “the first kid who showed up at Terminal 5 ”
Yours truly,
“the first kid who showed up at Terminal 5 ”
Excellent show!
cant wait for Letterman tonight
Flawless, you guys turned the Electric Factory into a vagina and made sweet love to it all night long. Perfect
I was just about to get some birthday money from my uncle after i washed the check in half, but i was holding back because i thought i wouldn’t like it, but when i knocked the sense back into myself and decided to do it, it sold out. My favorite band, an hour away, performing songs that made my life so much better(If you haven’t noticed, i’m an obsessed fan, i have seven albums and two EP’s of theirs!) Man, am i mad at myself. Please come back to Philly first thing on your next tour. I’ll rob a bank if i have to, i’ll see MODEST MOUSE!
sooooon promise.
Satellite Skin, I believe and no Dylan was right handed.
Who cares what the play! Everything is amazing.
i want to listen to that ipod.
Watching Letterman right now, he just held up the “Satellite Skin” single. I love the artwork!
And I’m pretty sure the line “happy fucking congratulations” will be changed for the TV performance.
You guys did fantastic!
Haha, i knew it. tricky, tricky. Great job at Terminal 5 and Letterman guys, can’t wait for the new songs!
happy “freaking” congratulations. lovely performance as usual.
It was awesome and cant wait until August when the new EP gets released!!!! Thanks again Pat for all your great pic’s.
fantastic performance guys, can’t wait to buy the new EP
“so happy freaking congratulations”
we were wondering how that would work. Twas a wonderful performance. Also you guys were great in Washington, DC at the 9:30 club- Thank you so much to whoever enabled me to get my hat signed after the show-I appreciate it more than I can say!
“f*** you in the face itunes” remember that quote anybody?
No, no, Dave said “please welcoming back.” Haha.
Satellite Skin single? Where’s the EP?!
That was really great, I love how the it sounds like the older stuff. It’s all so beautiful, I almost started crying. haha.
Haha! Does Isaac listen to his iPod and write down the lyrics before each show so he doesn’t forget them? I like that.
Great pics Pat.
Just saw this on the west coast.
Satellite Skin, brilliant.
Wish they had time for another song!!
Uh, you need to tour Australia again. This is just another reason why.
no paul shaffer you can not join the band….
great way to top off the tour, i’m so proud!
The song is beautiful. I will tell you that I have learned a lesson, though. Next time I will definitely stay up. Tivo has a horrible way of cutting everything off before it’s finished. Can’t wait to get the ep. Great work guys.
I’m sleepy at work today from staying up to watch Letterman. Great song though. I’ll have to get that vinyl to add to my others.
Great performance! I “freaking” love that song, can’t wait for the Vinyls!!! take care boys and come back on stage soon (after a deserved break)! And thank you Pat for posting everything <3
they opened with dramamine
mm ive seen yall three times and that was one of the best shows ive ever seen in my life
yall were amazing and all of yalls effort and endurance was very much appreciated
i wanted to stick around to say hello but i was drained after the show cant wait for the next tour!!!
and this site kicks ass by the way!!!!
So cool! New cd is supposedly also coming out in august…? Issac looks like he wants to say somehting to dave but kind of just comes off a little awkward. issac has tossed me the middle finger, told me he was going to beat my ass, told me to fuck off( not all at the same time), he’s gaven me a wink, told me thanks and also gaven me a thumbs up!…again? Love the guy but man sometimes I don’t know what to think of him other than, he’s a musical genius with alot boiling up there. He’s still my #1 person I’d love to just sit down and drink a beer with, and as much as I”D love to meet the whole band it just seems like ERic is the coolest guy period and would be just real chill to hang with
just looking at that ipod makes me wonder how many glorious songs there are on it. i wish i could borrow it for a week.
Selected tracks are being released! Get the free download of The Leaves and the Trees on Tom’s website at:
http://thelastsaturdayoftheyear.com/wordpress/ Check it out!
Ricky, were you at the show in Oxford at the Lyric on March, 6th?
Ricky. wtf? Funny.
i thought it was really awesome. i’ve heard this song before, but i could never really make out the lyrics. it’s a really good song.
Great performance! Is it just me, or is Letterman starting to sound like a crazy old man?
Great performance!
Cheers to pat for all updates he must be one busy guy with all pics,tours and updates and also running his gallery.hats of to the bloke!
Just wondering if us Brits are gunn be able to get hold of the ep?
Pat were do u find the time bro!
Breathtaking.
Great song and I cant wait for the vynls! Truely my favorite band and an inpiration to me and my band. I hope to catch you guys the next time you come to washington or baltimore! You guys rock. Just wondering, wheres johnny?
that was an AWESOME time!!! when are ya going to post more pics? like savannah, i know im in there somewhere!!!! the pics are great, keep ‘em comin!
Thank you so much, this song has a beautiful soul!
I was so excited when they came on last night. I’ve still got it recorded on my Tivo…
It was excellent.
Haha. I couldn’t resist laughing when Letterman stood next to Isaac…
Johnnys recording with the cribs I think
This guy rocks…I remember back in the day, Eric, when we struggled to get into concerts!
hey pat, why no pics of the hollywood show??????
Well then who is the one in the picture directly above I. Brock’s head?
HAHAHA! gotta watch that one on the right..never know what he might be up to!
I like Joe’s socks.
I laughed my self to sleep from Letterman’s uncomfortable gesture standing on stage with Isaac……. Isaac looked like he saw a ghost or a live dinosaur….and pour old Letterman looked like he was standing with fishing wire above him by a puppeteer…. Great show, terrific tour and the best band in the fucking world!
Every day turning out a little bit more like Brozowsky?
havn’t listened to mouse all week wonder how long i can keep off it. Its like im addicted, or something.
Good stoppage Davey. You’ve got a glimmer of glory in your eyes.
need a moment? chew it over with a twix!!
AA! I didnt think Sad Sappy Sucker and The Fruit would go out of print so soon!!! i cant find it anywhere!! only for 50$+!!!
this is wonderful pat, i hope you didn’t mind me using this in the link shown below:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/j3zz/3374533572
you can contact me if you want this deleted.
Brian..under your right hand, isn’t that where Joaquin stuck his gum when he was but wasn’t there?! sell that on ebay
Where’s Johnny/Who’s the guitar dude with the hair?!
Great performance. Keep us updated on the EP and whatnot!
tipis rock….cities suck..sept for venice beach, ca.
Okay, 7 members?!
Who’s the guitar dude with the hair/Where’s our beloved Johnny?
Pat I was at Ram’s Head, 9:30 Club, and Electric Factory and was wondering if there were any sick pictures of the kid in the blue bandana. Preferably with Isaac or someone in the foreground? 9:30 would be sweet because I had a friend there with me!
Saw CAKE there a few years ago- great performance and nice venue. I’m sure MM rocked the house too
Haha awesome first pic- many more to come I hope, right Pat? I was in the front row there (wearing my devoted stormy kromer hat), and it was really neat to see you right in front of me snapping away. Anyways, looking forward to more pics from this show!
CAn you put up more pictures of the little drummer boys. lol. I’m no photographer, but are all of these recent photos supposed to be kind of “blurred” like that?
Can we pleeeease get some Philly-Electric Factory (3/14) photos put up?
wow, love this, great shot pat. hope you got some equally awesome ones from philly!
Isaac’s head has been transformed into a celestial beam of light
Will any other photos from this show (Terminal 5, 3/15) be posted?
Um. AWESOME!
crowd pics??
March 07, 2009! Atlanta Show pleeeeeease.
Hey Kathy – How did you manage to get the water bottles?!? I would have done ANYTHING to get water to the front row at the Boulder show! Please tell your secret
This is a great shot. The juxtaposition of a bright, brilliant, celestial beam of light with a lowly ol’ cigarette lying beside his feet.
That is incredibly awesome~
i was hoping for more Terminal 5, i was in the front row it was amazing
Did anyone notice how awkward it was when Mr. Letterman got to the stage post-song.. He didn’t shake anyone’s hands on camera, which usually happens. Letterman’s a tall mutha…
That’s just bad ass…
OH MY GODZ! It Sounds Beautiful!
Thats so coo, Isaac’s head is a big light, haha.
I will post more from T5…dont worry. I have 21 shows to go through…cheers Pat
pat post some froim rams head as well please and thank u

HI modest mouse is my favorite band but i dont know much about you guys. are you a member of the band? please respond im very curious
I recd email for new song – Hot House – great song & video!!!!!! Keep up the great work!
Yeah, his socks are great but once again: who is in the photo above Isaac’s head?
Tried looking for the band at the orlando show, but went around back mistakenly and missed out, in the haze I looked through a small hole in the fence and saw the crew loading out, but then a face I recognized oozed out of backdoors. LOFTUS….I shouted something stupid to the man and he shot me a dirty look, the show was killer and a (eat shit and die)look from the man himself was almost as good as meeting the band.. Pat you rule.
where are all these photos, cant get them on my picture screen, maybe it the computer, but Im curios, and throw up Imagekind Orlando photos, still lacking.
hell yeah gettin into it! Trash can looks new
he’s got skills
you should come to Nh. PSU would go nuts. think cloud of heady smoke
yeah! I’ve always wondered as well!
How do I get one now?
I’m trying to get one for my boyfriend who went to highschool with Jermey.. (The ultimate birthday gift.) Is there any where I can still buy one for him?
Thanks,
Heather
sign up for the mailing list below..more details later in the week. Thanks! Pat
Jerome Green?? haha
MM is amazing. I totally missed them in Sioux Falls, SD…
ISAAC’s middle name starts with a “K”!
YO JEROME xD
lol thats funny
isaac k. brock?

What does the “K.” stand for, I wonder?
Issac Kristopher Brock???
Tom if you ever drive through Texas stop on by ….hahaha
(By the way love your video Hot House)
Isn’t this from the Disco Rodeo in Raleigh?
I googled what the K meant and couldn’t find anything!
Ah I would really like to know.

oh sorry i meant Issac Kristofer Brock
damn, tom can do it all. renaissance man

Austin sold out too fast for me! Hope y’all make it to the DFW…eventually
Jiminey junkfood batman! That squirrel is a carnivore!
Does the consumption of animal bones constitute being a carnivore or does meat need to be present?
HI Pat!! Love your work!! Only wish I could do what you do. I was very interested in receiving the photozine. Will you be printing anymore??
Sometimes you gotta get out of that seat when the spirit moves ya.. Damn, that’s awesome.
If only Steve Irwin were alive to see this!
love your work. any way to get a copy of the modest mouse book still?
Love the video on the official site promoting the show and bands.
nice
http://jalopnik.com/5141430/how-to-hack-an-electronic-road-sign
seems to be way back.
the sign hacking link is great!
Is it going to start a chain reaction?
i think this is from last tour in L.A. i saw pat walk across the line waiting and talking to a few people, then walking back in. he probably took the picture when he walked back in.
I was in Costa Rica when you came to Chico!!!
You don’t know how sad I was.
Come back pah-lease : ]
best show of my life :]
i miss the tour

Aah, very exciting. Too bad I’m nowhere near LA.

http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt151/elizabethmuse/CopyofIMG009-1.jpg
im sure it could be edited to make the color and lighting better
What day are they playing?
long live Les Paul style
can’t wait for you guys to come back to charm city
THANK YOU for mentioning the theremin!
makes complete sense now why issac’s guitars were always being tuned on this past tour
buenos nochitas…!?mas hyseria?! no bueno
It’s in my mind too
It’s awesome to see the crowd from the drummer’s stand point… To realize that the entire crowd is beboppin’ to the sounds coming from this kit. Pat, thanks for taking the time to get these great shots.
Great question…what day are they playing at Outside Lands Festival?
Dear Mr. Pat,
I love everything that you’re doing to keep us posted. From the photoblog to the twitter page. Thank you very much !! I have one small request. Is there anyway you can post up more pictures if Joe ? He’s soooo dreamy hahahahah.
Thank you so much.
Dede.
misuse of “there” busted. fine is 1 photozine.
Is there anyway you can ask Tom where he got those bracelets ? They’re wonderful.
ahhh. yes i can take pictures but cant spell or draw. stash of extra photozines to be released soon. Stay Tuned.
-Pat
aaww.. Fluff-aluff-akiss! or prehaps…. Isaac McFluffskin?
McWhiskerkins sounds like a name for an alcoholic beverage
When life gives you bowls, bang them.
Joe is so handsome. Thank you Pat !!!
xoxo – Dede.
go joe!! congrates on playing with the shins
first, where is j. marr?? i hate the cribs you know, they took him!!!
second, 7 is a lucky number but i’m not used to, i guess is a matter of time.
third, i want that vinyl, god i love you guys.
fourth, ike moves like hi’s a robot, so hot!!!
fifth, i’m crying because of the song, it’s beautiful!
sixth, come to tijuana!! please. or at least to san diego, chula vista
love guys, you’re the best, from yesterday to the end of the time!
Ummmmmm. Am I the only one who checks back everyday for more tour dates, but only to be disappointed? Come back to Oregon. Never can get enough. Nice picture Joe. Want to see more pics from McDonald Theatre!
awsome! i cant wait! im going to save up some money
Hey guys, on the vinyl special release, can you indicate where the closest retailer to Shreveport, LA is that will carry the release?
Thanks guys – I’m a huge fan amd avid vinly collector. Great show in Oxford by the way. The atmosphere was charged to say the least.
Stephen Krefft
first! I cannot wait! this will be my chance to redeem myself after not getting a photozine ><.
I don’t live near any decent record stores. Any chance this will be available online??
awesomeness
Radical
Excitement!
must have this!!!
its been stuck in my head since i heard in hollywood and on letterman!!!
cant wait til you come back this way!
ahhhhhhhh!!!!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG.
cool
I’m excited!!
How can international buyers get the vinyl?
love this photo, that venue looks awesome
Hi there guys!
))
As my fellow Polish fan mentioned somewhere above, it would be really cool if you finnally visited Poland, and I guess open’er would be the best idea
There are really many desirous fans waiting here for you!
Cheers!
How are you gonna spread 4000 copies across the entire nation? Really? I can name 100 individuals in my city alone that will go out and try to find this. And I’m sure there are more than 40 cities in which Modest Mouse has fans.
Homer’s is taking pre-orders at $9.99 plus shipping. Here’s a direct link to the vinyl.
http://www.buymusichere.net/rel/v2_viewupc.php?storenr=57&upc=88697499087
I can’t wait! It’s been too long since I had new Modest Mouse for my ears, they’re needing it.
Modest Mouse come to Poland !
Please
Joe is Magic Magician
SS music video May 15th?! Oh I can’t wait!
Just pre-ordered and listened to Satellite Skin for the first time since you guys played in Atlanta, thank you so much for making such amazing music =]
Isaac McFluffskin sounds like a porn star name.
beetle juice! beetle juice! beetle juice!
SS sounds great!!
i cant wait to hear the studio versions of Guilty Cocker Spaniels and The Whale Song!
yeah i agree with rusty, that is one unique theater.
thanks for all the info pat. I can’t wait to listen! don’t worry Dani, i just pre-ordered you a copy!!
new modest mouse music always moves me.
we were dead was released right as i was leaving iraq and i just lay in a cot with it on repeat for days in kuwait
just got that same feeling from satellite skin
I want to be there! It looks amazing!!
BTW nice picture… and photography throughout the site. I dig.
ordered.
i really want the artwork on a t-shirt
Just bought it, so excited im in love with ya’lls music! come back to the DFW area in Texas, i can guarantee we will treat you better than last time
holy shit fucking shit fucking shit…like that King Rat song…just heard it for the first time…and thats the shit..im talking about.
don’t get too full of yourselves, guys.
Lucky Guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watched the new Satellite Skin video and the video alone is very imaginative and well done and the song is potentially dangerous for my health. Scratch my itch I need more. Modest Mouse can do no wrong.They are a group of very talented musicians. Already pre-ordered my vinyl.Wish them all the success and then some.Can’t wait to see them on the next go round.
good show, good show!
come on 5/26/09. get here.
looks like a video game scene! and i want it
So YOU have one?! If so, how bout you do us all a big favor and show us atleast the back of it?
when you say Kevin Willis (TOOL), do ya mean the guy who makes the TOOL music videos? there seems to be an element of TOOL-ishness to the Satellite Skin Video, still pretty awsome
Yes thats him…check out his ART
One of my favs..
-Pat
any room for yet another BROCKIE???
i have been waiting sooooo long for a new modest mouse song…and its pretty rad!! i just preordered…why
would you even try and wait? 4000 copies only…. a preorder was definitely in need!!
Ahhh, thats too cool
haha! tom plays a mean chair
i love drawing TOOL stuff, or at least attempting after the prolonged exposure and migrane, so complex and beautiful
YAY! Lofus WEEK!
What is ERic playing? A clarinet/flute??
ha ha ha ha…yes….i love it.
the bipedal birdhouse is such a nonconformist.
I think the alien represents something that control people, like a company controls an artist.
The eggs are like ideas, and from the ideas came sins (ravens).
is this the one that heath leadger did???
i know i read that somewhere……
makes me wanna put legs on my birdhouse
…the birdhouses didn’t freak me out until I saw their eyes.
Brilliant…can’t wait until the vinyl comes out and/or the EP.
And I’m still waiting for more tour dates…
This video was done by Kevin Willis.
-Pat
great song guys. can’t wait to see you again!!
NO that was not the one from heath ledger. It’s KIng Rat and it’s also from Terry Gilliam I think. I still can’t believe that Heath Ledger and Modest Mouse, two of my favourite artists in the world made a video together. It’s such a shame that he died.
I actually don’t know what to think about this. The video’s quite cool but I must say I don’t like the song. It sounds lame in my ears. But I’ve heard GUILTY COCKER SPANIELS and WHALE SONG on youtube and my god!!!!! they’re brilliant. Well I can’t like anything a band produces right. That would be like eating everything or having no opinion.
sorry for bad english
liz, king rat is the Heath Leadger video.
Getting very excited as each day brings the impending release of “No One’s First” a day closer…
Can. Not. Wait.
loved the video, thanks kevin willis!!
http://www.kevinwillis.biz/gallery/14/cunt.jpg
Hey Pat, Who drew/painted the fly/moth on the cover of the single?
Awesome music video. Can’t wait for the EP!
i dont really understand this video at all….
Is this from The Shins set?
Did the cover’s inspiration come from Issac’s tattoo he has on his arm?? Just wondering. Cool cover though! Love the song.
Aw man its like sixth grade all over again!
And I thought Man Man had enough people banging on shit!
Who drew the artwork for this 7″?
I was there. And almost got a shot of Pat getting his shots but he didn’t ever leave the shadows. Psh
D-d-double comment!
The lady and I were waiting outside and could hear Blame It On The Tetons being sound checked. Pump the jams
Guilty Cocker Spaniels is amazing! It should be the single, with Satellite Skin as the B-side!
haha he blends in with them also!
Guilty Cocker Spaniels is awsome!
this is a good one
No Isaac don’t do it!!!
Awww man, Tabasco? Thats pretty rough. Habinaro is where its at! Ha!
i want isaac on my team when i have to beat someones ass!
just ordered SATELLITE SKIN!!!
finally!
Isaac should have used the Green TABASCO® Jalapeño Pepper Sauce – wouldn’t have irritated his eye as much
haha.. awesome!
$7 for a 7 inch plus $4.50 shipping? c’mon guys…
A dollar per inch? plus shipping? no thanks, Sony!
That was awesome! It made me want to do a jig around a bonfire~
Any chance that the 7′ will be sold in the U.K?
Or is it an america only thing.
he’s got skillz
I love Rob Zombie!
the store has been down for months, does anyone know when it will be back up??
are those silver painted toenails??
no shirt, no shoes, no problem
oh ok thanks pat and Satellite Skin(mike)
pat do you know when we get to see the king rat vid??
That drawing was done by Joshua Marc Levy. I checked out his site http://www.joshuamarclevy.com and hes got a lot of cool ink work on there in the fine art section
Hahahaha, Oh Isaac!
think he had too much free time on his hands …
trying to find a site to purchase the book online. is it still available?
aaaaaaaaaaaaaajajajajajajajajajajaja los sacaron al averno jajaja.
loftus up!!
ike broke, che guevara, tabasco… nice mix!!!
you drive me crazy guys!!
brock, my bad
PRICELESS! hahaha gotta love how he is so serious at points..big eyed Ike
Wow he really IS the bravest man
Love the song Guilty Cocker Spaniels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOOL! man man will never have enough people banging on shit
He can do it all!!!! What a ham he is
Sounds like something from Riverdance!
Shadows in pink, a time and place,
waves crashing against a rock
opera in a hot venue
couldn’t chew more than a bite
with cookies flying.
Seriously though, great photo
I bet the water felt as good as it looks.
yes! ordered
!
Would love to win one of those EP’s not numbered that would be awesome!!!!!!!
Man….I just wanna chill with Isaac for like an hour or two. Hell, it’d be awesome just to shake his hand…
One day.
I love how everyone else in the vid just seems used to this sort of thing ^^
here’s a photo of my album! http://www.flickr.com/photos/a_philosophotographer/3570547745/
Ike man yall are so awesome!!!! You gotta come down to Alabama!! I wanna see you guys live so bad!!!
This is backstage at Voxhall in Aarhus, Denmark. What a night, come back soon.
I love that flying spider thing!!!! so cool
Pat when is the next photo mag coming out and when can we order?

Its BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
i got # 3412
when can we expect another tour???
what the hell has he done to his eye!!???
So MM will be at two places on the same weekend in San Diego and in San Francisco?
I got three. =]
soon…in the next couple weeks. i will keep everyone posted.
-pat
yes they are teleporting between sets..no really..the weekend has 3 days, 2 for a shows and one to drive perhaps?
when do tickets go on sale, and How are you pat?
dude like, u guys should definetly come Vermont on the next tour,
Are they playing both days of the Street Scene Fest?
no just one…
Awesome guys, I went to the show in Oxford on March 6th, and live in Tupelo, I actually work right down the road from Main Street Vintage. It is awesome to see great artists, especially you guys, enjoy your visit while you are here. Please come back soon.
By the way, the Satellite Skin vinyl is great.
do you work at that hardware store that sold Elvis’s mom bought his first guitar at?
tom looks like a badass here
This is by far the MOST BEAUTIFUL bass ever.
Tom looks so comfortable holding that guitar. Hope his show went well last Friday!!! Love his work.
Hunka Hunka burnin’ love
Our copies that me & my friends ordered weren’t numbered (or actually one of them was), but anyways 4 didn’t have any kind of number. How’s this possible? It seems all genuine but it’s missing the number. Maybe few went through without getting a number?
Pat,
No, I work at BancorpSouth Bank across the street, the tall one with all the windows. Sorry it took so long to reply.
So this won’t be out to pick up on Vinyl Saturday?!
lol wow highest bid for a sign lmfao
Which day? And do you know if they are going to offer single day tickets for sale? Currently, they are only offering 2 day passes for sale.
im loving all of what you guys have done, and what you are continuing to do. thank you
so, the link loads, but it is just a blank page. Did I miss the sale? or is the link down? I need this vinyl.
I am so ready to hear Autumn Beds. I know it will be an amazing song.
i checked it. I got it to work..try another browser
The order a copy link takes you to skyroo which people have complained how their record(Satellite Skin) was shipped.One guy even said his copy could not be played it was so “warped”. http://tinyurl.com/ks98hg
Ordered my Satellite Skin from Insound and everything was perfect.Already pre-ordered the Autumn Beds a couple of weeks ago and am sure that will be perfect too.Although just checked Insound and cannot find it.So,check both out.You never know what you might get.
cant wait for whale song. i hope it’s as good as it is live
I agree jason, i live there. it blows, not much modest mouse except at the cains and norman…
but am soon moving to cali. whew.. then its more MM!!!
man all of these festivals are cool but they aren’t anywhere near my area =(…the southeast is in dire need of more major music festivals! but i guess i have no reason to complain since i just saw them in march
This single by single thing was a tremendously great idea. Leaving the fans a two-song single to look forward to like every two months! Of course, it really waters down the excitement for the EP release, but still, it’s cool to hear about new Modest Mouse material all of a sudden on their website.
Mine came bent. Ran out of stock.
Motherflucker.
Love your work, Pat! I already pre-ordered this yesterday. I’ve got a question about your first Zine. There’s a faraway shot of four guys in a wide open field behind a big outdoor stage, which can be seen in the background. I was just curious: was that taken at Westfair Amphiteater in Council Bluffs in April of last year? It looks like it, but I can’t be sure. Thanks for your help!
Anyway, that show was epic. With the rain, hail, tornadoes, etc. One of the best shows I’ve been to.
I can’t wait to get my hands on this one. The last one was great!
Cool, again european fans excluded… No tour for years and now i´m not even able to order the Zine.
Everyone outside the USA please email info@raenoptics.com they will take your zine orders…
cheers, Pat
We won’t be sleepin’ in our Autumn beds!
http://www.spinner.com/2009/06/16/modest-mouse-autumn-beds-song-premiere/
ARE YOU COMING TO SOUTH FLORIDA ANYTIME SOON?
I’ve been looking for tickets everywhere…
That picture is from the Orlando show at the Hard Rock Live.
Total B.A.
What a great day this was.
Please come back to shit hole Regina.
What about the east coast??? I’m heartbroken…
hey you guys should stop by orlando!! excited to hear you all are touring again- FO SHO!!
I just heard The Whale Song…and thank you…now I have to steam-clean my brainmatter from the carpet.
This is awesome. I have the first Photozine, and really want this, but I’m not quite sure if I can get it.
On a completely different note, I just want to say that I just heard the Whale Song this morning. Brilliant. It met a lot of fans expectations, I’m sure. Thanks for all your greatness and I can’t wait much longer for the EP to come out in August.
Does anyone know if the 7″ Satellite Skin is still available anywhere to purchase?
thats a really short tour…
but i love the b side for autumn beds. best song ever written.
ummmmmm hellooooooooooooooo………………..what about all of us in Oregon. Still waiting to hear “all night diner” live. Any chance you guys are gonna drop on by the Edgefield this summer?
Come to Guadalajara Mexico!!!
Yeah!!
LOL! Never seen this
I love this… of course I do
Pat could you please post this photo back to the photoblog?
http://www.flickr.com/photos/danafenia/1541632594/
Please!!!
Toronto, here I come!, or will come that is.
thats…macawesome!
and i just realized that arizona was totally skipped from all the west coast shows.
i’m with alex. heartbroken
Awesome pic Pat
Look’s like Jim is thinking, “wait, play that again..”
Also, not sure if you can comment on this but can you offer any confirmation about the supposed Hawaii gig September 9th? I’m planning a vacation around that time and would love to see the Mouse while there..
Just bought my tickets to the Toronto show. Amazing that Fairchild is playing guitar for the tour. Anyone know who will be opening for their shows?
…His eye was like this on the Photozine…Does he have a talent of voluntarily popping the blood vessels in his eyes and making them totally red? Hmm…
No Reno show? Say what?
Haha, what? Great picture. I love the hat and the orange.
Dear Isaac, Eric, Jeremiah, Tom, Jim, Joe (if he’s coming on tour)
See you guys in Halifax. Let’s have some beers and talk about all things nautical. Bring that hat.
Cheers!
I love Modest Mouse Tremendously. .. I’m not gay but. .. I’d Go down on Every member. ..
yeah come to reno! also, that is the smallest couch i have ever seen.
learn those songs jim!!
Whats up guys,
you’re doing a tour that starts off in halifax Aug.17th… AMAZING!!!
Bad news is that the show was sold out less than a day… I was hoping to convince you that your fan base in the east coast is larger than you think, and perhaps having another show on the 16th would help satisfy the hunger out here..
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Come play in BRAZIL, guys!
We do need Modest Mouse concert here really bad!
:]
creepin out of my neck came a fresh head with a giant smile on it
.jeremiah was a blue frog.
Pat, Do you have any photos of the Disco Rodeo show in Raleigh when Issac jumped into the crowd to break up that fight?
hopelessly hopeless I hope so, for you.
im thinkin about taking a friend to colorado for a show
lets see what happens
I was at this show and it was awesome! I just hope they come back to the garden the future. Issac is so sick!
Good lord these songs are amazing!
Thanks for the updates guys.
didnt Ike get hit by a bottle or something?
Hopefully that is just spilled Kool-Aid.
I love this picture. Definitely gives you an idea of the dedication Joe puts into Modest Mouse.
From your point of view pat was the Disco Rodeo show the best of the spring tour?
it was one of them…def the hottest…
This is a beautiful photograph, Pat.
did someone die?
my dad was the same jean outfit
hey dont waste all that blood….my fellow vampires.
nice!!!
this photo is awesome!!!
Wow, love this one.
Fuck That’s Cool.
I was mere miles away from this, but insufficient funds conquered me once more.
i need a MM gig!!!!!!!!!
denver is to far away!!!
pat do you need an intern??
it must be hell at some times to have to go through all those amazing photos you take!
I remember watching Pat taking pics while watching the show from the balcony.
I’m surprised any of these are still left! Whoever hasn’t ordered yet had better hurry.
keep the philly photos comin’ pat!
i want this really bad. how much is it?
Whats “Tofurky”?
Modest Mouse, i’m sorry. I have a confession. I didn’t buy Satellite Skin or Autumn Beds on vinyl. I believe i am your number #1 fan, because there is not one song of yours i do not love hearing. You guys have been making my life happy ever since i heard about you. But i feel horrible because when Satellite Skin came out, i didn’t buy it. I did not have enough money, and the money that i did have was going towards the EP. WHen i went to buy it, there were minimal copies left, and they were all at ginormous prices. I even went to this run-down store that has a tiny record collection, and they were closed. I figured it wouldn’t be right to not get Satellite Skin but have Autumn Beds, so i left out Autumn Beds too. I detest myself for not owning your new material, and i wish to redeem myself by buying your EP, nailing it to my wall, and making a littlle shrine for it, and holding 12 hour services to worship it. Again, i’m whole-heartedly sorry for not living up to my Modest Mouse fan potential. I’m not worthy. But on the other hand, i do own them on iTunes. But they’re just files.
I saw both the Fillmore Miami Beach and the more recent Revolution concert in Ft. Lauderdale. Both fucking phenominal! Please come back more often! We love us some Modest Mouse in MIA.
mmm nothing like drums and tofurkey
go to RAEN its 10 dollars. they have a limited amount.
Thanks!
I love the capture of motion. I am so excited to see you guys in OH and IL!
Consider the East coast, please? We love your music and all there is to do now is go to these ridiculous music festivals where tickets are like 1000 dollars and all I want is to see a good show and dance around without bumping into a guy overloading on ecstasy.
tofu turkey? Very green.
awww i was so excited to see you guys go on tour on my birthday but then i saw there no east coast tours…bummer:( love the new songs tho
is thier any way to order it when your nowhere close to one of raen’s retailers, ontario…..
Order it direct from RAEN they will ship to Canada
Come to Louisville!
that is freaky
looks like DIA
Come back to Texas! (no pun intended) Another Austin show would be great as a matter of fact a couple shows would be amazing it would give more people a chance at a ticket (i missed one by a few minutes at least) So please please please come to Texas. btw there is an expo center in my town that would make a great central Texas location. It’s in Belton, Texas
Pat, I just received this in the mail yesterday. I dropped what I was doing and spent the next half hour admiring the beauty of this second installment in a hopefully long library of beautifully compiled photography and snippets of tour experiences with you and the band. Nowhere else could a fan find a more intimate insight into what actually goes on when the band is not on stage. Thank you for all your beautiful work.
Got this yesterday. Took 2 DAYS! Forgot Raen is in Encinitas. lol.
I love it! Thanks, Pat.
Great zine! Loved it, in fact you even ‘retweeted’ me on the pics I posted of the zine. The quality was very nice.. maybe could have had a better spine since these are limited, maybe some stitching next time? (Just speaking by experience since I work for a press lab.) The imagery was very emotional and loved the captions for each segment. I really enjoyed the quote from Johnny, about seeing the world through a window. I would like to tell you Pat that the images you depict of this band truly mean alot to the eyes that view them. Your images give me chills.. (in a good way) Wish I had purchased the first zine too. Cheers!
Apparently, I can be found somewhere in this zine… How I wish I had the money to spend!
What is the photo on the back cover of?
loved the photos…just wish there was a little more ‘zine. you know, the stories behind the photos. but overall, great stuff. thanks pat :]
Luke, I missed the Satellite Skin release, too, but I’m still ordering this one. Even though I can always download these songs, I love vinyl and want to work on my collection… and what’s a better vinyl than a limited edition (4000 copies!!) never-before-released 7″ by, um, Modest Mouse.
i loooove the new ep’s,but yall need to come to TX please !!
PLEASE come down the East Coast. Please. Seriously. I have been dying to see you guys for a very long time
LOL Looks like police brutality evidence
must have been a crazy birthday, haha
Not again!
i don’t know if issac really got arrested or if this is a joke….hopefully he got arrested b/c that would be cooler
Oh Nooozozzzz
ill save you!!!
hail issac
So, along with the recent singles this is another thing I can’t order from the UK…
Great band…opening songs were awesome given the opening bands were sub-par. Lead singer was hammered at the show which stood out in the overall sound. It ruined the show and we left early. Dude, been there, done that, no sweat…but learn from your mistakes. Blow the fans minds with your unique talent…don’t be side -racked by greed and pride.
Amish Isaac.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind…
someone tell me if Modest Mouse will tour in europe this year please (except ATP)!! Pat?
LOL …. thought I saw him on that episode of COPS last weekend
I am glad for beards, and the joy they bring.
Lookin a little Ahab-y I like it
I appreciate all of you. Will there be an opening band for Modest Mouse this tour? I love Mimicking Birds, if they traveled with, gratitude is all I can feel
if mm tours in germany, i am coming dani!!!
I deeply enjoy this.
what a great random way to make a setlist
i love the lighting. nice work!!
haha, yaaay rusty
what a setlist….
nice setup.
I have not the slightest idea who the heck this is, but that’s a pretty sick beard.
Awesome!
I just got the new zine in the mail Isaac looks pretty gnarly with his hat and hatchet putting out fires.
Dear Modest Mouse: Replace the Beastie Boys for Osheaga in 2 weeks, pretty please.
hey so it july 22 2009 and i’ve been to my third modest mouse concert now. they were awesome. still love you guys!
Thats a Damn Fine Head Covering on Isaac
prob should look closer since this is a sign
Does the rule of thirds apply in photography?
That Hat Is Magic…
the new c d is awsome and issac if u read this i will let u hav sex with my girl friend 2 meet u shes hot
dont think jeremiah remembers me….but on one occasion…electric factory in philly…i stumbled cross the man…sitting the back…middle….with a bowl…and just doing some sort of circular chime motion.
mr krinkle is playing as i’m writing this….primus
My fucking god. This is my favorite band. I can’t stand it. This stuff is too good. It hurts so good.
EVERY SINGLE ROTHBURY PICTURE!
Brazil guys, please!
oh wow a cosmic eye…50million light years away
and my eyes are red
I see… a man with a large nose and a handlebar moustache…
this photo is fucking amazing…
question for eric: how the fuck did you come up with the bass line to truckers’ atlas? that shit blows me away every time.
good signs…
and good choice of cigarettes…and color
my preference exactly
Please come to the east coast! NYC to be exact…I love you guys and have been craving to see you again! You guys def put on one of the best shows I’ve ever been to!!!!
The rest of the gang up next?

“Grrr baby, very Grrr.”
Isaac! x]]
<33

This is amazing like the one you took of him back in March AWESOME!!!!!!
Safe Men ;D
Isaacs thinking “idont know what the hell theyr doing but im wearing a fucking sweet hat”
where’s the beer?
modest mouse is so amazing… lonesome crowded west is still my fav album… and it can make me cry if i let it (but it never has). come to texas… :/ i miss your sound so bad. i need yall more than ever.
throat coat!
cant wait to see you in anaheim!!!! me and mo will be there
and if theres drunken assholes like last time i will defend your honor again
shall i sport my “Never Ending Math Equation” tee? i think so
Man this was the best MM show I’ve ever been to. Do you have anymore from this show Pat?
LOVE to the MODEST MOUSE………….have a safe trip to Chicago!!!!!! See you there!!!!! The new EP rocks my socks….cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!
man that movie wasn’t able to keep my attention very long…i ended not watching it. but I believe cracking safes is pelosos…secret identity in one of your old pictures…i could be wrong. either way whatever
14 days till columbus, still gotta get tickets for me & friends
that guy looks very very familiar. isn’t he a roadie or friend of the mystic valley band? Can’t forget that hat and mustache.
was the megaphone for Jesus Christ Was An Only Child? I cant remember of they played tha in Cinci
shashaw shashaw
Hoping that the tour is going well. Hope you’re getting enough to eat:)
Did he play Sam Peckinpah?
awesome joe!!!
I can see Tom’s horn up on stage
Nice to see all this prep cant wait to see you in Chicago….”we wont be sleeping in our autumn beds”……………………………….
There’s Isaacs Custom Laidnook Ibanez 353. And Erics instrument as well! What a feast for the eyes.
thats a beautiful sound playground.
OK I’m a bit confused. How many 7″ are there? Three? And is there another expected?
god damn. that would suck if someone stole the truck. heh that rhymed
that’s my copy of Safe Men!
Can’t wait until the show tomorrow night. It’ll be worth the 10-hour round trip. Can’t believe they’re coming to Halifax.
ive always loved the double drumset deal
I just feel sorry for whoever had to clean it up.
looks like Halifax, had a good night.
Why cross out Bury Me With It?!?! ugh… The View is an amazing replacement however.
How would you be able to pick just a few songs, when every single one is F-ing amazing. Can’t wait to see you in Portland on 9/20. If I may request, All Night Diner! Love the new Songs!
i hope they play some good songs sept 5th in spokane
gravity rides everything! damn you halifax people! August 29th show in Anaheim here I come! nah but seriously, whatever you guys play that night is very much appreciated.
oh my im beyond broke…..any one wanna donate a ticket for the anaheim gig next saturday
this photograph is so beautiful!
He’s Back in the wings, saving life. good to see.
What every Guitar Doc must have – pocket knife – Black & Decker box and a bike in case he needs to run out for more tools….
……. cool pic’s Pat thanks for all you do!!!
All I can say is brilliant photography…..this picture gives me goosebumps
All I can say is brilliant photography…….this picture gives me goosebumps
I heard that you guys played shit luck! please tell me sean or somebody recorded it and are planning to release it in the future
great show last night guys. cheers!
My heart stopped pumpin, but my blood was still alive…
You’ve named this one perfectly…
GREAT picture. What song is this?
great shot!
I believe this is from the rockin’ version of Education from that night!
lovely light!
why the feathers? is it like a talisman?
This is amazing!!! Good job Pat!!!
What an amazing show, came in from buffalo to catch it… so worth it, changed my life.
Nice shot. In the Light is a badass Led Zep song
when are you sending me that guitar in the mail??
you guys played shit luck @_@!!!!!???!?!
Thats one big megaphone!
That light is awesome
That light kinda reminds me of the one show where Isaac was talking about stonewashing jeans xD
lol the stonewashing jeans show is classic….”they look good, really…really good…”
this photo is amazing pat! getting stoked to see the show tomorrow at the aragon
you beautiful thing!
best night of my entire life! thank you isaac and modest mouse for being incredible.
bathtub monster!!!
We heard, “Is that Isaac Brock?” In which case EVERYONE looked over only to see them paddling down hill in a bucket right by the stage. We knew it had to be a decent show from that point on
I thought he did that during all night diner? Anyway, sick concert! Absolutely amazing!
I cant wait for the show tonight, and yea im going to get the zine
veggie dogs? =]
wow tom plays everything, even the tub
This picture confuses me. Are they half underground, or did they just try really hard to squeeze into that tiny tub? Or maybe the angle makes it look tiny…either way, that’s a genius photo. That would’ve been hilarious to watch.
good vittles!!
If only Steve Irwin were there
We were at this show and it was fuckin’ amazing! We can’t wait for MM to play here again!!
Haha that was a crazy show, great job modest mouse
i would to anything to hang out on tour with these guys!
Saw the show tonight, Great Job! Looked like you might have a had a few small technical difficulties, but I am sure that most people didn’t notice.
Thank You! Come again!
That was a rocking concert you guy’s! Great Job keep up the good work!
that show was beyond amazing. great set, hot hot hot as shit luck in there… isaac’s hand dripping beads of sweat was a great sign of the intense goodness that was being laid out for us to feast on! pat, if you have any photos of the show, could you post them? thanks again
just curious… is there going to be any more pics from the Chicago show? It was such a good time!
haha I was watching all of this from across the street! fuck yes! i want to see the one when they were throwing a broom like a spear
timid turtle, lol
Is this how his “injured eye” occured?
chicken dogs! they were really good! thanks guys!
I was there! sweet concert, i hope to go again, cant be a concert without the moshpit
dammit i wish my friend didnt get his liscense revoked before the concert….so freakin wish i was there
Nice pics from the Aragon lets see some more of the front row and the band!!!!! Please!!!
Great show I got some good pics is there somewhere I could send them for you to view?
Holyshit…I love that…
Priceless! It’s times like this that I wish I still lived in WV instead of CO so I could have been at this show.
wow.
I spot myself! That was amazing show. Very uplifting and perfect.
Please post pictures of the front row
You should share with us! I was there too, and would love to see the pictures you got…. Maybe you can post it as your website in this comment box, or even better make a tiny url out of it and post it here!
That show was AMAZING! Me and my best friend drove 10 hours to see them for my birthday. Modest Mouse is by far the best live show out there! MIND BLOWING PERFORMANCE ;0)
Love Modest Mouse AND Japanese Motors.
Don’t get too close to the castle walls, or you’ll make the king and his people angry.
MODEST FUCKING MOUSE TOMORROW!!!!!!
HAVNT SEEN THEM SINCE FEBRUARY!
I WOULD DIE HAPPY IF THEY PLAYED TRUCKERS ATLAS FOR ME AND MO
I NEED REST TO WAKE UP EARLY TO GET IN LINE
SEE YOU LADS THERE
last saw them in Feb too, Im gonna wake up nice n’early this time
jenny, you can create an account on Imagekind, then anyone can look at your pics. Just follow the link under Limited Edition Prints above on the right.
I love Aragon ballroom, its pretty inside. I saw Interpol there back in ‘07. Great picture Pat!
well ive been here since 7am and so far just me and my friend mo and another guy
its quiet but i saw a black bus go to the back a couple hours ago
Love that the microwave says “Do Not Use” hahahaha.. aw.. But I bought hot pockets!
lol, do not use on the microwave… just struck me funny
the show fucking rocked last night guys, though isaac never came out to say hi after the show
That had to be the most amazing show of my life!
I wish you’d post more pictures from the 22nd’s show!
The feathers were a great touch and the music was amazing!
Please, please, please post more pictures from the Sound Academy’s Show on the 22nd!
I was at that show! Great show! I also saw them doing that on the hillside, it was hilarious
FUCKING LAST NIGHT!
i cried. D:
you guys were AMAZING!
>_< fucccccccck.
im sad you’re gone.
YALL gotta play their again sometime!
the grove!
ANAHEIM! D: mannnn
Yeah, I didn’t see Isaac or any one else after their show in Columbus, so didn’t get to meet up with them…but I did meet a rather large….not -so-nice security guard.
Killer ink.
great light set up, great photography, thanks pat and stephen, you guys add a very nice touch to wonderful music.
it was nice meeting you on saturday pat your a super cool guy and i cant wait to see the photos!
i saw your tweet about everyone dying in the sun haha but it was worth it even tho i have a racoon sunburn due to my glasses MODEST MOUSE ALL THE WAY!!!!
is that the star to “stiff animal fantasy” in the background.
aaahhh!!! I love JB
Awesome! Any Built To Spill pictures?
Jack Black rocks!
they should make chocolate together
HAHA! That’s rad!
thats rad. black looks like isaacs brother or cousin, cousin black with brother ike.
I see me front row on the right behind dude in the purple shirt
good picture!!
i, er… don’t think that’s a guy. (;
Fantastic!
We saw you on the webcast
No good places to hid behind the amp and in between the drums?
that is what pure fuckin awsome would look like if you were to take a picture, only thing better is if they has their instruments
Modest Mouse played an awesome show yesterday, and Pat took some great pictures. Thanks for coming to San Francisco!
jim and mm make the perfect couple
Why are only the stairs carpeted? Interesting….
joe is cool
when we meet him he made my sharpie marker a autograph whore
When Pat sees a photo opportunity, he always takes it. We all knew he was there anyway, so why hide anyway.
pat don’t leave us hangin’! did JB pass down the pick of destiny to isaac?!?!
awesome picture! hey pat, a close up picture of jim and isaac’s pedalboards would be really cool to see. any chance that’s possible?
Thanks for posting more photo’s pat. This was one of the best show’s I have yet to see. I just hope you guys come back to Chicago soon, I miss you already!
How adorable. Joe is a cutie (and so is the dog!)
Awesome picture. I’m so glad this was webcasted.
j.green appears to be levitating
Pat, how do I buy this one?
Put the picture of the girls in the headdresses back up – it’s a great picture!
Holy cow…. I am late late late. Just ordered the zine. Today. And there are still some to be had:) awesome. Second. Just saw the band in columbus, OH, and all I can say is…. holyshitthebestdamnthingtohitmyeardrumsinsomelongeffintime!!!!!!!!
xoxo
Pat, this photo has like an old school fugazi, feel to it, new cameras but same eye, its killer.
and red cups filled with liquid. that’s always nice. (:
BEST SHOW EVER!!!
So cool. Seeing this on the live stream was my first time seeing him do this on tape. Not totally in person, but it was still awesome to actually see it happen. And i actually heard his voice through the pick-ups! What a cool trick, and performed by THE best musician.
Great photo, Pat! The lines are really good.
damn! lucky ass mechanics!
Hey Pat! What’s up with all the pictures of Isaac’s back? Get your ass offstage and take some front shots, why don’t you? Seriously.
great photo of issac getting all jimi hendrix on his guitar. really wish i could have been there.
Great photo – nice look on Ike’s face!
LMFAO
hee yah!
that sir is the single most amazing photo i have ever seen………
pat your a genius and so is isaac….i want this framed as a motivational poster and the under title will read
“No matter how drunk or stoned you get you will always succeed…….just look at this guy”
cant think of anything whitty at the moment but ill get back to you on that
this pic is win
isaac smiles?
you guys really deserve the award !!
Hope for best yet to come in your path guys !!!
I really love the stuff you produce !!!
Hurray!
Excellent photos. After watching a recording of the stream and seeing you in the background I was pumped to see what photos you had taken. Great, but I will admit, I was hoping for more pictures…
Ok, the award say “Filmore, Sept 2…SOLD OUT.”
yeah, apparently we were a long tunnel of fleshy fans out there! Glad I wasn’t on acid up there.
Great show!
“Be careful!!!”, screamed Isaac. Right, people, be careful, gentle with each other. It’s a messy world out there. Look out for each other. Form a damn community where you’re at with some balanced body mind and soul.
Awesome show lastnight in Billings Montana.
Another reason why I visit the this website every day, ecstatic for the concert tomorrow night!
welcome to montana, im so excited that you are here! see you tonight!!!!!!!!
I can kind of see my face in this one
You should upload more. I saw you take about five million 
haha amazing show. The bruises on my chest are so worth it.
YAH they win something of an award, I am happy to see this happy time that you experience.
omg, look at his face, eyes, smile!!!!! he’s so amazing, so cute!!!!
omg the outsideland!!!!!! i wish i was there
haha but i went to Street Scene!!!
wow. omg!!! lol jajaja
really nice
I LOVE FILM!
Wow! Love those!
Truckers atlas is my favorite modest mouse song out of any
hey pat, i met you in billings after the show; you’re great and so is your photography!!
love this photo, too!
~kris
Beautiful. I love scenery pictures like this.
great pic with a great song as it’s title. i love it.
Welcome to Montana man hahaha
Man, I feel bad. That great show and they treat you to Spokane Salad.
At least you got pizza.
Fantastic show guys, thank you.
There’s only more of this on the way to Seattle, thanks for capturing this one Pat.
Tom hit everything on that 100%, nice work!
That picture is really sweet!
Thanks for getting me those autographs in Billings Pat. That meant a lot to me.
What a lovely shot.
Something they make at the legendary Mr. Brains
that is an amazing shot~
For some strange reason, I really like this picture.
Great shot. I love how the cigarettes gets blurred in the hand, yet the reflection shows it…. that IS a cigarette right?
thats a good life
hey pat,
what brand of half-frame camera do you use? and what film for this shot?
i’ve been very interested in buying one but don’t know were to start.
thanks
i live here. its just mind blowing to think that they were here and saw what i see nearly every day. that picture is of downtown spokane
its a olympus pen ft with fuji 800 speed film and a 40 mm 1.4 lens…
sweet! the photo came out great the stage lights really set as a great background of issac.
im jealous.
Awesome photo! Awesome show! Thank you so much for stopping Montana. My year was made
Beautiful
what a sweet observation this pic is, indeed. i love how small the people look. pretty cool of the engineers, too, to blend the cement and rocks like that, or, make the damn and canal thing sort of form with nature – not sure what that’s called, or how to articulate what i see — its just, i guess its like the canal and damn are sort of sculpted out of the natural topography — there is some kind of respect of nature going on there, even if for just the beauty part of it. thanks for grabbing it on your cam. peace.
Show last night was completely amazing.
Great shot Pat! I flew 6 flights, 7 cities, 3 states, 12 hours to see that show and it was worth it!
I remember hearing on a college tour that the bridge (and I think the dam as well) was designed by Gonzaga students for an engineering class, they did a great job. This is a great photo of it, nice job Pat!
Is this from the Anaheim show? If so, could you PLEASE put up the rest?
haha! cool. it’s like mystery science theater 3,000!
Such an awesome photo.
Wow Dusty, thats awesome! Great picture
It was such an awesome concert!
Thanks for posting, Pat G.
Lookin good, Tom!
Do they swim with their hats on?
Cool pic Pat!!!
Cool photo of one of the many man-made atrocities committed against nature. I bet the salmon don’t run up that river anymore – and if they do, the volume is nothing compared to the past.
I know! They should change the name of Spokane to Minnow Brook…
surf’s up braaaa…. :p
wish i was in hawaii right now. head south(west)!
signature Pat Graham photo, IMHO… i really like your style
Hey Pat, I was wondering if I could send a request of a picture? I know several people may have been pictured, so this can be difficult. In Missoula, MT I was the first person in line outside the Wilma and I was front row dead center during the show. I was wearing a green and gold Green Bay Packers hat. I feel that a picture of me and/or the area I was located in may have been taken. If you can find the time and if you even have photo’s from the Wilma in Missoula still left and if you have the time to look and find me and/or the area I would appreciate it very much if I could get a copy anyway possible. Thank you so much for your time, I absolutely loved the show and thank you and all of Modest Mouse for coming to Missoula, MT. I hope to see Modest Mouse again and soon.
Thank you,
Connor Greene
P.S. I apologize for the long comment, I am unsure of another way to contact you. Thank you.
hang ten tom!!
lookingprettyeightball
Adam, shut it. This is a beautiful tribute to human superiority and our dominion over all living things.
daaaaaaamn, would kill to see you guys there!
greatest shot ever?
Thanks for the great show! Its about time you guys made it to Hawaii. Please come to Maui next time!
Whens a doc. coming out, sean is sneaking around, something had to be filmed, when pat, when?
Great work, pat!
Great photo.
i work at a nursing home , and this lady i take care of she just moved to oregon but before she left i was in her room and i found that exact same lizard paw or whatever the fuck it is in her room. that just weirds me out that i go to mm’s website and see the same weird creepy thing i found in this old ladies room in a nursing home. where did he get that?
god. 1997 1997 we’re all waiting for the year 97. i wish i could have experienced an mm tour back in the day .
that cashier has no idea shes standing next to a god.
fucking great show, just keep getting better. i saw you guys in 90’s. great show!! come back again!!
i’ve stared at the sight in this picture many-a-time in person, being a spokane native. plenty of those times i have been watching and feeling those falls race toward the ocean while listening to modest mouse on my mp3 player. it is amazing to see one of my favorite sights in the world on my favorite band’s website. i finally got to see you guys live. i am 32 and it was the single most satisfying moment of my life. you guys make the music that defines my life. thank you so much for existing. keep it comin!
How did Isaac break his ribs?
come back to maine!
The most amazing band. I own every album.
Come to Austin Tx.
PLEASE!
Fucking hell isaac what did you do!
dang he was serious huh.
well at least he sang ‘the good times are killing me’ literally
the hells goin on…someone give that man a hand
Love Modest Mouse
pat, you always seem to get really awesome shots of Eric, more so than any of the fellows, I wonder if he knows that his pictures are always cool. Lucky
Eric <3
eric, you are my bass guitar muse. great pic but i wish i knew which song was being played.
Simple, Yet Elegant,
I’m takin notes
Ha, looks like Jesus
gotta love the scent of sea water mixed with rock and roll. good fun
whoever threw that shit was a fucking genius
goddamn! I need to see this band soon.
y’know we got tons of seaweed here in portland, maine!
Modest Mouse is amazing!
That is a hole mess of stingers and banded cable.
is jesus, revolting ///oo\\\ play in brazil thankU
i slammed my foot down on a spider in austin that looked very similar to this one. i felt really bad about it but he or she was really big and i was scared because it was at night and the thing just crawled out into the open and stopped in the middle of the workshop, staring at me i presume with its thousand eyes. so i killed it, and now i see this and it just freaks me out all over again, well not this actual picture but, the memory that it reminds me of anyway. thanks for the atonement opportunity, guys.
was this photo taken fresh today at the crystal?
I agree Trent. It looks like he’s about to get abducted by an alien spacecraft. So long to this cold, cold part of the world….
That’s a dam.
someone photoshop some moth wings onto that bad boy.
Hey, that’s my surfboard!! Hope you guys enjoyed surfing with my brother Robbin and put my old board to good use. I had to fly to Japan on short notice, or I would have been out there with you!
He looks like he belongs on that couch. This is very nice.
That’s a great looking photo Patrick. Thanks!
Haha! This is great!
I really LOL’d when I saw this at work,
Isaac really needs his own show or something, hes def a character
Ahahaa, “don’t make me go out there!”
Jim Fairchild is awesome.
if only I lived in the other portland
IF ONLY!!
i love this photo….
I especially like new songs autumn beds, satellite skin, and the whale song.
I gotta say, you guys were just fantastic as shit last night. Despite the mediocre opening band, I loved that you didn’t just play a bunch of stuff from We Were Dead. The only song I did not know was your opening song. After that it was all good; and I loved the Tiny City Made of Ashes extended thing. That was just amazing!
When I was walking in everyone looked ecstatic about it, and I loved the jokes Issac popped about love and digging yourself into a grave. Not to mention the guitar one.
I am glad that you played Autumn Beds, since that’s my favourite song on your new album. Another thing, Dashboard didn’t sound to great. Those were my only problems. I danced so much that I could barely walk today, since my legs were so soar.
Great job guys!
awesome pic
LOVE IT!!!!!! Thanks for getting it out…
so awesome. seriously.
I bought this vinyl at the Columbus show. The album is awsome. has lyrics to most of the songs too.
Aren’t you a little late on this…?
P.S. Greatness
stop touring the u.k….just stay in the u.s.of a
Ive commemorated this night with an “anchor balloon w/ colorful patches (my own twist) tattoo on my boo-boo’d arm.
Thanks MM for being amazing!
u know i bought the cd….and it looks like there was a factory scratch inside the cd….cause some songs are skipping….and the miserable man at the cd shop can barely change his pants…i doubt he’s gonna change my cd….so it looks like im consistently consistent on getting screwed.
at least we’ve got the booklet………….how bout coming to the electric factory in pa again….im the short blonde…with the tall fro guy….you should us the eye on your hand….is that permanent……it should mr. eyes hand.
woops my names tarah
I Love It So….
I made a video for “History Sticks To Your Feet” but Youtube wont allow it
look at joe’s guns!
Come on, I want to see y’all make it to New Orleans ASAP! If Modest Mouse would perform one year extremely soon at Jazzfest, I think I could die happy.
Is this the end of the photoblog?
Hope to see the Modest Mouse gang in London.. take care
Pat, more pictures of wacky antics please?
raleigh nc here…..keep on doin what you do because you do it well…..just be careful in the process
The Whale Song video was amazing. Please do more projects with Bent in the future!
It may also give the military authority the power to act in place of civilian authorities, if a decree specifies it explicitly. ,
Just got it in the mail today, awesomeness.
That’s no ukulele. It has 6 strings. It’s a small guitar.
This is the limited edition print I got from the first ‘Zine….I love it, but I don’t know where to put it! Haha, it’s those little things that stop the whole cycle from….doing whatever it does o_0
Hey! It’s Crazy gnome!!
He’s laughing at your stuff!
I won’t leave my house for a week….
i miss the photoblogging too!
They must be working on “new material” instead of photoshooting.
Damn. By the time I found out there was a tour, you had already been in cleveland a long time ago. By the way, why is there so much buzz about Marr but so little about Joe? I don’t get it.
Should start doing that onstage.
Tom, whenever you guys make your way back to the east coast, I’ll have a board waiting for you. surfs nothing like Hawaii, but surfing is surfing and surfing with modest mouse would be a make a wish foundation kinda dream come true. If that doesn’t persuade you, then please come back to the Philly, New Jersey area and play a show or two…PLEASE! Plus, I’d like to hangout with you guys again like at the Electric Factory
The second guitar in, is it just the photo or does isaac have this guitar strung with 12 strings? If so, what songs does he use it for?
Oh and one more question, Ive been a modest mouse fan for 11 years, yes 11 years and I have never missed a show, but I always forget to look and see what make and model the first guitar is.. Please help me. I can never find a guitar sold like it with a whammy guard like that.. how he just pulls it up and bends the strings.. any information on that guitar would be much appreciated.
spiders with wings. cool
Hmm . . . Isaac what do you have on your ipod? Screamo? Indie? Country? I can’t guess.
i have a sinking feeling that by the time i have a positive balance this web of widowflies will be “sold out.” haha wish i knew was i was missin.
if you let joe smoke just make sure you stay at least twenty feet away from the whore’s door because joe doesn’t seem to care who he is anymore. peace, lizard.
Please do not tell us how the keyboard got sticky. ,
If you do not understand the answers, ask the doctor to explain them clearly. ,
We are missing your photos, Pat, hope you are OK and still enjoying life on the tour.
I can’t seem to find this vid; says the website has been changed or deleted. I did however get to see the Mondays about a week ago in Pontiac, Michigan. It was great! Shaun’s awesome. So is the soundcheck guy that just repeats “Shaun, Shaun Micheal, Shaun Michael Ryder” for about 20 minutes before the show!
I love these guys. I’ve got it allmost and king rat are the shit. I have loved this band since lonesome crowded west
I am in total photoblog withdrawal.
Love the stuff guys. Made me break out the record player, but I think its time for me to upgrade. I am so glad that vinyl is coming back!
that is my cowdog i was playing my drum when you came up further contact would be awesome
Yeah, I’m with the others on this one…I’m really missing my daily check-in’s on this photoblog. I hope this isn’t the end of it…
We miss you Pat, seeing your artistic eye and the other side of the band is fantastic.
Show was incredible, i’m still thinking about it. Thanks for getting this! :]
East coast needs some YUV come to virginia.
WOOOOOW!!!
Looks like the UK is diggin’ some MOUSE as well, awesome. Hope to see you back in the states soon guys.
I remeber watching some of this from the balcony. It was the hottest I think I’d ever been in a venue.
Ummm….has anyone seen Pat? He was here a while ago but umm… he seems to have dissappeared.
I love this album, especially “I’ve Got it All (most)” although many of my friends don’t like it. I love it!
P.S. I got a modest mouse tattoo last year. It’s the logo from Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks except on part of the banner it says, “Positive, Negative” and yes I know that song (Whenever you breathe out, I breathe in) is not on that album, It’s one of my favorite songs….next to Night on the sun.
JUST THOUGHT I’D LET YOU KNOW!
P.S.S. I love modest mouse!!!!!
nice photo
This photoblog was my homepage…but I may have to change it since it’s not updated anymore
The band should get to play on the bouncy floor… That would be rad
oh marry me isaac.
Will I ever get to meet that smokeshow?

Oddly enough that jumble of nl4, soco, and other various snakes is quite organized (color coded, even). But I really do hope that mini source 4 looking light is LED.
modest mouse should come to detroit! please?

Agreed Mike! there anychance of these being sold at upcoming gigs in UK and Ireland???
Modest Mouse and Pat Graham work together like LSD and bright lights. I love everything you guys do as a band and it’s amazing to see the growth process in your music. Keep doin’ what you’re doin’ because at this point I personally feel like I depend on you guys.
Come Back Soon!
America and Britain are alright, but where you should really go is New Zeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaland, yes?
The Big Day Out 2011
you have to do like no work, and get payed. yaay!
I am going through picture withdrawals. Please bring back the pictures.
I just now started listening through Modest Mouse’s full setlist and I have been blown away. I am a young song writer and Modest Mouse has inspired me in many ways. I hope to see alot more from this band.
If you are looking for this, or any other Limited Modest Mouse merch or Out of print vinyl, check out this glacial pace shop! http://www.glacialpace.myshopify.com
you guys are the best. my one wish before I die is to see you play live; you really are the shit.
What’s up – Wow, what a great forum
Just registered and wanted to say hello.
Что это за хуйня?
no more updates??
Merry Christmas to all… and to all a good night.
ok the joke is over, bring back pat now!!!
i love the new album….but i miss very much getting drunk and playing that you tube of strange interludes with the weird drunk russians. please bring back that video.
Hi babies!
I’m the owner of Modest Mouse’s Orkut community (Brazil’s largest social network). I’m from Brazil, and me and my pals are wondering if the rumors about Modest Mouse coming on tour to Brazil on July 16th, in Sao Paulo, are real.
Well, are they? Are you playing for us in 2010? Please say yes!!!
I hope you read this, and I hope you can answer me!
Love,
Clarissa
Love,

what about neil young when he was younger amazing. the other night I had 4 hits of LSD wow guys you fucking kick ass. the acid test to modest mouse passed now i need to see mm live electric factory or where ever we meet again but i thought i would write you my thoughts.
I dream upon the nighthawks peopling heaven,
Or plunging headlong with fierce twang afar;
And on the bat’s mute antics, who would seem
Dimly to have made out my secret place,
Only to lose it when he pirouettes,
On the last swallow’s sweep; and on the rasp
In the abyss of odor and rustle at my back,
That, silenced by my advent, finds once more,
After an interval, his instrument.
return when you can, we’ll be here, carrying on regardless.
I’m looking for booking information on your wibsite & can’t locate it. Please contact me in regards to possible University venues in the State of Arkansas.
what are u all up to? no music then turn out the lights no shows turn out my life. p.a. sucks so save my soul gods and help me out with a show. i got a tattoo of a fly for my hate of modest mouse kidding i love every fucking cd so why not get a tat of a fly to represent mr. modest mouse. ill send pics later like you even read these fucked up conversation with myself how about an email saying hellllllllooooooooo! why cant we communicate like that? i know ppl are fucking crazy stupid well your not famous just a really awesome fucking band! the new cd rocks the one b4 that rocked and so on. oh by the way how about the dead weather what a great sound. talk to you all soon i hope unless some UFO sucks us up to the eye in the sky.

Check out my fly tattoo for my love 4 mouse BY CLICKING ON MY NAME ABOVE. You better rate all my pictures cause i bought all your cds and show lots of shows. I met Isaac at the electric factory in philly on may3 2007 then again later that year he showed me his eye tattoo fucking awesome well here is the link to me and Mr brock http://www.flickr.com/thcrocks AND LEAVE A MODEST MOUSE COMMENT ON MY MISSHIGHTIMES.COM/USERS/THEGREENGIRL
ps: you guys owe me this much.
I bought both the CD and LP! amazing. well not as good as Lonesome Crowed… or Moon & Antartica…
Any chance of u guys ever coming to Romania?I don’t know how many fans u have here but I’m sure u will sell out tickets if u would play here.Love U guys,love ur music
This was a great way to start the show off. Everyone in the pit saw their “sled riding”. We knew it could only get better from there.
Reno has a new venue guys! You should really come back and play at the Knitting Factory Reno…you haven’t been here in so long and we miss you!!
What the hell has happened to the Mouse? No updates in 6 months, where is Isaac? I’m getting kind of nervous that my favorite band has lapsed into a mystersous abyss. Isaac, just let us know your still around, thanks. Pat, are you still around???
Modest Mouse = the soundtrack to my life! I love your music. It’s pure bliss to my ears. Please keep it up for years and years and years.
Isaac and the rest of the guys definately write the soundtrack to my life.. so excited to hear they are playing the pitchfork festival, should i start hitching now?
Hey, just wanted to say that I think Modest Mouse is a great band. I cannot think of one song that I dislike nor cannot stand. I would just like to let you know that I’m using your band for my economic’s class project. If you would like to check out the process I’ll be updating it almost everyday. I love the music, I love the band, you guys are great. Thanks for the amazing music. Keep it up.
-Hunter Eagle
My aunt and i grew up here in ohio and spent alot of time together. The age difference was only a few years with her being my elder. To me my aunt was top respect of anything that was actually worth while in music. ‘97 comes and i’m 9. i meet up with aunt and she won’t take her headphones off. i finally grab them and put them to my ears. that was the first time i ever heard you guys. lonesome crowded west-styro boots/ianoia(abbrev) and i didn’t understand a damn word hardly. didn’t matter though. the drum line and banjo already made sure i had a new favorite band. i listened to that cd probaly without taking time to breathe. i never heard anything like it before but knew i was hearing something great. i just felt lucky. my aunt always kept a watch to see when you may be touring. finally you were coming close but we were too young. i had to wait til i was 13. first concert ever. insane!!! went to every show since within a two state rad. but this show would kill the streak. screwed by my job. had it set up
but denied last minute. tragedy. gave ticket away to friend and griped the entire day of show while working. thankfully you have this show coming up. july 16th still a ways away but ill most likely count the minutes all the way to union park. i want to thank all of you. for the greater half of my life you guys have had something to do with nearly every great moment i can remember. you guys always bust your ass for not just me but all your listeners. see you in chicago
…smoke like ribbons?
Honestly its my favorite album of all time!
Yeah, we miss you in New England. Loved catching you on the Good News Tour in Maine.
Modest Mouse is absolutely amazing. Quite possibly be the coolest band I have ever heard. I need them to come to Pittsburgh.
I have a Modest Mouse CD. It is Green and says “Modest Mouse, Volume 3″ on it it has 18 tracks but it does not have the song titles on it. Can anybody help me out with the song titles?
I just bought two more albums (the moon and antarctica and good news for people who love bad news) yesterday. 3rd planet is still my favorite song by them, along with barnacles. Modest Mouse ROCKS.
I think there are more pics to be shown of the Glacial Pace Showcase, ’cause I’m pretty sure that dude scurrying around with a camera in front of us up in the balcony was Pat…. By the way, if there’s another Modest Mouse zine, I’d buy it right up…If there’s another one I hope it comes with a cool limited edition photo like the first one did. That was pretty awesome
So….I doubt you guys read this, but if you do I want to let you know it’s really cool having you in Portland. I’ve lived here 22 years (my whole life) and it’s a cool town, but like most cool places it’s kind of started to get…..I don’t know…crowded. It’s not quite the same anymore, but it definitely feels cool with Isaac living down the street. I’ve gotten the impression Isaac isn’t a fan of big city life, and listening to his lyrics and knowing he still lives here despite the crowding makes it seem like it’s not so bad. I find myself wanting to go live in a quiet logging town from time to time, getting drunk and being as loud as I damn well please, but maybe Portland isn’t so bad. Hell, I KNOW it isn’t so bad. I might have heard you jamming once, or maybe just wishful thinking
Anyway, this is probably the last place you’d look for some some random encounter with a fan, but if for some reason anyone in the band or anyone else I guess wanted to have a drink in the Portland area, feel free to send me a message, jacksamlucy@google.com or http://www.facebook.com/WyattMute ……That is if you want to hang out with a guy who talks too much, especially when he’s nervous 
Guilty and king rat great More darker and more yelling like past tracks
needed though I fall asleep during the whale song. That’s not
why I listen to mm. All songs still worth while though
hey guys im looking forward to the chicago show but i was really wondering when u guys would be playing back up in washington again i really would like to see you guys again.
Just got turned onto MM a couple of years ago, and Holy Shit!!!! i dont think ive played anything else since!!! Saw the show in Columbus Aug of 09, and plan on seeing them in July in Chicago (2 days before my birthday) HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!
Gonna be back in Ohio anytime soon?
please come to tulsa oklahoma please please
i l0VE M0DEST M0USE <3 <3 <3 =] =] =]
Is this going to be limited to a certaint number of copies? Or is it going to be around for a while?
Hoorrraaayyyy!!
good stuff
a low….i luv you wont you tell me your name.
yall need to hurry up and come back to Raleigh NC ^_^ love you guys seen yall twice one of my favorite bands ever MODEST MOUSE ROCKS
Sweet!
Where have you been mouse? Look at the date! I haven’t seen anything new here for 6 months.
damn it, do you absolutely MUST have a credit card to buy. i demand a checking account option!
i love modest mouse =) i wanna go to a concert!!
love this photo!!
you know why
Best fucking MM concert out of the three I’ve been to EVER. I had so many bruises from that.
whats happening fellas…. I live on the naval base in Great Lakes, Il which is about an hour from Chicago and I know a lot of Sailors here would love to see you play. The July 16th show is close but not a lot of us can get out because its still “working hours” what are the chances of getting a show set up here on base? That would be amazing and i know it would be great for a lot of people here considering this is a training command and a lot of the people here cant get out all the time and do stuff. Anyway, its just a dream i suppose, I doubt youll see this anyway. Keep up the good work. I love your music.
Eddie
Wow ten years. This is still my favorite Modest Mouse Album. Hope to get my hands on this after pay day.
when will u guys tour!?!
Modest Mouse is the best band in my book
I hope they play at bonnaroo in Tennessee again one year.
Why don’t you fella’s ever come down my to Texas? You see, I am one of a kind in my small town of Silsbee, Texas. Its full of nothing but rednecks and meth heads. The gayest bands come to my area such as Jason Aldean, Nickelback, and tons of other mainstream bullshit. It is crucial to my life that i see you perform at least one time before i die. (its like, my new years resolution every year. no fucking lie) You guys are the greatest musical gift that my ears have ever recieved. Your music has gotten me through the years and I never cease to be surprised that you haven’t sold out. I love you all from the bottom of my heart.
(especially you Isaac)
This is one of my absolute favorite albums from Modest Mouse. Wait a minute, they are ALL GREAT! I’m looking forward to seeing you guys live again!
Fuck da police!
You sir, have been lei’d.
i dunno im gettin it though
Isaac!!!! You’re supposed to take your shoes off before you lay on the furniture! But if you give me some juicy fruit and a bottle of beer, I won’t tell anyone… I swear.
glad you guys are coming back to Detroit!
hi, just wondering if you guys were ever come back to south, FL?? I totally missed the last two shows sadly. I was so upset. Been a fan for a long time, and I see you not going to be around this tour. Which I am sad about, but considering flying up to see you at the fest. but who knows this economy kills a 2 job and full time student such as me, cash flow to see the greatest band ever. <3 keep south florida in mind.
…mildly confused about NO ONE’S FIRST AND YOU’RE NEXT. I’ve been a huge mouse fan since around 2000, and hold the whole catalog very, very dear. It took me a little time to warm up to GOOD NEWS, I immediately loved WE WERE DEAD, but this material just seems forced. I listen with no bias or elitist compromises, not trying to put it down, just at a loss…..might I have some sort of “mouse dementia”? Could my years of constantly intimate jamming have driven me mad?
all messed-up
-Mr. Flat-Top Tony
I’d love to see you guys so soon, hopefully you’ll play another show in Portland soon. The Glacial Pace showcase was the pinnacle of concert experiences for me. Any other show will be hard-pressed to top that!
I don’t know what the chances of this ever making it to the band are, but I’ve been listening to a band called “Murder By Death”, and I can’t help but think that if members of each band collaborated the end result would be excellent! I’m in no way affiliated with them, so this isn’t a plug. Other MM fans should check them out though, they’re pretty awesome. I think another “Ugly Casanova” type project with them would be…well, too awesome for words.
theres already an album called the moon and antarctica is this like a remix or is it gunna hve all the same songs on it
u got to live life time and again you got to live life time and again
you got fight time again and again
you got to fight time when your dead
you got to live life again and againyou got to live life till the end
you got fight time fight till the end
you have fight time in the end.
modest mouse is the definition of real music…. i love this band!
i have to free my mind and think! jobs are a fucking joke the dude who interviewed me believes in SMILE AND DIAL what the fuck. And he Called Anthony and I bonnie and Clyde. Fucking no job for me call it lazy or just fucking smoke another cigg and learn to forget. Im going to prank the job now. have a nice day!!!!
And one more comment why do ppl say stupid shit that doesnt attract any flies.
You should announce whether or not you’ll be playing The Twilight Series in Salt Lake this summer… I really hope so!
So I live in San Diego currently, and there aren’t any shows anywhere close to the coast. I am trying to plan a trip to one of the cities so i was considering Chicago and i wonder if this show will be a good one to attend where i can get the most out of it.
Come to the south Damn it!!! Particularly St. Pete, FL. I’ll even drive to Gainsville!!
I’m very annoyed at you boys. How did I not know about your show until after The Orange Peel sold out in Asheville? Aren’t you supposed to be sending me emails?! : (
Hoping there may be a pit stop in Raleigh. Looking forwqard to baking for the occasion if it happens.
Wow 10 yrs let me lick your ass! And i love you and i listen ears wide open. you and clien dion! wow mm myfav band. blah blah blah. hey! if you go to las vegas wal-mart, wait till you hear the voice on the greeter she is amazinggggggggggggggggggg. and i sit alone and listen to mm and eat acid. rob rob rob rob rob thats all im hearing my roomate gets abused by some lady she wants to cut his mullet off cause he cant get a telemarketing job. This is all true im for real. rob cut your mullet bat wing mullet. What about this one…Lost Vegas. goodbye my great value coffee creamers. And what fucking book is that person talking about? in my book of shit lies im going now and remeber this is all true.
I wish this comment space allowed me to doodle with my mouse and then submit. good idea huh…make it happn capn. by the why im god….with no powers.
hell-oats. do you wear ‘d’ pants. if so….please make sure you make liquid…not solid loafs…..the plastic is just not strong enough to handle the load.
Remember what you told us isaac backstage in pa 2yrs ago…when I told you…you play a great guitar…and you said…thats what keeps the lights on. your a modest man…with a mangled planned….tricks up your flannels…and grins on your chin. your a bastard child from a dressed up aligator.
Why is it blurred out?
Looks like a cig in the reflection O.o
No matter where you guys will be in europe I’ll be there!
PLEASE haha get over here
10 year anniversary; that’s awesome! I’ve been listening to you guys for 12 years now and this is the album that did it for me. There’s a lot of bands out there and a lot of good ones that will go down in history, you guys have been that band for me and I thank you guys for all the awesomeness you are and can’t wait to go see your next show. I hope you have another 10 years of kick ass music.
Don’t we all wish we could spend our day like this? Wow, the life of a rockstar =D
the first time i saw modest mouse was in 1997. i played them for my friends and everyone fell in love w/ it. seen them 10 or more times since then – including when isaac’s jaw was broken at coachella. then they added johnny marr, my favorite guitarist ever. what next? can this band get any more phenomenal? eagerly awaiting the new record. keep it up – from a long time fan.
The only that speaks clearer than than their lyrics is their melodies, let it all drop!
By far my favorite song since Moon & Antarctica.
Pls come to edmonton or vancouver. We promise to make it worth yor while
WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
You all are amazing I have loved your music for years 10 . It changes with me thank you for your love and energy you put into your art! Come to MONTANA!!!
What can i say its a masterpiece……………fkn BRUTAL
Listening to Modest Mouse was the reason i kept myself alive during those angsty teen years. If they were putting out this shit 10 years ago i would have killed myself. new albums are so self masabatory souless big label horse shit
modest mouse, i had a crush on a girl in 7th grade, her name was verseli. her older brother was chance, she turned me onto you, and then i went to see you in 8th gradewith the shins. my friends mom got too drunk so we never got to see anyone play, but the shins gave us snap bracelets.
when i was 17 my rich aunt payed for me to do a semester up the atlantic, and go sea kayaking in newfoundland. my moms maiden name is ericson..
we ended up hiting a whale we were studing while underway at night.
it wasnt any whale. it was a right whale. i was holding the helm. it was bow watches fault, but i was 2degrees offcourse. so it was mine too, although the crew said we were on a coalision course.
regardless, ive never felt that feeling, it was like the ship vibrated, and i felt this feeling of empending doom, but it was closer to an alien envoking fear with witchcraft.
have you heard that blue whales can sing across the ocean? or how sperm whales sing in clicks? it must be a very powerful vibration they send out, and unfortunatly i felt its wrath.
i bought a shirt at that show, the one with the sperm whale eating the squid, and then i finally held a piece of scrimshaw in my hand.
it felt like a demonic idol. i thought i would like it, but we hit the whale before i got to hold it.
its fucked, maybe im manic and its nothing.
regardless, thank you so much for the music, its done so much for me.
Fantastic on many levels…
hmmm….unconscious vs conscious? What is dream life? What is real life?….Song and video are amazing, this band just keeps getting better and better, smarter and smarter.
One day isaac brock will finally give my music a listen, after this I will hop on-board the glacial pace band wagon.(IT MUST BE SLOW)
I cant even begin to to explain how brilliant and deep Modest Mouse, and unlike most modern music it has meaning. I’m probably the only kid in my school who listens to Modest Mouse and not mainstream, meaningless crap. And I can play lots of there songs on guitar. Modest Mouse forever!
P.S. Anybody got a album the recommend by Modest Mouse, I want a new one and already have No ones first and your next and The moon and antarctica. Preferably some of there older stuff.
Thanks
Thank you Modest Mouse for coming to boston. If any of the band ever notices this, can you guys play steam engenious?Though all of your music seems very good to me so i wouldn’t be upset not to hear it
House of Blues! wicked fuck’n sweet! cant wait.
You guys should figure out a way to release the original interstate 8 EP. I’ve been looking for that forever. -.-
come to texas or a state close….. isaac your lyrics speak exactly what my soul feels but could never put into words!!! GOD WHO’D WHAT TO BE SUCH AN ASSHOLE
cam,
get Sad Sappy Sucker!!!
Dude sad sappy sucker is their oldest and best album in my opinion I recommend it highly Isaac Brock you’re the man keep up the fantastic work man you’re my favorite living musician by far
You my friends have really helped me over the years with your music. The Whale song is one of favorites.
I really enjoy all of your albums. Dramamine and The ocean breathes Salty really do express a lot of emotion to me and for me. I love you.
Soo EPIC. This is why I absoutly love Modest Mouse alwayes making me think.
Cam,
I would suggest all of them, then you can decide which are your favorites.
Why do half these comments make no sense?
“By far my favorite song since Moon & Antarctica.”?????
“I’m probably the only kid in my school who listens to Modest Mouse and not mainstream, meaningless crap”
Congratulations, you have just made yourself sound like a total hipster douche.
“Listening to Modest Mouse was the reason i kept myself alive during those angsty teen years. If they were putting out this shit 10 years ago i would have killed myself. new albums are so self masabatory souless big label horse shit”
I hate it when people say new modest mouse is crap and old modest mouse is the greatest thing ever. I love both, and i think people that honestly loved what modest mouse made in the past, would appreciate their newer material. Any modest mouse is great modest mouse,Just my opinion though.
Anywayth, Modeth Mouthe = My Favoritesth Band Ever.
musical revelations … every time you put one out there, I am blown to bits and I find a discover a new aspect of myself. Thank you! … and the video is a total trip! Whatever you guys are doing, it’s working for me.

SIX-HEADED MOUSE BAND…
I happened to catch Modest Mouse on the tube late last night, during their appearance on “Late Show with David Letterman”.
They ruled. No surprise.
But that’s neither here nor there. What stood out for me was the number of members 7, what a great idea.
