Bob Mould - The Descent (live on Letterman)

Not exactly the best quality but I thought it was quite disappointing when the official video of the performance was put down, so... here it is! Enjoy!

    I think even Paul and Dave were pleasantly surprised. But they had to of heard Bob's work with Sugar and Husker Du. They were pretty tuned in to that scene as it was happening.

    I think Bob came on Letterman once more after this taping to promote Silver Age and I'll never forget it. I wanna say they played Star Machine but I could be wrong. Anyway, after they completely killed it, deadpan Dave comes over and says "hey, try harder next time". I almost pissed myself laughing.

    @@LB00146 - I actually like Grant's Husker songs a lot, but I just find the punk rock heroin addict to be a very boring thing. From Johnny Thunders to Dee Dee Ramone to Darby Crash to Sid Vicious, by 1980 it was DONE, nobody would do it like those guys again. Time for something new, but Grant not only stayed with dope, he kinda made it his identity, for decades after that. Boring.

    Hi, seven years ago! Dave has back and shoulder problems. You don't often see him reaching too far to shake hands because he might throw his back out, if I recall correctly. So not a lot of drummers got that unless they reached out for it.

    Yeah, the original upload (which was taken down) had much better, punchier audio. (Not a dig at the uploader of this video; this is one of my favourite ever performances of any song, and I’m extremely grateful that I can watch it again.)
