full video of their in-store performance at Generation Records earlier this year -
http://youtube.com/watch?v=_kQq_nbnpA0&fmt=18
part 1's audio is iffy but part 2/3 arn't bad

These dudes are great live. Really great for blowing off steam after a shitty day at work.

That video doesn't do it full justice, as awesome as it was. Definitely one of the craziest shows I've ever seen.

I have links to other videos and pics on my blog at http://gosleeveless.blogspot.com

this was one of the most fun/ridiculous shows i've ever been to

I saw them with Strike Anwyehre last month. They were incredible, but no one seemed to know the lyrics and the crowd wasn't as fun as these guys. Dan Yemin is my hero.

That looked great to be at.

Those copy paper Yemin masks were funny. :)

This was one of the radest things I have ever experienced, the tree dives were insane and Jeff Ziga lost his mind in the crowd. I could not believe how many people showed up for this, everyone set it off, but nothing bad happened to my knowledge.

This performance was legendary, so I'm very happy I was there to see it.

Also, kind of surprising Sailor Jerry posted the video after how unhappy the staff was with the performance. They pretty much forced them to stop and there was a fat guy with a bluetooth headset walking around in the crowd who was super-pissed and said something about how they were going to "bill the band" for the damage caused.

It was awesome, and I'm sort of doubting they'll ever be invited back to do that again.

fucking gnarly. totally wish i was there for that.

2000 people may have been out and about and near the show, looking in the direction of the show, and hearing some part of the show, but i don't think they can really claim that 2000 people were in attendance. nonetheless, paint it black destroys.

Ugh.

i was there, and the actual people there for paint it black was NOT 2000 people. when you have a free show in the middle of a crowded downtown area, you will attract a huge crowd no matter what. still cool times.
