Hardest button to button but I have a very soft spot for little acorns, I’m a squirrel girl 😂

Ball and Biscuit for me. Those solos are just 🔥🔥🔥

Aside from the obvious, Black Math rocks hard!!

That’s a hard one, but I’m going with the sleeper “The Air Near My Fingers”.

Ball and Biscuit. That guitar solo gets you every time!

Hard to choose a favorite but I always say that Black Math is a very under appreciated

THE AIR NEAR MY FINGERS, in fact, i think si The Best White Stripes song ❤️❤️❤️

Girl,You Have No Faith In Medicine. My go to, bounce around like a madwoman song. And brilliant lyrics.

The Air Near My Fingers is forever in a loop in my brain. Big soft spot for I Just Dont Know What To Do With Myself, going with those two

Ball and Biscuit, baby

I want to be the boy to warm your mothers heart 🥰

Little acorns had the most quoted lines between me and my father growing up. It’s my first album I know every single track by heart. Also. Acetaminophen youcetamenophin is one of the best lines of lyrical prowess I quote Almost daily as well.

I always repeat thrice "I want to be the boy that warms your mother's heart" so that would be it. But the whole album is a masterpiece

I agree, it's very difficult to answer... *Ball and Biscuit* And hauntingly beautiful dedication. ❤️

Ball and a Biscuit but the whole album is good.

There's no home for you here. It's just perfect.

In the cold, cold night

They're all great, but I'd have to pick "The Hardest Button to Button" as my current favorite.

In the cold cold night ... But I love all of the songs on this album.

The whole album is my favorite

Ball and Biscuit… my favorite song ever!!

That whole album is great!!! If I had to pick one though... gotta be Black Math.

Ball and Biscuit and Hypnotize are my absolute favorites!

Ball and Biscuit The Air Near my Fingers

The hardest button…

“This show takes place during the underrated New Zealand-Australia leg of the Elephant tour. Many of the surprises here are subtle. Listen as Jack moves to the keyboards for the first verse of Dead Leaves, or how I Want To Be the Boy To Warm Your Mother’s Heart gets an extended outro in place of the final verse. Other surprises are more obvious, such as Death Letter getting stretched out to over 10 minutes, including a unique rapid-fire delivery of Motherless Children, […] before wrapping with a quote from Little Bird. The same songs already played many times on the tour, done just a little different here.” -Long-time Stripes enthusiast and expert Mike.

Adelaide show was incredible! It was a mind blowing experience to witness. Up there with some of the best Live shows I’ve been to in my life

Just to make this public, i witnessed Meg in Zagreb Croatia 2008. she was in different dimension on those drums. small part of her made me man who i am today. enough said. best regards, Marko

This was my first concert, I was 13 :)

And we can’t use nugs in Australia, I was at the gig though

Jack was in another dimension for this show….. 😎🫡🫠

Rhys James worth a listen

Please, please put up the Wellington show! ❤️🖤🤍❤️

Reform pls ❣️

Sara Sabbagh 👀

Please Please Please make this available to purchase without using Nugs.net. I want to purchase more shows without having to be part of nugs.net. Thank you for the considerations.

to be born in another time,
any era but our own would’ve been fine.
100 years from now,
1000 years from now,
some other distant, different, time.
one without demons, cowards and vampires out for blood
one with the positive inspiration to foster what is good.
an empty field where no tall red poppies are cut down
where we could lay all day, every day, on the warm and subtle ground,
and know just what to say and what to play to conjure our own sounds.
and be one with the others all around us,
and even still the ones who came before
and help ourselves to all their love,
and pass it on again once more.
to have bliss upon bliss upon bliss
to be without fear, negativity or pain,
and to get up every morning, and be happy to do it all again.
