I wish Mickey had stayed away for good. Bill is so fucking good on his own.

yes but they're way too mellow to be rock. even their psych rock era doesn't have that much energy

they were probably the best live band in history. it's remarkable that most of their gigs are available for free online, that's what got me into them.

their albums are mediocre though. songs like Scarlet Begonias and Fire on the Mountain shine on live performances -- not so much on their albums.
