Spin Doctors? c or d

^^Nice work if you can get it. They came through town not too long ago to do a theatre show w/Rick Springfield.

Just got a Collector's Choice catalog in the mail and guess what? Sony's putting out a 2-disc "20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition" of Pocketful....

naw... NAWW...

just re-listened to Two Princes on Youtube. Singer sounds like kinda Evan Dando. Never noticed that before. Not listening to any other SD songs to find out if he sounds like him elsewhere as well.

Two Princes is one of my guiltiest pleasures. I secretly think it's one of the best songs of the 90's.

There's a great Sarah Silverman episode where they discover that her gay friend who listens to tons of doom metal on his ipod actually only has one song on repeat-- "Two Princes."

Destroy, destroy, destroy. They were inescapable my freshman year of college and remind me of my tragic first apartment roommate, a hippie from PA who only listened to Spin Doctors and Blind Melon and thought being "a DICK" was the worst thing anyone could be, man.

Reading peoples' defenses of "Two Princes" really brings home to me how other people feel when I stan for "You Oughta Know."

lol I have a friend who is exactly this guy. Loads of doom metal on his ipod and suddenly you bump into random eurodance and corny hits from the 90s (e.g.: Two Princes, Paradisio's bailando, Real Mccoy's Another Night...).

Graham played Spin Doctors at us on Tuesday.

Lol at the "Two Princes" chords spelling D B(m) A G.

hahaha

classic

Marry him, or marry me

kinda love the guitar and drums on PFoK. whiney otm itt tho too many weird grating choices with his vocals.

my sleeper jam on here is Refrigerator Car which is m/l a Clutch song

I went to college with a guy who looked just like the singer (shaggy red hair, bushy beard, etc). People would always go up to him and say "Hey, what time is it?" He'd play along and say "Four thirtay," but I always secretly hoped he'd punch these people out.

Ha! I just remembered this guy, and now I'm listening to the first Spin Doctors album and I'm mad at myself.

I just realized that 430 is about being high

The My Dick version of 'Two Princes' really gets to the very heart of the track.

lol where art thou My Dick?

My stepmom told me I’d be a janitor [nothing wrong with that] and live in the basement of a school and play guitar for the rats.

I wrote a song about her. It’s called Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong.

It’s been played on the radio three million times.

Three million and one, and I heard it on the radio this weekend.

Was shocked and appalled to discover this week that there's a Two Princes sample in Orbital's Sad But True.

Lol flashback : roommate's crusty bf in college was a fan of these guys. Used to rock the yoga pants like the lead singer. Friggin' '90s, dude...

err...Dud.

that's what I say now!

When they were big -- I was like 11 or 12 -- I thought the singer and Alexi Lalas were the same person. I think they just melded in my mind as an archetypal "90s college kid," the kind of older guy who wore CO-ED NAKED t-shirts, played hacky sack, and practiced with devil sticks.

umm they actually are the same person

He's the Ess-dog, Sean if you wish

I knew it

Heard "Two Princes" last night for the first time in an eaon on ye' olde classic rock radio and had a major brain freeze moment not being able to remember the name of this band.

I racked my skull for nearly an hour trying to remember and it kept coming up Third Eye Blind or Seven Mary Three or Primitive Radio Gods- all I knew was wrong but that was what kept coming up out of the noggin. I could remember after a bit that the same band had a hit with "Little Miss Can't be Wrong" but the band name was lost.

I guess early senior moment...I of course had to check with the tech overlords when I pulled into the driveway at home last night.

That said, I was thinking that drum shuffle in "Two Princes" was pretty good and probably one reason it was a hit.

jesus christ, this must have been one of the first threads I ever started.

my brother saw these guys shortly before the pandemic at a hotel concert. he said it was pretty hilarious. but that everybody who went was allll about the singles. well, the two biggest ones at least. not the stuff like 'Turn It Upside Down".

naw... NAWW...

ahmawannaluvvabehbeh, can't u see

ahh spin doctor's i reminisce..

The brother of the singer and I were roommates in Brooklyn for a while back in the day. He was a hippie too though we had a mutual love of Black Sabbath. I remember hearing him in the shower singing "War Pigs."

My most notable Spin Doctors moment was seeing their EP record release show at Wetlands.

My most notable brother-of-the-singer-of-Spin Doctors was when we were shot at coming back from a White Castle run at 3 AM.

I got nothing against the band or the singer's brother. The guy who shot at us? A little.

1 2
Bullets come right toward you
That's what I said now

(lol Soz. Any reason you were shot at other than pure randomness?)

It was probably a mistaken Greil Marcus.

i don't really have many thoughts about spin doctors except that they did this pandemic remote performance that i enjoyed for some reason

....and since this posting i have learned that the bass player is now a hardline anit-vax guy and they fired him

I felt pretty cool back in the day knowing where shinbone alley is

xp: damn, the H.O.R.D.E. to alt-right pipeline continues.

pocket full of kryptonite was one of the first handful of cassettes i bought with my own money.

how could you want him is the best song on the album and i had no idea it had a video until today

this duder is playing the venue attached to the restaurant where i work TONIGHT
and i am working so I will get to peek in if I feel like it/we're not too busy

i saw Spin Doctors at an amusement part with Material Issue when I was in early high school and secretly thought they were pretty good even though I did not become a fan.

also COMPLETELY forgot about
what time is it?
4-thirtay

Plate of shrimp. Wapo columnist Alexandra Petri is a rather niche "Two Princes" parody gift link

*um, "has"

It's supposed to say "Spin Doctors and Puppet Show."

while we're issuing corrections:

amusement *park

Geauga Lake to be precise
