Deerhoof Live at Melkweg - Performance Highlights and Monologues
Venue: Melkweg Oude Zaal
Location: Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands
Date: February 21, 2015
In February 2015, Deerhoof was riding high on the waves of their album 'La Isla Bonita,' released just a year prior, in 2014. This live recording at the Melkweg in Amsterdam spotlights the band's unique blend of experimental pop and punk energy. During the performance, you can catch the first of Greg Saunier's legendary Melkweg monologues, adding his signature whimsical charm to the show. At this point in their career, Deerhoof had also cemented a reputation for their eclectic live performances, with Saunier's charisma and improvisational style keeping fans entranced. This period was significant as they were constantly pushing boundaries both in the studio and on stage, making every live set a true celebration of their inventive spirit.
