1 They need to release the whole show 2 I think every me first album should be live from now on.

The Bar Mitzvah is actually real it was not fake. I give the kid probably being the coolest kid in the world for wanting them and convincing his parents to play them. If I remember correctly the bar mitzvah album is what really generated so much press for them and turned them mainstream for even though they are obviously not mainstream.

All jokes aside, the mix and the performance on this album are incredible. It is so insanely hard to put out a great sounding live album where the music sounds as present and perfectly mixed as it does coming from a studio. In this album's case, the mix is almost better than most studio albums. This whole album is full of gems because of the mix - Spike screaming off mic at parts, both guitars playing beautifully at the same time, one rhythm, one solo. The pick slides are incredible, you hear every single one of them. The drums sounds incredible. Spike's voice is almost flawless the entire album. And the music just straight up fucking RIPS the entire album. One of the best produced live albums I've ever heard. Rebelution's Live at Red Rocks runs a very close second.

one of my favorite albums by any band ever great stuff

That has to be the first Bar Mitzvah that had a mosh pit in the history of Judaism

I want them for my son's first communion party. God bless!

I wish they'd ruin my Bar Mitzvah, but I'm 30....and Christian.

I have watched this and listened to this album so many times I know what will be said and done at all points but still can't stop watching this

This puts a big smile on my face. I love celebrations of Jewish culture. I wish I could have a bar mitzvah so I could ask Me First to play. You guys are awesome. I love your version of Hava Nagila.

I love how he stands when he sings!

This CD made me laugh like you wouldn't believe.

How the hell wasn't I aware there was actual footage of this?!? WHERE'S THE REST?

I'm 32, i've a beautiful wife and little daughter. I'm thinking 'bout marriage, but only with ME FIRST .... :) I would die for this ! GOD I LOVE U GUYS

Ragazzi vi amo dal profondo del cuore! Sono stata ieri al vostro concerto a Pinarella di Cervia ed è stato il più bello della mia vita!

this is honestly the funniest shit i've ever seen.

I was young and innocent! I didnt know why it was so special lol.... and his (jonny's dad) was like some recording studio dude or something and got them to play

Love love love this band.

This is awesome!!

And definitely the best album title of all time!

the best band of cover in the world.

I bought Hava Nagila on iTunes, So glad I found the video.

no way dude, they look like they're having an awesome time! best bar mitzvah ever, almost makes me wish i was jewish :D

In fact, they don't really ruin Jonny's Bar Mitszah, cause the assistance is dancing and laughing and looking like having a good time ! As me !

I love opera and Punk music...So this was Awesome

Nice job ! Love this band.

What a cool family party, I wish be invited to one of this and drink a good and expensive red wine.

johnny's barmitzvah was the fuckin shit!!!!!!

A Misfits t shirt during a barmitzva party XD

This is totally one of my favorite cd's

greatest cover band ever

I wish they would ruin my Bar Mitzvah! Except I'm not Jewish. And I'm 30.

I love this band. I can't wait for them to get around the Chicago area so I can see them live.

This whole video just makes me so happy.

3:10 kid has the best dance movements

I like how they stuck the riff from Offspring's Come Out and Play in there. XD

That kid better be laughing his ass off or mortified that he invited a punk band to his bar mitzvah.

wish I could see the whole album on video... they must've taped the whole thing. It only gets better the more they drink! :-)

holy shit his voice is amazing

3:48 Someone get help. Grandma's in the mosh pit lol

Ahead of their time. I remember when this came out. One of my fave bands. Groundbreaking, honestly.

awesome vid! awesome cd! gimme gimmes rock!!!

Best Bar Mitzvah EVER!!

All this is so freaking crazy!!!!!!!!!!! So damn good and still I’m Italian!!!

Dude, can you post the rest of this pls?

The ones that look really mad during "O Sole Mio"--they're the Italian side of the family! Right after this, on the CD, they play "Havah Nagilah" again, only to Jose Feliciano's Xmas tune "Feliz Navidad". THAT'S when the bottles and dishes started flying, LOL! Seriously, I really like MFATGG and the way they play this old stuff--it rocks, and it's a parody too. Not TOO respectful, but not negative, either. Best cover band ever? Greetings from northwest Pennsylvania, USA. :)

Very cool. I kinda figured a lot of the kids who didn't care much for the performance at the time would end up being fans later on, and wishing they'd savored the moment more. At least the whole thing was recorded.

These guys are great!! Thanks iTunes for suggesting these guys because I love Richard Cheese albums.

.execellent. ...on so many levels. ...for performance & reception.

best... cover band... EVER!!!

thats awesome how they riff on the offspring then right when it gets to the vocals they break back into hava nagila. makes me laugh every time!

Still gold.

absolutley AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! enough said just amazing haha!!!!!!!

It's actually plexiglass. Commonly used to isolate loud drums in a live setting. Especially effective for keeping cymbals from bleeding into the vocal mikes.

i've been a fan of me first for bouts a decade now. gotta say - when this album came out it was bittersweet. There were some songs on it i really loved, but there were other points that sounded like they had been rehearsed close to never. this vid was fun though

hava nagila(last song) rocks really hard^^

Che bella cosa!

Yes : Composition : * Singer : Spike Slawson (bass of Swingin' Utters) * Guitar : Joey Cape (singer of Lagwagon) * Guitar : Chris Shiflett (guitar of Foo Fighters, ex-No Use For A Name) * Basse : Fat Mike (singer and bass of NOFX) * Drums : Dave Raun (drums of Lagwagon)

These guys r just awesome crazy

Hava nagila brought down the house. Fat mike seemed surprised and impressed that he actually knew the lyrics

I like how they didnt get it till the second song

I wonder what spinning-kicky-leg kid is up to now haha

This is actually hilarious

We don't car what the people say, rock'n roll here is to stay !

Man I'd convert to have them play mine. Of course I'm 47.

they are adorable !! xxxoooxxxx

Theres video of this?!!??!!! IS THERE MORE????

Spike sings the Hebrew words quite good

Nothing like some public domain punk 😎

just wonderful :D

love when they break into come out and play

Damn This Kid Had A Great Party...

@Rudeboysaint The son of some guy that works in the music industry (I forget where). He asked for the Gimmie Gimmies to play at his Bar Mitzvah and this is what happened

really really good band!!!

I'm just in awe that someone hired the Gimmes for a Bar Mitzvah... and they PLAYED IT!!! fucking genius! :-)

Take the raddest musicians from a bunch of dope punk bands and have them play ironic songs together in a wholly un-ironic way. Genius. Can Spike sing? Yes. Yes he can.

nice The Offspring part

you sound very cool!

There's a girl with a misfits shirt at 6:27

This and Larry David makes the entire Jewish faith completely worth it.

5:31 Come Out to Play ♫

Ole Langs Eine is amazing!

5:50 MISFITS shirt, YEEAH!!

So I'm listening to the disk for the first time and after a few songs pause it find them on KZfaq. The video starts and scares the crap out of me cause its just seconds from when i listened to it on the disk. Same song and everything. Total coincidence but still really creepy! Me First and the Gimme Gimmes are awesome!

After watching this a billion times, I was disappointed noticing that at 3:38 Fat Mike is not doing the Backing Vocals. I always thought that this was the real audio recording of that day.. This let me down =(

drums project a lot of sound outward...the glass screen is used in small venues to keep the drums from overpowering the whole room

sensationell!!!!!!

4:44 - Jewish crowd surfing FTW!

geilstes video

kkk... a love it.... the old man shake the head...so funny

I would love to be drunk there and ask them to play "THE BREWS"

great vid

Joey Cape (Lagwagon) and Chris Shiflett (Foo Fighters)

probably not to interfear with the other microphones. The stage is quite small and the glass wall is there to isolate the sound a bit. That would be my gues...

so damn awesome

i can not stop laughing.

4:32 I like this style! Jude - habe mich wie Abraham, selbst beschneiden lassen !

Yeah it was. These guys fuckin' rock.

I love this :)

Hell, it took you long enough to reply. I was just in one of those obnoxious moods that day...hahahaha. They are great, aren't they?

Hey, the singer's italian (or better: neapoletan) pronunciation is great... next tour in Italy?
