Watch Spiral Stairs Play Pavement With Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks At His 50th Birthday Event

Pavement guitarist Scott Kannberg, also known as Spiral Stairs, celebrated his 50th birthday in August. This weekend, to mark the occasion, he’s holding a two-day birthday celebration at San Francisco’s The Chapel, and he enlisted Dirty Ghosts, a Roxy Music cover band called For Your Pleasure, and New Zealand act the Clean to play the event. But after the Clean had to back out due to a family emergency, Pavement cofounder Stephen Malkmus and his new group the Jicks stepped up as replacements, turning the bash into a little mini Pavement reunion. Watch Spiral Stairs play Pavement songs like “Summer Babe” and “Date With Ikea” with Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks below.
