Well well… if it ain’t those lilly-livered Live from Stadium Drive-rs back to their tricks—this time with a song?!
That’s right, LFSD has gone audio—well, visual, too, technically, since this does give listeners some nice pictures to look at—with our newly expanded, professionally recorded tailgate tune “Gutekunst!”
The track honors Pack architect Brian Willis Gutekunst. Yes, we only learned his middle name while we were trying to come up with things for me to yell during the chorus. But we could never hog such sweet info, nor contain our admiration for Big Bri/Lil’ Gutey.
Join us for our humble submission to the illustrious canon of Packer songs through the years. Growing up in GB, stuff like this would legitimately be played on local mainstream radio stations. Gosh darnit, it ain’t high art, but it sure was our culture, and it needed a new entry—been too long since that “Donald Driver”/”Holy Diver” song was on the airwaves. Though one of my absolute favorites is just two years old: the Eddy J. Lemberger (of “I Love My Green Bay Packers” fame) absolute masterpiece “This World of Green and Gold”.
To the tune of the Rascals’ “Good Lovin'”, here it is, from straight down Lombardi Avenue, “Gutekunst!”
You may recall the tune from our most recent/not-recent-at-all episode — New LFSD: Packers Bye Week Variety Special — where we debuted a delightful, truncated, acoustic version of it. The time was right to hit the studio with the boys (to whit, Tommy Burns, Tyson Kratz, Alex Drossart, Sam Farrell, Ryan Seefeldt and yours Gute-ly) and make it suitable for tailgate playlists.
Enjoy! Go Pack!

PS. The song’s also now streaming on Spotify to really class up your tailgate playlists!
