Dan Deacon "Snake Mistakes"

[elvisbordello]

woooooooooooow! great performance!

[spanningtime]

YEAH GUYS. he prefers you stand blank-faced analyzing the lyrics and feeling the notes with your mind, not your body.. comforts him to see some True Music-lovers present

[nepalnt21]

whats so good about dancing at a concert? whatever happened to listening to the music?

[artmaxis]

he's surrounded by...ZOMBIE'S!!!

[rockstarkid5678]

drinking out of cups is better tis guys music was specifically made for ppl who take cough meds insted of acid

[gnosti]

This video makes me ashamed that I even live in the same state as Denton.... You UNT kids need to GET OFF THE PROZAC AND DANCE LIKE A MAD MAN!!!!!!

[nepalnt21]

@gnosti why?

[gnosti]

This seriously makes me ashamed that I even live close to Denton. Fucking UNT hippie pieces of shit.GET OFF THE PROZAC AND LEARN TO DANCE LIKE A MAD MAN !!!!

[aapplleejacks]

ya seriously if you were at this show, in this crowd...FUCK YOU. show dan some respect and dance ur fuckin ass off!!

[MorroWolf]

good shit bro

[antiwowwy]

I saw him last night, he was amazing

[Robeatem]

this shit...amazing

[coasterfreak666]

i hate them bees

[liberationate]

so freaking great! what an amazing performer - this video makes me appreciate his music that much more. Live vocoding + lighting effects + live EQ effects management = quite difficult

[GiorgiKhaburzania]

Dan Deacon is so unappreciated. He deserves more notice and critical acclaim.

[thelimesmusic]

but remember that these things like shows and stuff have that unique atmosphere just because of that there's not SO many people and those who ARE there are just the right people to create it.. if you know what I mean.. :)

[EdBrew51]

I think he has the critical acclaim. But people doesn't know who the fuck he is.

Unfortunately.

[echeesekid]

what a terrible crowd

[pistolaeyes]

tripppy

[095151008]

bby

HAYyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I just saw ur video!!! msg me on M.S.N kU

[bigdt87]

this crowd fucking sucks, jesus, remind me to never go to Denton.

[andersfriden2000]

this is fucking greatttttttttttttttttttttttttt­ttttttttt

[flanissimo]

that beat reminds me of the MY LIFE IN THE BUSH OF GHOSTS song, "America is Waiting".

But Diff. Both grand in Diff. ways.

Drinking outta cups is best thing ever made ever.

[sapphirerose666]

i love you man!

[Nancytuanh]

Insaaane

[fgsfdsmonkey]

This is crystal cat are my favorites

[aesrp]

lol these people are just sitting there smoking like morons, fucking DANCE!

[shiftymonster]

would you dance sir?

[colorsinscenes]

i was at this show...its was in denton, tx. the headliner was ADULT. so most of the people there had no idea who dan was...he played real well but it just took a while before the crowd warmed up to him.

[aesrp]

ummm probably, if i was there with people I knew that liked him also, he's good... but I didn't know people here didn't know about him so my mistake. sorry about the morons thing

[saffgraff]

"My dad is so cool, he is the coolest dad in dad school.

He does not break any dad rules.

He will pick you up if I asked him to."

Yeessss.

[aesrp]

My dad is so cool, he is the coolest dad and that's cool he does not break any dad rules he will pick you up if I ask him to :)

[saffgraff]

I was close! Hah.

[aesrp]

bah idnm i love that part anyways haha.! :D sounds awesome

[RamzGT]

I love you guys

[emodave138]

everytime I see him he never plays this song. It makes me sad

[SpaceJamEnthusiast]

this seems like a really shitty crowd... saw him last night and it was insane

[HeatSeQ]

fuckin rockin on that shit right there!

[zenethaleir]

ye i seen him live and even took part in a dance off he started lol! hes awesome, really gets everyone involved and having fun

[Jamesmiovino]

I Agree with 42ADENT below me

[42ADENT]

i want dan and fat boy slim to work together , could be wonderful ?

[dogatron]

that was rad. The bellends just standing still deserve ass herpes for thinking they're too cool to dance.

[lanabobana3]

amen.

[dylanzeth]

Uh.. that's me in the white shirt. As great as this show was, there just wasn't a dance vibe.

[AKCrowley]

does your ass itch now?

[andersfriden2000]

aguante dan deacon, carajoooo

[rgbflawed]

Woah! That was awesome!

[ChaseKittens]

He has a vocoder and a pitch shifter he runs his voice through. He alternates with them here.

[duckmonsterX]

Man. I wish Dan would come to australia.

[redshine4]

STAVE!!!! Absolutely STAVE!!!!!

[bvllets]

Dan Deacon is teh bast!

[Kompressor0660]

When the song switches to the "My dad" chorus, it fucking blew me away

[wavecal22]

yeah seriously! Damn! Vocoding with that crazy reverb! Holy crap that's a lot of work at once! Go Dan!

[eoinmacnamara]

Thats not a vocoder

[wavecal22]

what are you talking about?

I'm talking about the 'robot' voice, which is actually his voice run through a vocoder which combines it with the keyboard he's playing. Check out how he never does the robot voice without playing the piano.

[TeamS811]

so cool

[t0rment2004]

How does Dan switch so fast from vocoder to normal pitch to high pitch? It's not like he has three microphones up there.

[Kompressor0660]

He probably has presets on the vocoder that he can change with the press of a button, much like changing the patch on a synth

[officaldandeacon]

there are two mics. one for effects, one for vocoder. the effects mic can switch from effected to clean easily

[Toojdwin]

Me.

[emodave138]

this video is perfect in every way. Thank you.

[missilesmith]

I asked Dan why he has his IPOD shuffle attached to a banana. He answered, "so I don't lose it". Makes sense to me!

[mayanwarrior66]

this sounds like a snake's mistake...on a plane.

[fel7000]

i make too many snake mistakes

[dylanzeth]

Heh, that's me and my girl right behind Dan on his left.

[0000009888]

JAJA

[limpviscid]

Wow, those guys watching don't look into it at all.

[gittty]

I mean how many of us here have made snake mistakes.
