[meecrob122]

So... Much... Awesome

[guanaco103]

Is he supposed to sound like shit ?

[QuakeProductions]

@guanaco103 yes, that's the point.

[mulefa1]

@QuakeProductions lol

[OMFGBeholdMyAwesomez]

ATDI IS GETTING BACK TOGETHER.

[calypso99]

what I find pretty awesome is that ATDI is one of the top 3 headliners at Coachella. I dont think they ever knew how big they were or have been since they broke up. Glad they're back together. Its about time so meaningful rock lives in this world of corporate musicians. Rock on guys, 2012 is your year, make it shine.

[actsoftheunspeakable]

faggot music

[vakuola]

@actsoftheunspeakable Yeah brahhh, go listen to Burzum and play some more Warcraft. Best of luck.

[mulefa1]

@vakuola lol

[RhoBullet]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This time will be epic !!!!!!

[lash1989]

They are Back!!!!

[andrexnavarro]

por esto quería que volviera at the drive in #atdireunion

[DeficitAttentionProg]

At The Drive In have reunited!

They're back!

Amazing!

[blissfullydead89]

@DeficitAttentionProg I'm excited, but I also don't want to get my hopes up.

[LucidDream]

@DeficitAttentionProg In-fucking-deed. I'm so excited!

[u2m2i5n7abunnies]

love it how they're playing on the wiggles stage bahahahah

[sagefo]

Hahaha... I love this but I have no idea what the fuck Cedric is talking about at the beginning

[brunopcisco]

3:13 - I laughed SO HARD.

[aYellowDart]

@brunopcisco me too. cedric has microphone hijynx down to an artform

[TORCHaaron]

Never gets old!!! Cedric kills Omar's and Jim's mics hahaha!!!!!!

[starslight13]

Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bookrten]

Look, I am only 6, and i already know that my generation (the 2005-ers) have inherited the largest collection of terrible music in recent history. Why can't we go back to this kind of stuff? This is when everything sounded good.

[keniuro]

@Bookrten maybe 26, ok D: and then my generation 1985-ers

[SuBrainAche]

@Bookrten Look i am only 1, and I know that you are not 6

[everevebrisbane]

FUCK YEAH. BIG DAY OUT LOTS OF CHEMICALS AND MOSHING MY ASS OFF IN '01'

[jimmyjampola]

Wow, I noticed 2 things about this video for the first time. One: Dane (Drummer from Sunk Lotto) is watching from side stage and Two: The stage that ATD-I are playing on is from the Wiggles!

[IElrekkaI]

@jimmyjampola WIGGLES?! BRILLIANT

[PaulMercedes]

ummmmmm.....what???

[h535116]

宇宙飛行士

[TheStormPulse]

my favorite song ever!!



[TamedAnimals]

Omar is a genius.

[jogalofi]

WTF 3:10-3:13 !?

[NickB33]

@DopeDethrone Agreed. Well said.

[isoleamebuthappysoul]

@TMVowns It's fans like you that give us ATDI and TMV fans a bad name. Cedric & Omar didn't make ATDI. Omar wasn't even in the original lineup. He came along on AC. Cedric and Jim were the only members of the original members of the band left when they went on an indefinite hiatus in '01. However, Cedric was the only member of the band that stayed during the entire tenure of the band.  You were right on that. People give Cedric & Omar too much credit.

[Luizianaxxx]

@isoleamebuthappysoul Fuck, doesnt matter who started it, they are the band, you have no point... this is the best band ever, can't match it with no other, and they are the herat of it anyway...

[dradlok]

very messy. more nervousness, rather than noise, would be better. I liked the voice.

[moneenisonfire]

@doneverhesitate Are you high!?! Or maybe that's the problem, you're not. Cause Cedric's flips and moving around and knocking over EVERY mic stand make it that much better. I dare you to find a frontman from ANY other band that makes his shows THIS exciting and intense.

[EmaJack99]

strepitoso. 

[doneverhesitate]

I love ATDI, been a fan since the begining,.. but I think Cedric kinda ruins the song when he start jumping and doing all the flips,... cause i like his voice,... but its hard to apreciatte when he do that...

[BxMxTxH15]

WOW!

[TheMadjive]

best show performance ever

[DEADSHADOW777]

soooo good



[applecrumping33]

its such a refined complex improvisational style with influences from intricate scales and timings in jazz, and a multitude of music from around the world, and past genres/movements.

[stratocaster1986able]

I cannot, cannot,cannot,cannot,cannot,ca­nnot tell you how much I love this song. Woops, geuss I just did.

[keitaro21]

The best performance in the world !

[SecondMuffin]

I don't usually pay attention to the whole video since I play ATDI for any occasion but now that I have, just, wow. Did Cedric really need to yell at Omar's shirt?

[canesrule96]

does omar like leave mentally when they play? I'm surprised he knows which song they're playing

[Vonlippington]

does that stage say 'the wiggles'  LOL hahah wtf

[garygnars]

Those were the days...

[uncrules]

@TMVowns: That's not what the song "Ticklish" says to me.

[bhizel87]

Fucking intense.



[jamescapsul]

lol bassist

[TMVowns]

obviously omar and cedric made atdi.

[tehjoshomg]

Cedric's energy is insane. The well he draws from is so much deeper than mine, at least.

[AtTheDriveInFAN]

i would've killed to see them live. It saddens me.

[PhunkCDXX]

ATDI kills!!!!

[demoncleaner45]

I've listened to ATDI and MV for the last 8 years. I still can't figure out if Omar is a freakin genius or the worst guitar player in the world.

[93Bigbrown]

@demoncleaner45 he is a genius

[keitaro21]

@demoncleaner45 He is obviously a genius, even if sometimes he is hard to follow, but no one else can do what he does. He's just the most creative guitariste since a long time

[snehesten]

@demoncleaner45 He said that he hates the guitar, and tries to make it sound like something else. I guess his visual profile was too important for the success of the band, so he had to give up the bass

[lxm7]

@snehesten yeah apparently he wasn't comfortable playing the guitar only up unitl the last few years with mars volta, he turned to guitar from bass to get out the energy that was inside of him, the bass wouldnt convey the dynamics. ,am theres so many ways to utilise all these tools we have to express of how are , how we feel, this why these guys are soooo good. very important too. Its not even any genre, it just unintentionally has vague recollections of popular music holding its elements to...

[lxm7]

@snehesten ...gether , barely comprehensible to a wider audience on first listen until you blow the cobwebs of societal norms of music and popular culture. its the energy and urgency that delivers!! but thats in accordance with ...this, them.

[callienking1]

@demoncleaner45 By your definition, a genius.

[mmcolony]

@demoncleaner45 it's easier to play tight and make it sound good than it is to play sloppy and make it sound good. so...freakin genius for sure.

[joeyelmer1]

@demoncleaner45 i would like to say genius. ive played guitar for eight years and i couldnt come up with that

[ElAitor04]

@demoncleaner45 A freaking genius



[gl0riapie]

3:07 onward is a freaking orgasm

[TheTvrulesthenation]

0:09 WEEEE

Look up at the middle front of the crowd :P

[seniorclapshishands]

44 people are supposed to die alone

[MrChonnyChimole]

HI this is hardcore love it or dont.

[kahleox]

@ScottBeoWolfBlitzer dude... get your facts straight, he didn't go crazy with drugs until TMV hit the roof. He had so much energy in atdi and he wanted to show it through is music... in a sense, drugs only slow cedric down.

[FlyingFuckstorm]

Wait, wait. Cedric used to be GOOD live? I've only listened to TMV.

Fuck. Omar has improved tenfold and Cedric just took a nosedive after ATDI.

[computervidsfromme]

@FlyingFuckstorm

What are you talking about man? Mars Volta stuff is pretty fucking hard to sing actually. Harder to do.

[FlyingFuckstorm]

@computervidsfromme Yeah, but Cedric's live performances are unacceptable in TMV. Gets out of breath so fucking quickly, can't hit the high notes etc.

[OHollowTimes]

@FlyingFuckstorm Just looking at all your comments. You're a persistent turd. Wash yourself down and become something new. You're fucking terrible.

[computervidsfromme]

@FlyingFuckstorm Yeah, if your talking about the earlier performances. Look at the more recent work by him, you'll see much improvement.

[AwayinSpace]

@FlyingFuckstorm just stop, you are making a fool of yourself to hundrends of people.

[FlyingFuckstorm]

@AwayinSpace I don't understand you rabid fans. I absolutely adore The Mars Volta, but Cedric cannot keep up half the time. He's always out of breath or missing the high notes.

[ReggaeMusic3]

@FlyingFuckstorm seen them live 3 times. flawless! are you a musician? skin flautist?

[AwayinSpace]

@FlyingFuckstorm I'm not a "rabid fan" I just understand the beauty and imperfection that is music.

[xoxopossumgirl]

I wish I was born ten years earlier so I could have seen these guy's live.

[GuimoXoX]

3:03 =000000000

[ninojaquez]

No jay reatard is way better.

[MsNatakins]

fuck the mars volta. get back together atdi. ..the world needs you.

[Lullaby111111]

drugs <3

[LeviAAA]

Guy Picciotto, without the drugs.....

[alsatiancousin1]

I love how Cedric puts his microphone through Omars shirt at 03:13 and screams through them both. thats really innovative. dont think Ive ever seen anyone do that one before..

[ScottBeoWolfBlitzer]

@alsatiancousin1 I'm not sure it was him being innovative as much as it was him being on drugs.

[443556jack]

MENTAL! LOVE IT!

[onlyeyesabove]

DONT LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT MIC STAND, FUCK YOUU!!! GET OFF MY STAGE !!

[TheInvisibleCollege]

@onlyeyesabove He's like, "What the fuck is this thing doing here/ Could you take this?"

[Julipapa]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[chillplayin11]

and they dont us to mosh. how can you not. you jus wanna go CRAZAY

[ecscottindiana]

skinny jeans before they were a thing. Ahead of their time in all things.

[NotYourTube0]

@ecscottindiana skinny jeans have been a 'thing' for a lot longer. IE mid 60's Dylan, or 77' era UK punk

[BondedBlood]

Damn look at 3:02 cedric looks fucking cracked out

[RedPlanetDriveIn]

@BondedBlood You mean heroin-ed out? Haha.

[BondedBlood]

@RedPlanetDriveIn yeah they probably were on heroin right there...i mean they pretty much did everything heroin, opium, acid all that shit

[ModularNick]

@BondedBlood No one can dance that fast on heroin....

[BondedBlood]

@ModularNick i dont know opium or ecstacy

[ANTIanitmetalclub]

1:11 was fucking BEEEEAST.

[LazyNoJutsu]

I sort of wish they kept going. They were about to go into Lopsided, which would have been awesome. Then again, this performance wouldn't have been as legendary if he didn't walk off because of the moshers.

Fun fact, someone actually died later this day because of all of the moshing. The crowd should have listened to Cedric and Jim. :)

[fattyJNL]

2/53 of people are douche bags.

[drewhadou]

wasn't this the show where they left half way through the set because the crowd was moshing and being assholes?

[stickslinger]

they really need to invest in wireless instruments and mics

[may301985]

I LOVE ATDI FUCK MARS VOLTA Sparta is ok

[maskedcrusader]

@may301985 Wha? Sparta's awesome

[pageseventyfive]

No one can even come close to matching their intensity and energy. The fact that it comes across on a youtube video kind of proves that. It makes me want to throw my computer through a window and break everything.

[crimeneverstops]

@pageseventyfive i have. and it's a hip hop group.. look up odd future wolf gang - sandwitches live. they're getting pretty big now.

[JGill93]

@crimeneverstops Yeah, them on that jimmy kimmel show was nuts

[crimeneverstops]

@JGill93 jimmy kimmel? they performed there?

[JGill93]

@crimeneverstops I'm pretty sure they did. Could be wrong.

[crimeneverstops]

@JGill93 no dude; umm it's Jimmy Fallon. not kimmel.

yeah

[JGill93]

@crimeneverstops it was a jimmy.. close enough haha

[Vonlippington]

@pageseventyfive

not as good i guess but, try this one from Dillinger for the start of the song haha

DEP virgin megastore 2005, on youtube

[thecanks]

@pageseventyfive Shit! meant to vote up, not down. fingers where so excited while watching this I clicke the wrong thumb:(

[titass420]

YEAH Bowie reference!!!

[jasonnnf]

wow.. Cedric is a fucking artist

[whitelightmusic]

The ones that are not enjoying this, have no idea what those five men are doing on the stage !!!

[MrCotopaxi]

day number 33,all this culture clash as gettin to me now:D

[Pretsal]

Why is there nothing like this anymore....? The universe is so unfair.

[CoMiN08]

@Pretsal Check out 'And So I Watch You From Afar' Not the same but you will like!

[eedsitty]

Some people just have a cool voice and don't even have to try.

[IAChoquette311]

My daughter was sitting on my lap watching this with me and she kept saying "WIGGLES"... I had no idea what the fuck she was talking about. O and she was watching this because I had to give her an example of why drugs were bad... unless used properly. No seriously, don't do drugs kids.

[deathbat411]

@IAChoquette311 the stage says wiggles or something towards the front. or something maybe she was confusing for wiggles 

[csmonkey42]

@IAChoquette311 Yeah, the Wiggles (children's music group, you should know) logo is on the stage

I guess they played at BDO, or used the stage at some point before ATDI

[kidamathias]

@csmonkey42 hahaha thats hilarious!

[stix4u77]

what is that that cedric uses to modified his voice??

[jasonnnf]

@stix4u77 it must be some sort of delay

[thepenmanship]

Acoustic cover -- infullfeather.bandcamp.com/tra­ck/cosmonaut

[boneski88]

@thepenmanship the guitar is so nice in your cover



[thepenmanship]

@boneski88 aww thanks man. had some horrible recording conditions to work with, plus a nasty case of bronchitis, oh well, it was fun. thanks for listening.

[sirscreamalot80]

if you dig this, go check out "this love feels like a heart attack" or "dial b for bewilderment" by pack of wolves from austria. they're awesome, too!

[BdrfeelgoodS]

@sirscreamalot80 the fact they wrote a song called "this loves feels like a heart attack" makes them gay.

[BdrfeelgoodS]

@sirscreamalot80 the fact they wrote a song called "this love feels like a heart attack" makes them fags.

[Nicklasson]

Very familiar to Ratms singer imo :o

Great

[TheeFinchLynch]

This song and this album are endlessly amazing. Something i will be listening to when I'm 80 and can't remember my own family.

[Mcmotherfuckingrory]

@TheeFinchLynch

HAHHAHA Excellent :3

[canibaldance]

is it heavier than air?

[afab232]

i love when he sticks the mic in omar's shirt hahhh

[jackjackass123]

[Qualle8]

[christopherrobbins0]

[aburridoyfurioso]

Powerful and beautyful true rock.

[lapoiarecords]

In this show, the mars volta born

[jimtalife365]

[sunshineplexus]

This is the best Fucking song. Classic.....

[laxwarrior64]

#LOL the water bottle at 3:50

[izzelf]

Its sad what is allowed to pass as music these days. Complete and utter shit. whats really bad is this crap was concidered good enough to put on guitar hero. They must be getting desperate for music.

[thesmokingdrummer]

@izzelf seriously? where's your sense of passion or energy?

[Thelambe123]

@izzelf I like how you go around every ATDI video and post the same comment. Don't you just feel so amazing being a troll?

[warwick5string]

@izzelf half the music on guitar hero is shit anyway you dumb mother fucker that or its just the bands most popular catchy song not their true art.

[muddwell]

@izzelf dude, stop spamming their videos. you dont like em. cool. fuck off. i dont like alot of shit on youtube, therefore i dont watch it.

[surfspecz1]

@izzelf Your mentioning of Guitar Hero constitutes an utter flame war, but it is not my place to begin one. You really lowered yourself into a despicable rung of society by displaying your quite ignorant musical opinions, which are based off of something so sad that I'm not even going to type it again. Please get a lobotomy.

[fiveyearss]

We are the leeches that stop the bleeding!!!

[laxwarrior64]

more impressive than hitler's kill/death ratio

[TheHarlowDefense]

fuck.

this is amazing but it's lame how low they have Jim's vox turned down, where you can see him yelling but hear nothing.

[Flow16380]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!

[codepriest]

so much power, so much emotion. damn I miss those guys. not seeing them anymore makes me cry
