[dupencja]

Perfect...

[HPEJuggalo93]

i normally really like this song but christ his singing is just annoying as fuck live...

[only1smally]

Mike bordin hits heavy on this song! Same on the album

[knenda1]

one of the best bands from nineties ,after 20 years i still love it !

[tomahawkbungle]

my head is like lettuce

[zeppelinman4232]

@tomahawkbungle go on, dig your thumbs in.

[RussX5Z]

Ha ha wow Mike looks like he's going to a job interview. Great performance here always original.

[ArcadePerfect]

My whole fncking life has been a midlife crisis.

I.E.

Not fun...

:d*

[zigzagbigbag]

This is by far their best performance on youtube of this song. I've watched them all.

[77Myszka]

Amazing!

[Vanillier1]

Mike Patton is absolutely charming..I

[RomaVictor73]

The dummer looks like the guy in Deadliest Catch. The son to that man who died!

[Hena269]

patton <3

[TheMadjive]

somebody knows where to find the entire show ?

[fosjutub]

or maybe giovanni ribisi xD

[fosjutub]

singer keeps reminding me of johnny depp :D:D

[ksperfriendlyghost]

you gotta love 2:18 when Mike Bordin break the drum stick,throw it away and takes another in 1 sec

[DumbAssWiper]

For a hilarious bit of comedy, check out this rendition: /watch?v=NVenWioOJms&feature=m­fu_in_order&list=UL

[TheMadjive]

it's perfect yes it's true !

[izak1992]

GODD!! IT LOVE THE DRUMS!!!

[bigdaddy496]

good band, wish they were still around with their better lineup

[peterne999999999]

I got a boner from this.

[tMonation]

gta san andreas

[caiofernandes92]

2:17 the drummer broke drumstick

[izak1992]

@caiofernandes92 WOWWW!! WTF?!!?

[endpointithaca]

make that ninteen twenneh fourzzz

[martinbarclay103]

back when Mike Patton was nuts on stage. cool.

[LewisTheTool]

@martinbarclay103 pattons still got it, when i saw him last year he did a front flip into the crowd, and managed to keep singing, not many ppl do that in their 40's

[jlToolfan]

odd that they didn't play the post-chorus

[Astreator]

HELL THE FOCK YEA. DRUMS ARE ABOUT TO EXPLODE.

[Duman328]

the 90s is the best time and gta san andreas for ever

[phsychomonkey]

0:57

[Tmanvolfan]

Lol@ dude in the crowd in the beginning with the Maynard haircut....

[unfa00]

What is the guitarist doing at 0:40? What is he holding in his left hand?

[themodernguitarist]

@unfa00

Its an eBow. It gives the string your hovering it over infinite sustain until its removed from the string or until the battery dies.

Could get the same effect with a Sustainiac or Fernandes Sustainer pickup, but they're installed directly into the guitar and cost 3x as much as an ebow.

[unfa00]

@themodernguitarist Thank you for your answer :)

[langflug123]

gta san andreas brought me here

[TheFlipcesar]

I think that "Midlife Crisis" is Mike's favourite song to perform.

Midlife Crisis = Faith no More's best song ever

[ArtificialSmile]

LOL @ 2:18

[thomas91360]

poor mike is are so old :(

[zigzagbigbag]

Hey it Ass Napkin Ed singing.

[boygalak]

yeah fuck disturbed and other bands that copied mike patton

[boygalak]

@pascaletje9 you sound like a kid , you know nothing about fnm go home and ask your mom who mike patton is

[BruceMac9]

What is in his hand at 0:40 ? Some kind of guitar pick thing? Never seen anything like it before.

[Caboz2]

@BruceMac9 Ebow ;)

[Bryanation]

@BruceMac9 It's an ebow I believe.

[cassino761]

am I the only one hearing the wailing sirens of "the Real Thing" at the very last second ? god, must have been great if they've played it one after the other

[tajjtcw]

@cassino761 No, They played The Gentle Art of Making enemies next. It is on Youtube and you can hear it at the beginning.

[huey148]

are those riot batons that Mike uses for drum sticks?

[thesugarbuzzproject]

@MELIKESGUITAR That would be a nifty device called an e-bow. Basically, an electromagnet that just vibrates the string ad nauseum. :)

[MELIKESGUITAR]

Whats the guitarist using in his picking hand at 0:42?

[DarknessBlood1]

that jump made me laugh so hard at 0:56

[GeorgeSaag]

@DarknessBlood1 hahahaha mike patton on the stage looks like a crazy monkey jumping xD

[lakelful]

flying drumstick 2:19

[zigzagbigbag]

mike looks like ass napkin ed...lol

[re20bt]

omfg this version FKN ROCKS! SHIT YEAH!

[PsychoMan93]

@re20bt

Agreed, mayne.

[hgdatj]

Jims about 85 years old now he's takins a nap in his rocking chair any yeah metalica does suck!

[ramone]

daaaaaamnnn, Mike Bordin is a Beast on drums!!!

[buckleydowdle1]

wtf???where was Jim Martin??

[TheMetalChefOnline]

@buckleydowdle1 Uh - Jim Martin quit after Angel Dust. This was one of the last shows before the band split in '98.

[EmazonCookieWarrior]

There are bands who shows what music is, like: Faith No More, Kiss, Metallica and Rammstein!

[yovioleatuzorramadre]

@EmazonCookieWarrior metallica? rammstein? kiss? fuck no

[0AccRiku0]

@yovioleatuzorramadre You hardly even know what is Metallica, Rammstein and Kiss are!

[yovioleatuzorramadre]

@0AccRiku0 wrong, you dont know shit about me and you think you know me, gay arguments, you must be obama or something. first 4 metallica records are GOLD, after that, theys sucks (Specially in the black album and st.anger)

[rollerchopper57]

@yovioleatuzorramadre And you must be Justin Bieber. I'm just saying.  Don't mind.

[curefreak]

fucking killer man

[Awayze]

Whos the guitarist?

[alastair77]

@Awayze i BELIEVE that was jon hudson?

he was initially jim's replacement, i believe - before trey got the gig.

good, but NOT jim, to my mind?

:'(

\m/

[cadoixo]

FNM will destroy all corporations with their office suits!

[Lukith66]

[TheCOB98]

0:20 and 0:37 HOW JON DO THAT EFFECT

[alexjestermusic]

@TheCOB98 E bow

[mosyo]

17 idiot dislikes lol ..

[Grovonator]

I love faith no more, but when a drummer drops a beat and is a tick behind for a bar or so, it looses the feel. at 1:12

[SebaChannel]

no interlude??

well is better this way

[Wankfish10]

they shred live

[ianparker1000ify]

This song kicks ass but these guys BLOW live.

[BoddhasServants]

@ianparker1000ify are u fucking retarded?

[RomaVictor73]

The drummer looks like Rick Petko in profile=)

[matias7anriquez]

Damn  i love drunk patton !

[innersancthum]

Why is the singer having a seizer on stage?

[shazamwins]

tasty

[CPD503]

Dude looks like Orlando Bloom singing. I love these guys.

[MEsturmvogel]

With music so messy great, they dress so presentably.

[JakeTF2]

[MegaSlimes]

[1004abcD0953S741F]

2:17

Puffy broke a stick :P

[joeshmoisacoolguy]

does anyone know what kind of thing hes using to synthesize that guitar at 0:40? please help because i want one!

[Steamboat12002]

@joeshmoisacoolguy I think that's an E-bow, it sustains notes perfectly for a long time i think, really cool..thing.

[dbsk8r92]

ebow

[BOXITRASIUS]

Tu eres perfecto...eso es verdad...pero sin mi ..tu solo eres tu...in spanish men...jajjja...great!!!!!

[mlafrenier]

mikes voice is ridic

[rockermetalhead1200]

[SuperCockism]

[Jokieish]

357 666  cool :D

[IDGeneratorS]

[pjano11]

This happened 3 years after i was born and is still the best thing ever to come from music / rock in my life

[electrowaffle]

Remember the 90's?

[Jokieish]

love you Mike!!!!!

[Professicchio]

Looks like Patton's Mr.Bungle were really starting to influence the late FNM, ha ha..

Great stuff!

[0506thekid]

patton has been in his prime for 21 years!!!

[hellboymaine]

17 SUCKERS OF SATANS COCK.

[jesterlove17]

@hellboymaine I like how now there are 16 lol

[GhostFace38]

I can tell the editor of this video ain't that good... He showed everyone in the clip, Except Roddy Bottum, Gay discrimination? Who knows... xD

[Jokieish]

amazing sound at this festival !!!!

[7701it]

herre in anzug.... nit immer ernst zu nehme,lol

[chriscritsini]

you want to feel more that you live? listen to faith no more!

[anhedonia47]

I had to watch 2:44 so many times

[bobdailey53]

@fixed255 thanks for the tip. great resource. was looking for that rendition for awhile

[TheWoodyTiger]

The drummer don't wear a suit, and I know why.

[JaymieStone]

@TheWoodyTiger Bordin doesn't need a shirt, all he needs are his dreds.

[essay87]

@TheWoodyTiger I'd imagine that wearing a suit while drumming as hard as Puffy does wouldn't be too comfortable.

[GhostFace38]

The only thing this video is missing are more shots from the crowd, Without them you can't see their reaction to Mike Patton's Blessing Vocals and FNM's Kick-Ass Music

[EdanFlipz1031]

i like the crazy songs

[belaobs]

<3 love them

[cyluanderson]

please come back please MIKE please

[alphafloor71]

Please Faith No More... come and play in my town! Please ! Thanks for posting! awesome

[sb33100]

He came in a couple of beats too early.... like anyone cares though.

[shazamwins]

New vocalists - please take notes if possible.

[7656Genesis]

i like roddys face at 46, it looks like he screwed up or something. lol

[joey86bu]

If they ever reunite in the States I'm there!!

[Bushology]

It's certain scientific fact that Musical notes dazzle the soul of every person, Faith no fuckin More Hits all of them in everysong they've created

[Bilzerkliet]

This song is perfect, yes it's true!!!

[bikepeddlar6]

seams like every performance i watch of faith no more. patton is drunk. lol. still love this band

[snufffs]

legendary

[Gypsy4119]

Awesome!! dig it !!

[bigmachine666]

Euh.... je ne sais pas ce que vous avez dans les oreilles, mais cette prestation vient de me décevoir complètement, quand on voit la mise en place du batteur et ses breaks à rallonge qui destabilise tout le rythme, et le chanteur qui gueule dans son micro, nous préférerions-nous pas de revenir à la version album?

[ramone]

how can you DONT like this

it's fucking epic!

[lvedlf]

Prestation de qualité.

[PirateXzibit]

Summer 2009! Will never forget! Mike came out in a wheelchair LOL

[MrSUiTeDAcEs]

Mike Patton = God's mysterious Identity

[Andymalcolm1]

[electrizer]

the shot of Mike Bordin breaking his stick on the floor tom and then tossing it away is just priceless :D

[thomgohan]

[abby1261]

LOVE!

[sageross]

omfg....................... magic

[chriscritsini]

can anybody tell me what the guitarist uses during 'sense of security..' bridge for making this sound

[a7elite]

@chriscritsini he uses and ebow on that part it vibrates the strings so it creates a type of feedback

[dimert]

oof, great song but what's with the timing?

speeds up and slows down all over the place, the rest of the concert seems fine though

[dakodahsturgill3]

Man they killed this song. I bet the whole show was nuts, I wish rock was still creative and hard like this stuff.

[szilagyib76]

amazing, the whole band dont forget Puffy he is just brilliant!

[Ishtaaaaar]

One of the best singer ever ! Love Mike Patton

[TheCAJUZA]

[GangBoxer]

And he gave us Buckethead. :)

[simoneticm]

Cool...thousand times!

[alfordisashithole]

[johnw272]

If you watch realy close, as the drum sticks flies away, you can see him grab another. And he did it without missing a beat!!

[coquicholo]

Gracias a esta versión adoro el tema, la voz de Patton la cagó!!!

[GrizzlTooth]

Man, they sounded good live!
