[crazzyhubbard]

Lol Painted Target!

[newbster7]

charlie just wants to scream throughout :L

[bbbooosss100]

I like BUSTED and this FIGHTSTAR is too much.....

[getsase]

Quit smoking Charlie ...

[RobbieBarnby]

@getsase does he smoke?

[getsase]

@RobbieBarnby I think so

and his debut album displays his smoking picture as well

[pipandrew]

anyone else think that the drums are way too quiet 

[nemecek14]

@pipandrew i cant hear the bass actualy...

[Aschipupuck]

PAINTED TARGET???? WTF???? it's PAINT YOUR TARGET AND IT'S THE BEST SONG IN THE WORLD!!!

[califslayer]

Gr8t Job ! 2 bad I'm a ocean away to see em in person.

[naruto7769]

sounds like charlie has a sore throat

[TheOMGRhys]

0.10 fail! It's Paint Your Target lol

[brighteratnight]

Considering the whole throat infection situation, I think he still sounds good for most of the performance, maybe a bit gravelly but still pretty good. I think its pretty admirable that he went ahead with the show tbh :) <3

Ugghh at :56 it sounds so awful/painful/sick, poor Chaswick.

[ejcottier]

@jabmcrfan46 i know lol, wheres the snare?

[jayriggerz]

when it shows what song it is, it says 'Fightstar-painted target' when its actually paint your target LOL

[jayriggerz]

U cant hear the drums through out most of the song :(

[LeeSmellyFingers]

someone needs to turn the distortion down the guitars sound horrible...

[sunchild90]

the singing is so damn terrible here

[DanDaRockGod]

think this was when they had to cancel all there gigs because he had a throat infection so voice wont b up to standards yet

[sunchild90]

ahh, well i take it all back then

[ejcottier]

@sunchild90 its pretty obvious to tell that charlie has got a bad voice at that moment in time, give him a break

[sunchild90]

@ejcottier I dont think he sounds good on any live performances that i've seen on youtube

[newbster7]

This is fucking awesome,, im off too see them in leeds festival soon,, cant fucking wait!!

[Blinknord]

This performance is a reminder that Charlie always should do Deathcar after Paint Your Target..just listen to his voice man..

[john3245]

[mikeloveshishand]

Alex's voice sounds sweet!

Charlie's is off a bit...

it's usually the other way round with them live

ah well still a cool performance by them.

and Painted Target!? WTF

I'm sure they wouldn't spell a fucking Busted song title wrong. Retards

[afroduck1]

[mickybish156]

fuckin amazing line up that day (Y)

[LoserKidding182]

Fucking

[Mrbigbust]

PAINTED TARGET :D HAHAHA

[Minii182]

FIGHTSTAR<3

[theroseoftralee]

Can't hear the bass drum at all....shame!

[jason12321]

The intro sounds like Deftones.

[starblindmusic]

fightstar's main influence ;)

[AnesthesiaFuck]

im pretty sure he has a throat infection.

if you listen to his scream - it sounds a bit more raspy than usual, if you know what i mean.

and im pretty sure if he could he'd sing it.

[Hetfieldisgod1988]

This mite be around the time that charlie had a throat infection - he said in an interview that his voice was so fucked he didnt want to embarass himself singing badly so he just screamed instead.

[bookmarksgee]

I Agree. Yet the atmosphere was imense here. The line ups this year aren't as good, But I'm sure il have enough fun again this year.

[mrpingles]

Yeah, last year was fucking incredible. I was right in there, and met dan and al later on. awesome

[tomhitchen]

that massive PAINT YOUR TARGET is the best part of the song

[mavalasko]

Charlie needs to stop screaming the melodic singing parts. It just sounds rough and like he hasn't warmed up his voice properly. I also agree with the poor mixing... still a good band with killer songs.

[kris130186]

ripcurl boardmasters on T4...such an insult!!

[tommy2694]

haha painted target *rolls eyes*

stupid c4

[karicshnakof]

I think charlie sounds good

[fuckyounakedbluejean]

Wow the mix is fucking terrible here.

Guitars far too loud, the sound sucks, and the drums are nonesistent. Poor.

[sunchild90]

why do they always play channel 4 gigs? the presenters are fucking retarded as hell! lol!

[topdon123]

as big a fightstar fan i am, i must admit even the crowd sound better than al in this performance

[topdon123]

as big a fightstar fan i am, i must admit even the crowd sound better than al in this performance

[systemaniacgpi]

a voz do charlie tá cada vez mais rasgada *-*

[makbb]

it's the second time I read that it's due to the gear stuff ..I'm sorry my friends with all the respect I have for these guys ..they sound very bad because it's not possible to be as good as on a cd (with all its production avantages) when you make this kind of music....and charlie should have stayed with busted defintely, too bad

[saltysuicide]

pardon my french, and i think i speak for all the people here when i say... GO DIE IN A HOLE!

[spike189]

watch other live performances by the band....this one doesn't do them justice....they are awsome

[danutd94]

'Painted Target'??!? WTF

[xxnick182xx]

cut some slack for the backing vocals its not the most simple key to sing in x ace performance

[goobusmanubus]

i like fightstar but i think that this is a bad performance from them. the backing singer was a hunk of shitat the start and charlie was just screamin. get better towards the end though. there performances were better at york

[Mstar82]

as i say, i like charlies voice more in (e.g) the T4performance (+there was the screaming at the beginning, but there al was bad as hell lol)

here al is great, charlie is a talented sanger, but in this performance i must admit it wasnt good at all.

but all in all it is their best song (imo)and so its a great performance!

[targetpractise]

bad voice of charlie?

[jezhead]

'painted target'?

[zebedy00]

the drum mix is awful cant hear his cymbols

none the less awesome band see you guys in Feb

[whooppeedee]

what happened to Charlie's arm??

[bEnRoBiNs0n]

i think he burned it pretty bad

[weusedtobefriendsmus]

probs guitar burn

[7UDOGG7]

Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, nice performance and the crowd is amazing too ... thx for uploading^^

[Asphalthabitat]

2:33-2:40 - a beautiful shot of simo and al, partnership mann.

[0catbee26]

wat the, the guy says dont say the b word. then says it. wanker.

[musikist]

charlie was losing his voice yeah. the recording from this is terrible isnt it...i love fs...new album pisses all over the last one!

[LMC101]

i like it when the crowd get involved

[shad0wsparda]

i ust noticed ht teycalled ti painted target in the corner but it's called paint you target rediculous

[ibenathantaylor]

the crowd didnt do a very big wall of death though...

[Mstar82]

thats right, but his voice was better, should not mean, that his voice is now bad, because his voice is very good. and alex sings much better than in the past.

[kinney1990]

charlie was losing his voice around the time of this performance

[Mstar82]

charlies voice is in this performance of PYT really bad compared it to the earlier performances (e.g on T4, it includes the screaming at the beginning.

but anyway a really great song, a really fcking great band. (but charlie should grow his hair longer)

[LlamaQueenx0x]

PANITED TARGET?!?!? whaaaaaaatttttt ¬¬ i don't like channel 4 anymore

[kingy8181]

alex's voice sounds great.

(does charlie smack his head on the mic at 1.33?)

[LlamaQueenx0x]

Nahh he dosn't it's just the angle :]

[frearson1]

Funeral For a Friend was the best at tht gig thou they were amazin n i think i were on tv cus the cam shone on me lots of times lol

[abidingwings]

I fucking love charlie's smoking vocals.

[WALLYBOY26]

dont knock the bloke i was there and they fucking rocked

[Shilbach]

That guy is a twat. (The interviewer)

[FeePee17]

al's voice was excellent though

well compared to charlie's anyway

[paulhayhurst2007]

charlie sounded awful jeeesus

[Mackle]

It was ok. The vocals were bordering on average. Charlie needs to give up the smoking or learn to warm up. Otherwise it was a good show from a good band.

[Tomozaurus]

Painted Target!!?? Thats a joke!

[Josh1758]

i was there, second ro in the middle a metre to the left, was AWSOME!

[graeme6630]

Did anybody else notice that Channel 4 got the song title completely wrong? "Painted Target", LOL. It's "Paint Your Target". Idiots. Anyway, great performance, and great song. Fightstar ROCKS!!

[freediamonds]

im biased...

but nice guys

[frearson1]

lmao u no the stella blown up bottle thing in the vid i was the mini arm wavin in the air at the right of it n i agree wiv u both i never herd em but i agree

[Liziiiii]

They were good [=

Wish i wasnt next to two stupid twats who were shouting busted at him,

Why cant everyone just let it go!

fucks sakeee!

[theringfinder]

I fuckin agree man, 3 years on and u ppl still cant let go of all the busted shit, even though its 3 years dwn the line! Busted r dead, wer always fuckin shit and thank god r neva cumin bak. Cant believe that presenter brought up Busted, the nerve of the twat! Fightstar rule, Charlie is doin wat he shuda been a long time ago and hes doin awsum/ Keep up the gud work

[oth00]

oh my god can everyone just get over all this busted stuff and just live in the now and say fightstar is awesome. some people liked busted, personally i did, and some people didnt. can everyone just get over it. i did, they were good but they're not coming back. =[ if you dont like fightstar dont watch their stuff and comment saying they suck and if you're a busted hater dont watch busted stuff and comment saying you hate it. PS-FIGHTSTAR IS RAD.

[Shilbach]

"Don't mention the "B" word, he doesn't like it" He has moved on now! He is probably so pissed of with people like you! He doesn't care if you say he used to be in Busted, it's just people who bring it up from nearly 3 years on!

[1nazchan]

The recording mixing is pretty bad, as usual, but nice performance anyway !

[pinkunicorny]

awesome response by the crowd, they appeared chuffed by the response. I bet they made a few fans that day.

[szczypek666]

ye man made me

[crazymentalchris]

awesome stuff how r u people getting this all before me

lol

[PaintYourTarget19]

i love fightstar <3

[loadedlar]

if you were there that day and you're the girl i said looked awesome in that lovely hat you had pulled low over your eyes pleeeeease reply to this comment!

[Bretteh]

Charlie sounds like he's losing his voice.

Also nice to see the twats 1) can't get their song names right and 2) still bring up Busted THREE YEARS ON!

Twats.

[langauld]

amen. fucking idiots.

[wooders5]

Haha i was there amazing!

[mrpingles]

lol bad spelling. Awesome show, but the mixing dosen't do it justice

[Shilbach]

Painted Target? How can they misspell that. Twats

[Asphalthabitat]

sick, the crowd proper got into it aswell.
