Bloc Party - Banquet LIVE @ Glastonbury 2009 [HQ]

[JackDee94]

so underated !

[aphkoke]

at 2:11 is Chris from Skins?

[Altrockrecords]

All those smell europeans next to each other :/ ah

[TheSeb0ne]

1:28 keeeeeys



[katiefellout]

kele's mouth in this cx heheh it's so coot <3

[re11kon]

is it me, or is Matthew Tong that good a drummer, he could itch his nose at 1:36, WHILE playing the drum at the up-beat motion???

[carlo88moe]

it just makes me tear up to think about how good this band is and how amazing "silent alarm" was, brings me back to such a sweet time...

[3296856]

if you want muscles like Kele's,

play that riff for 5 years

[jtlonghornjt]

Way too fast

[Josabeech]

@jtlonghornjt Way too awesome.

[murthann]

love this live *-*

[3141592654ify]

SO UNDERRATED

[thaPrimus]

00:06 HOMOO

[GabrielCyberTeen]

2:28 a little bit late for this.

Awesome song, outstanding performance.

[JordanWalsh0]

@Biscan100 Yes, they are recording a new album soon.

[jpckuijer]

3 people were playing before an empty stage when this was shot. 

[enjoico1]

0:34 is a total :O face

[Josabeech]

Guy at 2:11 confuses me. He looks like a massive tool but he's singing along with all his heart to a Bloc Party song so he must be a legend.

[cvs84]

The best drummers in the world are both named Matt...

[Toby5000]

@cvs84 Danny Carey?

[yahseenme]

@cvs84 HELDERS!!!!!

[jpckuijer]

@cvs84 i didn't know the drummer from nickelback is named matt.

[JordanWalsh0]

@cvs84 Who is the other?

[Depawerage]

the drummer is insane! the guy is awesome!

[SRZYKODLYA]

me prende me prende lo mejor¡¡¡¡ wuaoooo

[Cleiusthenes]

I love how the crowd did the little "hah hah" at 0:34 that Kele does in the studio version of the song. Talk about dedication.

[AyalMorann]

@Cleiusthenes He actually does not do that on the studio version but the crowd, in many performances, does that anyway haha

[1993HBh]

can Bloc Party play for my birthday :D omg dreams!!!

[sexme9111]

they got me to play guitar

[bloc22]

@sexme9111 Same here. First guitar was a tele in suburst just like kele's.  Now I have an american tele in blonde with black pickguard like russel's lolol

[alexpesek]

Why doesn't anyone see Richie from Manic Street Preachers in Russel? Are that many of you Radiohead fans.

[FecklessCretin]

@alexpesek This guy's actually plugged in, that's 1 key difference

[AmuseMe543]

@sculler360 You got all that from my comment comparing Russel to Jonny Greenwood? (Which is a compliment by the way)

[AmuseMe543]

Somebody was influenced by Jonny Greenwood...

[LittleBuster89]

@AmuseMe543 Wow that whole Jonny Greenwood thing is soo old man. Talk about 2005 old. Yes, he was greatly influenced by him. Who cares. They're both buddies anyways. RUSSELL FTW!!

[Caroline00000000]

Matt Tong was born to play drums ;)

[marcostwin91]

kele is always wearing the coolest shirts

[elcolas182]

black gives way to hapiness !!

[grungifiedtwo]

Man, I miss them so much. 

[smithhedgehog]

when is he gonna take some singing lessons?

[Landlockt]

@smithhedgehog

When you play in front of 50k.

[smithhedgehog]

@Landlockt he ought to since he is a professional singer

[Christiandonaghey]

Love the crowd shouting the ''HA HA''

[EriikHoppus]

mtoooo bomm mano , saudações brasileiras. (:

[Josabeech]

COME ON GLASTONBURY JUUUUUUUUUUUMMMPPP!!

[dom125]

even at a massive festival, you can still hear the mistaken placement of the "HA HA"

[suprun007]

2 people racists

[Op4Blushift]

their playing a little fast here but still a good performance anyways

[7916111]

awesome i found this song

[Fifalegendxxyy9]

C'mon lads..get off Hiatus :(

[nickt1123]

@Fifalegendxxyy9 "As of April 2011, band members Matt Tong and Russell Lissack have separately confirmed that Bloc Party are working on new material. With Lissack mentioning that he had 'already written "maybe seven or eight songs" for the next Bloc Party LP.' The reunion is expected to happen towards the end of 2011, with no confirmed release for a new LP or touring dates."....off their wiki, so hopefully this is true

[ScruffiansBand]

@Fifalegendxxyy9 They are, look on the wikipedia page, and scroll down to "One More Chance" and hiatus (since 2009).

[sunflower7202]

who let a ninja play drums?

[galas062]

@sunflower7202 fuck off..)

[TheShel8777]

@sunflower7202 Racist maggot

[sunflower7202]

@TheShel8777 113 racist maggots ;)

[dspjonathan]

Ninja's are also playing very well!

[pinkygirl1011]

@sunflower7202 a genuis

[carlo88moe]

@sunflower7202 wrong question, why did a ninja let three scrawny kids play in front of his action?

[Blubellfield]

Haha the difference between Kele's and Russel's biceps :-)

Amazing band, hope to see them live at least once!

[foozlerful]

0:32

[XxxNesherxxX]

ups something sounds wrong at 0:27.....but no matter, they still sound pretty good...XD

[KeneticsMusic]

LISTEN TO US, IF WE GET ENOUGH VIEWS WE WILL BE ON RADIO 1!!

[DigoMafia]

is Bloc Party becoming a girl's favorite band?

[Sietenuevas]

@DigoMafia nope. it's becoming.....adult, turning into my soul

[bennyboy4ever]

is this speeded up a bit?

[JaydeScottBooks]

@bennyboy4ever It is.

[pickl3dpickl3s]

1.29 i see he wont be losing his keys any time soon

[manuelduardojr]

So hooked on this band!!

[merni14]

hmmm, it gets better when you listen this song a couple times after eachother

[stingeyes]

Darn. I freaking miss this!

[MrBadAssMonkey]

@stingeyes Word to that!

[livingpresidents]

i keep coming back to this. the crowd echo makes it sound so much better than the studio version of the song

[theirishclub]

best festival in the world

[Seffrey62106]

@teddyyybear he says, so negated.

[clapclapkick]

awesome song! :)

[RawrGurr]

i love awesome crowds LA has some shitty crowds

[obunkystaind]

@RawrGurr I'm from Chicago & I know what you mean. UK fans take their music to the soul. Music a 2nd language there.

[RawrGurr]

@obunkystaind Yes man exactly. I bet the concerts are to die for in the UK. Everyone seems to be having a good time.

[pauloh29]

awesome!!

[anghulinghiling]

superb.

[joesebas]

god, they are really on it here

[dumitruflorin73]

Does anybody know what model of telecaster is the one that Russell Lissack plays on??? Really wanna know :D

[bloc22]

@dumitruflorin73 Fender American Telecaster in vintage blonde

[WeAreUnion1]

kele middle finger 0:57

[tyson703]

One person likes going round disliking all these amazing Glastonbury 09 vids, must be an Oasis fan

GOD BLESS BLOC PARTY

[rafaelmadferit]

@tyson703

I like Oasis and Bloc Party... Why always dividing people?

[tyson703]

@rafaelmadferit Its a bit of fun, I listen to all kinds of music and Im not against any either. Oasis aren't my cup of tea though apart from the odd song

[scrubYOURface]

shirtless drummer = AMAZINGNESS

[Jakub949596]

woah jus realised they both had telecasters :L

[bloc22]

@Jakub949596 dude!.............how. You should know they play telecasters lol

[Jakub949596]

@bloc22 sorry m8 but im not exactly a huge fan of bloc party

[bloc22]

@Jakub949596 ohhhhhh my bad

[WeAreUnion1]

Kele playing the higher part? It makes me feel good to think that Russ has now played the bit I usually play

[guitarzpurenoise]

[Aminimouse97]

[Stryder94]

The beginning of this song live gets me so pumped up every time I hear it live, love the riff they share at the beginning, so unique yet awesome at the same time!

[thetoucanman1]

@Stryder94 The intensity builds up.

[xxxxxEzraxxxxx]

[nyboy101]

No dude...

Bloc party + Glasto = AMAZINGLY CRAZ

Bloc Party Live = A little bit crazy :P

[Pakozhoow]

I love this fuckin´ great song.! my favorite band :D

[DigoMafia]

Kele's conviction makes me be in love

you can't die, man

[silcity1]

this band are so underated. y is now emo bands are getting recognition for alternative music and not bands like bloc party, cribs foals and dat. i think emos and emo music is shit. indie rock is the best

[LetsGoFackingMental]

@silcity1 that's because the other bands are commercial shite. they get all the media attention and all the views. but i don't really care what other people like. i listen to indie music, so fuck it....

[Edlamb0306]

@silcity1 By emo music you mean what bands?

[silcity1]

@Edlamb0306 paramore my chemical romance and other shite bands 

[Edlamb0306]

@silcity1 Good, although Paramore aren't necessarily emo, they are shit. You're right, all these modern emo bands (not the old emo which wasn't scene-faggish like this modern tripe) are ruining music and alt rock's reputation.

The state of the music industry these days is appalling, thanks to the shitty fan boys/girls and scene kids.

[tomogh311]

@silcity1 Yeah, but indie, emo and metal music should be in a new genre called 'Real Music'. Explanation - they play real instruments.

[Turdburger33]

@tomogh311

no emo music isn't real music. it's to terrible to me concidered any type of music. "Emo" music, the realitivly good one's are such bands as Placebo, Deftones, even a bit of tool now and then not the crap that's be churned out these couple of years like BMTH, Escape the Fate all that junk.

[ilovekeleokereke]

@Turdburger33 the thing is. A lot of these bands are so talented its unreal. I have two favourite bands, Bloc Party and Enter Shikari. Two bands that are SO different its beyond words. But they are both unbelievably talented.

[theEvilbagel]

@Turdburger33 Except tool isn't emo, it's progressive metal. It's a selective taste in my opinion

.

But I agree, Deftones and Placebo are two of the only good ones, but you forgot the cure, they invented the scene really. And yes, the latest stuff is complete trash.

[FunkyBuddha15]

@Turdburger33

deftones are not emo

tool are prog metal

bring me the horizon are deathcore/metalcore

the original emo bands are the like of the cure and then bands like weezer, sunny day real estate, jawbreaker and even pixies.

deftones, emo? HA! you are so ignorant.

[MarleyFan1996]

@FunkyBuddha15 ehhh weezerrr? nahhh.

[FunkyBuddha15]

@MarleyFan1996 maybe not anymore, but back in the day weezer where definitely considered emo

[GreenFloyd12]

@FunkyBuddha15 haha I remember that, that was quite a while ago, they're pretty much the opposite now, still a great band, though.

[joaoluizsn]

This tells me that people are more than what they look like

[ob3ypr1mus]

@silcity1

underrated? are you kidding me lol

[ploki2120]

@ob3ypr1mus

It's obvious they ARE underrated comparing them with mainstream, if you value the music in the currency most commonly used to day: Quantity (listeners) and quantity (revenue) ...

[ploki2120]

@silcity1

but then it wouldn't be indie, now would it?

listening something that the majority DOESN'T recognize makes you a minority. The moment majority WOULD recognize it, that would probably make it uninteresting for the minority.

I'm not talking about being cool for listening to less popular bands, i'm talking about the natural development of music of not succumbing to the needs of the general public, because of the public it is designed for :P

Mostly it is just picking either ART or money

[silcity1]

@ploki2120 thats a good point you make.

[jakedawake]

Omg..ive been looking through glastombury concerts of kasabian, franz ferdinand..all great bands..but for me theres no band that can even compete with bloc party..I mean just look at this!XD

[eclaireurspatial]

The enegry of this preformance!!!

WOOOOOW

[jsgc13]

one of my dreams is go to england, and glastonbury !! someday i will :)

[millo24]

great great band

[DanishDrummingManiac]

What i wouldn't give to be in Matt's place...

[obienala123]

Best opening few seconds of any song EVER!!!!!!

[DanDyStereo]

Amazing! That's the only thing I can say! Fuckin' amazing!

[rohanmcd]

drummer looks like Fogal from superbad !

[rajivk91]

I would love it if all youtube live vids were like this

[MrP90xer]

GOD i really hope i can go to GLASTONBURY one day!!!

[benbay001]

This is the band, after Prodigy, who i most want back this year!! ace performance!

[badmofo3000]

at 1:38 he plays one handed and fixes his glasses haha he's very..underated

[KidAlphabet]

Fucking brilliant man

The solo needs to be louder.
