Stereophonics SECC, Glasgow - December 2008 (Vegas Two Times)

[history384]

I CAME WHEN I SEEN THE CROWD!

[MrJLCummings]

This may well be my favourite intro to a gig ever.

[alittleinbetween]

When that curtain drops, so do my balls!

[stereochris1]

it was an amazing night, thats the best opening song ever

[stereochris1]

it was an amazing night, thats the best opening song ever

[nicssworld]

the recordings dont even do them justice, live they are just phenomenal! Such a brilliant opening!

[smithhedgehog]

@nicssworld Totally agree!!! Never owned an album, but one of the best LIve bands I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot.

[bobodd5]

good sound just seen joe satriani here one marshall or peavey too many think its the flashing lights but bloody good

[KardiffFan99]

woah .....

[rileyhend]

Great song. Richard Jones' harmonies are top notch.

[Avlarrr1988]

@rileyhend That's not Richard, that's their 2nd guitarist Adam.

[rileyhend]

@Avlarrr1988

Oh right, I just assumed that new lad just played in the background and it was still Richard.

[Avlarrr1988]

@rileyhend Nah he's an official member now so he gets front of stage with the rest of the band, Richard's vocal mic is turned down rather quiet so he's soft in the background whilst Adam's mic is just lower than Kelly's!

[rileyhend]

@Avlarrr1988

Nice one, makes them sound alot fuller. Seeing them at TITP this year, hopefully they'll be at their best!

[19beano87]

[thaniblue]

[cfcantlee]

[rosiewise]

Loving Rich's enthusiam to get started, shame we don't see much of the others and it's not in HD. Had butterflies when the curtain fell tho... like watching the show again but loving the behind the scenes feel to this! :oD

[davetopboss]

good fight in the carpark afterwards, a bit of road rage. brilliant.!

[buckboy81]

[xmisspnutinix]

Can remember it like it was yesterday <3

[nicoleepaterson]

[DIETCOKE24]

OMG, I was there, the best concert i hve seen this year soo far. UNTIL TITP lol

[smurfu2]

Me and my beautiful lady was at this for my birthday. Thanks honey

[adrithekiller]

Best intro ever, indeed, best part is when they mention South America aka my continent, Jav grew up in my country :D

[butlerscabin2008]

Best british band by miles,Intro was ace,i love this track,kelly=god

[Ju5t1ne]

Oh God, I was there ! It was so fucking awesome ! ! ! Can't wait to see them again ! =p

[chrisalexander21]

Love the band, but Shit intro :(

[js7bigmanufan]

Sorry but that was an absolutely amazing intro!!

[123whalley123]

reall really great intro

[samg93]

Rockin Gig

i was there both nights:)

[karljones03]

fuckin awesome opening! was at notts and then birmingham! met the lads after the birmingham gig too! really nice blokes...!!!

[PedenBoy1]

a was at tht gig :P

[chazatkinz1]

i was there at that gig , It was brilliant, my

first time seeing them, they are so good live.I want to see them again

[Stereophoneygaz]

I think it's Bo Diddley I'm A Man

[misterwriter88]

Is it me or is Richard an amazing dancer!?!

[Pearlmind07]

Dunno, you're not in the video. xP

[Cfeingle]

Words cannot describe how amazing this opening was. I was at the front and centre for this at the CIA in Cardiff. First the tense wait for it to start, then the intro and the curtain coming down and that opening riff! Brilliant!

[misterwriter88]

I was the same at the O2. Was so fucking amazing and I love this song live. Roll on next year!!!!!

[ckgallagher2]

One of the best nights of my life!!!!!!

i remember when they came out and started playin was one of the best feelings EVER!!!

hope they come back soon!!!!

[medwar1]

song is mannish boy by muddy waters

[maltwiz]

cheers medwar - stops me wondering!!

[greatlordrich]

adam cant sing

[maltwiz]

Bad to the Bone used a guitar riff ripped off from Bo Diddley so I think the intro track is Bo singing 'I'm a Man' - check out some of the youtube clips and see what you think = prepared of course to be told I'm wrong (twas ever thus!)

[smfcgreg]

I mean the one that goes back not towards kelly.

[smfcgreg]

The 2nd pint that goes up at 1:04 is mines! cant believe itsa in the video.

[nalalovesmuse111]

i was there....was amazin night

[misterwriter88]

From what you all saying. Saturday is going to be amazing!!!! Oh my God! Can't wait. Might piss myself with excitement!

[maltwiz]

I'm jealous - saw them in Brum on Monday and they were stunning - want to see them again!! Prep yourself for the encore with You're My Star and Billy Davey played as acoustic numbers (with BArtender and of course Dakota bringing it to a close in more traditional manner) - haunting and beautiful

[misterwriter88]

I'm trying to but will probably lose it when they come on stage! Like I did the last two times!

[maltwiz]

enjoy writerman!

[misterwriter88]

FUCKING AMAZING! Get better with age!

[jamdcfc10eng]

good luck with that!

[misterwriter88]

Can't wait for the next tour! Will be there for that.

[SophieLovesLeon]

[eldoradas]

yup, the one in Notts was too damn awsum!

[pelgrow]

yah... nottingham rocked was a shame it had to end... AMAZING!!!!!!! even at the back!

[rstyrone]

i was here, was fantastic

[dollydoornail]

The into ws 'Bad to the Bone' not sure who sings it though!!!

[maltwiz]

BAd to the Bone is George Thorogood & the Destroyers but I don't think it was that track - or them - initially thought was Robert Johnson but now not so sure

[dollydoornail]

Nottingham gig was amazing!!! Never fail to pull off a great gig.... carnt wait til the next one!!! Keep up the good work boys and see you all soon xx

[arsenalrdabezt]

[sonic692]

Cant wait for the gig @ O2 on the 20th!!

[stumpynadge]

Incredible show, last night @ CIA, they simply blow you away.

[althomoore]

Great video I love it, I have posted a video from the first night in Glasgow, Waht a concert Stereophonics are natural entertainers and know how to put on a performance.

[mazb81]

not being funny but does it really matter what night it was!!! BOTH nights were amazing, the band are fantastic, and good luck to them for the rest of the tour! :) Also glad to see Adam has been announced as official member of the band! :)

[PullThePin1]

Right, whoever is saying this is the second night is talkin pish, i was there both nights, and i cant see myself where i was standing on the second night. And at the middle 8, kelly walked to the right hand side of the stage on tuesday and the left on wednesday :) Glad i could clear that up.

[spm1981]

I havejust posted a video respone, just awaiting it to be verified. as i was at the opening night and the commentary came first and then the blues music. so this must be the 2nd night for the audio.

[PullThePin1]

I think thats what must've happend here then, because the second night there was lots of strobe lighting just before they started playin vegas two times and thats not shown here...the flashing only starts when the music starts.

[kearnm]

i cant even understand me... anyway... they were just piss yer pants awesome anyway...

[kearnm]

i think the vids from the first night but sound from the first. lookin at videos on this and being there. they had already started playing the intro after the drum bit when the curtain was half way down. but on nite two the guy introduced them and they began and the curtain fell earlier... still awesome though

[InYerScheme2k7]

oh my, i can actually see me and my boyfriend! :-D

[chaz251187]

saw them in cardiff yesterday! was sooo amazin!!

[JulieC48]

I really love seeing them at the intimate gigs - but now after seeing this I can't wait to see them on the stadium tour next week!!!

[Paradisetopain]

For anyeone wondering, this actually isn't the opening night of the tour at Glasgow as the description says. It's the second night at the gig. You know this because on the 2nd they did the voice over, played that little tune then the curtain came down.

On the 3rd the did it the opposite way around as it is in this video.

[kcun87]

Which night in glasgow was this?

[Lostprophet252525]

this vids from the opening night, but they did the same both times ( i was at the second night :p)

[Paradisetopain]

Search youtube for videos of the opening song on both nights.. you will see clips of the 2nd and they definitely did it the opposite way around to this! I remember after the voice over at the first night thinking why aren't they coming on as soon as the guy talking says 'I give you Stereophonics!' we had that tune for a minute or so before they started playing Vegas two times and the sheet came down.

[Lostprophet252525]

oh right - must be the second night then :P i would've expected it to be both but, ahh well

:D

[phonicsfan1]

i was at the 1st night (tue) in glasgow to see the phonics and the entrance was longer than this entrance so this must have been the wed night

[ashleyluvsdannyjones]
