Them Crooked Vultures - 01 Elephants (Pro-shot, Reading 2009)

[AIRXV]

3:33 kids with hope.

[FireTheMarshall]

i was wondering where the drummer of nirvana had been all these years. I'm glad he finally decided to go back to making music again.

[cherock77]

@FireTheMarshall ..U gotta be kiddin me firethemarshall....where have u been for the last 15 yrs?....Try Foo Fighters...

[JoelLikesThis]

is this the kids tent or something??

[Outer0Heaven]

Queens of the Led Fighters \m/

[CaribDude815]

They should have done a Nirvana or Led Zeppelin cover to get the crowd going, that would have worked ALOT better, lol

[xxMMxKIDxx]

@CaribDude815 Why would they do that? Their respective bands have their own place and this is a TCV show.

[1zv]

look how shit the crowd is....reading is for kids nowadays

[1zv]

kyuss>tcv>qotsa

[SBlachere]

i hope John Paul Jones get the credit he always deserved :).

[ashbayly69]

I don't think there is enough strings on John's bass. lol

[CaribDude815]

This band is now one of my top 5 supergroups.

[trunkatedpig]

Jimmy Page: Robert Plant won't go on tour with us? Fuck.

John Paul Jones: Robert Plant won't go on tour with us? Fuck him, imma start my own band.

No disrespect to plant, es a boss, but STOP BITCHING AND DO ANOTHER LEDZEP TOUR, MAN!

[thecookiemonsterr255]

go dave :)

[stevenrose86]

Wasn't this a secret set, before anyone had heard them properly? That's why no-one knows the words.....

[edslipknot666]

@stevenrose86 yes sir :P

[drewmic323]

Haha "RegularJohnny" is that from the QOTSA song Regular John?

[RegularJohnny]

@drewmic323 Regular John + Johnny the boy. My favourite songs from qotsa and the desert sessions :)

[mkrabc]

@RegularJohnny dont forget johnny park!

[exoticclownness]

this just looks funny, because everyone knows of what dave grohl can do, like even singing! and josh homme is just efneqog newgn wooo!

[TheJesperAble]

Hell yeah, alain has a motorave just like Joshua!

[Dmanichawk]

This band will always be awesome!! F'in epic music! The combination between Dave Grohl's crazy drumming shit, and the epic bass line of the all mighty John Paul Jones, and the awesome riffing and characteristic vocals of Josh Homme and Alian Johannes!

Long live Them Crooked Vultures :D WE SALUTE YOU!

[thespainisharmada]

John Paul Jones hasn't lost a single step.

[Libertinedreamful]

That awkward moment when noone in the crowd knows the words......

[RegularJohnny]

@Libertinedreamful that awkward moment when someone hasn't done their homework. The album wasn't even out yet, of course no one knew the words. And I really wish people would stop with this 'awkward moment' crap, it is annoying.

[Libertinedreamful]

@RegularJohnny I knew this album wasnt out yet, i went to see them in 09 aswell. At least the crowd then did abit more than just go 'wooooo' - Now that's annoying.

[manicContrebasse]

Fat guitar sound ahah ::))

[Guitarist720x]

cutie at 0:46!!! :D

[giopoveta]

3:08 guy LOL

[BlueOnionGroup]

[mance02]

[PerfectlyMisplaced]

Ze zijn wel echt fucking goed he :)

[despje09]

josh homme is a ginger elvis

[jamirosmajicrocks]

[wavepad4]

[thekempster1874]

@scottywilso ur a fukin twat u shut the hell ur bout dave grohl he's a legend he is 1 of the most sucsesful musicians in the fukin world crawl in a ball n dont slag him off :)

[brunovolpato1]

Dave Grohl was probably raised by wolves.

[JamesL2511]

Merci om mijn dagen goed te maken met al je geweldige video's!

Doe zo verder! :D

[RegularJohnny]

@JamesL2511 zal ik doen! :D

[laganas2008]

John looks pretty good for someone in their 60's. He doesn't look that much older than Josh.

[jebroder]

I will go so far as to say that this is one of the 20 best songs of all time. Rock the fuck on guys.

[huttond12]

anyone know what guitar josh is playing?

[jonny26281]

@huttond12 its a maton

[scottywilso]

Dave Grohl is a fucking horrible dummer

[maxpocho15]

@scottywilso callate pijita muerta, el pibe tira arreglos piolas y en todo caso hay que agradecer que el loko va por stoner y no por ser el batero de rianna,,,, gil! se mas buena onda y mas humilde chabon, altos riff's y cambios ed tiempo meten che, tampoko es que son mr. bungle pero no vale la comparacion tampoco!

[RebelThoughts]

@scottywilso Stop eating paint chips you fuckin retard.

[swolfje]

@scottywilso Hey dude Shut Up

- Have you been the drummer of the most succesful rock band in the world (nirvana)

- Have you founded a succesfull rockband, wich every american have heard of

- WTF if he was a horrible drummer how did he get in Nirvana and Them Crooked vultures and Foo Fighters and they were ALL SUCCESFUL

SO Shut The Fuck UP

[grohl51]

@scottywilso And you are a horrible human being...

[BurialWarlock]

@scottywilso Your joking right? If not, I'd like to see the video of your incredible drumming. Don't worry. I'll wait.

[jonny26281]

@scottywilso ok mate. whatever you say troll. nobody gives a shit what you say. why do you watch a video to slag someone off. i dont get it

[ATMAN160]

22 peopl enever got the led out

[thesinner922]

1:28 HERE COMES THE GROOVE!!!

[vikramas1109]

What do you get when three amazing musicians from three epically awesome legendary bands get together and jam? Them Crooked Vultures. THAT"S THE GOOD SHIT!

[maxamo1000]

I don't understand how Josh can strum so fast and hard and only hit one note at a time. It's confusing.

[DangerRifai]

@maxamo1000 Good muting technique, coupled with an overdrive/distortion setting that hasn't got too much gain. There's a video on here with John Frusciante explaining how he uses that in Dani California (and other songs). /watch?v=7_wHP6urTBc

It's very useful. It allows you to rock out and get a percussive sound at the same time as hitting all the single note lines you need to.

[oneloveman988]

That's friggin John Paul jones!!

[RegularJohnny]

hell yes, over 500k views!

[awesomeattic]

does anybody see the resemblance between the drummer and the singer of the foo fighters?

[fi1ipinoCh3f]

@awesomeattic It's the same person...

[awesomeattic]

@fi1ipinoCh3f Really?!?! oh that's so cool hah

[argonPOS]

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, JOHN PAUL JONES, DAVE GROHL AND THE GINGER KING.

[sillman]

22 people are virgin.

[keepmusicevil89]

josh do some curls your arms are fat

[bure998]

absolutely awesome number..TCV rules. nice to see all those young kids getting off on us old guys!

[KIRKMAN91]

josh looks like a total bro, like the beach volleyball and football at the rocks after school type

[gtojoe04]

Is this coldplay or u2?

[TheJurneyMan]

@gtojoe04

Sexually frusterated dork trying to make people angry i'm guessing... Have fun with that

[whatsupmaniamme]

FUCK WHERE'S THE NEW ALBUM???

[metalheadd1000]

What a great way to start a show

[heckfarr]

Does JPJ know that PRS ripped of his bass design for Dweezil Zappa's signature guitar? (that costs $11k)

[michaels2099]

Why can I only click the like button once? That is NOT enough! Wheres the "I fucking love this" button? Come on Youtube get with the program FFS!

[heliosoria]

Bass player= John Paul Jones = Led Zeppelin

[vilee453]

who's the bass player?

[GreenFloyd12]

@vilee453 The bassist is John Paul Jones.

[Phistaff]

Dave..

[CurtisScofield]

2ND ALBUM PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASEEEEEEE!!! Agreeeeeedd!

[WalterSobchak1000]

2ND ALBUM PLEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSEEEE!!

[Fooman72]

Thank you for posting all of this!

[satarielful]

1:43 Fucking hipster...

[missy0413]

Love how John looks as young as those guys! He aged well, Robert Plant looks like a lion and Jimmy Page....i'm not sure lol this is a great band! and long live the mighty zep =]

[00kryzol00]

I Love this song :D It's so freaking good.

[fairyfellermaster]

I love this supergroup & JPJ seems to be the only member of Zeppelin to still be able to play at that high level of energy. Robert couldn't sing this fast & Jimmy couldn't sit with them at that speed, no offense to them.

[TheFuktastic]

Dave Grohl is one hell of a drummer

[records789]

Such a terrible voice

[WildCardFive]

JOHN PAUL JONES. Good to seem him back in action. Guy kicks an inhuman amount of ass.

[MrCoreymo15]

This is the supergroup to end all supergroups. And Biebers.

[lazer59882]

@MrCoreymo15 fuck off with that kid. im sick and tired of coming to unrelated hard rock videos and seeing that fucking child's name. no one cares here.

[capncrunch537]

...LIKE A BAWSS.

[formerroadie]

As a musician, I can't imagine being David Grohl and having John Paul Jones call me up and agree to play with me. What a mind job. That would be just the most epic thing ever. And then playing with him?! I'm a bass player, so HELL YEAH!

[cnewman99]

@formerroadie That'd be insane, especially since Bonham is Dave's favorite drummer.

[yeop23]

0:47 i want that girl

[TheBlankplanet]

This makes me miss Led Zeppelin, Nirvana and Kyuss so much... DISLIKE

[kunaikai]

@TheBlankplanet fuck kyuss, queens are so much better

[TheBlankplanet]

@kunaikai Oh hell no :)

[kunaikai]

@TheBlankplanet dude why do you think one is famous and the other isnt

[TheBlankplanet]

@kunaikai Quotsa is way more famous than Kyuss, but the music is worse. All quotsa records after Rated R were r e a l l y boring.

[02rcsmit]

@TheBlankplanet Thats possibly the most invalid comment I've ever seen on Youtube.... and that's saying something!! QOTSA fuck Kyuss in the arse and most other bands!

[Porly62]

The word "Supergroup" doesn't come even come close describing this collaboration...

BTW: Alain Johannes is criminally underated.

[MaulSlasher]

@Porly62 Good music is underrated nowadays!

[brandemonium5]

eh, we just do this on the side

[HeuristicThought]

Top comments :

"JPJ plays bass. hes the former led zepplin bassist"

******why are comments like these becoming top comments?????*****

I'll tell you why. Because it's america, fuck yeah, we're gonna save the motherfuckin day, yeah.

[dubingster]

NIRVANA

[rcidao]

WHY 20 people dosent like?

[Vartlokkur]

Офигеть!музыка просто супер, не думал что можно так хорошо играть вживую=)порадовал Гроул=)задорный мужик

[egocatcher]

Alain!

[wrigglingaround]

holy fucking shit, Led Zeppelin, Eleven, Foo Fighters and QotSA together...perfect combination

[GieziAndrei]

@wrigglingaround And Nirvana.

[liavv6]

best Fucking opener eveeeerrrrr

[subhumanx7]

Damn that's hard. Dave grohl sells it but the song is more than the sum of it's parts. These guys better make another album because one is not enough.

[bertiemycat]

jesuss grohl is such a beast

[Eldererr]

6:55. John Paul Jones tired. Wow.

[DoubleDz2k11]

@Eldererr naahhhh, he just thought to himself "OK now im definitely too old for this shit!"

XD 

[willybumbum35]

if you don't know who the bassist is then you are not a true rock and roll fan

[DFWGatoCat]

JPJ looks exhausted here. I worry about him.

[peutch]

Dave Grohl is looking more and more like John Bonham.

[theanalogsound]

"pro-shot", but why is the sync so horribly off?!

[mrChe5ter1]

@theanalogsound cos ur computer is sh*t

[RegularJohnny]

@theanalogsound Pro-shot means that it was shot professionally i.e. not by the audience. It does not necessarily have anything to do with the audio being out of sync. That can happen in the conversion process while cutting up the concert into seperate songs so that it can be uploaded onto youtube. Or youtube can knock it out-of-sync. The audio of this video is not out-of-sync for me. I put pro-shot in the title of this video because it was one of, if not the first, pro-shot vid of TCV available.

[DillingerEscapeMan]

@theanalogsound The sync isnt off

[ryandunncod4]

8 string bass!

[boingpeleja]

@TheOrangepeak And i really think you´re just trolling in here.

[boingpeleja]

@TheOrangepeak No one of them has nothing more to prove. Let the guys enjoy his music!

[TheOrangepeak]

@boingpeleja I was just talking,I'm surprised that nobody else was disappointed by this band. Anyway like I said, no animosity in my speech, glad for you if you like it :)

[xfr0zzenx3]

0:46-049 love <3 :D

[TheOrangepeak]

I really don't get it . I was fan of dave grohl, fan of led zep, and definitely a huge fan of kyuss. This guys are not sérious anymore, it's all about the money ( look all the teenager...) . This song is so predictable and so boring. I can't believe that john paul jones plays with this guy (his bass line has only 3 notes ??? wtf ??)

anyway i'm going to listen some great old shit that josh wrote when he was 20

Rock is dead

[osito060308]

@TheOrangepeak you know what dude, your so narrow minded if you want to listen to old shit do it but believe me their are amazing music happening right now, and dave grhols drum are fucking amazing also Josh guitars but whatever dude really i imagine you only listen to old music your are fucking borring. ooooo and by the way you want to listen to great rock listen Titus Androcinus, YUCK, Iceage and alote of bunds dont hold on to the past music evolves as people

[TheOrangepeak]

@osito060308 Do you read me or it's just your heart talking ? I said rock is dead, not the music. I took a listen to the bands you recommend (yuck and iceage) (and you, have you take a listen to kyuss, like the split cd with QOTSA ?). When your brain can predict what's gonna happen in the next few seconds of a melody, this is boring stuff to me. 4/4 everywhere and 3minutes songs...as 50years ago . But in my opinion…..

[TheOrangepeak]

@osito060308 …JPJ has written so many beautiful things,I just don't understand why he is doing that.It's a big set up.For me, this band is a huge marketing project,which seems to be working well.You talk about evolution? Their is no evolution,this is the same again and again,like in the policy.The only thing that keep me smiling is that,no matter what you're playing, their is always somebody to listen to it.If people enjoy it,I can't blame them.Thx for trying anyway, no animosity in my speech

[toefes]

@TheOrangepeak

Less is more :)

[kevondrums81]

JPJ is still such a bad ass after all these years! :)

[scramble0gamble]

What do you get when you cross led zepplin + queens of the stone age + nirvana? PURE FUCKING AWESOMENESS!!!11!!1!1!1!!1!11!­!

[newianpaice]

its funny how  josh homme at the begging was why i was unsure that this band would be good, but now is the main reason i like them, and now i am also the biggest queens of the stone age fan, hes incredible

[andreb06]

how did they not get rock album of the yr??

[Keulenkobold]

could be a cream song



[Jassmain]

@Keulenkobold why?

[TatiHolmes]

Great! *_____*

[MJkate]

[kingquaps]

@MJkate I noticed that and laughed a lot. "yeah, I'm mega serious about this music!"

[anand308]

THIS IS SO FUCKING KICK ASS!!!

[FuzzHelmet]

this isn't from Reading festival, its from Radio 1's One Big Weekend. You can tell becasue the crowd are shit

[Madhatter921]

@FuzzHelmet This is Reading. It's in The Radio 1 NME tent. I was there. The crowd was pretty shit.

[iamemilybonjour]

@Madhatter921

If I recall you me at six was on after TCV which may be why the crowd is appalling.

[DrewMongo]

who plays Bass?

[RegularJohnny]

@DrewMongo Nick Oliveri

[pinbackfm]

@RegularJohnny nope, its John Paul Jones!

[jcnafe2]

@RegularJohnny John Paul Jones plays bass. He's the former Led Zepplin bassist.

[RegularJohnny]

@jcnafe2 I know that ;) it was so obvious that JPJ plays bass that I just answered Nick O.. Everybody knows its JPJ. I even met TCV a couple of times and seen them live 4 times. So yeah...

[Willificationify]

@RegularJohnny Nice backpeddling.

[RegularJohnny]

@Willificationify thanks!

[lilbullet111]

@RegularJohnny

Haha, in Regular Johnny's defense here, the question wasn't particularly specific...

[NJW3]

@jcnafe2 Nice spelling.

[MrMephisto89]

@DrewMongo Shame on you sir

[fbmandy55]

@DrewMongo Are you fucking kidding? JPJ!!!

[DrewMongo]

@fbmandy55 I obvously thought he pkayed guitar, I looked at his bass. sorry!

[krapow71]

@DrewMongo Is the Master John Paul Jones of led Zeppelin

[phasehere]

@DrewMongo John P. Jones of Led Zeppelin

[ScienceofShadows]

@DrewMongo DTAR FUCKER SO YEAHHHH FAG
