Boxcar Racer Live 10 30 2002 Cat Like Thief

[masterofdesaster113]

Love them! Best band

[ihaveniceass]

There's three live videos of this song on youtube and they're all just audio? It'd be cool if there was an actual video of them playing this.

[schiggy182]

it's no wonder mark sang this song at the end.

[fricktasticful]

@schiggy182 When did Mark sing a Box Car Racer song?

[schiggy182]

@fricktasticful my bad. it was elevator he did vocals on... not this one. 12th track.

[fricktasticful]

@schiggy182 Oh, well yeah. Sorry, I thought you meant live. I just thought it'd be awesome if he ever performed live with them.

[schiggy182]

@fricktasticful it's cool. that would have been rad if he would have done that.

[keithjames18]

idk y ppl hate on toms voice... when your actually at the show, it sounds amazing.

[EBILman95]

timing entrance fail :P

but this song and this band are still great

[44AncientPredator182]

from boxcar and forward is when tom started sucking at singing

[Tom364]

@44AncientPredator182 cause thats when he got his surgery done and than the pain pills happened

[strongsock]

ugh god toms singing is fucking god awful in this

[docteurmagie]

american idol ftw! LOL

[mightymouse5565]

he didnt start that early? did he? oh yeah! cuz after boxcar he switched to his gibson wich is liter. but what about there live performances in blink they were great! in 03 and 04...he didnt seem to be all drugged out.

[ACE9647]

Just be in mind he was on painkillers cuz he had pressure on the largest nerve in the body the pain mustve been un imaginable he even had to be in a wheel chair for awhile

[thosestupidkids1]

Keep in mind, a lot of these drugs were taken simultaneously. Keep this empirical fact in mind:

Combining drugs morphs the effects. It does not just add the effects together.

When one is under the influence of multiple psychoactive substances simultaneously, the affects are not simply like adding the affects of each drug individual.

[thosestupidkids1]

Rather, they work "synergistically." So, for example, if alcohol makes you drunk and drowsy (or belligerent and angry), pot makes you think a lot or really happy, coke makes you really tired, edgy or think a lot... you can't just say that mixing them will be "drowsy + happy + edgy + tired etc." Instead, they will all mix and the affects will multiply and make it so that you are taking a COMPLETELY different substance, so you may act in ways that are unpredictable.

[pplus0440]

@thosestupidkids1 nice chemistry avegadro, you make all that bullshit up?

[Hubbsed]

I didn't realize Tom was hooked.... I still like this song though.

[thosestupidkids1]

Oh... I had not realized he was hooked on painkillers... I Can relate. I was pretty hooked on a lot of things. Not painkillers, but heavier stuff. I hope it didn't mess with my performances.

I'm really, really glad Tom wasn't hooked on anything like what I was- ecstasy, amphetamines, pot... you name it, I've done it. C'est la vie, monami, c'est la vie: Long live DeLonge!

[penguinsoulja96]

since when is pot "heavier" then pills?

[darkbobo99]

@penguinsoulja96 it the gate way drug it get u to meth pills coke and etc

[TheSanctum8]

@darkbobo99

lol that's a silly theory that has never been proven, just propaganda by our Government. I drank alcohol before I decided to try cannabis. That would make alcohol my gateway drug. For others, smoking cigarettes can by their gateway into drinking/cannabis. It's also possible for someone to try heavy drugs first and then cannabis after. The gateway theory is just a fraud. So do we blame drinking milk when we were baby's as our gateway into drinking alcohol?

[thosestupidkids1]

I notice Tom always sort of has the voice that he's singing in this song whenever he plays live with Blink, Box Car or AvA... is it because he's on something? I always wondered.

[kingoftroy57]

he was on painkillers for a while, and he has played quiet a few shows drunk.

[pplus0440]

@thosestupidkids1 very drunk

[Pondebong]

@thosestupidkids1 No, keep in mind he sings and plays guitar at the same time. So of course he is going to sound super tired and exaggerated. When you are in the studio you have all the chances to get the vocals right. And he doesn't sing good live any more because he recovered from cancer. He broke many disks in his spine. And he got addicted to pain killers. he is not on drugs.

[Stibmaster93]

and the other voice??

[HiMyNameIsNinaK]

lmfao, de DOES sound drunk xD

[N64Guy]

HAHAHAHA sounds drunk

[TheAlbi09]

it's great

[patoc12]

rlz...

[mafejr]

hmm.. is this like the year where his voice started to change? :/

[licklelivy]

its when he was pretty drugged up and singing wasnt all that great , if you listen to stay together for the kids live (cant remember wich vid) but hes pretty bad, still love him though :)

[Jhess94]

stay together for the kids - kroq

[mafejr]

i dont get how the drugs affected him. was it making him drowsy??

oh and same here! i still love him! :)

[licklelivy]

im not sure maybe he just though he sounded good haha he talks about it in AvAs film 'Start the machine' he just said he didnt really know what he was doing or saying when he was on them so i guess it affected how he sang :)

[darrelnicolaye]

i think it just made him think he sounded good that way. lol

[licklelivy]

haha mabey...

[2020Network]

youve obviously never tried to sing high off painkillers. omgg its awful. hahahahaha

[howdaremysheep10]

omg hes totally high xD
