(HD) The Dismemberment Plan - "The City" 1/20 Fallon (TheAudioPerv.com)

[TheWanderingPrimate]

What the what? D-Plan was on a t.v. show? Don't even recognize Travis here. I knew about the mini-tour, but I thought that was just a temporary thing; going on t.v. seems like the action of a true reunion. Dare I hope? Plan and Fugazi = some of the best shows of my life.

[tourettes84]

Holy fuck, Carrie Brownstein at the beginning. Add to that a reunited Dismemberment Plan, I would've fainted to see them both at the same time.

[MathSongForSerdenes]

turn that synth bass up!

[pcoldham]

what a lineup for a show - this fallon guy has taste in life

[wamenfi]

God I love these guys, their drummer is something else!

[TwistConeBand]

This is a Kelly Clarkson cover, right?

I feel the need to clarify that I'm kidding.

[SidewaysIsDead]

I love how fucking happy Travis looks haha

[hotmetaldobermans]

also, so funny to see the e+i album art on JIMMY FALLON....wat...the....fffuuuu­...jimmy fallon is on late night!!! STILL WEIRD!

[hotmetaldobermans]

they shoulda played girl o' clock and tore that shit to pieces.

[alexapolasky]

i think they have rivers cuomo's brother as their keyboardist.

[DMCdawg]

The Dismemberment Plan + Carrie Brownstein = win

[BxRadimus]

@DMCdawg I was thinking the exact same thing.

[ThePosiKid]

that drummer is amazing!

[JTHMvolta]

Literally about shit my pants when I heard they were getting together for these shows.

[tightpizza69]

Yesterday's show was awesome!! please never come to Japan again!!!

ありがとうディスメン！！！

[CrossXNightmare]

THE PLAN IS BACK!

[feltgoodfilm]

oh there is a god, or perhaps not but this is a band that gives me hope and maybe thats the same thing.

[WhackassProductions]

[CzsarTheFoe]

[CzsarTheFoe]

Best band on Earth!

[DarianHarman]

God, after so many years, they're still so retardedly perfect.

[SplitSight]

I Just discovered my new favorite band

[kirkmehlin]

See you in Boston tomorrow night Travis! I want to cut off your skin and wear it for my birthday! (j/k bud)

[johnplex706]

[ybrik222]

I love how The Roots play.

Every.

Fucking.

Night.

[doody1414]

Why the hell dont they just go on a nation wide tour.. they got all this hype going now....

[TheWhiteTomatoes]

I love how no one in the stands can figure what the tempo is to clap along.

[josephmarshall]

they look proper buzzing to be back! I'm pretty shocked to hear people caining out the vocal performance. I think he sounds great.

[josephmarshall]

they look proper buzzing to be back!

[lilwave123]

Wow I got into that. Thanks Patrick Stump! :)

[jeetsmuse]

Looks like Travis Morrison is back to enjoying music after a tough decade in his musical career.

[ecfan]

WTF, the vocal performance is awful and I'm one of their big fans. I have tickets to 3 of their shows. It seems the singer is not singing but is reciting the lyrics hope the shows are not like this.

[Dorgon]

@ecfan That's his vocal style; always has been. What's weird is that this surprises you. Even the album version sounds like this.

[ecfan]

@Dorgon I have listened to Emergency & I and Change many times, on those albums his voice on songs are recited but they have a rhythm to it and sounds like a singing voice. But here there is no rhythm, it's like when a bad actor reads his lines and does not put any emotions into them. Here is the same way. The album recital of the lyrics sounds like it is coming from a singer. Here, the recital of lyrics sounds like coming from a random guy from a street.

[HomebrewMelvin]

@ecfan you have smoked yourself retarded.

[ecfan]

@Dorgon I saw 3 shows of them(Philly & NY) and I stand by my statement. The concerts were awesome. The vocal performance on Jimmy Fallon was abysmal. Thankfully, at the concerts they were in their old glorious form.

[Astroknot3]

I just heard the song for the first time when they performed this last night on the Jimmy Fallon show. Fantastic performance! This song really woke me up. There needs to be more music like this, everywhere.

[thepushpull]

This song would be flippin awesome with a bass, but point gets across via keys regardless, nice and groovey!

[optimustine]

@thepushpull

I believe this is identical to the recording.

[TheWhiteTomatoes]

God this is so important because there is NO GOOD LIVE FOOTAGE OF THIS SONG!!!

[ShwangShwinga]

Can't wait to see them in Philly, I couldn't be happier about this reunion. Their Fallon performance was excellent, you should check out the bonus online show they did for "What Do You Want Me To Say?" This band is reissuing the best album ever.

[yrureadingthisname]

YESSS!

[shrew972]

rich stuff!

[rogatube]

Good.  So good.

[Brambleiah]

Oh man! So good! I hope they tour!!!

[faketrout]

@Brambleiah Tour sold out in 10 minutes back in November.
