Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig! (PlugAwardsPro)

[frankspandrel]

Yeah, great song but shitty playing and/or recording. If there was anything there it didn't come through in this video.

[SaintRussell1914]

Does Cave usually play guitar during live sets?

[chrisnouvelle41]

Yes he has at the last three gigs Ive been at. I have amazing footage of him...photos and video...awesome!

[ChrisABuckley]

this is the worst bad seeds performance I have ever seen

[thesoulbreath]

it was the first gig of the tour, even conway savage isn't there. Anyway I agree with you, but luckily this is just an exception.

[bottomdogman]

Bart loves Kali more than Nick Cave does.

[clauricaune]

for all the people who feel disappointed with this performance: it's no usual thing. just check out Live Seeds or Abattoir Blues Live to get an idea of what these guys can do on stage.

[bennydreadful]

Is this what the lineup is like these days? Im seeing them in october, and was really hoping Mick and Conway are along for the ride.

[Depechexb]

Nick Cave shouldn't sing along on the chorus.. It doesn't sound right

who gives a fuck if he get's the lyrics wrong.. this is pure rock'nroll energy

[We4reLegion]

Pretty rough, enjoyable none the less but yeah, pretty rough.

Credit to him though, I imagine it's a bastard to perform live, lots of lyrics to remember.

[kurtjarram]

he gets a lot of lyrics wrong.

check out "we call upon the author" he's even worse on that one but he manages to recover quite well.

[SeamusBlonde]

His songs have so many lyrics that he's bound to forget a verse or two. One of his new songs, More news from nowhere must be impossible to preform live because it's eight minutes long!

[silverdreamer1889]

amore incommensurabile.

fantastico

[ToombaHeart]

they aren't too hot live are they...oh well lots of bands are like that

[ppjj8]

he plays the violen as a guitar

genius

[tr33s89]

i started listening to nick cave a few days ago...ive been missing out man lol

[Somesinger]

I love seeing this video from the far-range perspective, considering that I was watching the huge camera up on the crane from up high, and was almost as entertained by it as I was by the performance. and the performance was gooood.

[retodd64]

jesus guys...this is raw and amazing and they are still working out the kinks.....in a month this will be tighter than Japanese Woodworking....ease up, ease up...gawd...

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

Anyone know what effect(s) Ellis is using to get that sound?

[EuchridEucrow1]

Well aside from the fact that he's using an electric violin with some pretty heavy distortion, I couldn't tell ya.

There MAY be a tiny bit of delay, as well.

[EuchridEucrow1]

I still think it's great. Uncouth, but Ellis' and Cave's energy carries it over.

[EuchridEucrow1]

I think the two drummers is f_ckin' things up more than anything.

The song's messy enough.

[badseed1964]

He's trying to pull off too much stuff... I love him but the guitar is messing him up more than helping.

[Somesinger]

wrong, wrong, and wrong. this was absolutely incredible. pure rock n roll, baby.

[violentcandy]

This is really off for cave. I saw him live and he was amazing and i love this song but this just doesn't work. His voice isn't working that well.

[EuchridEucrow1]

Oh man, that's sweet.

The only unfortunate thing about this is the background role Mick Harvey's been relegated to.

[NotYourBiggestFan]

That's an omen-like comment
