  • Dragonforce is BA!!!!

  • @kanxa1996 Actually, if you look up the tabs, a lot of the music is really simple, just fast tempo.

  • This sounded actually pretty good, so the only thing i hate about dragonforce is that, by a joke or not, they say that they are better than others, way too proud of themselves.

  • @Worzx They have never said they are better than anyone. Find me an interview or anything that shows they said that .. and ill admit im wrong.

  • @lfcbenitez123 not sure about ''better than others'' but they have said that they are the best. thats an aspect that i hate about some bands.

  • @Worzx Ermm .. they have never ever said that buddy .. and i have read alot of interviews with the band. Find me a interview or a video where they said they were the best. 

  • @lfcbenitez123 Okay i have to admit now that i was wrong, the only thing i heard them say was ''We're the coolest'' and ''there is nothing cooler than dragonforce'' (watch?v=iCEX1WRbIHs) but that ''attitude'' was something that got me thinking that way. and now that i think what they said, its nothing that bad.. but don't get me wrong, i love this band, they are AWESOME in studio AND live.

  • @Worzx Without even clicking the link you provided i know its the download festival video :P but yeah .. they are just kidding .. glad you realise that :)

  • LMAO! Where's the lead guitar guys!? Oh that's right, you can't play it because you fucking suck.

  • @flash8246 You're better I assume?

  • jesus christ when the solos kicked in my heart dropped =/

    im sorry but that was just terrible.. they're trying to play 110% when they can only pull off 80%....

  • Guitar Hero 3 and all its gay little nerds ruined this song =/

  • Gayest lyrics ever.

  • @xDaMaGePlanxx Gayest comment ever.

  • i wish that this concert was recorded with good equipment, the person who recorded it used a phone or a camera, which is why people think dragonforce sucks live, but they played amazing in this concert, it would of been great if this was recorded with whatever equipment they use in concerts

  • @RockFan9927 It was recorded using a JVC Everio Z series. It isn't HD but did the job. You can now buy HD cams at the price I paid for this one - what a difference a year makes. I'm not a pro, so don't have professional equipment.

    However, my recordings are the best available of this gig, so like it or lump it :) I'm not a professional, simply a fan who had a bloody sore arm the day after.

  • Aww, a year ago I had a chance to see them live in a festival, but my friends didn't want to go that day 'cause they were like only interesting band then. Never saw them with ZP and will never see them with ZP :(.

  • Probably da best dragonforce song ever

  • They sound live just like in gh3.

    i dont know why everybody is trashing on them.

  • @CrazyRoflKid Because everyone saw the grasspop 06 vid and they think that dragonforce plays that way in all their shows. I honestly disagree, they have improved a lot, suck that ZP left :'(

  • I think that the singer always say "stop" before the fast guitar intro

    'cause he know that the japnese guy(guitarist) should drop yhe acoustic guitar and bring the electric one

    Ive seen thie in an other video

    so Dont u think??

  • @Realmetalriffs That's exactly why they do it :) It's all good though.

  • @kancherito33 you dont have to curse, ignorant dumbass.

  • Comment removed

  • @kancherito33 kiss my ass asshole

    I think I know his fucking name well . and why dont you mind your own godamn buisness jerk?

    such morrans like you should be executed and a band like Dragonforce should not have such idiot fans like you

    I wouldnt call you a fan ...

  • Comment removed

  • @kancherito33 Not a fan ha?and why the fuck puting your nose on others buisness?

    i wish i could meet you ; ill rip your fucking balls up, stuck 'em down your throat jerk........

  • Comment removed

  • @kancherito33 I can tell this jerk ,, Im japanese from Okinawa

    and Herman is English with Chinese origine

    Check this in Wikipedia pussy

  • Okay, first things first, great video, good quality and sound :) Second, Im assuming all the haters on this video saying "Dragonforce can't play live" can play a better live performance themselves?

  • Seriously, how can anyone say that 5:55 to like 6:25 sounds good at all? The guitars sound like they are playing random shit off tempo.

  • @Firecrotch6979 I'll be fair with you, I just jumped to there and you're right.

    However, I think that's due to my recording - When I was there, it was fantastic, could hear the bass/drums a lot better and it blended well :p

    Either that or they had a wee fuck up @)

  • Dragonforce need to do a studio album made up of the live versions of their songs. TBH, I like this version better than the one on Inhuman Rampage

  • I had some idea that the hater problem had blown over, given that these idiots never post on AeonOfOblivion's stuff.

    I can remember watching this 2 Novembers ago right before my first DF show and not knowing what to expect when I went there.

    I was blown away.

    The energy that DF plays with live is unmatched by anything I've ever seen before. Technically, they were on the spot too. There wasn't a single guy in the crowd who had a bad time there.

    Makes me wonder why haters are still around.

  • @IamTheLandolfo Because they fake everything. That's why.

  • @Firecrotch6979 More of you idiots again. I love how you gave no reason and ignored the musikmesse recordings where they've been totally solid, as well as any from 2009-2010.

    You clearly hate them. You also seem determined to make things up to reinforce this idea. The haters made the "faking" thing up because they're over-sensitive purist assholes. I've seen DF twice, and they were fantastic and solid each time. Don't ever act like you know more than me about them, because trust me, you don't.

  • @IamTheLandolfo @IamTheLandolfo Hahaha Really? I don't ever want to know about them because they are trash. Even if they played their instruments like they did in the recordings, they still wouldn't be good. I'm sorry but people wouldn't just make up a "faking" thing if it wasn't true. How many other times do you see people claiming that another band is fake? None. The reason people claim they are fake is because they are.

  • @Firecrotch6979 Thing is though, you ARE an idiot if you honestly believe that they fake it. They wouldn't maintain a year and a half of sold out shows if they faked it. They wouldn't have been nominated for a Grammy award if they faked it. Herman wouldn't have won Metal Hammer's 2009 best shredder award if he faked it.

    People made it up about them because they were an easy target: nerdy, bad live tour in 2006. And seriously, people wouldn't say it if it wasn't true? That's just plain naive.

  • @Firecrotch6979 "I don't ever want to know about them because they are trash".

    The message that this line sends is: I know nothing at all and have know interest in learning because I'm SO close minded that no amount of information or education in the world could ever convince me to change my beliefs.

    If you aren't interested in learning anything, what was the point of ever replying? You'll just make yourself look less and less educated and more like some backward hater following myths.

  • @IamTheLandolfo No, I look less educated because that's what you're trying to do. You're trying to make yourself look smart over the internet. I used to like DragonForce, and I do know plenty about them, but when I found out how bad they are live and how fake most of the music is, I stopped being interested. Get over yourself.

  • @Firecrotch6979 *Sigh*

    They're not fake and they're great live.

    End of.

  • @Firecrotch6979 ironic. I cited several reasons why DF being fake makes no sense, and I wasn't the one who acted all self righteous and posted the first reply, but apparently I'm the one who needs to get over myself?

    I am smart. I've spent years trying to figure out the fakeness thing, but both times I was at their shows, on numerous live videos (ie Graspop 09, Tokyo 09, Musikmesse 2010), and my thoughts about the human nature that drives people to tell lies, I've made my own opinion.

  • @IamTheLandolfo Wow, so you think people are just lying about it because they want to? If that's true why would they choose this band over any other? You don't make sense. The problem with DragonForce is the fact that they play fast and they think that that makes them good, and all of the fans think they are good just because they can play fast.

  • @Firecrotch6979 They'd choose DF over any other because most haters have the idea that DF's popularity stemmed from kids and video games. That's only true in the US, but metal purists hate it. People believe lots of stuff because they want to bro, just look at religion.

    They don't think it makes them good. Herman's said numerous times that variety in musicality and speed is the key, not just straight up speed. He showed that when he wrote Disciples of Babylon, and the unusual solo bridge in it.

  • @Firecrotch6979 As far as the fan thing goes, I'm just as dismayed sometimes. They're good guitarists, but they're far from the best and they know it.

    The way I see it, fans who think that they're the best guitarists ever simply because of speed are just as brainless as the people who think they're talentless posers, because there's plenty of evidence and ideas opposing both those positions.

  • @IamTheLandolfo And I also wouldn't mind them if they didn't try to put on a show like that on stage, it's way too corny.

  • @IamTheLandolfo By the way, nice insult calling me an idiot, it was really well thought out.

  • people in the crowd need to learn not to sing along to the music if they aren't any good at it... lol good performance, tho. wish i could've heard the REAL vocals! dragonforce rules and whoever thinks they speed up their music is an idiot. live performances almost always sound crappy because they are always either slightly slowed down or sped up and/or the crowd never fricking shuts up!

  • You're an idiot.

  • no hes right

  • lol so many people argue over youtube videos. either way.. they shred... ofoarse its gona be different to the studio version. who really cares

  • lol ZP " We stand with are cocks in are hands" haha he changes all the time XD

  • wow whats with the trolls on this video dragonforce are amazing if you dont think they are good then why search for thier videos and start acting like retards and talking shit saying their bad? they obviously aint bad they are one of the best speed metal bands going.

    people that talk shit like to embarras themselves then millions of people love dragonforce

  • @sixthsnipe Wow, I can't believe how many people are really falling for this. They fake their music, just listen to how bad Herman Li is live... Come on, how can you guys be that stupid. By the way, I only searched for it to laugh at it because it's funny how bad they are live.

  • I would have to say dragon force i a clear example of why real bands dont use computers to soup up their sound. This sounds like shit compared to their album. Next time they should try to compose something they can actually play.

  • @jonahoberloh So true.

  • it sounds crappy

  • lol sam....playin one fret too high. Shit happens and yo gotta go with it. Cant say "oops, let me re-do that" playing live hehe. Saw them in September...almost perfect show.

  • dude ive seen them play live recently they play it perfectly. they obviously can fucking play it. DForce is amazing dude and Throught the fire and flames is one of their best songs, but there are parts of some of their songs that are crazier dude. Herman Li and Sam Totman are the real deal, theyre great guitarists

  • shut up .

  • shut up .

  • wow in their solos live they dont even play on the right frets they just play in the same finger patterns lol DF SUCKS BALLS

  • You're an idiot...

    You can tune a guitar differently and therefore have to play on different frets... Most live bands drop it down a notch to save the vocalist.

    So every band sucks and can't play, in your books.

  • not just that but they also skip the parts of the solos they dont feel like playing. just listen to the song

  • how much time did you listen the full version.none.maybe.the video isnt the full version so you cant tell

  • sorry to say man but he's right, the other guitarist (not herman ) does play the same pattern on the wrong frets, but hey, its live

  • no, the are making an harmonization or maybe you think that because herman li have 20 frets and sam have 22.

  • no, he just plays the wrong frets

  • @ImpThaW If he was actually as good as they portray him, he wouldn't be hitting the wrong frets.

  • duuude its for the video style doesnt mean they cant play it

  • WOAHHHHHH your knowledge of basic musical theory surpasses everybody else's in the history of ever....take it from a musician with years of ex[erience AND who was at THIS VERY GIG, he's playin the HARMONY to what the 1st lead (herman) is playin...honestly dude....BASIC MUSIC THEORY

  • @guitarfreak661 are you like arrogant or something? listen to the studio album, at this gig he plays the pattern right but on the wrong frets newb... dont tell me what a damn harmony is , i just say that he plays the wrong frets smartass

  • @chris4laura Yeah, you're right, they do, but DragonForce fakes their guitar solos and half of everything else except the synthesizer and the vocals. All the guitars do in the song is play half assed licks and powerchords if you watch them. Any real guitarist can see how bad they are.

  • what dies muse have to do with dragonforce muse isnteven all that complex... id like to see museplay anythin half as hammered as df!

  • LIVEFORCE FTW!!! That show looks soo awesome. Shame I couldn't go even though I live in belfast :(

  • omg they rock so much !^^

  • how come herman is playing an acoustic guitar?

  • is he playing an acoustic?

  • terrible..

  • studioforce, oh lawdy

  • Liveforce, oh lawdy

    :)

  • wtf? 1:25 i think some one threw something!!!

  • Muse?

    Lol.

  • Go Search Muse Live.

    lol.

  • Yes I've heard Muse are good live, although not my cup of tea of a band.

    However, you're comparing Muse to Dragonforce? Why not compare Dragonforce to the Jonas Brothers while you're at it?

  • Dragon Force > Jonas Brothers.

    Happy?

  • Ecstatic.

    My point is that they are two different bands who play radically different styles of music - DF is power metal, Muse is... rock I suppose? The comparrison can't really be matched, unless Muse play a seriously fast and complicated song, or unless DF does a much slower, basic song.

    Muse are also a worldwide mainstream band who can afford to do big shows @)

  • i like muse and love dragonforce, but you sound pretty ignorant saying df is really complex and muse is simple

    i play guitar and i can say from experience that there are plenty of muse songs that are more difficult on guitar than dragonforce songs

    i agree, the two arent comparable, but you shouldnt talk as if dragonforce is at all more technical; theyre both great bands and artists

  • With 500 characters to use and attempting to cram many points into one comment, it's difficult to get the complete answer out.

    I know Muse has the odd complicated song (I'll admit, I'm not a fan - They're a bit boring for me :P) but I don't doubt their talent and abilities. I feel however that Dragonforce is more intense and more complicated - I'm not a guitarist, but I can appreciate the skill it takes to do what they do (both bands - Not just DF).

  • Or you can shut the hell up and get off the video if you don't like it? (not trying to be mean but really.....I don't want to go through tons of pages of arguments in the comments on every Dragonforce video"

  • Screaming? Right there you lost me.

    Considering speed is part of Dragonforce, it's essential to their genre. If they weren't fast (and melodic at the same time) then they wouldn't be as popular (Not within the power metal fanbase anyway).

  • And as I finished that, I saw that again it was going to leave a sour note on Muse. I simply don't think they're comparable in any way, so really should not be discussed otherwise we will end up offending someone. Different bands, different styles - Both talented and successful and put on great shows.

    Sounds fair to me.

  • i agree

  • Wait, are you trying to say that The Jonas Brothers are better than Dragonforce?

  • NO!

  • Oh, good lol. hate the Jonas Brothers

  • This was so much better than they used to be. Holy shit. This was incredible.

  • i love the drunk guy what a champ

  • 6:13 what the fuck!?

  • he is imaginating

  • lol

  • eso es una picha

  • ok i used to dis dragonforce but come on dragonforce haters, you gotta admit, THIS was a good performance

  • @KINGLAMBO17 what about the other 70000001 performances they sucked dick at??

  • i love how the whole place was going crazy, and all you can hear is the one fucking guy who sounds drunk off his mind.

    haha, dragonforce fucking rocks. and i was at this show motherfuckers!!!

  • Umm.. Fail? :\

  • no, this was a compliment to dragonforce for actually playing it well and a diss to teh camera man.

    the people who gave me -'s are jackasses

  • You were actually writing ONLINE ROLEPLAYING... -.-...

    You know... That's sad.

  • Very little voice left, was hoarse from Turisas let alone DF.

    And sorry for singing along to one of my favourite bands... And recording them in all their glory.

    I'll remember to sing louder next time - Just for you!

  • Damn you for being entertained and not just recording this show for our benefit!

    Seriously though, thanks a lot.

  • not as fast as the original!!!!!!!

  • you gotta admit, they are pretty talented considering that its an acoustic guitar this time instead of keyboard.

  • The acoustic intro is much more epic than just the keyboard intro =) Fucking Rock On Dragonforce !!

  • if dragonforce song is a shit why did you waste your precious time in here?fuck all haters!!!!!!!!DRAGONFORCE FOREVER!

  • I can't agree with you more, DRAGONFORCE ROCKS!!!

  • dragonforce is great.....when they are not live... then it jus sounds terrible they are getting better at live shows but they got a long way to go

  • Are you all fucking deaf? they nailed it live here! =D

  • i couldnt blame them for sucking live cuz the guitars are difficult to play and the voice is really high pitched so yea u get my point but thy r making progress in becoming better live just look back then to now

  • hahahah! herman lie is flicking you off with his strumming handXD

  • flipping you off -_-

  • Dragonforce are amazing live.

  • Obviously deaf.

  • You're only saying they sounded horrible because you don' like them.

  • no the honest truth was i was looking forward to seeing them at the show

    and they sounded horrible

  • ok someone told me that herman used an acoustic guitar for the intro and i didnt believe them but now i do and that was pretty sweet

  • they live are getting better!DF ROCKS 4EVER!!!

  • i thought thats the best ive seen them play tbh, great vid btw :)

  • thank you for not having a camera phone because this is the sex

  • these guys are awesome! years from now they'll have an entire guitar hero game based on them, just like aerosmith and metallica.

  • And then they are on MTV in the news on the TV

    and everywhere. When this time is come theyre not longer METAL. Theyre are only famous like Slipknot. Get more and more haters like Slipknot.

    I hope Dragonforce dont do that!!!!!

    And when they doing that they lost one fan!!!

  • i really dont think DF is effected at all by the media. theyre to...dragonforce to even give a fuck about what everyone says about them.

  • they are to good to become some shitty band like that slipknot has everything under control too they are also very good

  • then if they'd lose a fan for that then you are not a fan at all... you are just someone who believes it is "cool" to only like bands that don't get publicity...

  • i hope they dont..

  • OMG if they do that would be (sic)

  • ZP theart sounds so shit live.

  • I'm pretty sure that ZP writes all the lyrics, though, and those are generally the only real distinguishing features of DragonForce songs.

  • They're alright when their not drunk. Sam's solo sounded horrible tho.

  • sam is a particulary shitty guitarist :S

  • wow this is probably one of the only GOOD QUALITY dragonforce concerts....

  • Still better than you. :)

  • i can't play that at guitare

    but they can't too XD

  • Doesn't matter. You can't talk shit about them if you can't play as well as them.

  • It would help if you learnt english maybey?

  • learn to shut your mouth

  • omfg wow i just pissed my pants

  • I have nothing (personally) against haters. But their childish acts are making me freakin' sick! This is an awesome performance of a song said "NOT" been able to play live. But what did they do, MASTER IT!

    So haters, go somewhere else to plant your shit! You don't see me going on your Death Metal or My Chemical Romance and post shit about them.

  • Dragonforce - Through Belfast Mandela Hall and High Quality

  • suprisingly Dragonforce can actually play there songs live now xD

  • thats the first time i've ever seen them use a guitar for the intro, sounds way better, their getting really good

  • apparently they fired their old sound engineer who was causing all the problems

  • thanks for sharing! they are amazing!

  • did they do an encore?

  • This was their encore lol.

  • Yeah, Did He Just Say "Now We Stand With Our Crotch In Our Hands" At 6:12 And Basically Hold His Crotch?

    xD

  • "Now we stand with our cocks in our hands"

    ^_^

  • (RE:chris4laura "Now we stand with our cocks in our hands")

    Well That's Not Strange At All.

  • Not at all :D

    Quite common for a lot of youtubers :P

  • Huh, saw a few vids of them live previously.. actually was very unimpressed. This, however, is waay better. Very impressive performance, in fact. Definitely gained a lot of respect for them here, nice upload.

  • Good, I'm glad :)

  • Wow the guitarr players where much better lve than i thought but still vocalist is kinda worthless live. can be all the ppl in the crowd singing but i will see them live on metaltown will make up my mind about theyr live preformance after that. maybe a litle more show i the live shows would higher the preformance. ^^

  • Really? I think ZP is amazing live - He has to hit some pretty high notes and kicks ass :D But see them yourself and draw your own conclusions - I don't think I'll be surprised ;)

  • "now here we stand with our crotch in our hands"
