  • I was 10 years old that day... |:

  • imagine being there *sigh*

  • I've never heard a bad live performance of this song. Period. That's it. I've never seen him give so much to the performance of one song, as much as this one. It's....amazing, to say the least. Obviously a song dear to him. =)

  • @alanihawaii123

    It's about a friend of him who commited suicide. That's probably why he cares so much about this song.

  • Would of love to have seen them in a venue like this! Wish they would play the older stuff more still :(

  • i wish i was 16 then, not now

  • @mindfreak061

    me too!! i'd love to see rise against in a smaller venue!

  • @mindfreak061 Same here... :-(

  • ow i love those old day's and i love undergound punk!

    there you can crowd surf all the time xD

  • this recording is sooo beast

  • My favorite guitarist was chris, but Todd is so bad ass. He's like Zach with his energy but he plays as clean as chris does. I wish I could of been there!!!

  • damn the best version i ever heard fromt this song

  • todd and tim r soo cute, i wish todd was still in the band :)

  • the first time i commented on this video was 3 years ago with my old account. it was the first video i ever commented on because i wanted to say i watch this at least 10 times a week. i haven't stopped watching it 10 times a week. even 3 years later.

  • @WillCrearyRA Haha, i saw your comment like 2 years ago! when the vid had like 4k views or so.

    This is some of the best RA footage there is. Makes you feel you're there..

  • @OsKoH yep. commenting on this video was the reason i made my youtube account

  • Old RA, The Bestttttttttttttttttttttt ^^

  • @mugencool I don't care what timeframe you look at, Rise is always at it's prime :)

  • It seems the less hair the band get as a whole, the less hardcore they become. This set was fucking awesome!

  • I miss the old Rise Against.

  • @RiseAgainst90 me too

  • Comment removed

  • yeah Tim was playing an LTD Guitar there :P

  • He may not be coming down, but that mic sure did.

  • holy shit seriously like one of the craziest punk concerts ive seen man they kick ass!

  • did Rise Against ever play live with their original drummer toni tintari?

  • Damn 2003, when i just started listening to Rise Against.. good times.. Don't get me wrong i still think they are a good band, but back then, when almost no one knew them, these concerts were so special. And i don't like their new album xD

  • awesome!!!

  • man what i would have give to been there!!!

  • Haha get just gies to another mic..... Sniff... He's so coool

  • Todd was incredible

  • Todd has the energy of Zach and the skill of Mr Precision and Chris hands down the fuckin sickest guitarist Rise Against had

  • @punkrocker26960 And why Todd has left / was kicked out form Rise Against?

  • @punkrocker26960 Yeah...

  • @punkrocker26960 yeah i agree. i don;t know what his vocal abilities are compared to chris' and zach's, but i really liked the guitar work on RPM, lots of backwards power chords and other cool shit like that

  • @punkrocker26960 Didn't he get in an argument with the rest of the band? I wish he really came back :/ , and maybe see the first drummer (forgot name).

  • epic

  • holy shit its MR precision

  • @droagan1 no it's not. it's todd mohney. mr precision is only in one rise against youtube video called rise against bootleg or something like that. if you want to listen to him still, you can hear him playing guitar in 88 fingers louie.

  • @droagan1 Mr precision left shortly after the release of the unraveiling in 2001

  • ah god how many times a week do i watch this video?

  • This is definitely my favorite live video ever. Or just video ever lol.

  • Nice mic recovery... @:34

  • I bet he has good friends from this concert...

  • best time in a band is when your playing small clubs like this

  • rise against: the best!!!!!

  • wow this is the best live ra video iv seen....just realised its the same place theres videos of alexisonfire playing, looks like an awesome venue

  • They need a DVD of Rise Against live in the punk days. This is the best I've ever heard them! :)

  • I miss the days when you could stage dive @ rise against shows...

  • man i would give everything to be at such a show without that barriers and safety shit nowadays.. luv it *.*

  • Rise Against is so good live

  • @YourLocalVillain they used to be so good live, now things have changed

  • Brilliant performance, awesome crowd.

  • about 2:20 in tim nods a "thanks" to the roadie who fixes his mic. he's got class.

  • @WillCreary Loved that too.

  • This=no suck new=suck!

  • agreed 1000%

  • well... i hate when all the fucking awesome groups, do a ''different'' music while they are ''growing'', because all my favorite groups always change their music to a ''softer'' music... Even if rise against changes i still love em, that's the way i have tattoed the heart and the handle of rise against in my arm :)

  • Yeah,,

    Rise is insane *-*

  • He's jumping into the crowd. lmfao is right /snore

  • LMFAO!!!! WATCH 1:25 BEHIND TIM... wtf is that kid doing?

  • I dont know i heard of them when tim was doing the side project The Killing Tree so everything is soft compared to that, but overall no they havent gone soft its just not the same genre.

  • you know theres live TKT stuff on youtube now?

  • Dammmmnnnn!

    They have the best fans!

  • I love this vid. Its inspirational. Also I pause it at 1:24 every time haha. Tim looks angry.

  • Errr for all of you saying that theyre not as good now, and that tim doesnt scream anymore, listen to their 2009 stuff. If you do you'll see my point.

  • but thats only like 3 or 4 songs, people are right in saying they have gone alot softer

  • No, there isnt. But they are still amazing. The fact theyve gone A BIT softer doesnt make them worse, just different.

  • so how many aongs have they released in 2009? theyve gone alot softer and they have changed alot

  • 2 I Think on an ep. Im not saying thay havnt changed but so what if they have, teir new stuff is still amazing, not to mention all of the covers theyre doing.

  • i dont quite understand in the first reply why you said 'no, there isnt' coz i thought that was replying to me saying they had released about 4 songs, coz i know they have released voice of dissent, death blossoms, grammatizator n i dno wt else but every1 is alowed their own opinion, most of the people who liked rise agaist for their older stuf think that they have changed alot and i think their new stuf is nowhere near as good as the old stuff, i dont mind it, but RPM and the unraveling is best

  • Ohh, I didnt realise they'd released death blossoms. And yeh i agree those 2 albims were AMAZING, but their new stuff isnt exactly bad, is it.

  • completely agree

  • damn why you arguing about rise against songs...theyre all good. I for myself i became when fan with sufferer and the wittnes but i like the old stuff,too. ok they changed but hey i dont give a fuck cause rise against is a damn good band..and every album was good...so pls dont argue that they´ve changed imo this doesnt make sense wetheter you like the band or you dont like the band...fin!(sry for bad english im german!)

  • 0:33 It took me a while to realize that Tim dropped his mic! I always wondered why he stole Joes.

  • hahahaha i didnt notice that either

  • When he looks down after it falls he's thinking "Oh shit." Haha.

  • I know i think that every time too.

  • rpm is their best album in my opinion... like all of em... i dont really like the unravelling though apart from a few songs

  • This can´t be described with words..

    I really like The sufferer & the witness and Appeal to reason but they are nothing compared to Rpm and Ssotcc

  • this concert is so awesome that even chuck norris came to see it!

  • @Riseagainst4everbaby Nah, if Chuck Norris saw this concert, the resultant erection would be enough to wipe out everyone else in the room.

  • @Riseagainst4everbaby actually chuck wrote the lyrics...

  • @Riseagainst4everbaby Fuck Chuck Norris, He wasnt invited!

  • This is my favourate video of all on Tube

    Its great and I so wish I was at this gig, lol

  • this is one of my favorite rise against concerts iv been to

  • bardon barnes is awesome noob

  • dan precision tops them all. todd = close second

  • Comment removed

  • Glad to hear I'm not the only one who really doesn't like Zach Blair. I don't even know why, but I can't stand him, especially live.

  • ya he bugs me

  • Todd Mohney is such a fantastic punk guitarist, as is Tim

  • this is some legendary fucking stuff!

  • would have fucking loved to have been at this show... i miss the old rise against so much. they need to go back to this sort of shit. zach blair completely ruined them. tim's vocals are still there, but the guitar just doesnt go with it nowadays.

  • I know, me and my brother think the same way. If they kept Chris Chasse they would've been excellent. But yeah, I would love to be at one of these small shows!

  • i actually like todd mohney's work better than chris chasse's, but they were both pretty good. i just dont like zach blair.

  • Totally agree.

  • I miss this Rise Against

  • tim looks so different there to what he does now. He looks a helluva lot younger there. The whole band have changed so much since then. I mean they're still amazing but its like hard to believe that this was them like 6 years ago...

  • Damn...this is the Rise Against I miss :(

    When Tim wasn't afraid to scream his heart out.

    Not this new shit they got going on (yea it's still good but it's a shame to still call them Rise Against...)

  • thats messed up man

  • no its not messed up, have you heard their last album? since they became more mainstream he kinda stopped hopefully it goes to back to oldish Rise Against, i love all the albums but appeal to reason is alright

  • ya appeal to reason does kinda suck. THis album revolutions per minute and the unraveling were really good. New rise against is decent and that is pretty much it

  • don't be so harsh on appeal to reason, whilst the intensity may have died off a bit, the same powerful lyrics are still there. Plus its still better then most

    That being said I really fear the RPM Rise Against may be dead due to age, still as long as they play the classics on tour ill be happy

  • funny RPM was before Siren Song...basically saying that this CD was good

  • Yes RPM was a good cd, I was pretty much saying everything up to SSotCC was good, then they took their music into the wrong direction.

  • No they aren't dead due to age. At a concert I was at, Tim screamed State of the Union (yes I know its not RPM but still it makes my point) so effortlessly. It looked to take no more effort than talking. Seriously.

  • I was at a show recently as well, and state of the union was pretty amazing, same with blood to bleed (although its not my fav). Point is hes still got the voice

  • i went to hamburg new york on july 30th... tim screamed DEAD RINGER! everyone in the room shit themselves. the band is just as good now as it was back then. i think zach blair sort of made them more main stream though.

  • I agree with you. Except I would also put Siren Song of the Counter Culture in with those two albums. Its probably my favorite.

  • shit thats good audio...

  • Tim is the better frontman ever! RA rules

  • he was the only one ever in Rise Against o.O i think you mean he is the best frontman of all bands in your opinion

  • oh, man love this video so funny at all the crowd running on the stage... favourited this man, thank you for adding so much

  • dooooooood.... i reallly hope they do this song tomorrow night!!!!

    lol @ this video, look how small the place looks, they're just like so layd back and the guy just like crowd surfs in front of him ahhh, man why did he cut his hair, looked hell good long lol

  • appeal to reason was increadible

    but i honestly want another cd like revolutions!!!!

  • Man i miss tim's old vocals

  • awsome band wish i was fucking there

  • I wish I was at this show. I live for shows like this. Where everyone loves the band and knows every single word, shouting at the top of their lungs. Damn, I love it.

  • lol...at :030,,,how he looks wehen the mic is falling down^^

  • RISE AGAINST ! :D

  • God yes would love to be there:P when to they come to sweden?:D

  • gotta be one of my top 3 fav songs from them....wish i was there ;/

  • What the hell did you just say?

  • wait so u mean its fun to make music or what..

  • come on...i have never read something that's more stupid than this.

    you can make music with a guitar? and rise against make music with a guitar? i didn't know this 'til you came and wrote this.

    ooh...and this is meant to be ironic. just for the fact that you don't understand it.

  • its true

    a guitar in a band is good

  • Freaking awesome

  • I would love to be in that crowd...looks like an amazing show.

  • my fav. song from them

  • thank god for rise against

  • hahaha. Tims mic fell off the stand =P  =D

  • wow

    rise against is so much better live than a lot of bands =D

  • damn rise against plays so good live...thats what seperates them from a lot of other bands....all mainstream bands suck live basically.....rise against is one of them best live bands ever

  • Is Todd still playing guitar with them here?

  • Yes. That is Todd.

  • This is OOOLLLDDD lolllll

  • i just moved to corona, close to chian but i wish i could she them b4 they got popular. so the show would be this intense
