Vampire Weekend - Oxford Comma - Glastonbury 2008

[JWLOFFICIAL]

When it comes to the chorus, turn the volume to max ;-D

[ellioteaston93]

2:56 drummers shirt says maradona

[latinfenderale]

Sucking is too mainstream for them...

[PantsInTheFamily]

@latinfenderale

LOL

[magdany11]

ILLUMINATI!!!!! THUMBS DOWN DAT SHITT

[TheQotsaRules]

The reason for the diamond is nowt to do with Illuminati (which is nothing more than pure spoof and thinly veiled coincidences). It is to do with the fact that Jay-Z was playing the headline stage that night. Basically everyone who says these guys are Illuminati are idiots.

[SandmanJAAE]

man if the rumors are true and them and lady gaga are part of the illuminati, then the illuminati is one of the most succesfull record industries ever!

[version147]

Can anyone tell me what are the chords for the piano?please answer.thx

[lerpeee]

sabeeeeeeeeh

[justincabell]

Vampire Weekend is in the Illuminati? Time for research.

[MrSuperTevez]

I use Oxford Comma's as the sentence sounds rushed if you dont use them. Ive only just realised this with that guys explanation. *Likes*

[SethAY68]

Does there have to be tacky white trash people at every concert? I figured that if there was a concert to go to where you could escape these people it would be a vampire weekend concert, but I guess I'm wrong.

[acashjericho]

drugs



[theirishclub]

ILLUMINATI?

[The8347135]

@theirishclub BULLSHIT?

[NORMANGODS]

@theirishclub JEW?

[anusial7ka]

i love this song

[Grimmkashi]

Great live performance!!!! I love this band <3

[FarrellMusic]

"look away"

...about that lady

[NORMANGODS]

looks like jimmy carr i guess jimmy carr is just another parasite jew

[luhario]

His voice is so epic in this :O

[3the4truth]

Does the diamond thing signify Vampire Weekends involvement with the illuminati? oh say it ain't so lol

[NORMANGODS]

@3the4truth im afraid it does,they are a jewish band,funny thing is not one person in the crowd knows what it means,sad really

[MelissaBEP]

I don't get the diamond bit

[AdventOctober]

And nobody plays like an American band!

[jimmyguitarman]

@AdventOctober seriously not true. based on the fact your on this video i would assume youre an indie rock fan?

well yeah the indie rock sound is mainly from british bands. only a minority of american based bands can replicate an indie rock sound as good as the english.

i take my hat off for wampire weekend and the strokes and interpol and any other american indie bands.

but seriously. english own indie. america own hard rock

[AdventOctober]

@jimmyguitarman Man you're going too deep lol. Indie rock is probably my least favorite type of music but I mainly like bluegrass and folk and I like british and american folk groups. I was just adding fuel to the fire with the debate of American v. British

[MrSuperTevez]

@jimmyguitarman Too true I agree with you there mate.

[haidbato]

the drummer has a t shirt of maradona....that's funny...

[TakeThatLady94]

ezra looks so cute in here :)

[sumchiya]

[JoeSloss]

Fell the power diamond!<3

[ELLAfizz]

[mfeeley427]

Vampire weekend is from New York... hahah

[nflmj93]

did he just ask those ppl to put their hands up just to see if he could get thousands of ppl to do what he says?

[spidermansupersexy1]

Ok is it my computer? or does it just look like he is just lip singing?

[fattydelicious]

@spidermansupersexy1 Wow what a dumbass. Sound, even if you think is really fast, it takes some time to go across the place. It is just that the mic recording certain angle was somewhat distant.

[spidermansupersexy1]

@fattydelicious fuck you! Im not stupid! I just said it looked like it!... I LOVE YOU EZRA!♥♥♥♥♥♥...

[RingneckDoveFan]

@spidermansupersexy1

It's the video, the sound is off.

[brlog93]

[TheChromeo123]

Haha Chris wears a maradona shirts XD

[javipetrocelli]

[malbobajio]

[duckslolsexy]

I SAW THAT! WHOOO I miss being at glasto... but this is weird, he looks just like the guy in this robot shop i saw in london earlier today! haha, it's not him though because the robot shop guy was english :( unfortunately..

[ryuy4000]

he said that at the concert i saw as well about the diamonds.. The drums come in first though..

[JavaVerdolaga]

In The drummer's shirt is Maradona

[cut3clown]

diamonds he calls it i thought it was the eye pyramid thingy

[rareflorence]

glastonbury and oxegen... damn, i wish i lived in europe, they have the best festivals

[CaptainFlutch]

lol, is he wearing rubber boots ? :-D

[wickedrenthead27]

i want his guitar!

[TheSalesmenBand]

I like Vampire Weekend, Brit festivals, and Oxford comma's.

[krnxb3n]

@TheSalesmenBand what are oxford commas? lol

[songsfromahat]

@krnxb3n my understanding is that an oxford comma is the comma used before the last "and" in a list, for example:

I like pears, apples and bananas. =no oxford comma

I like pears, apples, and bananas. =oxford comma

But I could be completely wrong and really, who gives a fuck about an oxford comma?

[TheSalesmenBand]

@songsfromahat @krnxb3n I have always called the comma before the last 'and' in a sentence a 'serial' comma. Good thing Vampire doesn't know it by this name. ♪♫  "Who gives a f**k about a SERIAL comma?" ♪♫ It just doesn't have the same ring to it.

[krnxb3n]

@songsfromahat LOL i love this song so much more now that i know what an oxford comma is :D

[ikaklitus777]

these guys hase a grate future!

[XxHeyItsEricaxX]

Holy crap, they're good live.

[waterbean05]

God, I love Vampire Weekend.

[kamajutsu]

put the power triangle in the air. it's a beautiful thing. praise lucifer and the illuminati!

[spaceooddity]

they sound GREAT live

[shegwin]

i love how ezra gets everybody to put up the roc, btw i dont think ezra was tryna diss jay or nothin cuz i hear some rap references in a few songs its great. unlike those douchebags of oasis.

[emsx0xx]

ezra koenig is such a babe

[12333996]

Cant wait to see them at in the park this year!

[eportlad17]

nobody does a festival like the english

[mathieugoe]

[juliiius]

@eportlad17

exept Belgian !

[eportlad17]

no, best thing from belgium is marouane fellani :p

[ghandilicious1]

@eportlad17 soz i clicked bad comment, i meant to click good :/ i feel terrible...

[eportlad17]

@ghandilicious1 You should feel terrible, you've damaged me beyond repair :p

[spateeight]

Bullshit. The two best festivals are Oxegen and T in the park.

[mrkmur]

@eportlad17 oxegen was voted the number 1 festival in europe!

[KanGarena]

@eportlad17

watch?v=SrXWC2eZwZ8&feature=re­lated

Watch this movie =)) this is a festival!!

[CaptainFlutch]

@eportlad17 oh yes! - we germans do!!!

[manning6680]

@eportlad17 too right

[sarahbrasil95]

@eportlad17 they're american by the way

[ashklaxon]

@sarahbrasil95 the festival is in england by the way

[sarahbrasil95]

@ashklaxon Yes, I know that.

[WeAreShels1]

@eportlad17 you're a joke, have you never seen oxegen in Ireland? best ever.

[frankieboyleinnit]

@WeAreShels1 - Glasto is the biggest in the world.

[wwwrampagewww]

@eportlad17 I'm not even english, but I can't agree more with you.

[mfeeley427]

@eportlad17 vampire weekend is from new york.....hahah

[iampopcornman]

@mfeeley427 haha he was talking about glastonbury..it's in england pal

[Pagra101]

@eportlad17 nobody does music like the english

[iknowhuh5]

@Pagra101 funny how vampire weekend is an american band huh?

but yeah for the most part i must agree

[PunkR0ck09]

what bass does the bassist use? is it a rickenbacker?

[TheWesleyCotter]

No, I thought that at first as well. It's company called Kustom that made guitars and basses from 64-65 (don't quote me on that) but stuck to just amps after that. They're EXTREMELY rare and sound amazing. I got the chance to place one once and never wanted to stop

[ChoSeNOn3]

idk what the drummers shirt is all i know is that i want it,

[ajesto55]

it's maradona shirt

[latinosloyal]

New album is fuckin epic. Get them back to worthy farm Sir Michael Eavis!!!!

[DRNRforeelizziec]

@latinosloyal They're confirmed!

[dexterwanted]

they must be one of the best live bands going around. so good.

[rightbrigade92]

Ezra doing his best DDP impression. (For all of you WCW fans out there).

[PGL5]

What do DDP and WCW stand for?

[rightbrigade92]

DDP was a pro wrestler who would use the diamond hand symbol (his name stood for Diamond Dallas Paige). it was a nerdy ass joke haha

[FatKidsTurnAround]

its coal

[shygurrl13]

it's coal lol

[cheesepilot29]

Coke!!!! is it not coal?

[theforsakenpiggies]

n-no, it's coal. XD

[ShinMike]

but i like his variation! rofl

[Xiuxiu1121]

Glastonbury!

[jackwills101]

why would you lie about how much Coke you have

[DanielJacksonSg1civ]

does anyone know if they are touring around New York anytime soon?

[xSinkingShipsx]

@DanielJacksonSg1civ yes jan 17, 18, and 19 all sold out

[DanielJacksonSg1civ]

:'(

[gegegerza]

the bass player remindme to paul simonon

[pageseventyfive]

holy shit. This is really impressive. They are AMAZING live here. Hard to do at a fucking outdoor festival. Props

[Rome1414]

then dont listen to the radio...not hard to do at all..especially with that little too youre already using...the internet

[LastShadowKnight]

Yeah! Vampire Weekend Awesome!!!

[johncbat]

haha fuck jay z. what a joke

[fishbonus]

its tha roc

[nirvanaffrvr]

haha did they just put up tha roc?

[botasyespuelas10]

Their look its very cool

[natedogg416]

Unbelievable..sounds like a hard song to sing live but they nailed it and then some.

[joshie3212]

very talented, shame theres not enough of this kinda music around, radio is full of electro shit nowadays!,

[blackochoa64]

dont forget dat damn rap...like lil wayne and T.I....

[zeldanerd22]

@joshie3212 your totaly right man rock on!

[schandmaulrockt]

@joshie3212

fuckin' damn right u r

[kol2402]

vampire!!!<3

[TwigDjango]

Have I missed something? What's with the diamond thing?

[domb07]

im not sure bit might be something to do with the shape of the stage.

[laurenceakaspecktah]

I'm not sure but I think it was because Jay Z was headlining the main stage. Could be wrong.

[laraisthemoon]

yayyy there coming to belsonic (:

im so excited =]

i hope it dsnt rain :'(

[watchedpotneverboils]

That guitar is a Gretch isn't it? Electromatic I think, anyone know?

[flashyguitarist]

epiphone sheraton i think

[watchedpotneverboils]

Oh right, I didn't see big E on the pick guard :)

[Samablama]

the guitar is an epiphone semi hollow, the bass is a rickenbacher.

[cesarpierre]

camiseta do maradonna!! ei baterista, esse gordo não jogou nada, devem existir pelo menos uns10 brasileiros melhores que esse cheirador

[pinktopaz1994]

not really my kinda music but they're alright

[TFOT54]

this is a great song my favorite by this band and yes they are very underated

[kol2402]

great song and a great (underated) band!!!

[billycarmichael4]

eh they're only underrated compared the mainstream radio shit.

[detharmy666]

such a sexy guitar

[freaky917]

[jrkb300]

gee i wouldnt have picked up on the not a fan thing if you didnt mention it at the end.

[rtuzak91]

his voice is amazing, and vampire weekend is INSANELY underrated. they are releasing a new album soon and it's gonna be epic.

:( not a fan of chrismorgan93

[Denisewoei]

Do you know exactly when the new album comes?

[JackDMC]

John Peel R.I.P.

[PhillyFlyers8]

if you look away you apparently dont hear the strong language

[pdaervo]

:)

[djcostigan]

not a huge fan of this band, but ive seen them a few times, and they always sound great live

[mexicanvogue]

WTF?, but still cute

[adamskiyo]

A bit of a misunderstanding with the diamond thing and the drums?

[rtuzak91]

haha i thought so too....

[George5man]

woaaaah

[kdoctor]

2:50 sorry

[awesomefrankrapid]

lol green bottle got him full on in the back of the head.

[kdoctor]

2:57 that lad get nailed with a bottle hahaha

[ilovemutemath]

[Neilli55]

[GiantsTom11]

0.25 - hand sign fail.

[peacefrog9402]
