[manebombero]

Funny how the two top comments talk about the same thing...

[manebombero]

i love how his guitar chage from sunburst to black at the begining

[ClubDominoEnglish]

Is Craig drunk?

[zergio54]

He no is kurt cobain, buuuu!!! :-(

[thatkidwhoplaysdrums]

the intro was fuked up with the timing.

sik scream at 0:50

[floresarras]

15 guys never smoked marijuana

[laplumper]

@floresarras right... you can only like this if you've smoked marijuana

[emptybluespace]

kurt cobain, are you watching this from up there

[birdman3120]

@MrMeddled Haha well spotted

[abbeypunk34]

I love the vines..^^!

[Nimzi]

@MrMeddled

that was really wierd..

[RAMSEY1987]

i know its cool to not look like you dont give a shit and scream a lot but (and feel free to call me old fashioned) but i would not pay to see these guys live they sound crap. songs are great though and i wish they would come back with some new stuff

[YaaashMichaelScott]

@RAMSEY1987 You might be paying to see a live performance - then again you would prolly only pay to see a lip synched Maddona performance. Your not old fashioned your dead..."Rock and Roll has got to go!" yeah thats the spirit.

[RAMSEY1987]

i know its cool to not look like you shit scream a lot but and feel free to call me old fashioned i would not pay to see these guys live they sound crap. songs are great though and i wish they would come back with some new stuff

[Guitardreams182]

Poor bassist.

[bulletinthewind]

Hmmm....Before he got fat on junk. I was back stage at a festival sho in 2005 and he was wrecked on drugs, vomitting into a portaloo, barely walkin'....minutes later her he was on stage killin' it....still....fat junkie.

[RobbKing9]

@MrMeddled know you , how he has done that?^^

[CexXTovar]

que publico basura

[punkpasta123]

geeze give this kid some adderall

[TheTrent08]

I wish i could have seen the vines live back when they were this crazy!

[nachocheese15006]

WTF ???!?!?!??!

he rolled on his back!

which is awsome!!

but the guy next could be like:

" dude what the f***'s ur problem?!?!?

u better not kick me!"

[paulvsusd]

@nachocheese15006 lol - no harm no foul

[Nirvana415]

@MrMeddled Wow good spot, I never would've noticed that!

[GuitarGod2496]

they got that nirvana like vibe

[m4ssee]

@GuitarGod2496

Way better than Nirvana. IMO

[AnarchyGuy6]

what the fuck is wrong with you?

[m4ssee]

@AnarchyGuy6

Why so mad? I just think The Vines is much better band than Nirvana..

[AnarchyGuy6]

I think you're a tool

[JamesL224]

I love people who just don't give a fuck what anyone thinks :') They're trying to promote a record and Craig's falling all over the place and screaming his head off... It's fucking brilliant! :D

[viperchris34]

The future of music will be the love children of Craig Nicholls and Brian Molko

[TheBlackJacksItalia]

lol 0:41 *oh god here he goes again"

[raiden123]

if you guys want to listen to perfect music and no nonsense in it. go fucking listen to orchestras and fuck off

[nickypeeps]

@raiden123 yeah! orchestras suck! fuck you, Beethoven! i bet you NEVER gave people an obnoxious, disappoint performance of songs they enjoy listening to, faggot. this is the 21st century! it's rock and roll to not be able to remotely recreate what you were able to do in a studio, let alone expand upon it and make it even better live, you nerd. ROCK AND ROLL! LOL LOL LMAO LMAO LOL!

yuck

[tibreloaded]

0:33 he looks like Bieber

[EvilTediz597]

I like how the clip begins with a shot of Cedric Bixler-Zavala jumping in the air when At the Drive-In performed there. Legendary performance.

[jacobbirdy128]

@zephranna01 When this video was recorded they had no-idea he had it, it wasnt untill a few years later he was checked out for it.

[tlgu]

You see at 0:40 - Bass player goes: "Oh boy here we go again..."

[mikie144]

Great raw live performance ! This is why you go out to see bands when they give something special back

[jacobbirdy128]

Before you guys slag Craig off for going mad, he suffers from Aspergers Syndrome and can't actually help it.

His studio recorded vocals are absolutely fucking gorgeous though <3

Quality band.

[BIGIFANDYELLOWCARD]

@jacobbirdy128 Thats not what Aspergers Syndrome causes you twat.

[ChristyOB3]

LOLLLL! 

[salamisandwhich101]

his guitar starts off brown and then magically turns black?

[jacobbirdy128]

@salamisandwhich101 Yeah!!! Whats going on there xD

[ClubDominoEnglish]

They are great like the Hives, another great band :)

[5637468]

this was a long time ago hes still nuts but hes learned how to do this alot better lol

[LaFrogs]

There are two takes used. The opening uses one guitar and the rest of the song is with another one. maybe we'll never know the first version

[khrizcommando]

DO YOU WANNA BE LIKE KURT COBAIN? YOU SUCKS! :S

[redwithblackstripes]

the end makes me lmfao , usually you'r waiting for a apocalyptical drum destruction and all but not this time... hahah vines are cool!

[DNBNoisia]

I'm sure they're listening to that opening riff everytime like ok how is he going to fuck up this performace lol? Notice the bassplayer rolls his eyes everytime he has to sing that chorus by himself lol

[Cryptorchild92]

Well, this is the first ever live performance of 'get free' that i've seen where craig doesnt rape the drum kit at the end....

[guitarmaster10012001]

is it just me or is he trying to hard to be like Kurt Cobain

[TheAwesomeRoute]

@guitarmaster10012001 Well actually this is before they found out he had apergers so he still did drugs so personally I just think he was stoned.

[jameyinegypt]

@guitarmaster10012001 Hmm.....



[H0wlinPelleAlmqvist]

lol his shirt says USA, hes from australia, and jools holland is in the UK

[panchomanygonzoman]

the end was to funny move out of californiaaaaa (fomb,silence)

[Angel8795]

gettting them playing this song is like asking craig to lose it

[nevoliabraham]

jajjajajjaja pinche wey que trata de llamar la atencion por eso se cae y se equivoca jajjajajajja

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

@nevoliabraham a huevo xD

[arthvaz]

Not good at all.

[oolooloo]

You can hear the edit at about 18seconds. There's an extra bar added or something and his guitar is different straight after. Nice work BBC...

[lalaken333]

@oolooloo nope, It's actually their fault, Ehhh...The drummer made an accident, The guitar? don't blame craig, this is sorta like the 20- 1st televised performance they did.

[killacam206ickxxx]

STOP SAYING THAT HE TRIED TO BE KURT COBAIN just because some one plays with the passion and obscurity that kurt did doesnt make them nirvana if thats the case then LOTS of bands are carbon copys of nirvana the vines are the shit they actually had the balls to bring hardcore performances to the masses i mean they did the same shit on lettermen for fuck sakes and i dont know how ANYONE could not enjoy watching them play it so energetic  and a pure bliss of insanity

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

@killacam206ickxxx

its beacuse it the truth...he try to fuckin be like cobain

its obviously...see him!....shouts and more things...nicholls is a fuckin copy

[nhanh1992]

@LIBERTINEPARANOIC they used to be a cover band for nirvana, but seriously? just because someone scream doesnt means theyre trying to be someone else idiot. His scream resemble nothing like Kurt, so does his song

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

@nhanh1992 he try to be like cobain...and he think he have attitude..but this is pathetic and embarrasing..sicnerily the viens are a regular band

[agusagus]

@MrMeddled right bro!!, that's quite cheap really!!! i'm disappointed. good observation

[KurtMcGowan]

i like how it just STOPS at the end :)

[tommyx29]

Dude Craigs screaming is freaking AWESOME on this take !!!!!

[westpsmity]

I don't know what all you haters were hearing, but I thought that was awesome.

[kevin171994]

this is true rock n roll so fuck everyone who says this is a bad performance

[mocafester]

uhhhhhh Lovee This!!

lOve craiig! =)

the vines ruless

[zzxxxlll]

this should be in the top ten of worst performances ever

[Pai3000]

I think is cool and powerful. They don´t pretend to be dream theater

[DonnyNoir]

yeah I love there not giving a fuck about anythign attitude

[KillingLies1]

its powerful but for jools holland sucks

[schrottm]

@zzxxxlll yeah...they just don't work live. it's a shame actually, i really like their albums.

[Dunderhead36]

Everybody thought it was crack, but it was Aspergers, yeah, that's real kickass Cobain would've done lol what a twit

[Melleniacon]

@Dunderhead36

No, most people thought it was the sheer ammount of weed he was smoking but that was just bringing out the symptoms of his aspergers.

[killallhumans18]

He has Asperger syndrome. Isn't this just an an Asperger attack?

[thezakkuk]

fuckin awesome performance!!!! Grunge is back :D

[Mudvana]

I'm a struggling musician, one of my biggest influences is Nirvana and i find this embarrassing as fuck...it looks like he's trying to impersonate a bad fucked up version of Cobain, it looks totally fake...he looks like he's shooting a load the whole fucking time haha like wtf people...Cheers

[elborimex]

@Mudvana

Agree

[mindexit07]

the bass player fucking sucks!

[VaNSaNT85]

r u retarded ?? patrick wrote some really good bass lines.. he was probably the most skilled from the band...

[nyboy010101]

not most skilled, but definitely an amazing addition. really sad he left. brad is great but nowhere near as cool as pat.

[BigMaleSpidaProd97]

noo hahah craig is the sucky one

[nyboy010101]

what the fuck are you talking about? you retard.

[goodytwosh0es]

I just love the way he screams.

[interista7878]

Yes, it's almost like Kurt... only NOT.

Fake fanboy fags.

[Rimbaud1531]

LMAO@ a NIRVANA fan calling somebody else a "fanboy". As if Kurt Cobain did ANYTHING groundbreaking.

[mocafester]

WAPO EL NIÑO EHH HANDSOME BOY!!

[fdeckard]

hes getting free

[S2Cband]

fuck you whats wrong with the british

[KurtMcGowan]

OMG i love the way he lets himself go with every performance!!! But the other band members must be so pissed off at him by now

[bchan89]

dont know, i guess craig is what sells them.

never saw any normal performance by him, but i guess thats just the way he is:)

[mocafester]

esto es realmente awesome!! yeahhh

[eonxyu]

That's not bad, it's rock n' fuckin roll.

[alexs1422]

Nah, it was bad

[Buyandsee]

haha that was so bad

[Dougolai]

this is dreadful!!

[ryandsz]

dude this is awesome!!!!

[neilus]

Country Yard, Homesick etc...are the work of an astonishingly gifted young songwriter but his onstage antics are so sad...i wish the boy could just calm down and let his immense talent shine through...

[pb1805]

i think that's beacuse his pathology, the asper syndrome

[0TaperJeanGirl0]

FUCK SAKE, the asperges thing isnt an excuse, dick head its a fact. And, yes they're are not perfect live, but whats so great about being perfect??? Fucking hell this is rock and roll(hopefully you've heard the term) and rock and roll is never perfect...The Vines, well i fucking love them, and Craig is crazy, but i fucking love him too. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. L O V E THIS.

[steya8]

yes you have the voice of the reason =)

[AlXV]

@0TaperJeanGirl0 The Beatles=Percect, The Rolling Stones=Perfect, Jimi Hendrix=Perfect, Led Zeppelin=Perfect, and I can go on and on, you're right the asperges thing is not an excuse, this guy sucks live, I WOULD NEVER pay for seeing a kid screaming around and kicking things like an asshole, he ruined the song, juming around is not an excuse for rock, Kurt used to do some of that stuff too but while he was doing it he souneded great Craig sounds fucking horrible craig is grabage-rock.

[bloodrain744]

has anyone noticed that craig seems more like himself in the live performances of this song than in the actual video??? because in the video you can clearly see him on the verge of losing it at some parts but through the whole thing he sounds all calm and it dont match his attitude. im not saying its a bad video or song or band. im just sayin its kinda weird.

[kittylikescream]

God, Jools Holland is a cunt. Utter tune though.

[harddial]

That Singer is a CLASSIC "FUCKHEAD" if you seen the whole episode hardly anyone clapped that song and the Singer is going c"mon.If you were there you"d put a towel over his head to shut him up...

[peachy901]

he has Aspergers Syndrome you idiot

[TommyMelbs]

Everyone rolls out the Aspergers excuse any time The Vines are criticised for their shitty live performances. The fact is, Craig Nichols is a pathetic live singer. He's still entertaining in little bursts, simply because it is hard to look away as someone destroys their career before your very eyes! But if I paid to see a gig of this shit, I would be asking for a refund.

[peachy901]

thats lie sayin when a schizophrenic person goes a murdors rampage.

"oh no not the schizophrenic thing again"

[HarleyJohansson]

so fucking what?

[peachy901]

cuz that like say "omg that retard can't hear a fucking thing im saying" about a deaf person

[theropingeffect]

Fetal alcohol syndrome.

[ninefootnails]

dam the basist sings like a fag no wonder he left

[dsignrdane]

wow after all these years, this song still rocks

[Zatzzo]

u know seven years actually aint THAT old...

[binxi18]

haha Craig always goes super crazy on jools holland iv noticed - fucking awesome - Jools Holland must be pretty cool seeing as he always had them on his show :]

[julianwelton]

I love The Vines as much as the next guy but do you think his band mates are like "Can you try not to fuck up a performance for ounce?" lol.

[liam21492]

lol they used too actually..in Highly evolved touring and then when patrick left in winning days but now they're used to it :D

[shirkavand]

@julianwelton totally true!!!!

[jonnyBB3B]

@julianwelton lol yer it does seem like that. its like christ hes off again

[Qwertzuiopel]

@julianwelton

yes.

[saladtosser9]

@julianwelton

sadly he actually can't control it

:(

[Fluke1K]

There preformances are good as long as craig doesnt freak out

[davesmith7891]

They're sort of good because he does freak out.

[SleepySlacker4]

haha I agree w/ that, the freak-outs make it more interesting!

[mad6chaiko]

GENIUS

[o0space0o]

fucking ace man whens the album out man need a tour dont we all fell the sameeeeeee. yes.peace x

[BuyYourOwnBombs]

Nutrocker !

Five Stars !

[paesler]

fucking brilliant

[jagfan84]

This guy is certified nuts! Seriously, Craig is mentally ill. Poor fella. Great performance though. Hard to believe he's getting such a nice palm muted tone from a Strat and Marshall too.

[bluerondoo]

guitar nerrd

[jagfan84]

And what's wrong with that? Everyone's gotta be good at something. Not sure what's with all the hate on my original post... Craig actually has Asperger's syndrome, if I remember right.

[Stevebob206]

I think this is the best performance of this song.

[Jarrod169]

0.50-0.52 is the best scream craig has done in my opinion.

its like a death metal scream kinda =D

BUT NOT A PIG SQUEAL!!!!!!

[bridge2121]

i'm gonna get free....seriously...

[epiphonematt]

Three words... Fuck Yah

[austinphillips]
