Rise Against at Reading Festival 2011 - BBC Introducing stage

[lpp39lwvcL]

where is HERO OF WAR ?

[iWILFORDbrimley]

the audience failed so hard with the metronome clap starting around 11:10. thats why you dont get involved unless they tell you to haha

[sk8guns21]

great music they play very well in all styles of music

[JonnysTrickBag]

Love the last album but praying like mad that they play classics like Swing Life Away, Paper Wings and Everchanging at Download this year :D

[EpyKPhail]

RA just develop .. guys their new songs are different but still good !

[ohcrapitsandrew]

I've always dismissed Rise Against as a generic white guy rock band that played every five minutes on alt rock radio (with the exception of Audience of One-I liked that song).

Then I watched this. I much prefer them acoustic

[TheDancingForRain]

@ohcrapitsandrew They're more of a rockband now, but check out their older stuff. Heaven Knows, Paper Wings, Sometimes Selling Out Is Giving Up, Six Ways 'Til Sunday. Those are punk and amazing songs. I much prefer them over the newer work, although I did enjoy Endgame.

[00Powell]

"That's beautiful zack."..."Thankyou Tim" lol

[XMrFabricatorX]

3:24 Zach looks like a serial killer! :O

[Asia94nt]

what about survive?! pff..

[gr33nday4u]

"We play in Rise Agianst." yeah Tim....we know who you are!! fuckin bad ass

[RC4LIF3]

I was at reading watched them on the main staged still gutted i missed them em on this stage! Seen em 3 times though so...

[ollyboy85]

@RC4LIF3 I saw them on the main stage as well and missed this. I've seen them 4 times but this is the only time they've played everchanging! and i missed it

[MegaRemoc]

Tim seems like genuinely one of the nicest people alive

[RisingSun93]

but "Ever Changing"?! :D



[savageZOMBIE043]

three of my favorite songs! then again, what rise against song isn't my favorite?

[bvbcalli09]

please rise against play more acoustic sets and create an acoustic album

[IncestSliver]

is zach wearing rubber boots ? xD

[oGARDENSNAILo]

swing life away was amazing :3

[oGARDENSNAILo]

the unravelling is one of the best RA albums. I'm only 12 but i've been listening to these guys for a couple of years now. They are THE best band ever.

[ZetsubouZolo]

stop that acoustic album shit. I mean yeah I love their acoustic songs but a whole album? are u mad? we're talking bout rise against. meldoc hardcore punkrock.....a whole acoustic album wouldn't be rise against anymore...btw I love it that they still play everchanging <3

[yluna217]

@ZetsubouZolo A Tim solo acoustic album wouldn't be bad at all. Would be amazing..

[ZetsubouZolo]

@yluna217 yeah well if tim would do a solo project doing this I would fucking buy it and masturbate to it! but not as a band I mean that would be odd joe and brandon would be hardly needed.

[yluna217]

@ZetsubouZolo i think that's what people mean by an acoustic album..

He's been touring playing solo acoustic. And it sounds amazing..

[Raymanz]

tim and zach looks like they are having alot of fun.

[rozzag73]

wish they would do an acoustic album. PLEASE......

[IronmAidenthatsy]

I love that voice :)

[609topgun]

swing life away <3

[dragon54326]

"Rise Against - Swing Life Away" at the Song "Audience of One"... :D

[wooly501]

I wondered why there was such a big crowd at BBC Introducing on Friday Afternoon

[ChannelTheBadass]

The Sufferer and the Witness got me into Rise Against, The Unraveling made them my #1 band, and Revolutions Per Minute saved my life.

[ringishpil]

For me, a decade supporting fan of Rise Against, its kinda sad when I see that the fans know Audience of One more than Everchanging. RA fans, don't ever underestimate The Unraveling and Revolutions Per Minute. Those 2 albums are fucking masterpieces released on FAT records. To get to know RA better first start with those two albums and you'll see their maturation.

[RiseAgainstXIII]

@ringishpil my favs are the old stuff... i like their new stuff but i love their old stuff too! fav song is Rumors

[ZetsubouZolo]

@RiseAgainstXIII lol I was thining a few seconds "rumors wtf is there a RA song I don't know yet...?" until I realized u mean rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggurated xDD

[RiseAgainstXIII]

@ZetsubouZolo lol yea i shorten it cus its so long.... and i wud have the same reaction... i listen to every single one i can find ever! so i spend hours looking for diff rise against songs even live covers (if they do any)

[ZetsubouZolo]

@RiseAgainstXIII yeh me too. last one I found was the nirvana cover which was really nice

[RiseAgainstXIII]

@ZetsubouZolo that was epic! i love nirvana and rise and both are great!

[AbelinoG510]

@ringishpil i completely agree with you. its pretty sad to see that no one in the crowd was singing along to everchanging

[00Powell]

@ringishpil they were actually released on Fat Wreck Chords, but yeah, I agree.

[Brewersboy28]

@ringishpil Personally I enjoy Siren Song the most, but RPM is nearly perfect. The Unraveling has some amazing songs. Like....amazing. Alive and Well, Six Ways Til' Sunday, 401 Kill, 1000 Good Intentions, Reception Fades, Everchanging, Gethsemane...okay I'll stop now. :P But anyways, yea you're right those are some damn great albums, I wish newer fans (I've been a fan since around 2010 but I know all their stuff :D) would love these older songs as much as newer stuff!

[calvinio1234]

@ringishpil Phat Wreck Chords, that's my only response.

Those two albums are fantastic though.

[TooManyTekkerz]

also any1 see a mistake at 6:40, pretty sure that not the name of that saong

[TooManyTekkerz]

i was at Reading 2011 and i saw them, but i didnt know they were also playing at the introducing stage later, gutted is an understatement

[stcywll]

I saw a black guy?

[FMminecraft]

Survive was suppose to be on there but i bet the BBC took it out because there was swearing in it :(

[PlasterStash]

1 person had to be a dick.

Soon to be 2.

[BodaciousWickerman]

RISE AGAINST!!!

Awesome band but you already knew that.

[fairaldrood]

tim and zach... bromance much?

[ollyboy85]

:Ooo when did they play on that introducing stage!?!?!!

[Cossfrack]

dam i fuckin missed this!!! what time were they on???

[personperson125]

@Cossfrack Half 6ish on the Friday. Looked liked a last-minute thing

[Cossfrack]

@personperson125 dam, i think i was watching the offspring or deftones.

[petered2g]

6:41, swing life away?, shouldn't that be Audience of One?

[petered2g]

1 dislike, god dammit -.-'

[McMaxwell64]

06:38 well done, BBC.

[greenlightning7117]

haha i like how during 10:10 you hear men singing.. because men like rise against.

[awesomenoob6281]

100th like :D

[SpastnLohee]

<3

[x4AndAgainstx]

nobody can sing along when they are playing everchanging... that's so emberassing

[xR153x4G41N5Tx]

@x4AndAgainstx i did :)

[MrD10de]

@x4AndAgainstx I was there, and I was singing my heart out if it makes you feel better.

[x4AndAgainstx]

@MrD10de yeah, it makes me feel better :)

[BreezeMMX]

nearly hit dislike due to the fact i missed this :/

[willsoe]

Yeah same, I had no idea this was even going on, saw em on the main stage, and wondered why they didn't do any acoustics >:(

[paintingflowersforyu]

Introducing?!

I've known these guys for like, ever!

[Jakeyboy123ty]

Oh Tim loves it ;)

[bigmaks123]

[JooeeeF]

So pissed that i missed this :(

[VipzehVideos]

[WoodxUK]

I was there and had no idea this had happened - this would have made the weekend!!

[Lekvar012]

"...this song is called Swing Life Away"

"AEAEAEEYAAAAAY!" :DD

[StxJimmy1207]

Best Reading moment, and maybe best festival-moment ever <3

[justiceinmurder1]

love my friend larry for showing me this video, bloody love Rise Against <3333

[VipzehVideos]

@justiceinmurder1 love u 2 haha :D, did u get to see theese at reading?

[jackletocq]

Their mainstage performance wasn't really up to their usual standard, clearly they were saving themselves for this

[TobyS692]

0 dislikes --> thats what Rise Against actually deserves. One of the best bands ever xD thumbs up if you agree and wanna keep the 0 dislikes

[MrFerezu]

@TobyS692

Cause the average dislike is 1 on 100, wait till it has about 200 likes :(

[TobyS692]

@MrFerezu yeah i know that...i heard that there could be some people (one at the moment) out there disliking one of the greatest bands xD . Just wanted to express what i think about Rise Against with that comment. Don't take the '0 dislikes' too serious, there'll always be haters ;) greetz

[fairaldrood]

@TobyS692

your wrong mate. they are THE best band ever... :)

[liggipiggi]

saw u guys on the main stage, ur a bunch of stupid cunts commenting on the riots like that, how dare u compare us 2 the fucking rag heads in the arab uprising!!!

[PotatoKillYou]

@liggipiggi You do know they can't hear you right?

[xR153x4G41N5Tx]

@liggipiggi haha lol at you there completly right stuff like that happens all over the world you ass hole not just england

[TelecasterJack1]

Not pleased with BBC's knowledge of Rise Against songs Audience of one is most definitely not Swing Life Away. 6:38

Survive Acoustic was incredible, that needs to get uploaded.

[FoxyMulder90]

@TelecasterJack1 it was uploaded :)

[LegendaryZelda]

@FoxyMulder90 You mean the BBC uploaded it??

[ale15andra]

Tim: That's beautiful Zach!

Zach: Thank you Tim!

awh

[nyjeterss]

@ale15andra he did some amazing harmonizing notes it was quite well XD

[jordanhiley]

lol @ zachs boots

[personperson125]

Rise Against tiwce in one day.... IT WAS AWESOME. They have to make audience of one a regular.

[stjimmy95]

@personperson125 it is o.o lol

[personperson125]

@stjimmy95 I meant the acoustic version...

[stjimmy95]

@personperson125 ah fair enuff :-#

[afiVSblaqkaudio]

so gutted i missed this! offspring were pretty amazing though too

[morson93]

i wish i knew this was happening. as much as i like offspring, i'd have killed to see rise against twice on both sets!

[RockLadybug]

How can Zach not kick? It's surely been very hard for him! :D

[hahahadavidfisher]

Survive was amazing i could see myself singing to swing life away :D lol

[Ohaitharimbert]

were these all the acoustic songs they played? coz i only got there for swing life away as i didnt have a clue it was happening, i just left the dance tent cos i was a bit bored with whoever was on at the time, wondering around for a while and just heard swing life away in the distance, i thought i was trippin' balls rofl but yh i was so gutted i didnt catch the whole set, just wanna no ho much i missed :) so was this all of it?

[Killerbabyseal]

GAH, they had to be on at the same time as the offspring :(

[Conquazar]

though disappointed they cut hero of war i'm glad they didn't cut some others because i missed this on saturday :( i've never heard some of these acoustic sets

[123margie123]

So happy I saw this!! Easily better than there set on main stage.. However bit pissed off that the BBC cut out hero of war

[SionRawks]

So gutted I missed this ;_;

[NURDERSCF]

Hey BBC, please upload the Song "Survive" !

[nahailyenvanakkor]

@NURDERSCF Survive? Acoustic?! I HAVE TO see that, now!

[FluroF5]

So pissed i missed this. ¬¬ Friend wanted to see the offspring instead, ¬¬

[JayOfBurn]

I think I saw myself... this was on the BBC Introducing stage, 30-40 mins after their main stage set. It was amazing...

[loveforlemons]

When did this happen and how did i miss it?!

[Asia94nt]

amazing!

[Siwybac102]
