*Watch in HIGH DEFINITION*

Opening act of the NIN|JA tour, Street Sweeper Social Club gets the crowd hyped. Most weren't expecting much of anything, in fact many didn't even make it for their performance. SSSC, however, made everyone there stand up and take note, they rocked the fuggout!

Performance was at the Starlight Theatre, Kansas City, MO, on 5.27.09.

  • @avengedsevenfoldzzz That bald guitarist has got more talent in his pinky finger than avengedsevenfold combined.

  • Its really incredible sometimes the sounds morello can make. many of the sounds from "paper planes" were not made by a guitar and not meant to be made by one, but he can do it.

  • @BobDawg173 And thats why youre an idiot. There is a lot more than just the sample. Vocal melody and vocal beats are very important my ignorant friend. And not only that but also the arrangement and the chorus.

  • @KurtCobainof21 The original is not miles better. It sucks compared to this. Without the lyrics you are just left with the clash and a few samples. That's not the original, and I thought you were atheist.

  • @BobDawg173 Thats the whole point im making. Even if you forget the lyrics the original is miles better. I dont even know the lyrics to the song. And ill repeat what I said before, just because something requires more skill doesnt mean its better. God know when youll understand that

  • @KurtCobainof21 it isn't an opinion it's just a simplified statement of what it is. And yes you are putting words into my mouth. You are saying I think its really that bad. Which I don't. I like the lyrics to it but Tom reinvented the song and made it much better by replicating samples with a guitar. There is much more talent in this version than the original

  • @BobDawg173 "Just used samples and had some lady talk over it". Thats a pretty low and stupid opinion of the original. Im not putting words in nobodys mouth. And coming to the point again just because something is harder to sing/play live doesnt make it better. Anything by Sex Pistols is better than anything by Justin Bieber, even though the latter would probably be harder to replicate

  • @KurtCobainof21 I DIDN'T SAY IT WAS BAD!!!! I'm just saying it isn't as good because it took a lot less work. And she didn't play the riff so it's still not her talent. Stop making stuff up about what I think of the song. It's a good song. This is just a million times better.

  • @BobDawg173 Youre quite experienced in talking shit arent you? She didnt "steal" nothing. She has credited The Clash with the riff.The riff is not the only part of the song. And if her version was really that bad, why wouldnt SSSC and Tom Morello cover "Straight to Hell" instead of Paper Planes. Dont you see there is something that youre missing and not the rest of the world? If you cant youre really a stupid fuck

  • @KurtCobainof21 Idiot. You are the fucking moron. I didn't say the original sucks or anything with samples sucks. I watch deadmau5's livestreams all the time I understand that talent lies in songwriting, but when you steal talent from the clash that's different. I don't hate the original. It's just not as good in my opinion. Get your head out of your ass and stop making assumptions.

  • @BobDawg173 You are a fucking moron you know right? Talent doesnt lie only in playing and singing. It also lies in songwriting. If you think any song that uses samples is shit, YOU need to get your facts right. Tom Morellos biggest influences have predominantly been old rap acts such as Public Enemy which you would describe as "Just used samples and had someone talk over". And dont you tell me to listen to promenade, I have every album Morellos ever played on. Get your head outta your ass

  • @DangerD205 Fucking nazi go die. If that's what black people are about then make me a burrito mother fucker.
