it isnt just this show that the crowd doesn't do anything. its every lightning bolt show. because the fans suck because the music sucks because the band sucks.

@mkbarron So glad you stopped by this video then, superfan.

[mkbarron]

@32BPS yeah sorry man i know i'm being a hater but my friends who are lightning bolt fans are askin a lot of me to get into this stuff. This is the kind of stuff serious bands play to goof off. same goes for pavement.

[32BPS]

@mkbarron You shouldn't feel like you should get into a band just because friends expect you to.

I play in a band that is two person and we use alot of amps and wear masks. But we dont sound anything like lightning bolt.....so why do i feel so bad about it?

@mkbarron Every LB show I have been to was great. You probably listen to Arcade Fire and would lick the toilet bowl clean fresh under their asses if given the opportunity.

@zofryer yeah. they suck. they still play. and your a moron

[zofryer]

Holy shit. What happened to GWAR?

@CatWalkingOnTwoLegs Someone beat you to that comment by 2 years. But I still think you're a super youtuber. =]

[CatWalkingOnTwoLegs]

lol! at 1:47 the drummer drops one drumstick, and the guitar leans over to get pick up the stick for him. All while the music is still playing xD I wonder if that was an intentional skit

[cheerupemokid777]

@umulamahri; i pull inspiration from a wide variety of genres, and i enjoy this band as much as i do Memphis May Fire, but i agree, there is a lot of crap getting record deals. Why? because right now "hipster" is the trend and hipster music is what sells. obviously any record company that knows this is going to sign a "hipster band". at least until that band is heard mentioned at the local starbucks, in which case it will be deemed "to mainstream" and no longer "hip"

[IMeanPushUps]

bands like this are what inspire me to be better. if you relate this band to the music industry you must be confused, this band is how you say... keep-in it real

[Oloo]

bassist dressed up as robot from flcl makes me so happy
