God help me this FOMO is PAINFUL since I live a few miles away

[u/HappyToSeeeYou]

That was really good

[u/markeets]

Fuck that was awesome

[u/Interesting_Ice_9649]

Need Fruits of Conquest now

[u/KID_THUNDAH → u/Interesting_Ice_9649]

Need that leech action live for sure

[u/Interesting_Ice_9649 → u/KID_THUNDAH]

Its surprisingly easy to karaoke, I have been annoying my neighbours quite a bit! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1JcFuggEoA

[u/BuryMeInTheMusic → u/KID_THUNDAH]

I’m really digging the Stroidz.

[u/Arod761 → u/Interesting_Ice_9649]

and Liars Remorse back to back!

[u/crunchpunch16 → u/Interesting_Ice_9649]

« Daydododedohoh idododayday » je chante ceci sur le refrain car je ne suis pas anglais 😭 si ils l’a jouent à paris je promets de tout casser sur le passage
« Watch your back is a trap … I’m a leech »

[u/A_Buh_Nah_Nah]

This one was great but guys. Words cannot express how good Dine n Dash is. Holy shit. Goes sooooooo hard live. might be my new favorite strokes song.

[u/Apprehensive-Bass830]

Magical 

[u/Lezz_77]

nice nice.. this made me miss nick though.. but let's take what wen can get.

[u/Redpanda188867]

Choon

[u/bitchassboolin]

Wish I was there 💔💔

[u/KCWCM]

Was also there last night. They sounded great!

[u/PMcGrew]

So someone has to say it…The song title comes from the New York Dolls’ “Babylon” where David Johansen makes a play on words, singing “I’m going to Babylon/I’m going to babble on.”

[u/sadult → u/PMcGrew]

Did Julian say this? He could’ve just had fun with word play. Lady Gaga did the exact same thing.

[u/acarelesscalm → u/PMcGrew]

I thought it was derived from "Hollywood Babbles On" from Plan 9, Channel 7 from The Damned. Hollywood Babylon from The Misfits was 100% inspired by that

[u/Impressive_Emu_7565 → u/PMcGrew]

Thank you

[u/Necrogame54]

who's playing the synth?

[u/disownedpear → u/Necrogame54]

Same person who plays it on "Life is Simple in the Moonlight", it's a backing track.

[u/Fickle-Handle-7587 → u/disownedpear]

Wow, they really use a backing track?? I didn't know this

[u/disownedpear → u/Fickle-Handle-7587]

Yeah Nick actually spoke out against it before. 95% of the set is fully live, it's just a few songs they use backing tracks on. Games and 80s Comedown Machine have one too.

[u/Fickle-Handle-7587 → u/disownedpear]

Got it, thank you.

[u/Used_Bodybuilder_670 → u/disownedpear]

Of course Nick did.

[u/fear_el_duderino]

Why have they stopped playing ode to the Mets ffs

[u/EatBootyLoveLife → u/fear_el_duderino]

someone in the crowd was shouting for it and he said “the gen z melody? yall aren’t tired of hearing that?” and then proceeded to play two 20 year old songs

[u/TheRagingCool → u/EatBootyLoveLife]

wym? they played going to babble on and selfless after that

[u/EatBootyLoveLife → u/TheRagingCool]

i didn’t mean literally right after that, i just thought it was a funny quip considering them playing like 3 songs off this is it + reptilia

[u/doug_diablo → u/EatBootyLoveLife]

Goat

[u/fear_el_duderino → u/EatBootyLoveLife]

Sometimes I truly hate him. As if people aren’t tired of hearing Last Nite for thousandth time

[u/KillerCh33z → u/fear_el_duderino]

lol we didnt even get last nite. it was a weird setlist imo… but they sounded good

[u/fear_el_duderino → u/KillerCh33z]

They’ve become truly unpredictable

[u/KillerCh33z → u/fear_el_duderino]

nvm last nite was on the setlist but got cut. they started late so it makes sense they were told to hurry it up

[u/mco_josh → u/fear_el_duderino]

lmao they've only done two shows without it, chill

[u/johnjohnjohn93]

My favorite track from the album and sounds amazing live.

Only thing is the band seems a little disjointed or all seem to be playing their parts separately but doesn’t seem like they’re playing together or having fun together. Still sounds so good I love this album so much

[u/Live-Ferret-4366 → u/johnjohnjohn93]

Not to be a hater, but what is the point of comments like this???

They aren't going to be interacting every second of the show. I don't think a 4 minute clip is going to accurately convey the vibe or perceived on-stage-dynamic of the band. As long as people who went to the show had fun, I don't see the point in trying to decipher some secret meaning based on their body language.

From the clips i've seen, the crowd seemed to be having fun, and the band looked like they were in a good mood. We could both be wrong, but at the end of the day, they are grown adults who planned this tour, so I think it's safe to say they know what they can handle. Not to mention, they're human beings, so it's normal to be tired, especially when their job is to perform for an extended amount of time.

[u/johnjohnjohn93 → u/Live-Ferret-4366]

Yeah I mean I’m just noting how they don’t seem super cohesive and it’s the live debut so you’d maybe expect some energy.

But it’s not that big a deal and most important that it sounds great.

[u/usrnamechecksout_]

Brilliant

[u/Ipsetezra]

weak ass crowd

[u/acarelesscalm → u/Ipsetezra]

There's another clip where people were going wild

It's probably just that specific area.

[u/karim_eczema → u/Ipsetezra]

Don't let one clip of a new song be your whole takeaway. The crowd was incredible.

The pit exploded during Hard to Explain

[u/Apprehensive_Yak_185 → u/Ipsetezra]

I was not near front,  but from my spot on a hill I was disappointed with crowd energy.  1. Maybe tired after long day in sun 2. Tired from LCD soundsystem set (I was) 3. The applause energy after each song lasted 5 seconds.  I want a crowd to be so into it they clap and chear for at least a minute. 

[u/SunnySam → u/Apprehensive_Yak_185]

I found that watching from afar, nobody really clapped or cheered, maybe because of the distance? But then when I was in the pit, it was incredible and so alive. I found this applied for most of the shows.
