Love these boys music, seen them live and met them personally in a bar before. top musos
i didn’t expect most of the crowd to be middle aged people. i better not be the only fan who’s in early 20s.
tnite at millennium
the best band to ever come out of chicago…
@JinjaB123 Tortoise is a melodic and beautiful ambient musical group. Slipknot sounds good for metal. Different color horse.
Vibes are much too loud in the mix, and he’s rushing a bit
20:03 BEAUTIFUL
Also, did anyone else notice that their guitar and bass look identical? how awesome
I have no idea why the word Slipknot is being used on the comments of a holy video…
jk. But 1. They’re not even comparable and 2. Tortoise is actually talented and well trained musicians.
Simply amazing. I am in awe of this band.
Stop the shit Slipknot his powerful and tortoise beautiful they are all great.
One of those bands that you always kinda think might just be pretentious over-production. Until you see them live. And then you’re blown away and buzzing for days. One of the few bands pushing music forwards.
theirs this cool jazzy extra jazzy song online called “ass rape sigurspeed!”
andy from the office on vibraphone.
@JinjaB123 who the fuck is comparing slipknot to tortoise
3:40 It’s a me, Mario! Woo hoo!
Wow I just found out about these guys yesterday, and I wish I had known what I was missing out on.
one of my favorite bands – and this is a really great performance. Also, why are any of you people talking about slipknot? I’d really like an answer.
@JinjaB123 they are both bands consisting of several members, both use instruments, both bands are from america, both have performed all over the world, both make a living with their music, both are extreme in their music. Hey that wasn’t so hard? ……… but i think comparing your face to my ass would even be easier. Actually it’d be useless, theyre rather identical…
@Barbosa123 Why not? i dont like slipknot but it’s still better than 80% of the shit out there…. And hey, if there wasnt anything you disliked there wouldnt be anything you liked right? so thank slipknot for existing, helping you appreciate this
U R my weed buddy from this point on….cheers
i love FRIDGE
@phishinvan to be fair, I said they were never THIS interesting. Don’t get me started, yes Iv’e heard a bunch of the dick’s picks and other bootleg shit from them, I just find this to be more dynamic and creative.
@chrisrazz7 Can’t forget Grateful Dead.
@RiccardoNorris Pick up the newest issue of Modern Drummer. They have a great article on Tortoise. 2 kits are C&C Custom drums. And one of the drummers plays and old Ludwig Giant Beat kit.
I’m not totally sure which 2 kits they are using on this performance. Hope that helps.
