What Songs By TLE Have You Never Heard Live, Or Always Wanted To?

[oofenshnine]

pretty straight forward



'cause right now i'm listening to SOE

i never saw no way out or one step behind, prolly some others too, and i really, really wanted to when they were touring soe

[Raphaela]

I have never seen Don't Shut the Gate live
anyone has it(if they ever played it live)?

[_jimmy_]

I've only seen them live once and they didn't play e boogie

[Anfony]

I've always thought about this and there are quite a few but the song i'd most like to hear live is Stay away from me.

[oofenshnine]

yeah, songs from hellbound or it's for your own good would be raaadd



i mean obviously there are a bajillion recordings

i wanna see 'em myself though :(

[_jimmy_]

I'd love to see Order Of The Day and apeface.

[aucklandboy123]

The Room would be amazing its probably one of my favorite songs by them
uncle harry would be fine too.

[Jonnno]

I have never seen Don't Shut the Gate live
anyone has it(if they ever played it live)?

Yeah, I've got a recording from a show a few years back, 2001 maybe?

I'd like to see nowhere town and order of the day, but somehow I dont think they'd work live.

I want to see Have They Forgotten, that'd go off.

[The Dying Start]

I have never seen Don't Shut the Gate live
anyone has it(if they ever played it live)?

They played it most shows following the release of Roll On. I have a few recordings.

I'd like to hear So Lonely, There Is No Radio, Mr Businessman & Fly Away (which was awesome live, back in the day)

[Anfony]

Yeah that'd be great, Scotts arms would probably fall off afterwards :p Closing in and sleep on it would be great live too.

[The Dying Start]

Definately Closing In....we got a snippet of it at a Sound Check in 2003....but not much!

[Deadcat Kaye]

Apeface would be awesome!!

Bloody Mary or Monday would put a mass smile on my face if they played that live

[Fritz]

they did dont shut the gate alot during the roll on tour.

that is all..

[The Dying Start]

Yeah, someone said that....

[Jonnno]

Yeah, closing in and fly away would be fantastic too.

Oh yeah and Trapped.

[Anfony]

Into the red at bdo 03 was great...I've seen the video but I'd love to see that one live.

[oofenshnine]

hey what kind of setlits were happening earlier on in the year for tln gigs?



as in, apart from white noise tracks

i'm feeling lazy :p haha

[_jimmy_]

i heard that they played old songs as encores,WOYR,WER etc etc

I'd love to hear witch doctor live,scotty would have fun!

[worry_rock]

* Witch Doctor (WOULD BE THE MOST MAD SONG LIVE)
* So Lonely
* Prisoner On The Inside
* Closing In

[Anfony]

oofenshnine, at the San Remo Longnecks gig they played Roll on (thanks to my mates request), Uncle Harry (thanks to everybody in the crowd) :P Second Solution and West End Riot.

[Sarah]

They played it most shows following the release of Roll On. I have a few recordings.

I'd like to hear So Lonely, There Is No Radio, Mr Businessman & Fly Away (which was awesome live, back in the day)

Seen So Lonely.

But There Is No Radio is definately towards the top of my list.

(oh, and someone hey? :p )

Into the red at bdo 03 was great...I've seen the video but I'd love to see that one live.

That was on my list, but I got to see it (same night as So Lonely), and it was awesome!

haha, I wont say how many songs off that list I've seen :p

Whilst I haven't been to that many shows, I seem to make it to shows with amazing setlists!

There's heaps of songs I'd love to hear again, but I'm happy I got to see them at least once or twice, so my list of songs that I want to see that I haven't before is:

There Is No Radio
Trace of Doubt

[Colezy]

Uncle Harry (thanks to everybody in the crowd) :P

Yeah, everyone but me :p


I will think of a list for this later on :)

[Shadow]

Well I've always wanted to hear a few live in person, but I don't think some have EVER been played... though I can't say for sure. Strangely enough, a bunch of them are from Roll On.

- Read About It
- Killing The Right
- Silent Victory
- Blood On Your Hands
- Don't Shut The Gate (has been played live, there's a boot of it from the Roundhouse 2001 show floating around)
- State Of Emergency (was played on SOE-era Longnecks tour in demo form as "Stand In Line", but never since)

Rats would be good to hear again too. Can't remember much of it.

[mattheal]

um let me see

Trapped - with horn section *drools*
Putting You Down - one of my faves of Modern Artillery
Headlines - my all time fave TLE song, i love that my fave is their first recorded song :p
Homestead
Rising Sun
Baby I'm A Want You

[Kev]

Into the red at bdo 03 was great...I've seen the video but I'd love to see that one live.


Saw this done in 2003 at my birthday* gig

Also won a TLE prize pack for answering a question about what new unreleased song was played.





*gig was close to my birthday, hence my birthday gig

[Anfony]

btw, you may call me isabele :)
No Problemo Isabele.

Saw this done in 2003 at my birthday* gig

Also won a TLE prize pack for answering a question about what new unreleased song was played.
Awesome Kev! Hehe All the NSW White Noise gigs will be birthday gigs for me as my birthday is Sep 16.

It would be nice if they played some stuff that they havn't played live before at the upcoming gigs.

[Big J.G]

I'd definitely like to see There Is No Radio or The Room Live. As Well As Maitland Street.

[Anfony]

So what would be a corker!

[oofenshnine]

haha i was gonna post something like, 'is it wrong that 'there is no radio' does nothing for me?'



less than 3min 10sec later i dramatically changed my mind :p i guess it's been a while since i last listened to it

[_jimmy_]

love the intro

whole lotta noise!

[Big J.G]

There Is No Radio would be insane on Guitar Hero as well. I tried making a custom for it but my ears are terrible when determining which notes go where.

[Colezy]

Hellbound
Trapped
There Is No Radio
Mr. Businessman
Living In Sin

Plus several covers

[Kacky]

I really wanna see them play The Room, Riot On Broadway, No Way Out, Jimmy and One Said To The Other. Faaaavvvourrriiites. <3 :)

As well as their b-sides and covers and stuff!

[Colezy]

Yeah, I'd love to hear them play a few other Roll On tracks in person..got the recordings and all, but to hear it live at a gig I was at would be even better.

[Sarah]

- Killing The Right

- Blood On Your Hands


Damnit (Janet) I knew there was another one I was missing from my list. One of my favourite songs! And I have quite a soft spot for Killing The Right, so that can be added to my list too.

[Kev]

Trapped has been performed live. When they toured with A-7 ages and ages ago

[Colezy]

But I haven't seen it live for myself!

[Absolution]

Ooooh, I could go for just about anything live...but here's a few favs:

-All Torn Down
-Have they Forgotten?
-One Step Behind
-Save the Day
-Killing The Right
-Problem
-Til the End

[MisspentYouth]

I'd absolutely love to see them play Maitland Street. Also, I think Don't Turn Away would be awesome live.

[The Dying Start]

- Blood On Your Hands

YES!

Putting You Down - one of my faves of Modern Artillery

I concur!


-Have the Forgotten?
-Problem

Cha-CHING!

[Kacky]

Oh man. Trapped would be SO AWESOME.

I want to hear ALL TLE songs played live!

[whitey]

All those songs off Roll On being:
Blood On Your Hands.
Astoria Paranoia.
Carry Me Home.
Riot On Broadway.

[The Dying Start]

I want to hear ALL TLE songs played live!

Every song, in chronological order. That would be a good night's entertainment...!

[Kacky]

Oh man. That'd be WICKED.

[The Dying Start]

Over-utlisation of the phrase "Oh Man" on this page.

[Kacky]

Oh man! I didn't notice. :p

Anywho. I'll think before I put 'oh man' next time. Mmmhmm.

[Grumma]

Cherry Pie!!!!

[damo0945]

Maitland Street would be good as, i presume Strange was played heaps back in the day but it would be good, and Headlines as well

[r2jeeves]

Monday
Save the Day
One Said to The Other
State of Emergency


I might have seen Save The Day, but i've forgotten. I'd like to think I'd remember it.

[mattheal]

Every song, in chronological order. That would be a good night's entertainment...!

that would be awesome would go for a while though

EDIT: approximatley 6 hours if my calculations are correct :p

[Habibster]

I would like to hear Hellbound played in its entirety played live. Either that or Stay Away From Me.

[_jimmy_]

Rip It Up,that would be awesome to hear Chris go nuts on the guitar.

bigsby fun!

[oofenshnine]

approximatley 6 hours if my calculations are correct :p



sounds mighty fine to meee :D



what about improv though! we need time for that too! man, just iimmaaagine the solos we'd get outta that

haha

[The Dying Start]

sounds mighty fine to meee :D



what about improv though! we need time for that too! man, just iimmaaagine the solos we'd get outta that

haha

I'll sleep well tonight....

[Kacky]

LONE RANGER! :D

[The Dying Start]

They used to do that. One of only a handful of Bsides they had on the live set.

[WHITE FALCON]

Defineately the following...

Long Ranger
End of the world good quality (not shitty detour)
Carry Me Home
Bringin it all back home :)
Hellbound
The Living End (played now rather then back then)
nowhere town
Closing In
Trapped with horns :)
maybe Have They Forgotten
The Room (played properly)
Putting You Down
Blood On Your Hands
Riot On Broadway (i love the title as well)
Mr Business Man
Ready (that would be so rad as a little filler. has anyone else heard it)
Save The Day
Fly Away
Growing Up

ahhh thers my rant.

[Fritz]

from what I remember, I always remember thinking There Is No Radio goes heaps high school prom in the middle. (except for the lyrics of course!)

[Elyse]

HEADLINES!

the oldies know how obsessed i am with that song.

[mattheal]

Defineately the following...

Long Ranger
End of the world good quality (not shitty detour)
Carry Me Home
Bringin it all back home :)

[WHITE FALCON]

[Colezy]

Rip It Up,that would be awesome to hear Chris go nuts on the guitar.

bigsby fun!
Heard that at Falls Festival 2004 :) But don't remember too much of it, so I have to listen to a recording of it to remember :p

Can't remember if Headlines was in my other post or not, but would also love to hear that live!

[Big J.G]

Anyone up with Witchdoctor or Bringin' it all back home?

How about Live It Up? Thats the only released song I havent heard at all, let alone live. LOL

[Colezy]

Yeah Live It Up was on my 'maybe' list :p I guess it'd be cool to see how it would sound live.

[Sarah]

Heard that at Falls Festival 2004 :) But don't remember too much of it, so I have to listen to a recording of it to remember :p




I've seen it twice. and it was exceptionally awesome both times :)

[oofenshnine]

How about Live It Up?



not real sure i'm a fan of that song, lyrically



i'd give it a listen but i can't seem to find it

:confused:

[Colezy]

I've seen it twice. and it was exceptionally awesome both times :)

I mostly remember getting squished like crazy from either side and from the tossbags behind me.

[Sarah]

oh yeah, it was a bit like that - we ran up the back it was so bad!

[Colezy]

I would have too, if it were physically possible :p

[Wild Turkey]

Where does everyone get all these b-sides.

I know they were on the old singles but half of them arent even made anymore

[All_torn_down16]

Definitely:

- Silent Victory
- Fly Away
- Closing In
- Trapped
- Staring At The Light
- Carry Me Home
- Tabloid Magazine (even if some say it isn't as good live, I still love it!)
- The Jailbreak cover would be good
- Nowhere Town

Probably lots of others I can't think of right now too :)

[Sarah]

Where does everyone get all these b-sides.

I know they were on the old singles but half of them arent even made anymore

ebay and second hand stores/online store for cds.

online at most places, like itunes, bigpond, etc.

[Wild Turkey]

Oh yer itunes good thinking thank for that sarah;)

[WHITE FALCON]

man op shops have the best shit i swear :)

end of the world single for $1
and roll on album for $5
hahaha

[The Dying Start]

Jackpot!!!

[WHITE FALCON]

fuck yeah :)
the old lady at the counter was like.
"where did you find this?"
i guess they didnt even know they had it hah

[The Dying Start]

Hahaha, yeah...that's happened to me before too. "Oh man, I've been trying to track this down...and WE HAD IT!"

[Colezy]

man op shops have the best shit i swear :)

end of the world single for $1

Oh man. That's THE ONLY single that I need!!! :rolleyes:

[WHITE FALCON]

hahhah do you want to know something really sad as well.
i lent it to my friend and his CD player scratched the fuck out of it :(
he told me he'd buy me a new one and im still holding him too it.
everytime i see him im like "so have you found one yet?"
i told him to just buy me a carton instead :P

[Kacky]

Get the CD resurfaced! Don't know how much good resurfacing does, but just a suggestion.

[Sarah]

yeah, just take it to your local dvd rental store, they'll buff it for you for a few bucks, should do the job!

[The Dying Start]

That's why i rip the mp3's whenever i buy a cd, and then put the CD away to never be played again. I wish I'd done that with my Self Titled.

[Kacky]

That's what I do too, and people don't seem to get why I do that.

[The Dying Start]

It also means my computer is the most awesome jukebox in town.

[WHITE FALCON]

oh yes oh yes good suggestions :)
but when i got this i didnt have my own computer so i wasnt allowed to "take up too much space with my crap music"

ill get onto it !
how much musico you got glenn?

[The Dying Start]

how much musico you got glenn?

My iPod currently has 5713 tracks, my computer has a few albums more, but not much.


For those that don't own their own computer...buy an external hard drive. All my mp3's and music videos are on an external drive. They're cheap as chips these days, and despite my initial apprehension, you get no quality loss by playing your media off an external drive.

It also means if you want to trade stuff with your mates, you just unplug it and take it round to their house!

[mattheal]

as long as you dont loose it :( that happened to me recently...but its ok because i had given my frined a complete copy of the contents so i got it all back :)

[The Dying Start]

How do you lose a fricking harddrive?

[Colezy]

I do the same as Glenn re: the hard drive/music thing :)
Works a treat!

[mattheal]

How do you lose a fricking harddrive?

was in a hurry left it sitting at the computer i was using at school :(

i was SOOO pissed at myself:mad:

[Kacky]

Aww, that sucks! D:

[mattheal]

yup and i went back about 2 hours later it was gone, and none of the teachers in that room had seen it nor had it been handed in :(

never mind

[The Dying Start]

Why would you take it to school. Everything gets racked at school.

[mattheal]

it had one of my assignments on there, and i couldnt be bothered to put it on somthing i would be pissed if i lost. but i know that now :)

[Big J.G]

email work much?

[Grumma]

Master of puppets

[Habibster]

i second that grumma :D

[The Dying Start]

I reckon they could pull Fade To Black.

Or even a rockabilly version of Fuel.

Or they could go back their Irish roots and do Whiskey In The Jar

[Big J.G]

i think they can pull off a Rockabilly Version of One.

[Kacky]

Mmmm, Rockabilly. <3

[Burner]

Misspent Youth immediately comes to mind. But i didn't really think about it that hard. There are most likely more that i would like to hear live, though.

[DrinkOn AKA Reece]

has anyone said closing in

[Kacky]

Yeaaaaaah! Closing In would be good!

CIA!!!!!!!

[_jimmy_]

Live To Love would be a cracker

This is a song you raise your lighters too

or

Sing at the pub drunk :p

[Kacky]

LIVE TO LOVE!
CIA!
LISTEN UP SUZY!
RISING SUN!

[WHITE FALCON]

hey wait i know the answer for the next 20 posts

*inersts new song title here*!!

[The Dying Start]

I had the same feeling Arin!

[WHITE FALCON]

[gaby2121]

I want to hear I want a day!!

[AlinaPOW]

[AlinaPOW]

[Kacky]

[Colezy]

[Kacky]

Lol. EPIC!

[AlinaPOW]

Bahahaha!!!! That's epic!! XD
How many voice recordings of me have you got you lil' stalker? :p

Leeeeeegendary :)

[Colezy]

Ok, in this one you yell it out TWICE! haha

It's Chris talking after playing Faith..its pretty muffled though. Alina comes in towards the end.

LONE RANGER! (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FA19I3JE) You might need to turn it up quite loud??

I've gotta get the other one off of my phone.

[Kacky]

Nawwww, how cute. :p

[AlinaPOW]

HAHAHAHAHA I am such a tool-kit :p

[Kacky]

SUM OF US!

[TaylorLovesChrisCheneyx]

I would like to see The Room, Nowhere Town, Sleep On It, I Want A Day, One Step Behind and No Way Out live. :)

[Amur]

SUM OF US!
heard it twice, now I want some SOE stuff cos we didn't get a single song off it!

[paulvroc]

I've always thought about this and there are quite a few but the song i'd most like to hear live is Stay away from me.

ha...wow
just take my really original choice of song i love and have never seen live
as if someone else loves Stay Away From Me as much as i do :)
i reckon its brilliant...the fast-paced style with all the riffs...its like a punkabilly metallica song

i consider myself priveleged to have experienced The Room live...
and i went to the SOE tour...so i'm happy to have seen One Step Behind, Black Cat, all the classics...
and Closing In would be another that would be fantastic to see live

[The Dying Start]

Stay Away From Me should have been an Instrumental. It is INSANITY.

[Zac]

i reckon-
the room
closing in
blue moon of kentucky (theres a clip on youtube of em doing it in america! its great)
blood on your hands
killing the right
rising up from the ashes
maitland st
21st century
lone-ranger
the living end!
strange would be good too
i could go on for days but theres the ones id like to hear the most

[Shadow]

i reckon-
killing the right
21st century
Bo-yeah. Obscure Roll On album-track love! KTR is epic. I'd love to see them bring it out with a few more RO tunes, like Read About It, and Riot On Broadway. Would love to hear 21st, too.

[_jimmy_]

dont turn away would be awesome i reckon

[Big J.G]

WAITING FOR THE SILENCE!! - I know it's been played live, but I wasn't there. Dammit.

And also, Silent Victory, what a song to shout to.

[paulvroc]

WAITING FOR THE SILENCE!! - I know it's been played live, but I wasn't there. Dammit.

And also, Silent Victory, what a song to shout to.

i maintain that Silent Victory is just about the best sing along song ever

[The Dying Start]

WUN MOARRRRRRRRR.....SIGH-LENT VICKTORYYYY victory

[andy_chalmers_102]

I want to hear Tabloid Magazine and One Said To The Other.


Oh, and Uncle Harry.

[Kacky]

ONE SAID TO THE OTHER. TABLOID MAGAZINE. SUM OF US. KID!

Anything from Mod ART really!

[Ben reed]

i can see that you like the poppy sort of stuff

[Kacky]

Oh no, I like it all. It's just that I really want to hear those specific songs live!

[WakeUpToTheManipulation]

so many songs so off the top of my head
Strange
Uncle Harry
Riot On Broadway
Long Live The Weekend
Tabloid Mag.
soo many others

[Kacky]

Guitar Band.

[Ben reed]

i agree with you there chels

[Kacky]

Glad someone does. :)

[The Dying Start]

I'll second that motion too!

[Habibster]

Nothing really. Rats, and English Army. But nothing other than that.

The ones i've wanted to see live;
Make The Call (my favourite Living End song)
Hey Hey Disbeliever
Sum of Us
Uncle Harry
Waiting For The Silence
End of The World
and Loaded Gun.

I saw in Brisbane a few weeks ago, except for Make the Call, which i saw at splendour last year. So yeah, i've seen most of the stuff i want to see them play live.

[Yvonne]

MAKE THE CALL!!!
Killing the right
Read about it
and more stuff from the Roll on-album
Rising Sun

[mel_bound]

Blinded.


well we have the BDO version, which is all good.

[The Dying Start]

Into The Red is another BDO03 track that could go regular in the setlist.

[damo0945]

I think the setlists just need to be less regular in general...

[Deadcat Kaye]

if anyone wants to see rising sun live and are in melbourne, check out the flyin' saucers...they do the best cover of it

[The Dying Start]

The best cover? The BEST? That's quite a statement...i must now see this!

[Deadcat Kaye]

aye it is the best.

[Amur]

I think the setlists just need to be less regular in general...
I agree...
they have so many great songs, and most of them sound better live, but TLE still go with standard set...:ermm: I was only at two shows so I cannot say I'm bored, but I wouldn't mind to see some originality as well

[damo0945]

After two threads practically dedicated to the idea to no avail, I dont think it's going to happen though...

[Colezy]

It will happen one day. (I hope!)

I imagine it'd be a fair effort to try and remember their older songs though - some of the songs seem to be so fiddly to play, it's no wonder Chris forgets what he originally came up with :p

[Shadow]

The Living End... Obscure Tour?

[Colezy]

The Living End - Annoying & Persistent Forum People's Song Choice Tour

:p

[Kacky]

The forum people ONLY tour. Meaning, they'll come to my basement/backyard.

[The Dying Start]

And so will we!

[Colezy]

Monday.

It was my favourite TLE song when the album came out and it still is and I still haven't heard it live yet... although seeing them play sum of us nearly makes up for it, cos I never thought I would see that live and it would have to be my 2nd favourite TLE song.. so I'm still pretty happy.

[Kacky]

Riot On Broadway would make me very happy too. Love that song to pieces.

Those old school Bsides rock the Casbah, that's for sure.

Anything and everything (non-single) off "Roll On".

I feel like a broken record, but Roll On is one of the most criminally overlooked albums of all time, even by the band that made it.

Apparently the songs felt "overworked" and more "difficult" than "fun" live, I forget exactly where I read that but Chris was discussing how in retrospect he thought he was overcompensating with the complex arrangements, being upset at the "three-chord-punk" label.

But those "complex arrangements" would sound great live ESPECIALLY

i concur!
kudos at its most

[TheCrazySloth]

they played Read About It at their Perth show last year

awwwwww yeeaaah

it was awesome too, btw

[Ben reed]

yeah, i think that lots of us are jealous that we didn't get to see that!
did you get it on video?

[Shadow]

they played Read About It at their Perth show last year

awwwwww yeeaaah

I still can't believe they played it only in Perth and not again on the tour. Absolutely gutted. You guys got the Back To Black cover too, yeah?

Fond Farewell and Silent Victory.

[carrymehomestead]

I find it very strange how rarely TLE change-up the mix of songs they play, whether it's the setlists from night to night on any gkven tour, or even if you compare them over the YEARS (switching out, of course, a few songs from whatever album it is they're touring at the moment).

I've heard of musicians being either too unskilled or too consistently intoxicated to rehearse a bigger catalog of songs to pull from live, but neither of those apply to TLE (even when they're drunk, they're not THAT kind of drunk). Sometimes I feel like it's the inverse of most band/audience setlist disagreements: The band is nervous about breaking too far from live tradition, with a devoted hardcore audience that is more than ready for some unexpected gems to be busted out.

Also, good to hear from some fellow Roll On groupies...:p

[damo0945]

They used to change it up a bit didn't they? I never saw them until after SoE unfortunately so I can't say for sure, I think I saw it on here somewhere though

[Habibster]

yeah, well when they play overseas, they probably just want a setlist full of mainly singles, because people have a better chance of knowing that stuff. And i guess here in Australia too. Even now, i'll say stuff about The Living End, and people are like 'who?'. Even after mentioning songs like White Noise, What's On Your Radio and Prisoner of Society, a fair few people are still like 'umm sorry never heard of them'.
It can get quite frustrating.

Even though they are well known in Australia, they aren't considered a household name like eskimo joe or wolfmother somebody like that. Could be a reason why they mainly stick to singles.

[The Dying Start]

Singles = better crowd reaction = better atmosphere. Plus it makes the lads feel better when the masses are singing their lyrics!

[carrymehomestead]

Oh, I understand the reasoning. Doesn't make it any less gay though!!!

I just saw Nine Inch Nails on their farewell tour, they're a group that has been playing mostly the same set for years, in order to put on a planned-out, orchestrated "show' with synced-up lights and screens coming down from the ceiling and what-have-you.

Being that this was their last tour, I guess Trent finally realized, "Hey, these people have been coming to see me devotedly for years and years now...they probably know more than just the songs that have been beaten to death by radio!!". And so they traded out all the big production for the ability to cover the whole catalog. Like you said, maybe it's different with TLE at home and overseas, but at least here in America the people that are at TLE shows are hardcore devoted and knowledgable about the band's stuff. There's the obvious lean towards liking the "older stuff" that happens with any band, but...I feel like maybe the living end audience isn't getting enough credit...:blues:

I mean we drool excessively on the rare occasions they've busted out stuff like Read About It, or So Lonely (Longnecks gig), but what if stuff like that happened more often?? Even if just ONE song in the set was from outta left field. Closest thing I have to seeing something like that is watching them attempt and then abandon Witchdoctor (right at the start), then proceed to play "Mighty Mouse" after somebody yelled it out. Oh, and also, on night 2 of Aussie Invasion they played Maitland Street (as far as I know, the only time that songs been played?)


Edit: Also, I would think a more "household-name" or "hot" band would be more likely to stick to just the hits, as those bands are more likely to have audiences of people who are just there to be hip, who maybe heard a few clips of the singles on radio or TV. I could see those types of people being at TLE shows circa 1998 (when they were still hot shit in a pop culture sense) but at this point, isn't the audience composed of mostly long-time fans?? Or at least people who have full living end ALBUMS on their fuckin' ipod instead of a HANDFUL OF TRACKS!!!! (god I hate that). I can only speculate, though I would love to see them in their home country.

I mention The Living End to my friends and family, and they always reply with 'who'?
How could they not know them, seriously?
I mean people should know them by their songs, like Prisoner of Society, White Noise, Wake Up and Second Solution.

Yeah, they would probably get a better crowd with just sticking to singles.

[Kacky]

A forumers gig would be different. ;)

[TaylorLovesChrisCheneyx]

hahaha true

[carrymehomestead]

You know what would be a great TLE song to see live, one that NOBODY ever mentions, most likely because it wasn't on a Living End album (or single)?

"Well if she's not that kind to you, don't you think we're through buddy? Or is she the kind that you buy drinks before you're READY!!! READY!!! READY!!!"

[Kacky]

Ah, Ready. Good tune, but very short. They'd have to play it on repeat for a few minutes! :p

[TaylorLovesChrisCheneyx]

Ah, Ready. Good tune, but very short. They'd have to play it on repeat for a few minutes! :p

Hahaha, that would be cool :laugh:

[mattheal]

or they could add some solo's to it, to bring it up to a decent time

[carrymehomestead]

The main "hook riff" (I call it "main" because it happens twice in a 30 second song) is fuckin sweet!! They could totally jam on/add to/fuck around with that. They did it with All Torn Down, who the hell saw that coming?? It kinda sounds like a lost Hellbound riff. Does anyone else wish Chris would bust out some kinda psychobilly jam at the shows?? Around the time of Trav's last performances with the band (2001?? ish??) they had an instrumental called psychobilly....something. It was used to open the Roundhouse set, I believe...it was kind of like "E-Boogie"'s evil twin.

[The Dying Start]

Psycho Twist was what it was called, and it was E-Boogie, just under a different name. E-Boogie incorporated the same riff etc.

[carrymehomestead]

Ah! You are correct about the name change. However, I am referring to the FIRST song in the Roundhouse set...I know it's in the video, so I assume it was carried over to the audio rips?? It's their little pre-roll on opening jam (and NOT the one that was used at BDO 2003 etc. that uses the same chords AS roll on)


Now that I think about it, "Apeface" kind of sounds similar to it, even though it dates back to 2001 (at least).

[Kacky]

Bringin' It All Back Home would work well live, I think.

Ahh, yeah, i know the one. They also did an "intro" at Falls 97. Sweet as.

[Ben reed]

thats the first time i've seen that song mentioned on here
good song
my dads favourite tle song

[carrymehomestead]

I'm not trying to knock ya'all, as I am a firm believer in "to each their own"-ed ness, but I have to say that "Bringin'..." is probably the worst song TLE have put to tape (in my humble opinion). There was a period, especially in between Modern Artillery and State of Emergency, where I was really quite worried about the band's future output (this also coincided with the fact that a lot of people speculated that the FHOI dvd was the band's swan song...). Not only does the music for BIABH go nowhere, but the lyrics (which can sometimes carry an otherwise boring tune) are HORRENDOUS. Especially after the lyrical peaks of Roll On, it seemed like maybe that car accident had possibly liquified Chris' brains forever ("it's too much to give it one more try/how can the truth still sound like a lie/why?".....*explodes*). AND it was one of the only new songs to come out in that no mans land period, so it got extra attention.

But the White Noise album has definitely proven Chris to be sharpening back up on that front again (see: Sum of Us, White Noise)

[The Dying Start]

I Can't Give was a kicker though. But your lyric criticism probably carries to that track as well to some extent.

[Craigels]

I really like Bringin' It all Back Home, I don't know what it is about it but it just appeals to me.

[Amur]

I really like Bringin' It all Back Home, I don't know what it is about it but it just appeals to me.
me too. can't see what's wrong with it, really. and it was just one single song, not whole album written that way. so to me there was nothing to worry about (especially considering the fact that I knew about TLE only when SOE came out :laugh:)

[carrymehomestead]

I Can't Give was a kicker though. But your lyric criticism probably carries to that track as well to some extent.

Man! I actually totally forgot about that track when I was posting. I wasn't too fond of the "single" version, but I ripped the audio from a bitchin' live performance (from "how to make an album and influence people"?? I think??) and that one got some heavy rotation.

I know lyrics aren't generally the main draw for TLE (the people in the pit bobbing their heads to POS certainly aren't comparing it to Shakespeare), but the first TLE album I purchased was Roll On in 2001, and I guess that album in a sense is an anomaly, not only in its musical diversity, but its lyrical style as well.

Even the b-sides are fuckin' poetry!! Homestead is probably my favorite TLE song, and it never gets mentioned...

[The Dying Start]

Uncle Harry..now THAT is Shakespeare.

[carrymehomestead]

Yessss!! I actually think the verses on uncle harry are clever and tell a cool little story, but the chorus is classic because you suddenly realize you're bobbing your head to a rousing anthem to seniorly alcoholic incontinence ;)

Interviewer: It seems like alot of the material on the new album is socially conscious...dealing with real issues.

Scott: Yeah, real issues...like pissing in the bath. LOLIFICATED!!!

[Shadow]

I wasn't too fond of the "single" version, but I ripped the audio from a bitchin' live performance (from "how to make an album and influence people"?? I think??) and that one got some heavy rotation.
The one from How To Make An Album And Influence People is from Splendour 2005..? I think it was also the b-side to the "yellow" (live'n'local pre-order only) version of the WOYR single. It's a badass version of the song. *thumbs up*

[carrymehomestead]

Yes!! Splendour. Thanks for that. I haven't watched "How to make..." in some time, because it only came with the Aussie version of SOE that I imported, meaning its region-encoding won't let it play on my dvd player, only my computer. But they are definitely a band where HOW the sound is captured can make or break the songs, and they tend to sound better raw.
