It's crazy how Tortoise sounds like the most technical band but also the most chillin band at the exact same time
If I could choose any band to be a member of, Tortoise would be it.
Tortoise is pretty much the only band that I would literally kill to see live. They replicate their songs so wonderfully. I've proudly been a Tortoise fan for years, and have no intention to stop, ever.
Amen, brother! I've been a fan for a long time as well. Post rock, in general. You listen to Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, Isotope 217? or Mogwai?
I ran into Jeff Parker at the Book Fair in L.A. this past spring. He was walking around with his daughter and it was packed. I was walking toward him and because of the crowds almost ran into him, which is how I recognized him. I just blurted out "are you Jeff Parker from Tortoise?" and he said he was. He stopped and chatted for a minute as I told him what a fan I was, and he introduced his daughter and signed a fair brochure for me. He said Tortoise was indeed working on new music and he hoped it would be out "soon". Super cool and accommodating guy. Hope we get us some new Tortoise in the new year...
+Douglas Stephens Sweet!!
+Douglas Stephens Cool story. . They have no other equal musically or creatively. They just don't seek out any fame or fortune so they are very modest guys in person.
thats one of the things i like about them! that they're very down to earth individuals and their music reflects that!
Binging Tortoise tonight and found this set!! So wild this post is from 15 years ago in 2006 youtube was not even a year old yet.. trails blazed
10 years after it was recorded and still cant get past this set :D
I just remembered it!
I left a comment on this same video roughly 2.5 years ago praising Tortoise and this performance. I had only been listening to them for a few months, but I fell in love with them hard.
2.5 years later I know every Tortoise song like the back of my hand, and they can still give me goosebumps. Remarkable group of musicians.
wow, i cant believe ive only just found this band this very second. this music is so beautiful.
really beautiful melodies(i think thats how you spell it anyway).
Just realised I’ve been coming back to this clip for the last 18 years. Tortoise was the soundtrack to my twenties. Magic happened in that live set
Such great drummers, they sound so smooth. Even the parts where they are both soloing sound great, it doesn't sound aggressive, it sounds like a collage of sound, like they're painting a texture over the music.
Stretch (you are alright), The Lithium Stiffs, and Crest are from "It's All Around You". They are the 1st, 4th, and 5th songs, respectively. The 2nd and 3rd songs are Ten Day Interval, and Swung From The Gutters. They are off "TNT", which is my favorite album by them. The last song is Seneca, which is off of "Standards".
Still incredible 10 years later
Swung from the gutters is the best song in the world!! Thanks for this vid! I love the scene with the drummers at 12:01 Its fantastic!
I love this set. Thanks for posting. Appreciated in the highest honors!!!

"Swung from the Gutters" is sweepingly gorgeous! I've been lucky enough to catch these guys live about 5 times, including Lounge Ax in Chicago. This is really a stand-out set. So much space. Thank you, Tortoise!

This is amazing. Good thing there are still rock bands out there which search for a personal sound. Long live Tortoise.
What a stunning band. I wish they'd release their live performances on CD and DVD.
excellent stuff
mann this was awesome,
I could listen to the first song all day long
Awesome! I can't wait to see the at The Troubadour in July!
stunning
Well, from Portugal, i can only say, that i met, TORTOISE, just a few days ago, and...what a great band! Refreshing sound, with the guitars in their place...good sound!

Awesome!
i saw them 3 times in BEL, but first time i see this :D nice vid !
Thank You Thank You THANK YOU!
stunning.
Girl at 18:52 knows what's up.
When I worked as a cashier at Borders in Chicago, I was fortunate enough to have Jeff Parker in my line. We chatted briefly, but it was super busy. very cool guy!
man i wish i could play drums like those guys
ossom! it seems that rock doesn't have limits... there always be ways to explore it !!!
saludos desde colombia!
hey thanx!
WOW i have never heard of them before. the world needs ore musik like this!!!!!!!!!!!
seriously what other band has two drummers!
im finding all these bands lately that are off the CHAIN and have been around forever!!
King crimson, Melvi's. I'm sure there are others.
The Lithium Stiffs / Crest are so great.
6 years later they still are.
i like this very much
I really can't describe how happy I am that I found this. I think Tortoise is becoming my favorite band. I don't mean to be overly dramatic.
Tortoise are awesome! Apparently they're working on a new album that might come at the end of the year. Can't wait.
Didn't know them, but they got a BIG fan now! After listening the second tune I felt like hearing Steve Reich on a Rock band! Great! I'm a fan now! Great band!!!
whenever i want to show people what's a great new band from the last 30 years i show them this video!
Greatness!
LOVE the TORTOISE!!!!!
Amazing =)
Esperandolos con ansias en Argentina!
Saw them at a tiny bar in rochester last summer. Nice fellas.
the word sublime, has never got a better use than describing this band live performance!
what i was waiting for tonigh was this sound (:
Wow. This is really great. I used to see Jeff Parker with the New Horizons Ensemble in Chicago in the early 90's. Always loved his playing. I had lost track of that Chicago scene for a while after I moved away. This group is really amazing.
I watched 20 minutes of this, this was really good music.
defenitely my favorite band....is just celestial music wish they come to Mexico someday
superb
i want to like this every time i watch, i think i'm ~100 of the 700k views
+beatfox9 haha, i feel the same!
+beatfox9 I feel ya brotha. I've been watching this video since 2008 when i first learned about these guys. i think i might have a little problem.
certainly a great lesson about good music!
the first unknown was "Stretch (You Are All Right)"
the 2nd unknown was "The Lithium Shifts" and "Crest" (joined together), all from the album "It's All Around You".
Amazing.
Holy fuck they murdered Swung From The Gutters in the middle of it, but it was interesting in its own way, I definitely didn't expect that free jazz blow-out and it made my heart race
