I was just thinking that while watching this yet again. All looking at Omar but Jim Ward is holding it all together and allowing Omar to go crazy. Especially noticable after Omar says "Fuck this guitar! I want to play the tamborine!" and the song still holds together. Is a great performance.
@@oxygenpoisoning nah it was a tech issue. coulda been output jack, pickups etc. u can tell cuz the sound was in & out, choppy. Omar kept going to the amp to figure it out
***** Sorry good sir but I'm gonna have to take a rain check on that whole heaven/hell thing. I'm going to the multiverse when I die. Its much cooler there and they got beer and stuff. Plus Tuesdays is all you can eat taco night and I love me some tacos. Thanks anyways though.
I like this performance. It's completely shambolic and all over the fucking place but brilliant. They had balls to play how they wanted to, and not be boring and safe, in front of a large tv audience.
I saw this on the night it aired - it blew me away - it don't matter that it's all a put of tune - it was a great performance - plus Robbie William's face after - that was great- he could never follow that
Awesome. My brother saw the. Love (lucky bastard) and was blown away and bought RoC. And while he enjoyed it: he gave it to me and said” Listen to this, you’ll love it” - He was 100% Right
i was 19 when i first heard about them through this song. i was like "what the fuck is this?" it scared the fuck out of me. it was what i felt the music world needed in a time of rap-metal and teen-pop during that time. they were dangerous and probably the last most dangerous thing to come out in the world of music. nowadays, everything is just shit and even those who claim to be dangerous are just full of shit.
+theonlymikeystatic Death Grips is groundbreaking and aggressive and probably the first band in a while that's had their kind of spirit, but I wouldn't go as far to call them dangerous. I was at one of their shows not too long ago and it was pretty tame. Fantastic and just as abrasive and unclean as ever, but nothing like what you would have seen ATDI do back in their day. But, there are still bands here and there that truly capture that spirit and utilize it properly without coming off as trying too hard. You've just gotta look for 'em.
You can tell why they split from watching this. Omar and Cedric are just dicking about while the other three try to play the song. It's especially funny watching Jim Ward stubbornly doing back-up vocals without a main vocal to back-up.
yup! great performance. It looks like Omar was frustrated and was taking it out on the guitar, then smacked the tambourine around for a while. If you want to check out his latest project search Bosnian Rainbows, enjoy!
I remember this song coming out and Toby Amies presenting a chart show on what was then still MTV Europe and he went "Finally something decent coming up."
Bet the old people in the audience were like "Ooo what a racket. Boys do look like girls today don't they?" Then realised how insane it was and had a heart attack.
ErikErikErikErik I can't think of a band past or present as awesome as ATDI. That being said, Back in 2001-2005 was a band called Bear vs.Shark. Amazing live shows, 2 great albums. Check them out if you haven't already. Also, the great Fugazi who pretty much invented the Post-Hardcore genre.
Jules have a major “fuck yes” moment here. Throwing bands in the face of one another like a mad musical scientist pushing the comfort zones of their known creative boundaries. Whether or not they know it these bands take something away from these circles of sound. Swear to God Cedric threw a little James Brown in there too.
Idk but for some reason the out of tune guitar parts kinda worked, at least earlier when Omar was trying to make it work. I love the twist it gave the song.
omar really fucks it, we already know cedric's edgy but if omar played solid it might be a decent musical performance but the stage performance is fantastic
I hope that casually thrown guitar didn't hurt anyone .... And to anyone who mocks this you obviously haven't had a Stratocaster(other guitars are available), wrapped around their head. I speak from experience..... But basses do hurt more,
"I respect this band a lot and I love this song. Happy they're reforming. But when it's only 60% of the band bothering to play the song it's not 'edgy'. It's taking the piss." You're exactly right of course. Without the competently-played drums and rhythm guitar, there would have been no semblance of a song, just two wasted motherfuckers shitting out discordant noise. I'm assuming the bass was competently played, but with all the poop coming out of that guitar and Cedric's screaming, you can't hear it under the treble. I love this song, but when you're playing a completely different part of the fretboard and not even hitting the right notes, on top of not tuning your guitar, you're just purposefully offering a shitty performance. Looking cool should not come at the expense of the music.
"Playing a completely different part of the fretboard"... Lol a lot of At The Drive ins music is easily played anywhere around the neck... As is most music. Maybe he was trying to find his way around the untuned string by just playing the song an alternate way? Scrubs these days..
AjayRhys So what you're saying is the band played the song beautifully, and I'm a scrub because fretboards? Run along now and go comment on emo videos.
In which a lone rhythm guitarist proves why its a good thing to have one guy in the band who keeps his cool. This is a badass performance.

@@mikmook4781 wasnt on purpose tho cuz his guitar was messed up
@@ocruz9797 yep his strap broke from dancing around and flinging his guitar.
@@oxygenpoisoning nah it was a tech issue. coulda been output jack, pickups etc. u can tell cuz the sound was in & out, choppy. Omar kept going to the amp to figure it out
@@ocruz9797not at all I think he’s just playing erratically. He’s an experimental guitarist
Dude, whoever edited this missed out Robbie's amazing line at the end: "Uh, can me mate have his chair back?"
Brilliant.
RW said that at the beginning of his second song on the show.
5:18 Robbie Williams playing that calm shit after ATDI is just tooo funny.
One of the all-time great live performances of anything, ever.
THIS IS THE BEST THINGS MY EYES DID EVER SEE
That's only because we haven't met yet ; )
Arka Presente lolol

Sorry good sir but I'm gonna have to take a rain check on that whole heaven/hell thing.
I'm going to the multiverse when I die.
Its much cooler there and they got beer and stuff. Plus Tuesdays is all you can eat taco night and I love me some tacos.
Thanks anyways though.

I'm sure you would know, sounds like your kinda party.
watch fugazi's performance of the song "glue man" on their dvd "instrument"
I like this performance. It's completely shambolic and all over the fucking place but brilliant. They had balls to play how they wanted to, and not be boring and safe, in front of a large tv audience.
Jez Creed i would have written the same thing but stopped at 'place'
I like the end when Sparta starts their set.
Top tier comment
Where's Sparta now?
you mean who Sparta carried the entire ADTI performance while omar and cedric dance around, you hack.
I saw this on the night it aired - it blew me away - it don't matter that it's all a put of tune - it was a great performance - plus Robbie William's face after - that was great- he could never follow that
i was delighted to see the stupid face on williams, trying to go on after that with some soppy, saccharine bullshit.
robbie williams expressed the desires of 100% of the music conscious viewers
..............give us the chair back and fuck off you morons
POLYAL0899 no one cares what opinion Robbie Williams has on music.
Omar never wanted to play guitar. He just wanted to be a dancer
3:00 for the greatest moment ever.
Actually one of the best live performances ever! So much raw energy!
The day after this screened I went to see them in Belfast - one of the best gigs I've ever been to.
Awesome. My brother saw the. Love (lucky bastard) and was blown away and bought RoC. And while he enjoyed it: he gave it to me and said” Listen to this, you’ll love it” - He was 100% Right
hahahahaha that look on robbie williams face was priceless, how the fuck could you follow that!
+Tobias St I didn't recognize him, now I understand lmfao priceless indeed
Love this. Ive played guitar 30 years and that's the point
I'll never forget where I was when I first saw this performance. I was at home, watching this performance, on T.V.
See Robbie, that's how you captivate an audience.
i almost broke a goddamn leg right now, its impossible to stand still. I miss that band so much.
Nobody was prepared for this. Jesus Christ on a Bicycle!
I know u did not just say Jesus Christ on a bicycle
One of the best performances I have seen. No doubt.
No one gives the Bass player enough credit here
That was brilliant, and it only got better when you see the guy from Take That was up next.
The coolest part is that Robbie was totally overshadowed. His face says it all. Good always triumphs rock!
I remember him saying "can we get our chair back please"
@@swanny2001 "can me mate get his chair back please?" 😂🤣😂
gotta love robbie williams face at the end ha ha !
i remember my friend showed me this and my head almost exploded from the amazingness of this performance
And now they come back. FUCK YES!
Oh yeah!!!!
Oh yeah!!!!hmm
Oh yeah!!!
+Helmut Hummer OH YEAHHHHH
I saw the program a few months ago, so great to find it here. ATDI is off the wall!! Thanks
Saw this on the day also.blew me away even if it was so shambolic!! Who cares!! I played the album to death and it still sounds just as good now.
i was 19 when i first heard about them through this song. i was like "what the fuck is this?" it scared the fuck out of me. it was what i felt the music world needed in a time of rap-metal and teen-pop during that time. they were dangerous and probably the last most dangerous thing to come out in the world of music. nowadays, everything is just shit and even those who claim to be dangerous are just full of shit.
Paul Lambeth
like who?
+thevoid99 Death Grips, for better or worse.
+Paul Lambeth Death Grips yo, as that other guy said
Everything is too safe and clean these days, as far as mainstream goes.
Maybe look into more extreme forms of metal, punk, and hardcore.
+theonlymikeystatic Death Grips is groundbreaking and aggressive and probably the first band in a while that's had their kind of spirit, but I wouldn't go as far to call them dangerous.

Spot on commentary, that’s why they are special
You can tell why they split from watching this. Omar and Cedric are just dicking about while the other three try to play the song. It's especially funny watching Jim Ward stubbornly doing back-up vocals without a main vocal to back-up.
LOVE this......
Unique, as a compliment, could not be more fitting!
HAHA this performance would've fallen apart without Jim
The entire Sparta band carried that performance
Chair: "I felt violated after this show"
This was on the BBC............fucking out there. Love it
this transition from ATDI to Robbie Williams lol :D
Omar is a legend!
yup! great performance. It looks like Omar was frustrated and was taking it out on the guitar, then smacked the tambourine around for a while. If you want to check out his latest project search Bosnian Rainbows, enjoy!
over to you Robbie.
Setting a trend
Crazy but amazing energy
And that's what you call punk rock, kids.
thanks for uploading this!
I remember this song coming out and Toby Amies presenting a chart show on what was then still MTV Europe and he went "Finally something decent coming up."
This. Is. Awesome.
THEY ARE BACK
This makes me so happy 😂
Art.
for anyone who doesn't know, at the end, robbie williams says "can my mate have his chair back please" xD
Perfection
RAW AS!!...Fcukin love it
Favourited, thankyou!
zane lowe..............spot on
best performs ever
This is from the greatest album ever recorded. The most punk thing I've seen on british TV
Bet the old people in the audience were like "Ooo what a racket. Boys do look like girls today don't they?" Then realised how insane it was and had a heart attack.
"can me mate have his chair?" xD hhaahaha
Man can anyone tell me if there is a band nowadays that's as awesome as At the Drive-in?
ErikErikErikErik I can't think of a band past or present as awesome as ATDI. That being said, Back in 2001-2005 was a band called Bear vs.Shark. Amazing live shows, 2 great albums. Check them out if you haven't already. Also, the great Fugazi who pretty much invented the Post-Hardcore genre.
Holy shit, I actually agree with Zane Lowe.. Right on!
HAHA robbie williams at the end! can me mate have his chair back LOL
My brain when my adhd meds stop working.
Good Performance i listened to that album everyday
wow...this is...wow...umm...there are literally no words. at all.
MAGIC
lol you can tell the following dude was like how do I follow that.. Haha hahaha I can't even think of his name now!!
THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU DRINK 8 CANS OF RED BULL AND THEN GO TO PERFORM ON STAGE
+odla1709 I'm pretty sure they weren't drinking red bull.
Close. If you substitute Heroin and Crack Cocaine for Red Bull you'd be dead on.
I reckon they might have even been drinking bat's blood and messing around with voodoo too.
+Justin Vavala heroin is a downer
Shit!! The whole idea why this is perfect is Boy band boy at the end.Given a teet to suckle on.
I have no clue what the fuck I just watched but this band became even more awesome
atdi fuckin rock..love it!!
Rock & Roll puro chingao :D
@DrumBrum561 Its Zane Lowe, DJ for Radio 1 in the UK
Omar and Cedric were on another level that day.
I often watch this performance and wonder why this superb band run out of steam? Lol Seriously though what a performance.
why do you ' often ' watch this performance??????????????
James Grice they're still shit you fucking mard arse..go and chuck your rattle
out of somefuckerelses pram
I was waiting for Omar's guitar to just fall apart. hahaha! That was fucking awesome.
All other bands were completely overshadowed that day lmao
5:24 Robbie Williams looks like someone who's just been mugged. Brilliant.
Jules have a major “fuck yes” moment here. Throwing bands in the face of one another like a mad musical scientist pushing the comfort zones of their known creative boundaries. Whether or not they know it these bands take something away from these circles of sound. Swear to God Cedric threw a little James Brown in there too.
"Oh shit there goes my guitar, ahh look a tambourine." Hahahahahaha!
this is sick af
+KR3WskaterD yea
+KR3WskaterD i agree
proving music can both offend and influence
That was fucking mental, brilliant
That MC5 thing must have been a reference to the hair.
Fucking amazing.
Idk but for some reason the out of tune guitar parts kinda worked, at least earlier when Omar was trying to make it work. I love the twist it gave the song.
Ciedric was onnn it... Omar was on something he played one verse right the rest he was just hitting open string noise hahaha crazy
I love dissonant young Omar ^^
@itsinmybones i dont think you understand at the drive in, do you?
2nd band is like how the hell do we follow this up
Y E S
Just goes to show omar quit before physically leaving atdi
omar really fucks it, we already know cedric's edgy but if omar played solid it might be a decent musical performance but the stage performance is fantastic
love omar though and cedric
Imagining following that up with fucking Robbie Williams ahahaha
i just came alittle....
Robbie's just thinking.. "HOW THE FUCK DO I FOLLOW THAT?!"
I hope that casually thrown guitar didn't hurt anyone ....
And to anyone who mocks this you obviously haven't had a Stratocaster(other guitars are available), wrapped around their head. I speak from experience..... But basses do hurt more,
Steven Stratton must admit it sounded a bit better after he slung his
git...pity the rest of the band didn't follow suit
shambolic
is that Andrew Stockdale?!!!!
"I respect this band a lot and I love this song. Happy they're reforming. But when it's only 60% of the band bothering to play the song it's not 'edgy'. It's taking the piss."

run to listen to classical music then idiot!
I wanna know what Robbin Williams was gunna say lol
Fucking Genius, A big giant "Fuck IT". Next up Robbie Robertson, lmao.
Vanished??? Those two acid-heads became The Mars Volta. (If you knew that already, I apologise).
