I was like 5 feet from the stage in front of Jon....rewatching this and it takes me right back there. I hit record on my phone as soon as I heard Batlows voice, but the sound is shitty. I'm sure I will frequent this video many times throughout the rest of my life.....
The moment when people realize that's actually him, the instant excitement in their voices and getting phones up in a rush; that there is a combination of true joy and love. It doesn't get any more genuine than this. Matt fucking Barlow, everyone.
01:26 VERY few singers can evoke that sort of massive eruption from a crowd, but Matt Barlow is enough of a legend to do just that. I really wish I could have seen this in person.
Every single time I take a break form listening to Iced Earth and come back to hearing Barlow singing, I always get the chills on how amazing his voice is. And now I’ll be on an Iced Earth obsession for a while now.
Was at this show with my wife. I remember listening to Hansi one minute & all of a sudden going wait a minute is that Matt Barlow. Such an awesome experience
Stu Block carries the torch as well as anyone could and better than most, but Matt Barlow will always be THE Iced Earth vocalist to me. (Tim Owens was good too but honestly they sounded like a different band during his tenure).
@@SithCats Tim was good, but really didn't get to shine because of the subject material he had to work with. Stu does a decent imitation of Tim and Matt, which is special in its own right. Matt was the soul of Iced Earth though. If Matt hadn't come back before he was really ready, maybe when he finally did, it would've been for long haul.
@@InfernosReaper I honestly don’t believe so. The reason why they split up again was the separation from his family during long tour schedules, as well as his main business, his service as a police officer.
@@metaldave08096 I often shed a tear watching it on YT.. can't imagine the delight of being there. Only seen BG of the 3 bands btwn them. Sadly. Missed D&W in 2019 .... didn't know it was forever.
I was there, toward the back, and Matt walked by me twice before later emerging onstage during I Died For You. At first I did a double-take and thought "Wait a minute, that's..." The second time, he came down the stairs from the upper deck and walked out the exit doors toward the bar/lobby a few feet away from me. He was trying to stay incognito, I think, as he would have been mobbed if everyone noticed him. Once I spotted Matt and was certain it was him, I figured he just had to be there for a guest appearance. A magnificent night and all 3 bands crushed it. (How did Lizzy Borden do that "3 masks every time he hid/revealed his face thing" anyway??? A consummate showman.) Tyr had me feeling like I should be rowing a longship. This was a metal event of generational significance in my opinion, as who knows if or when there will be another D &W tour? Felt I had to be there as I have seen IE 7 times since 2002 and BG 5 times. Psyched for the new D & W album next year! \m/ \m/
Oh f* yeah! Matt is my favorite singer ever. I had the opportunity to attend to an iced earth concert here in Brazil like a decade ago. Oh man!! This video brought tears to my eyes. Thanks!
I was there and probably right next to you. I was standing right along the balcony. That was an amazing show and you perfectly captured the chaos when Barlow came out. Amazing.
Marina King nice! What did your daughter think of the show?

The part that starts at 2:47 is simply killer. Seeing Hansi and Matt work through those vocals was pure magic. No disrespect to any other musicians, but seeing this video really made my day. Long live Barlow, Hansi and the Iced Earth, Blind Guardian and Demons and Wizards crew.
This is really amazing to see i wish i was actually there. Love Hansi and Matt the rest of the band too. All amazing musicians. Brings me back to the 90's.
I was lucky enough to attend the alive in athens shows that were recorder and also see them live in the Horror show tour and the one that followed Matt's return to the band. The first two shows were simply unforgetable. When he returned I think that he wasn't really there. Seeing this now was just as good as it was in athens many wears ago. His voice is even better I think and Hansi really gives a great support. Asesome man, thank you for uploading.
Yeah,me too!Have Seen IE with Matt a couple of Times,at least six or seven Times!Alone four Times at the DARK Saga Tour!And also BG! But this must bei an awesome Moment!Holy Fucking Good!But also all the best for Stu! He made a fantastic Job! Greetings from Germany!
This really made me weep a little, its so great yet so sad we will never get another proper full-lenght Ice Earth performance with Matt behind the mic...
I was there right on the balcony probably right near or above you. It was an amazing show and Matt coming out was just incredible. Thanks for posting it!
THE AMAZINGGGGGGG VOICEEEEE OF MATTTTTT STRIKESSSSS BACKKKKKKKKKK......hhahahahahahaha....SO BLESSEDDDDDDD THAT ENJOYED THESEEEEEE GLORYFULLLLLLL DAYS OF ICEDDDDDDD EARTHHHHHHHHH..!!!!!!!!!!
Man, it's a shame I was in a car moving to Florida just a day or so before this. And the Playstation Theater is formerly the Best Buy Theater, where I saw Iced Earth in 2008, right up in the front row against the railing. It was honestly one of the best shows I've ever seen. I've never caught them since, partly because Matt left and life took over, but I love that he still keeps things going for the fans. He's seriously a great dude.
Accidentally left the auto subtitle setting on, and at 1:28 it says "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH". Bravo, I think it sums up the moment perfectly. X-D
Amazing.. I just commemted on a video of a bunch of artists who covered Immigrant Song, sadly, D&W wasn't mentioned. They did the best cover imo by far. That whole album was awesome.
Thank you for sharing this recording. I teared up hearing Matt's voice and the crowd reaction. Saw Iced Earth during the Something Wicked, Horror Show, Crucible tours. Each were unforgettable experiences...
It would have been even better if the title didn't say it and it came as much as a surprise to us as it did to the people in the show but goddamn that gave me chills.
This is badass. Hansi did a fantastic job. Maybe the reworked version of I died for you on the Schaffer barlow project will feature hansi. I know they mentioned special guest. I honestly think that would be awesome. Both hansi and matt singing this in the studio
I still to this day think they should both do a project. I'd love to hear matt sing some blind guardian classics, like and the story ends.
I wept slightly when I heard his voice...the most amazing night of my life....all Hail Iced Earth, Blind Guardian and Matt Barlow!
Same here, friend. Definitely the best in-person concert moment I'm like to ever have.
Right there with you guys. I always wanted to see a show that moved me to tears, finally happened!!
I had the same reaction just seeing it on this video! Props to Malckeor's dad for capturing it.
I was like 5 feet from the stage in front of Jon....rewatching this and it takes me right back there. I hit record on my phone as soon as I heard Batlows voice, but the sound is shitty. I'm sure I will frequent this video many times throughout the rest of my life.....
You were there??????!!!!!!
Hansi singing this song is a DREAM, but featuring Matt is a f*king Blast. Timeless Classic song.....
Holy shit man. Whoever attended the show is lucky af
I am lucky AF. Last headling show on the tour. forked out the 40 for the T-shirt. was amazing LETS GO NEW YORK CITYYY!!!
It was a great experience.
Lucky fuck here, siiiiccckkkk show!!!
I was there too :D
Im super lucky
It’s amazing Matt sounds exactly the same in studio or live. Best male vocalist of all time.....bar none.
live sounds better yet
The moment when people realize that's actually him, the instant excitement in their voices and getting phones up in a rush; that there is a combination of true joy and love. It doesn't get any more genuine than this. Matt fucking Barlow, everyone.

If this should have taken place in Greece, it would have started the revolution
Greece needs a fucking revolu- fuck that, it needs a VIOLENT REVOLUTION right now!
Every single time I take a break form listening to Iced Earth and come back to hearing Barlow singing, I always get the chills on how amazing his voice is. And now I’ll be on an Iced Earth obsession for a while now.
Was at this show with my wife. I remember listening to Hansi one minute & all of a sudden going wait a minute is that Matt Barlow. Such an awesome experience
Yep, I need a Barlow/Hansi collab
Matt Barlow is the one and only one fucking Singer for ICED EARTH 😉
1:24 WHO Didnt recognize this epic legendary voice from the first Second!? Matt, we miss you, no disrespect against Stu Block!!
Stu Block carries the torch as well as anyone could and better than most, but Matt Barlow will always be THE Iced Earth vocalist to me. (Tim Owens was good too but honestly they sounded like a different band during his tenure).

Metal vocal duo

@@benediktsaurer381That doesn't really change him coming back too soon, only adds to the list of reasons why it was too soon
This actually brought tears to my eyes....
Matt Barlow's voice has seemed to have gotten better..
Just as good as alive in Athens.....
Grows better like good wine. 🍷
Goosebumps and Tears in my eyes by just watching this on RUclips...can't imagine what happened to me if i was there live
MisterVader it was completely mind blowing!! Words couldn’t describe it, and yeah I was moved to tears a bit.

My concert buddy and I saw them in Minneapolis. It was a great night.🤘
"The one and only Matt Barlow" indeed.
Saw Iced Earth several times back in the 90ies and early 2000 with Barlow. Would almost kill to do it again. Favorit singer of all time.
Wow, Matt is the spirit of Iced Earth, miss u man \m/
Oh f* yeah! Matt is my favorite singer ever. I had the opportunity to attend to an iced earth concert here in Brazil like a decade ago. Oh man!! This video brought tears to my eyes. Thanks!
I travelled all the way from South Africa to New York just to see them. Only had 2 nights in NYC. Thanks for the awesome memory!
Without a doubt my favorite moment from last night's show. It was so great to have a chance to hear Matt live.
The mother of all surprises!!!! I would have KILLED to be at that show, HOLY SHIT!!
I love Hansi, but this will always be Matt's song to sing, and this video proves it.
I love matt barlow and smiled when he started singing and walked on 😊👍👏 what a presence and voice 🤯🔥❤🤘😎
Truly the definition of epic. I'm not crying! YOU'RE CRYING! >
It's so beatifull...🤧
Not one pair of dry eyes at the venue that night…
1:24 When CLASSIC Iced Earth enters the room!
I was there and probably right next to you. I was standing right along the balcony. That was an amazing show and you perfectly captured the chaos when Barlow came out. Amazing.
I was there with my daughter. F'n outstanding show OMG ♥️🤘!!!!!!

Now that’s the proper crowd response Matt Barlow deserves. Greatest vocalist to ever grace my ears 🍻
I can't watch this enough. Unreal
Goosebumps! And this song features one of the best placed "Yeahs" ever!
I was lucky enough to attend the alive in athens shows that were recorder and also see them live in the Horror show tour and the one that followed Matt's return to the band.
The first two shows were simply unforgetable.
When he returned I think that he wasn't really there.
Seeing this now was just as good as it was in athens many wears ago.
His voice is even better I think and Hansi really gives a great support.
Asesome man, thank you for uploading.
I got to see Iced Earth in 2018 in Baltimore. Matt came out to sing Watching Over Me. Man, it was such an emotional moment for the crowd.
Goosebumps... Hansi and Matt... Just amazing
So cool I'm happy I watched IE with Matt some years back so amazing.
Yeah,me too!Have Seen IE with Matt a couple of Times,at least six or seven Times!Alone four Times at the DARK Saga Tour!And also BG! But this must bei an awesome Moment!Holy Fucking Good!But also all the best for Stu! He made a fantastic Job! Greetings from Germany!
What a great concert. I enjoyed this moment so much -- thanks for capturing it. /)
This really made me weep a little, its so great yet so sad we will never get another proper full-lenght Ice Earth performance with Matt behind the mic...
Wow-this is so incredibly lucky for that crowd.
Holy shit I have fucking goosebumps just from watching this. Would've absolutely lost my shit if I actually saw this live.
I saw this tour in Seatle.. there was no Matt Barlow lol
this is awesome.
thanks for posting.
I saw them in chicago and it was so amazing. I'm so sad we'll probably never have the opportunity again.
The two greatest vocalists of all time side by side. Unbelievable, glorious.
I was there right on the balcony probably right near or above you. It was an amazing show and Matt coming out was just incredible. Thanks for posting it!

I just cried, this is so fucking amazing. Thank you so much for sharing
Same...

Thank you for recording! I saw them the night before at the Palladium in Worcester, I wish he made an appearance there!
Lo mejor sería que Matthew Barlow se uniera a Demons & Wizards, y trabajen con esos dos grandiosos cantantes de ahora en adelante.
Amazing.. I just commemted on a video of a bunch of artists who covered Immigrant Song, sadly, D&W wasn't mentioned. They did the best cover imo by far. That whole album was awesome.
Lump in my throat. Every time.
I am beyond pissed I missed this show. You are unbelievably lucky to have witnessed such an epic moment
Greatest feat ever!
I could kick my own ass for missing this show! Had to bail last minute because of work...
magical and melancholy combined!
Thank you for sharing this recording. I teared up hearing Matt's voice and the crowd reaction. Saw Iced Earth during the Something Wicked, Horror Show, Crucible tours. Each were unforgettable experiences...
Legends
This is really incredible !So awesome to see Hansi and Matthew perform together .they should do that more often.
Shit, I'm crying
2 of the best vocalists in metal!
OMG! How did I miss this concert... kicking myself in the ass!
Amazing! Love and more Love!
Thank you 💪🏻🔥🎸🎸
Wowwwww what a show wish i was there
Holy shit. This is magnificent.
Incredible!!!!!
Matt Barlow... the best there is
Oh man. They both sound amazing. I have literal chills. So jealous you saw this live.
Omg, i think, i had cried a river, like the last time is saw Barlow with Iced Earth at Wacken 2011. 😭😭😭
Omg what a treat!!! Wow, amazing.
I was at this show and nearly cried tears once I heard Barlow from excitement
I actually did cry…
1:24 😍that crowd reaction
Two of the best vocals of the Power Metal
Fuck ya! Pure awesomeness!
BEAUTIFUL!
What 13 people disliked this... seriously. This is amazing. I wish I could have been there. Wow.
Oh my... I have no words .... Thanks Matt
It would have been even better if the title didn't say it and it came as much as a surprise to us as it did to the people in the show but goddamn that gave me chills.
You can't beat Barlow...fucken amazing
Freaking Barlow, god damn
Thanks for the video from Spain!
llorar de la nostalgia
Awesome, I was there but my phone recording of this got corrupted, so I thought I wouldn't be able to see it again. Thanks for posting!
Matt still sounds incredible. What an experience this must have been.
That! Was! Awesome! Many thanks for posting this!
This is badass. Hansi did a fantastic job. Maybe the reworked version of I died for you on the Schaffer barlow project will feature hansi. I know they mentioned special guest. I honestly think that would be awesome. Both hansi and matt singing this in the studio
Dam sick! wish I cuda been there
What in the fuck!!?!!!
La esencia de estos momentos ...increíble ...\,,/
I can't STOP smiling!!!!
I see Matt Barlow and my smile automatically appears
Brividi
I would have lost it too. Barlow is god!!
Thanks for this... \m/
Awesome moment!!
Unfuckingbelievable!!!!!!
