Wow. The audience at a killing joke gig these days certainly isn’t the same as it was in the 80s. Oh wait, they are the same! They’re just old! Man we used to go absolutely fucking crazy at KJ gigs back in the day. Wouldn’t be able to do it now….

@@JeremyBlant I sit in hope and wait for Geordie to strap on a 2nd bass and they play Zennon.... fucking devastating song... On reflection, he'd probably need one of those bass/guitar doublenecks to play it properly... EDIT: Nevermind.
Geordie's presence onstage was so cool, Sometimes having a cig and just rocking out on the guitar. I wish I could've seen KJ live while he was alive. R.I.P.
To call Killing Joke a punk band is doing them an injustice. They are so much more than just a punk band, or a post-punk band. They are one of the most amazing, original, influential and legendary rock bands of my generation who unlike most aging rock bands who've lost the plot years ago, KJ have only improved with age and experience. They defy sub-genre categorization really. I'm more of an extreme black & death metalhead 99% of the time, but I worship KJ.
@Bob Mitchell Not true (technically; there was a short-lived group that grew out of an unaired episode of The Flintstones where Betty Rubble played guitar approx. 14% better than Geordie...and since it was 1962, her ES-295 only cost her $40...).
No. This was a good show but there are a couple videos on YT of their 25th Anniversary show at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London 2005 that was an absolutely incredible show, much better than this one, the crowd was much better too. I must've watched that one 50 times.
yes, he is indeed a great bassplayer, but what the fukk does that penetrant term `underrated` mean?!? he didn`t get enough attention by an audience? there`s nobody or `not enough` people in the world appreciating his playing? and if so, did u count them all? it`s the old thing about ratings and arts. it`s simply absurd - i`ll never get it - anyway, CHEEEERZ!!!
Seriously, single digits. I mean, do electronic bands like Human League and Erasure count? There's Killing Joke, Bahaus, U2 and....? Rolling Stones unchanged since 1994, sure, but not 'original.'
By geting old they sometimes turn a little repetitive.They come from the seventies with their industrial core punk metal hypnotic music and their pagan magic meanings that sound like coming from the ages ! No requiem!
Are you one of the wankers standing at the front not moving throughout the entire gig? Worst audience at a Gathering ever. You should be ashamed of yourselves showing KJ such disrespect.
Quite alot of hate on this thread for Jaz and the boys. Jaz has always been a musical madman. He has been known to play a Killing Joke set and then go right over to the Prague Symphony Orchestra....where he is a composer in residence....and conduct an orchestra of all of his own original compositions. Award winning compositions, I might add. He is a multi platinum classical composer who just happens to be a punk rock freak of majickal nature. If you do not get it, that's what you get for reading someone else's mail.......
Thank you for relaying Jaz's impressive credentials as a musician. Most people haven't a clue to his genius. He is brilliant, as is the entire band. IMHO, the hate really seems to come from a place of deep jealousy. Some people may laugh at my statement, but those who are familiar with the lyrics, the musical compositions and the fact that they have stayed original after 40 years, is another most impressive hidden fact.
Last time they came to Los Angeles, they had John Markovich doing their sound! He did sound for the Ramones, like 20 years...hadn’t seen him since ‘96...very Bitchen gig
I don’t remember this tour coming through LA/WeHo at all. Plus, I went to see TOOL at Staples later that year ONLY because these guys were the support act. And, thanks to L.A. traffic, I missed their entire set, of course.
Interesting how they chose the mantra incantation used in Stanley Kubricks Etes wide shut, a good choice for setting the mood. Kubrick was killed for the secrets he revealee in that movie and 18 minutes were taken out of it that we will never knkw what exactly for. Anyhow this is awesome!
OMG yes, the Roxy! I'm a New Yorker and I feel like I missed my chance to see anything at the the Roxy in L.A. But I have seen late Killing Joke twice. :-)
The fact that Geordie can play a big hollow body guitar, and with P90 pickups, and with such heavy tones, and not get any uncontrollable feedback from it, is an achievement in itself......I'd hate to think how many pairs of socks he had to stuff into the f - holes to kill the feedback 👍
Yep, I'm a SoCal native, Hollywood audiences are SHIT. all there trying to look cool, and pretend they are hip. O.C., San Diego or even shows in L.A. proper are better energy. I only see shows in Hollywood if it's the only option.
The audio here is ruined by a compressor on the master channel - you can hear it when they launch into a song, for a second or two it sounds killer then the volume drops and the sound is flat as fuck. This is why the crowd isn't responding I reckon, over compressed live music sucks. Using a compressor in this manner is such a lazy technique for live audio, basically brickwalling
Not quite sure of the meaning of the young lady in her underwear during the last track, or her taking her top off, but I suspect it is an important one...
I saw them on Tuesday in Denver, they were interesting and I've also never heard of them, apparenty they've evolved into many genres and even we're big influencers of Metallica, NIN, Tool, and other bands. Dave Grohl drummed on Killing Joke (2003) and some say Cobain stole the "Eighties" Riff on "Come As You Are" by Nirvana.
@@Given2Fly7173 Yeah the show itself wasn't the best but I checked them out on RUclips for recordings from albums and was interesting. Hadn't heard of them before and seem to have all sorts of genre's sounds
@@Given2Fly7173 That's cool. I thought they were a new band when I first saw them billed for the tour and then when they came out I was like...I don't think they are a new band at all. haha I did read they have had the original members for 40 years now. That's pretty bad ass.
What a band. RIP Geordie, unique playing x
Indeed!

Very extremely underrated band. They got better and better with each album.
RIP Geordie Walker
Geordie? Most underrated guitarist in modern music! Clever clever player, huge sublime sound 👍🎸🎶🎶
absolutely true, Requiem and the bridge to chorus in Love like Blood are great examples of his genius!
100%.
@Bob Mitchell Not true (technically; there was a short-lived group that grew out of an unaired episode of The Flintstones where Betty Rubble played guitar approx. 14% better than Geordie...and since it was 1962, her ES-295 only cost her $40...).
His tone. One of a kind. We're blessed to have him.
Peace to all
He play the same old guitar since 1979... he doesn´t want another one lol
Their newer songs are as fantastic as their old stuff. Superb band.
great mix, Geordie's guitar sounding like a chainsaw cutting through steel, simply maginficent
i like that ...
Haha yeah your right, own sound,, luvvit bruv
I was there. One of the best bands ever.
nah ... the only
Very good sound for this upload ! The Best Band Ever !
Probably the best live KJ show ever recorded ... well done
No. This was a good show but there are a couple videos on YT of their 25th Anniversary show at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London 2005 that was an absolutely incredible show, much better than this one, the crowd was much better too. I must've watched that one 50 times.
The synergy between Jaz and Geordie is sublime
Youth is such an underrated bassist. Simple, groovy lines.
yes, he is indeed a great bassplayer, but what the fukk does that penetrant term `underrated` mean?!? he didn`t get enough attention by an audience? there`s nobody or `not enough` people in the world appreciating his playing? and if so, did u count them all? it`s the old thing about ratings and arts. it`s simply absurd - i`ll never get it - anyway, CHEEEERZ!!!
@@markuselipka Point taken but it can also be a description from a personal point of view. Well, opinons.
@@markuselipka Your comment is underrated ;)
Fuck off yoof. Know it's you!😆
he's in 4BE2's "One of the Lads" video, bean a fan of Youth since '78
Not many bands can lay claim to having all original members from 40 years standing now... KJ is one of them
Their peers, U2?
but they haven't had the same lineup the whole time ...
@@shanebrown4146 Raven was not an original member. Youth was their first baas player. But indeed, he was out of the band quite a while.
Raven was the better bass player.
Seriously, single digits. I mean, do electronic bands like Human League and Erasure count? There's Killing Joke, Bahaus, U2 and....? Rolling Stones unchanged since 1994, sure, but not 'original.'
I love the PIT they have going on during The Wait. I have always thoght that song goes hard ASF!! 🤘🤘🤘
THE WORLD NEEEEDS MORE OF THIS BAND. KILLING JOKE KICKS ASS.
By geting old they sometimes turn a little repetitive.They come from the seventies with their industrial core punk metal hypnotic music and their pagan magic meanings that sound like coming from the ages ! No requiem!
JUST saw them in Chicago - ears are STILL ringing!
The hum beyond awesome 👍👍👍👍👍 one of the many favorite song i love from KJ 🤘🤘🤘🤘💯💯💯
Theyre so amazing.
40+yrs a huge fan.
Eyes wide shut sound at the intro gave me chills
Such a brilliant piece of music!
Gave me indigestion...
You can see my head throughout the whole show. You can't tell from this video but there was amazing energy. Thank you so much for posting it.
Are you one of the wankers standing at the front not moving throughout the entire gig? Worst audience at a Gathering ever. You should be ashamed of yourselves showing KJ such disrespect.
@@duncanarnold4019 LOL. When I was in the pit at the Palladium (Los Angeles) in 1990, you were still sucking your thumb.
Great concert!
Quite alot of hate on this thread for Jaz and the boys.

If you do not get it, that's what you get for reading someone else's mail.......
He is also a writer, poet and philosopher. He wrote a book called "Letters from Cythera".
Wow!!!...impressive! He surely demands a presence and has not lost his magic over the years and his voice is still as good as ever even now.

Great gig 😊
absolutely tremendous ...love like blood
Классный концерт ! Был на них в Париже. Замечательно ! Мастера!
Incredible display of human power and passion. C. 6/2022
RIP Geordie Walker you will be missed.😢
One of two of the most original and authentic groups for people in the know . . . The other is Crass !!!
Great clarity on the image and sound!
I love to see them playing 😊
Georgie! Georgie! One of the best guitarists ever!!!!! His guitar sound is legend!
So is Geordies.
Im shocked no phones 😂😂😂😂 that's the way it should be enjoy the show 💯
All right... I guess I'll go ahead and show up in time to hear these guys in Tulsa.
Is that Ozzy? Lol
Lol same, trying to decide if I wanted to as well.
I did not last night before Tool. I may sneak in a little early tonight to catch them for night two. Couple of cool sounding tunes on here.
i did before Tool and they were awesome
They blew the lid off the BOK center IMO.
Last time they came to Los Angeles, they had John Markovich doing their sound! He did sound for the Ramones, like 20 years...hadn’t seen him since ‘96...very Bitchen gig
Total invasion is beyond killer 💯🤘🤘🤘 that whole album is beyond killer 💯🤘🤘🤘
Killer version of Tension..
Always be one of my favourites
May l also add, total loyalty to one another .respect and honour, rare these days.respect
Great Show Great Vídeo!
thank you
01:27:27 Love Like Blood ---- I had the idea that the public didn't know this song. Or would the audience actually be a bit apathetic?
I don’t remember this tour coming through LA/WeHo at all. Plus, I went to see TOOL at Staples later that year ONLY because these guys were the support act. And, thanks to L.A. traffic, I missed their entire set, of course.
Jaz beyond awesome Singer 🎤🎤🎤🤘🤘🤘🤘
what a paralyzed crowd. but i guess that´s the time we live in.
i love how coleman stuck out his middle finger to the crowd at about 7:30.
Considering London in March…it’s a bucket list thing…
Amazing band 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Once again RIP brother 💯🎸🎸🎸🎸💜💜💜💜💜
Interesting how they chose the mantra incantation used in Stanley Kubricks Etes wide shut, a good choice for setting the mood. Kubrick was killed for the secrets he revealee in that movie and 18 minutes were taken out of it that we will never knkw what exactly for. Anyhow this is awesome!
The mansion scene from eyes wide shut as the intro is interesting
turn your phones off and absorb ypurself in the music and the moment
How am I supposed to do that? I'm watching it on my phone
@dunce funce DO IT!! FIND OUT!
@@duncefunce1513 I believe he said, "ypurself"; totally different meaning...
Toute notre jeunesse...génial !!!
OMG yes, the Roxy! I'm a New Yorker and I feel like I missed my chance to see anything at the the Roxy in L.A. But I have seen late Killing Joke twice. :-)
killing Joke? It is one of the best bands in our world! Killing JOKE!
what did u shoot this with?
RIP Geordie. It still hurts
The fact that Geordie can play a big hollow body guitar, and with P90 pickups, and with such heavy tones, and not get any uncontrollable feedback from it, is an achievement in itself......I'd hate to think how many pairs of socks he had to stuff into the f - holes to kill the feedback 👍
they sound so fucking great!
No millenium?
killing joke, on their terms only, under ground our joy. Fucking great band. makes me happy x
no one can replace Raven on bass, but with all due respect
Youth is the original and by far their best bassist.
Been a fan since 84 i was 17 years old my ex-girlfriend turned me on to them! Beyond awesome band 💯💯💯 i love how they expose our government 💯💯😁🤩
Jaz is in the zone 💯🤘🤘🤘🎤the whole band is in the zone 💯💯💯
Geordie , you will be missed. RIH
Does anyone know what amps Geordie is using in this video?
selfdecap, it looks like his equipment is very different than the 2 huge amps he used to use with a stereo chorus
@@thomasfokas He still uses the same bell chorus/doubler units but I was wondering what the small amp head is.
Probably Depends! And a little Viagra once in a while.
they are BluGuitar Amp 1 (mercury editions?)
together with the Bell Doublers
The loud kind
How is that crowd not one large mosh pit? When I've seen KJ in concert, the floor was a crush of slamming bodies throughout most of the set.
(And one of those shows I saw was during this tour.)
Hollywood. They don't wanna smear their makeup.
Yep, I'm a SoCal native, Hollywood audiences are SHIT.
all there trying to look cool, and pretend they are hip.
O.C., San Diego or even shows in L.A. proper are better energy.
I only see shows in Hollywood if it's the only option.
This is great.
Jaz's jumpsuit reminds me of Michael Myers 🎃🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Back in the 80s we were louder then this 💯💯💯💯🤘🤘
Thank you..Thank you
Geordies mix sounded great on this, shame the crowd looked a bit lost though.

Really noticeable dropoffs. Lazy desk technique.
Dude i would have lost it with Tommorow's World what's with the dead crowd.
I wished that they would have played winter gardens Rubicon millennium new Cold war
RIP Geordie...massive influence
Big Paul : MasterPlayer
RIP Geordie 💯🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💜💜💜💜💜
"We are all living in a state of perpetual stress."
Jaz Coleman.
in a field of their own
Something weird about his microphone technique and the FOH not compensating. Result: No vocals on the chorus of some of the mot known songs?
My favorite song so far is timewave
what a bunch of zombie fans.... totally bizarre, I don't think they appreciate what they witnessed
Best psycodelic rock still in scene!
Not quite sure of the meaning of the young lady in her underwear during the last track, or her taking her top off, but I suspect it is an important one...
Freedom
eyes wide shut!
Man i wished that they would hsve played another bloody election Jana
I fucking love Jaz Coleman
Amazing, Coleman rules...
@Jürgen I prefer Grey Poupon...
GRAZIE FRATELLO..I LOVE THIS FUCKING BAND
Great footage! Thank you! I have to say though - WHAT A LAME AUDIENCE! GET UP AND ROCK!
Looks like Cliff Richard's audience.
First exposure to these guys was during the Tool show on Wednesday. I've never heard them before. Glad I was able to be exposed to them.
I saw them on Tuesday in Denver, they were interesting and I've also never heard of them, apparenty they've evolved into many genres and even we're big influencers of Metallica, NIN, Tool, and other bands. Dave Grohl drummed on Killing Joke (2003) and some say Cobain stole the "Eighties" Riff on "Come As You Are" by Nirvana.
but why? I saw them open up last night....they're so horrible. Granted the "music" is alright but this singer dude is horrendous!
@@Given2Fly7173 Yeah the show itself wasn't the best but I checked them out on RUclips for recordings from albums and was interesting. Hadn't heard of them before and seem to have all sorts of genre's sounds
SwashBuccaneer so I checked with a friend of mine so grew up in the UK. Apparently these guys are I've of the pioneers on 80s punk.
@@Given2Fly7173 That's cool. I thought they were a new band when I first saw them billed for the tour and then when they came out I was like...I don't think they are a new band at all. haha
I did read they have had the original members for 40 years now. That's pretty bad ass.
Blimey - wake up USA - this crowd is frozen.
this is a proper crowd ruclips.net/video/vm-KQSaW8Gs/видео.html
They are in shock. Killing Joke is just stagnate live these days.
Don't forget, it's Hollyweird. They're too busy searching on Tinder....
They're probably stoned and KJ has put them in a trance.
Come on ppl clap ur hands get into it!!!! I did!!!!
they became more creepier as the years go by. their musical evolution ages like wine
Creepier? please explain.
What is wrong with this crowd?! They are clearly kicking ass and nobody is bothered to show some enthousiasm.. fuck.
Still the best best live....and studio.
RIP Geordie 😔
Crowd ???? at the latest when they starts with Autonomous Zone they have to escalate !!!! and whith pssyche the building has to burn
The version of Pssyche here is sick.
