- Steam Powered Giraffe performs their final song at the San Diego Zoo for 2012. Recorded by James Riley.
Video includes Steam Man Band Reprise, Brass Goggles, Rabbit referencing the Fanmily, and roses being thrown at the stage.
Dear god, they dressed like that, in full makeup, at the height of the summer, a few feet from Mexico. Real American heroes.
this part of cali doesnt actually get very hot
Rabbit: "Atune your ears to the grinding gears."
Audience: "..."
Me: "WHAT U DOIN START SCREAMIN IT'S THE MOST FAMOUS RABBIT QUOTE!!!"
Attuning their ears
7:56 The Spine's trenchcoat caught that rose perfectly!
First off, Rabbit's hips should be illegal. Second, I can not deal with the sex that is The Spine in that damn coat. Good Lord. Add absurd talent to this equation and you get one very hot and flustered me.
Yeah, right? The whole band oozes charisma and cool. I'd love to take Rabbit home with me. Spine just makes my heart skip a beat. Michael Reed is hot too. Jon just lost his love for the band. Sam makes up for it. I wish this line-up was still out there and still in sync....
@@vivianbrooks1939 Sam isn't there anymore either, I don't believe.
3 Of the best things about this video:
1. Rabbit's toaster, Jenny
2. Spine's awesome trenchcoat
3. Jon's deadpan face as he pretends to be a real part of the band.
***** I kid, I kid. Jon's one of my favorites. I just find his carelessness kind of funny.
To be honest though, you were kinda right. The Jon is my favorite robot but this performance is one of his final shows in his time with the band, and you could tell. He looks very disillusioned here, like he doesn't even want to be there. You could tell it was only a matter of time before he left. Always makes me wonder what changed.
Xaidcaveman He left to take up an acting career. I guess he didn't see himself performing like this for the rest of his days. Regardless, I think we all can tell that Hatchy has snuggled right on in and is going nowhere. :)
Mechanical Steam Why was he kicked out? :(
+Cσsmícα (steampunkmadame) I thought he left on his own accord, not kicked out
I hope I am not the only one who finds Rabbit to be so incredibly captivating in this specific performance. Such range!!!
Everyone's commenting that The Jon is pretty deadpan in this performance, but honestly midway through the song he gets all of his passion back lol
I love a The Jon. I miss him.
Wished he would of stayed but understand why he left
im sure he was super tired after performing every day for so long, i wouldnt blame him for being a bit flat
The Golden days of SPG. I think this was their best band line up
Absolutely. Peak SPG.
Agree 100%
I noticed something.. there's a little girl with long black hair in the front close to the end of the video. Every video I've seen from the past two years of them playing the Zoo has her in it. Admittedly, long black hair and that complexion are no rarities, but then I see the girl's... Mother? Big SIster? And I realize... those kids are some big fans. Something about that just warms my heart.
Maybe that's the girl Turn Back the Clock was written about
I freakin' love The Jon's robotic movements and that Sam's dance. Just priceless
Watching Jon try and perform with such little passion in tact hurts my heart...
He's my favorite, but him leaving was for the best, I guess. Hatchworth is a pretty kickin' automaton, too.
Fenteous
well guess what the fucking mustache robots gone too now
heck life
At least Hatchworth chose to leave, though.
And Bryan is pretty dope.
@@thebrutusmars the jon also chose to leave, but it was more of a scheduling thing.
@@tylermech66 He didn't choose to leave, he was kicked out but wasn't really in love with doing it anymore. He supported the decision and even helped console Bunny and David when they were getting backlash about it.
You can really tell this when The Jon kinda..... dropped...
@We Are it was sort of a mixed thing. They felt it was healthier for him and better for the future they had planned for the band, and he was already losing his passion for it and wanted to pursue photography instead so it was more of an agreement they all made than them kicking him out of him leaving. It was an issue they all ended up agreeing on.
It's sad to see the Jon be so uninvested in this performance that Sam and Michael were more into it than him.
yeah, watching his earlier stuff compared to this is heart wrenching, though if you watched the 10 year anniversary he seems really into it, so I suppose they made up their differences.
@@tylermech66 With the 10 year show, it was a 1 time show. It wasn't really that they had differences in anything other than priorities. Jon was not able to work with the increase in practices and shows. The zoo shows didn't help as it was daily. David and Isabella have shared stories about those days and getting the make-up off was a nightmare just to have to put it back on the next day and Jon had open sores because of it. Jon went on to work with what made him happy and we had Sam and Bryan since and all add to the band's personality.
My perspective is that for most of their performances that I have seen on youtube that The Jon was deadpan for most of the songs and there for the comedy between sets. I haven't seen any of the bits between songs in the last year where he was part of the band to know if he just did lack passion or not.
Bunny is a kick ass in ways I never thought possible. A flawless ending to a flawless summer of performances, I salute you- Steam Powered Giraffe♥
Rabbit: *takes out megaphone*
Audience, already knowing what's gonna be the next song: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
1:25 please tell me I'm not the only one that sawy Rabbit watering Jenny! XD
Rabit: **pulls out voice changer*
Everyone: yEEEeaSSSssss
I was here because I used to live in San Diego. Saw this band but didn't find them till today. Loved them when I was younger. Still do. So happy I had seen them then.
even pre-robo hatchworth is more energetic than the Jon.
Probably because he knew he was destined to be with the band longer than Jon. This is me coming from a place of not knowing the situation personally, but it's hard to keep your heart in it when you can see that people don't want to work with you anymore.
The Jon had a ton of energy for the most part. The drama that they were going through at the time really sucked the life out of him it seems. Pity.
@@Nylota other way round he didnt want to be there anymore. a kid on the way and daily shows needing all that makeup on
I’m so sad I couldn’t be there to se it back then. This band is so freaking AMAZING! I love rabbits robotic movements tbh she’s my hero of the band I so wish I was there 😭😭😭
LOOK AT HOW MUCH FUN IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE HAVING.
LOOK AT THEM.
Man, it's always fun going back to the older SPG, and seeing the missing members. I still miss Upgrade.
I loved Rabbit's "recovery" at the end, that was great. Such a fantastic performance.
Ok we know the Jon wasn’t too into it but his dancing was still g r o o v y
FR Its so mesmerizing
MOMMY!!! I WANT TO GO TO THE ZOO TO SEE THE ROBOTS!!!!!!!!
God i really would like to see and meet these guys unfortunately i live in a different country :( too expensive to go see them but im here listening and watching guys :)
The Jon will always be my favorite!!!
Holy crap The Jon CAN SLIDE!!!! O.O
I love that guys outfit. The one with the black guitar and fadora
That is David Bennett, aka The Spine. If you think about it, he's really the backbone of the band.
@@thegrimhorseman after all, that's his... backstory.
badumtssssshhhh...
@@thegrimhorseman THAT WAS A PUN!!
@@cryptid4300 nice catch! Any more jokes about his stage name in this comment section and I'd need a chiropractor.
@@thegrimhorseman yeah i almost threw my back out laughing!
Rabbit in every video: hey can i eat this, is it edible?
Also Rabbit in every video: ... pbbttt *spits out the thing he tried to eat* nope
It is amazingly weird to look back at these old videos and see how much Rabbit has changed over the years.
I used to have the biggest weirdest crush on Rabbit.... Now Bunnys a female I still love her but not in a crush kinda way haha ^.^
+Llivics it's definitely the tight pants and the hip swaying that does it for me :3
I was a weird crush on Rabbit both now and then. Lol
Llivics, I totally agree
Everyone went crazy for Rabbit, man and woman.
same
Beth, can I please hug you because THANK YOU FOR RECORDING THIS AND POSTING IT IN HD OH MY GOODNESS SO BEAUTIFUL.
Oh, I was talking about the megaphone. @2:35 min Rabbit says: "You're 2 yrs old now little buddy, you haven't broke yet. I jinxed it didn't I? Must be my lucky Rabbit's foot."
If you haven't seen the tenth anniversary show I highly suggest it, SPOILER
it's a WAY better send off for The John, he looked like he was having a lot of fun.
Man... The Jon looks like he just wants to go home and sleep. If I'm not mistaken, this show was near the end of his career with Steam Powered Giraffe, so that may explain his obviously low effort.
Steam powers giraffe are so good that there is no word to tell you how good you are
The most adorable thing was Sam Luke dancing around and Michael catching that rose. He jsut looked so happy to get one
the Spine's range never fails to impress.... Well done guys :-)
Honeybee is now over 1,000,000 views in less than a year. The FANmily is still trying to get it viral. It's gaining 3-4000 views a day now.
Rabbit's toaster!!! :3
The Nerdy Girlie Toaster life o3o
The Nerdy Girlie They make a joke about that toaster xD Her name is Jenny xD
It should totally be Jimmy! Jimmy the microwave and Jenny the toaster!
i loved it. wish I had been there. I'm new to the spg experience and I'm blowen away. there freakin brillant. the concept and there voices just kick major robot booty. awesome.
Totally jinxed it, because didn't it break like a couple of shows later?
As a kid living in San Diego with a zoo membership during this time, Steam Powered Giraffe playing at the zoo was one of the best parts for me. I had their CDs in my Tinker Bell boombox and went to see them nearly each week. Now they've got hundreds of thousands of listeners on Spotify and I'm an adult, but seeing clips of them on Instagram or hearing one of their songs in a playlist is honestly so nostalgic to me. I lived outside of San Diego when they stopped performing, and I remember just how sad I was when I came back and they didn't play anymore
College has been taking my time up lately but I just remembered how much this band meant to me this summer. And how listening to them was the only thing that cheered me up my third day of college when I was feeling overwhelmed and down. I freaking love SPG. It's quite emotional to see the end of this summer's journey (their journey, but one the fans followed.)
8:09 Mr. Reed almost immediately putes the rose into his shirt! Also, at 8:06 Hatchworth starts putting as many flowers in his mouth as he can, slowly one by one, but he tries!
These guys are absolutely amazing! So much talent! They made our night time trips to the zoo very memorable!!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!!
This was when Rabbit was shining. Since her transformation the personality seems to be gone. I am happy that she is getting to be what she wants to be, but the things that made her stand out are over. The fire is not there anymore.
Spine and Rabbit's performance here have aged pretty well
They threw roses at the end *cry*
Rabbit, you're not supposed to eat the roses XD
oh my god, Jenny. Cutest thing.
this is absolutely my favorite song of all time. I listen to it every day. this and several others by these guys. they should be way more famous with live perfection like this. steam powered giraffe is "dinner and a show" I am a lifetime subscriber.
Sam. Oh my god Sam. That was amazing.
Brilliant! I'm so in love with this band (swoon)
First time I've seen these guys:. I'm impressed.
i love their costumes...i need spines coat in my life!!!!
Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry?
will I ever be something with feelings to hide?
@@kadenvoodoo2053 or am i just a boiler with nothing inside???
Jon reminds me of someone who would play in queen or the beetles
Just gotta love Rabbits movements XD
New Favorite Band and New Favorite Song
No matter his mood, The Jon is constantly groovy
Everyone is so afraid to say rabbit sucks now. Rabbit sucks. Average singer now
Still watch this l and miss the original 3
OMG! Simply spectacular!!!!
It gives me anxiety how there are so many smudges and fingerprints are on The Spines guitar 😂
He wearing gloves so the guitar okay my friend 😂😂
The more robotic movements fit so well.
Thanks so much for uploading this. It's too bad that I couldn't be there one more day but this is good too X)
It's funny because A) All the bots are bald to some degree and B) You can't seem to spell Jon's name right despite your apparent love for him.
Seriously, it's fine to have an opinion, but spamming ignorant hatred on every freakin' video is not the way to go. It's probably not good for the soul. Have a hot coffee and think about your life choices or something.
Sweet. I just saw a 2 year old vid with "Upgrade" She was Cute and Funny! They need to get a vid to go viral. and roll with it!
ahem, honeybee, 10 million views
boom
Aw man, I wish I could have been there.
Rabbit, what are you trying to eat around 8:16? Whatever it is, I don't think you're supposed to be eating it ...
I love how reed is into this
The Spine needs to start over. This ran it's course. Say goodbye to rabbit. Bring back The Jon and someone who is consistent.
i love how rabbit gives jenny water also at 1:28. OTP
your videos are amazing thank you so much for posting! i can't believe they showered the stage with roses i wonder what went through their minds +_+
i can totally imagine them all blushing underneath that makeup. xD
Bloody brilliant
I am failing to deal with how adorable that was.....
I live 2 hrs from this place. Why...Why did I not go this past summer?!
How can rabbit be what made the band turn so fast into turning the band into whatever.
Nope, Jon's last performance was at the Airspace Museum in Texas.
God I love them so much
flowers aren't rabbit food Rabbit, of course you couldn't eat the roses... silly bunneh
omg sam's dance and run back to the drumkit 😭😭
I started crying. I wish I could have been there. Oh lordy the tears won't stop.
Oh man I wish I was there TT__TT curse this god damn ocean!!!
Beautiful!!!
0:42 Spine is waving at people but there was way too many lol
I kept trying to figure out what rabbit was eating, then i realized she was mimeing it.
I want real robots and they act the same way. Please.
They are so gooooood
I'm sorry but rabbits growl at 4:00...mmmm~
How were people not sobbing during this?
Realized I was at the San Diego zoo this summer (age 10) and probably walked right past these guys
72 consecutive days? That might have been difficult for someone who had other jobs as well, and a family. As much as they loved their work, I bet that was tiring.
Really!? I was, like, openly bawling :'D
warning, theres some arguments abt the jon in the replies in this comment section, beware
It's so heated I just want to enjoy some Automatons
Are they related to the dude in spaceballs? Pizza the huts henchman robot?
God Damn rabbit I love rabbit
