I really didn't expect this was TRULY 2024. omg wtf with these dudes, they look AND SOUND almost the same as their 00's era. Prettydamngood performance! I would love to see The Darkness live. They really rock hard.
I fucking love this band so much. Back when they first came out I was working overnights at Wal-Mart and our manager would let us take radios from electronics and play whatever we wanted. I'd blast their albums and it would help me through all those shitty nights.
he switches to the neck pick-up where he has his volume pot turned down. Once he's going to play he switches back to the bridge pickup where he has his volume pot full open. No noise-gate needed just a flick on the switch and you're good to go.
Been following Justin's channel a lot over the last couple of years and haven't seen any recent performances apart from the Taylor Hawkins tribute shows. But man. Justin is sharp. And Rufus hits hard!
Really happy for them. I wasn't a huge fan back in the day but they were chewed up by an uncaring music industry and a public who were conned into thinking they were just a novelty act.
Same! I really wanted to go but couldn't get up North for it. Had a couple of younger mates from work go and when I told them I was jealous as I wanted to see The Darkness they looked at me blankly and said 'who?'. Ingrates!
He is such an amazing singer. I toned up my falsetto because of singers like justin. I had the range needed to refine and power up. Song is a GREAT practice track for any looking for power and very strong highs.
Justin Hawkins is the kind of rock star that I'll gladly fail to explain to my kids and then lean back another decade to experience their inevitable revelation.
That bassplayer is the most bassplayer a bassplayer can be.
his bass sounds very bassy
It's like a portal opened from 1982, he steps out and tells the band "I am here to assist you."
first time I ever see him and I think already he's a legend
He's certainly A Sharp
can i offer you the bassist from hot chocolate as a draw?
Pretty damn rare for a rock star to hold up that well 20 years later.
Especially considering Hawkins admitted that he basically existed on cocaine for a year after Permission To Land went platinum.
Justin is nearly 50 years old and looks and sounds like he's in his 30s. absolutely incredible !
Living a healthy lifestyle by all accounts.
When he was in his 30s he looked like he was pushing 50. 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah, getting sober at the right time helped my man out so much. Love to see it.
A vegan diet and a distinct lack of skag will do wonders for a man
True, thats drugs for ya@petermcdonna4160
I'm glad he's taken such good care of his voice over the years!! Cheers!
tf do you mean his high highs sound like ass
Voice?
The guys is 50 and is looking healthier than most 20 year olds!
wtf no he doesn´t look healthy at all lol@@mudcast
@@SkateAnnoy-b1sHow so? He's in excellent shape, you know how hard it is to get a six pack? Justin is ripped.
@@SkateAnnoy-b1s yes he sure does. Compare him to Pete Doherty for example, then you might understand how wrong you are lol
Finally he rides again
Again
@@Quakerman14 a proper comment on a comment
This is my gang, right here...
Never got off the saddle tbh. Not even once.
Justin sounds great. Sobriety definitely works for him.

They’re awesome shows, every single time 😎
Damn, that was fuckin good !!
Check out Easter is Cancelled, it's a great album.
This song is timeless.
NWOBHM meets Thin Lizzy meets Alice Cooper Band
i cant believe this is the best version of this killer song on youtube
It isnt...
@@FallenPhoenix86 I looked for a while. Please link a better recording

@@Tom_CruzSam Ryder and Justin Hawkins version, Brian May and the darkness comes to mind
Bass player’s suit is epic
Remarkable how good these sound after all these years, and with the song at full speed too.
Rock n' roll, I'm afraid you are still very much alive. Look how young the crowd is.
Hello 🤘🏻🥳
You’re afraid?
@@caprise-music6722I’m guessing it was a reference to the song rock n roll deserves to die
@@EverettVernon72 nope!your wrong its back alive !🤘🏻
@@caprise-music6722its a figure of speech.
I fucking love this band so much. Back when they first came out I was working overnights at Wal-Mart and our manager would let us take radios from electronics and play whatever we wanted. I'd blast their albums and it would help me through all those shitty nights.
This is epic. Great videography.. They look better than ever!
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is how it's done!
He really showed his guitar how much he believes In love
Justin!! Looking and sounding better than ever! Amazing.
Damn!!!! Still sounds like 2000's The Darkness!!!!!
Damn..that’s impressive!
The best Band of the Galaxy❤️🔥hugs from 👉🇧🇷
watching this just made me happy
Wowzas, there's no letting go, no 'fuck it, that'll do' attitude in this performance, everything at it's fullest, pretty damn impressive!
Band is great. Justin is awesome. Glad they still kicking ass!
Wow, there are still good musicians out there!
Wow he’s looking and sounding amazing
justin is seen as singer but he is also an amazing guitar player !!! n yeah has a lot of experience but he makes it look so freaking easy !!!
The noise gate on Justin's guitar is doing the work of its life
he switches to the neck pick-up where he has his volume pot turned down. Once he's going to play he switches back to the bridge pickup where he has his volume pot full open. No noise-gate needed just a flick on the switch and you're good to go.
Justin absolutely sends it in every performance!
Most underrated rock band ever.
A great concert - the best I have ever seen!
This wasn't exactly my style, but I will not argue that this dude absolutely rips! Killer vocals, and a shredder.
Wow, great performance... He still got the voice.
Ultima grande banda d rock. Beberam na fonte certa e continuam legais após 20 anos.
Nunca foram uma grande banda rock, sequer foram unanimidade entre os fãs do estilo. Fizeram relativo sucesso com essa música e depois sumiram.
Been following Justin's channel a lot over the last couple of years and haven't seen any recent performances apart from the Taylor Hawkins tribute shows. But man. Justin is sharp. And Rufus hits hard!
Nice Atkin Midhorn guitar, very cool 🤟
There just fucking awesome
Greetings from Poland
So good that it is actually live. Bravo Darkness.
This is AMAZING!
They still sound amazing!
Oh man! The energy in this 😮🎸🤘
The Darkness sounding fantastic!
Justin rocks harrrddddd
Wouldn't it be cool to trade places with him and play this song live, just once.
It has to be a good feeling.
Really happy for them. I wasn't a huge fan back in the day but they were chewed up by an uncaring music industry and a public who were conned into thinking they were just a novelty act.
It's so nice to see them having so much fun on stage ❤
Caught them on MORC cruise recently. They are very hard in concert. Straight up rock.
Reminds of the days of yesteryear when I was at festivals like this. The Darkness have still got it and are still very underrated. Top chaps.
Fanbloodytastic!
He's still got it!!!
What a Performance - BRAVO !!
Really nice recording!
Timeless songs!
This must've been the best 1-song concert of all times!
Tassie you were treated to an epic show. Well Done Management.
GREAT performance!
This song aged well. Its elite.
Wft awsome
epic performance
This is Led Zeppling and AC/DC "ready to go". God save rock & roll. Thx The Darkness
Going to see them next year!
Wish I could have seen this live! Long live The Darkness!
I'm so glad they're still together making music.
You're vocals are friggin incredible. I don't even like this song but I'm so impressed by the band I can't help but listen to it.
O~M~G Still the BEST!! Justin is JustAmaaaaaazing!!👍🏼😍💓💓💓💓

Mosntros sagrados da música!
Que maravilha de homem ❤
Awesome
came to 'mire the body. stayed for the whole song.
Tão bom quanto a 13 anos atrás!
F**KIN ROCKIN
Damn! I'm from Tassie and couldn't make it. Even better than I thought they would be! They played this SO fast compared to the album, I love it!
Same! I really wanted to go but couldn't get up North for it. Had a couple of younger mates from work go and when I told them I was jealous as I wanted to see The Darkness they looked at me blankly and said 'who?'. Ingrates!
@@juliabobin446 haha terrible! How can you NOT know the Darkness! lol
I cant stop this!
He is such an amazing singer. I toned up my falsetto because of singers like justin. I had the range needed to refine and power up. Song is a GREAT practice track for any looking for power and very strong highs.
Really enjoyed this. Really strong finish!
🔥🔥🔥👍🤘☮️🎸🎶
Very good!
Frankie the bass player looks like the bad guy out of Minions....I've been a baaaaad boy 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I never knew supervillain Balthazar Bratt played bass for The Darkness!
