I saw Swans in Detroit at Traxx back in the early 80's when they were still doing their OG hard stuff. The entire crowd was just standing there silent most of the show. Sometime in the middle of it, I heard the girl directly in front of me turn to her Boyfriend and say, "I'm scared". Awesome gig.
Thank you so much for recording this night! I really wanted to hear these songs again to see what i've missed, and relive my first Swans concert. Thank you so much
80 MINUTE BEGGAR IS REAL
Live album got confirmed. Can't wait.
Yes!
Brooklyn night one was 90+. A surreal experience to say the least.
Yooo, I was up front staring up at Gira. Made for a very wild experience as my first show.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! My first show and it was everything I wanted it to be. Glad to have it here on RUclips❤
I was there one of the best shows I’ve ever been to
No problem!!

Awesome gig.
That's what it's all about, do do! It's been a long strange trip for Swans, to be sure. Beautiful journey.
Amen bro, first Swans gig was either Oslo or Roskilde late 80s.
Birthing is UNREAL live
birthing starts at 2:27:35, just for correction purposes
Also, I swore the beggar was going to transition into the apostate at 48:22 when I was there. I was freaking out haha

Glad you enjoyed it!
The new songs are just getting better and better!
The chord change around 1:43:00 is so beautiful
Thx
You’re welcome.
Fantastic video! Is there any chance you could send me the uncompressed video file? I'd love to add this to my Swans archive.

does he spit in his hand and smack himself at this show too 😭
What is the song that starts at 59:20?
All setlists indicate that that was still part of The Beggar.
2:40:35 BA BA
So sad i missed this. ADHD got the best of me and by the time i looked (over a year ago mind you) the tickets were all sold out :(
I’m pretty sure this show wasn’t announced until last December
They played the same venue a year ago and it also sold out, hence the confusion.
