Post a youtube link of a band you like being awesome live.

I've picked 90's band Jellyfish on Jools Holland, which is a bit obscure but they totally nail the song despite the complex instrumentation and ludicrous harmonies!

I wouldnt say they nailed it but pretty incredible nonetheless


That Bright Eyes

one is fucking ace! Def my favourite BE song - thanks!


This performance gives me chills.

The guy who bows - then the one who spits at him... it's so powerful, it almost seems planned. It would have been amazing to be there.


Epic.

MATCHING GREEN TRACKSUITS

Good Elliott Smith link though.

It seriously is, he's standing up too!

However I accept their cheesy pop-ness is not for everyone. So I'll offer up this:

Vinnie Paul's drumming is ridiculously good in that.

Live music doesn't get any better than this, for me

totally trumps the Speaking In Tongues version, and is totally beautiful.
