[@Bilmuriband]

AYO!!!!!! I Was literally on deaths door during this set, so fucking sick. But when ya look back I only remember T H E V I B E S

[@hendriknel01]

Set sounded sick!

[@GabiRoseMusic]

I remember thinking this was still the most fun I’ve ever had on stage even though we were all painfully ill

[@NostrilDaumus]

Y’all were incredible regardless. I’m legit rarely happier than I am at a ‘Muri show and this one was no different.

[@aaronthompson40]

I need my first muri show to happen soon. Please? This guy has a hog to absolutely mfin crank.

[@bassimprovjams3772]

So you were serious about the steroids I take it! Lol when you said you blew out your voice I kinda believed ya,

[@twiztidazzjokerz112]

Further proof a well placed saxophone makes every song 1000x better

[@personreanimation]

Oh my god, same with a nice steel guitar. Lap or Pedal.

[@KazKrabs]

Gabi Rose and Reese take these shows to new heights. Love their additions to the live show!

[@OneTapKap]

that saxxx is something elseeeee god it just hits the spot

[@Infinitespace04]

For real. As an 80s kid, sax was so corny. Bilmuri uses it so tastefully. I love how some of the guitar solos are transcribed and played on sax

[@benarthur9318]

Watching this is the happiest I’ve been in a while. More people need this band in their lives.

[@ONLYFEJMZZZ]

Holy shit my toughts exaclty bro, almost cried from happiness in some parts like wtf hahahahah

[@Combs05]

Gabi Rose might easily be the best thing that has ever happened to Bilmuri. :) Keep it up y'all.

[@AbsolutelyGoblinDeezNuts]

I never understood twitch simps and shit but like, man, all at once i fucking get it

[@andreiarca3024]

Oblvyn has done some great work for Bilmuri also... Pretty upset she wasn't playing bass for this show.

[@Combs05]

Hopefully we'll be seeing more of them both! :)

[@tonyvillarreal820]

anyone else think ABSOLUTELY sounds so good with the sax? wish there was a version of this on spotify or something

[@OneTapKap]

soooo fuxking good.. LIKE SOOOOOO GOOOOODDDDDDD. sleep token got me into jazzmetalhardcorerock. this is just amazing.

[@jdubs681]

That sax player adds such a wonderful touch to the live performances. Props to her.

[@Sanzen]

goddamn this band just radiates joy.

[@deathkloxify]

I went to over 60 shows this year, and this was still easily the best show ive gone to in a long time.

[@AyeSull]

FINALLY! I get to see my moment in video form all these months later. It's me, Johnny's emotional support human for the night, and that was honestly the greatest of my life at 46:50. 😭😭😭

[@ApolloMedia]

🫶🫶🫶

[@costelloIYAAYAS]

The entire time I was watching I thought, "no one is enjoying that show as much as her!" That moment was so cool and heartfelt. You love to see it!!

[@wingy252]

Man Thicc Thiccly goes so flippin hard live geeez Gabi and Reese just kills it on the during the outro

[@SleezyDoesit]

WTF have I stumbled across? This is so mf dope!

[@ApolloMedia]

Bless the algorithm 🫶

[@fuel10988]

I have this weird obsession with the Bilmuri Stratocaster formula.

[@yoavhanuka2772]

Yeah dude my approach to the strat really changed after I got to know Bilmuri

[@camdenwyeth316]

What's that mean? Very interested o:

[@fuel10988]

@@camdenwyeth316 They use Strats pretty much exclusively. Obviously, Bilmuri does a LOT of different things well, but the semi clean strat tone with the DADGAD tuning sort of gives them a signature sound in my opinion.

[@yoavhanuka2772]

@@camdenwyeth316 it’s a lot in the mindset so kinda hard to explain! I would say: 1. Sound wise- Leaning way more into the single coilish twangy sound with distortion, instead of trying to avoid it and make it a “round sound”. 2. Playing wise - The riffing style rhythmically and dynamically, and incorporating big chords with tensions

[@njsteere]

That tone does a lot for pulling off their heavy but catchy but danceable thing that makes Bilmuri their own unique thing. Bilmuri sounds like nothing else and so much else at the same time.

[@trollerbladdering]

Every single song gives me that feeling like the world will be okay in the end.

[@j.steven3411]

This band is the greatest thing to happen to music

[@rawrierawrrawr]

cant fucking waaiiittt to see u guys. been waiting for this moment for 7 yearrrsss

[@zach5659]

The gabby dab at 6:18 is iconic

[@dmndxdave]

dabbi rose

[@gnarcky6ix6]

80/20 skybeef needs that sax in the recorded version

[@anjodo1577]

Holy cow. Discovered this only yesterday. The best music I've heard in years! Big fan now. New album slaps as well!

[@chronicmango]

This band puts on an insanely fun, high energy show. Not taking themselves too seriously but absolute masterclass in crushing. Super fun crowdwork too. The goofball energy is awesome

[@prestonroy4639]

Incredible show!! This band needs to be discovered by the masses!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@ToxTx605]

This band is so sick. Gabi shreds

[@articat568]

This shit is electrifying, I haven’t seen a live set shot like this with the energy since kill switch did that set this world ablaze dvd special

[@deanestrada7040]

Spotify was nice enough to recommend Fluoride. I Loved it so much. Listened to the song all day. Regardless, I Came home from work that night just in a bad place. I had a six pack and just turned this live performance on. And the rest is history. This live performance Blew My Mind. I haven’t turned Bilmuri off now for 4 months. Their music literally makes my soul happy. And that is not an easy feat. Cannot Wait to experience them live for myself.

[@whalehands4779]

Bilmuri, in the last two weeks of finding him, has become daily. I've yet to hear a bad song. Love the mash of styles!

[@piercejenkins13]

I would kill to play bass live with these guys 😂

[@Fabandy88]

fuck yeah, thanks for sharing. I am still looking forward to watching you guys in Europe - come please. It doesn't matter which country, I'm gonna be there... without wipe myself....

[@seankrekel2452]

You saved me too, you saved me too! I am so thankful for the music you write! Please never stop, and get over here to washington soon! We would rock the house guaranteed!

[@aminx23]

Bilmuri is easily the pain relief pills that I needed ❤

[@CharlieChinchillaTV]

im a recovering addict who used oxy for 8 years 9 years sober in july and this shit brings me that same dopamine hands down.

[@justinhoskins5740]

That goddamn saxophone though. ❤️

[@berrytrl1]

Love to see a band that met in the gym. AS GOD INTENDED

[@thestoebz]

Bilmuri shows are actually the best

Now, this is the best video on the internet

[@DristXantrum13]

Yoooooo we were right on the stage in front of Johnny. My buddy almost got hit by his guitar. It was awesome

[@brandenmartinez6995]

THIS SHOW WAS FUCKING AMAZING. I HAD HIM ON MY SHOULDERS!!!!!

[@justincary6180]

This has to be the funnest live concert I’ve ever seen. I love watching a band that absolutely loves what they do. Johnny is such a talented human.. I can’t believe how good he sounds after blowing out his voice and on steroids. Just wow. And the rest of the band, the sax and the drums, all of it is soo good.

[@ApolloMedia]

True! He sounds even better in my Cincinnati video

[@Bloodlustian]

Johnny is such a charismatic young stud.

[@bassimprovjams3772]

Thank you for this! When we go to the shows it goes by so fast that it’s nice to relive it being at the show when Johnny talked about wanting to end his life I literally got super emotional and held back the tears I felt that in the heart

[@ApolloMedia]

Johnny legit chokes up during that segment of the Columbus show I just uploaded

[@Yodplods]

Bilmuri for Download 2024!

[@CharlieChinchillaTV]

The sax playing in thic thicly was so damn good I'm pretty sure that the horniest jazz I've ever heard lol

[@ericgardner5969]

[@FullMetalLuffy]

Hog Cranked and Cob Gob'd I'd be all over a sax remix of every Muri album that doesnt feature sax, especially the one that got me hooked, EGGY POCKET

[@som1alive]

I fucking love this band to death #nowipe

[@ryangregory3325]

had tickets to the utah show, was gonna go with my now ex, pretty much lost my want to go because we listened to bilmuri together, then she sold the tickets behind my back. so i'll just have CRANKMYMF'NHOG to this in the comfort of my H O M E.

@@ApolloMediaoh sweet baby. Did you catch bouta cashew or any new songs live. The San Antonio show was so effin hot. We almost died. It was like 98 inside the venue. Opened the side doors but to no avail.

No, I wasn't able to make it to any of the summer 2023 shows when they played the new singles 😔

Who’s the drummer during this?

[@ApolloMedia]

Jake Navarro played with them for the spring 2023 tour

[@drunkenyeknom]

The whole band is just talented. They’re only touring members pretty much right?

[@ApolloMedia]

Gabi does sax on the goblin hours record. I think Josh Manuel recorded drums for it too. I'm not sure who does the newer singles he's released during 2023/2024

[@fishingwithspencie]

This isnt the bill murray i was looking for

[@ApolloMedia]

It's the Bilmuri you need 💙

[@gregloeffler1764]

who is playing drums??? That aint Josh!
