BOSTON Live 2013 (Full Concert)

[@Supercell725]

I was in college when that first album hit the radio, it hit campus like a tidal wave. I’m 64 now and still listen to their music daily , it never gets old.

I'm 61 and still jamming out to Boston as if we were still in that Era.

I'm a little bit behind you folks (52) but I wholeheartedly agree- NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL GET OLD I could listen to that first album every day and never get tired of it Listen to ALL Boston music A LOT never never gets old

The Boston album is my favorite album of any band... Thanks, Brad, RIP...

Walk On is amazing too

Tom Scholz still one of the coolest guitar tones ever!

[@rafaelcarmany463]

I miss Brad. Who doesn't. But this man, whoever he is, sounds fabulous. Great Voice!

[@davidstewart4310]

Tommy Decarlo

[@Kiwigucci]

I totally agree. When I opened this link, I first thought it WAS Brad. He’s damned good.

[@magneto7930]

This guy, Tommy, was doing karaoke with Boston songs. He sent out a cassette and Tom heard it thinking it was Brad. He immediately found him and asked if he wanted to join Boston. He's not Brad, but he's a great vocalist.

[@kbinco]

I give the new singer kudos for his efforts. I saw Boston in the late 70s, terrific. This goes out to my friend who died 2 years ago today; I was at that late 70s Boston concert with him.

[@johndelvisco4528]

I'm sure Brad is smiling with acceptance and proud that finally they have someone to carry the music. Tom wrote the songs and I know they belong to him but as far as I am concerned Brad has the banner and voice of this band. He can never be replaced but it can be carried on with respect and this guy is one of the best I've heard so far. RIP Brad, they are doing you justice my friend. Been a fan of Boston since I first heard them when I was 9 yrs old. Boston was the first ROCK band that I can remember being exposed to and they still hold a high regard in my music collection today. They are timeless and every song brings back a memory.

[@dwainsellers6453]

I love walk on it was awesome another one of my favorites is Holly Ann

[@dwainsellers6453]

Cool the engines is another good one

That´s exactally what i think of Boston, since i heard them when i was 8 years old i became a Boston fan, and you put the rights word, they still hold a high regard in my music collection today too!

[@KarlVPence]

Saw them a few years ago in St Augustine, FL, 4th from the front with Tom right there....what a fantastic experience. Props to Tommy D. IT WAS A GREAT TIME.

[@70stunes71]

Sounds great ...hes doing a great job singing those old boston tunes . glad i grew up in the 60s & 70s !!!!

[@Steve-ix2un]

Look at the beginning, the singing began before he started to sing, lip syncing.

[@buzzbuzzerson3592]

Reading the comments and can't believe it. This guy is awesome. If I was just hearing it and not seeing it, I'd think it was Boston live in the 70's.

[@eddynevvy]

Boston music rises once again

[@mickdeedeefoster1234]

I haven’t played a Boston song in years, This was incredible, the vocal work live and harmonies was insane. Tight band as you can get.

[@InstrumentalJourney]

Incredible band still ..new vocals are awesome. ..Tommy DeCarlo is great,☆☆☆.......happy for them big time..☆

[@americanhorseman]

Greatest rock band in the world! I remember playing this 8track tape in 1978....now I'm 67...wow...they still sounded awesome in 2013...memories

[@josephnewburgh8531]

😆 I had a Panasonic 8track player, it had about 12 "d" cell batteries in it, I wore out my don't look back, and Boston tapes on it! Lol

[@davidleeman8966]

I remember coming off a 3- month patrol with my first submarine experience.. Bostons third stage album was out and I listened to it while going home on leave. What a great album and great times !

[@jasonpicano1199]

I saw them twice in the 80s and was blown away both times. No way anyone could ever compare to Brad Delp but since We can't have Brad, this guy is the ONLY one that even comes close to That Voice.

[@danielavila6695]

I totally agree with you Jason, NO WAY!!! Brad was the SIGNATURE OF BOSTON!!!

[@PunchboxRockers]

Tom Scholz is legendary!

[@stevensmith8538]

Brads voice sounds especially fresh, vibrant and clear this night. Wow, the crowd was so into it and happy with the bands sound this night. Not long after Bradley did the unthinkable and this affected me greatly. A stark reminder of the problems Depression can cause with someone's outlook on life.. Love you Brad your one of my few vocal heroes!❤

[@etech52]

Brad died in 2007, Tommy DeCarlo is singing for Boston in this concert.

Did you know Tom S, recorded THIS WHOLE ALBUM .....BY HIMSELF, PLAYING ALL THE INSTRUMENTS....IN HIS BASEMENT!!!!! Tom IS Boston. Period.

[@tonymertz3852]

John Howard he is a MIT grad and was an engineer for Polaroid. Brad Delp's voice was phenomenal though. This guy does sound like him and that is not the original drummer.

Except the drums and vocals

[@formesumer8911]

The singer does sound like Brad Delp no matter what people may say. After all he is not supposed to be 100 pc Delp. Overall the music does sound Boston and that's all we die hard fans want post Brad Delp So lucky to still have them on stage in the 21st century.

[@alphawolf6374]

People have always get some negative bulshit to say because they're jealous and they're scumbags and they just can't handle someone other than them acquiring the one thing better than the lottery in the worst part is these people probably most definitely the ones who are jealous to the point where they were happier if he fell on his face or better yet never achieved anything better then Home Depot I am a man who always maintain Integrity I failed everything in my life was absolutely certain I was destined to fail no matter I've had breaks I've had chances I've squandered everything I ended up falling backwards into a company that I just happened to excel at While most people can't even comprehend diving in conditions depth just the all-around nature of using deadly tools underwater and rigging cranes and pinch points it's just not a common thing I got lucky became almost rich just lived my life rescued more animals and was unfortunately not Money Motivated or greedy and now after I went through dishonest person after dishonest person broke my back had nobody to take over even the simple cleaning to keep the company alive which still brought in 10 grand a month I lost it all my manhood my pride my life and yet I'm so grateful for Tommy he deserves to be the front man alone and he bring some joy and peace back into me I haven't seen a mirror in years and the only positivity in my life is watching a man work at Home Depot and become the lead singer of the greatest fucking band ever the most underrated

[@kevinforrester3379]

he sounds nothing like Brad I stood right in front of him in the 70s

[@billmcg5149]

I think U might be missing the point. The fact is, Brad Delp was the VOICE of Boston. If Tom was the Brains, Brad was the Voice. Ok, this guy is better than Tommy DeCastro, but still - He's not Brad! Nuff said...

[@marshallross3373]

I think the blond guitarist is hitting some pretty high notes there.

To all that feel there is lip syncing...if you look closely the whole video is off with the sound. And correct to the rest...David Victor is also singing. The drummer is Curly Smith.

[@RG-hf4et]

Get mad at me if you want and I don't care. This lead singer is good if he is really singing. Brad has a very distinctive voice. If I didn't know that Brad had passed and heard this guy singing without seeing him, I would think it was Brad having a bit of an off day or maybe it was an older Brad singing. He sounds more like Brad does than the replacement singers for Peter Cetera in Chicago. Now, THAT'S a tribute band!!

[@alarmfannh]

I remember when they did 8 nights at the Centrum in Worcester late 80’s or so. Night 1 to 8, absolutely rocked! How do I know? A friend was at all 8!
