Chiodos - Baby, You Wouldn’t Last a Minute on the Creek LIVE @ When We Were Young 2024 WWWY 10/19/24

[@stayaway7357]

Anyone who’s seen him recently knows he’s going HEAVY on the back tracks. He’s doing it with DRUGS, he’s doing it with Chiodos.

[@jetramey2681]

so weird, I saw drugs last year and he defitently didn't use a backtrack then. The difference is super noticeable in this and recent drugs performances.

[@pabloyescobar334]

I was there I doubt he’s using back tracks Craig messed up lyrics night 1 on The Words Best Friend.

[@cameronmendez6483]

All bands use tracks in some way shape and form. Not super noticeable with Chiodos, especially because they totally messed up "One Day" night 1 and Craig had to get the drummer back on track lol!

[@scottclanton9597]

I saw Craig play an acoustic show last year and he absolutely crushed it. There was definitely no back tracking in a set like that and he's as good as ever. Which is why this is so bizarre to see...because it's so obvious here. He's fully capable...

[@sloppysteaks5813]

@@jetramey2681he did. I saw him last year and this year with DRUGS. Back tracked both.

[@probokoala]

For anyone who thinks he isn't using backing tracks for his vocal. Listen to 1:34 where he says "come on" that's what his live mic actually sounds like. The rest of the vocals are tracks.

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

Yelling =/= singing 😂😂😂

[@probokoala]

@@WarpedTastePodcast volume

[@mtndewandrew]

a little after 1:09 the word "had" lasts way longer than he's actually holding it. came looking for a video because I was there and it DEFINITELY seemed like something was up.

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

Zoomed out shot with a screen with latency delay 😂😂😂😂

[@mtndewandrew]

zoom in on actual Craig and you'll see.

[@mtndewandrew]

​@@WarpedTastePodcastplus you hear how unnatural that sounds?

[@InsectFromSpace]

not to mention the guitarist does the backup vocals the first time and then just walks away from the mic and the part keeps going

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

@@InsectFromSpace there’s three microphones on stage lol

[@sk0den772]

this quality reminds me of 10 yrs ago 😢 (not a bad thing lol)

[@faithandentrepreneurship7241]

Dang…..so sad to not see it actually live

[@k.c.simonsen2]

Man at first I was like “Jesus he hasn’t hit a wrong note yet” and then I saw the comments. I don’t know if it’s backing tracks tho, I think it’s heavy live pitch correct. Which I say GO FOR IT CRAIG cuz I can’t sing high ass songs like this now that I’m 33 and he’s Fuckin screaming with it. Sounds great! Bet the show freakin ruled

[@user-hc7pl8vu1k]

Amazing

[@HodgePodgeRecords]

Thanks for posting these! Sounds like Craig’s vocals are all tracked :/

[@victim943]

It's like using autotune

[@richmoncelestial3397]

Chiodos or drugs still the same its owen guys !!!

[@neb999]

the auto-tune is strong with this one!

[@Jim-l4t]

never thought craig would lip sync... wtf

[@pabloyescobar334]

Honestly being there it was so good I could almost agree.

[@jonathanvelasco7332]

​@@pabloyescobar334nah man. Paying to listen to the cd being played on Giant speakers? Shame on them.

[@CODeliteUSA]

2:52 came in late on the scream and he’s the only one with a mic lol

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

Three people have mics on stage 😂😂😂😂

[@CODeliteUSA]

@@WarpedTastePodcast it’s back tracks, Not like I care that’s a chiodos problem

That shit hit idgaf what no one says!! Chichis all daaaaay

[@JohnSmith-wx6oj]

Some people pay to go see rappers who don't even rap on stage now, they just walk around to the backing track with no enthusiasm for what they're doing. I'm sure theres a reason if they were using a backing track and on their 2025 tour..hopefully the original lineup will return with him and won't need to use it anymore.

[@gothsteeze]

Fans of hip hop artists who perform like that know that's what the performance is going to be like. They still don't lip synch completely pretending their rapping. The ones who use backtracks don't pretend that they don't.

[@anthonybarragan1687]

What a weak way to make a comeback

[@DieslowMufasa]

😂😂😂 🛑

[@thewalkingrob8840]

This is sad Seeing him play with destroy rebuild until god shows was bad even when they did their first tour. So disappointing

[@Striz23]

Wish the boys in the band came back, but still epic!

[@itsjonnyazn]

also saw him with drugs in a smaller venue and production, and his voice was insane, def not lip syncing

[@sdaftermath123]

A lot of shows at bigger Venus do use some back tracking. His shows with drugs probably don’t draw more than 500 people, probably didn’t use much back tracking. A venue and crowd like this though, looks like somewhere between 4,000-5,000. Nothing wrong with using back tracking, I see bad omens use an insane amount of it. However he may have over done it with the back tracking at this show. Back tracking should make up for only about 10-20% of your vocals. This appears to be around 50% or more

[@Skullys_Trading_Cards]

@@sdaftermath123was 80,000 people at wwwy and like half where at this stage honestly. Was fucking bananas

[@sdaftermath123]

@@Skullys_Trading_Cards wow that’s wild. Good for Craig

[@LPtests]

Wow he sounds better live O_O

[@scottynewman4599]

Man he really smashed it!

[@brettisstoked]

Some dude in the comments is hating on this for lip-syncing. I have worked on tons of live audio this is NOT lip syncing. Audio is matching the video and there are tons of variations throughout the performance especially around the bridge. Some harmonies are back tracked. Get a life Craig sounds incredible

[@tngblfntsy]

You’re being disingenuous at best. There are SEVERAL moments in this video where the audio is not matching video. It’s very obvious this is a backtrack.

[@fancylogic5285]

@@tngblfntsy the cast video on the screens behind craig were like 1sec behind. It was a problem for all the bands.

[@LizzieMagz]

Right I saw his mouth very clearly in person and there were a few times the mic seemed to cut out but I swear I heard him still singing slightly and it would come on mid lyric. And also a few times it sounded like he was a tad but out of breath (still great though)

[@ManticorePinion]

I'll say it, half the other bands should've done this because most of the videos I've seen, everyone sounds like garbage. lookin at mcr heavily, ouch.

[@mrjoefederico408]

I was at that show and they did use a back track for harmonies but that is definitely him screaming.

[@N1ghtmareGaming]

Ehh even if he’s auto tuned sounded amazing and so dam good

[@skymiller5457]

Can someone please explain to me like I’m 5 how he is lip syncing bc this sounds different from the og track (I’m basically 30 and loved this band when I was in 6th grade 😭)

[@PunkAssSamurai1]

He's not lip singing lmao he was hella coked outta his mind and going ham 😂

[@FRIGIDBASTARDS]

Sometimes, adults would rather lie than be truthful.

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

Watch Craig play an acoustic show 😂 haters want you to believe he can’t sing and needs to lip sync

[@bulbakirb5789]

Bands rerecord backing tracks and things like that in the studio all the time. This is clearly a studio rerecord and he's lip syncing alot of it live. To be clear he used to be incredible live. Look up his 2013 warped tour performance, thats 100% him singing with no backing track and its amazing. But age gets to you.

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

@@bulbakirb5789 you can look up shows from the last year lol dude can still sing, check any acoustic performance, just because ya didn’t go and weren’t there and think ya know everything lol doesn’t mean you’re right, backing tracks exist for a reason lol

[@H8in2R4G3]

Are we sure its lip syncing instead of pitch correction / autotune?

[@WarpedTastePodcast]

😂😂😂 so many folks exposing they never been to a festival, this festival had sound issues both days and Vegas Fairground shows are famous for making Rob Zombie sound like he eats helium

[@trepabeard]

Holy shit he sounds SO good now. Fucking awesome.

[@mikecampa4965]

Not lip syncing, he’s really singing. He’s just gotten better.

[@Shaders.]

His vocals are tracked unfortunately though is what you're hearing so kind of close to it. I saw him with his D.R.U.G.S band and he did the same thing

[@stayaway7357]

He’s actually gotten significantly worse, that’s why he uses so much back track.

[@RyanRexWrex]

​@@stayaway7357😂😂😂😂 which Ex Chiodos dude burner is this?

​@RyanRexWrex c'mon now. Anyone who has seen Chiodos live knows this isn't what Craig sounds like live. Probably seen them close to 20 times. He has never sounded like this.
