Ive been watching After Midnight clips next day for over a year. Every time Ive heard the theme I've thought "Wow someone was listening to a lot of Cory Wong when they wrote this" Today I discover the theme was literally Cory Wong the whole time.

[@NathanMazet-mr8tz]

@@DSmicklas haha funny but I think he explained in a press conference during last tour that the show selected another song, that is why I have written as "unreleased theme".

[@CoryWongMusic]

heroic effort here thank u

[@NathanMazet-mr8tz]

@@CoryWongMusic happy to help you sir, good idea to add chapters. :) Thanks a lot again, every notification from you put a smile on my face. :) Hope to see live versions that have not been published yet (Olympia in Paris last year was sick!)

[@pasqualepenati6764]

Amazing music that touches you deeply. Amazing!!!!!

[@breadstickvalley]

Amazing, beautiful, fantastic, musicians off the charts, high quality video, great mixing and production, all for the cost of…? Free. An absolute legend, I adore you, Cory.

[@macleoddan]

Oh that Peg solo and breakdown - Awesome!

[@glubbaflubbins]

always a treat to get these cory 🥺❤️

[@Intimewithtime]

super crazy

[@tomatengarage5608]

01:10:00 It's frustrating when a string breaks just before the solo starts....but, but, but...very well done, Mr. Wong! You got the ship through the storm...! I don't mind the out of tune sound. because that is how a strat sounds with a broken string and a floating trem. I think it's great to see how you handled this situation. Thumbs up, man. Great Gig, wish I was there....

[@douglastinoco8364]

Separadooooo ! 🥰

[@RobertShaw-j5c]

[@이진영-y3n]

Freaking Lovely, but why rn,.,.. toronto was gerat TOootototototooooOooo

[@Pappahobo]

Prince should love to be there.

[@shoubamzlibap]

I love this - wonderful! Besides - anyone else getting nervous when they see that laptop on a stool next to Petar? I hope at least its clamped down :D.

[@mateyko555]

7:17 drums

[@DecoJunior]

there was a change in sound at minute 1:47. Probably closed the ambience microphone. But spectacular sound.

[@joshuah9061]

32.39 - sneaky fix on the fly on that out of tune string😄classy. also tried to mitigate it earlier on in that riff.

[@darksage4823]

No way !

[@mangolassi_.]

Cory's vocals in "Peg" are missing in the mix. I wonder why that is, they were definitely not just forgotten as Cory did the mixing in part himself.

[@mateyko555]

@cory can we get someday version with nearly no compression at all? lives are the last place where we can get some dynamics instead of loudness war (youtube, spotify etc) that would be legendardy. I actually thought of starting some campaign of certification records that are not stripped of dynamics by using compression :)

[@Fastvoice]

Just for the guitar (without mentioning the rest of the band): Compression is a key component of Cory's sound - I guess he has at least two compression pedals on the floor.

[@mateyko555]

​Sure it is. Ihave like whole mix more in mind.most of music is dynamic sausage all over the graph in DAW ​@@Fastvoice

[@shoubamzlibap]

I have read elsewhere that youtube applies compression no matter what - so it might not even be Corys decision :/

[@Fastvoice]

@@shoubamzlibap Don't mix up data compression and audio compression. AFAIK YT compresses data.

[@shoubamzlibap]

​@@Fastvoice I meant sound compression like in the Wong compressor

[@markrages]

Is there such a thing as a circular breathing trombone solo?

[@glennkaufman7228]

Tighter than a mosquito's ass, and I don't even know if a mosquito has an ass!!! I know that you guys work hard to be able to play like this. Great ensemble. Great talent. Great chemistry. I think Petar is more on-point than any click track I've ever heard. Damn!

[@peaelare]

winter 2023? wasn't this early 2024?

[@uk1803]

[@AkyfTradingplc]
