Dance Gavin Dance - Afterburner Tour Live Show

Live show during COVID, no audience. Decided to upload in HQ since they seem to be allowing them and its been a few months.

[@droptherapy2085]

Not shitting on Jon Mess because his vocals are great but he always just looks like some guy they let on stage to do vocals with them

[@karsenic6436]

I’ve just accepted it as part of the aesthetic

[@mikaruhtinas9223]

Agree, but maybe its his style. I found him screaming more melodic in new album...

[@MrBlazeBudz]

As a "screaming" vocalist myself, I believe it actually shows insane control on his part. I've thrown myself around stage before and wasted valuable breath, when he's as tight as he is there's no need to add stage presence imo. Plus he seems to have built it up as part of his general character which adds to DGD's lovable charm. I think.........

[@MrBlazeBudz]

Not that he doesn't remind me constantly of the lost Travolta meme!

[@TheUltimateWriterNZ]

@John Garza this! He's so well trained and fine-tuned that it appears effortless because he has so much control over his instrument.

Why is strawberry wake muted?

[@russellbell6308]

Wonder why they didn't do nothing shameful since they had the guest singer there as their rythm guitarist and back up vocalist anyways..

[@lilwhitecrow]

Thanks

[@cjsickles1]

its actually unbelievable how they've kept the same sound for almost 15 years with all the changes. Tilian is an insane vocalist, jon mess still sounds unreal. Ive been listening to these guys since i was 17 years old and they keep getting better. DGD

[@cjsickles1]

First off, this is incredible. Second, i have to say it because i haven't seen anybody comment on this yet, Andrews backing vocals are phenomenal. He needs to be a permanent member.

[@EpicGabby24]

I always wonder the situation with that. Sometimes he seems like he wants to be in DGD but then he wasnt in photoshoots or meet and greets and stuff anymore. I wish I knew why he hasn't been permanently added. I ask when I've met them but it's just a shrug so it's unsettling 🤣 Could be due to focus on Eidola but idk

[@Schlitorous]

I thought the same thing but I heard he isn’t a full member simply cause he doesn’t want to be

[@11ChrisRiley]

I think Andrew is already in another band

[@rehannoor4961]

@@Schlitorous yeah i think he doesnt want to do a recording session

[@GEM_MUSIC]

@@EpicGabby24 I think he just spends his time on Eidola. But their newest record has been in the works for years so I am not sure

[@Daniel-xx5ng]

I wish they would do some of these extended intros / interludes on their albums. It makes certain songs sound so rad.

[@magnesiumchloride77]

You got your wish - check out Tree City Sessions 2

[@michaeltingler6137]

Wanna echo what you have here, bro. I love the way that Coheed/Circa albums have those intros and outros that make the album feel as if it is one contiguous act. These guys have the musicality to really make that a good tool in their arsenal.

[@MaxPlaysRiffs]

Jon’s screaming is a masterpiece

[@mariejae]

Exactly as recorded, its amazing. I'm a bit disappointed at times with the other singer - he's def not as strong and is shakey live. Love the band though. I prefer the former singer for Lemon Meringue.

[@lilwhitecrow]

[@davidobregon5787]

[@Ace-nb9lg]

Sorry strawberry’s wake had to be muted, for some reason that song causes the whole video to be blocked. I know reactioners had trouble with that too idk how some circumvented it.

[@arickle]

The audio is really delayed after it comes back 😫

[@rodriguezgreg]

Really saddened abt that 2nd half after strawberry wake. But anyways thanks for the upload bro! Blessthismess!

[@w0ngky]

Its amazing to see Tilian do Lemon Meringue Tie. I fell inlove with Jonnys version but props for Tilian for trying to keep it close to the original as possible. You can tell its out of his comfort zone by how low he has to go. I guess its also one of DGD's most popular songs so it would be silly for them not to play it

[@dancegregorydance6933]

Andrew would probably be better fit to sing Johnny’s stuff.
