Best live band ever, Must see before you die

[@mc4240]

Lol. Ok.

[@heymarcello4827]

Respect for pulling that one off despite his obvious voice problems. Hope he gets some rest to recover!

[@blakemc90]

Was he crook? Sounds nasally/fluey

[@benmorgan9748]

It's been worse. He just about lost it completely earlier in the year.

[@charliewright2474]

You could only really notice it when he spoke to the audience, but the vocals were pretty fucking spot on considering

[@lewisnorth1188]

@@charliewright2474 His voice had been really hoarse in interviews for a while too

@@lewisnorth1188 foals do tend to become Horse as they get older.....sorry....I couldn't help myself

That stage & lighting is unreal. I’m a glasto man & never done reading but that stage Glasto could learn a thing or 2

[@isiinna5388]

Foals was incredible at Reading ❤️

[@tomkelly338]

Went to both this year luckily Glastonbury is on a different level as a festival across the board however one thing I did say was reading main stages and screens were far beyond anything at glasto built like the other stage with far wider screens, pyro and lasers

[@stobbse8006]

Guessing u didn't see foals at glasto in 2022?

[@locker8286]

@@stobbse8006 Yeah I was there. But cmon the reading stage is 100 times flashier than the other stage.

[@archieholden9345]

@@locker8286 I was in this crowd and its just unbelievable. Foals' stage lighting is unreal

[@dc8597]

Thanks to a meme: “Crowd of people start rowing in the middle of a concert” i have found this cool song and band. I think it was at this exact concert too, what an amazing live performance!

[@Tminesallday]

Yes, it was!

[@billymulhern6294]

one of the best live bands about, so underrated

[@rafadoggs]

Omg, this energy!!! I wish this show in Brazil.

[@FBV365]

Energetic performance 🔥🔥

[@davidschlenstedt289]

Their performances are so on point! ❤

[@pablomerida8065]

tuve el privilegio de verlos en vivo y suenan una maldita locura en vivo , ese sonido, ese feeling.impecable Foals

[@ignaciobarralesriquelme1446]

No me voy a cansar nunca de ver Foals en vivo la conchalalora

[@amangogna68]

Great music, amazing vocals and fantastic band !

[@matthewdeturk5193]

Awesome band and an amazing song

[@mattd1659]

Wished they still sounded like Antidotes-era, but I guess you don’t get to the main stage playing jangly math-rock. Having said that, this is a pretty good performance

[@musicshead]

Man, i dont get it the fact of major fans from Foals (even Bloc Party's fans) has with their discography. WWD, TLF and Holy Fire are top top albums.

Como eu queria estar ali vendo o show

[@usainb]

I buried my heart in a hole in the ground With the lights and the roses and the cowards downtown They threw me a party, there was no one around They tried to call my girl but she could not be found I buried my guilt in a pit in the sound With the rust and the vultures and the trash downtown So don't step to me, kid, you'll never be found 'Cause while you were sleeping, I took over your town When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, of my eye You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, I want ya I fell for a girl with a port-wine stain I knew her initials but never her name I tried and I tried and I was never the same It's no longer for love and I'm forever changed When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, of my eye You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, I want ya Give up my money, give up my name, take it away I'll give it away, I'll give it away, I'll give it When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, of my eye You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, I want ya Give up my money, give up my name, take it away I'll give it away, I'll give it away, I'll give it I'm a sycophantic animal, I'm a sycophantic animal, I'm a sycophantic animal Break up the chain, I'll break up the chain, I'll break it Give it away, I'll give it away, I'll give it When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, of my eye You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, I want ya Give up my money, give up my name, take it away I'll give it away, I'll give it away, I'll give it See you again, I'll see you again, I'll see ya Give it away, I'll give it away, I'll give it When I feel low, when I feel low, I feel it When I see a man, I see a lion When I see a man, I see a lion You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, of my eye You're the apple of my eye, of my eye, I want ya

[@majorminus]

They are one of the very rare bands in the world who have moved their music from slow to hard. Respect🖤

Finally

[@TrojanSauce]

Is there a way to watch the whole set? I really want to listen to two steps twice but there are only amateur videos.

[@nicholasvanlue4250]

You can search up the set and find a good quality audio, but no visuals

[@simonharris6282]

did they finish with two steps, twice?

[@Av3_ryOnCapCut]

yes! it was insaneeeeee

Hi ,do you like this kind of band ( music) ?

[@michellehatton3949]

Where are you ???

[@michellehatton3949]

I have't seen any posts in two day's of You r's ?

[@OdysseyZZGaming]

damn, Yannis's voice sounds a bit rough. I hope it's ok

[@gooner1248]

They have been touring for a while. I think this is one of the last shows so not very surprising his voice suffered a bit. Still unreal performance though.

[@OdysseyZZGaming]

@@gooner1248 oh agreed- still amazing. I thought they had more shows this year, but I can be wrong (and hope I am)

[@alexisgarcia9532]

Pinche Yannis me pone bien malito

[@rubywine9487]

I don't follow Foals closely but I am certain they used to be far more interesting than this.

[@triplej8666]

mate this song is amongst their best, came out in 2015 but obviously yannis is going through issues with his vocal chords.

wow, wow, wowww…
