Gang Of Four - Masquerade - Atlanta, GA 03/11/22 (full show)

Pylon Reenactment Society opened

[@trevorxvx]

David Pajo is the only person on earth who could do Andy’s parts justice.

[@lextual]

I’m willing to believe there are at least 3 people (statistically), only Mr. Pajo is BRAVE enough to get up on stage and do it…

[@drapes30]

Just saw them do this same set Saturday and I was absolutely mesmerised by him, normally watch the drummer but Pajo was so amazing I couldn’t take my eyes off him. Master of his craft

[@gizmotv9320]

Saw them at Leeds last September, and he absolutely did justice to the guitar parts

[@danielvahnke3369]

There's a difference between Capable While Too Buzzed and not knowing the music AT ALL. Who are you morons - are you all 23 yrs old? I did NOT hear a SINGLE Gill tone cluster until King wrecked (corrected) the guitar tuning on the botched Trains bridge. I'd kick his ass out & hire a NON-guitarist with percussion experience. I feel sorry for King & The Professor.

[@3badthebad]

Jeez Dave Pajo is a fucking madman on guitar

[@reverendsonhouse]

Yeah, he is! . . . and and pretty damn big shoes to fill!

[@postpunkhah]

Thanks a ton!

[@ninjadude12346]

One of the best shows I’ve EVER seen! so glad it was caught on tape!

[@gavinholmes7768]

Nice! It was an amazing show, for sure!

[@drapes30]

Thanks for this. Saw them do this set live Saturday and just went down a David Pajo rabbit hole on here and found this. Pajo was a master craftsman at work, best I’ve ever seen live

[@abeautifulcountry9353]

Fantastic filming. Really caught the atmosphere. Thank you 👏👏

[@gavinholmes7768]

Thank you, and you’re welcome!

[@lextual]

Definitely. Looks exactly like how my phone took pictures of the DC show...

[@alexbozas887]

Thanks Gavin watched this a year ago, and again this eve..,brilliant .

[@ramonasubs5072]

Gang Of Four is my best band of all times, cheers from Zagreb, Croatia!

[@anfrankogezamartincic1161]

Cheers from Rakalj, Istra

[@carlopianta5738]

Very honourable performance!!! Very glad to see the band going!!!

[@carlopianta5738]

And I thought that I was the only possible replacement... What a great guitarist!!!

[@Hantyumi348]

Im so glad you captured this! I was to your left! Ha! Being there brought back so many memories, Gang of Four was my very first concert experience, I was 14! They played at the time called Cingular earth link live, now called center stage in Atlanta. For a moment I felt as I was back in that concert 16 years ago.

[@montgomeryramone9655]

Each day seems like a natural fact - THANKS Gavin for a fine recording

[@gavinholmes7768]

you’re welcome!

[@vayres7512]

Great band these guys!

[@eduardoSC41]

Such a great night - thanks for capturing it!

[@gavinholmes7768]

[@bartwieden]

Great share. I haven't heard the Gang of 4 since the early 80's.

[@keithellis5634]

Awesome !!!!!! what a Gig.Saw Gang of Four in Aberdeen Scotland in Seventy Nine but this was equally Brilliant.Thank you very much for sharing .Best gig this yr and i wasn't even at the Gig !😂🔥🔥💚

[@gavinholmes7768]

Ha! You're welcome, and thanks!

[@jonstrummer6930]

@keith ellis Really? How TF did I miss that? Where was it? Music Hall? My first gig was The Skids at the Music Hall in March 79 and rarely missed any punky kinda bands for a few years after that. Gutted I missed GoF in Aberdeen.

[@keithellis6418]

@@jonstrummer6930 ,hi Jon ,yeah it was at the Students Union.Supported by Delta5 and the Au Pair's. Got to say, after all these yrs it still sticks in the mind as one of the best gigs of that era.

[@jonstrummer6930]

@Keith Ellis Ah ok, that makes sense Keith. I was only 12 when I started going to gigs so there were a couple of venues that I just couldn't get into if they were serving alcohol. Ruffles was one so I'd just skip school and go meet the bands at the soundchecks n get stuff signed n blag drumsticks etc. Still got them all. Simple Minds, UK Subs, Exploited😖, Pretenders, Undertones, Rezillos and Crass(plus a banner I 'borrowed') I did that at most gigs though. Was totally unaware GoF ever played here. Cheers mate.

[@tomschneider7990]

Great filming my friend saw them at the Magic Bag in Ferndale Michigan they blew that place apart right up there with the 2005 show at the Majestic with all original members....!! They all came out afterwards and hung out while we sipped a cocktail at the bar cheers from Port Huron Michigan🛵🛵🇬🇧🍵

[@gavinholmes7768]

Thanks! They came out after this show, too. My son got the microwave he beat the hell outta. They all signed it for him X-)

[@johnozed]

Wonderful!

[@AndrewWells]

Fantastic document of this set as it gets tighter and tighter...

[@gavinholmes7768]

Thanks!

Best (DC, March 9th) show I've seen in two years. Actually, it's the first show I've seen in two years...

[@FrederickDenny]

Thanks!

[@gavinholmes7768]

Thanks!

[@fredmossberg2069]

Saw them three times during the Sara / Steve Goulding era and they weren't just brilliant -- they were memorable. Wide grin cemented to my face throughout. Paralysed somehow always triggers my emotions, and it did here!

How many people in the crowd would you say?

They sound awesome. Anthrax my fave so far

Cheers Gavin

Cheers!

[@donw.k.6877]

I'm glad this exists and the OP uploaded it; but I do wish it was professionally recorded, as the sound quality / mix is poor. Outside the Train Don't Run on Time lacks the low-end to booty shake, which originally made it unique among post-punk. Perhaps some kind soul can remaster the audio - have seen other KZbin videos where this has been done?

[@gavinholmes7768]

No live soundboard plugins these days... I'd never thought about enhancing the audio from my GoPro recordings, tho. Will look into it for future recordings.

[@donw.k.6877]

@@gavinholmes7768 like I say I'm grateful you uploaded it full stop soany thanks. I think there are some good utilities incorporating AI that can make it much less of a burden. It isn't always the OP who rips the live video and does the remastering, any hobbyist with a bit of knowledge (or a time rich novice) can do it. Thanks again for putting it up there. It's kind of you.

It is!

This is rad but I do miss the melodica on Not Great Men.

[@critStock]

It's just so sad without Andy Gill. A pale shadow.

[@carlosmarx2380]

you shouldve seen them without Jon. THAT was a shadow. RIP Andy Gill!

[@athanstreitz9178]

No Andy Gill no GOF. Doesn't matter who's playing guitar in place of. He's very good just not the stage presence of AG. Same as no John Lennon no Beatles.

[@rnrrjsdl]

Good..Nice video

[@gavinholmes7768]

Thank you very much!

[@iankinzel]

RIP Andy, you'll never be forgotten. To hell with covid.

[@garethde-witt6433]

Not Gang of Four without Andy

[@chokkan7]

Queen had the good taste not to try to replace Mr. Mercury. Rush made it clear that they'd never considered finding a replacement for Mr. Peart. While I appreciate the contributions of all the members...there is no credible Go4 without Mr. Gill. RIP.

[@apostlewoody]

At what point is a band still a band??

[@gpwnedable]

Who's on guitar if you don't mind me asking?

[@gavinholmes7768]

Dave Pajo

[@nullvoid244]

An evening at the geriatric disco

[@keithknobbler9378]

It's come to this, one of the most original powerful rock bands of the age have become a cabaret act playing for money in America. Dark times.

[@paulvanreesch2493]

& that's David Pajo on guitar dufus. God, you got my panties in a bunch m-fer.

[@paulvanreesch2493]

Next you'll be bitchin' that they're shills for NATO for giving Ukraine a shout out. Done with you, for now.

[@MrKelleyzinho]

Playing for money! In America! Oh my, how dreadful.

[@johnnyhartley4330]

I know, it is ridiculous, they should have played for free and not worried about the costs of getting to American and performing.

[@transmitterdown1670]

Saw Andy Gill's GOF around 6 years ago, far far more exciting and interesting than this embarrassment

[@johnparkinson471]

I saw Andy gills gof at Manchester 6 years ago and they were a shambles ....awful so definitely not in agreement !!!
