Breathtaking! I was there in the front row, my girlfriend sits on the ground because she couldn't handle the wall of sound. (it was her first godspeed experience) Mr. Mauro Pezzente (the bassist in the middle) reconized it and gave us some water during the show, asked if everything is ok. Made my day, Godspeed is a band that truly cares about their fans and they are happy to do what they do best. Cheers!

[@shin-gerharar]

I actually saw that! It was a very kind gesture.

[@troymabbett2127]

Some of the members are friendly and open to engage with fans.

GYBE's Drones are like: forget the outside world, calm down, you are now in our universe. I can hardly express, how much I love this band.

[@yusa4467]

it's more like. "come on, sit beside us! let's take a seconds (which is 2 hours long) watches the world and introspect."

[@alaskayoung5702]

love this thanks for uplaoding the full thing😁😁

[@arbitrarium7336]

My friend Walter was at this concert and he farted ,it was an inaudible one, and out of shame he went outside for a while ,after his return he was still afraid that they would blame him.

20 years later, World Police's finish still insane! Great quality, thanks for sharing.

[@JH-cy4kx]

Needs 3 more drummers, 5 more bass players and 11 more guitarists...I think

[@joesoucy3952]

Superb ! Cliff, has really evolved during the last year, starting at about the 57:00 mark with an extened mellow wavering before the build up. A year ago it was perhaps two minutes long , now they' ll play with it upwards to five minutes depending. oxoxox

[@bloodflower99]

So beautiful, best band ever ! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@HYPONOVA_Official]

EPIC as always. Incredible band.

[@mt._cleverest]

Just. Fucking. Wow. Missed them on this run, but they still rule!

[@flimphister]

Got some CRISP sound from GYBE. Sounds beautiful

[@brasikurtz]

Thanks ! Great 💎👌🏻👍🏻

Just saw them in MA and NH the last couple days. Basically same set. It was an experience. Such an amazing/unique band.

[@andreistroe4140]

wonderful.

[@jjmontes14]

Vengan a buenos aires!

[@faber6482]

Thank you for this video

[@Swishead]

This version of Dead Metheny is stunning. I don't recognise the second half of it, maybe it is some part of a coming studio release?

[@fizzletrie1592]

it's a live extended version of dead metheny they've played since 1998, but never recorded a studio version of. it has had some variations over the years.

[@trowftd]

they've played many shapes and forms of this extended version only since 2002, but yes

[@georgesabitpol]

I miss you.

[@kevinyelenik1963]

Thank you for the upload. Just saw them in Stavanger Norway (their first show ever here) and was wondering if anyone out there has a set list from that night. I know they ended with Maldic. The whole show was just incredible. So glad I saw them again and not at a festival this time.

[@grimmrobe_76]

Setlist Stavanger: Hope Drone, First of the Last Glaciers, Bosses Hang, Cliffs Gaze, Fire at Static Valley, World Police and Friendly Fire, Mladic.

Does anybody know which fire they are projecting during World Police?

[@trowftd]

the name of the piece performed after hope drone is not Job's Lament, it is Glacier.

[@chalachala6]

Hi, did you use a Panoramic camera to record this set?❤

[@shin-gerharar]

No, just a regular smartphone camera

[@user-kc9dr5ks5p]

Was Nico there??

[@hubrisguy9]

Simon Cowell plays drums in a post rock band?

[@loudenlaffnite246]

Doesn't you filming this the whole time drive the people around you nuts?

[@shin-gerharar]

I hate it when people film with their phones above their heads, so I never do that. If I film something, I always make sure people behind me can enjoy the show without any distractions from my side -- which usually means holding my phone below my eyes/head level and using a tripod.

[@georgesabitpol]

New drummer?

[@rickmccain5316]

No, it's Timothy Herzog and Aidan Girt. Like always

[@kontolek]

głośniej i szybciej nie znaczy: lepiej... A może Waszej muzy powinien posłuchać ktoś kto się na TYM zna... ? :)

I jeszcze raz: gracie fajnie ale: to FINALE jest do dupy: za długie jak na Wasze możliwości... praktycznie w każdym kawałku...
