Low: Live at Colorado College

On the 5 Year Anniversary of KRCC's foray into live concert events, the alternative rock band Low returned to play in Armstrong Hall on September 25th, 2011. Low was the first band KRCC Concerts booked as part of the station's renewed commitment to live events in October of 2007.

Rest in peace Mimi Parker. With no question you were the heart of Low - you will be thought of often and missed dearly.

[@blueeyedghost9742]

I don't know how many times I've watched this over the last few years. It's one of my favorite live recordings ever.

[@2visiondigital]

Sunflowers is still one of the most evocative songs i know ~ With my half of the ransom....

[@wahnfriedvonmannteufel1574]

RIP Mimmi. And thank you. Sad.

[@thedayofthedog6477]

I saw them live almost 2 decades ago and it was absolute fucking magic, one of 5 or 6 shows that I will never forget.

[@bigred7271]

I’m up to 14 times seeing them now. Got three booked for next year. Go and see them again. It’s a wonderful thing.

[@robertnichol471]

Just found this. The first song says it all, nothing but heart. Soooooo good.

[@cupuacu4life13]

i listen to it going to college in the bus, looking at the buildings, i live in a city called maceio, but grew up in the countryside, to this day, low and the big city are still this new world to me, and college and work and runnin around, with this on the headphones, amazing band

[@Clunko]

Sunflowers 41:30 . This song was my introduction to Low. On John Peels’ radio show. I discovered so many fantastic artists through John Peel. He played stuff no-one else did!

[@maxhunt29]

he did indeed

[@redpaint9259]

This show was one of the best I've been to. But I remember it being in 2009? Back when KRCC actually cared about music and hosted many great shows. I love this song and agree that the live version surpasses the studio one. Intense emotion! The sound envelopes you! Sing along with this one and try to hold the notes as long as Mimi did. It's hard! RIP songbird! 😔

[@erlineandrews]

The first three minutes alone earned a thumbs up.

[@johnsakowicz383]

Thank you KRCC.

[@dahbuck]

this should be more famous because it is so good. that just applies to low too

[@googlymoogly64]

I'd have given anything to still be a student when they did this. Floored, completely floored.

[@Phrogex1]

I think some of these songs sound better live than the album versions.

[@ukaszbaginski7399]

Goodbye Mimi. Feel so low now.

[@feelinthazeal]

Any college or venue that booked Low back in the day and then brought them back is super cool in my book.

[@diannwebb8390]

I got to see this concert thanks to KRCC and it was one of the most fabulous concerts I’ve ever been to!

[@stevenshearer7098]

Beauty gets no better than this.

[@emutemusic]

Yep! Awesome, really liked the vid ! Music is the prime invention of mankind isn't it? I'm so happy to be a musician!

[@robertkemp6937]

Magic!

[@PaulEcosse]

I can die happy, having heard everything Low ever did. And that's ok. :)

[@drumandbassvzla]

Me encanta esta banda en vivo..

[@Joaocruz30]

Love you since the debut album, I Could Live in Hope, 1994( i Think) greetings from Portugal

[@JohnReganSeattle]

Playing in Seattle in 10 days with Mono -- very excited to see them.

[@elizabethlesar]

This was the coolest concert!

[@PoorMansJoyDivision]

Great performance!

[@stephenwatson5469]

nice music ... very nice...... often sad, but gooooooooooood ...

[@retrobiker670]

Wind forward to '13:47' and see and hear Mimi sing that life is too short..

[@thecommuters]

Sweet video, thx for posting

[@atilagrigio1630]

Muito obrigado!!! Valeu pela ajuda!!! Abraço aqui do Brasil!!!

[@Altomp]

tremendo grupo ...!!!!

[@jordanellington3184]

just went through and said something negative to the hater posts. all one man can do...

[@micahnewman]

I reported that troll for harassment and abuse.

[@SirPhilMcCrackinVonBeggington]

@@micahnewman Reported for reporting

[@laurencehawks1981]

Gad, Robert Plant, of all people, guided me here. Lovely sounds, beautiful colors. Watercolors.

[@johngreenwood1972]

Laurence Hawks me too.

[@polychenko]

Yes, violent past from Drums and Guns. Increcible album, by far their best in my opinion. Murderer is another great track from it

[@maxhunt29]

They’re all good albums, every single one

[@josefafloresaraya]

Perfect for sad people too.

[@cabrini99]

Love it

[@97ros97]

Violent Past from the album Drums and Guns if I remember rightly!

[@rodinnidor901]

!!!!! Pissing from ca 20.00 til end !!!

[@CB-ll6xf]

I'm nothing but heart.

[@joseart06]

Sweet sunflower

[@YouSilverRider]

I love Pissing (the song that is :)

[@ITakiMaki]

LOW

[@midwestpanda]

i love you

[@dmacowski]

AWESOME!!

[@micahnewman]

I haven't been following Low since "Songs for a Dead Pilot." Wish this had some of their early stuff. Also, not dissing on Alan, but I wish Mimi sang more of their songs. Just love her voice.

[@aborderas]

Setlist: video on 45:52 Nice performance

[@killuastark1414]

Thanks for that!

[@cruiser815]

must see them live, awesome (over-used word but fitting) band.

[@nicodistorsion4799]

Drone not drones

[@pafsilipoclub]

Thumbs up!!

[@andrepuk]

Olá Atila. Vi o seu comentário por acaso e, como ainda não lhe tinham respondido, respondo-lhe eu. As últimas duas músicas chamam-se Canada e Violent Pass, respectivamente. Cumprimentos de Portugal

[@jimmyboy8005]

What is the effect pedal that Brother Sparhawk is using, the rectangular non standard shaped one?

[@PTS74]

There's two shaped that that, it's either his Zvex Super Hard On or Zvex Octane 3.

[@SirPhilMcCrackinVonBeggington]

32:10 silver rider, one of my favorites by them

[@jingsken]

Setlist?

[@atilagrigio1630]

boa tarde caro amigo sou do Brasil e não encontro muita coisa sobre esta banda, poxa o som deles é muito bom!! E eu queria saber se acaso vc saberia o nome das duas ultimas músicas deste show!!! abraço!!!

[@nikojones5155]

and the verb as well

[@trevordeke]

Is that a wide panel Princeton? Alan Sparhawk, if you are out there, let us know!

[@johnwantling]

If we fast forward to 55.40, the last track begins. Can anyone tell me what its called and which album is it from, please. John Wantling, Rochdale, UK

[@daddyplayedsax]

Violent Past from Drums and Guns

[@pmcd]

Alan Sparhawk and Rand Paul...seperated at birth?

[@neutralgod300]

that band is crazy for having this guy to sing lead meanwhile that woman is a way better singer than him! I don't understand why they don't put her as lead singer! really, why???

[@urrrccckostan]

Fair question!

[@cbarnes25]

CRAP

[@azombiegg]

Why are u subscribed to girls wearing diapers… that’s fucking disgusting

[@eleanormcmahon7657]

They are horrible I mean bad

[@jordanellington3184]

you are horrible. I mean horrible

[@thedayofthedog6477]

Go listen to "violence" and "over the ocean" then tell me about how awful they are again. And what kind of music do you like exactly? Bubblegum pop? "This sucks, I mean it doesn't make me wanna dance at all!" Get in touch with your soul, then you can talk about how bad these pioneers of their genre are.

[@francisbroka9471]

Don't cover yourself with ridiculous by saying such idiocies in front of everybody... Keep your disgusting bad taste for you and go to bed.

[@eleanormcmahon7657]

Look who's talking

[@fernandobocadillos]

Listen again ;)
