[@makeitgrand]

Seeing this in 2024 and realising how this band has aged like the finest wine in the world.

1:49 a wild Brian Posehn appears

[@metalmaniac8935]

I came looking for this comment!!

[@sleepinggiant4083]

Underrated performance of one of their best songs. Love the quality and sound here 💞

[@ratprophet]

shit, Bill was singing harmony

[@RobbieFitzgerald]

I dont think ive ever seen a decent quality video for this song. Thanks!

[@2sc458]

I love they all have the Silverburst finish going on.

[@wadebowser187]

What a drumming piece!

[@tylerjacobson8012]

That’s fucking awesome that bela fleck and Abigail Washburn are mastodon fans.

[@jarrahdrum]

one of my all time favourites, something about it you know

[@carwash9333]

Lol whoever mixed this must have thought Troy did lead vocals on this song. You can hardly hear Brent.

[@lord_foob]

It’s really unfortunate because I can hear Brent giving it his all and I wanna hear it… :/

[@Hippiefunz]

Imagine keeping up with 3 different vocalists on all their different songs performing different lead and backup parts. I'm sure it sounded better coming through the speakers than the recorded PA

[@spencermcbride3881]

I just saw them in August and can confirm they still have the same problem. He was basically inaudible

[@johnnielsen82]

Between Bill's mullet and Brent's outfit he stole off a clothesline, it don't get more metal than this.

[@SweatyMan80085]

Release the footage from the rest of this set. It was such a blast being there

[@skullivanfranklin4117]

Saw em early on in Corpus Christi in 2006 - 2007 best album from them IMO !!

[@InTheMindOfDavid]

Dude, that guitar riff is so fucking good.

[@Sillymonkeies]

So glad I found this video! This song rocks live

[@Godscountry2732]

As always Mastodon delivers the goods.

[@puppetmaster8551]

Any time you get Bill Singing is a great time, wish dude liked singing more because he’s got a solid voice and awesome harsh vocals, would be cool to have all 4 members sing leads at times. Anyway great performance of a great song, mastodon rules.

[@gaspardtombo1750]

You're fuckin' right, Bill's voice is great! I think he would be great singing in The Wolf is Loose the "shapeshifters rolling..." part together with Brent. It would be more powerful playing live. But they are always great. I love Mastodon!

[@NShomebase]

Shoot, I didn't even know Bill ever sang until I watched this.

[@puppetmaster8551]

@@NShomebase only live on a few songs, he’s never sang on record for them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGrFYZqae7imjZI here he does clean vocals for the high road chorus live as well

[@Jizzlobber2]

Jeff Ament: It was cool just to witness all the...debauchery going on out there😃😃😃 - Mastodon are the debauchery Goat of the Rock and metal world😃😃😃😈

[@absenceovmeasurablefrequen1709]

Mastodon has always been fucking RAD.

[@fmahave87]

Awesome!

[@ycolon24]

One of my favorite brent hinds solo.

[@maplebeefbucket9130]

3:23 looks like Jay Weinberg is at the front

[@bamberlamb6512]

That guy crowd surfing at around the three minute mark is having the time of his life

[@nave94]

2:13 🚶🏻‍♂️

[@TheNajdass]

Holy shit. Sick show

[@alant7516]

Troys finger walk

[@slappy2836]

1:45 Brian Posehn spotting!

[@chidell]

My favourite mastodon song hope they play it at download festival 2021

[@morganthomas3212]

Christopher walken asked For an Extra mic backstage for sure

[@Eccentricjuices]

That was fuck’n beautiful man

[@yesfan157]

Gods.

[@thedangersofoxygen135]

They always turn Brent's mic down

[@romanr.4821]

Brian Posehn in the back? (1:49)

[@NShomebase]

Man you can barely hear Brent in this recording, really takes verve out of the harmonies.

[@scoobydoo9312]

kinda wanna die

[@imtrash6713]

[@leeroden7900]

Is this definitely 2008 and not earlier ?
