Midnight Oil perform "Put Down That Weapon" at Webster Hall in NYC, May 14, 2017

The legendary Australian rock band played "Put Down That Weapon" in front of 1,500 fans in a sold out Webster Hall. This video was shot on a Sony RX100 V in 4k/24p. Please excuse me for the shaky bits of video as people were pushing into me at times.

Increibles midnight...los vi en Amsterdam el pasado 23/06/2017 con mi amigo Pedro y fue increíble.Llevábamos desde el 89 esperando para verlos que iban a tocar en Madrid pero no vinieron al final...en jácara...y verlos fue algo acojonante. Aún suenan increible y espero volver a verlos este año en Europa...

Incredible band. My faves have usually been the likes of Floyd, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Purple, Heep, Nazareth, Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Rush, ELP, Yes, Supertramp, Gabriel prog-rock Genesis (70-75), Marillion when Fish was in the band, Wishbone Ash, UFO, Garbage, Judie Tzuke, and a band by the name of AC/DC that I saw in a small venue in 1976 when few had heard of them and again in the same small venue in 1977. So I guess I've always felt like an imposter from when I got into Midnight Oil 30-odd years ago, so many top albums I have them all (except the EP's), my favourite Oils albums being Blue Sky Mining, Earth & Sun & Moon (always loved the tracks 'My Country' and 'Outbreak Of Love'), and Capricornia (gorgeous title track and album). Never seen them live but would love to. Amazing band. Great vid btw. Thanks for the upload.

Great message. Great Band!

[@michaelougarezos8963]

world leaders should be listening to this because it's about our children's children future. We can still make our planet peaceful if we rid of greed

Midnight Oil = Class

[@richardh7774]

I was there that night, 30 years had passed and they have not missed a step note nor beat…. sadly their message has not much resonated, as most of what their music is about has not been addressed by those in power ….it saddens me greatly.

[@raphaeltess7448]

[@gpeddino]
