[@mitchwallace1140]

This is why I wish a reunion tour would happen. This was SO GOOD! it will suffice. But Ill never give up hope.

[@brettdarnell1257]

This was a treat to watch! Between 2003-2017 I had had the privilege to see Mutemath in their various forms 8 times, and hands down they are the best live band I have ever seen. Period. I loved every second of watching this! This is a band I have and will continue to miss…

[@katiemorris8478]

I was at this show!!!! We had a hunch that this was going to be their last performance so last minute we bought tickets and it was a 6+ hour drive for us. Absolutely one of the best days of my life!!! The crowd was so electric this night and the band had so much energy! Absolutely so happy we went to this show and so thrilled that they released this live footage!!!!

[@JPerry-pn2mc]

What an epic final tour. I saw it in Denver. I was so happy Paul did everything in his power to bring it to MM fans at the time. - The touring musicians did a phenomenal job. - Let me also just say the live adaptation of “Changes” was so well done. This entire album, along with the live show, still gives me chills to this day. - The creativeness of tying in prior albums, jam sessions, mixes, and the show itself. Just wow. Thank you for doing this, Paul. #longliveMUTEMATH 🎶 🎃

[@harbushy]

Aw, this was great! I only discovered them after the breakup, though it gave me a chance to realy appretiate what they had going on! It is a pleasure knowing this music still lives on!

[@louiesosa4668]

Saw them in SF on this tour. What a delight of sound.

[@washyourhead]

Mutemath is an emotion. Raw, powerful and oh man, I miss it.

[@MitchMelin]

I miss you guys so much. Last time I got to see Mutemath live was 2 days after my boss and friend took his life. I still went to the show, and I'm glad I did. But man do I miss him and wish we were still getting music from Mutemath.

[@zachindes]

Having seen MM a handful of times, they will forever be the best live act I've ever seen. I can remember being introduced to them by a youth leader around '06 and haven't stopped listening since. I have countless memories of their music in my life. What great impact those 5 albums did. Mutemath Forever.

[@miguelleon7514]

grew up with mutemath since i was 12 and now im 21 and will always be my all time favorite band. i wish i was able to watch them live

[@suomi35]

I agree with everyone here; I was lucky enough to see them twice in the late 2000's. Every element of the performances were exceptional. I have yet to see a tighter group. The music, stage presence, everything, as natural and polished as possible. Truly memorable nights.

[@Raaaaaaaaaaandy]

Thank you for sharing the memories and hope to see you back one day!

[@danielponik5263]

Break the Fever transitioning into Armistice is so damn good.

[@AgentSnow]

So good! Hutch is a beast. B-Face, Gummerman, and Meany. The best. Thank you for sharing! Forever grateful for your music.

[@millderbeast]

This is amazing so instead of dwelling on what we lost, I'm focusing on what we have to cherish.

[@gabiwho]

Seeing this video triggers so many beautiful memories. I remember flying all the way to Orlando, FL one week after hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico to see you guys play for the second time. This will forever be one of my favorite bittersweet concerts. I really miss you guys. House of Blues Orlando - 09/28/2017 ❤

[@bendavies8129]

I only managed to see MM once in Birmingham in the UK, on the Vitals tour in 2016, but it was an incredible show. Still remember being in the front row and having Darren triggering samples by hitting gloves worn by the guys in the crowd. Anyone else want to share any MM show memories? No doubt there's loads!

[@LukaelPlays]

I saw them in Montreal a few years back, and to this day it's still the best show I've ever seen! I remember Darren pouring two full pitchers of water on the drums mid song and water splashing everywhere on the crowd with ever hit, and them trading instruments mid song, Paul getting up on the piano... SO MUCH energy in that show! I'm really sad that they've split........

[@FrostAndTheForest]

I went to Berlin on that same tour just to see them. The whole weekend was surreal, to finally see them after a decade long wait, and them exceeding every expectation I had! Darren had a fever but we couldn't tell - everything was perfection. And that air mattress with lights that Paul used to crowd surf at the end was just the cherry on top :D. I am so happy I travelled all the way there to see them, not knowing that really was the last chance to do so...

[@sebosborne]

Saw that tour in Bristol, UK - met Paul after the show, came away with a set list that’s now framed on my wall and with a video of Paul singing in to my camera. I will always cherish that memory seeing MM with my little sister for the first time

[@bowlie18]

Was there in Birmingham too, the only time I got to see them. Tiny venue but great.

[@TheAsphyx666]

God, I miss this band.

[@justinvarghese1077]

I loved what they did live visually and musically with Stratosphere. Was my favorite back catalog track on tour that year.

[@thewhisperingglen]

So many great moments with you guys (Well…Paul, Adam, Hutch, Darren, Dave, and Roy). Allll the way back to the early 2000s. Honestly, as silly as it sounds, basically set the trajectory of my life after high school with my move to Nashville. Thank you for the memories, and for letting me be a part of it in some way. I wish you all the best!

[@Kmax1424]

Dang that was great, I never got to see them on their last 2 tours,. I am thankful that I got to see them five times

[@sirerules]

Please just leave this up. I will definitely watch this over and over

[@seancheek6196]

What a privilege to have seen this tour. Just preorder the vinyl. Can't wait to spin it.

[@angieleman5394]

"That's my new favorite version of that song"...for every song. Love always.

[@peace_1973]

Stratosphere, on repeat 🔁 for the rest of my life ❤️🙏 thank you for such beautiful music 🎵

[@SeaNSun32]

You are missed. Best live shows of any band ever.

[@arjanvelthoven3685]

What a show! Incredible. Brings back many memories and emotions as well. Never thought I'd tear up watching this but I did many times. These songs and this band meant so much to me. Mean so much me to this day. A reunion one day would be great but for now I'm grateful for the legend Mutemath is.

[@hip-hoplegend9882]

I got to see them live over ten years ago. Watching this just makes me miss them so much. We need Mutemath again!!

[@fiffanatic17]

One of the greatest bands of all time. It saddens my heart that it's really over. I started listening to them in 04 when I saw them at the fringe stage at Creation. I heard people walking to the show saying wait till you hear the drum solo on that reset song. What a momentous day that was for me. Mutemath became a reality in my life. Im just happy I got to see them like 5 times over the 15 years they were a band. Mutemath Forever Remains!

[@giovannyhernandez5956]

Oh pero que hermoso. Me hubiese gustado asistir, es de otro planeta esta presentación. 🪐 Saludos desde Ciudad de México. Mutemath vive en nuestros corazones, sigue sonando en nuestras cabezas. Por siempre Mutemath. We love You

[@kidyuki1]

Thank you so much for releasing this! Such a bittersweet and wonderful show.

[@ThePlagueGameing]

Had the pleasure of seeing them 4 times. Off the hook!. Also got to see Earthsuite a few times which was the precursor to MM. When you have a group of genius musicians it's difficult to stay together forever!. 😎

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Man I would have loved to see earthsuit! I saw MM a couple of times

[@1313mojica]

This band. This record. This tour was amazing. I’ll never forget seeing them for the first time in 2006. Every album and tour in the past, they delivered! Every single time. I love this band so much 😢❤

[@mau6331]

Hope you guys come back one day.

[@fidybeanbird]

Too bad as a foreigner, I’ll never have a chance to see them LIVE anymore 😢

[@griffinlauerman7793]

We need more MuteMath. New album, new songs, new tour!

[@BobMock]

Paul hittin me right in the feels with the shoutout to the guys on the stage there before the encore.

[@charlesdaigle8633]

Great to see this much of the show. So many excellent songs, but "Marching" always touches me most..

[@michaeljones1166]

2 of the best live performances I have ever seen with my kids in tow were these guys. Thanks for the memories.

[@sebosborne]

Went to the London leg of this tour, following a period of what felt like mourning for my favourite band and whatever was going on but my word, this show was incredible! Paul bringing his A game, Hutch killing it, Jonathan playing like a freak and for me an unsung hero and rock for the two shows I saw - Todd, I love your work! I live in hope that one day I’ll get to see these guys in some shape or form again live, but if not - Mutemath will always be my favourites. Always.

[@jonathanaquino8772]

Mutemath changed my whole perspective on life

[@MrAppleman89]

MuteMath will always be my favorite band. Wish someday you guys will get back together or release a b-sides record.

[@1stargazer12]

I got to see y’all 2x, both in 2017, Texas Homegrown Festival in March, and Tulsa in October. Y’all were fantastic and I miss MM dearly, but I’m always looking at what Paul and Darren and Todd are doing. Love you guys so much! Also, early this year I managed to find Play Dead on vinyl, brand new.

[@merijnbakker497]

Thanks for putting this material online, can't wait for the day you're going to release new music! ❤

[@domweiss846]

I miss you guys.

[@sdp-ui2lw]

I unfortunately was never able to the band live. This is a great opportunity 🙌. I have given up and accepted that this great band may never walk on stage together again. But I will hold out for a miracle 🙏 that it could happen? Maybe Paul and Darren will look back and bury the hatchet one day.

[@btorres222]

Thank you for releasing this! Such a bittersweet show. I saw y’all in Denver and as always it was such an amazing show

[@kyleplatz3751]

I really wish Stall Out were in here- my fav part of the show. Still, pretty dope we’re getting another MM Live record! Thanks Paul.

[@138152930]

So good. So full of energy and life. Thanks for streaming this on YT. Been awhile since I've seen MM live and in person.

[@austinm.drumming9282]

So refreshing to hear another live show, miss you guys greatly! Grateful to have seen 5 shows myself, best live band ever! Your music has always been a huge part of my life and forever will remain that way :)

[@brianward6291]

SO COOL!!! Thank you for the upload!

[@tristanswang6090]

Just the best.

[@BobMock]

Thanks Paul for putting this out. Great footage and the mix was spot on.

[@justinvarghese1077]

So good! Jonathan and Hutch did amazing stepping in making this tour happen. I hope to see these guys play live again soon.. Maybe next year with Paul? 🤩😆😊

[@treynobles]

I’m reliving my first and only concert I saw of you guys through this video. Much love to you all and long live MuteMath!

[@germanfonsecacamargo2344]

gracias gracias!! thank you !!

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Man, hutch is actually a beast on the drums, he just brings a friggin mad vibe and his drum sound is mint! Such difficult circumstances to be playing in too.

[@jamesdorward6329]

Thank you fellas 🙏🏻❤️

[@christopherm6725]

Hutch is phenomenal, but it just doesn’t hit me the same. The drums are tuned tighter, he plays so clean and doesn’t move much when he plays. It’s a solid set. It’s amazing how the drummer sets the tone. I’d love to see MM play together again and I’d love to see hutch play more.

[@inoblesinobles2836]

Woooohoooo!!!!

[@Hyperslob]

Great performance!

[@yourwrightyourworld]

My favorite band!

[@chongzilla]

I miss this musical feel and the soaring vocals!

[@Ke3bz]

been in love since Earthsuit and how the hekk is it THIS much later and I still am blown away by every performance, every song!? Even in Paul's Productions, esp with twenty one pilots, it lives on in full

[@DaniRosenoerOfficial]

Mutemath fan 4 life

[@EricGranata]

The first time I saw Mutemath, they were opening for Radiant in OKC. Completely blew my mind.

[@hoodah7158]

straight 🔥🔥🔥

[@TheZandernator]

Cried at the end of this

[@Revdrum]

I love this so much.

[@garrettnewman7438]

It confounds my brain that this was FIVE years ago

[@jethrobrussaard]

This is SO good!!

[@rockmediasav]

HUTCH kills it

[@sirerules]

I never got to see you guys live, this is great

[@timmiller9599]

Need new MUTEMATH!!!!! Where you guys hiding?????

[@brynnjones8799]

Ama-ZING

[@trevman_825]

Blew the roof off that place.

[@louiesosa4668]

Nice with used to remix into blood pressure

[@tennisiswonderful]

How much would it cost to have you guys play someplace? I'd set it up. Just wondering what the number would be.

[@johanvilde69]

Are we ever gonna see the full concert in DC?

[@israelguerra4463]

Paul Meany is a musical genius.

[@ZenyattaIV]

Never got to see them on the farewell tour, which always killed me. This is better than nothing, but now I know what I missed. 🤣 Just amazing.

[@Kevin.H-t6x]

Is there any live footage for the rest of the one hour of this show?

[@volpe_sol]

Fuck, it's been that long since they broke up? It feels like yesterday.

[@Revdrum]

Release the audio!!

[@flickering_wick]

10:05 He just casually pulls his hair off 😄

[@g3thefallout269]

Anybody know why they didn’t post the whole show?

[@16blw05]

The costumes are cool. Having the original members would be cooler.

[@eriedmann]

Wait... the final show ever was just an hour long??

[@kyleplatz3751]

No, more like 2 and a half, this was edited down

[@theoriginaltommysteward]

Yeah I was there. It was much longer than this.

[@Spendycakes]

Can someone hit me with the setlist?

[@sdp-ui2lw]

It's available on Mutemath's Instagram page.

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Hutch does a better job of changes by a long shot

[@AaronSegura]

Who are these people doing MUTEMATH covers?

[@AtomEcho]

WHAT...That is not mutemath...sorry. Idk who the drummer, bass, or guitar player is...

[@edplaysdrums8435]

The drummer is the drummer from earthsuit, Darren quit because his wife had his 🏀⚽️ in her purse (from what I gather)

[@Webbassmann]

have you been living under a rock?

[@AtomEcho]

@@Webbassmann No, I saw one of thire last shows with the full band. So, no...

[@juanmalagon7946]

We miss you!
