Operators - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@battlewrathgaming4289]

This might be my favorite set of all time.

[@wolfparadefans8506]

Love Space Needle so much! Can't wait for their debut record to come out!

[@crunchb3rry]

+WolfParadeFans "I'm dreaming in your waiting room." This guy has such great lyrics.

[@harrisonjr98]

Dan in a suit looks like Bradford Cox going to a costume party as Nick Cave.

[@tyrelsnowden1982]

+Harrison Wilson Nailed it. Well done.

[@davidcraig3290]

Space needle gives me chills

[@RandomRants]

I just saw them in Atlanta and I will say to anyone, "it's a show worth seeing." Like the Grand Canyon or Mona Lisa, no video or photo can reproduce what that experience was like. Maybe one of the best shows I've ever seen.

[@RandomRants]

+Andrew Clock Free thinking. Free people. The lyric "Another year, another year of elections..." has me wondering about Boekner's take.

[@RandomRants]

+Andrew Clock I'm a gay, gun-owning, professional and I meet more people all the time. People are coming around but we're definitely the minority. I will say, people have started coming to me on matters political because they think I understand it. I am trying to find the best way of getting the message out.

[@RandomRants]

+Andrew Clock Peace, love, and positivity. I trust good people to do the right thing. Always.

[@crotchfocket]

I got the set list from this show! Had a conversation with Dan after the show, he's such a humble and down to earth guy.

[@RandomRants]

Matt DeMilner We had a very similar experience. He talked with me and some friends and let us get a picture instagram.com/p/BEU_fKpNRwj/?taken-by=facereplacer Very humble and approachable on top of amazingly talented.

[@claudioog]

Dan is a genius. What a voice! Sounds like Bowie.

[@elcoas]

This is so different. I do not know why, but I love it.

[@BigBlack81]

+elcoas I could give my view why...but then that would sully how awesome it is. So I shant. XD

[@AlexWarble]

I’ve watched this so many times 🙏🏼🙌 love Love LOVE

[@isabellegrebaux8310]

I really love your music . I'm french girl , so sorry with my Strange sentence .

[@jdmcnugent6808]

I love french women :)

[@Astral_Wave]

It was grammatically fine and inconspicuous until you chose to further volunteer information of it lol ♡

[@DUTCHswift]

I've seen this band more times than I've wanted to.

[@happyjessus]

this is so much better than most new-coming hipster/poser bands we usually see on KEXP and forget about the same day

[@crunchb3rry]

I'll listen to anything from Dan. The guy is a hugely underrated musical genius. I only liked Wolf Parade for what Dan contributed (same with Divine Fits). Operators is the perfect band because he gets to do it all. And Devojka is the perfect complement to him...even though I wish she was still rocking her previous hairdo. ;)

[@AK-cm8qe]

+crunchb3rry Check out Handsome Furs if you haven't already. Another project slanted more towards Dan's songwriting.

[@harrisonjr98]

+crunchb3rry Agree that he's highly underrated but Spencer is a genius too and the news of Wolf Parade being a thing again is fucking fantastic.

+crunchb3rry Listen harder to Divine Fits. Britt is one of the few modern rock "stars" who has Dan beat.

[@robertbuckley649]

Interesting... I actually wasn't as big on Divine Fits as I was Handsome Furs. I actually think Operators is his best outing yet and they're even one of my favorite bands altogether at this point. Still, Wolf Parade EP4 is awesome and I'm happy they're back together, I just hope it doesn't mean less of this group!

[@user-zk7os5tp4u]

Dan and Spencer together are the best, Spencer is a genius..in my opinion

[@odysseynz]

Cool and excellent

[@davidcraig3290]

Space needle is one beautiful song.

[@abrahamprada5882]

Elliptical is called Control on the album

[@juliangrant8358]

outstanding

[@lucaspanizza]

coolest thing ever

[@HMan2828]

Oh this is so industrial-delicious. I sense a lot of PM/Bauhaus influence. Those synths are really good too.

[@FromDkWithLove]

Mmmh, That hits the spot. What a performance. Wow!

[@rabismenow]

I could trip to this.

[@PurpleHazeMaze]

lovin it

[@travelsinbriggio]

excellent

[@S.Innuendo]

Großartig! Love it!

[@davimattos7081]

Tight! Tight! Tight!

[@daveco1270]

Good stuff. Love his vocals. Has a bit of a retro 80's vibe to it, in all the right ways. I didn't realize this was the same guy who teamed up with Britt Daniel to form Divine Fits. Talented guy.

[@alex_libelula]

this is awesome, thx :D

[@IDisorder7]

awesome. It reminds me of Fad Gadget

[@ulissep3454]

Oh hell yes!

[@Radixxs]

Holy fuck.

[@bitbeak]

Good Tunes.

[@clemensottawa1780]

He is just (sadly) one of the last true musicians, who show all the skills and emotions on stage...One of the reasons, why I honestly think Wolf Parade is the best band of all at the moment

[@juliogarcia8646]

Love his old group now this is fuckin great he looks like a cross of Steve Buscemi and Peter Murphy.

[@robstrange]

The brilliant Australian band The Church has a song named Space Needle, featured on their 2009 album Untitled #23.... maybe these Operator guys were 'influenced'.... certainly unusual for two different bands to come up with such a unique song title

[@waseatenbyagrue]

Song titles often are repeated and cannot be claimed for protection.

[@suburbs777]

Wolf Parade are coming back, finally!

[@rkbmx]

Dig this shit, so hard.

[@alveek]

They could be popular in 80's.

[@wszyscyzginiemy7844]

9:50 lol

[@AntDawg766]

+wszyscyzginiemy Metallica

[@SpookyGhost999]

+Antonio Gonzales song name? can't remember

[@Alva2323]

+Piwi Welcome home (sanitarium)

[@SpookyGhost999]

+The non-austere non-australian ooh now I remember, thanks!

[@Q.Q.]

Like the sound. Wish music were more varied melodically.

[@ronschwartz5565]

if nicholas cage and javier bardem had a baby.......this guy

[@vanessajanke2470]

I'm sorry I'm only now seeing that. I'll have to have my husband read it. :)

[@brianvelasco1437]

Fuck yeah. That is all

[@notlhe81]

genial

[@biotoxgen18]

Норм музон, вокал хорош!

[@stevemcqueenii1547]

+biotox ну а хуле))

[@PcGameGold]

fuc in ace, xtc meets pere ubu and has a stranglers baby!

[@vredneckv]

Fuckin brilliant.

[@Oofglobber]

A veces el cantor parece como Adrien Brody.

[@liranshrem8054]

first song on the setlist is Control, i think ,not Elliptical..

[@BigBlack81]

#mindblown

[@benleclair3977]

Let her make some back vocal...!!! its good

[@mschaffner2270]

Totally dig watching Sam Brown on the drums! Feversmile!

[@LippensEnte]

Can someone please explain to me what kind of instruments the girl uses and how they are played?

[@MegaJodyC]

kinda sorta reminds me of Roxy Music

[@MrKlaymanTom]

I can see it a little bit, a Roxy Music/LCD Soundsystem hybrid.

[@davey2656]

fuckin' a, good

[@MrDonutslut]

wish wolf parade would get back together eh?

[@gamecocks100]

they are

[@labluecarpet]

this guy is a good psycho singer

[@mikelflowers523]

Nicolás Cage singing?!!! Wow

[@nymike06]

The keyboard player is cute!

[@imOverWhere]

I wonder how many songs dan's wrote

[@jebus571]

Little bit of Metallica at the 10 minute mark

[@omnizeitgeist2779]

Holy fuck...
