Schoolyard Heroes "They Live" (official video)

[@simonkarli7099]

I remember going to this show specifically, In Seattle can’t remember the name of the place but it was next to the highway. Good times 👍

[@Marcalypto]

Same! It was at El Corazon.

this band is incredibly underrated and undergound ,even after all these years.i wish they were still active

They were amazing live

[@theboyoofoly]

@@xzyz8602 "underground" is generally used to describe a non-mainstream band, their last album had one music video that briefly ended up on mtv2, but playtime for all three albums (and their Christmas/Hanukkah special) was mostly reserved for "local highlights" shows on the few radio stations that actually played their music, in any case they were great, and played great shows, let's just enjoy the memories of what once was :)

[@theboyoofoly]

@@xzyz8602 the first two definitely were not, the third had wider distribution but was still difficult to find in physical form, but at that point (2006ish) they were selling music on iTunes and Amazon, but they weren't exactly selling albums at bestbuy or target, even so availability isn't the same as popularity, they were never all that well known, they were mostly known as a small scale local indy band, I wish they had been more well known, but it doesn't matter anymore

[@chillproduction7142]

Thank god for Spotify, I learned about them a few years ago and they, I think, are my favorite band

[@Croc-eb6cf]

I saw these guys a lot when I was growing up. We had all the CDs. I really miss those times; seeing SYH and all the local bands while growing up was the best part of my life. I hope when I have kids there will be another music scene that active and epic to take them to

[@TheSilencer1776]

Fuck man.... I ended up missing these guys when they came through Salt Lake City in around '08, and I'm still hating myself for it. Absolute goosebumps watching the crowd reaction here! Schoolyard Heroes will always go down as one of the top 10 bands I've ever heard, and that'll never change. Maybe one day we'll get a reunion 😮

[@corydeceased]

It's a shame they never got their real chance. But I'm happy I at least found them

[@trudojo]

honestly, they were on the way to fame when she suddenly ditched for new york. Impatience.

[@corydeceased]

@@trudojo & it doesn't help that their name was incredibly similar to another, more popular band at the time

[@tastiefacelez7114]

Still listening to syh in 2020. I used to mosh with them back when I was 13❤❤❤

[@GreasyHorror]

same i miss this band

[@OldScratch78]

I was at this show at El Corazon in Seattle when they filmed this video. God I miss these guys. Hands down one of my favorite local bands.

[@Moonshroom7]

Hey me too!

[@JonOfTheDead23]

I was wondering what venue they were at. They used to come to Ray's Golden Lion in Richland every 6 months or so. I actually thought that's where they shot the video at first. I swear I saw these guys at least 15 times. Absolutely amazing shows. Everybody in town would show up when the schoolyard heroes were in town.

[@tomtheel5713]

I swear they using more locations for the video I see elco and Hell's kitchen the bathroom look like HK .58 of the video looks like HK sound both locations

[@lorenminerich3895]

@@tomtheel5713 Some of this is 100% at HK. I can see me and my friend for a split second. I was at that show and the El Corazon one this was filmed at around the same time. We were kids with not much to do so we saw them around 30 times in this era wherever we could. I got a lot of good stories

[@joshuatabak95]

I miss their "Hone for the Horror days" concerts! They were always a blast. Just fantastic band!

[@barrykinard6096]

I was at Criminal Records in Atlanta one random day in 2006, they were setting up to do a small gig to a small group of Little Five Point hippies buying records...I had never heard of them, yet they became one of my favorites that day. I stumbled upon their second CD one day like 10 years later in a second hand store in Florida, bought it of course, and it has completely rekindled the magic I found that random day back in 2006. Man, I wish they were still together.

[@ceylamb]

the likes and views on this make me so sad. Genuinely one of the best and most underrated hard rock bands of all time.

[@porcelainsins]

I love the schoolyard heroes. I like this song, but serial killers know how to party is my favorite song of all time.

[@EvilEmperorBroccoli]

she has a gorgeous voice,..and she's hott...perfect.

[@middle-fork]

I shot stills at this show -- it was epic! Miss this band dearly.

[@tenhodoenca]

eu quero ser ela quando eu crescer

[@InTheMindOfDavid]

Her voice is just amazing, it’s perfect for the horror motifs of their writing.

[@trudojo]

These were the highest energy shows I have ever been to. El Corazon in Seattle and The Zone in Yakima. This bands name will always be in the back of my head.

[@JoeyWW23]

this just hit different in 2020

[@sunrisecircuit7]

Uncle acid and the dead beats

[@InTheMindOfDavid]

They guys are so good. They used to do shows in my home town pretty often. They even did one of their final shows there. And still to this day I’m super salty that my parents would never let me go to see them live, even when all my friends were going. Like, I got invited to go see them and my parents wouldn’t let me go. Then when my friends told me “Man, you shoulda been there dude! It was so sick. [*insert my friend’s name here*] even got in the mosh pit and got a bloody nose. It was fucking wild!” They then dropped the bombshell that Schoolyard Heroes was breaking up, and I’ve been salty about it ever since. Lol

[@P_DontReally_play-p6t]

Best live show ever

[@supermensaturn]

El Corazon in Seattle.

[@theaspiration]

The left mid stage pillar gives it away. Seen many great shows there. Hope it survives the virus shutdown. One of my favorite venues.

[@DaCrazyDingo]

@@theaspiration They are tearing the OG one down and building a new building on the site with new Elco as the bottom floor.

[@theaspiration]

@@DaCrazyDingo not sure how I feel about this news. I'm gonna miss that dingy club and it's weird shape.

[@DaCrazyDingo]

@@theaspiration 100% feel that. Shiny new with the Elco name on it isn't the same as the original building. That place was wonky. Poles in weird places. Funny shape for sure. Also it's a huge piece of my history. I've played it. I've seen so many bands there. That's a stage that has so much history on it.

this band is so awesome! saw them a while back opening for vendetta red. a sweet show!

[@solarpanelasses]

I'm not really a fan but I remember seeing them a while back and I was really amazed at the vocalist's stage presence.

[@outsider890]

She did the same thing to me! ahh it was very nice. Did she lock her eyes with yours forever too? ahhh.. she's so good on stage!!!

[@ChokinDolphins]

Ugh. Memories. Miss these guys. Also check out Body Shots/Panic in the Year Zero video somewhere on here.

[@damianchenot2667]

I missed following them around the state. Great band! I do remember Ryann getting pissed at us for taking Jonah out for drinks before a show in Olympia. He may have had a bit much to drink and ended up throwing a birthday cake he recieved out into the crowd. It was a good night! I wonder where everyone ended up.

[@ChokinDolphins]

@@damianchenot2667 That sounds hilarious though. All I know is Ryann ended up doing some pop-like music. Don't know much about the others. Boy, do I miss their band's aesthetic.

[@xxxcodypants]

I think I love you. I never thought of it like RHPS, but now that you put it that way, yes! I saw them a couple days ago at the Home for the Horrordays or whatever. The lead wrapped the mich cord around my friend and sang to him, no joke. I was like... /drool.

[@xxdarkgeminixx]

Just started looking up their stuff. It's interesting. I love the blend of synth-pop and metal.

[@Murdereress]

I was just murdered by her charisma. My god, I hope I'm half as goodlooking as she is when I'm on stage.

[@Fauxmadd]

Wish i could have seen live. At least they gave us great music while they could!

[@natalierobinson1529]

They played in my town and I didn't know who they were until like two years later. 😭

15 years.. so under rated

[@tomtheel5713]

Amazing band loves them i watched this video about hundred times i see multiple locations shot for this video but majority of it is at El corazon but i also see Hell's kitchen tacoma things too . i watch cam locations counted them waych how their was aton then just a few cam i seen they had blue sheilds then no Blue shields but only the one who filmed and edit it to match track to live show would know cause unfortunately you would need a bunch of camera to record shots to link it to the track but yes most of it is elco

[@KosherFistsOfFury]

multiply that charisma by thousands, thats somewhere in ballpark of her charisma live

[@GreasyHorror]

IM STILL HERE IN 2024

Is this at the Launchpad in Albuquerque?

she is soo hot she was wearing that same dress when i went to see them at bamboozle left omg i love her

haha I don't get why there is a war going on in the comments. I assumed this video was for fans of the band. Then again this IS youtube. That aside, I'm new to these guys, but from what I've heard from my friend, they are gonna be one of my new favorite bands.

[@anbuispaladin]

i did too

[@Devilot109]

Well, there goes my hope this would help me figure out what this song is supposed to be about. I mean, it always makes me think of The Fair Folk (Faeries, Kind Ones, Good Neighbors, etc.), but I don’t think that was the intent.

Was this flimed at Graceland aka El Corazon?

[@Murdereress]

Oh no, Ryann is shitloads more beautiful. Beyond gorgeus, I'd say. Lyn-Z ain't anything compared to her.

[@DearTrickster]

They are similar but I think it's only in her face and the hair xD.

[@SuperSprinkle]

agreed. and i don't even swing that way =O

[@bigjalil]

double indeed..lol.

[@wanoyo]

that chick is HOT!!!

[@ospididious]

There's nothing wrong with having inspirations. If no one sounded like anyone else then there'd be no Primus, cause they sound like The Residents. And Tom Waits would sound totally different if he didn't take a page from Captain Beefheart. Now totally ripping off a band like Limp Bizkit did to Korn, that's a whole other story. And there's always gonna be at least one member of any band that's gonna be a dick. So don't worry about it.

[@tomtheel5713]

I think it has some shots from HK I ran sound that day they played I had to change cam light colors I counted cam light while watching the video the a bunch then there a few a then there is blue shields the non blue shields but majority of the video is elco but for a live show hard to link and have close ups shot to far away to complete a video I'm not a hundred percent positive but at,58 in the video I see the booth for Hell's kitchen and It look super narrow but most of it is elco only the the person who shot the video know the truth but I'm pretty sure it multiple locations elco HK and maybe some where but most of the video is elco but amazing band and amazing film team to catch all the video with out being in the shot lol

I dont know Eyes Set to Kill - I'll look them up and see for myself. But in my world, no one beets Paramore lol

[@Andy15678]

This singer has wrong band, or more like wrong song composition. Agh, it shall be ball breaking.

[@MorrysnDolling]

ditto. ontop of the horrible-ness of this song, they should change their title. We already have Gym Class Heroes (AMAZING BAND) btw, we dont need heroes on the schoolyard. Plus, the best band with a female lead singer is already out there - Paramore. So take a seat Ryan Donnely, you're not needed.
