The Fall Of Troy - Chain Reaction 2007-01-21 [FULL SET]

2 cam mix
filmed by chris avis and myself

[@androoeff]

i know no one will believe me, but this is andrew, and i was just really high + hadn't played the song in at least 6months, so i spaced everything after the intro. but i fucked up lots of other times too, i am not a perfect drummer or person :) just glad people had fun

[@anthonyviramontes8617]

Andrew Forsman I know it’s you and this was honestly such an amazing performance. I wish I could’ve witnessed it in person.

[@slickrickthemagik]

@andrewforsman you sounded pretty good bro, you're human no biggie

[@Lucasmsmpro]

It didnt help that tom kinda skipped a beat on the vocals

[@openmusicriv]

We can all be our own biggest critic sometimes. I reckon you nailed it, youre by far my favourite drummer of all time

[@androoeff]

@Matt G Just weed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@androoeff]

Thanks to everyone who said nice stuff and enjoyed the vid or the show. The cymbal was probably a 22" but it was at least 20" as I rarely played anything smaller. Also to the other guy, I think that kick was 24x18

[@skramzrave]

your so cool for replying to people and shit man

[@NLORGx]

Amdrew hi! Can you say hi to me!

[@agdrummer2610]

Dude you guys slayed this show!!

[@androoeff]

Hi@@NLORGx

[@RoanElvis]

Andrew Forsman: falls behind in timing on a hard as fuck song, gets torn to shreds by the other two band members, then continues to launch into the holy tape like nothing happened. hero of our time

[@chrishaas1511]

Thank you

[@noesunyoutuber7680]

Cut Down All the Trees actually starts at 2:46.

[@AdamJamesPhotography]

This is the best TFoT video on KZbin, and I've seen 'em all.

[@sergioperrezz]

I'm in the beginning and it's great. 🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@pierat___]

Too true, 8 years on! Thom is truly on form here.

this band is the reason i can play guitar

[@NavRocket]

The Dark Trail was the song that got me obsessed with The Fall of Troy. Many thanks for uploading this.

[@ricsilva1973]

The way they went in to Sledgehammer. Just a fucking heavy blow of energy. The fall of fucking Troy ❤

[@elephantricity]

So happy to see Tim back in the mix on their new tour. He looks more energetic then ever in the new videos.

[@MrNEEZLY]

Love this fucking band. I like when just three people can stand on a stage and own the room. Primus, nirvana, fall of troy etc. A lot of greats. Alchemy Hour is another great three peace. Can't find much on em but they have a sick sound.

[@XxAkatsxX]

so true

[@elephantricity]

wow, a live set of tfot I have never seen. Much thanks for postings this up. A great band that is sorely missed.

[@fergar0206]

It shows musicianship. Most bands today never stray away from 4/4. Also most of the time bands that vary their time signature have some jazz influence which shows actual appreciation and knowledge of music. There are tons of bands that have hundreds of songs with the exact same signature and sort of formula, its just nice when you hear something fresh and different.

[@younglove9565]

THEY'RE BACK TOGETHER GUYS!

[@doesnotafraidable]

just for a reunion though? please correct me if I'm wrong :)

[@georgemckenna4331]

doesnotafraidable They are going to make a FREE album or something like that I saw it on FaceBook. :)

[@JosueRodriguezTonUpBoy]

George McKenna i went to the reunion shows and they said they are definitely going to tour a little and yeah the free music

[@georgemckenna4331]

Josue Rodriguez Do you think they would do a gig in France ???

[@sammi3co490]

Josue Rodriguez I see they're up in New York and in Texas end of October. There's a couple of days in between where Thomas hasn't given the location yet inbetween three shows. (28th and 29th October) Can't wait :)

[@scrambeaux]

Damn... you still did amazing! Thanks for the show you did in San Luis Obispo in 2010, one of the best nights of my life.

[@gumshake689]

i love Andrew's drumming style, so much groove

[@richnfg_7882]

so catchy too

[@fransiscomarrujo629]

Me in 2022 hyped they’re still making music together and was able to see them live finally!

[@1911Ryguy]

I miss the way tim plays, and the way thomas sings. love you much for posting a complete tfot show!

[@tfot0907]

I wish I had a time machine so I could attend this concert. I would bring one person along haha

[@poseidonskissproductions8901]

So fuckin gangster. That was awesome

[@veganrippadaaawwwwg]

so fuckin gangster !

[@jgruv20]

Don't get me wrong this video is sick and the quality is great, but TFOT should have definitely recorded a professionally made live DVD with this lineup when they were at their peak. Thomas, Andrew, and Tim were amazing together and have a superior musical insight that most other bands don't have. These guys just meshed and will be remembered as an influential, unique and creative band. Can only hope these guys come back someday or at least play one more show down the road. And fuck yeah Andrew!

[@UFalum2011]

John Gruver yea I agree. It crushes my soul knowing they never had a full on professional recording of a full set like this. At least not from this era. Has anyone seen one that I am missing??

[@ItUnidentified]

UF_Alum2011 there are some that don’t exist as I have confirmed with Tfot fans from around Europe and North America mostly... we can expect gradual releases there have been old era videos coming out since their reformation and especially after ok and the current mulkiearth record

[@aslfata]

so sick. i was here for this and saw people recording but never knew it was released

[@aterraformer]

Thank you for blessing my eyes and ears with this awesomeness.

[@Masheww73]

heaps good footage, thanks

[@detox2retox]

YES! Look at Tim all swaggered out

[@ihaztehSNIPAH]

"So fucking gangster" *crowd surfs*

[@theblindsniper]

I SECOND THIS! I'd totally go to a reunion show, I was so bummed I missed the shows you guys did through the years :(

[@DGD4Landy]

I wish i could just go back in time :(

[@ventor11225]

Holy SHIT!!! These guys were SPOT-ON live!! What a fucking gem, too bad they quit. :/

[@trhsailor]

great sound guys..keep up th great work!

[@MrNEEZLY]

The fall of Troy in their prime... Pure badassness. I found a pretty dope 3 piece band the other day called 'Alchemy Hour' playing this song 'screwdriver'. Sick ass video too. Look em up.

[@guitaoist]

Crowding surfing 1 minute into your own set is awesome

[@MrDinospike]

I love TFOT live now but I have to say there is just a different energy from this Trio when they are together. I respect Tim’s decision not to tour but I want to say I miss him. Love you bud!

[@detox2retox]

Dear god, the OUTRO on this is insane...

[@mattnunesmusica]

14:21 best part of this show

[@Riggy2k3]

it made me emotional how dope that was

[@Cortez1893]

I had seen this show many years ago and only recently remembered this line and had to dig into all the laces out Dan only to find it hidden in this gem of a video. Easily the best part of the show, made the break down even more gangster

[@juancitolimon8743]

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ

[@fergar0206]

THE DARK TRAIL LIVE OMFG, THIS IS GOLD

[@elephantricity]

Thumps up this set list with times!! Intro -- 1:40 Cut Down the Trees -- 2:58 FCPREMIX -- 6:24 JAM -- 10:07 Laces Out Dan -- 12:45 The Dark Trail -- 18:17 Shh!

[@amazingoranges]

if it is in fact u, i would like to thank u 4 being the single most important influence on my efforts to learn how to drum :)

[@bobeofoshoo]

tim is a great bassist, they were so much better with him in albums and live.

[@jgwentworthnsm]

holy shit i remember being here one of the best shows of my teen years

[@tfot0907]

I totally know what you mean diamondheartswells!! Soo glad I watched this!! :]]]

[@guitaoist]

14:23 ive NEVER seen the guitarist/vocalist and drummer crowd surf at the exact same time

[@twitchthepocket]

i am astounded by how good his vocals were back then. he can't sing like this anymore lmao

[@guitaoist]

That drummer is bustin his ass, Thomas is a beast and not easy to keep with

[@TheDairack]

the Motorola RZR camera phone at 13:35 hits me right in the feels

[@Darktega]

Loved the pre-Act One, Scene One.

[@maxstone96]

I've taught myself 10 of their songs and am learning more. Andrew had his work cut out for him here, believe me, I'm a drummer.

[@Masheww73]

Sledgehammer lyrics fit so well in Act One Scene One Intro

[@pabonjor]

That Act One, Scene One intro is fucking amazing.

[@mimekiller17]

OMG THEY PLAYED THE DARK TRAIL. THIS IS ONE OF ONLY 2 TAPES OF THOMAS THE DARK TRAIL LIVE!! woo

[@dannyxmendoza]

I wish at this one, they played all of my favorite songs.

[@brainless14]

I know this was posted a while back and thank you very much for posting. As a videographer it was really annoying seeing so many cross fades. Something fast paced and hectic like this requires almost all quick cuts. If you watch any live video, especially of a heavy band, you will see almost no cross fades. I'm sure you are/were a student or something so just putting my knowledge out there.

[@zxzxzxzPDOGZzxzxzxz]

Rockstar nailbomb! and laces out, dan were so sick also fcpremix but I mean that's always a sick song live

[@Pmchlb03]

the energy, man

[@DatingTV]

Hahaha those screams at the end are definitely present in his The Hills Have Eyes-vocals.

[@VashD15]

We don't talk about that. For all intents and purposes, Manipulator was their last album, and ITUE was a Just Like Vinyl test run.

[@hayatohuseman]

The most intense hour on KZbin.

[@Pierorocks]

The good ol' days without barriers.

[@Antlion161]

That jam 37:41 till 40:30 is so fine. Someone rip it into an MP3!

[@fathairysack]

i could listen to the act one scene one intro for the rest of my life

[@devinjabir]

Hey I was just wondering if you knew the lyrics or had recorded the little jam at 38:00? It's seriously my favorite thing in this video and really speaks to me. Thank you!

[@FluffyThieves]

Oh damn, I was at this show. I talked to Thom after the show and he was pissed lmao

[@tlptank]

yeah i have listen to their first album again, i cant believe i forgot what "what sound does a mastadon make?" sounds like

[@SunKing333]

I remember seeing these guys in Fresno CA at “the rainbow ballroom” with deftones and (dir en grey?) this was early 2007-8 if I remember correctly

[@BetweenTheBuriedAndI]

That jam song before Laces was awesome

[@CrentDub]

Great!!!!!!

[@defyvoxpopuli]

the song you don't know is the best one on the setlist! and probably my all time favorite song of theirs.

[@Dropsix]

What are you up to these days? You guys were awesome and your drumming was always amazing.

[@MrDeven1111]

the jam sounds alot like as cities burn. dig it.

[@LanOsb133]

CAn you guys do a reunion tour soon. Just one tour, and please hit up chain. I was unfortunate enough to only get into you guys a couple months after you guys broke up but since then I have been absolutely obsessed about how you guys sound tighter than bands twice your size. And if you need a bassists for the tour I know a lot of your songs by heart :3

[@xarliie00]

The intro is "A Man A Plan A Canal Panama"

[@kh2freek]

THE DARK TRAIL LIVE I LOVE YOU

[@kevingrant4837]

That thrashing at the end... I always knew TFOT could do it

[@BasedGotenks]

One of the rare times they ever did Dark Trail. Such a boss ass song

[@alex30yw]

goddamn itd be fun to play there

[@DarKEmxX]

I need the set list for this. :D

[@scholarshipzz]

thanks 4 the upload, shame tom put the drummer on blastoise like that tho.

[@GavinOswald]

what do you mean by that?

[@bigace511]

Code Orange Gavin He told Drew to add more kick to the bass drum, probably the equipment.

[@DownSouthable]

Man TFOT put on the best performances ive seen. Shame their gone now...

[@amnesiacphlgm]

hey do you think you could upload this somewhere in avi or something? some higher quality would be very appreciated.

[@CrapAttack42]

@okamasphere Actually no, at 52:20 they play Tom Waits.

[@protestanimalsaslead]

you are the smartest person on youtube

[@Notjayke]

THE DUDE PLAYING GUITAR AT THE VERY END OF THE SHOW IS NICK REINHART FROM TERA MELOS

[@OlimCouch]

i found fall of troy right as the unlikely event came out and honestly all their albums posses great musical feel and power. i saw them at their second to last show in nyc. i was only 12 so i prob shit my pants. i'm sad they broke up and i believe the unlikely event is just a part of the legend that fall of troy is

[@idlesofmarch]

Thomas is amazing

[@YAAVMS]

Then intro they started Out with when they got on stage is the breakdown of sledge hammer off the album manipulator if any one was wondering

[@anthonyviramontes8617]

Ya Qwaynza Maddox it’s actually from A Man A Plan A Canal Panama. The songs are in two different tunings. Sledgehammer in drop D and a man a plan is in e standard

[@beowman]

i think your a fantastic drummer!

[@2upacalypsenow]

[@JohnnyPartV]

27:45 is What Sound Does A Mastadon Make.

Ay Happy anniversary, Houston show killed.

[@detox2retox]

1:40 Intro starts and Thom's guitar volume is turned town and he has to turn it up...meanwhile Tim and Andrew keep rocking out XD

[@naundes]

i think the dark trail and sledgehammer are my favorite songs but everything else rocks too

[@wonnie]

@ianhatz Complete improv... some of their improvs are REALLY awesome.

[@1911Ryguy]

what song did they "stump" them with? that they wanted to hear at the end 58:00 ?
