Does Wil say 'twerking on your birthday' at the end because that is a way better lyric 😆

[@Treinin]

He definitely did.

[@kinseysneeze6020]

🤣 he really did tho

[@guacamole2402]

I’ve said it before and I will always gladly say it again: Your live mixes are the fucking best. This is such a top notch performance by both the band and the sound engineer. Kudos to you, man!

[@jpm8839]

That was some of the best drumming I've ever seen or heard. Outstanding!

[@whyyes6428]

Go listen to From First to Last, if this is the best drumming you've ever heard..

[@ddbellov8198]

@@whyyes6428 derek is a BEAST. Easily one of my all time favorite drummers.

[@jpm8839]

@@whyyes6428 I think we probably value different things in drumming. I am not really fussed by double kicks and breakdowns. The Smith Street Band's drummer does it for me because he has incredible dynamics and control. He doesn't miss hit once, he's as human metronome, he hits with ferocity when it's needed, he gets beautiful tones out of the drums. He plays the perfect drums to the song. I don't think anyone could have come up with a more appropriate drum track for this.

Is that Dave Woodhead from the Lunch show on triple J?

[@ahhhgooosteeen]

Dam, this was good. Got a new band to listen to!

[@murraycowling931]

Will is a bloody magician! He's amazing live and I couldn't be happier seeing him with that acoustic guitar, fuxk it was so good!

[@LifeofKit]

I would kill for this version to be on Spotify

[@matthunter9853]

Old mate rocking the Hybrid Nightmares T-Shirt. \m/ \m/

[@neonbones7779]

[@ChazMan2007]

[@DaveMartinAU]

[@cal3908]

[@Nasimusicau]

Soooo good

[@connorhalliday7304]

I can't help but feel like the keyboardist walked into the wrong show

[@Widdy72]

I was wondering what the hell the drummer was doing with some of his moves hahaha at the start he's like flicking his stick at the edge of the symbol im wonder what the hell bro

[@davidhooper1610]

Reminds me a little of early, Canadian indie folk punk god, B A Johnston. But more song like, if that makes sense

[@mitchellhyde7486]

Brilliant

[@Ivl0lvl]

Awesome!

[@BBButters]

Hell good!

[@mr.pearlmountain]

[@djangomango9553]

You´ve gained a new fan

[@lewisthomas1118]

This is SO hype! 🎉 I’m in love

[@TheTripster710]

wow these guys kick ass!

[@marrg9052]

If this is the pinnacle of australian music that's sad lol

[@RallickNom]

Nobody said anything about this being the "pinnacle of Australian music"? It's just a great song. The only sad thing here is you.

[@blaked1063]

Smith street band slaps grow up

[@jaydenfisher1887]

Seems like the only thing sad around here is you Margaret given that you felt the need to come here and comment this. Long live the smithies!

[@Chachables]

I'm Romanian and this Australian band rules.

[@guacamole2402]

Oof RIP Marge 😅
