The Living End - E Boogie and Second Solution | THE WOLF HUNTERZ REACTIONS

[@mitchellbeston1033]

The Living End are a brilliant live band.

[@broodingelm2216]

100% agree. Seen them live at least 6 times. Actually met Chris and Scott a few time. First time was in 2001 also met their old Drummer Trav Dempsey (really funny guy). Second time was in 2004 (where I also met Andy). Third and last was in 2017, weirdly Scott remembered me from the previous occasion because of my "Aliens probe Canadians" t-shirt that I've been wearing to pretty much every concert I've been to since I was 14 (I'm not canadian, I bought it at a record store back in 1999, one of a kind. I'm 38 now and it still fits). Would love to see them again if they ever come to town.

Every time they step on stage they give it all they've got!

In 1996 Green Day’s Australian Tour came along, Chris Chaney and Scott Owens found out about it and put together a small package of DIY merchandise, including the band´s first EP, and sent it over with a note saying something like “Can we open for you in Australia?” Two months went by, and they received a call from an Australian producer who told them that Billy Joe Armstrong (a die-hard fan) got the package, loved the name of the band and the songs, and asked for them. They went from playing to 20 people in really small venues to playing 60,000 people in huge stages for their heroes. They didn´t have a record company or a manager and went right back to playing for 20 people the week after the tour finished but could ring anywhere in the country to get a gig for being “the band who did the Green Day tour”.

[@MegaArchiebald]

Yep! And I’ve still got that EP they sold at the Sydney show!

[@publicliarbility7531]

and still are the best aussie live band. Greenday new what they where doing taking these lads along. I remember that tour. it was epic.

[@professornuke7562]

Fireballs had the Psychobilly/Punkabilly audiences pretty much sewn up here in Melbourne. There was an intense rivalry between the bands. Once TLE opened for Green Day they started to get radio airplay. Radio wanted nothing to do with Fireballs. They were a bit too gritty for radio.

[@mistymountainmv]

@@professornuke7562 wow! That’s a band name I’ve not heard for some time👍

[@Notric]

Finally getting to one of my Favourites! These guys are Awesome Live.

[@thetattedpharmacist3215]

They actually opened for Green Day on the Australian leg of the Green Day Bullet in A Bible tour circa 2005 when Green Day were touring the American Idiot album.

[@John-d8v4b]

All these band started in pubs and it was so brilliant never forget this.

[@Paldasan]

How did I miss this reaction. Poor Travis looks absolutely shell shocked by the end. Chin up mate. They're rare breed.

[@jgsheehan8810]

Best current Aussie band I reckon. I’ve seen them a handful of times and they always slay

[@steviegreenthumb4720]

bro the way chris just goes fuckin ham with his beer HES ACTIVELY DRINKING as his slide for his solos while not missing a fuckin note with beer just spilling all over his guitar is the best shit ive ever seen at any live show ive seen em like 3 or 4 times too and its fucking insane every single time lmao

[@ryanbennetts5767]

Guys in Australia this band was one of the best live bands ever❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@breal8939]

Watching them for the 8th time live this weekend

[@MrDellasc]

They kick ass live. I got to see them on a Warp tour, playing on a side stage before they became a headliner. Another great band from Melbourne.

[@Bobsyagod]

The whole first self titled album was great and worth a play through. You've already done Prisoner of Society and Second Solution off it, but they're all worth a go, West End Riot, All torn Down, Save the day were other big releases off it, but my favourite was always Bloody Mary

[@professornuke7562]

The Living End did a cover of Cold Chisel's "Rising Sun". They shot a film clip for it in full Kabuki makeup and Japanese dress. My ex-wife's friend did the makeup, and she practiced the day before on my wife. That day I heard a knock at the front door and there was my wife there in full fright kabuki makeup. Nearly cacked my pants! On the day of the shoot Scott Owen the bass player signed a call sheet for my eight year old son.

[@justburiedentertainment8201]

How are you just now only hearing about the Living End? Lol I saw these guys open for Green Day basically 23 years ago! They are one of the best rockabilly pop punk bands out.

[@bossdog1480]

See if you can find a live version pf The Angels doing 'Will I Ever See Your Face Again.' Plenty of crowd feedback there. 😁😁

[@barbararees604]

These guys revived my faith in Australian rock music, after a long absence of great bands, caused by the rising popularity of rap and techno music. My mum used to nag me about going out almost every night to see live bands, she would say "You'll get bored", but I'm glad I didn't listen and in later years, I told her I didn't get bored, the music got boring. 🤣😉

[@mikey2bucks]

Love the diversity of the songs yall do!

[@nevillewelsh6393]

My sons mate knows Chris Cheney well. He was at one of there album release parties at Chris place. He has a big bowl of M&Ms. Chris said to him if you can swallow one of my goldfish live he could have the bowl. He did and got the bowl of M&Ms He also got it on with one of the Veronicas True story

[@davidmounier2116]

Chris Cheney is a brilliant guitarist

[@curtishughes6186]

you guys always react to my fav shit

[@DrWOF]

The double bass is custom built with reinforcement to withstand being stood on.

[@65cj55]

He's a very underrated Guitarist..

[@John-d8v4b]

Australia rocked it with 60s Easy beats 70s saints . ACDC 80s midnight oil INXS .90s Living End. Grinspoon.

[@johnnyatho]

I remember the with a different name early on as a rockabilly band played at a car show on the Gold coast, Archie Cox from the playroom gave them some space as they worked their arses off seen em twice at the playroom(the pit) and BDO Southport on the Goldy. Yeeeew

[@professornuke7562]

They used to be called The Runaway Boys (after the Stray Cats song).

[@coopsnz1]

The living end - save the day
