Music like what Alter Bridge creates is why I fell in love with Rock and Roll in my youth when I bought my first guitar. This is next level, top of their game musical genius. Not just simple canned or cliche riffs....truly innovative. These guys are true professionals, they are legendary in my book.
Mark Tremonti is one of the most pivotal guitarists of modern mainstream rock IMO. I used to say underrated but, Im glad to see it seems he's finally getting the recognition he deserves as a skilled musician.
9:29 is the most rock and roll think you'll ever see. Outta nowhere with zero explanation. God bless Rio. As for the band, someone said it earlier and they're right. AB is our version of Zeppelin. Let's enjoy them while we can.
I remember that day, they said that Myles got sick days early... It's so clear, Myles has a little nose voice, and sometimes he not goes to high notes. Even sick, he's fucking good! Damn
the song Blackbird means so much to me. around the time this song came out my nephew took his own life, he was 27. every time i hear this song it reminds me of him. i miss you Alex
Son potentísimos en directo!!!! Que increible banda Dios mio!! La que han liado con Metalingus ahi en Riooo!! Ya son para mi una banda mítica, a la vez q son el futuro del Rock!!! ❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘
One of Brian Marshall's strongest performances! Love it; keep bringing the thunder. The band did a great job adapting to Myles being sick and still putting on a memorable performance!
Dude he was sick?!?!?!?!?! I've noticed that he didn't hit specific high notes but just thought it was his choice today at the office. Love Myles during metalingus and rise today, they should do those more often. AND MARK!!!! Dont get me started on MARK!!! Waters rising imo the best performance of the song and MARK. Amazing musicians...

God I wish Alter Bridge could have a constantly screaming crowd like this one everywhere they wenttt. And shit do I miss this! I am soo glad they were the last band I got to see before COVID-19
I need a tour with Alter Bridge and Avenged Sevenfold. Talk about a couple bands that beautifully compose rock n metal for a great show. I would love to see Synyster Gates and Tremonti join on stage for a guitar battle!
Usually it's one of two reasons: 1) Many times in the studio a guitar player records his/her guitar parts and vocals separately and some parts are just too much to play together live. OR 2) The vocals are slightly out of the singer's range. They're able to slide the notes in the studio where they can rest their voice the next day if needed but the notes are too much to hit night after night.
Myles is an incredible guitarist. Slash even said that Myles is more technically proficient than himself. "Myles teaches me stuff. Technically he's much more proficient than I am. He knows way more about all that stuff. There's been a few times where he's shown me licks, runs, arpeggios or scales and I'm like, 'What was that?'” Can you believe being told that by SLASH??
Wicked toungues can speak and re-write history, but you cant keep the truth contained. Like the song was sung... realize were one ...and don't forget were here to stayyyy!
These guys have been my favorite band of all time since their first record in 2004. However a little part of me wishes they sounded a little more like the studio recording when playing live.
I love the band...not sure why they have to keep their slave 5 pointed star symbols in the background? As I am still watching I am waiting for the checkerboard.
