For me this was one of the highlights of the festival. The whole band was on point but Justin’s voice was *chef’s kiss* and the atmosphere was amazing.
First saw these guys (well, some of them) supporting Deep Purple and Lynyrd Skynyrd many years ago at the NEC. They were incredible and no-one had ever heard of them back then. Great to see them still knocking them out and having fun.
I remember when I first heard this riff for the very first time on Radio ......When the band cuts in with that opening riff IT DID SOMETHING TO ME. ...Goosebumps. Hair stood up on my arms ..Omg......In Hard Rock that hadn't happened to me for decades ....Since the days of VH Running with the Devil & You Really Got Me,,,,Ain't Talkin' Bout Love. or stuff like Aerosmith's opening riff on No More, No More (which I recently cut my own version of last year.) Great to hear this track done live again....At the end Really NICE Tribute to the great EVH in the guitar solo there. We all miss ED so much God love him. I learned SO MUCH from his genius. As rock players I believe we ALL did.
@Walter Evans....exactly the way i feel! It's obvious you're a musician, as am i. The Darkness are the real thing! I would love to listen to you're version of No more No more! Aerosmith....have seen them 19 times
Love the THUNDERBIRD bass. ....Now that was PETE WAY (God rest his soul) He was an iconic bassist ...With UFO in their golden years with Michael Schenker.....Natural finish Gibson Thunderbird alongside Michaels matt White Gibson Flying V in 1978 On the incredible Strangers in the Night live album....Another huge influence....The good thing about The Darkness is they were influenced by all the BEST people. Thats why they kicked ass too. You can hear Queen there too, & of course Van Halen (As if anyone in Rock Wasn't influenced by them...lol)
Met Pete Way on a couple of occasions at a venue I worked at as a 19 year old. How he managed to perform a gig THAT intoxicated is beyond me, he was wild.
@@carlpoelstra1059 Yes. Pete was such a character .God rest his Soul ....Some people said he used to be so out of it on Cocaine they would worry about him. If you looked up the expression Rock 'n Roll Lifestyle up in a dictionary you would find a PICTURE of Pete there with his Gibson Thunderbird wearing one of his stylish waistcoats or outfits. R.I.P Pete. .
saw this live and all I got to say as someone who had only ever herd this song before his voice is so high pitched in real life I was like 😱 he has an almost womanly high voice it works amazing for this song but for a few other songs they did it didn’t
