Lyrics:
Well it's 3pm, time to lug the gear
Gotta get it on the stage
My muscles flex, my fuckin' sweat will save the day
When I check the mic, I fuckin' check the mic
I fuckin' checka-checka one, two, three
I plug it in, I make it sound as good as can be
Cause the rockers rock, but the roadies roll
Gotta take mic because I take control
Gotta get that shit up on that fuckin' stage
Because the roadie knows what the roadie knows
And the roadie knows that he wears black clothes
And he hides off in the shadows of the stage
Because the roadie
Looks a thousand miles with his eyes
And when the crowd roars
Brings a tear drop to the roadie's eyes
Tears of pride
Because he brought you the show
But you will never know
He's changing the strings
While hiding in the wings
No matter how hard, the show must go on
Then a beautiful girl come to me
She say, "Hey can I sucka your dick?"
I say "Yes", I am in love
Then she quickly say "I sucked your dick
Now give me that backstage pass
I do not want you roadie, I want KG's chode"
I'm standing at the threshold of your dreams
Without me there'd be no sound from those amps
Without me there'd be no lights on the stage
But you don't applaud for me
No, I am the roadie!
Lonesome warrior searching for the soul
No, I am the roadie!
I make the rock go!
Roadie, roadie, roadie!
#TenaciousD #Roadie #RizeoftheFenix
I'm a roadie and this brings tears to my eyes. This is my life.
Dad?
But do you bring red and green lasers? Also hookers 😂
Tears of pride?
hey! what happened to you after nine years? tell us mate!
Rock on dude
I've seen them sing this to their roadies in concert. You've got to respect a band who respects their people.
I'm a local stage hand, They just did a show at my venue this week.. Genuinely Cool guys. JB chatted us up a little as the day went on and KG made a B-line for the dock and gave rounds of high fives to all the locals.. Freakin made our week...Made my year for sure. The One band I would drop everything and roadie for.
Lemme, We are the Roadcrew apparently head roadie bawled his eyes out first time he heard it
saw them live in Austria and still could swear they mentioned Roadie there too.
@@androogaltit's spelt LEMMY.
@@androogalt tears of pride, because he brought us the show?
This is lowkey an amazing show of appreciation for a highly overlooked role in every band.
....I'm just going to say it....there needs to be a "pick of destiny 2"....or, just another Tenacious D movie. The first one was so awesome. And, these guys are great.
make a bong of destiny please.
What would it be called, Tenacious D in the Strings of Destiny?
Justin Archibald it would be called "the bong of destiny"
Probably won't happen, POD did poorly at the box office.
+Tiger Eywa Aye, movies like PoD are kind of a niche thing. Us fans love them, but most of the Normies tend to spurn true greatness.
Theres a few songs giving props to roadies, my dad was a roadie for Ozzy, Kiss, Van Halen and so many more and he succumbed to cancer in 2014, but this song will ALWAYS be the one that brings me to tears. This song perfectly encompasses what it means to be a roadie. Rock on in the afterlife Da', rock on Tenacious D.
This deserves more likes
Wait your father was a roadie for Kiss and Ozzy.
@@arandomvacuum9721 he was. He was a legend. Talented guitar player himself but never made his own band
@@arandomvacuum9721 it means nothing cuz theyre all silhouettes, but the guy Randy is talking to at the 3:00 mark is my dad
ua-cam.com/video/vOAgS4pHoZw/v-deo.html
@@zakari7-one-1 I get that, but that is so awesome. I'm glad he left you such a cool thing to remember him by.
"I'm standing at the threshold of your dreams". Pretty intense stuff.
Could you please explain? I seriously dont get it.
@@karma6162 He (the roadie) is basically up front, as close as you can get, watching "them" (the band) fulfill their dreams (while he is just hiding in the shadows like a no one)
@@karma6162 i interpreted it as that the roadie was the barrier between the band and the fans and people use him to get to the band such as the girl sucking his cock
this is what got me listening to this song over and over again
Yeah all of their songs even if funny, have at least one powerful line
For over a decade i still comming back to this band. THey are the best band in the world.
The greatest band in the world, not just a tribute ;)
And you came again, in our ear-pussies
Oh really? And you're going to make me? I'm ten times the metal star satan was. And they couldn't even beat him in a rock off. They stand no chance.
This is true. But only 1 in 9 people have the power to pull of such a riff, and even then not all of those have that skill in their chord book.
Lord Jaraxxus METAL LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION!
In memory of the greatest Roadie who ever lived: Eddie Riggs.
He stills alive in the Metal Land.
Don't you mean Del Preston?
Or the d's actual roadie shan Cox but still Eddie riggs is the best fucking brutal legend
Don't you mean Sebastian?
Buddy Tab was great
But not a roadie, rather, a local.
I firmly believe Roadie is one of the best Rock tracks of the last decade. Hits just as hard as the first time I heard it.
When a parody band does the genre better than the "real" ones, you know this is the end of rock.
Its so relatable
Jack's my favourite
thats the most radest combination of colors lasers could ever be...
Nick Barney he sounds more like kenny powers
Thanks to the ROADIE
I liked this, but then I took that like away because it's at exactly 420 likes, and I feel like both Danny and the D would appreciate that.
im glad someone else appreciated that line
That line is so awkward on the tongue it's brilliant
His legend is brutal.
anxietydown not brutal, BRÜTAL
Do you wanna see NSP and Tenacious D
Cold HotPockets
Yes. Cover album PLS.
anxietydown XD thought that after i saw your profile picture, " GO ON! "
Germán Montero YES
"Of course. That's the most raddest combination that lasers could ever be."
Best line! Lmao. Underrated line
why is Jack Black an actor and not a fucking metal vocalist?? :D Fucking love that guy..
He is a metal vocalist
spencecity99
Hehe, well he should have become one sonner :p
Ahem.. sooner.. need coffee
jan christian Frodahl Tenacious D was formed 1994 so he's been a metal vocalist for at least 21 years :)
Antti Kahkonen
yes yes yes I knooow, I just didn`t remember that when wrote that post because I was so high.. :p
Did anyone else cry tears of pride to this song?
+MrKingOthman The roadie did
me
See what you did there ;)
Just one milky tear out my third eye
Those are only the best fucking tears a person can cry
“A good roadie knows his whole job is to make someone else look good, keep someone else safe, help someone else do what they were put here to do. A good roadie stays out of the spotlight. If he's doing his job right, you don't even know he's there. Once in a while he might step on stage just to fix a problem, to set something right. But then before you even realize he was there or what he did, he's gone.”- Eddie Riggs
One if the best quotes to ever come from a video game. No, a memory.
@@arandomvacuum9721 No a work of art.
Legendary game 🤘🏻
makes me want to play brutal legend SOOOOOOOOOO BAD O_O
i couldn't express how much i agreed with a like alone.
i know the feeling bro :P
A SEQUEL WOULD BE F***ING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as soon as i heard roadie i remembered brutal legend.... They should make brutal legend 2 with better gameplay and graphics and more of fuckin awesome music and of course be released for PC at the same time.
YES!!
The dudes that inspired me to get an acoustic guitar because they prove that even acoustic can be super hard...
Electric is way easier.
Such a classic story. I love it. Campfire material.
You do some gut busting solo now?
I keep coming back to this song because of how it transitions in it's tone. It starts as a tribute to a great roadie but turns into an emotional song about the pain the roadie feels.
I love that Val Kilmer is just sitting there in the green room after the show and he doesn't say a word!
Sarah Schuerhoff
lmao I just noticed him this is trippy ..
xD
fuckin great spot dude
Val Kilmer is in all Tenacious D videos, when not physically present they always sneak in a poster or one of his movies. He's in the Sasquatch suit, it's a running wheres Waldo Joke.
my buddy still doesnt think its him i told it is and that my buddy is nuts. i spotted that like a boss freakin jim morrison is my idol....my favorite band ever...even over the d ...i know i know...but they would understand.
Val is in the gotta be the best video as Jack's bf
Man I love Danny McBride!
Was that really him? awesome.
hey worrun
We re 2 here, i love the movies where he appears!
Why does he make like awesome tech engineers and shit I mean tropic thunder now this
Worrun: WHAT? That was McBride??? I knew that I knew WTF that guy was, but honestly......I thought FOR SURE it was John Krasinski. It REALLY looks like Krasinski, I swear!! Somebody did an awesome makeup job on McBride here!! Thanks for the info ~
A movie with Tenacious D and Danny McBride please! I would pay 100$ a movie ticket to see that synergy in acting...
This whole video/song is pure comedy genius. Only McBride can play such a lovable jealous deviant. Setting em up with the classic trim...this is gold man .
How bout a kickstarter campaign for a new Tenacious D movie ? So many fucking dumb campaing for video games and stupid things, these guys are geniuses of our time, if every rocker gave a few dollars we could see another masterpiece. These guys belong to the screen, their music is made for that and since the last movie did so badly at box office (which is a crime nobody was acounted for to this day) I think we should repay them a favor !!!
yes please.. id give most of my money
If you build it. They will donate.
+Matej Kramár to be fair, the film wasn't all the great even with the amazing soundtrack.
fn retrd stfd
can this PLEAAASE be a thing?? i will glady donate all i can to see the d back on the big screen!!
this really is a great song tho
A roadie Knows
Whats a roadie Knows
And a roadie knows
That he wears black clothes
Anyone lookin for the comment from the undercover video
Lit Costello it’s not there :/ it’s all a sham
Yea, if anybody finds it let us know. :)
Me
Dang it...I thought it was real.
Voxxy the Wikipedia edit wasn’t real. People added it later and cited the video.
I've build scenes for festivals for years now.... and this song always bring a tear of joy in the corner of my eye... a tear of pride ;)
you guys are the best ... thank you for everything, let's make the rock go !
Brutal Legend totally inspired this song.
Can you tell more, what was this legend about, Im very curious.
sfhdiosha Brutal Legend is a video game about a roadie(voiced by Jack Black) who dies and gets transported into the realm of METAL
The song is on the game's soundtrack. So is The Metal. Roadie is the song for the end credits.
Jellycakelap Don't know where you got that from but I'm afraid it's wrong. The only songs by Tenacious D in the game's soundtrack is The Metal and Master Exploder. The song playing during the end credits is Black Sabbath's Never Say Die.
Brutal Legend was released in 2009 and Rize of the Fenix wasn't released until 2012.
It inspired a game that came out 3 years before this song ever hit the internet? Wow, it was a major inspiration.
This is tenacious d at his best. Jack Sang beatifully
I love the way this song builds up on emotion and just explodes in the end. Kind of invokes a The Who songwriting approach. This a timeless, great song, not a joke.
If I listen to some specific days I empathise that much with the lonely soul of the roadie that a shear a tear I swear
6:27 Jack trying to burst out laughing.. lmao had to cut seen
love it
Just checked out some vids of the D from Rock Am Ring 2016. There is a short vid of them in a backstage interview, where Jack states "The clown will never where the crown." It is a reference to them not being taken seriously as musicians because of the comedy in their act. True, the industry is unable to give public recognition to a band sing about cocks, and fucking. But, this is what makes Tenacious D so popular. Everybody watching this knows that Jables, and Kyle are legendary! JB, has an incredible voice with the range of a synthesizer! I have a feeling, as they are getting older, that they would like to do a "serious" album. Jack did state during that interview they are going to do just that....a serious album. Sounds cool to me. \m/
Yeah man I’m with Tenacious D for life 🤟🏽🤘🏽
I hope by serious they don't mean the new album.
Tenacious D and Tech N9ne should do a song together, they both feel the same way.
@@Raymo2u That's real people act a different way with me
I feel that nobody wanna play with me
That's ill cuz they treat me like a stain on they clothes
The industry are my foes
They treat me like I got a Red Nose
@@swim_ad My Man 👊, that's exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote it. "The Needle" and "Who do I Catch Now" also show alot of what he deals with.
If you havent yet, listen to "See Me", "Now its On", "Riot Maker", "In My Head, "Paint a Dark Picture", "So Dope", "Loud", "In the Trunk", "Hope for a High Power", "What if it was me", "Demons", "Devil Boy", and "Like I Ain't"...are some of my Tech favorites.
"YAYS!"
YEAS
I love how ineffectively he attacked their green room.
he tooka piss in their juice doe.
Zoeybatterup152 doe
Showed that room.
Zoeybatterup152 coulda fooled me.. already looked like someone pissed in it
Brad Duvall rofl.
With the comedic lyrics aside, this song is proof positive that Tenacious D can write and compose great songs. I'm always amazed at how good their instrumental abilities really are.
Oil up
This song is just unbelievably beautiful. Thank you Tenacious D for what you're doing.
Thank you so much.
That's Tenacious D's biggest strength, in my opinion:
The image you get in your head from their music is *_exactly_* what they wanted you to visualize. Some of the shots from this video I *_swear_* were pulled directly out of my brain. They really "get" how the lyrics and notes are gonna come together in your mind and that's awesome.
i noticed that especially in the pick of destiny movie, like almost every song in that was visualized how i imagined, ESPECIALLY THE BEEZLEBOSS SONG, i had never seen the movie before when i heard the album and its as if i knew what everything looked like anyways
This song is addictive.
You can use that match trick
Val Kilmer just became a million times cooler then he already was.... ICEMAN!
slipHAZARD the guy was married to Joanna Whalley I was in love with her in willow he was the man
That harmony at the end always gives me goosebumps, all hail the D!!!
"...because the roadie knows what the roadie knows and the roadie knows that he wears black clothes and he hides of in the shadows of the stage..." I mean, that is just brilliant comedy, cool lyrics and performed as if it´s some biblical wisdom...cracks me up every time, the whole song is just pure brilliance and craftsmanship.
Did anybody notice val Kilmer in the background?
I totally did. I was looking through the comment to see if anyone else did lol
He's in the To Be the best video too he takes a bullet for Jack
No, he's dead. RIP
Is that Val Kilmer in the background at the end???
+Curtis Lyles He is in a few Tenacious D videos.
I taught tenacious d replied to this comment tf is happening
@@litcostello1223 yeah wtf..
@@litcostello1223 Same
Lit Costello I taught they did too
I wish Jack was real rock & roll now, eh
Best roadie ever!
*cough* Eddie Riggs *cough*
Need to replay Brutal Legend...now!
+skumbino This song feels like it's about Eddie Riggs
+skumbino What an epic game
So "FUCKING" true....bro!!!!
I fucking love that game.
It cool bro
This makes me want to leave my life behind and start touring
Yeah!! Me toooo !! F*cking awesome players!!
Makes me want to tear my journalism diploma and be a roadie
Idgaf
When Sebastian injects Heroin and the Song slows down holy shit that cinematographical genius
Honestly who wouldn't say YEAS to that woman?
IKR
+Nnamz Me, I just don't find her that attractive.
SirFilip I :o
SirFilip I D:
+Nnamz "YEAS" lmaoooo
watched this video what feels like 100 times and just now noticed the val kilmer cameo at the end, he did it for the D.
Love these guys!!!!!!!
/Hello! I’m Angie and I know is a lot to ask but could please check out my cover on my channel? My dream is to become a singer please help me to come true my dream, I’ll be Grateful/
***** piss off angie
***** only if you cover the entire Rize of the Fenix album
One does not simply place this only once
5:14 damn that voice
What voice
As a Roadie this song brought a tear to my eye.
Why?
@@reinerzufall3693 Because he brought you the show.....but you will never know.
69k likes!
No one like this fuckin video from here on out!
Why was this not in Brutal Legend?
Because it came out years after that game.
I'm sure this song was made as an honor for Br¸ütal Legend
damn i tought there was dirt on my screen but its just a weird letter U... :D
Unfortunately the game came out before Rize of the Fenix album.
Trusty Slav Patches omg riight
that is the most raddest combination that lasers can ever be....
"That's the most raddest combination that lasers can ever be..."
hahah the Scene with the match XD
I love the one and only Val Kilmer just chillin out at the end in the background. I love Tenacious D and the energy!. Rock on, keep having fun boys!
I just noticed that... on like the 100th time of watching... had to search the comments to see if was tripping or not 😀
Eddie Riggs theme song.
Danny McBride is the perfect roadie
damn...the chord progression...the effing lyrics...the feel...everything is so fucking beautiful
I wish they made a full album on the roadie
KENNY MOTHERFUCKIN POWERS!!!
Fuckin love tenacious d
Tenacious D behind the music coming sooon!
posers the music starts here: 2:43
real fans the music starts here: 0:00
Posers Of The posers Music Starts Here: 2:53
What about the gatekeepers?
what about keymasters?
yare yare
5:59 when you realize its Val Kilmer chilling behind
Sebastian is like a mixture between Vinnie Paul and Lemmy
Val Kilmer at 5:40 and 5:46? hahaha?
He is in other D videos as well...
I was just going to say Jim Morrison came back to see the D
Sounds like 'Turn the Page'
Between 5:44 and 5:46 . . .is that? Val kilmer? wtf
This is a super catchy song! It reminds me of something that Bob Sieger would write. Jack Black never ceases to amaze me with his talents in both his acting career (How can you not watch ‘Nacho Libre’ a hundred times!), and his talent as a guitarist. The fact that he’s got the cutest looks is like gravy to his other abilities. Keep going, Mr. Black!
It's funny. I hate nacho libre when it came out. But it honestly is one of his best movies and his best performance
We all know Roadies are the most underrated members of the show
The true road warriors
You can use that match trick anytime you want 😂
Easily one of the greatest rock songs ever. And in my profession applauds such as rare. Thank you D you
Is that Danny Mcbride??
Yep.
Sebastian is the baddest dude he was the guy from pineapple Express you know why his pits are shaved cuz it makes him aerodynamic when he fights
E pensar que os conheci no guitar hero 3 , minha infância foi incrível
His name is almost like mine, I just got a v instead of b.
Based off of lemmy
One of the best roadys.
Rock‘n Roll!
Best song from the whole album
Sebastian, like's a Lemmy
Rip lemmy
+Ashtyn Shupe Yeah T-T
I LOVE THIS FUCKING BAND.
THEY ARE THE BEST BAND EVER, PERIOD!
THIS IS PURE GENIUS
5:46 Val Kilmer?
Yup, they're good friends with him!
There was a jazz festival a few weeks ago at the school up the road from where I live. I kept ripping around the park and a few hours before the show I heard someone on the loud speaker going, “check-a-check-a-123.” So I yelled at the top of my lungs, “F#%K YEAH RODIES!.” Which was followed by gaels of hysterical laughter! I’m certain they were all fans of the D
Oh, A7X new drummer is the drummer for TD...coool
The best thing about this song is that it has genuinely GREAT melody and a good riff. Tenacious is awesome.
5:23 yeah thats exactly how you do it roflz! straight into the muscle 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
Im proud i have no clue how to do that shit, and he is probably too.
Dude wtf, that's THE FUCKING DANNY MCBRIDE playing as "The Roadie".This video just made my goddamn day. Amazing song and band, hope we get a 2nd chapter on Tenacious D movie cuz that shit was nuts.
in the video at 3:53 the big dude in a black rolled up tee with the slicked back hair and big beard and glasses in the center of the video is the man that this song was written about, sean is his name, and he didnt go all batshit crazy like mcbride but hes an awesome dude
iv worked for this guy before.... jack and his whole crew are awsome
Thanks dude for the info, im a massive D fan.
Thanks for sharing this. And the song is awesome, simply awesome.
Did I just realize after all these years that's fucking VAL KILMER in the back??
I literally don't get it. Who would listen Tenacious D and dislike it ?
Gods. Right??? My husband is one of those people who frankly, his life is missing pure laughter and joy for some of the things he doesnt consider to be funny.....it breaks my heart to see a human not have any clue how lame they are.🤷🏽♀️
5:45 Sebastion, the whale Washing dolphin!
Ooh, Brooks drumming for Tenacious D. Cool cool!
That was b'dass! They were like... electric dynamite!
Did no one else think about Eddie Riggs from Brütal Legend?
every time
no, literally no one thought of that, physically impossible
***** Oh, sod off
