I agree. But also they are probably used to it by now. Also it's Ariel's band. They are not famous and so they got paid and they are just doing their job. But if they step out of line, they out of the band.
So crazy cuz I grew up with Ariel and went to grade school with him. He was always such a nice, cool guy. I only found out he was doing music and was "famous" like a few months ago. Not many people know this but he's an incredible artist. He used to draw these incredible cartoons back in the day.
background to this: ariel pink was upset for a number of things, mainly how coachella was accommodating him and his entourage i think. he tried ending the set early but when he tried leaving off stage he was confronted and told he had to keep playing. His ex-gf, geneva jacuzzi, also berated him to continue. When he went back up to the stage he refused to sing any of the songs.
This audience is not aware of what they are listening too, they were just there. Ariel Pink did a great job - he hired an awesome band. They played the song great and did their part as they should have. I like this version of the song
i think it was cool to let the band get shine even if that wasnt the intention at least the rest of the band got to look like they wrote a song without the lead singer which is fortifying.
I thought it sounded cool. If anyone, it only made Ariel look bad. You could almost pass it off as "performance art" if Ariel wanted to lie and pretend it was purposeful.
I took a writing class with this cat once many years back and we have mutual creative acquaintances who in form or another have elevated from the masses. Good on him for doing his thing. Sorry the brutha had a bad day though.
they are amazing anyway!!! i've seen them in barcelona and they were incredible!! nightime... and everybody was into it, half of the pretty huge crowed knew the lyrics ... we were singing .. we had a great great time ... and so did they! thank you guys!!!
What a memory! I remember he was arguing with the sound guy from the beginning. He sang like one song then quit until the end. 2011 was also the peak Kanye performance as well as Caifanes from Mexico. What a great year!
annenyctheoriginal I think all the members other than the drummer still play with him though. Theyr'e all there for the KEXP session he did a couple months ago anyway.
You got that right! PERFECT opportunity....to sing Fright Night, whenever YOU want to...From: Ariel (Die hard fans should be thanking him for this!) lol.
I love this video. He is obviously high or exhausted. He is not even being egotistical. He's bobbing his head, trying. He just can't get past whatever is distressing. The band looks ridiculous only because its such an authentic human moment.
hey Ariel, if you're reading this, watching this makes me love you more. Only as a human though, because I'm married to my own funny Cancer guy. No one could compete with Geneva anyway. It's so obvious that she's the only one for you it practically leaks off of you in your interviews. I'm sure she feels the same, just too proud to admit it. It's sad though, sometimes love doesn't turn out the way you want it to. Me and Eric hate each other most of the time. We scream obscenities and threaten and belittle. I guess because we haven't been able to learn to love each other in a regular boring way. Anyway, thanks for reminding me why he's so special. Only love could tear you up like that. Neil Young thinks so too, hey!
'Pink’s draughtsman skills got him into Cal Arts, but he soon switched his focus to music. Fellow student and early Haunted Graffiti member Tim Koh recalls often seeing him at a record store he worked at in 1996: “He always wore these red clogs and a sweatshirt with no shirt underneath-he just looked like a weird guy.” -Andy Beta/Pitchfork
@TPsynth i saw them open for os mutantes last winter and they fucking killed it. his band is soollllllliiiiiiiiidddddddddddddd. i agree about the replication, but they still went hard. one of the best sets i've seen in years, honestly.
Not my cup of tea to be honest...but I'm happy to see that he's so successful and has such a loyal following. Weird for me to see that he's so "quirky" now because I remember him as being such a "normal" guy.
@1111dolldolldoll1111 Yeah, I'm aware that the name, Haunted Graffiti is his and he had it long before this current band, as well as getting more exposure. I found out about Ariel about 5 years ago and I admire his DIY home recording roots.
It's like in Guitar Hero when your controller battery dies
That is one of the funniest UA-cam comments I’ve ever read.
@@mushroomleg Exactly!
So creative!
Amazing comment
Underrated comment
His band is class man...to keep rocking on without him, without flashing dirty looks or awkward laughs; shows really good integrity on their part.
@Topher as was I - just excellent!
Or they are just used to his weirdness lol
Shut up
For real. Totally class "A" professionals.
Ariel Pink's music sounded better without him. Lol.
I agree. But also they are probably used to it by now. Also it's Ariel's band. They are not famous and so they got paid and they are just doing their job. But if they step out of line, they out of the band.
Ariel Pink has been soundtracking my life for quite a while now.
I'd refuse to sing too if I knew the festival was sponsored by five gum
ROTFLMFAO
What's wrong with five gum?
Lol I'd leave if bo one would be the sponsor, but five gum? Who cares really.
Yeah is there something I should know about five gum?
@@supergrog5653 Ariel didn't sing because he overdosed on five gum
Coachella SUCKS this year
why does my peepee come out yellow?
Master Queef tf
Annabelle rocks normie
Well, it's gonna suck in 2020
why does it hurt when I pee
He decided to experience the show from a fan's perspective just for one song.
he was being jerk because he didn't like the accomodation (true story)
@@dreamshore_music I also thought maybe he was in a k-hole.
@@praszuyeah my first idea is that he’s probably just fucked up lol
But this song doesn't even sound that bad without lyrics tbh
In his Ku klux glam album same song with out lyrics is closing credits
He did it on purpose to make an artistic point about stage fright
Facts
@@PoopyTapWater Stevie sings for the last minute of the song but it's totally different lyrics
it’s called good music.
it's the kareoke version man...chill 😂
😂😂😂
at least we got this awesome instrumental

Radical
whoops
@David Pinto you too
@David Pinto "jerk" is a massive understatement
wasn't he at calarts for visual art? not shocking but neat anyway. seems like an asshole though lol
Sometimes a dude just needs to jam.
...Instead of singing...
...a song that he wrote himself...
...as the singing part...
+Scott Hall HAHHAAAA!!!

XSeveredManX what a bitch
@@SethTheOrigin couldn't of said it better
woah he dated geneva jacuzzi
amountainmoved *what a baddass
How long did it last?
One of my favorites. Ariel is a genius man, modern Indie god.
Ps: Fuck I wanna go back to 2011. Such a great year.
YEAH MAN IT WAS
mfw: you realize you really really don't want to be at Coachella
^^
😅
he do be chillin tho
i feel like this video is the embodiment of my life
yes
pfft he's just a badass who doesn't care what people think.
i loved seeing him live.
This audience is not aware of what they are listening too, they were just there. Ariel Pink did a great job - he hired an awesome band. They played the song great and did their part as they should have. I like this version of the song
He should've done his part too
I like this version too ... it’s better when he isn’t in the band performance.
Lol this is his touring band, they’re always with him
@@xxSk8ing4christxx old band
He didn’t “hire” them, the bassist, keyboardist on the left, and drummer helped him write Before Today and Mature Themes.
i think it was cool to let the band get shine even if that wasnt the intention at least the rest of the band got to look like they wrote a song without the lead singer which is fortifying.
+Jacqua Cooper SHINE?! LOL, they looked like idiots! xD

this video is a weekly ritual
Lmao, at 0:08 thats the guy who models for Golf Wang and is in many of Tyler's videos.

Bruh i see tears under those sunglasses
I actually really like this version.
they are amazing anyway!!! i've seen them in barcelona and they were incredible!! nightime... and everybody was into it, half of the pretty huge crowed knew the lyrics ... we were singing .. we had a great great time ... and so did they! thank you guys!!!
pretty much the greatest thing ever
Instrumental version! Magnificooooo
Everytime im listening to this song now this video comes into my mind LOL
He didn’t refuse. He was giving his band the spotlight. A very good band.
What a memory! I remember he was arguing with the sound guy from the beginning. He sang like one song then quit until the end. 2011 was also the peak Kanye performance as well as Caifanes from Mexico. What a great year!
kinda cool watching the coachella vids and hearing instrumental versions of his songs lol
This is my favourite version of this song! :-)
damn the band is pro af
what a great backing band! love that they just carrried on. Clearly this was the end for the Haunted Graffiti part of Ariel Pink tho...
Yeah, he looked like he just started to not bother....
annenyctheoriginal
I think all the members other than the drummer still play with him though. Theyr'e all there for the KEXP session he did a couple months ago anyway.
Yea, now they have one more keyboardist and one more guitarist too
every time i see the 5 gum logo i think of this video now. thanks, advertising !
he needs a book about him. Such an interesting
dude
one karaoke vid, coming right up
You got that right! PERFECT opportunity....to sing Fright Night, whenever YOU want to...From: Ariel
(Die hard fans should be thanking him for this!) lol.
A great moment in rock
WE ARE LOVING THIS
I remember reading about this on Yahoo news. Smartest PR move ever really.
haha yeah Ariel is known for them 9 years later.
2:26 I would be like the one with red lenses
love this artist
i love ariel pink
i love this version
Chewin too much 5 gum
Andrew G delicioso
I love this video. He is obviously high or exhausted. He is not even being egotistical. He's bobbing his head, trying. He just can't get past whatever is distressing. The band looks ridiculous only because its such an authentic human moment.
This was hilarious to me until I found out he was actually crying
Really?
did he sing the following song?
Thats even more hilarious.
How do you know he was crying?
why was he crying?
Peaking*
It's so awesome how the band is completley unphased by his meltdown/anger/retardation.. Doing backups vocs and all haha.. Brilliant..
@@dr.faustus922you single handedly cured all handy capped ppl by defending them in this comment
the drum setup looks/sounds really fun
Soooo goood!!
Everyone learns in art school, it's not what you do, it's what you don't do. "Less is more" cliche. It works!
Love it!
I love him
lol i love this guy

Yeah, Ariel, keep yo head up Dog
saw him in a liquor store in silver lake, or was it echo park anyways go to weed shop buy snacks see him buying some drink, guy looked miserable.
Same !!!! Hahaha
ihatescreennames89 you are a sycophant
He is clearly a talented guy!

Love the instrumental 😅
The music is great this way.
lyrics:
Thank you
thank you so much algorithm!
2.22 I love you.
This is a good advertisement for 5 Gum
NEW TRUMPETS OF TIME 🎶
I think his shirt is the highlight of his performance.
3:27 L'estat
dam they played at cochella. i wish i would have been there to see it
When you're too busy chewing delicious 5 GUM
Ariel Pink is about as exciting to watch as his crowds/fans.
One of the Ramones was there and said it was the best performance he's ever seen
Thank you 5 Gum
Awkward! Love this version though.
Time to deliver a pizza ball
he's just enjoying r stevie moore's original version called "closing credits" more
+Valter Sydén actually moore's tracks is based on the instrumental from fright night after it was made, but this could as well be an homage to him
He anticipated 2020
More like 2021 . Dude got dropped
hahahaha totally
what's even funnier is how the band is totally unphased. "yeah, sometimes he forgets to sing, oh well" haha
lmao if i was around that crowd i'd do the same
3:13 lol
Probably listens to mumble trash rap. Generic Trash music in general
@TPsynth i saw them open for os mutantes last winter and they fucking killed it. his band is soollllllliiiiiiiiidddddddddddddd. i agree about the replication, but they still went hard. one of the best sets i've seen in years, honestly.
3:12 the guy with the white tee shirt
HAhhaha! I love how one guy flips them off !
Amazing! Whatever...dope instrumental version, plus...now I can sing it karaoke style in front of the mirror!
It sounds like Part Time Band
Not my cup of tea to be honest...but I'm happy to see that he's so successful and has such a loyal following. Weird for me to see that he's so "quirky" now because I remember him as being such a "normal" guy.
Drugs maybe
He's like the real life Casey from Tim and Eric
I knew he'd do something artistic but didn't think it would be music. Hats off to good old Ariel Rosenberg.
3:14 Coachella in a nutshell
@1111dolldolldoll1111 Yeah, I'm aware that the name, Haunted Graffiti is his and he had it long before this current band, as well as getting more exposure. I found out about Ariel about 5 years ago and I admire his DIY home recording roots.
it's never been straight out confirmed but apparently this was either because he saw his ex-girlfriend backstage or he was just super high
i listened to an interview ariel said something to do with the sound being messed up i think
i seriously cracked up when he just kept bobbing his head instead of starting to sing. he's fucking hilarious.
thank you 5 gum
gotta love his j-lo earrings tho
No one's a douche, everyone is just having a great time.
I was just going to say that!So true
@battleboy777 I like how he ended up doing this at Pitchfork.
@bigman1225 I know, at least performed Fright night first, but I was pissed.
Still sounds pretty good.
hipster?? my ass..
this is good music and I enjoy it!
What was the song played just before?
he found out he was playing at Coachella last minute
