I was amazed by that, too and I thought: "That singer is ambitious with what he asks of his public" and then the crowd seem to pull it off effortlessly. I only just heard my first Vulfpeck song, but is it save to say they attract a well-educated audience?
Hahahaha. My first high school band director looked like a drill sergeant. The second one was a former Marine. They both acted the part for marching band, but pit band? jazz band? totally chill.
Good falsetto technique is a lot more forgiving for me than singing a lot of higher notes in a normal register for me. Although I do have a really deep voice and it breaks into that falsetto barrier quite easily anyway. However he has obviously had so much damn practice and has even the hardest bits absolutely NAILED.
Later the crowd singing along with the Dean Town bassline gave me chills. This and "Cory Wong // Live in Mpls" two fantastic live concerts in 2019. It's great to be able to watch videos, but ohh to have been there in person...
This is how you breathe new life into that hit song that everyone has heard a million times for the big show. I'm straight watching this three times in a row.
It's more about capturing the moment and the art of it. You can't expect a professional multi-camera setup from these guys. That would be very un-Vulf of them.
@@RADSQUID123 oh, I agree. I know there were some people on Reddit complaining about the iPhone videography a while back though. I was sort of addressing that.
I'm welling up. This gives us hope. If independent music can not only fill a room that size unaided, but also coax out what must have been one of the biggest, most perfect three-part harmonies from the entire audience, and impart nothing but sheer euphoria in so many people - then the world is still a very bright and vibrant place to live. I hope they sell out the O2 Arena in the UK, next!
Their audiences are always packed with musicians! The crowd in the live video of them playing in Belgium nailed everything, from syncopated hand clap patterns, to adding harmonies the band didnt even cue up!
I think Theo is the only guitarist who I've heard harmonize his falsetto with the guitar solo. Such an awesome sound and a unique skill to have. Vulfpeck will forever be my favorite band.
David Gilmour sings the exact same line that he plays with the guitar, but that’s not really harmonizing, and that’s as close as I’ve seen to Theo. He really is awesome
I never thought I'd be headbanging to a clarinet trio, smiling from ear to ear and crying my eyeballs out because it's just so awesome. You helped me successfully battle depression once and for all after 20 exhausting years. Thank you for your music. Thank you so much.
Cory Wong got Theo to watch his "CORY WONG // EXTREME SMOOTH JAZZ MAKEOVER" video, Theo learned to scat along with his guitar like George Benson, and the rest is history. Even though he doesn't rock the white pants. m.ua-cam.com/video/VM088133bh4/v-deo.html
The way Theo powered through the technical errors during Christmas in LA was amazing. Great Show! (I was all the up on the right side need to get better tickets next time)
You guys have an impressive fan base. I can't believe the crowd harmonies worked out that well. Most audiences can't even hold down clapping on the 2 and the 4.
I remember how years ago I started listening to this esoteric, nerdi jewi, slim living room funk band, feeling all hipstershit. Now look at this, good father in the sky.
Watching this video is the first time I realized that People In The Real World know who Vulfpeck is. I thought this was a random UA-cam band that nobody actually knew about in real life...? My mind is blown.
An hour ago I had never heard of these blokes. No slight intended, I'm just mostly a metal and techno guy. Now I have to say that I hope I get to see them play one day, because their shows look off the hook!
THEO IS A NATIONAL TREASURE MAN. The man can not only sing WAY TOO DAMN GOOD FOR HIS OWN GOOD, but he had the whole of MSG harmonizing like a CHIOR OF ANGELS.
Joe is just so insanely talented. He shows off so well but when he's not supposed to be noticed, you don't even know he's there until you think "hey wheres joe" and remember he's just being a normal bass player.
I watch this video every few months....and it makes me cry. I cry tears of joy every time because of the INSANE talent on stage and the happiness of the crowd. I can't be the only one!!!! Hahahaha!
I wish this had Theo's hilarious introduction for their fictional up-and-coming a capella group Peckapella : "Thank you so much. First of all I just want to thank Vulfpeck for having us out tonight. Huge opportunity for us... We've been buildin' our UA-cam for the last couple years, and we're just thrilled to have this first opportunity to play live. couldn't be happier to have it at the the worlds greatest arena...". Also, Theo's vocals were unreal in this one. Sweet Jesus. #Peckapella4ever
Dude this was one of my favorite concerts of all time ever AND IM IN THIS VIDEO!! Best decision of my life to show up 7 hours before the show to be barricade :) thank you, Vulf.
What an absolutely badass performance. Not only did they play, and sell out MSG, but they completely OWNED that stage as they were born on it. Right on guys!
Most audiences can't even clap in time, but vulfpeck's got theirs singing three part harmonies
I was amazed by that, too and I thought: "That singer is ambitious with what he asks of his public" and then the crowd seem to pull it off effortlessly. I only just heard my first Vulfpeck song, but is it save to say they attract a well-educated audience?
But their audience clap in time, because of Joe's Woody Woodpecker moves that bends the laws of physics and speed of sound (true story).
They are good, its the same guys that go to snarky puppy shows, the clap odd time signatures effortlessly;)
Best audiences: Vulf, Snarky Puppy and Jacob Collier. They seem to attract musicians.
Águeda Pradera yeah, when I saw snarky puppy and Jacob Collier they got the crowd to pull off some tasty harmonies
Every member of Vulfpeck looks like a high school band director.
The accuracy hurts
Layne H they look like they get no respect in their schools but then
They play in the madison square garden
Migz that’s prob true that’s honestly how most musicians are
True
Hahahaha. My first high school band director looked like a drill sergeant. The second one was a former Marine. They both acted the part for marching band, but pit band? jazz band? totally chill.
Theo's falsetto is incredible. I don't know how he consistently does it without shredding his vocal chords.
Cromulent he's like Freddy Mercury, but overdosed on funk.
Amazing and spectacularly rare genes (luck) and then super technique on top of that (skill) :)
Good falsetto technique is a lot more forgiving for me than singing a lot of higher notes in a normal register for me. Although I do have a really deep voice and it breaks into that falsetto barrier quite easily anyway. However he has obviously had so much damn practice and has even the hardest bits absolutely NAILED.
Its head voice
@@mateuspadilha3329 yeah, falsetto.
Massive crowd harmonizing like an army of giddy angels... Gave me chills..
Yeah saaaaame
Look at this rush fan here
Same all day shed a happy tear amidst all the chaos going on in the world this felt good to hear
Sound Dynamite!!!
The crowd picked that 'G' out of thin air with no point of reference... Vulf fans are the best!
When? Im curious lol
They would've given them the note before they put all their instruments down bruh.
Edit: They actually did pull the note out of thin air.
@@diegosakk2934 literally the beginning of the song you hear the singer ask for a "G'
Wes Tolson Go watch the full video concert at about the 1.03 mark after jack's monologue... Out of thin air! So cool
Simon Harris Link?
Love how they projected the comfy coziness of the old band room on the stage...
why do they have the logo of Sandia Labs on the walls?
Jack mentioned at the show that it's actually the original furniture and decor from that old living room!
your name made me laugh through my nose
They specified positions with carpets, with the boundaries being the space you can dance around. brUh!
Hehe l was like nr. 1000
There's just something about seeing a big guy in a flatbrim hat and adidas track suit rocking out on the clarinet that puts a big smile on my face
I've been saying this for years now!
Oh my God I feel exactly the same! I loved that!
For real!
It's like a Russian Mobster in jazz band.
It might not be low volume, but it sure as hell is funky.
Low volume is a state of mind
haven't you learned yet low volume= f u n k
@@cik22 Wut... is this some new music meme or something?
OdaKa Watch "Cory Wong" on UA-cam. Then you'll get it
Well that is all they know.
I don't know why they bothered laying down all that carpet if they knew they were just going to tear it up
Madison Square Gardens is now an open-air stadium. Unscheduled roof demolition at its finest.
ah imagine having the whole f**** Madison Square Garden sing your song
Double it down, imagine your entire fan base being as musically literate as vulfpecks, the interaction is next level.
Not just singing it...but in a fucking 3 part harmony.....perfectly
@Michael Tee I can tell ya for sure that MSG did a great job with Dean Town.
I was thinking the same thing. It’s like how the fuck could you ever top that????
Imagine having the whole of fucking Madison Square Garden harmonizing with eachother and sounding good
Damn the crowd was sounding nice
Right?!?!
@@BrendanVlogs4You Right!!
Later the crowd singing along with the Dean Town bassline gave me chills. This and "Cory Wong // Live in Mpls" two fantastic live concerts in 2019. It's great to be able to watch videos, but ohh to have been there in person...
It’s cuz they’ve been taught by the best.
Everyone be in harmony tho
Just affirming that that this was probably THE show of the century
Slow your roll. We still got 80 years
It sure set the standard really high.
Got Madison Square Garden whole crowd to harmonize, wow!
I reckon if you buying tickets for Vulf at the garden, you prob know something about music...
Murray Tocker true
Tom Nelson 😭
By minute 3:00 most of the audience had lost their note, but that's not surprising and it's still an amazing feat.
This is how you breathe new life into that hit song that everyone has heard a million times for the big show. I'm straight watching this three times in a row.
Only three? Shame on you 😆
* Theo sings in a very high voice *
His voice is good, but his control over it is stellar.
*Very high voice intensifies*
Have you ever heard of Captain Hook he was a hound swede that liked to co-
Also just his voice is high
When Joe said "Are ya gonna be?" It made me wanna be.
Seven months have passed, and I now am. Thanks Vulf
underrated comment
If only I could like this comment a billion times more
time stamp please?
@@liamstraub3394 1:48 🕺
Their video quality only gets worse, yet better still as time goes on.
It's more about capturing the moment and the art of it. You can't expect a professional multi-camera setup from these guys. That would be very un-Vulf of them.
You guys might be more in agreement than you think. Read his comment again homie
@@RADSQUID123 oh, I agree. I know there were some people on Reddit complaining about the iPhone videography a while back though. I was sort of addressing that.
imagine how amazing the video quality would be for Sleepify
The audio is more important I guess haha
It's like the Jackson 5, a klezmer band and a barbershop get-up coming together to bring the Vulf into the soaring heights of legendary funk.
Vulfpeck: Do we need backing vocalists for the live shows?
Theo: Don't worry guys, I've got it covered...
When Theo goes from head voice to chest on "Tip toe" gives me chills everytime.
Thank you for pointing this out!! It gives me such pleasure & joy everytime. 🎶✨
2 and half minutes into Back Pocket and chill and he gives you this look 2:38
I think that's my favourite moment from the whole show.
I'm welling up. This gives us hope.

I hope they sell out the O2 Arena in the UK, next!
Beautifully stated!
people act like war and violence is human nature, but it’s not. this is
Having a clarinet trio in your band in 2020 is such a flex
Theo says "I lost my G" lmao and the crowd gave it to him. Vulf fans are amazing.
I feel bad for myself because I don't have perfect pitch
Yooo. I'm impressed at that crowd harmony lol. Wish I could've been at this show!
First try as well, just insane!
Their audiences are always packed with musicians! The crowd in the live video of them playing in Belgium nailed everything, from syncopated hand clap patterns, to adding harmonies the band didnt even cue up!
@@fromthistexasbreath Jeah that was crazy, they even sang along with Dean Town!
@@Melody7000 man, how could I forget!
@@fromthistexasbreath that's incredible.
Joe Dart on the Fender Microphone!
Joe Dart on the Joe Dart
i can't believe it's been somewhere around six years ago that i discovered the vulfpeck. time flies. never doubted you guys.
wow... yeah 5 years now for me... pretty crazy
Twas (accidently) at their first unofficial show. What a talented group of people.
fuck, I just found this gem recently
Omg the freak 5 years
Imagine being one of three clarinets ever to play msg
ok
Michael Winograd was it fun?
I think Theo is the only guitarist who I've heard harmonize his falsetto with the guitar solo. Such an awesome sound and a unique skill to have. Vulfpeck will forever be my favorite band.
David Gilmour sings the exact same line that he plays with the guitar, but that’s not really harmonizing, and that’s as close as I’ve seen to Theo. He really is awesome
Also H.E.R
Only person I've ever heard do it before is George Benson, and that was decades ago.
I never thought I'd be headbanging to a clarinet trio, smiling from ear to ear and crying my eyeballs out because it's just so awesome.
You helped me successfully battle depression once and for all after 20 exhausting years.
Thank you for your music.
Thank you so much.
The clarinet hits me every single time ❤
Omg I’m crying at the crowd hitting the 3 part perfectly
This looks like a movie shot that took 30 takes to get it right, so smooth.
I have literally only heard about this band RIGHT NOW, but this does like if Vulf had their own "Bohemian Rhapsody" Live Aid movie scene 👍
I was so blessed to be in the audience for this show. Vulfpeck, you make my life.
Damn I've never heard an audience harmonize like that.
The Player Formerly Known as Mousecop look up jacob collier audience harmonizing
0:07 .....Ok, Theo Mercury.
its such a Queen thing to do!
Ayooo
@@DrakeMartin ...and at double O seven: He's In Her Majesty's Secret Service! ;)
More like Prince Theo, to my ears...
Everyone’s gangster until the clarinet trio starts playing the breakdown
edit- why are you all liking this the joke’s not that good
Probably one of my all time favorite comments
@@thesilverfish5 i wish i were this easy to please.
@@anythinginvolvingsharks haha I don’t need much
I think this is like the most feel good outro of any song I've ever listened to, including the studio version. That key change is just so powerful.
Exactly
4:24 Choose your clarinet build: DPS, Support, Tank
That key change at 4:45 coming out of the clarinet solos gives me the chills everytime.
Theo on Helium must be so high only dogs can hear him.
Criminally underrated comment haha
3:50 That’s the best I’ve ever heard Theo on lead guitar. Legit!
Cory Wong got Theo to watch his "CORY WONG // EXTREME SMOOTH JAZZ MAKEOVER" video, Theo learned to scat along with his guitar like George Benson, and the rest is history. Even though he doesn't rock the white pants. m.ua-cam.com/video/VM088133bh4/v-deo.html

You guys have an impressive fan base. I can't believe the crowd harmonies worked out that well. Most audiences can't even hold down clapping on the 2 and the 4.
Amen to that ... Did you notice they didn't even practice it before he launched full on into the song, then they still nailed the harmonies. ♥️
Dec. 2: Loops this 4 year old song at work for hours
Dec. 3: OMFG
Wait?! What?! Back Pocket is 4 years old?
Also: What do your coworkers say about you bobbing your head at work all day?
@@aknopf8173 and is his neck sore? Especially bobbing like Dean Dart does

The rugs on the stage. So good
That unique moment when a crowd full of musicians listens with awe, respect and enthousiasm... THAT’s how good they are 😎
But why’s Theo got the guitar when it’s acapella?
EDIT: It just got funky, I understand now
Panda Eats Pizza it gets funkier.
I think his guitar playing improved, that was a solid solo.
@@CostSteam02 Gotta wait for the moment, though.
An hour ago I had never heard of these blokes. No slight intended, I'm just mostly a metal and techno guy.

They rule!

2:08 For a bit there I wondered why Theo was talking to monosodium glutamate.
Joe is just so insanely talented. He shows off so well but when he's not supposed to be noticed, you don't even know he's there until you think "hey wheres joe" and remember he's just being a normal bass player.
hot damn that was a smooth key change
Let’s be honest. It is one of the best live concert ever made in this place . These guys are beyond cool
This video is so underrated in terms of getting the audience to *sound like that* like they legit sound like a choir!
I would throw money at my screen for the full concert. Love this.
Good news, check the description
@@harryroe814 Sweet!!!!
i STILL can't get over how fun and infectious the vocal acrobatics are at 3:34 !!!
Joe Dart on the "Are you gonna be."
and on the Joe Dart bass.
at 3:45 the camera gimbal is all like: "I cant take it anymore, I gotta move!", and I was all "me too gimbal, me too."
Those clarinet solos are ridiculously good
Love it when Theo barely holds it together with the camera in his face.
3:10 on repeat for the rest of my life
fukk yesss
samee
Vulfpeck is just what the world needs
I was lucky enough to be there that night, and what a night it was.
The chord at 2:28 is just so magical...
Favorite bridge ever.
That bridge... it beautifully haunts me
I watch this video every few months....and it makes me cry. I cry tears of joy every time because of the INSANE talent on stage and the happiness of the crowd. I can't be the only one!!!! Hahahaha!
Doesn't make me cry actual tears, but it touches me that way and the sheer happiness i get from this is insane
what a fucking audiovisual masterpiece.
The only thing that would match this epicness would be a well-earned Tiny Desk Concert!!!
this could bring world peace.
쇼츠 보고 왔는데 그 후에도 개 지리네요
ㄹㅇ
there is definitelly gonna be a vulfpeck movie, remember my words
i still can't believe the audience managed to consistently maintain a 3 part harmony
This guy is the new Freddie Mercury. Legend !
I wish this had Theo's hilarious introduction for their fictional up-and-coming a capella group Peckapella : "Thank you so much. First of all I just want to thank Vulfpeck for having us out tonight. Huge opportunity for us...

Highest thing on earth:
3.- Mount Everest
2.- Snoop Dogg
1.- Theo's falsetto
I wish I was there, it must have been sickkk
I would've loved to be there
I love how you can hear theo smile when he sings
i love how some artists have the crowd sing part of the song and whatnot, but vulf is like heck nah, y'all are gonna sing a three part harmony, kay??
Damn, I'm so proud for them. Funk music is still alive and kicking.
When the live version is better than the recording......give them all the grammys please.....allllllllll of them.
4:55 that’s incredible. How can you possibly not love that?
it's the climax of the song, the Antwaun's "ohoh yeah" magnifies it. I adore this moment.
3:10 Antwaun on that funky ground
Every single member of Vulfpeck can frieakin get it
The carpet of funk compels you to groove
and that skipped step makes it even funkier
I cannot belive my ears the crowd singing harmony
The crowd's singing around 2:15 is soooo on point
What an absolutely badass performance. Not only did they play, and sell out MSG, but they completely OWNED that stage as they were born on it. Right on guys!
Please put MSG on Spotify!!!! Pretty please!!!!
A crowd with perfect pitch. Rare.
woahh, the talent density is too damn high
I would pay anything to see these guys live with special guest vocalist Mike Patton
Insane vocal performance from Theo
I love how only a few people are holding their phone! Most are there to enjoy the moment.
I'm always repeating 2:26 just for the "woo" , the best I've ever heard in my life,
So fuckin true
Whoooooo
That transition from a cappella to full band was so damn perfect.
I've been waiting for this video!!! I was there, amazing night.
My jealousy is uncontrollable
Me too and it was my first Vulfpeck show!!!!
There’s something so satisfying about singing putitinmapocketputitonmapocketinmybackpocketputitinmapocketinmypocketinmybackpocket uhohuhuh
