This show was spring 2003. I was there (I was 19, I'm the guy with the horrible looking floppy hair in the yellow shirt rocking the fuck out at 4:40. I was cutting my own hair at the time ... maybe that's why girls didn't like me ... all the emo music I was listening to back then had convinced me otherwise, ha. Anyway ...). The Assistant opened and Penfold played two sets. A month or so before this was that Great White/club fire in Rhode Island where 100-or-so people died. Fire marshals were on high alert. Of course a few hundred people showed up for the show, a marshal showed up, the room's legal capacity was around 100 (which was interesting because the room was less than half full with 100 people), and Penfold decided to split the night into two sets. I was able to get into the first set and "sneak into" the second set. The band cried a lot, there were a lot of speeches (especially during the first set, ha, I think they really burned themselves out during the first set, there's audio of it on YT), and they completely killed it. One of the best nights of my life!

Apparently we are mostly all on the same page here, even all these years later. This was truly something special, it may be the context, the chemistry of the performance, the content of the song, or realistically a combination of all three of those things. The result is one of the (if not the) best performances I have seen, one where even just the video of it 15 years later can resonate with and move hundreds of different people in the same way. Especially if loneliness is what brought you here, or longing for something that is long gone, the same thing brought us all here together to experience an extremely emotional farewell from an obscure band. That's something I don't want to take for granted anymore.
I love this performance so much. Everyone singing along, the crowd bursting into chaos during the climax, screaming the lyrics, hugging each other and just enjoying the show. Not only that, but the band did a really good job for a live show. Literally sounds exactly like the album. And not even being bothered by bursting crowd. Truly an unforgettable show for anyone that went.
From time to time I come back here, to this very song and for some reason everytime I cry over this awesome performance. The vocals, guitars, everything just make me feel somewhere else, really really brings up every sadness I hide everyday and I feel like someone understand me. I feel like this song welcomes me and tells me that everything will be fine and that I am not alone with these feelings. Im 17, Im living my own teenage years, and this song speaks to my like speaked and will speak with every emo generation, and this is awesome. Penfold should be bigger at their time, or at least, should be remembered forever!! Edit: Almost 20 yo now One year ago someone I really loved died and this just... Changed every line of this song for me and I couldn't thank Penfold enough, I felt listen, like there was something that freed this feeling from inside of me and allow me to cry, allowed me to feel and allowed me to move on Honestly, this song will follow my entire life
I'm 17 too and I'm happy with you being here just a few days ago, I really love this piece although I'd like it to just stay in our memories as an elite song, this is not for everyone ★ have a good life mate :)
I've listened to Mineral, Texas is the Reason, Sunny Day Real Estate, Get Up Kids, any other major late 90's "emo" band; I've not listened to anything that has surpassed this. A song has never brought me to tears before, especially towards the ending when the crowd goes crazy. I got chills.
34 now and the last minute still gets me everytime a decade later. One of my biggest regrets will always be not getting to see bands I discovered in my 20s live because it was too late. Still go to as many shows as I can so if younger people ever ask me I can say "yeah I was there and it was just as awesome as you think it'd be"
So much emotion in the crowd, in the music... and the band dosn't even care... they just go along with it, rejoicing with the people... they had such a strong fanbase, loyal fans. Im glad they didn't get super popular. it ruins things.
This makes me sad about not having been a teenager during the late 90s/early 00s. I was just a little kid then. To think of all the amazing shows I missed out because of this... After the mid to late 00s the youth changed forever. Social media and smartphones just completely changed everything. The kind of youth you see in this video is gone and will never be back.
@@Frobbl I'm sad that you feel that way. I'll always have my youth, regardless of age. The memories, the friendships, the music, and the experiences will always live on in my mind and in my heart.
In the future people will look back to now, 2022, and say the same exact things. Shows and scenes like this still exist. Different bands & evolved sounds, but still similar feelings.
@@ilyfrankh I'm aware of that but the 90s and early 2000s still had one certain thing about them that is gone and will never be back or comparable in any way ever again: It was the last couple years before everyone started using the internet and social media. It was the last decade before smartphones. Smartphones, internet and social media changed the society forever and shifted the general atmosphere into something completely different. Internet becoming a mainstream thing was an absolute major change that you can't compare to the usual "it was different back then"-thing. The internet was a whole different level of change for our society. EVERYTHING changed in such a massive way within just one decade. To name just one of very very many changes: Personal meetups to keep up "contact" to each other suddenly became futile after they were 100% neccessary for human interaction for tens of thousands of years. The change was unreal.
Painted skies and shining stars remind us of the hours we spent at the Dining room table drawing pictures of nothing important And everything we loved And even though our fingers got sore and our eyes began to ache We would never stop We would never stop It's these things created by tiny hands That were hung on walls and wrapped as gifts Acted as the words we never said But wish we had before you left It's too late to tell you that I care And I'm wishing you were here And I think it would be better if you had never left at all This place is not the same without the smile on your face And if you were here, then I would take you everywhere
i really really wish i could see this band live, growing up since 2003 i remember getting a burned copy of this CD from some emo kid (assuming emo because he was dressed in all black) at a laundromat this and a few other burned CDS i traded him for for some AA batteries from my gameboy for his walkman, honestly since then this music till this day shaped me into the person and the tastes i have till this day, honestly still on my top 10 playlist!
I'm wondering about the guys in the crowd just as well. I wish there was anyone from the crowd in the comments of this video describing what it was like to be there.
I'm so jealous of everyone who got to experience that live
the ending was one of the best things ive ever seen in my life, and i've seen a lot
@@SapphireDreamssss that about sums it up.
What a performance. So intimate yet so epic..
I’m here. Still listening in 2024
Who's still listening in 2024? Check in , it's not too late, to let everyone know you're still right here. 😊

What was the name of the venue?

@@lawrencecocuzza I believe the M&M Hall.
first recording of a 90s emo band i’ve seen where it looks like the audience actually knows the band
Giving the mic for the audience to sing the last verse is legendary.
You know its good real emo when you cant not get a bit teary eyed.
im so happy that youtube exists...

Still one of the best live performance videos on youtube
The best emo song of all time. Chills man
Bro. It’s so beautiful like the band to the crowd.
I've listened to Mineral, Texas is the Reason, Sunny Day Real Estate, Get Up Kids, any other major late 90's "emo" band; I've not listened to anything that has surpassed this. A song has never brought me to tears before, especially towards the ending when the crowd goes crazy. I got chills.
The Gloria Record - Tired And Uninspired.
Pianos Become The Teeth - houses we die in
not a dry eye for days.
I respect your nostalgia, but this doesn't come close to sunny day, Texas is the reason, mineral, or elliot.
Macleod Drury Sundays by Joie de Vivre also a solid goosebumber
love knife
they’re all better bands overall, but this song is just unsurpassed. sadly nothing else Penfold ever made really came even close to this.
I was there and think about it regularly
время от времени возвращаюсь сюда и всегда трогает до слёз
пора снова вернуться
one of the best live performances of any song ever
любовь - это возвращаться сюда снова и снова
34 now and the last minute still gets me everytime a decade later. One of my biggest regrets will always be not getting to see bands I discovered in my 20s live because it was too late. Still go to as many shows as I can so if younger people ever ask me I can say "yeah I was there and it was just as awesome as you think it'd be"
Holy shit! This songs makes me feel 15 and 30 at the same time. Takes me everywhere. Thanks for the upload!
Might be the best live performance I've ever seen
I worked with Brian and Mike between '99 and '01 and visited their gigs around that time. Even have "Amateurs and Professionals" CDs! Good times! :D
Tim Rizvanov I am prepared to offer 1000 dollars for that cd
You can almost feel the music going through the crowd, or maybe i am just high, either way what an amazing song.
9 years later. you're not high brotherman. this is what music is about.
Absolutely beautiful song
OMG that last minute is bonkers. Chills for days.
This video brings me so much joy
I'm always coming back to it. It's to be cherished!
Best emo song of all time.
2019 still best live performance of a song I have ever seen
Christie front drives last show vid is pretty good
So much emotion in the crowd, in the music... and the band dosn't even care... they just go along with it, rejoicing with the people... they had such a strong fanbase, loyal fans. Im glad they didn't get super popular. it ruins things.
holy shit that ending was insane 🔥🔥
This looks funner than any concert nowadays
😂😂😂😂😂
You don't get out much do you?
Maybe 😄 , but I definitely love how close the band is and how it's not so crowded .
its definitely nice not seeing any phones in the crowd!
because this is a punk show, not a concert, and they still look and feel exactly like this

I'm willing to pay a hundred bucks to go to this show.
I'd pay more than Taylor Swift's resale prices
So jealous and happy for everyone who was here. I sadly can only dream about their reunion one day like it was with Mineral
I always get goose-bumps listening to this song. So amazing!
there aren't no shows like this nowdays...
10 years ago - and still true to this day

glad there’s footage of this
i cry everytime
Painted skies and shining stars remind us of the hours we spent at the
Dining room table drawing pictures of nothing important
And everything we loved
And even though our fingers got sore and our eyes began to ache
We would never stop
We would never stop
It's these things created by tiny hands
That were hung on walls and wrapped as gifts
Acted as the words we never said
But wish we had before you left
It's too late to tell you that I care
And I'm wishing you were here
And I think it would be better if you had never left at all
This place is not the same without the smile on your face
And if you were here, then I would take you everywhere
