- Rare old footage of At the Drive-In from their 1998 tour with Murder City Devils.
This show was held at Tempe Bowl, a now defunct bowling alley in Tempe, AZ. Such a cool place to see shows back in the day. This was probably my favorite time ever seeing ATDI. They had to cut their set short because Cedric was really sick, as you'll hear him mention a few times.
Sorry the footage is a little dark at times and the vocals aren't easy to hear in the heavier songs(the PA wasn't great, it was a bowling alley for Pete's sake lol).
Set List:
1) Alpha Centauri
2) Chanbara
3) Hulahoop Wounds
4) Lopsided
5) A Devil Among the Tailors
6) Initiation
7) Farenheit

Wow this is just as good as the classroom and bowling alley. Such a under rated band. This is absolutely a piece of history.
Watching this its kinda easy to see how they imploded. I saw them on the other side of the world in Australia like a year later with a crowd about 40x this size. Going from nothing to everything must be a massive head fuck. So glad i got to see them. And massive thanks to the filmer.
Jim Ward is the heart of ATDI, and their founder. Reunion without him makes no sense at all. That's why the band ended up like that.
Shit gets complicated, it's sort of liking see your best friend in a cute relationship with someone only to find out they hate and can't stand each other years later. You'd wonder how they ended up like that.
There is nothing complicated.Jim and Cedric made ATDI and Jim was a very important member of the band from the beginning until Relationship of Command as an author and in my opinion a much more important guitarist than Omar. At the concerts he often kept things from falling apart. I'm a guitarist and I know what I'm talking about. It's very hard to keep a band together when Omar is on drugs at 90% of time and completely out of tune and make demage and bad noise to rest of the band. Sound man often put Omar volume to zero- But Cedic fell in love with Omar. And in 2016, when the Reunion ATDI was announced, the afro twins told Jim that he would not participate as author in the new album because Ego maniac Omar used to work like that in the Mars Volta and that money should be taken while it is still possible - and Jim always had problems with such an approach and always said that as soon as money enters the band as the main reason, he leaves the band. And of course after such an O&C statement he left ATDI- BUT again a month before the tour!! NOT as Cedric lied - the day before the tour! (I heard all this in the only interview in which Jim talked about 2016.) So the last album sucks hard. No Jim's right punk hand, no his open chords.no Punk screams that were so important to ATDI-Everyone knows: Cut away, Cut away-it's Jim Ward .No Jim Word's song's.No Punk is simple.Only Omar's egomaniac trip in the studio and some of Cedic's good moments, but very rare. To me, In • ter a • li • a is by far the worst album from ATDI. And of course they fell apart, from the tour they took the money-(Ofcourse Omar and Cedric more then rest of the band?!) goal stretched out, just how? They should be ashamed. Jim Ward recorded two much better albums during that period. And he remained a good man - which is much more important. And Jim in everything, though without money in his pocket, remained fair and remained a man of his word.
@@vidukadavor nice word! I agree that Jim Ward are very important to this band. I hear a rumor that Jim & Cedric have a personal problem, is'nt right?
@@mnyfst i heard jim is a homophobe and thats why they dont talk anymore
@@vidukadavor I agree. I listened to a podcast for the new TMV album and Cedric and Omar literally rewrote the history of the first break up. Their new claim is that they wanted to take a break, but the other three didn’t so they left the band. Problem is Cedric said shortly after that they wanted to do better stuff and the other three were holding them back. They also immediately started touring with DeFacto then TMV without a single break between. Jim’s never talked shit and kept his explanations minimal.
I have been listening to ATDI since their first album... never saw this performances in video... although I knew about them. Its a privilege to see this now. You can obviously see they wanted to tale over the world... & they made it, that energy is what is missing in modern bands.
I couldn't agree more!
I really respect that Cedric was sick and still put so much energy into the performance because the whole group was more important than just one person.
Well said!
Sick of what
@@adamrivera1873 he had a sore throat, just a cold really, but he was feeling really poorly before the show. If you listen closely he mantuons it a few times.
The show must go on
Never seen Jim move around so much haha. Really great up close, high quality footage of one of my favorite bands ever. Thanks!
Haha I know, it's wild seeing Jim get so into it! I was just a teen at the time and I was so obsessed with these guys, I was so excited to be able to get so close to them. And now to have this footage up so close in such an intimate setting all these years later after they blew up is really fun.
Damn....Paul and Tony are LOCKED IN. They were so good.
These guys..... Are so damn raw and one of the best bands to come from America. GOOD GOD ROCK N ROLL
Cedric with short hair doesn't exist he can't hurt you, Cedric with short hair:
This was at the drive in. Pure raw
Like how they went from Alpha C straight into Chanbara
thank you for this gem 🙏
Awesome footage. I love their lives from this era
this is gold!
It must be damn near impossible to sound mix a bowling alley. Such a epic show of things to come.
i saw 'tempe bowl' in the title and assumed like a small stadium bowl, was impressed they booked that in 98. bowling alley was not on the radar
Thank you so much for this upload. Holy Shit amazing sound. Quality. JIM WARD.
You're welcome! thanks for the comment! Jim Ward, indeed! I think this may have been his most energetic performance ever lol
I was at this show and it blew my mind. Murder City Devils were also on the bill
Indeed!
tempe bowl was the best. can't believe i missed this show.
“If we put on a bad performance…”
> Puts on the most insane performance these people will ever see.
I really can’t wait to show my kids this. I really long for the days of those DIY bands, and I really wish I could have seen At the Drive-in live. I did get a chance to see ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead live which was a similar energy but man, this would have been incredible
This is the most low energy crowd I've ever seen...
funny how the only other band with such energy I can think of is The Mars Volta lmao
MARS VOLTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@@@@
Cedric with short hair is horrifying
Cedric with no fro looks like a dude who manages closing shifts at a small town Burger King
its something I never thought id see
My favorite band if you ask me and it was a LONG decision. I love a lot of bands, but these guys....
Nice.
👍
Fuck yeah!!
any chance to share the pre UA-cam files? i'm a ATDI bootleg collector, would be great to have this! Thank you for bring this !
I'll have to dig around for them and see if I can find them. If you don't hear back from me for a little while, just remind me and make sure I didn't forget lol
Hey I was here / there. :D
Nice! Only us real ones were there, so you're in good conpany! 😁 Did you see yourself in the footage at all??

El público parece un grupo de zombies sin emociones
It was 1998, no one knew what to think of them lol
Bola
Oleme la hola
I saw ATDI in 98 I recall when they signed to the Beastie Boys label people were saying they were gonna be the next Nirvana and bring far left leaning EMO to the mainstream and they broke up . And then we got garbage like The Used and My Chemical Romance .
calling My Chemical Romance garbage is very iffy but i can agree emo took a sharp turn for "teen girl endangeringly narcissistic" in the mid-2000s mainstream
