Lol yeah such a big mistake that the album immediately after they dropped him won them a grammy. Stop acting like you know anything about their personal life, it's gross.
littlebug they’ve acknowledged publicly that it was a bad move, and changed the band forever. If you’re telling me a Grammy makes up for Jon Theodore not being your drummer anymore, I’d say watch this video again, and listen to their first two albums while you’re at it.
@@grimcreeper729 If Cedric and Omar saw your comment... they would probably laugh at it... Both members don't give a DAMN about a stupid grammy... Yeah it's nice to have one, but I'm sure they care waaaay more about the music and the chemistry of their members... Thomas Pridgen is a GIANT douche and had made a few passes on Cedrics wife, hence why they canned him... Jon left cause he got sick of Omar controlling everything.... Omar and Cedric have both stated that Jon was/is the true Mars Volta drummer and they feel stupid for letting him go. If Omar wasn't such a dictator then Jon would still be in the band.
Bedlam had it's moments but I stopped going to see them live and caring after Theodore got the boot. Prigden is the perfect example of how being a technical player doesnt make you a better drummer. Noctourniquet was a pretty dope album though. Bummed they stopped touring on it and broke up before coming to the US.
Except when they came with system of a down here in Houston iv seen them Everytime they've came since 07' and met him and chilled and bought merch and got autographs at a small small venue called Fitzgerald's in Houston and it was Travis Barker Cedric and Omar and I forgot the bassist but they're called antamasque and omg it was amazing iv been crushed up gates and been close but here he's like foot in front of you and Omar omg.. Had to get two tattoos as well. But I always find myself coming back to this video for years this and a video in a smaller club from the right side in front of Juan and ike are the two best live versions of take the veil🤙🤙🤙
Im sure this was the tour i had tickets to see them at in Manchester and they cancelled the gig "due to illness" about an hour before the doors were due to open. I was so fucking gutted 😢
@@heptonaut Awesome, I was at this show too. I was up at the back though in the raised area above the dancefloor. The LA2 gig was more memorable for me as I was so close to it and it was a smaller venue but this Ballroom show comes across amazingly on the video - I reckon they were able to take sound from the desk to get this good a live mix.
I think they did as poor of a job on their new album as possible so that people would reminisce on their old material and go boost their streaming numbers
@@gooseabuse It's been 20 years since Deloused, people change a lot in that time. And so do their tastes, influences and ambitions. You might not like their new stuff but saying it hurts their legacy is nonsense.
4:21 i have no words for this, simply amazing!
I was sixteen and I was there. Yeah.
I'm 30 and I envy you
What year was this in?
Wow....
@@amogussex9921 seems like 2004
What year?
I don't think I'll ever wrap my head around the robot talk drum beat.
Leaving Theodore aside was a biiiiiiig ass mistake, and they know it

@@grimcreeper729 100’s of talentless hacks have won Grammys therefore your argument is invalid dear
Has anyone noticed that TMV (minus their drummers except Deantoni Parks) were like the most formal looking punks ever?
Fitting
In high school, I saw TOOL 5 times, The Mars Volta twice. I went to a bunch of other dope shows. I feel blessed.
those 2 bands is all you need
@@blackskate_unltd95 absolute blasphemy.
Lucky bastard
Just curious, blasphemy to whom? @@brandonharris9160
Jon Theodore is a beast in this. Juan Alderete is such a badass too on the bass. My inspiration to play.
Best rock ensemble of post-modernism
Oh and of course RIP i-key
That Juan solo holy fuck. This is what kids are going to be studying 20 years from now just like we study Jaco today.
I would fucking cry if I saw this song performed live
Hope you got the chance
Love Juan's part in the middle of this! Got me craving a fretless bass again :)
Those sounds he gets from those pedals fuckin love it
I tore the frets out of my Precision Bass after I saw this video.
Jeez, The Volta have never failed to give me goosebumps, it's crazy
what a badass piece of history.
12:30 - 12:40, that moment when everyone knows to change and the drum fill kicks in. That shit is electric!
Those roll off harmonics. . . Uhhhm yes
Best Mars Volta Era ever!!!😢
The ending is glorious. Powerful
Nuclear

@@Yesbryn WOW you were at one of the most legendary Mars Volta gigs of all time. No joke, you were a part of history that night ! ✌️
thanx 4 upload.. classic shit!
I would eat these!

The new incarnation bares no resemblance to this, honestly just hurting their legacy but I guess it makes them some money in the short term
