Gavin Harrison's drumming is pure perfection. Music hardly gets any better than this...
you're listening to the wrong sort of music then xD
@@rishicoco No he’s not. Gavin is one of the best drummers around.
@@apieceofdirt4681 yes ma mans...and so are you
Reminds me of Nick Mason, classy.
You're right, this is as tight as you can get and knowing this is a live performance with the highest quality that a studio version couldn't beat is just unbelievable. This is the best live performance of any band I've ever heard. Nothing comes close to this sound, talent, tightness, I could go on and on. LOVE IT!!!
The Earth has been around for 4.5 billion years, and here I am, coexisting with Porcupine Tree. Thank you mother, for the perfect timing!
Best comment I have ever read on utube, classic.
So true. Such a good perspective.
same feelings bro
agree , mums and dads did a great job.
and on the 8th day God created Porcupine Tree
Bringing Gavin Harrison into Porcupine Tree still remains the greatest decision in Progressive Rock history.
Hard to argue with that
Adding Steve Howe to YES in 1970 is right up there, ...but for this generation I agree.
Neil Peart joining Rush in 1974!
@@SonofHendrik good call!
And now Bruce Soord has his brilliance 🤘
This has to be the best song played live ever. And once you start it, you simply can’t stop it, you have to listen for the full 17+ minutes. Masterpiece.
Fato.
I'm actually kind of annoyed by this. I just want to listen to a part of the song for absolutely no reason at all and then I can't bring myself to not finish it. It's to good!
I hope El Estepario Siberiano covers this brilliant work on his channel. 👋
17 minutes? Still went too quickly
Congrats on listening to the FULL 17+ minutes. I could never manage such a feat.
This is among the best drum performances ever. Gavin Harrison is nothing short of a genius.
c p
deliverance....laughing at you on lamentations.
8:58 😩
This is seriously on par with the greatest prog bands. Rush, yes, dream theater, haken, king crimson...i hope they tour again!
PINK FLOYDDDDD
@@fadl2009gh yes for sure. The Wall is one of my favorites
@@fadl2009ghThat’s the first comparison that entered my mind too.
Just the best prog rock bands ever.
Tool
This is, without a doubt, the best song Porcupine Tree ever recorded. And that's saying a lot, considering everything they've written is gold. Welcome back, Porcupine Tree. We've missed you :)
.....And Arriving Somewhere but not hear......
Just bought the CD of that live gig..been watching it on a DVD for years. Now have the double CD, and the blue ray ❤🔥
I have to agree. I tried to get into their other stuff, but other than a few of their tracks (also performed at this show, like Way out of Here, Drown with Me, and the title track from this album), I just can't get into their lighter stuff. Which is apparently the majority of the Steven Wilson experience---this is apparently unusually heavy for his writing.
I'd say their best album is Sky Moves Sideways, even though I'm a huge Gavin Harrison fan.
The solo on Shesmovedon is beyond human understanding too…
52, not too late to discover an awesome band...
You're just slightly younger than Steven Wilson (founder/singer) who is 57!
Awesome, down we go the PT rabbithole
Luckier than you are, I've discovered them at 51...
69 here!
Me 71...
If it wasn't for the crowd cheers, you would've never known this was live. INCREDIBLE.
Exactly
Yea they are amazing , skilled musicians. I saw them play this masterpiece in Los Angeles yesterday.
I swear
Damn that's true. It's a fact
My thoughts exactly. They are thee best band to see LIVE!
Their drummer is absolutely amazing. Bravo.
Yes, Gavin is just other-worldly. I've seen it reported elsewhere that he's TOP FIVE in the world. Just a piece of art watching him work that entire set. Every one of those drums is just a musical 'note' to that genius.
One of the best, ever. I’m not even sure he’s human!!
Gavin and Danny Carey from Tool are the best drummers of all time and i will die on this hill.
@@nikke000 they are both amazing but no love for Neil Peart?
I love watching him close up, like in ua-cam.com/video/n7scYYsLdcM/v-deo.html He has so much control over his kit.
Richard Barbieri's contribution to the unique sonic spaces that define Porcupine Tree is under recognized.
Richard is irreplaceable. His musical sensibilities is about as unique as you could get.
I could not agree more, trully a fundamental piece for their sound and mystique
FWIW, have two of Richard's earlier solo works and have just ordered another one. Plan on the getting the 2021 release later this year. It is great, multi-purpose music, ambient and get things done or listen actively and follow along.
Black Dahlia off the The Incident, written by Richard, is a favourite.
@@Thewestslope definitely gonna check them out!
Amen. Love his sonic landscapes.
Still the best way to spend 17 minutes 31 seconds of your life
porcupine tree not are a spend of life 👌😌🖤
Could not agree more
ABSOLUTELY!!! HOW ABOUT 17 HOURS 31 MINUTES?? I'D DO THAT TOO!!
Steven Wilson = overthinks EVERYTHING. Just can't get into a vast majority of his stuff because it's ALL OVER THE PLACE. Unfortunate because he's a talented dude. Stop trying to be like Genesis/Dream Theater and perhaps create your own stuff. There's prog rock, then there's Steven Wilson who tries to incorporate every chord progression and instrument into every song. Just annoying.
@@jwc1977 uhhhhh...buddy that IS prog...
The best part about this recording will always be the camera cutting to Richard's reactions to Gavin's fills. I can't help but smile with him every time.
He does another around the 16:46 mark that I noticed along with all the others.
I notice it every time. The man appreciates Greatness!!! Gavin is without doubt The Best drummer I've ever seen/heard ♥
Gavin is probably the best there is. If Frank Zappa was alive he would be playing for his band.
I totally agree!
I gotta watch for that now!
When I want to experience something beautiful, I turn on this track. And I feel happy.
I'd argue that this is right up there as the best song of all time. It's sheer musical genius
the outro gives me chills
This is a masterpiece of the history of progrock
cant believe they will be playing this live again
Colin Edwin is not likely to be though, I wonder who’s gonna be on bass duties?
@@Eleventhearlofmars nick beggs probably. Wont be the same without colin and john wesley though
EXACTLY MY THOUGHT DUDE
Looking forward to Oct 2022
@@UTPAL1996 😢
@@UTPAL1996 maybe whoever plays the second guitar will play a decent solo at 4:09 this time
How beautiful Richard Barbieri is smiling all the time…
Fan of his since Japan. A massively underrated sonic musician.
I just discovered this amazing band and cannot believe how great their music is. I can't stop listening to them
How fortunate we are.....this performance is preserved and we can watch it whenever we want.
Amazing stuff.
They are all fantastic musicians but Gavin Harrison is definitely the glue that solidifies the music. He is the same with The Pineapple Thief.... absolutely stunning drummer.
I think i find my new idol after Portnoy, his precision and simplicity, maybe ill try to dig all of porcupine tree song sometime later.....
!!!!!!!! Нет слов.
I saw him playing with King Crimson 3 years ago and was impressed with his precision and technique.
Got to be outstanding to play in King Crimson...
@@ianmuir870 and still he is only one of three drummers there 😂 And then there is the stick-men 😂❤️ So glad I also got to see King Crimson and projects by several (former) members.
Also saw David Cross who was in KC at the start and he played Starless 3 times that night, one of which was the entire song backwards 😂 He was also joined by David Jackson (from VDGG) so I got to see him live as well though sadly not with VDGG - though I am glad I to have seen them as three man babd a couple of times as well.
More on topic: Hope to see Porcupine Tree again next year, been far too long...
Such a masterpiece. This has everything, melody, harmony, technical difficulty, subtlety, heart, emotion, groove etc etc.
You got it.....and tears...lol
And some Groovy lighting!
Totally agree !!
But does it have......yep....never mind...nothing to see here...🤣
This song is a journey. I think my favorite part is where the drummer hits the nastiest fill in the song and the keybordist looks and smiles. They all felt that!
Doctor: you have 17 minutes 31 seconds left to live
Me: *watches this video*
lol
si
😢

evet
Possibly one of the best Prog rock epics ever. Absulutely outstanding.
the band loses a lot on a vocalist who crows like a hen. The band would be better off without him, and even better if he was just instrumental
@@goldrecords8600 ok teach him to sing, we want to hear you
@@ignacioo8658 where are your golden records Mr. goldrecords?
This song literally changed my life.
🙌
This is seriously one of the best songs of all time. It’s that good. Has everything...
Of all time? LOL. Riiiiiiiiiiight.
@@jwc1977 well what's your argument I'm dying to know
I still prefer Sound of Muzak, but that's a close second from them.
Well, it's 3 songs in one so that's not surprising, lol
@@jwc1977 A piece of advice.. this song is for those who can listen to every detail.. it's not a casual song. Please try to listen open mindedly and with focus. I bet you will go in trans state. Thank me later.
holy crap , never fire the sound engineer who did his little magic on this recording ...
this might be the best sound i've ever heard in my 42 year of life , it sounds better then 99% of the entire sound library in the world ...
nice composition too , not as predictable as most songs ...
can't believe this is a life recording , great sound
This still remains the best song and best perfomance of a song after 15 years I've first heard it probably.
I’m 46 years old & have only just discovered Porcupine Tree. I feel cheated. Brilliant
U r not alone, I found PT on UA-cam in my late 50s. Would love to see them LIVE. Hopefully they'll tour the US in '22.
Same here. I just discovered them by chance a few days ago, and it's safe to say that I've been down the rabbit hole.
Don't feel bad, I'm 74 and just finding them and this album was like 14 yrs ago.
In my opinion this is the best performance of "Anesthetize" ever. I¨ve listened to it hundred times and I could do it hundred more. Perfection !!
Agreed. The sonic separation that you can discern every instrument yet it all blends beautifully. Nevermind the playing is insane by the band.
the band loses a lot on a vocalist who crows like a hen. The band would be better off without him, and even better if he was just instrumental
@@goldrecords8600LOL sure bud… maybe stick to Metallica
Agree
Big Rush fan here, thank you Alex Lifeson for intrducing Porcupine Tree in to my favorite bands ever!
Richard is having a good smile watching Gavin keep up on this 17 minute song... not missing a beat and attacking that kit.
They deserve more recognition they're a fantastic group :)
Your taste for music is fantastic as well! Anesthetize and Absolution from Muse
@@darlles OMG DUDE THOSE ARE MY 2 FAVORITE SONGS. WTFFFFFFFF
I don't want to count how many minutes i have spent listening to this masterpiece. And i would say it again, take a bow Gavin Harrison. 🙏
It‘s a duty to come here once in a while…such a masterpiece
In my opinion, the pinnacle of an extraordinary career. Perfection achieved.
Gavin Harrison is a legend.
I'm a bassist but watching him playing drums inspires me so much.
No missing notes no missing moves and he is always so creative.
God bless this man.
Now that I listened to this a thousand times: This must be - and I'm sure it is - one of the best songs in the world.
I saw Genesis perform Suppers Ready at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium in 1982. For 41 years that had been the pinnacle of my concert life. A close 2nd was ABW&H do Close to the Edge from 3rd row on a beautiful night at The Garden State Arts Center.
But they cannot compare to this song live. I am blessed.
9:51 This bass entry is my favorite part of the song. True masterpiece...
Oh yes!!! Totally agree!!!
Four geniuses on a band. Could not be different than perfection.
epic drumming, ok, epic song, great vocals, great solos, ok.
But I love the smiling bassist.
This song creates its own universe, self contained and ever expanding at the same time.
Porcupine Tree is one of those bands where almost every fan knows each band member's name for how important each and every one of them is. Everybody shines, everybody gets their chance.
A lot of people don't know Colin's name
@@MarceloKatayama true. Too bad he's no longer in PP.
@@jakubport7361 Yup. Very sad indeed. I'm going to miss him, even though Steven is a good bassist
This song is so close to perfection. IMO one of the best performances ever
This song + Arriving somewhere = Most peaceful 30 mins of my life.
Progressive rock on a superior way displayed by Porcupine Tree. Bravo!!!!!!!!
Never heard of this band until yesterday. Im a rush, tool, yes, old genesis fan, how did these guys fly under my radar for so long...?
I finally got to see this live for my birthday and I almost feel as though I was reborn with Gavin Harrison's drums as my heartbeat. Total life-changing experience.
Also PT did a much better version of Anesthetize on Closure/Continuation.
8:56 drum fill and instant reaction from Barbieri. Amaaaazing!!😂😎
I think he smiles because Harrison slightly fucks up, but recovers with a quick couple of taps on a cymbal. Even impeccable drummers can do it. And the drumming on this is incredible. Listen, I could be wrong, but it sounds to me like he loses the time with this fill. Everything else is phenomenal. Drummers! Help. I play guitar but I just know something doesn't sound right here.
@@youandwhosearmy6339 I listened to the part a couple of times more and the fill and the rest is perfect on time. The fill is so cool, that’s why Barbieri is smiling 😃
10:35 another crazy fill 😂😎
im a drummer. I think he is on time on that fill, but it was a close call. crazy.
@@youandwhosearmy6339 I understand what you are saying but if you notice gavin usually has a peculiar rolls and cymbal notes on unusual timings. So i think he did it on purpose.
You know when your good that you actually sound better live than on the actual album ... stunning band
I've just recently discovered PT and now I listen to this amazing music every time when I'm out walking for hours in the forest. It's so healing. Thank you so much for making the world a better place to live in. Greetings from Sweden
Awesome, listen to the sky moves sideways
Check out, Aphex Twin selected ambient Works volume 2
It is so fascinating watching them being totaly in the music. I love the bass player smiling all the time. This band is one of the best things ever happened in my life !!!
One of the most colorful, melodic, inspirational yet super-song-supporting, musical drummers of alltime man. Gavin Harrison is the full package
Gavin Harisson brings so much depth to this masterpiece ... a pure drumming perfection ...
Fear of a Blank Planet is one of the best albums ever made
I agree. It's like the 'Ok Computer' of the 00's! Perfection.
@@agemoth I gree x2
Album literally made my jaw drop. The talent these guys have are immeasurable.
I was lucky enough to have a friend who gave me this live DVD. I was hooked on PT after that. I also love the older stuff like Sky Moves Sideways. Steven is always doing something new with His 14 other bands, so I was glad to see that PT was touring again. Wow.
@@ScottyKirk1 FOURTEEN OTHERS?? Jawdrop!! 😲
one of the best drummers ever
Been my favourite for 15 years. No one else like him
Just saw PT live in Chile, they played this masterpiece, can't believe this song feels like 3 minutes in my mind
I saw them in Philly back in September. Truly amazing.
Saw them at Wembley & he said how good the crowd Chilli was🙌🏼!!
@@rocco036 Yes! we all lost hope that in any time PT will ever return to make some music, they are back!!
@@SolidMuldoon No words! A dream come true
@@pablo.flores13 dude that’s so awesome. Happy for you, Bro 👏✊🏻
"Fear Of A Blank Planet" is the best, most sophisticated and varied album that I ever heard. 👍
For those who miss Porcupine Tree , check out The Pineapple Thief (Gavin is the drummer ) , Blackfield ( Wilson's project ) and ofcourse Wilson's solo career .
Or they might CHECK OUT NEW PORCUPINE TREE RIGHT NOW
@@sandro765 unbelievable!
The transition of events after 6:52 and the boy in the front row vibing to that tune at 6:59.
One of the best songs ever !!
Steven Wilson + Colin Edwin + Gavin Harrison + Richard Barbieri + John Wesley = the one and only ultimate Porcupine Tree lineup
Don’t forget Chris Mailtland!
I agree, especially with John Wesley, his harmonics with Steven Wilson were always out of this world.
From the lyrics, all the instruments and vocals, from the first to the last second, this song is a complete masterpiece of progressive music
One of the must beautiful song on the world
I saw the " Fear of a Blank Planet" tour in Philadelphia at the Electric Factory during Summer, 2008.
Excellent concert!
Anethsitize was Brilliant- a show highlight!
wow.. this drummer is amazing.. i mean the whole band is amazing.. but my god.. the drumming.. phenomenal..
As a drummer myself, Gavin is one of the best in the world!!!
Gavin recently toured with King Crimson - Spectacular!!!! I saw them live!!!
My favorite song ever. I've even cried while listening to it, a true masterpiece of all times. Love this band!
I just did for the 20th time.
I started crying and then saw this comment. The song goes deep into the soul
16:27 fatal stroke :(
@@sankalpdevasthali1434 Because of who we are, we react.
the band loses a lot on a vocalist who crows like a hen. The band would be better off without him, and even better if he was just instrumental
Let's pour one out for John Wesley. His beautiful guitar work and sublime backup vocals do a lot more to this track than is commonly recognized 🍺
I grew up in the rust belt of the U.S. in the late 70' and early 80's and this song is a masterpiece of my experience at that time.
The term music 'artist' is based on Porcupine Tree!!
Keeping it together, no bum notes, dropping sticks etc, in a live performance can be difficult in a 3 - 4 minute song, but to play perfectly with no hiccups for 17 minutes, wow.
So focused.
"Thank you Tilburg!"
No.. thank YOU Steven Wilson! Thank you PORCUPINE TREE!!!
Caught them Friday night in Toronto.....blistering.....brilliant!
As a drummer, I feel compelled to say how great Gavin Harrison and his Sonor kit sound in this vid. Just beautiful.
This was the album that hooked me in forever. Lightbulb Sun set me up, which was my first introduction to the band.
PT at their absolute prime. Can’t wait for them to come back.
got tickets for PT, TOOL & The Pineapple Thief in 2021...this is going to be a great year
Afortunado
The section from 13:00 is just sublime - been burnt into my brain ever since I heard it about a decade back. Truly iconic. The different vocals actually mimic the motion of waves slowly crashing into one another. So immersive and profound.
It’s hypnotic, isn’t it?
Agreed. Did you ever hear the live version of Heartattack in a Layby? I was watching the DVD concert and enjoying the sounds. Then that song came on. I had never heard it before. I stopped and just sat mesmerized by the incredible simplicity and depth.
@@chetthehossYes. 14:02 magic
The little moment between Steve and Colin at 9:48 is one of my favorite parts of this whole performance
yeees.
Yea. Right before Steven told him to piss off 😅
@@mazrio128 Pretty much looked that way!
This performance..! And Richard Barbieri's soundscapes really elevate the composition
mr gavin harrison in his best shape and form!! wowww what a amazing and simply perfect interpretation
To know that maybe I will be able to see them live again is comforting
Another epic masterpiece by Porcupine Tree/Steve Wilson. One of my favorite song, what a performance, these band is incredible.
Gavin the drummer is a beast, with the finesse.
Its not even fair how freaking awesome this performance is.
I listened to/watched all the bands I loved very much live. After a while, I started not being able to discover new bands. I started listening to only the new albums of the bands I loved the most. During my university years, I used to wear headphones and think that I would continue like this until I died. But it turns out that our priorities are changing. When listening to a song or even an album, you need to spend time on it. Just because it's playing in the background while you're busy with something doesn't mean that you've listened to that song. At least for me, that's how it is. If possible, I need to close my eyes and focus only on what I hear. I think you should do the same.
This song is the first thing that comes to mind when I say ‘what should I listen to?’ and it's something that takes the necessity out of discovering new things. It's a 17-minute ‘thing’. And I love every second of it. I've listened to Steven Wilson live, but one of the things I said I would go to with my eyes open if I died would be not being able to listen to this song live. It probably won't happen, but maybe it will remain in my mind as a goal to hold on to to life. I felt like writing this, hoping that I'll edit it in the future. Those who share my feelings, if you see the edit note below, be happy with me, okay?
I know this isn't mine or many other people first time watching this. This is music, a group who can have their audience sit and listen to almost 18 minutes of a song multiple times, must be doing something right!
A true masterpiece and one of my favorite songs of all time! Gavin Harrison displays his great drumming skills
The ending section is one of the most beautiful pieces of music. The correlation between the lyrical content and the vocals overlapping in waves is so powerful. And I’m not even much of a lyrics guy.
Waited my whole life for music and a band like this to fill this enormous hole in my life and soul am sorry didnt hear of them sooner please come to sellersville theater
A TRUE MASTERPIECE. Will never stop enjoying this piece of art.
I seriously listen to this everyday.
Thank you Steve, your music help me cope with depression....
i get it!!! 🙏🏼😬 take care

So glad I was there, fantastic venue, fabulous band! One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen. Still gives me goose bumps.
I can only imagine what it would have been like to _be_ there.
