They were insane at the show in West Palm Beach last night. Super fucking nice guys too. I can only hope the American public can learn to appreciate their style. Or at least that they make a tour with bands that are not so completely different.
it's because for 1 they're playing in a smaller room so the sound doesn't travel. 2 the music is alwasy revamped a bit making it louder and making the singers voice sound a bit louder and much better then this
Dragonforce is such a good band, and finally it seems they're beginning to get serious about their live performance. This is the best performance of TTFAF I've seen so far. And doing the intro on acoustic makes it even better! Maybe now they can finally record a live DVD?
3 stages, at mine the two smaller stages were next to each other and had like 10 different bands between the two so you just walked back and forth between the two while one set up for the next band. Then at like 5:30 or something the main stage started with Mastodon with only a few more bands left on the other stages, and the last smaller stage performance ended around when DF started.
Well, it wasn't so much that they didn't want to put it in, they just never asked to be put in. Activision actually asked them for permission to add the songs in based on demand and request by players.
Yeah, my friend who went to the concert with me felt the same way you do lol...he liked them but didn't care too much for them since they appeared to not be able to pull it off live, but after the show I think he had changed his mind.
yea and i hate people who say they speed up their stuff cuz thats so ignorant. a few years from now and theyre gunna be even more amazing dforce is awesome
my friend saw them at the dodge music center in Hartford CT and they were amazing he said... i was stuck home because of my parents so i slept until 6 pm and went on the computer to take my mind off of it.
I am sick of people judging DF when watching concerts recorded by crapy cellphones, their live performance is getting better by the year.. This performance didn't suck at all!!
music is what they have in common :P Anyways, if they can do it once in a studio version, they should be able to do it live. Besides, "big love" (mentioned before) is seen as one of the ebst live performances, and the guitar gets pretty fast in that, if that counts.
i do love dragonforce, but i know that lots of times they cant play live. and ZP needs to work on his vocals live. but i love metallica too. i wanna see both of them live.
Rofl i just saw them tonight and the only thing they did different was they did that song at the end he did the whole fire and the WHAT thing and he did tht little pause right in the beginging when he says this is right now!! but im not gona lie it was the show tht made the night i woulde recomend everyone go see them live it was fucking amazing :D
Hahaha, i was thinking the same thing. Should have given their time to DF, they did a much better show and you can actually understand what the fuck they're singing about. ZP and all of DF did a great job considering the public they had. If the audience had been half as excited about them as they were for Disturbed and Slip, they would have destroyed that stage, no doubt about it.
@Ministands That's why Herman Li practices Mixed Martial Arts, and what does this have to do with their music at all? Last time I checked bands are more about music and less about whether or not they can kick some ones ass.
dragonforce is a good band. but if you want to talk about who plays live music just as good or better then studio recorded music, then you all should check out Kamelot. if not them then nightwish or luca turilli, rhapsody, hollenthorn, symphony x. i could go on and on and on
Watching them on UA-cam isn't actually seeing them live, why can't you people get this through your head? Judge them by an actual live concert not by some video on UA-cam.
quite simple really: they played it correctly ;)
I always knew someday they'd be able to play live. the days of 'studioforce' are well and truly over.
This one is a lot better than some of the other live performance videos I've seen on youtube, thanks for posting.
The pause is necessary seeing how they have to switch to their regular guitars from playing acoustic during the intro.
Dragonforce is soaring to the sky's with this performance.
omfg they've improved so much live this was seriously amazing!!!
Probably the best backing vocals in live performances i have ever heard
wow, I even heard the backing vocals and they were spot on. I'm so glad DragonForce is cleaning up live.
Thats awesome. I can't wait for August 8th anymore. So excited!!!
wow, they got really good live. the last video i saw of them playing live i couldn't even tell what song it was. good to see them improving so much
dragonforce is cleaning p their act, their live performances are DEFINATELY improving!
wow this is a lot better than a lot of their live videos....
They were insane at the show in West Palm Beach last night. Super fucking nice guys too. I can only hope the American public can learn to appreciate their style. Or at least that they make a tour with bands that are not so completely different.
really happy that there's not a lot of DF-haters who have bothered to comment on this video. Well Df rocks and... HAIL FINLAND!!
it's because for 1 they're playing in a smaller room so the sound doesn't travel. 2 the music is alwasy revamped a bit making it louder and making the singers voice sound a bit louder and much better then this
Performances of TTFATF I've seen both live and on video are varied in quality but this was spot on. Zip always impresses me live. 5 Star vocalist.
I don't know why everyone says they suck live, when I went to see them back in '09 they were amazing.
I think they're getting getting better at live.
The intro sounded awesome with the guitars. :)
dragonforce has dramatically improved in their live performances
nice, i saw this show in the performance at nissan pavilion in VA. i agree with two comments below me, they have gotten better in the past few years.
holy wow. im definitely going to see them this year when they come to milwaukee or chicago. they improved drastically.
Phew! Now we can all breath a litle easier. Dragonforce has earned your grudging respect!
Great performance. Especially the vocals.
everyone thats says they suck...need to watch this, it's by far fucking amazing
Love that song and absolutely love the band, and the solo to most Dream Theater songs are perfect.
wow, they improved a lot in their live performances.
Dragonforce is such a good band, and finally it seems they're beginning to get serious about their live performance. This is the best performance of TTFAF I've seen so far. And doing the intro on acoustic makes it even better! Maybe now they can finally record a live DVD?
They Improved! This video Was Worth Watching.
getting better.
Thanks! It's a digital camera, surprisingly.
i saw them at the shoreline for the very first time and it was awesome!:)
Finally there got it!!! they learned how to play live. DF rock
That was the best show i've been to! i wasnt much of a fan of Slipknot, but after their performance that night i would definately see them again.
theyre great the intro is now on guitar!
3 stages, at mine the two smaller stages were next to each other and had like 10 different bands between the two so you just walked back and forth between the two while one set up for the next band. Then at like 5:30 or something the main stage started with Mastodon with only a few more bands left on the other stages, and the last smaller stage performance ended around when DF started.
I was at this show. It was good. I really don't see why people still think this band sucks live.
They are amazing live, anyone who disagrees should watch a vid from them live in belfast, they were perfect there
Amazing!
DRAGONFORCE FTW!!!!!!!!!!
Well, it wasn't so much that they didn't want to put it in, they just never asked to be put in. Activision actually asked them for permission to add the songs in based on demand and request by players.

yea and i hate people who say they speed up their stuff cuz thats so ignorant. a few years from now and theyre gunna be even more amazing dforce is awesome
my friend saw them at the dodge music center in Hartford CT and they were amazing he said... i was stuck home because of my parents so i slept until 6 pm and went on the computer to take my mind off of it.
Dave is a beast. he has to have a lot of stamina to be able to play drums that fast for that long.
woooooooooow that was really clean. i guess those hate comments on youtube have made their work! that was awesome!
cuz Vadim and the rest of dragonforce is just plain amazing
DragonForce is awesome live.
so what though, they got noticed to be talented enough to get a spot on one of THE most popular games in the world is what matters.
the drummer is the most underrated!!
that drummer is the highlight of this band
they FUCKING ROCK!
Dragonforce are (Extreme) Power Metal, but they did get 2nd place for best Battle Metal album with Sonic Firestorm in 20 years by Metal Hammer.
It took time, but goddamn they improved their live performances
No problem!
Acoustic intro!
they are fukin amazing
Agreed the song is awsome
man the pianist is my favorite
he's so crazy XD
well, he was in Toronto
Yeah man, the show was overall amazing. Disturbed/Slipknot rocked the house!
that was nice! i want a live DVD ^^
I am sick of people judging DF when watching concerts recorded by crapy cellphones, their live performance is getting better by the year..
This performance didn't suck at all!!
Ya, they definitely had me in a state of ecstasy.
Yo, they acutally did GOOD.
And their new album is way better than their previous ones.
music is what they have in common :P Anyways, if they can do it once in a studio version, they should be able to do it live. Besides, "big love" (mentioned before) is seen as one of the ebst live performances, and the guitar gets pretty fast in that, if that counts.
Thats was meant to be a reply to another comment by ItsGojira3.
they've gotten a lot better live
They've always been insanely good...
the reason i didnt mention sam before was because
i do love dragonforce, but i know that lots of times they cant play live. and ZP needs to work on his vocals live. but i love metallica too. i wanna see both of them live.
I was there!!!!!!
I was watching in the lawn but went back to the front after df.
=]
Check their timetable of concerts, OMG, there's like back to back concerts like I've never seen... :O
that acoustic intro was fucking electric!!
I don't think they will ever live up the expectations of their studio songs, as I don't think they can. They have a kick-ass drummer though
The drummer is awesome
3 MORE EFFING DAYS!!!
Rofl i just saw them tonight and the only thing they did different was they did that song at the end he did the whole fire and the WHAT thing and he did tht little pause right in the beginging when he says this is right now!! but im not gona lie it was the show tht made the night i woulde recomend everyone go see them live it was fucking amazing :D
whoa ive never seen herman play the intro on an acoustic, usually the keyboard has the intro, i like herman playing it better
Exactly~
WTF? These guys sound pretty fuckin good live to me!!! Now that there's actually footage with at least "moderate" audio quality.
Hahaha, i was thinking the same thing. Should have given their time to DF, they did a much better show and you can actually understand what the fuck they're singing about.
ZP and all of DF did a great job considering the public they had.
If the audience had been half as excited about them as they were for Disturbed and Slip, they would have destroyed that stage, no doubt about it.
Their new album fuckin rules
It sure was :)
this sounded SO MUCH better than at graspop.
HOH shit Herman Playz Acoustic Opening Live! thaz juz kickass.
Wish i was there
they improved a lot :O
I love how ZP distracted the audience so Herman and Sam could switch to electric XD had to be some way
@Ministands That's why Herman Li practices Mixed Martial Arts, and what does this have to do with their music at all? Last time I checked bands are more about music and less about whether or not they can kick some ones ass.
The vocals kind of drown out the guitars during the first half but the solo was really good. LOL at Sam's antics at 5:40.
they got alot better live finally
if it wasent for guitar hero this band wouldnt be half as big as they are today!
wtf he played the intro
ok i kinda respect him now
yes like all my friends
dragonforce is a good band. but if you want to talk about who plays live music just as good or better then studio recorded music, then you all should check out Kamelot. if not them then nightwish or luca turilli, rhapsody, hollenthorn, symphony x. i could go on and on and on
they played fury of the storm for the first song at seattle
ROCK ONNN
great improvement, maybe DF are going upwards for now ? :)
I WAS THERE!!!
Watching them on UA-cam isn't actually seeing them live, why can't you people get this through your head? Judge them by an actual live concert not by some video on UA-cam.
This band DragonForce is listed under speed metal
they shoudl re-record the song but with screaming! THAT WOULD BE AWSEM!
