Ahhh, I Was There, and might i say, that was one of the best acts at reading, just because of the love and this, friendship? that the crowd had with oneanother. great!
This song was actually written about a song they cam up with but forgot. All that they remembered was that it was the greatest song they had ever done.
I've been going to reading festival the past 3 years and this is still my favourite reading moment. This was amazing live, best crowd vibe ever, awesome song, great weather, it was incredible.
@kieranbhoy13 i remember that, i watched all the coverage bbc had a day after the festival, but they cut it out... shame, that made the set for me really :)
That's not what i've read. The story I've always had in mind is the one where Jack played KG "One" by Metallica saying it was "the best song in the world" and that they should write something similar. However, the song that they played on their (fateful) eponymous show many years ago and that would end up being polished and becoming "Tribute" as we know it contained a snippet of "Stairway to Heaven" right when the devil asked them to play the best song in the world. Coincidence? :)
I hope people realise that this song is pretty much about Stairway To Heaven. The chords are all the same, and that solo is Led Zeo inspired. Just saying, it's a hidden message ;)
TecknoViking604 - No, I couldn't find the full concert, just a few songs from it in good quality.. :-( But I don't stop searchin' it! MMEggman - It's my pleasure. :-)
So funny that the whole f****** crowd sings the whole song in the background ! :) here in norway this is known as one fine party tune, so i understand people going crazy! :D
@Scoff94 They do get credit, but not that much, as they are in fact just fill up material. I bet that you could place any other pretty good drummer or bassist on the stage and you wouldn't hear or see a difference. Sorry to say that man, but the 'band' evolves around Jack and Kyle.

You can see the guys are really enjoying themselves, and how much the crowd is into their song. Jack Black has teary eyes. Kyle can't stop smiling.

God, it sounds so good with the audience shouting along.
Said no one ever.
i love the the audience clapping and singing along
I think we have established that this is indeed fucking awesome
Dat look Jack and Kyle give each other at the end.
Fuck.
THIS IS THE BEST PERFORMANCE OF TRIBUTE THEY HAVE EVER DONE
Ahh times when Reading Festival was good. This was the second best year I've seen. Now they can't even sell out.
Honestly one of the best crowds I've ever seen - they were louder than the band at some points lol
This song was actually written about a song they cam up with but forgot. All that they remembered was that it was the greatest song they had ever done.
I remember this like yesterday!!

Glad they got a shot of Kones! Love that man!
Awesome, man I'm in that crowd somewhere :-D was an awesome vibe. Watching this took me back almost 3 years.

I love how at the end they stare into eachothers eyes as if to say...
"...We fuckin' rocked that dude."
And they would be right.
I'm not saying my friend forced me to listen to this... But my friend forced me to listen to this.
I was in the crowd for this and they were awesome! Watching this raises goose bumps remembering how much awesomesauce was involved here! :D
