If they left this script behind, did they just stand completely still for all gigs after that? “Where’s the stage script, Balthazar? Fuck, now we’re going to look stupid.”
nah. fr tho, resident stagemonkey here. i´ve loaded one of their shows. they use a classic set list with a set of numbered annotations after the trackname, possibly a cheatsheet for polyrythms.
This is asking Alexandria's routine for Alerion and the final episode. Look at their sets from about 2008/9 and it is identical with the speech and everything
This shit takes me right back. Every phrase just pure 2005 . When you were a local shit band with a massive fringe suddenly opening for an act you thought were giant. I don't care who you are, you were practicing your stage moves and everyone new what was going down when the zilbell got hit aha
AA supporting BMTH. It actually sounds like something Mustaine would write about what he's actually done. 'Today Lord David prayed the baby Jesus. His holy spirit spraying my soul like Ellefson spraying his monitor with his filthy baby batter over young girls'
I am all the way down in Tasmania, And If you ever come here, I will shout you Beers for 3 days! I dont mean to piss in your pocket mate, but I cannot drive my car without a Downbeat podcast. So bloody good.
_ON CEILING!_ 😂 wow, replete with crowd-reaction-dependent improv theatrics! Crap like this is why I'm extra grateful I was born a drummer. Although they'd probably rope me in making me do YMCA w my arms or whatever

Ha that’s crazy detailed. But respect to them for absolutely considering the performance part of their show. Maybe life would’ve been a little easier for them if they’d just memorized where to be and what to do without the script, but even still I’d give them major props over a band who puts no effort into performance.

I’m gonna guess this band was the classic Warped Tour Metalcore band with their guitars down to their knees, the members had huge egos, and told their producer they were gonna be the next big thing. Not hatin on em. Correct me if I’m wrong tho sir.
The only thing that needs to be corrected here is you thinking that this picture perfect description of 98% of the bands on that tour should even be considered "hating". They can all go get fucked with "what's not hate to them" if they don't like being reminded whatever nonsense they've agreed to animate. We need to stop using classy phrases to point foolishness.
I'd like to hear the thoughts of whoever wrote this when he sees Balthazar with a foot up on the monitor when that isn't in the script. DM me the name of this band so I can watch them perform back in the day with this in mind, please.
"Also, not to nitpick, but please try to remember the adjust-your-lip-mic move before the bridge breakdance solo after the 2nd costume change. It's technically part of the choreography, just saying."
Why would it be bully if you’ll name the band? I mean, who cares? They tried to make some structure in movement, some kind of scenario for show - nothing is wrong with that, if it’s help everyone to have fun
Lol I’m one sentence into the read through and I already know this is Asking Alexandria. Attack attack and of mice and men used to do this too and when we were little 16 year old scene kids we thought it was fucking cool. The first band I was in the vocalist/s insisted on us all choreographing our stage show for the 3 drunk old ladies at the bar show in Denver lol. The whole scene kid era of metal bands was a hell of a time. I saw a lot of really fucked up shit and my band wasn’t nearly important enough to register on the radars of some of the people we opened for. Shout out to jerry roushe for trying to sleep with our friend who was 14 lol. Wonder how that dude is doing these days.
Jerry retired from the industry. I think he got burned out and decided he'd had enough. I know for a fact that there was a whole new Glass Cloud album that was instrumentally written that never got finished because Jerry never tracked vocals for it, basically.
Dude, this is legendary. So many shows i've been to thinking..."this is ridiculous, is this a fucking Destiny's Child concert?" But wow, actual proof of a bunch of douche-bag bots that get together to sell a shitload of t-shirts. Go ahead and auction off that NFT bro...you can thank me later.
Severely underrated comment mate, this had me fucking buckled! Hope Craig did pap it off as an NFT make some p’s n just drop the band name randomly in the stream chat for the buzz

Plot twist it's Stray From The Path
I feel like the drummer would have felt very fortunate to be spared from this intensive choreographed display of stage dominating prowess
This would be more difficult than playing a song
Plot twist: It was Viatrophy's script all along. Craig playing the part of Balthazar.
Plot twist. It's Meshuggah
thats a lot of movement tho
nah. fr tho, resident stagemonkey here. i´ve loaded one of their shows. they use a classic set list with a set of numbered annotations after the trackname, possibly a cheatsheet for polyrythms.
I can’t imagine playing a show and actually being conscious of all this choreography. Impressive if they pulled this off.
PACKET OF CRRIIIIISSSSPPPPSSS is the best mosh pit opener I've ever heard
Chest pumping and tempo change clapping. The recipe for success not only onstage, but in life itself.
😅
This script has heavy Asking Alexandria vibes.
"A certain lead singer, for privacy's sake let's call him Danny W... No, that's too obvious. Let's say D. Worsnop..."
Bruh. Those were my exact thoughts during the first minute of describing.
This is asking Alexandria's routine for Alerion and the final episode. Look at their sets from about 2008/9 and it is identical with the speech and everything
I now need to find one of their shows and do a comparison
@@Tbass17 just search "asking Alexandria live 2008" you'll find it
this is very accurate
They've never had blasts, anything in 7/4 or harmonised guitar solos lmao
Ik it’s similar but the script said nothing about in place jogging and I’m sure that would have been emphasized if this was AA
Thank you!! This was much needed!! Had me crying !! For real crying🤣🤣😭😭
imagine the quads on Doug having to get up and down on the flight case a lot
why has no one come on here and claimed this piece of pure gold and said it was their band?! DONT YOU GUYS WANNA GET FAMOUS RIGHT NOW?!
Literally could have been any metalcore band on Sumarian or Rise at the time 😂 just to name a few.
I could see this being sirens and sailors, I loved that band, and their dance moves were tight af.
This is so specific that we can just verify who it is by live footage.
This shit takes me right back. Every phrase just pure 2005 . When you were a local shit band with a massive fringe suddenly opening for an act you thought were giant.

Love ya Craig! ❤️
that intro was fucking gold
Plot Twist: The drummer had his own 3 pages of choreography
Attack attack with that crab walk and jogging
Holy shit that intro was hilarious 😂 The genuine smile part had me laughing so hard.
“Depending on reaction” they knew that shits gonna be wack
When I saw suicide silence when Eddie just joined I saw their set list and he had choreographed notes on there 😅😅
_ON CEILING!_ 😂
wow, replete with crowd-reaction-dependent improv theatrics! Crap like this is why I'm extra grateful I was born a drummer. Although they'd probably rope me in making me do YMCA w my arms or whatever
So obviously The Chariot. ~s
😂
I'm thinking of 2 potential bands that both have the initials AA, I may be wrong though.
I was thinking that too.. attack attack or asking Alexandria .
But he never mentions keyboard .
Alien Antfarm
They don't have blastbeats

Sometimes I just whack a youtube vid on. But I watched, and i mean WATCHED, every single second of this
He takes one step to the left and then cha cha slides 🤣
It's a lot to remember!
This is definitely the best video on this shit show of a platform. Thank you great sir
the one dislike is definitely doug
This has added so much joy to my life. 😂

RIP Dave Effelsons bass parts on new Megaleg album...
I need to know so I can watch along with your description lol. Wouldn’t cause any hate might end up liking the music.
Bruh. "Packet. Of. Crisps!"
Damn I miss playing shows
The funniest shit happens during those times
"dug steps up for second solo - one foot on riser.
Keith kneels at dugs feet as dug helicopter slaps hid face with his flaccid hog, rest of band head bangs and claps seven times....." lol
doug*
OK. So who is now currently scouring old metal videos trying to match up the staging with a set?
I want to know the consequences if there was an error during choreography.
I feel like this could quite easily have been Caliban
why would a german speaking band write their choreographed stage moves in englisch? Or why do you think it is Caliban?
@@jenyahp2828 Viatrophy played shows with Caliban if memory serves me right, it could've been written by an English speaking management or stage production team 🤷🏻♂️
@@adammarshall7869 Then you know more then I do bro. I take my word back haha
Not really into Caliban but i knew that they are germans :D
Nah, he said they were a young band. Even back in '08 Caliban had been going a while (5th or 6th album I think) and would know better than this.
Based on the tours viatrophy was on and the timeline you’ve said, I’m pretty sure that was caliban haha.
It woulda been in German. So it can’t be them.
Caliban wast really young at that time
Fkn love caliban!
*puts down pen, throws away stage direction notes*
“Hahahaha yeah who would do this at all “
I’m gonna guess this band was the classic Warped Tour Metalcore band with their guitars down to their knees, the members had huge egos, and told their producer they were gonna be the next big thing.
Not hatin on em. Correct me if I’m wrong tho sir.

Guys, it's definitely Darkthrone.
It's Sunn O))) guys
😂😂
Capture the crown.
I'd like to hear the thoughts of whoever wrote this when he sees Balthazar with a foot up on the monitor when that isn't in the script.
DM me the name of this band so I can watch them perform back in the day with this in mind, please.
We only want to know the band so we can check the choreography against one of their shows 😂
The only upside to being a drummer: not being subjected to these absurd dance routines.
I reckon this was left after a gig at the face bar .my inital thought was malefice but they never played reading .
bro this is too true. i just gotta know what warped tour band this is. i have to.
"Also, not to nitpick, but please try to remember the adjust-your-lip-mic move before the bridge breakdance solo after the 2nd costume change. It's technically part of the choreography, just saying."
... stop complaining! This is exactly 💯 what you need in your life x
10:15 "Sue Tongs"
Unreal
5:12 "what the fuck happened, Doug?"
I don't know what to tell ya...
No one in the chat suggested Glarrison or any “Gl-esque” type name, maybe next time
Community engagement
I had a bad day today but not anymore .
How has no one mentioned the amazing thumbnail?
Sounds like asking Alexandria lol
I feel bad, though it's funny.
It was Bewitched all day.....
Video of unknown band to surface soon
Wait for it
ALESANA?!
4:13 hey! That’s my name!
I don't know why but I've got a feeling that this could be 'Nato' from darrn saarrf.
Christ, that’s a band I haven’t thought about in years 😂
did a particular member of this mentioned band go on to join a much bigger band at some point?
Sylosis
They got tabs also?
It definitely sounds like they are trying to steal moves from Suicide Silence. Who said band is, I have no idea.
Why would it be bully if you’ll name the band? I mean, who cares? They tried to make some structure in movement, some kind of scenario for show - nothing is wrong with that, if it’s help everyone to have fun
Pretty sure I’ve figured out who this is.
This video is golden
Who you thinking ?
spill the beans!!!!!
Who?
It’s a UK band as from what I know Viatrophy apart from India the never left the UK so you can guess from there.
Toured Europe many times!
I had no idea this was for the band members, when I read the title I thought it was for some external dancers
When did norm macdonald dye his hair?

It's got to be AA. I'd be genuinely shocked if it was not.
I was thinking the same
Blast beats and solos aren’t in any early AA songs that I’ve heard.
This has got Bury Tomorrow written all over it.
too early for em
@@oj2339 Not at all, it's definitely Bury Tomorrow as per their live video from 2008: ua-cam.com/video/1e8Sm1isQ-0/v-deo.html
@@oj2339 not too early at all.
@@myworldofzion78 yo jooookes I think I stand corrected
It's 'Definitely' not Bury Tomorrow.
Oh fuck! Hahaha!
Is this my old band? Sounds familiar, correct me if I'm wrong. But I slightly remember my old band members reading this out before ever show
A7X
I feel like there’s a decent chance that the drummers name is Matt…
lol its a sign of a true madman my bro\m/ haha but this story im cryin lol
Chelsea grin?
I quit bands over this shit. Fuck my last band released a 9 part behind the song video series. The song didn’t even have 1,000 views on UA-cam.
It's Bury Tomorrow
That makes a load of sense.
