I rhink this....it was his mom who died. He has a pretty bad acar in his face. I think its a burn scar. Or at least....ir mafw this song. I watched their dynamic. They are feeling for him.
Laura knows it too -- when they both pause at 2:25 and she looks over to watch for him picking it back up -- then the knowing smile when they resume. Love this band so much.
This is my first time seeing this concert, but I've watched it three times in a row so far just reading the comments about the drummer. Do they ever end I'm getting hungry and my battery is low
Forgive me im tripping on acid, but August 10 just moved me to tears, man that was beautiful. Might just be the best player to touch a Stratocaster since Hendrix. What a beautiful Strat that is too, really a pleasure to see it played so well, they are one. Its so great how this 11 minutes 32 seconds of time and space is here, saved in eternity for us to enjoy, and still be hit by years later. those few minutes have me captivated, what a soul massage. Music is special 💚
The reason why everything is so perfectly synched is because the drummer is a high level telepath controlling the guitarist and bass player who are just vessels for his will.
I promise you guys, as both a guitarist and a drummer I can confirm that as impressive as this drummer is, the guitarist is something else. Literally improv soloing while playing rhythm all show when I saw them
Yeah, in August 10, with all the kudos to the drummer, the transitions between the two guitar lines seem so effortless here that in my awe I didn't even notice the lack of the back-up chords while the lead guitar is playing.
Legend has it that every year or so, Greenwich checks in with this drummer to check their accuracy. A few years ago their computers glitched for 1/1000th of a second. He called them the day afterwards and they promptly apologized and corrected the world's time.
Heard it last night coincidentally on some random IG clip. Since then that ‘August 10’ is on repeat. It’s like my brain melts and rebuilds in a different form each time I listen to it.
I played with this band at a club show back in like 2016, they were backstage arguing with the drummer because he wouldn't wear a wig. They had this vision for matching haircuts across all the members. It got really tense, but I guess the drummer didn't back down.
DJ would appreciate if instead of using the vague "from time to time" you would properly specify the time interval (I guess he prefers the value in ms)
@@Lemonickous They may have heard of him but most likely not read his books or not understand in the least what he was talking about. I can see professor Hawking bobbing his head to this band fore he was a groovy physicist.
Everything about the bass player blows my mind, from her look, to the skill, the look to the drummer to remain in sync and the smile when they nail it, wow.
The drummer is DJ Johnson, and in case you didn't already know this, time, as a fundamental operating law of the universe was created along with the entirety of existence itself, merely as a means to have something to explain his impeccable timing.
Making the divine and intricate look and sound so effortlessly beautiful. Also, the drummer's timing has perfectly synchronized my schedule and realigned my spine.
Don't you guys pass on the guitarist. He is godly fast, and on the pedal syncing it all. If you ever used to play, tried learning how to play guitar, or just looked into starting, you would know he is insanely good at it. Also cheers for swinging the tunes from West to middle-east just like that. That's very cool imho. Khruangbin is on a different level altogether!
The US Department of Defense has an atomic Master Clock to which they standardise and benchmark all time and frequency measurements used by the US military. Normally they keep him under high security at the U.S. Naval Observatory but sometimes they let him play with Khruangbin
I don't get why there are so many comments about this. I mean yeah, the drummer is very good at keeping the tempo, but at its core that's the primary function of drums. There are many bands which have very good drummers at keeping the tempo but you don't see the comments full of people acknowledging it.
dog what gem did i just stumble into. My life has been miserable for the longest time and now I magically find some of the best music ive ever heard? Omen of the future perhaps?
I legit thought that I was listening to some undiscovered Soul Funk Phenom from the early 70's when I first heard these guys. The drummer literally sent me back in time.

Since I’ve started listening to Khruangbin and this drummer I’ve never been late to anything
I travelled back to 1955 and saw this band. When I returned to 1985 the drummer was still in time
This drummer has never been in the wrong place at the wrong time
Not fashionably late, not fashionably early, not a minute man. This man is on time at all times
I died at this one ... lol.

dont forget your strawberries next time
Liquid or paper or gel tab?
Feel you bro everything is forgiven
No forgiveness needed, do you. I love this trio and they are on my shroom playlist, everytime.
The reason why everything is so perfectly synched is because the drummer is a high level telepath controlling the guitarist and bass player who are just vessels for his will.
That's why they have wigs to hide their telepathic receptors.
maaaaaan
people think you're joking but this is actually true
I had just been thinking, "This perfectly reflects the totality of my existence"--you nailed it perfectly.
yes. I approve
My guy on the drums is so in tune that every version of him in every multi-verse is doing the exact same thing at the exact same time...always.

They're all incredibly talented but that drummer is a GOD. They calibrate metronomes by him.
