Indeed it is, @Steaders. And I’ll bet I listened to this record 20 or 30 times before I really heard it, such is it’s subtlety.
When my coworker turns off his stereo...
I love how Jimmy talks about that cymbal crash having been 'whoops, too loud/oh shit' but Miles said it woke everyone up and gave it that tiny little bit of extra energy it needed. You can actually hear it wake things up a little, like a yawn and wiping the sleep out of the eyes.
When I saw Tool. Maynard James Keenan decided to point and one fan during the entire show. The guy wasn't sure it as him at first, he was moving around. When he'd point at himself, Maynard would nod excitedly. He was yelling stuff like 'what?' 'What should I do?' 'Hi?!??' in between songs but he kept pointing. Pointed down when the guy went for a drink. Resumed pointing when he returned. Arm held up for a 45 minute set. That isn't easy if you ever tried it.
What did it all mean?
That makes perfect sense if you mirror from thumbs to pinky on 2 keyboards. There's a scene in "Bohemian Rhapsody" where Rami Malick plays the piano from underneath with those "B.R. intro chords". I remember that album listing Freddie as contributing Beckstein Debauchery in the credits.
He played as well as most pop songwriters. But Brian May is on another level for me.
I wrote a short Streambyter script to do this too. Just subtract the NOTE value from 127 and output the result in a NOTE ON and OFF. It created some interesting effects for a player and some interesting music when fed normal piano parts. Never dissonant beyond the source intervals but something closer to negative harmony I suppose. I thought @linelineman might like it but then I'd have to explain StreamByter to him... he's very good at delegating and very persistent. A Mosaic script would be trivial and he could pick it up from the script site after purchase. Someone write it please and upload.
You know we never see you two guys in the club at the same time. Just pointing it out is all...
Oh no, what has happened to him?
Along those lines, one of my favorite non-musical music moments was while seeing PiL in ~1988 or so. Johnny Lydon was piss drunk. Not in some imaginary cool "rock and roll" way—he was just wasted and sucking. Leaving the stage mid-song to vomit in the wings. Messing up lyrics and cues. Lame. At one point he climbs on top of the stack of speakers on the side of stage (so, maybe 10 feet up + a 6 foot high stage), dove off belly flop style and everyone in the audience moved out of the way. BAM, to the floor. Deserved it. He did soldier on, drunk as he was.
When Hooky goes high at around 8:10 has always been one of my 'everyone be quiet for a second please' musical moments.
Speaking of New Order, always tickled when a band I like covers another band I like. Jump to 1:30.
Favorite recent concert moment...
This was during John McLaughlin and his band 4th Dimension's tour with Jimmy Herring and his own band. Herring's band opened with a fine set. Then 4th Dimension also played a fine set. But the "holy shit" moment of the night was when they all got together on stage, and started playing the unmistakeable notes and rhythms of a classic Mahavishnu composition. I felt the energy level of the audience around me rise to a new level, erupting with excited cheering.
Another recent moment:
Sun Ra Arkestra at Cropped Out festival in Louisville, KY. Nice little festival, with lots of attendees chilling in tents on the festival grounds, and modest-sized crowds (50-100) per set for most sets. But I think everybody - I mean everybody - turned out for the Arkestra. I turned around and what was a laid back, partially restored former riverside resort had transformed into sea of people, all around the stage.
Marshall Allen stood just a few feet in front of me, staring intensely into my eyes as he played.
@syrupcore
Ouch!!!
Loved the comedy classic "The Jerk" but had to be reminded of this scene.
Well, we are Mothers to some other Brother... I'm in Californica and the @LinearLineman is in Turkey (or close it to) on vacation. We seem to agree on a lot except the quality of sampled Saxes and how essential the drummer is to music to establish the proper groove.
@JohnnyGoodyear, I take music apart, @McD puts it together. That’s the only difference.
That and the fact that I worship canines as deities because GOD = DOG.
Dyslexics will see the connection immediately.
@LinearLineman wrote a blasphemous novel featuring my God's and it was quite humorous. The cats loved it. I bought a copy for my Kindle. He just keeps selling me stuff. I'm probably out about $15 just trying to figure this guy out. Not nearly enough information yet. He has exposed himself here for free.
@McD, I have often exposed myself for free. Now if I could have only gotten paid for it.
@GovernorSilver
Classic! So incredibly sweet.
coincidentally, I just watched The Jerk the other day.
There’s just something in this particular performance about the key change and resolution that starts with the sustained E at about 7:10 then down to a C# that still gives me warm fuzzies and makes me smile.
I stumbled upon that clip while looking for videos of younger Bernadette Peters. I'm loving her work on Mozart In The Jungle, but couldn't help but compare. Saw another video of her playing trumpet for real too.
This clip makes me wish I was in a rock band like that when I was in high school. The back story : 2 members of the band "Beck" are missing, so the rest of the band are giving up on playing their scheduled set at the big music festival... except our plucky hero, who decides to go it alone.
Funimation messed up the US release by dubbing over the song with another one. First time I watched this scene, I couldn't understand why the crowd reacted like that to such a lame song. I could see the excitement building in the crowd, but it didn't match the terrible song.
Then when I found this version in which somebody put back the original song, the reactions made a lot more sense. I also realized why it was dubbed over - US copyright law. With the song in question back in place, the buildup is so much more powerful and emotional
@GovernorSilver
There’s a very charming innocence to the “I’ve got a feeling” clip. I love it!
It doesn’t hurt that I love that song. 👍🏻
Here's another great musical moment from that show - makes me feel nostalgic even though I never heard the song before I watched the show.
Now I'm thinking of Kyoto Animation studio, which was recently struck by an arson attack. So in their honor, yet another favorite musical moment, this one done by them. It's another rock band themed show, this one being a comedy in contrast to the grittier "Beck". This is one of the all time great musical moments in the show, because the viewers are unexpected blasted by metal.

Yeah.
Ironically it resonated with me then(teenager) but EVEN more now after a lifetime of life...........
The Meat Puppet songs are also heart tuggers.
This song I posted literally makes me almost tremble or weep if I sit with it and myself under the right circumstances.
Interested in some of your other moments.
I remember seeing NIN for the first time was pretty amazing as well. The passion and fury was palpable.
I also remember Pantera for the first time live being a moving experience feeling power and rage on a massive scale like that.
Iced T Live was a huge turning point for me as well. Ended up hanging with him and pursuing some work due to it.
Seeing MINISTRY first time was also riveting and inspirational.
Believe it or not Type O Negative shows were an odd but cool learning time as well in the Goth scene of NY and Philly.
This is such a great thread.
And there are so many moments in so many songs, but I never don't get chills when Devo segues from "Gut Feeling" to "Slap Your Mammy" (around 4:00).
thanks everyone for sharing.
