- DGD playing Synergy live at Swanfest 2022 at Heart Health Park, Sacramento. Lead single off of the new album, Jackpot Juicer. First time the song was performed live.
For those who are unaware, DGD lost a beloved member (brother, friend), bassist, Tim Feerick, just prior to this event. Tim's family gave their blessing for the festival to continue and the band performed as a way to honor and celebrate Tim's memory with his family, friends, and fans. I posted these videos for those who wanted to be there to celebrate Tim and support the band, but couldn't. This show was very emotional and difficult for the band, but they did their best, through their grief, to honor Tim.
*please note- Negative comments will be removed.
It hurts to hear how choked up Tilian is. You can hear in his voice that he’s been crying
Jon Mess absolutely nailed it. Like holy shit that rap in the second verse was seamless and perfect.
yup. Jon holds it the fuck down
incredible performance
That rap in the second verse is the most impressive thing since idek loo
He always does.
Poor Tilian man, you really can hear that he has been crying
Kudos for them for still taking the stage
I think the reason Jon killed it is because he could convert his emotion into his raw voice and it definitely was easier for him to scream then Tilian to sing
I beg to differ. It’s just as hard for him. Screaming is still a skill, not just raw voice. Same rules apply. Not trying to be an asshole I just don’t want the takeaway to make it seem like he struggled any less. He’s just really good at what he does.
I can’t imagine how hard it is to preform this without Tim.
I feel like you can just see it.
It hurts still. God bless. Prayers for Tim and his family.
Their set was so emotional. Everyone in the crowd felt it. I cried the ENTIRE set. You could very easily see the pain that Tilian was feeling. They cut the show short, they just walked off stage 😞 no announcements or nothing, just quiet. Nobody in the crowd was upset; we all understood. It was honestly kind of beautiful…. But so, so, so sad
It ended, they preformed lemon meringue and we on the night as encores as they usually do
@@zootboots9976 really? Wow, that was probably one of the shortest headliner sets that I’ve witnessed… I just assumed they walked off cuz of it. That’s so weird to me
@@mareesawakefield5742 yeah they he really choked up on strawberry wake it was still a good show I just would have like them to share their opinion of like having a moment of silence for Tim or small introduction to the Tim family in the background I mean a loss of any kind is no different from a would you know
We thought the same thing about Tilian's vocals when they came to Wichita. He is such an amazing vocalist. I just wish they would've had some more time to heal before the tour.
Poor dudes. My heart hurts like hell for them. They still came out and did their best. Fucking mad respect.
It's such a shame man, they finally had the perfect lineup with the official addition of Andrew. Tim will be for sure missed.
Andrew Wells singing in Tilian range for this type song is EVERYTHING. this show was so amazing .
Dude Jon NAILED that fucking run in the 2nd verse part.
Everyone seems pretty sad and low key while Jon is just straight vibing and sounding hella good
Everyone deals with it in different ways and Jon weirdly enough has always been the silent thinker type. Which is weird being as that he’s so loud and crazy on stage yet in meet and greets he’s mega peaceful and stoic
@@abyxis you pretty much nailed it, I also see Jon as the type to throw himself into the performance to cope. I know he's feeling it too (end of Man of the Year kills me), but he's a very stoic guy in general.
John cried a few times. Hell, everyone did :(
Idk. Some of the other performances sounds like John started breaking down too.
@@DragonKnightX12 When? I couldnt tell
Having been there as well and after waiting for this show for over 2 years, I wouldn't have traded it for anything. To have been able to be there and support this band that's provided so many years of joy for me during one of their hardest times....that's more than enough for me. It was all felt. The synergy was with the band and the crowd.
You don't sing as beautiful and soulful as Tilian if you don't have a gorgeous, sensitive soul and I feel that
Without getting into who’s better, I would think a hard look into the past vocalist’s of DGD you could easily disprove this lol.
@@c0rnmeal69 don't get me wrong jonny Craig is my fave voice of all time I ain't saying that
Mine too. That man has soul for days, it just seems to come from a very peculiar place.
@@c0rnmeal69 Same with Tyler Carter. Shame him and JC both turned out to be awful human beings. Tillian has a unique voice though very high for a man, I think Kellin Quinn is the only that comes close.
@@c0rnmeal69 no
I'm kind of surprised they didn't have Andrew take the verse Rob Damiani featured on. Seems more in his comfortable range than Tilian's. It would have also taken a little pressure off Tilian too, and you could tell he was really struggling. My heart aches for these guys, RIP Tim💔
The first time I heard this song, I totally thought they’d use Andrew for Rob’s part because Andrew sings in that octave. I was also surprised they didn’t do that. But I agree that it’d take some pressure off of Tillian during this time. I saw them live in October and I can tell a difference within their energy without Tim. 💔
Tilian sounds like he’s having a really hard time with notes that he usually hits effortlessly. I wonder how much they are all suffering because of the loss.
Beautiful of the band to play. I can't even watch this without crying I cant imagine what they were feeling.
Thankful you put the disclaimer there. This video doesn't even begin to show Tilian's talents live. We just saw them for the 7th time in Raleigh, and I swear they were tighter than I've ever seen them, didn't hear Tilian nor Jon miss one part. Everyone else spot on too. Doing this was cathartic to say the least I'm sure for all involved.
It really hurts to hear them perform this way. You can tell it translates in their talent and execution. Its as if a piece of them has gone away.
Take care DGD.
Anyone else crying watching this
Yup 😪
No
bless these guys
Bless this mess ♡
I’m so glad you recorded this! It was painful to watch but they’re so talented and grateful they went out there and rocked it for Tim. ❤️
My heart especially breaks for tillian here, I'm surprised he could sing at all but even with all the offnotes, the pure emotion of his performance was palpable. Jon mess tho. Dude was a fucking unflappable machine who continues to make it look effortless, perfect performance from him.
You can definitely hear it. They were off that night. Shit must be weighing on them really hard. RIP Tim, and I hope the rest of the band is able to find closure
god it hurts. my heart hurts so much for them all. they’re so strong
Jon Mess is a beast. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
R.I.P. Tim… 😔
My soul hurts! I think the whole band did the best performance for Tim ! Love DGD 🤍
Very sad. Impressed that they did this set despite everything. New fan of this band, they are kickass.. wishing the best for them in these difficult times
Jon carried this
Really really not trying to be that guy, but isn't it a little eerie how Synergy has the lyrics of "I'm living life as if I'm already dead" and Tim died shortly after? RIP
i was JUST thinking about this like 10 minutes ago ngl
I picked up on it right away. I haven’t heard the lyrics the same since Tim died.
I can feel they are hurting so badly 😔
No idea how Jon pulls it off
The Demo Team Podcast gonna have to feature some
Of these
I give them credit for playing this song, the lyrics sounded like someone was trying to kill themselves. I wouldn’t be able to even say the words.
2:11 uau
This makes me sad.
I love DGD but man they are so OFF here.. but I know they're still dealing with the loss of Tim so I can understand. Sucks to see but I know they can get through it.
trust me, they are aware. it would be unreasonable for anyone to have high expectations from them in this state. they didn’t have to do continue to swanfest but they did, they are trying to be strong. let them catch a break.
new song, tim died like a week ago, new bassist filling in last minute. Cant blame them much.
They literally let the show go on for the fans when they didn’t have to. This has had to be one of the hardest moments for DGD.
@@benpdr10 I wasn't trying to sound rude or insensitive with my comment btw. I'm surprised they even went through with Swanfest, I would not have been able to perform at all after such a tragedy. Mad respects to them for keeping the show going for their fans though, I'm sure it was a bittersweet moment for the everyone there.
Tillian talked about this on Twitter.
"The first swanfest was a seamless performance and the second was the opposite" 😢
Damn everyone is sad even jon(im not being sarcastic since everyone have diff way how they tackle emotion), ik you can feel it.
