It's crazy how Tortoise sounds like the most technical band but also the most chillin band at the exact same time
Tortoise is pretty much the only band that I would literally kill to see live. They replicate their songs so wonderfully. I've proudly been a Tortoise fan for years, and have no intention to stop, ever.
Amen, brother! I've been a fan for a long time as well. Post rock, in general. You listen to Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, Isotope 217? or Mogwai?
If I could choose any band to be a member of, Tortoise would be it.
I ran into Jeff Parker at the Book Fair in L.A. this past spring. He was walking around with his daughter and it was packed. I was walking toward him and because of the crowds almost ran into him, which is how I recognized him. I just blurted out "are you Jeff Parker from Tortoise?" and he said he was. He stopped and chatted for a minute as I told him what a fan I was, and he introduced his daughter and signed a fair brochure for me. He said Tortoise was indeed working on new music and he hoped it would be out "soon". Super cool and accommodating guy. Hope we get us some new Tortoise in the new year...
+Douglas Stephens Sweet!!
+Douglas Stephens Cool story. . They have no other equal musically or creatively. They just don't seek out any fame or fortune so they are very modest guys in person.
thats one of the things i like about them! that they're very down to earth individuals and their music reflects that!
I left a comment on this same video roughly 2.5 years ago praising Tortoise and this performance. I had only been listening to them for a few months, but I fell in love with them hard.
2.5 years later I know every Tortoise song like the back of my hand, and they can still give me goosebumps. Remarkable group of musicians.
Binging Tortoise tonight and found this set!! So wild this post is from 15 years ago in 2006 youtube was not even a year old yet.. trails blazed
10 years after it was recorded and still cant get past this set :D
I just remembered it!
Just realised I’ve been coming back to this clip for the last 18 years. Tortoise was the soundtrack to my twenties. Magic happened in that live set
wow, i cant believe ive only just found this band this very second. this music is so beautiful.
really beautiful melodies(i think thats how you spell it anyway).
Such great drummers, they sound so smooth. Even the parts where they are both soloing sound great, it doesn't sound aggressive, it sounds like a collage of sound, like they're painting a texture over the music.
Holy fuck they murdered Swung From The Gutters in the middle of it, but it was interesting in its own way, I definitely didn't expect that free jazz blow-out and it made my heart race
Swung from the gutters is the best song in the world!! Thanks for this vid! I love the scene with the drummers at 12:01 Its fantastic!
We just saw Tortoise in Vancouver Last week, We were tired from work and had work the nxt day,Tortoise picked us up and dropped us in our beds. I woke up with Tortoise playing in my head that morn. Truly great simple music. Thanks Tortoise.
When I worked as a cashier at Borders in Chicago, I was fortunate enough to have Jeff Parker in my line. We chatted briefly, but it was super busy. very cool guy!
Stretch (you are alright), The Lithium Stiffs, and Crest are from "It's All Around You". They are the 1st, 4th, and 5th songs, respectively. The 2nd and 3rd songs are Ten Day Interval, and Swung From The Gutters. They are off "TNT", which is my favorite album by them. The last song is Seneca, which is off of "Standards".
When you look up "Real Deal", Tortoise is listed for music. Live it's like they reach into your heart and brain at the same time and flip the Tortoise switches on and you'll never be the same musically. Never.
Still incredible 10 years later
i want to like this every time i watch, i think i'm ~100 of the 700k views
+beatfox9 haha, i feel the same!
+beatfox9 I feel ya brotha. I've been watching this video since 2008 when i first learned about these guys. i think i might have a little problem.
i saw it a million times... and they never miss a hit... it´s incredible...
"Swung from the Gutters" is sweepingly gorgeous! I've been lucky enough to catch these guys live about 5 times, including Lounge Ax in Chicago. This is really a stand-out set. So much space. Thank you, Tortoise!
Amazing performance, especially the last two songs.
listening to tortoise changed many things... seeing them live changed everything... Thanks Theorem, for reminding me one of the best moments my ears and eyes have ever lived!!! (if you guys haven't seen "reach the rock" GO RENT IT YESTERDAY)
Girl at 18:52 knows what's up.
Well, from Portugal, i can only say, that i met, TORTOISE, just a few days ago, and...what a great band! Refreshing sound, with the guitars in their place...good sound!
2004 i worked as soundasistent ,at the concert in Hamburg. Tortoise were very nice people!
Thank you for you great music

Didn't know them, but they got a BIG fan now! After listening the second tune I felt like hearing Steve Reich on a Rock band! Great! I'm a fan now! Great band!!!

whenever i want to show people what's a great new band from the last 30 years i show them this video!
the word sublime, has never got a better use than describing this band live performance!
Such a great band! I love that sound.
WOW i have never heard of them before. the world needs ore musik like this!!!!!!!!!!!
seriously what other band has two drummers!
im finding all these bands lately that are off the CHAIN and have been around forever!!
King crimson, Melvi's. I'm sure there are others.
Tortoise is amazingly hypnotic.
I saw this video when it was posted. Great show!
This is amazing. Good thing there are still rock bands out there which search for a personal sound. Long live Tortoise.
So glad this has been on here for so long (7 years now). This is one of the first videos I made playlist for. I think I called it "amazing."
I always liked this version of Ten Day Interval the best.
a beautiful band. killer drums
Wow. This is really great. I used to see Jeff Parker with the New Horizons Ensemble in Chicago in the early 90's. Always loved his playing. I had lost track of that Chicago scene for a while after I moved away. This group is really amazing.
The Lithium Stiffs / Crest are so great.
6 years later they still are.
What a stunning band. I wish they'd release their live performances on CD and DVD.
I really enjoy watching this video!
The show they've played here in Brazil is in my top 10 list, for sure!
I could listen to the first song all day long
Saw them at a tiny bar in rochester last summer. Nice fellas.
Stunning set, really consumate pros. My main criticism of Tortoise is still that there's no 'hit' for easy access for the casual listener; with a set like this, who cares?
the first unknown was "Stretch (You Are All Right)"
the 2nd unknown was "The Lithium Shifts" and "Crest" (joined together), all from the album "It's All Around You".
Amazing.
thanks for the quality of video
They just the coolest
Really hoping for a new album been a while
Wow I'm glad I looked up this band. This is amazing! One of the most original bands I've ever heard.
amazing!!
tortoise is a excelent band
I would love to see these guys live. this music is so fucking amazing and beautiful!!
thank you SO MUCH for posting this!!!
I love these guys, they're such great musicians.
I love this set. Thanks for posting. Appreciated in the highest honors!!!
Agreed, I have to see them live. This is another band I discovered by accident and totally love!! P.S The Grateful Dead was never this dynamic, talented, or even interesting.
the metal band Ministry had two drummers when i saw them one year - maybe like 2005? It was pretty great. Still this band Tortoise rules.
Thanks alot for the uploading
can't get tired of listening to it.
So cool. I love David Pajo, he's really left his mark on music.
If you get time check out Lucid Rivers
awsome footage!
Simply amazing. I am in awe of this band.
Love these boys music, seen them live and met them personally in a bar before. top musos
Thankyou for this. Very cool indeed.

HOLY SHIT.
That is all.
Wow I just found out about these guys yesterday, and I wish I had known what I was missing out on.
Tortoise are awesome! Apparently they're working on a new album that might come at the end of the year. Can't wait.
This is so great. A treasure. THANK YOU!!!!

Awesome. Thanks for posting this.
That WAS a good show. Especially the way Dan Bitney jumped around onstage.

after seeing these guys for the first time, i could have died and been happy
thank you, great video
great show, what a feeling.. love them!
Damn I love this band. Thanks for putting this up!
Best version of Swung From The Gutters ever. If you make music and are not influenced by this band you suck.
lo mejor que se puede estar experimentando en estas epocas!
They are one of the top 3 shows I've ever seen. Pritzker Pavillion in Chicago, a FREE show too.
I love how on "Crest", the crash symbols are played on the 2 and 4 and then switch back to the 1 and 3.
