the frames live at witness 2001 4/8 - revelate

glen takes theatrical deep breaths before launching into this because everyone knew it was going to be a big one. 'revelate' - the frames biggest song and a song that meant so much to everyone. it was 'revelate' that first put the frames on their own self controlled path when they released it as an independent single just after island dropped them and just before ztt signed them. an amazing version where glen just couldn't resist some stage diving.

I love both groups. I would love to see The Frames tour the U.S. again, it's been awhile.....

[@themoley91]

I desperately need The Frames proper to make a new album and tour the shit out of it. I will always be in love with anything Glen does and I've seen him solo 3 times but this. Band. I regret I wasn't born 5-10 years earlier in Ireland so I could have experienced this live.

[@thebluevelvetriver]

stunning! i have many versions of The Frames doing Revelate but this is by far the best one I've seen

[@galesden]

This is great quality stuff thanx

[@womanatwittsend]

Onto 4 of 8. Colm you too are awesome. Glen may be the front man but never doubt ou appreciation of the gift you give us!

[@titonosfe]

Glen by himself keeps alive the industry of guitar strings😂

[@Gdev02]

The frames will go down in history as one of the greats..just like thin lizzy and rory gallagher

[@olivier]

[@ishisu1985]

[@TrevorSeery]

[@guitar0music]

@cory2cm yeaaa that makes sense. I love em both. Both bands are so passionate.

[@womanatwittsend]

@guitar0music I so totaly agree with you!

[@aarronmccallan]

Thats what i call a band, got my tickets to their mandela hall gig, bringing my girlfriend who hasnt yet heard them but im pretty sure she'll fall in love like me :D

[@davenoon]

holy fuck.

[@guitar0music]

@mortigitempo3 how? i love them both! they are both awesome.

[@cory2cm]

he didn't actually mean they are stupid. it's just, the frames were so utterly ridiculous that it makes swell season pale in comparison.

[@TheFakeBurger]

And how is that?

[@felixramsey]

Violin player looks like Roger Daltrey.

[@TheFakeBurger]

Well, "pale" is a whole other thing than stupid.. ;)
And I don't think, you can judge The Swell Season based on The Frames - two totally different things ...
