Damon once said: "I push myself to the edge of insanity almost every day. But today - and thank God - I still have not thrown myself into this abyss" Looks like he's done it now.
The abyss is where the magic is! It's free from ridiculous human illusions, restrictions and rules! 😁 Like Alice says in response to the Madhatter " " Have I gone bonkers"," I'm afraid so, you're entirely bonkers...but I'll tell you a secret... ALL THE BEST PEOPLE ARE! " 😂😂
I went to the Gorillaz tour in Austin, and it was so crazy bc someone proposed to their girlfriend on stage, and Damon came out in Murdoc's priest outfit and played this giant horn thing 😭😭
I’ve seen Damon live a few times; twice with Blur and once with Gorillaz. I have to say, the main difference between the two bands shows is there’s chaotic energy with Gorillaz and fruity energy with Blur. I saw him in 2010 with Gorillaz, and he was acting like that, and I’m glad he still does it because it’s so funny!
When I went to see him in Detroit last October, during Tranz, he screamed asking if the audience was trans and then immediately refused to elaborate further and began crowdsurfing.
Its as if all 4 Gorillaz members are His personality traits, with muroc being the most active one just as murdoc is the one trying to take charge of the band
As a 26 year old who sometimes feels like I'm too old this is inspo af.. I'm never doubting myself again from rn on. This guy inspired me for nearly 10 years now.
He was always like that, there are videos on TH-cam of blur concerts in the 90s that were broadcast on television and recovered through some VHS where you can see that at that time he was already doing pirouettes and gestures when he thought they weren't watching.
What da ya mean Damon gets more deranged? This was him in blur, The good, The bad, and the queen. The man was always mental. I love him for his crazy self.
Went to the show in Detroit. This man looked directly the fuck at me, full eye to eye contact, while singing the first part of Tranz. I'm trans. Granted me and my buddy were the only ones dressed up that night and I was in a full Murdoc look; and obviously there's no way of him to know I'm trans 😭 but damn man, the pure chaos that radiates from those eyes was terrifying lmfaoooo. Shit was so funny because we were joking about him doing that the entire time we were planning on going and the fact he actually did it that night was just *chef's kiss* cherry on the cake.
@@ritagarcia9696 I was in the front row, with nothing but the barrier ahead of me and had been standing right in front of where the stairs to stage right were (my left), the one' he'd come down from time to time to get close to the crowd. He always comes down during Tranz so I was expecting him to get close but I didn't expect to be at near dick level when he'd jumped on the barrier literally RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME (a little off to my left, but still in front of me), to mess with the crowd I'd say like two or three rows back. It's unreal when people start swarming you to try to get close to Damon lol, my friend just sort of ducked down because she'd been to so many gigs that it's routine to her xD. I'm going on a tangent though- when Damon came down the first time, he came down to the beat of the beginning of Tranz. It helped that me and my bestie were the only people in full cosplay (I was Murdoc and they were 2D so like- I was literally painted green with a red contact, kinda hard to miss me 💀), so it was definitely more of like- the fact it was easy to pick the green one out of the crowd PLUS being right in his line of sight lmfao. But I know for a fact he'd stared me down because he'd even pointed at me as well. It was funny because me and my friend were joking for months before the concert that it was gonna happen so we shat ourselves laughing when it DID happen lol. It was my first time in front row and my second Gorillaz concert so I was fucking pogged, I also got heart hands from Seye (the live bassist) because I have a teensy crush on him and my friend was joking about it and they'd decided to give him my attention, so when Seye looked at them, my friend pointed at me, motioned with heart hands, and then pointed at him lol. He's a good sport and played along with it xD. It was definitely a super fun concert, one of the funnest I've been to. Edit: soz for going off on a novel of a reply akdkfk but it was just so fun and I get excited telling it bc it's just a happy memory for me and it makes me happy. It was just goofy all around so we had a good laugh and aaa
@@2doot OMGG THATS SO COOL, i was at second most of the concert but then managed to get first row, thats when i think he looked at me while he as singing, unfortanally it wasnt when he went to the crown (i just grabbed his leg lmao), anyawys i was jumping all the time so i think i got his attention cuz like when i tell you i was jumping its bc i really was
My drum teacher went to go see one of these. He got to see Damon running and being a crazy person but he was REALLY sweaty as my drum teacher described it. Lol
Damon is still as chaotic as he was when 20 like damn he didnt change one bit still the silly outgoing adorable handsome boi from blur i luv damon gawd damn i wish i could ever go to a concert if i wasnt so broke
Funny. There's also a bit in the Flow Festival concert in between El Manana and Empire Ants where he goes full goblin and kind of shrieks a bit 😁 If you wanted another clip.
i saw him in Philly for the 10/15 MET showing- for 19,2000 he started going into the audience and shook hands with my sister and i, then during Kids With Guns he started climbing on the border separating the audience and stage, i loved it :)
I was there when he came to Colombia (in the clip where he's dressed up in carnival clothes). He thought it was a flag at first and when he realized it was a costume, he went into the back and came back wearing it
I saw Gorillaz in Argentina in 2022 and Damon was such a cool guy to watch, what I most remember is he making a guitar solo with the flag over his body and jumping over the crowd.
When he played live in Sydney he said that with age he's started to enjoy performing live more and more without being so serious and stressed out, so its absolute thrilling to see him playing about and having fun with it 😍
I've been in so many concerts, my first time with Gorillaz was last year, simply my best experience, Damon never lose the spirit, unlike many cult bands who still do this for money not love
@@dodsonboys Thankfully no, Damon himself said in an Interview that he was extremely grateful it wasn't recorded. It was before everyone had cameras on their phones. The interview in question is "damon albarn talks about his worst ever gigs"
what do you guys want me to make next? blur? gorillaz? do you have a certain era or theme in mind? let me know! :)

no matter his age, he'll always be jumping, screaming, and dancing on stage like a toddler who's had too much sugar. and we love him for it

more like too much cocaine
YES
RIGHT

@@delle.theninthplane I wasn't born in Austin, however I was born in a small town close to it. It's very fun!

Cuz that’s his prime time 🤭
1:27
"Keepin' my *groove* on..!"
*dances like a 2 year old*
in philly he whiped out this like 20 feet long trombone and stared playing it. it will forever be the best video I have recorded

When you remember he has a wife and kids 💀 anyway damon do slay evreyday♡
When someone says “get your mans” they talking about someone like Damon
Instead of being 2D he seems to be turning into Murdoc! 2:47 that's Murdoc's signature move right there!
2022 was the year damon learned that his hips do not lie 🤩
the performance i went to he started twerking. not during a song or anything, he was talking about someone had taught him how to
baller lol
I was there during that first clip in montreal, it was surreal seeing him scream into the phone for no reason lmao
Same! It was an amazing show with an amazing crowd! Loved the huge wave everyone was doing before the first part lol

Oh fr? If you can link it I’d love that!!
Literally why idk whether I should go to a gorillaz concert in the future because what if my parents see Damon doin' a weird dance 😭
LMAOOOOOOO jus go LOL dont miss out!!!!
Was lucky enough to be at one of these shows and witness Damon's delightful descent into whatever that was. So much love and respect for this band!
in his murdoc niccals era

damon and murdoc have the same dance coach 👀👀
i like to think that damon is all the gorillaz members in one
Bro would grab any hat given to him and put it on
Did you see the light blue scarf he was wearing? It's not a scarf, it's the flag of Argentina hahahahaha
@@rumikohatsune5915 na I went in Orlando so I saw him with Minnie Mouse headband
saw him in australia just last year, i wasn't sitting close to the stage but i could tell that man was feeling himself

Lo mas chistoso fue cuando cantaba y bailaba con 19-2000 y se ponía a boludear con la bandera , apostaria 20 pesos a que todavia la tiene .
When he played live in Sydney he said that with age he's started to enjoy performing live more and more without being so serious and stressed out, so its absolute thrilling to see him playing about and having fun with it 😍
when whenn 19-2000 wghen wh-
no fr its like then that song starts he goes FERAL-
Damon is me 2am dancing in my room to get the cool shoe shine
The Montreal show was wild! I actually got to talk to Mr. Albarn too!
Oh you LUCKY LITTLE DUCKKKKK
YOOO I WAS AT THAT SHOW!!!! ur so lucky mate
DAMN LUCKY 😭🥺
It’s ALWAYS 19-2000
Gonna ruin that song forever 😔😔😔
A little bit of his brain is still in the 90s !
why is it always 19-2000 this guy goes crazy
i think damons had one too many sleeping pills
This is literally allowing the crack head at the 7-11 make music. And I listen to it like, “yeah this cool”
Man's throwing it back on stage and everything
He's in his slay era
he is like in his mid 50s and is giving people the hots...specifically me lmao
and also why is it always about his crotch dude🤣
@@ewp-po7jmthat, i fear, we will never know.
Sir please stop sexually harassing your microphone 😅
He shouldn't be allowed to make me feel the things he does he's literally only 3 years younger than my dad ffs 😭
This is the realest thing I've seen all day BAHAHA
he's the same age as my dad so imagine how i feel
My life goal now is to experience tbe pure chaos of 19-2000 live lmaooo
THE SEYE MOMENT I SWEAR TO GOD
0:53 Every movie villain:
It's like every Gorilaz cartoon member of the band comes out when he performs and these clips are just merdoc.
I love how literally half of this video is him “keeping his groove on” during 19-2000 lmaooooo
At Barclays in Brooklyn, someone threw a spiderman mask on stage and Albarn put it on for a few songs
He projected himself into murdocs character istg

I love that insane 54 old man

i remember seeing them live last september. That was the best money I have ever spent and some of the greatest memories I think I've ever made.
Yet if he was animated you wouldn't give it a second thought. Think he's just staying true to the Gorillaz they are a bit whacky like that
I saw them in Seattle last year!! Such a good show, one of the best nights of my life honestly
I got to see them in August here in Sweden and it was awesome! Love his stage presence
So this is where Murdoc got his personality 🙄😂
damon be horn
WHY IS IT ALWAYS DURING 19-2000 😭
Never realised how much Damon loves thrusting his groin at the audience
the collective in the sky got to his head
why is he literally the rock the house music video
I’m just glad he’s having fun
damon is feeling it
This guy will always be my favorite ISTGGG😭
He started twerking at sf show and also tripped over a box fell when del was singing rock the house
*I think by now we're all questioning this man's sanity...*
*...and so is he.*
100% lol
he’s just goofing off. leave him be
let him cook
I'm sure his kids love these moves
Someone please tell me how tall Damon is because he looks so damn short in all of these clips🗿
On google it says he’s 5’11” which seems ab right. Got to see him live with Gorillaz and he walked passed us. He’s fairly tall.
He’s really tall, actually.
He's like Markiplier lol
Got that short build but in reality is tall
HES SO FRUITY LMAO
just like me fr
why is it always during 192000 😭
I don't think I've ever laughed this hard in my whole life 😭😭😭
