I went to high school with Ryan and he was always into music for as long as I knew him. His HS band was called "Capital Assumption" and then he joined another local Michigan band (I think) until he did his solo project "The Dry Leaf Project". Pretty sure he hitchhiked from NYC to L.A. with a friend just before eventually joining State Champs. He is living his dream, just as we all believed he would. He was always dedicated and had the talent. Congrats Ryan!
Lol. Yeah he even has the same hairstyle with the hat from almost 10 years ago. Only difference is that he’s now wearing chain necklaces and wrist watches instead of the dog tag necklace he wore.
I was there and I was told State Champs fans go HARD, especially in New York but goddamn I was not ready for this chaos 💀 not complaining, I loved it tho (that’s me crowd surfing during History at 25:53)
Honestly, seeing them on this tour live in Atlanta, you’d never notice. They tracked the rhythm parts and pump it through the PA, it just seems like they didn’t mix it in on the live stream. Sounded great in person!
Tyler has recorded the rhythm guitar parts before they left for the tour. Everything is played to a click track in their in ear monitors. The rhythm tracks he recorded are played through the FOH. As long as the band keeps in time, it’s perfect. You’d never notice. Lots of bands do production things like this.
@@MJPGuitar my band did the same thing when our bass player left the band. We cut down to a 4 piece (2 guitars) and tracked the bass live. It honestly tightened up our sound so much, and we had the running joke for two years that we had the best bass player in charlotte (never missed a note!) 🤣
I would guess singing songs like elevated night after night would torch your throat if you did it the studio way but it sounds so different tuned a step down or however much lower they tuned it haha
I'm just gonna accept at this point that Derek can't belt with distortion anymore. Real shame, he had the best power behind his voice in the scene for a good amount of years
@@samiel1014 sometime between December 2018 and June 2019 he had some kind of vocal issue. This is when most of the onstage performances don't simply "not match up" dude sounds like he's tearing his chords right there and then. 2020-2021 was really tough for him. I did not say he was as good as he used to be but he has made remarkable improvement over the last year. Perhaps with better technique or he's taking more time off.. looking after his voice whatever it may be. At least now he can hold a tune and do some distortion again. Not as good as it was but it is better and that's all he can focus on. To me it's encouraging that it's getting better. Like the lead singer of the used who seems to be getting it back a bit if his performance with Blackbear on The Late Late Show is anytning to go by. Trust me I've followed this probably more in depth than anyone else. Excluding those involved.
This is such a bad representation of State Champs. This mix sounds no bueno. I’ve seen them live probably close to a dozen times over the years and they never disappoint. Love these guys I met Derek like 6 years ago outside of venue in Arizona, such a genuine guy very down to earth. Ryan is probably one of my favorite guys in the entire Industry love that guys energy. You can tell these guys really love what they do. We love SC keep rockin y’all 🤘🏻
It makes me a little sad how State Champs has aged, I am currently 19 years old and since I was 17 years old I have been listening to their records repeatedly when I was in a Taxi, seeing the landscape and listening to their song it is very satisfying and a feeling of freedom, thank you State Champs for accompanying me in these 2-3 years, I will never stop listening to you ❤️❤️
For anyone wondering why this sounds like shit, it's because the livestream was using audio pulled directly from the soundboard and for whatever reason did not include the rhythm guitar which had been pre-recorded for the tour. This audio is NOT what the crowd heard live.
it was actually pulled directly from my desk. but, it was post EQ from my desks to the mains. we had insane db limits and a very harsh PA, so all of us engineers did things to beat that don't sound good on recording but sounded normal live.

Such a timeless band. They have and will age well. They keep things modern, yet resist trends. No cheesy rap verses or 808 beats in the backround.
I appreciate the singer’s grind and persistence to still dress like it’s 2014 in 2022.
He also HAS to be bald as shit since I’ve never seen this guy without a hat on.
@@hunchowiget5670hahaha. That's fucked up, dude. 🤣🤣🤣
@@hunchowiget5670 fair point but he does have a head of hair 😂

@@hunchowiget5670 are you fashion police fan or just a regular g4y???
Watching this band live makes me realize how much the bassist carries everything they do
I was really thinking something similar and impressed
This realization is disappointing but true.
seeing myself crowdsurfing is literally the best thing ever

Thank you for uploading this!
17:31 Tomato derek! 😅he gets so red when he is into it! Cant wait to see them for a 5th time!😁
thank you for this
Thanks to Tony Hawk pro 5 found this band back in 2015
State Champs would sound so good with a sax player
Very good idea
A thousand hearts featuring Saxl rose ?
Amazing, specially the last song with Ben. 🙂👍
Thanks for the upload!!!
Thanks for this men
they do need rhythm guitarist :(

I wonder why they didn’t have the touring guitarist this year, he was exceptional and another voice that was solid too.
@@driver_7x he's out with Avril

He ruptured his vocal chords, it's a permanent damage..
so sad...
@@samiel1014 having said that he sounds better than he has in the last few years
@@Ryan-kf7of compare him to the 2018 warp tour and then this. Nahh

I was at this show and can attest all the bands sounded way better than this online mix
Can’t hear any rhythm guitar at all
theres barely any cymbols. Thats the main issue
@@brianmeadows6783 we all had to do insane shit to beat the db limit at this show. the cut i had in my high mids was disgusting to look at.
@@jasonharris9187 well as a fellow sound wizard I'm impressed 👍🏻

Where is the second guitarist?
Rip the girl at 18:25

Im at 7 and true

Derek said "Hello were from State Champs" lol
“We’re called State Champs” lol
@@Drownmeout344 Not what he said..
@@natenowicki1426 he clearrllyyyy says “called” my man
30:45 nice chick
this mix is rough
Fire that sound engineer
Those pants are so tight the knees popped out.
At last a state champs concert🤓
🐐🐐🐐🐐
No. Not even close
Cok Derek raine sampek murup abang
hahahaha melasi ya cukk
Karo mesti jamune alkohol barang bang
Had high hopes, but this is horrendous.
Obviously pulled straight from soundboard with no rhythm guitar. Definitely diddnt sound like this life.
I hate the kick's sound
Drums sound terrible
Great band, terrible mix.
The drum tuning sounds horrible

It's cause he got sick and continued doing shows instead of resting. Late 2018 early 2019.
this sucks lol
