Yeah, I saw them in Raleigh, NC on this tour, it was awesome, you know how bands say things like "great to have you here, so glad you came," to the audience and you know its fake, you're just another stop to them. Brad seemed really genuine and a nice guy and you believed him when he said that. Great singer too of course.
Good things never last,and in this case great things never last!Job well done,as always with anyone who has ever played with Boston as well,one of a kind guitar,vocal,drum sound,so inspirational!
Those were the days, when Boston could carry arenas and sheds by themselves. This was the last tour with Brad Delp where the band promoted new material. Of all the songs that were 'reworked' on the latest release, this song turned out the best, imo.
Robert Cole I don't doubt it. imo, Brad's death may have been a wake-up call to work more and harder on getting the live show right. And the light and video show may be used to make up for the lack of band presence on stage. There was a time Tom actually bragged about not practicing. I doubt that is the case now.
@@cuttingthechord1419 Totally agreed! The current lineup of Boston may be the strongest since the original in the 70s. The shows from the 80s, 90s, and the CA tour were very inconsistent. Sometimes they were good, but many times they were sloppy (as many of the bootlegs will prove). This current band really nails it pretty much all of the time and they did really step up the show (ie. lighting, video, etc). Also since they are touring more frequently Tom and co. are keeping their chops up. When you only tour every 5 or so years like they used to it's easy to get rusty. I also think there may be a making up for lost time element here. Tom ain't getting younger and when Brad died Boston had only done about 8-9 tours in the past 30ish years. He seemed to have this mentality that the band only tours when there's a new album out, and interest in his new albums plus the monumental wait time has fatigued people's patience. I think he's finally accepting that just touring for the sake of it and being a nostalgia act without anything new to promote is OK. I have gotten the impression that doing Boston tours used to be more of an obligation to him than a desire, but these days he seems to genuinely enjoy touring and performing, so he's willing to put more effort into it. Oh, and one other thing I think might be a factor is that technology has finally caught up with his expectations. Modern live sound technology has gotten to the point where he can get the sound and streamlined performances that live up to the records. He's such a perfectionist and while he has thrived in the controlled environment of the studio, performing live is erratic and unpredictable and it's out of his comfort zone, but the technology is so advanced now that it's possible to get it just right. He seems to be more satisfied with the results on stage which is motivating him to tour and play more.
Kimberly was afraid of singing with Boston, and asked Brad to help. Brad told her to sing like a man trying to sing like a woman trying to sing like a man. I guess this led to an awesome duet!
Brad's voice was a MAGNIFICENT PART of Boston But Tom' s genius contribution and vision to MAKE Boston cannot be denied I LOVE Brad and miss him terribly....so not taking away from brad Watch Rick Beato breakdown of Boston songs and you will see Tom's genius- and Brad's amazing gift
I had no idea the band ever attempted this song live. However, Tom should really have let Brad sing instead of himself. I guess he figured that out for the remake and let Tommy DeCarlo handle the male parts. Sorry Tom, we love you, but you should really stop trying to sing.
I miss Brads voice. Wow Kimberly can sing! Sad that we can't here them together anymore.
Kim has so much class!!!
Yes...I totally agree...I miss Brad’s vocals...Thanks
What I wouldn’t give to see brad perform live just once
Tigerguy. Saw him twice & love & miss the man. But Tommy DeCarlo is also a great tribute to Brad in his singing...

She's an excellent singer.

Gotta say I prefer the CA versions of both of the songs they reworked (the third song because a straight remaster).
Kimberly una brillante cantante y hermosa
Great song!
Queen Kimberley.."My Star-Wars! 🙀🙌🙌🙌
97年生まれだけど親父の影響でハマった
There's a reason Tom played guitar and everything else except vocals...
That's my mom!!

Emily McCorvey ,great mom
Emily McCorvey she is so beautiful babe
Emily McCorvey, besides tremendous beauty and talent, she has so much class!!!
She's hot,she added life to Boston at at time they really needed a change of direction...great country vibe!

Where’s that new album Tom? Would be cool to hear some stuff!
You gave up on love Annie, you gave up on love.
Fucking awesome
Epic
Brad was ( Boston)
Brad's voice was a MAGNIFICENT PART of Boston
But Tom' s genius contribution and vision to MAKE Boston cannot be denied
I LOVE Brad and miss him terribly....so not taking away from brad
Watch Rick Beato breakdown of Boston songs and you will see Tom's genius- and Brad's amazing gift
I was tempted to send this to my ex 😂
最高だわ
Where'd the beautiful Kimberly go
トムショルツが世界で一番
Good voice can't hear her
I see......U!
Wow, Tom’s voice ruins the song; he needs to stay off the drums and the vocals.
Wish Kimberly would sing Rock Ballads and Rock instead of Country.
not the love,,just the bullshit,,,

Great song but Tom has no business attempting to sing it. Best to leave that up to Brad and Kim.
Crypto an money be more important.
