![This Band Changed My Life! [Cardiacs]](/img/n.gif)
Rest In Peace Tim
i was still a child when this was happening. its actually so painful and heartbreaking that i never got to see them live bc im too young (and in the US). finding the cardiacs changed everything for me. its a terrifying power they have, to make music like this, so much and for so long. i didnt know music could mess up my world like this. dang
Always happy to hear of younger people who've discovered them, had the good fortune to have move to London before they stopped playing. Even got to see him play with Sarah and nick as the sea nymphs at a pokey little pub in Camden.
I was 14 in 2002, and only recently discovered cardiacs, but my kids are 9 and 5 and love cardiacs, so there is hope for us all yet, a hope day

Nearly twenty years ago and I still remember the absolute joy of this night!

That bit around 46:27 when Tim says "You all look so pretty" in such a lovely, simple and child-like way actually made me shed a tear.
Im so sorry Tim has left us, but he left us with so much beautiful music. he was passionate and made so many bands be so much better. Thank you Tim XXXXXXXXXXXX
Brilliant and wonderful band that I've only just discovered (yes unfortunately after Tim's passing) such a shame how bands like this are hidden away..... but....it's never too late to become a fan of any music. Chills up my back and hairs on my hairy hair filled body all standing to attention.
That's the way we all go.
I probably found them (were they lost?) about the same time as you. Such brilliance!
I just woke up to this, on Autoplay, after they arrived halfway through a dream I was having. Really weird, but strangely pleasant. I had only ever heard “Is this the Life?” single before, and had never listened to them. They are pretty feckin’ incredible.
Oh wow this is worth sitting down and discussing with someone like a post DMT experience. Glad you discovered them but crazy it was just thrust upon you in such a vulnerable state lol
Some things are just meant to be.
This is probably one of the best live videos of Cardiacs I’ve seen. The picture and sound quality is really good. You can see how much the crowd loves Tim and how much he loves the crowd.
Im new to Cardiacs. I love them.
Welcome. Your life will be different now :)
Wow
Dirty Boy completely blew me away! It's safe to say that it's one of the greatest songs ever written
Objectively speaking I think Dirty Boy is the best song ever made but my personal favourite song is still Dog-Like Sparky.
I was hoping after watching this to work out how they do the constant vocal at the end...still don't know. What a song and what a band!
@@DrumsTheWord It was most likely done on backing track, towards the end of Dirty Boy it's very vocal backing track heavy.
It can be done seemless loop forward loop backward, delay with long tailed reverb or even grain synthesis, given it was 2002 it was probably a looped backing track with the 2 female vocalists reinforcing it.
@@gavinbuck8130 In other viedos it's easier to see that the backing vocalists maintain it throughout by taking turns in drawing away from the mic mid note while the other is on mic. Take the breath off mic... get back on the note and fade themselves back towards the mic... then the othe vocalist can fade themselves away and go for their breath...etc
Have a watch of this vid. You can see more clearly what is going on.... especially with the left vocalist who turns her head away from the mic to fade herself out.... breathe and back in. The vocalist on the right favours the lean away from the mic! ha

Over and ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!
Ever worthy of laudation!
Never has anything been so good!
INCREDIBLE BAND, wish I'd got to see them
Just discovered these guys. The Stranglers meets Primus. I think I'm in love.
thanks for everything tim, RIP,.... over and out.
What a stunning performance! RIP Tim.
Thank you for everything Tim, you will be sorely missed
i've yet to hear a bad version of SIGNS - their best track for me
My favourite from Guns besides maybe jitterbug
RIP Astoria. Yet another fucking great venue falling to gentrification
We will praise him! 🙏
I mean Tim.
RIP Timmy, your music will live on forever.
i've seen this concert so many times now I wouldn't find the money for all the enterance tickets :-D , it's so good, filling up the gap of the past when I totally missed-out Cardiacs... Just love them! ♥
there's simply nothing better
First saw cardiacs at the tramshed in Woolwich London well over 30 years ago and saw them many times after a beautiful joyful band RIP Tim
That grin during Tarred and Feathered....priceless.
Fucking amazing, what a unique way to start the set with that massive hymn!!🙏♥️
59:45...Kavus Torabi!
Cardiacs......the greatest noise ever known to man...or dog...or fish.
I was there! 14 years ago?! Sigh. Brilliant to see and hear this again, such an awesome experience first time round :< O
I finally get to see the band that introduced me to Cardiacs play with them! I've been wondering about this gig for 13 years and wasn't at all disappointed. Magnificent! Thanks Mike!
In my heart forever Tim Smith, Jim and co members, leaders of the starry skies.
Had the strange fortune to have in my bands audience at the bull and gate, John poole was also playing with his band ablemesh. He came up to our vocalist after we finished and kissed him on the cheek.
I remember this concert... the Encore was:
1. Acoustic Version of Duck & Roger the Horse by Tim's one-man-band
2. The Duck and Roger the Horse
3. Is This the Life
Your memory serves you well: cardiacs.org/astoria-2002/
wow what a show. wish i could've been there.
34 minutes ,,o, my God,,😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Absolutely superb, but naturally we all knew it would be.
R.I.P. Tim 🤎
RIP Tim
just : THANK YOU !!!!
I love you tim, stand up guy !
Mike, this was my first Cardiacs show, and also my first encounter with Oceansize. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for uploading this. You have made my day, my week, and probably my year.
Its funny seeing Kavus running around giving people guitars instead of jumping around on stage
Quite good really
Fantastic .
30:50 AAAAAA
It's Jim It's Jim!!
Love the intro to Tarred and Feathered.
Yep. I was at this one, kind of had to be really. :D
Oh sh*t - thanks for uploading - I remember this as one of the greatest nights of my gigging life - am almost afraid to watch it in case I've remembered it wrong. Doubt it, but I was certainly heroically drunk.
Why would you.be afraid to watch a video?
@@swanningabout Reducing the wonderful memory to cold, recorded fact, losing all its context in the moment. Fraught with danger. Still watched it though. Couldn't help myself.
I think about what Tim does here quite often. 34:26
Rip Tim
Thanks Mike this is the first live Guns tracks I have heard!
This is beautiful to the power of fuck! Missed it at the time but to be able to experience this momentous gig in such quality a decade-and-a-bit later is glorious! Thank you!
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thankyou
I want to die having not been aware during their existence. There are better than Sparks, and on par with Guided By Voices. I would have moved to England to be closer to them.
Ah! Another GBV fan that's into Cardiacs!
So young)It's amazin'!
well that's been fun, thanks very much !
Oh how I wish I could be there.
Thankyou :D
That's me late for work then.
Wow. I don't know why I never watched this particular video before, but I'm fucking glad I watched it now. If I dare say so, I think this is the best Cardiacs concert recording I've seen to this day. Sheer, crimson-red, heart-bleeding emotion from start to finish. What an atmosphere. I mean just at look at them play Silvery or Signs, for instance. Makes my skin tingle with joy and awe. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the only video recording of them playing songs like Core and Day Is Gone? Can we get a DVD of this, pretty please? If only.
I've never seen them play core or day is gone before either, two of my top cardiacs songs, in fact this whole show is fkig perfection, thanks so much for uploading
This is great and also Gambler's IOU
Might anyone or the uploader have a non-compressed version of this video? :)
brave
this music is too important to let it end now, it would be good if the band could still carry on performing Tims music with different singers/performers (i'm sure there would be lots of candidates) a bit like the way the blockheads have carried on after ian dury died. whats the genral opinion on this?
You got the rest of it? Want to hear the acoustic version of Duck. I think this was the gig that they did it.
Holy fuckballs that would've been a great night to have 100 beers at a venue........
More like a heavy dose of magic mushrooms to make sure you remember every detail. Appreciate the sentiment but I feel like 100 beers would make you not remember the concert at all lol..
54:23
if only arcade fire could do this well!!
Is the organ recorded?
Hey Mike, did you record this video? I'm looking to get the rights to put it in a documentary film
I filmed it, but the rights are with ABC.
Kavus hops on stage at 59:46
Where's the keyboard player?
They used pre-recorded keyboards.
Under the drummer in a box.
Some say he’s still in the box to this day
WHAT SONG IS THE ONE THAT STARTS AT 24:42?!?!
Ian Walkerz Silvery
As Hiro said, it's Silvery, which Jon Poole wrote. If you want the only studio recording version, go to randomjonpoole on Bandcamp and find The God-Damn Whores album (it's on there as "Sparkly Silvery Sky", and it's very good).
Is anyone knows the name of song on 17.39? =)
+MikkaPil Core (From Heaven Born And Ever Bright)
+kohlemainen Thank you very much!)
Is that Kavus at 17.48?
+Jon Scargill Certainly is. I love the shirt
Nice to have on TH-cam. Almost the best line-up. I 'm annoyed by the backing track. This is too fake. Who's playing the keyboards? Where is Jo and Susan? Just my opinion.
They never wanted anyone to replace Bill Drake, and after that point the backing was always automated (which is why Bob's got headphones on, so that he can drum to the click track) except Dec '98 when Bill joined them as a special guest. All Cardiacs gigs after '91 were like this, although there were special gigs with ex-members such as percussionist Tim Quy, Sarah Smith and Dominic Luckman, and on at least one occasion Jon Poole played live keyboards as well as guitar. Jo Spratley only appeared briefly at a couple of gigs iirc. Not sure who Susan is: do you mean Sharron Fortnam?
Nobody cared about the tapes in the gigs, trust me.
Who is him?!
It's now Tim I think.
55
Song at 24:04?
+Gar Cla Silvery
+m4r35n357 Thanks a lot!
If you don't sign the red dotted line, you will never be famous. this is the best of British. I know ,i wrote a very famous track and received nothing or credibility.
Not great...
I was there ❤❤
