Um... That drummer is an absolute MONSTER time machine. And it warms my heart to see a room full of young people diggin' the new Quincy jones Orchestra of their generation ( this is a huge development in the right direction)
They're a variety show. It's great that they figured out the proper balance between the music, and the skits and interviews. Shows always used to mess that up - way too little music. Plus, the old show actors mostly couldn't play, and had to hire a whole separate band, which usually became embarrassing in that the band was more talented than the actors. And so the actors were always trying to marginalize the band, to avoid that embarrassment - "Hey, you guys will play during the commercials, so the home viewers won't catch on and figure it out!" But we knew. We were like, "why don't they have the band in between the commercials, and then the actors could play skit highlights going into and out of breaks?" So then they started using DJs instead of bands. What a rip-off. This way is better.
Came back to listen to this again today...lazy monday afternoon!! great mix balance, love the drums, hi-hats and cymbals like feathers, kick & bass... brass, keys, perc....heck it's all good ! lol! great job @Cory !
I love the camera work on this set. It reminds me of when I was a toddler creeping my grandma as she played barrel house gospel piano for her church, The Liberty Street Freewill Baptist Church in Durham, NC circa 1960.
Absolutely an ode to Scott Mulvahills “Begin Againers” and I’m all here for it. I believe Cory and Scott were on tour together for a while. I guarantee if you listen to that song you’ll get it. 2 insanely talented musicians paying respect to each other
Cory's albums opened my mind up to other genres of music. The whole band inspired me to play my instruments again and experience the joy of being a musician. Happy
Horns & winds have such unrivaled layers, nuance & TOP like life force & PETAR on skins should be marketed as an uncontrolled substance - he's Top20 All 🌎
When guitarists are trying to be more heavy and becoming less musical in the process, along comes Cory Wong and hits it up clean. Doin' it different is always the right flow.
I’ve always appreciated the Ode to Scott Mulvahills “begin againers” in Meditation. I heard it immediately, being a mulvahill fan and Wong fan it just hit close to home ❤️
Wow the solo in Meditation got me once again. Saw and heard it live for the first time at NSJ22. Moved me to tears then and did the same again now. Beautiful! And the whole concert is amazing!
That's funny I was just listening to that, and I was going to comment "nice solo" without any hint of which one I meant, and then your comment was the next thing I saw, so I put my comment here.... and dang, they stuck another ad right in the climax! I don't mind the ads, but better placement maybe.
Can we get a Cory, Wongnotes, and Khruangbin collab?! Thank you Cory and band for continually posting such high quality videos and being all around stand up humans...this much love for sharing life, music, and knowledge can't be faked. Lead by example, listen to others, and teach from the heart!!
Stanley Steamer in the house indeed! Antwaun's clearly a genius improviser - I picture each of these United takes sounding completely different, all of them great.
Can someone call the police? Cory's live performance have always been amazing but it is a crime how much talent is on that stage (and on the post production team)
Cory, I've been listening to your stuff actively since your release of Cory Wong and the Green Screen Band... Caught you live every time you've been near Madison or Chicago and I just gotta say I really appreciate your music and I'm glad it's starting to get the recognition it deserves, because you've certainly been on the grind. That said, I only have one simple request. I NEED to hear a Frogville at the next show you play in Madison. It's my girlfriend and I's favorite song and we have yet to catch one live. It would absolutely make our year! Thanks, Travis, a fan. P.S. I love how much your band has been able to cut loose a bit and start to mess around with improv. I know that's difficult to do a lot with a full horn section, but you guys still manage to make every show unique and special and the band's talent shines through. Keep on keepin' on!
@@travisumbel6877 We got Frogville in Dallas!! It was so awesome. I met Cory at the end of the show and he said something about being unsure of that tune but they threw it in anyway. Definitely one of my favorites
I love what you do and appreciate the quality of your performances. To me, you are the best of Post Rock as Rock seems pretty dead, but I am more than happy to have it in your capable hands.
Us too!! Love that this live recording is like being there again!! 😍🥳 Peep the purple masks in the second row!!! Behind the guy with the curls HEADBANGING constantly aka my brother @benny p 🎷🎸💃
I love the musicianship and the joy within their faces as they play together like TEAM WORK🎹🎷🎹🎸💖 This is the modern day TOWER OF POWER!!! I'd love to see Corey & the Wong Notes hook up with Huey Lewis and the News.💖
Thanks for blessing us with new concert footage Cory! Still hoping you’ll somehow hook up with my states orchestra and do something spectacularly awesome and funky with them one day 😅
So how does Nêgah Santos perform with Cory and the Wongnotes _and_ 4-5 nights a week with Stay Human on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert? Spacetime warping? Secret identical twin?
seeing musicians smiling at each other when they do something cool is one of the most wholesome things on this earth
Agreed
i hate it when whoever is in charge tells the crew they cant smile. like WHY THE HELL NOT?
totally
It's a testament to the culture Cory has created.
We all have our thing. Lucky us, tihis band has that thing!
"Meditation" has to be one of the greatest songs ever
Sierra Hull absolutely shreds those solos. She is world-class. This was pure joy in miniature format!!
Um... That drummer is an absolute MONSTER time machine.

@@GizzyDillespee dude what are you talking about. This is a big band perfomance.
@@GizzyDillespee mmm

Jay killed it with that flugelhorn solo!
Chuck Mangione says "Feels So Good"!
Brooklyn bop comes home, happy to be there!
What a great set. Kevin Gastonguay on keys doesn't get enough love. His solo in Meditation gave me chills.
I love the camera work on this set. It reminds me of when I was a toddler creeping my grandma as she played barrel house gospel piano for her church, The Liberty Street Freewill Baptist Church in Durham, NC circa 1960.
Absolutely agreed: the cinematography is as lyrical as the music with much much love in it
Nega Santos is by far the best percussionist out there right now. She’s a beast!
38:00 I'm swooning 😍
Meditation keeps getting better. This is the best version of that tune yet. KG killed it.
Absolutely an ode to Scott Mulvahills “Begin Againers” and I’m all here for it. I believe Cory and Scott were on tour together for a while. I guarantee if you listen to that song you’ll get it. 2 insanely talented musicians paying respect to each other
@@SavannahMansion Yes! I saw Scott Mulvahill open for Cory Wong in Indianapolis!
@@SavannahMansion wow
This BAND... ❤💯
"Over The Mountain" is such a killer piece!!!
Cory's albums opened my mind up to other genres of music. The whole band inspired me to play my instruments again and experience the joy of being a musician. Happy
Beautiful comment, Reminds me that no matter the crowd, the joy is realky between You & the Most High & thats ALL that matters
Kevin and Sonny T solos 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Over the mountain is my favorite composition and performance
What a gift to everyone who listens. Truly what I needed tonight
Cory, you spoil us so much with SO much footage!!
I was there in the front row!!! So amazing
Horns & winds have such unrivaled layers, nuance & TOP like life force & PETAR on skins should be marketed as an uncontrolled substance - he's Top20 All 🌎
9:52 This tone is insanely good. Delightfully Scofield-esque voicings too.
I agree my , favorite part
the drum solo on lilypad warmed my heart
and the interplay with Nêgah Santos, and such a great horn chart from Michael B. Nelson.
Cory & band thank you for blessing us with quality music 👍
Best concert I have ever heard in my life!!! Truly astonishing musicians
Can't believe I'm just discovering this guy. Wow is the only word that comes to mind.
When guitarists are trying to be more heavy and becoming less musical in the process, along comes Cory Wong and hits it up clean. Doin' it different is always the right flow.
It’s the gentle moments when a band plays that displays their greatness
This is the appetizer before an in person show, and I feel like I'm getting full already
Great music as always!
I’ve always appreciated the Ode to Scott Mulvahills “begin againers” in Meditation. I heard it immediately, being a mulvahill fan and Wong fan it just hit close to home ❤️
What makes Cory great is that I’d rather WATCH him on TH-cam than LISTEN to him on Spotify!
Lol. I like his podcast on Spotify.
The bad thing is that he gets less money from TH-cam views than Spotify streams...
@@thmsrttg how is it bad
Negah Santos is a force of nature! Love her energy!
They make me happy ❤️🔥
was here. was extremely dope. I remember enjoying the last few songs a great deal. They got FUNKY!!
Loving the B3 with the Leslie. Such a classic sound. 17:57
Great show! Thanks for sharing this
Thanks Cory!

It is impossible to watch/listen to this without smiling from start to finish.
Tack!
Great band and great musicians. They seem like a family who really enjoy making music and appreciate each other's talents. Wonderful concert.
Love watching this and hearing me and my group screaming in every song. Cory wong and the wongnotes are legends
Sick Band!
Jay Effin Webb!!!!!!!
That percussion duet was pretty sick
So glad to hear new generation playing rnb funky jazz groovy stuf, oh man sounds so good.
Damn, That's good stuff. Much better than I thought it was gonna be.
Awesome! 🎸🎷🎺🥁🎹
God bless you all
This whole band is on another level man. Every single one of them is incredible. Can't wait to see what more they have to offer
please ad more of your live performances on Spotify! I love them!
King has been keeping me entertained at work for weeks with all these concerts you post! You the man, Cory.
I love this concert so much.. come to Korea... asia tour please..!!!
Can we get a Cory, Wongnotes, and Khruangbin collab?! Thank you Cory and band for continually posting such high quality videos and being all around stand up humans...this much love for sharing life, music, and knowledge can't be faked. Lead by example, listen to others, and teach from the heart!!
Thanks for the live fantastic concert 😀 🙌 ❤️ that is so amazing sounds happy happy day
cameraman : good framing and focus all along well done to you too
Wow, killing it!
Stanley Steamer in the house indeed! Antwaun's clearly a genius improviser - I picture each of these United takes sounding completely different, all of them great.
Great show!
This band is totally amazing. Thanks a lot. You all are My favourites 😍🤩
Oooh... It tickles the left side of my brain ! 😎
what a beautiful job you did. Congratulations!
Wow I was at this show! It's awesome to experience it again!
Can someone call the police? Cory's live performance have always been amazing but it is a crime how much talent is on that stage (and on the post production team)
16:17
That stroke
I wish "Live at Brooklyn Steel" was on vinyl.
idk about that, there were quite a few mistakes throughout the entire set, but the solos were insane
@@thmsrttg maybe theyll hire you next time

Did he end up playing it?
@@aleckarmen3887 Noo! :( Got a 2nd set full of Antoin Stanley though so that was at least cool.
@@travisumbel6877 We got Frogville in Dallas!! It was so awesome. I met Cory at the end of the show and he said something about being unsure of that tune but they threw it in anyway. Definitely one of my favorites
I don't think I've ever seen a bass clarinet in a band before - very cool
Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
I love what you do and appreciate the quality of your performances. To me, you are the best of Post Rock as Rock seems pretty dead, but I am more than happy to have it in your capable hands.
Smoothe Move won me over, I've been trying to get into him with no luck until this
What a great band!!!
Oh hellll yeah got here early with my pals. front row to the video
lucky
Same here!
Us too!! Love that this live recording is like being there again!! 😍🥳 Peep the purple masks in the second row!!! Behind the guy with the curls HEADBANGING constantly aka my brother @benny p 🎷🎸💃
fantastic...
How is it possible that a band is ACTUALLY this tight live? Good lord. The pocket is insane.
Playing on click helps a lot here I think, works well for this kind of music.
Practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice
Yurr cory
J’adore…
Ok, but the Jay's trumpet solo on brooklyn bop!!!! Awesome.
best band out there
Maravilla!
I love the musicianship and the joy within their faces as they play together like TEAM WORK🎹🎷🎹🎸💖
This is the modern day
TOWER OF POWER!!!
I'd love to see Corey & the Wong Notes hook up with Huey Lewis and the News.💖
Just got tix to see you with Victor Wooten in a couple weeks. Should be a sick show.
Aye bro pleaseeee come to Australia. We'd love to see ya here
Great stuff. Many thanks to Cory and the Wongnotes for such musical versatility and excellence. Suggestion: a Wongnotes version of Squib Cakes?
this is top class guys
the best team !
Sierra is incredible. What a tasty player.
Thanks for blessing us with new concert footage Cory! Still hoping you’ll somehow hook up with my states orchestra and do something spectacularly awesome and funky with them one day 😅
This just so palatable.
Over the Mountain was sick... giving me bela fleck vibes.
mandolin > Bango IMO
Nice jams
🔥🔥🔥
Cory is so nice, 5 stars
Brooklyn Bop is sooo good I don't want it to end 😭When will we get the super extended version? U know the one where everyone gets a solo 🤩
Great Bass solo in the middle and piano solo at the end...Cory, come to Germany NRW with your big Band asap pleeeeaase
don't get me wrong this is still good music for sure
Dang, Sonny pushing 1600 watts. Band sounds great!

The film the Late Show during the day. it's not live.
