Wow this is flawless. Cedric totally nailed it. I think this came across much better than the album version; it's so emotional and raw here. Amazing upload.
His lyrics on this album absolutely get me off, rock solid...for me, this is THE Mars Volta album...the instrumentals are gorgeous and brilliant, then his lyrics just carve out some beautiful, intricate detail.
Fuckin GORGEOUS. I wanted to see this live before I died. Oh well. I'm still in freakin mourning over the breakup. Luckily what they left us is so good it will withstand the test of time...forever
inspirational. i love the mars volta and i love at the drive in and omars solo shit. im gonna go see an OMRL concert son. its gonna amazing. its gonna be good
It's not the only gig from 2012 where he looks like that. Watch videos of At the drive-in gigs from that year and he will be standing there, with a bored expression, too. During this time he was mourning the death of his mother, so he wasn't really into freakin out onstage. He said that in an interview. Look here: www.mtv.com/news/2698914/bosnian-rainbows-omar-rodriguez-lopez/ ( but it could also be, that In Absentia is one of that songs that just don't really work when played live. Nevertheless i think this is a great performance, especially from Cedric!)
best song on the record
I wasn't expecting to find any live performances of this song and this blew me away that they could tackle such a free ranged tempo piece
"This song separates the posers from the real fans" -Cedric Bixler Zavala
DAMN Cedric has never sounded better. Who knows what the next TMV album would've sounded like. But still, Antemasque is pretty good.
Отлично !
ugh that break down gets me.

Holy shit. The quality of this is amazing. You're my favourite person in the world.

Everytime I see Deantoni play, I always think...'He can really do that.' Awesome.

Come on, why has an amazing band got to break up before I get to go to their gig?
I love the faces that Deantoni makes.
Da last gig?
This drummer's genius
RIP
That's true enough

7:42 best part
CEDRIC BIXLER-ZAVALA!!!
Never realised how beautiful the lyrics to this song are. 6:30, am I wrong, my brother?
Omar looks tired and disappointed when Cedric starts to dance at 5:15, so sad....

if youre saying that deantoni parks cant keep time, youre definitely trying to troll. that dudes better than a metronome
when ifirst heard this album ithought they used a drum machine and iwas right its called deantoni parks

ditto from me
Omar looks bored. At moments when Cedric goes crazy his expression clearly say " What the fuck" :p
The drums are to high in the mix..sometging that has plagued their livr shows since T.P joined..IMHo.
