So anyway, the file (167mb .mp4). So dload both .rars somehwere hit extract here on pt.1 and that'll extract the folder from both .rars. Set your player to 16:9

Holy fuck, where have I been . This is one of my favorite songs and I didn't realize they covered it!

He does look lame without a guitar though.

Kinda weird with Billy's Bassless voice but not bad all the same.

Wow, this fucking kicked ass. I never heard their cover of it, never d/l a boot of the shows when they played it. Billy's voice owned! Does he always play it sans guitar?

"rock n roll party" irks me. Good cover though. I would never knew or think they would cover a song like this...I have the LP and I <3 this song!

....and oh yeah, billy manorexia does NOT look hot!! ;)

oh my goodness, i dont know if i can handle him dancing around like that. what a sultry cover!

is there a girl in a nirvana shirt in the front? thats kinda wierd..

true. we've never known him to have an interest in eighties music before

Me likey Jeff. Its nice to see him lead a song. I like the guitar tone of the song

And I can't wait till SP guitar tone goes away from the ZG sound...that's what made all of the songs sound the same and repetitive.

i still suspect that all these covers are the result of bc & jc trying to "gel" with the new members by playing songs from bands they all like, to help srengthen their musical connection.

jeff has mentioned echo and the bunnymen before, right?

Floppy Nono
03-31-2008, 06:14 PM
i thought billy has mentioned being a fan of echo and the bunnymen and he worked with new order and always talks about loving joy division. he did make that new wave dance rock solo album after all...

flyfire
03-31-2008, 06:19 PM
yep, Gibson interview wasn't it. Also there's been no sign of Tommy Lee at the shows

Floppy Nono
03-31-2008, 06:21 PM

ciGarski
03-31-2008, 06:24 PM
yeah i was wondering about that. jeff must have had a hand in the arrangement

oh he definitely was, thats what i mean. they seem to be finding common ground to build off of. even with that footage of them sharing old music and stuff, during some of that "day in the life" footage...it seemed to be happening.

Floppy Nono
03-31-2008, 06:30 PM
yeah the whole "i'll rip you a copy" scene or whatever it was at rehearsals made me think that too.

Wasn't it jeff who got to pick some of the teases during hmm towards the end of the tour? I thought there was something about this, does anyone remember if it was truth or just rumor?

davin
03-31-2008, 06:49 PM
i vaguely remember something abotu jeff's involvement in this as well, from show banter or an after show conversation or something....but i thought it was more in regards to superchrist and them coming up with the jam together.

either way, you're right...there was something he took part in that i can't quite remember.

03-31-2008, 07:14 PM
Is it just me or does Billy's vocals improve drastically without having to concentrate on the guitar. Last time I heard this set up was Blank Page and he butchered that live as far as I'm concerned.

Anyway, best cover they have done since the "revival".

ciGarski
03-31-2008, 07:59 PM
I'm blanking on other full covers they've done since the "revival"

Another request for the qustion: Does Billy always go acapella on Lips Like Sugar?

Floppy Nono

yes, afaik he does.

Jeff is rockin' in this
I hope they keep it in future setlists...

ciGarski

the videos on youtube all seem to have him guitarless. man i wish he'd bring back black boots with pants. keep the skirts over seas mr corgan.

ciGarski
03-31-2008, 08:20 PM

yeah he is. give him the full lead and potentially some of the arrangement duties and away he goes.


this would be a cool single.

I'm pretty sure that clip on youtube is my cap. I also recorded the audio seperately, TV > 2 RCA to single 3.5mm > R-09.
I've made an mp3 from that - http://www.mediafire.com/?tdfnbdx9dgy
Should i put a lossless set up?

Also not sure if anyone checked but the links i posted earlier in the thread are for a video of all 3 songs

Nice to see Jeff taking over the guitar front. I sorta hope he would've when they started playing STRTJ. Sounds great. And is that the same SWEET blue tele he had in that Lassie Foundation video circulating in youtube? Man, that's a good looking instrument.

04-01-2008, 11:36 AM
a great song. I loved it the 02 and got my mate singing it every day now, from me singing it every day. A studio version...like something from bullet single would be great

I don't get how sometimes he can sing properly from the diaphragm and other times he totally blows it and embarrasses the band i.e. Settle Down on snl "I took my chances yeah" sung completely flat and from his throat.

ciGarski
04-01-2008, 07:55 PM
if you listen to this instead of watch it, his vocal styling, of at least the chorus is comparable to really old school billy

stumpycat
04-02-2008, 12:12 AM
I agree about the "old school" style vocals. I think it's because when Billy sings a circa 80's new wave style song he just subconciously slips back into that mode.
One of the best things to come out of the Zeitgeist era. :)
Next they should cover one of their own old songs...Psychodelic. I could imagine that song prefacing Lips Like Sugar perfectly.

04-02-2008, 11:29 AM
Ha ha on 0.25 into it he spits in the direction of Jeff/crowd and Jeff just gives him an odd look.
Billy loves to spit... Really enjoyed this performance but Billy looks completely gay the way he tries to hop around the stage..very cringeworthy...loved the vocals..

Yeah, you can see Billy doing that same kind of "Billy dance" on some of the footage during the credits of Vieuphoria. At the end of Transmission during the Adore tour...yep, same dance!

thanks for the audio of this...although the performance really didn't do too much for me. It was enjoyable but I kept waiting for it to end. Too technical for my tastes.

How long do you think Jeff labored and practiced over those guitar parts? Lol.

ciGarski
04-05-2008, 02:16 PM
not long.
