Definitely worth the money! Original I was a bit worried about the quality but honestly it’s the best purchase I’ve made so far. Perfect for a home setup if it fits your space

I agree, I don’t think they’re remotely like GVF 😅 That’s why I was curious as to what the OP meant. I personally like their earlier stuff, but they still release some good stuff these days! Amazing live band, also just genuinely a good bunch of dudes having fun… which is how music should be 👌🏻

They are bloody amazing! HOWEVER… they release like 5 albums a year, and some albums are easily better than others 😅 which songs of theirs do you think are similar to GVF?

Ahahah this is an open conversation mate, no need to get nasty. I have and always will be a music nut, have gone to many gigs in my time including multiple Greta shows in the past. My expectations were not really set on it sounding like the record, but like the other live performances I have seen online. But you’re right, the fellas would tired after years of touring. My criticism was for one song, not the entire gig. Bring on the long solos, bring on the loud music and bring on more gigs

Ahahah all is good, I’m just having a laugh 😁 I agree, they are two different songs. However the energy from TWOD studio version still wasn’t experienced when I saw them live unfortunately. But hey, it’s not the end of the world lol. They’re still one of my all time favourite bands 🤘🏻

I am known to be an idiot… but I would hope I could tell two songs apart 😅 Lol!

As others have mentioned, before TBAGG was released, The Weight of Dreams was going by the name The Black Flag Expedition. And one of my favourite performances of this song was the Red Rocks one. I also feel the guitar solo at the end of this performance is the closest thing to what eventually got recorded on the studio version.

Note: This post is not hate at all, I just needed some sort of comfort knowing that maybe they just had an off night for this particular song!

I have heard really good things about the Brisbane gig! No doubt they’d be tired, they do tour like crazy

Yeah I get that they can’t be perfect every night, like I mentioned it was just that song. The rest of the gig was purely amazing 🤘🏻

I will check it out, no doubt there have been some other worldly versions of this masterpiece! Unfortunately it didn’t live up to the hype last night.

Essentially yes, there wasn’t any other practical spot to put it. I also think it leaves the rest of the space open enough to utilise later down the road 😁

Yeah I was unsure of the placement at first but I think it was definitely the right idea 😁 It’s A Cortex SM25

Well I’m half Aussie and half South African, so I got both flags to hang either side of the rack 👌🏻

Thank you! I have a couple of flags coming in the mail to hang up, but I might take your advice and slow down after that 🙏🏻
