I just noticed Caleb sneezing at the start of knocked up. He can still pull off a great show no matter how he feels  |

The sneeze just makes it cooler to me, that they r normal guys.
The Knocked Up performance was amazing with all the crowd singing it... same with On Call as well.
I'm not being silly now but they are easily, by a country mile THE best band and live act in the world today.
Chili Peppers/Muse/The Strokes/Foo Fighters/QOTSA/Green Day are all great acts and I've seen and enjoyed them all but KOL just are that step above them.
They don't have to talk to the crowd, they don't have to dance about on stage but they still entertain as much as anybody else. There's a sign of how good their performances are.

That's completely true saminton, thinking back to bands I've seen who've been great, but have put on an enormous show, without effort these guys just do it better.

Indeed - Greenday, for example - all the pyro/Billie Joe constantly talking to the crowd, cover songs, crown and robe + props is all very nice but KOL don't need that to whip a crowd into a frenzy.

Haha, that was actually the first band I thought of.  Yeah, without a lot of malarky like that, some bands would just fumble their way through. KOL have never needed to do that... Billie Joe can keep his poncy crown, the real kings don't need them. |

There's a sign of how good their performances are. \ I agree -they don't need to have any props or stuff like Muse and their extravagant light shows and they don't need to talk to keep us enthralled. They're class live and it's the little things that make it so good. Like Jared's constant face pulling while bassing, Nate's blowing bubbles with his strawberry gum, Caleb's little dances with his guitar and Matt's complete stillness while playing an amazing solo-those are the things that you don't forget and that you'll be talking about forever. Plus they sound better live than on CD. Just amazing..... But i have seen Bruce Springsteen 3 times live and no-one performs like him. He's a legend and gets my vote for best live act. KOL are a close second! |

It looks like Caleb utterly sang his heart out. And it looks like they all played their hearts out. They are the best band in the world. I just admire them for being humble in a way and really having great attitudes and wanting to do their best to please the fans that are there for them. What great guys!
