Exciting!!! Valentines Day with Foos for us in Oz!
HALO dat u?! LOL
I wonder what it could be. Maybe a new 666 song? Or for real an old song that has never been played live? π€
Have they played everything off Medicine At Midnight live?
Everything except 'Love Dies Young' and 'Holding Poison'
Considering the latter is being used for pre-release promos of 666, we can safely mark it as a possibility - if not for this VR show, then for their Kimmel appearance on the 16th
This sounds Awesome!
Band sounded pretty tight!
great to hear Home live again
Loved the slowed tempo ones… T Shirt, Walking After You and Home. This is what my 40yo being craves. LOL
Aside from the pretty visuals coming from the ring above their heads I don’t think watching it in VR was worth it.
if anything because it was a largely fixed POV the extra bodies on the stage wielding cameras were distracting.
Those 3 were absolutely the highlights. T-Shirt was phenomenal. Walking After You has always been my favorite "light" song. And Home was a beautiful way to end it.
I guess that's why Dave thanked the "black clothed" people? Right?
How many songs were played? Anyone have a full setlist? And can it be viewed again?
Thanks!
I watched it after the fact via the facebook event page. It was roughly a 45 minute set. Considering the production value and lack of hiccups, I don't think it was actually live.
Samantha posted a couple of photos to stories of a rehearsal before this was announced. My guess is that they pre-recorded it before news broke, given it had to be edited etc.
Not an event to boast about for Meta, it was a shitshow. The Roxy stream didn't have nearly as many issues.
It was free and the song choices for the set itself were great.
It was pre-recorded for sure which is why it was so annoying that watching it in VR from 2 fixed cameras you could constantly see camera operators walking between the band recording it for Facebook Live. They must've done a bunch of run-throughs, why not have 2 cuts?
The Facebook version makes for better viewing, which is stupid as It was billed as such a big deal for Meta - so in that case they should've gone all out and cinematic for that and let the other stream be the afterthought.
so what did the VR version look like?
It was shot from fixed 180-degree monoscopic cameras, and song-specific lighting effects came from the ring above their head. It was impressive.
This was amazing for a 45-minute free set. Would love to see some more song choices this creative in the tour. The only thing that wasn’t cool about hearing T-Shirt was that it didn’t go into Run after
Oh my how good it was to hear them play 'Home' π€ a song that never fails to tear me up
