This concert is so beautiful it often brings me to tears when I watch it. Their art is so powerful, so honest, so inventive, so pure. As a former musician myself who played in several bands, I am, each time I come back to Dredg, simply astonished by the profundity and depth of the songwriting. Frankly, I have difficulty comprehending how anyone could write music this good; this perfect. But where _does_ genius come from? We cannot predict or formulate it; we can only recognize its joyful and terrifying presence through the transfigurations it brings. Dredg's music is secular-spiritual. To listen to them is to open yourself up to a transcendent and profoundly altering experience. In my view, this band is too good for our society. We really do not deserve them. I have tried to introduce Dredg to as many people as I can, so that their lives can be transformed like mine has been. The fact that this band has not been, in my view, adequately recognized for their profound and lasting artistic achievements actually causes me physical and emotional pain (though I trust their loyal following genuinely appreciates their work). This may sound crazy; if anyone reads this they will likely say to themselves: wow, that dude has issues. What I'm saying, though, comes from my sense of seriousness about what music, when made by rare artists like Dredg, can mean and how delicate and rare the existence of something like that is, particularly in our over-marketized society wherein music is increasingly mass-produced and artistic authenticity is consequently threadbare and imperiled (which, in a way, it always is and always has been). Thank you, Dredg, for changing my life with your music, and for being with me, in the depths of who I am as a person, for all these years.

Dino is absolutely colossal behind the kit. For how much energy and physicality he puts into his playing, it's never too loud or overpowering the rest of the band. The amount of raw talent in Dredg is nuts

The guitarist does something so unique and lovely. He provides the atmosphere that the others breathe and fly around inside, and also the ground they walk on. He uses his delay pedal to multiply himself, and as one part fades away a new layer is added, building a rhythmic and tonal structure that gives each other player context. He keeps more time than the drummer and provides a firmer foundation than the bassist, but somehow doesn’t diminish them. It sounds almost like the bass and drums are playing on top of the guitar, which is pretty unusual. He does so much and it warms my heart to watch this man play.

This band has no business sounding this good live like they do on album. Wish they’d come back

We definetly need more of this wonderful, handcrafted, intelligent, various music. Come back!

This concert is a quintessential masterpiece.

I grew up listening to these guys. I grew up in LA and was a musician, sound tech, engineer, you name it. I played in a lot of bands with varying degrees of success. One day my best friend and drummer when we were drunk and stoned said "you have to listen to these guys." He sat me down in his room in dark and put on "El Cielo" and it was a high point in my life.

We need more DREDG in this world! Luckily, I've seen some recent interviews with Gavin that suggest that new stuff is in the works. I'm a musician myself, and I know the process sometimes isn't so quick when you're working on being creative in between "real" jobs. But I hope that we can have more music from this amazing band in our lives sooner rather than later! I just discovered this concert today and I'm kind of in bliss right now. 🤘🏽🤘🏽 The entire band sounds impeccable, and I honestly don't know how Gavin can keep his voice so pristine throughout an entire show!

The mixing for Dino's drumming is borderline criminal. They needed someone like Acle from Tesseract to come and show them how to set up a killer live drum sound

Wow, that was the best live concert I have ever heard of my entire life. Dedge is so amazing I hope one day they come back and play for us. ❤️❤️❤️🙏

I got some effin *chills* on Ireland This band is way too good for it's own obscurity

Oh man this has been floating around in pieces of varying quality for years. The whole thing in best quality available, 👌

I haven’t listened to them in so long. I cried

If you know, you know. I hope they realize the inspiration and beauty they deliver to music lovers.

Wow, what a concert! I was fortunate enough to be there that night, and while it was a bit weird to sit during a dredg show, the acoustics of the venue really did the band and their intricate sound justice! Thanks to the Rockpalast team for capturing this show with style and grace!

This is one of the best live performances ever…. Period!

That tour with Judgement Day was incredible. Blew my mind!

1000% underrated

El mejor disco en vivo, lastima que ya no estén activos, aun así sueño con verlos tocar nuevamente y que mejor en México.

Unfassbar, dass das schon wieder so lange her ist. Ich war da. Auch die Tage davor beim Rest des VISIONS Festivals. Good times.

One of the best bands in the history of music 🎶 ❤

Gavin loves the band he's in. I can tell. That guitar sound is so huge and thought out. Starved circuits, OD, reverb...the drums? Forget it. The bass and etc, indeed. Gavin is a fan of this band, big time! He writes lyrics like Janis Joplin at a stag party.

Absolute royalty of studio to stage every single song, every single album.

I hope they tour again soon. So glad I found this live performance ❤

Man I've been missing out, Dredg is amazing!

Wie habe ich diese Band damals geliebt.

Love this band! thanks for uploading

Einer der Besten!❤

DREDG we miss you!!!

So many of my favorite artists are appreciated and shared by my friends and family members. But so few of them are moved by dredg the way I am, and the way that most of you are. I just don't get it. But it's great to come here and read your comments. It's great to be able to share that with others, even if it's just an anonymous group of people turning the comment section into a productive, thoughtful, and non snarky place to show admiration for an artist. Thank you.

What amaizing band!!! please comeback we need real music. Mexico

Watching this in 2023 and remembering seeing them in a small venue in Athens, GA (the 40 Watt) in the early 2000s. Listened to them play almost all of El Cielo. One of the greatest experiences of my life. Taping concerts on cell phones wasn't a thing back then. It was less than a hundred of us, just in the room vibing.

Dredg is One Of Them Unknown An Under Rated An Under Estimated Spiritual Bands Wee All Need Two Have A Taste Of Now

Perfection! I will continue to patiently wait for new music ❤

Tengo dos décadas y muy bonitos recuerdos con su música. Una de las bandas mas desvaloradas de la historia. Una banda con un sonido singular, original, único!!

Goosebumps everytime! ❤❤

thank you, this is christmas for me.

i'd pay anything to see this band live, if you ever see this gavin.. please come to Monterrey Mexico someday

This is just amazing!!!!

Beautiful

Ladies and Gentleman, this is music.

Una gran banda que a mí parecer fue muy incomprendida. Buenas letras y unos grandes músicos.

Wie geil is das denn????????????

The best!!

amazing.

Sonzeira. 🤘🏻🇧🇷🎶

Hay muchas bandas que son como relojes super mega precisas y técnicas pero son frías y mecánicas, por otra parte Dredg tienen el lado super preciso y técnico, pero derrochando sentimiento y una calidez desbordante !!! Qué banda tan alucinante eran...

I love this Band

Uma pena eles terem acabado. Uma das bandas mais incríveis que já ouvi e esse show é um clássico da música mundial.

Очень интересная группа

1.45.14 of chills down my spine.

Just one of a very few bands where the most popular song is also my favorite (Bug Eyes)

When You Find Dredg You Found God in Them Talking Too You in Their Songs

Unique!

Is this performance available for sale in DVD? If so, what's the title of the product? THANKS! Love this band!

let's be honest, the concert starts at 59:38

21:00 oh wow, they are humans

1:32:50 Bug Eyes

Miss dredg…..goodbye masterpiece band

I feel you bro, I had the same face as you - 56:46 (men in the background)

Incredible show, but I can’t stand the editing of this video. Too frequent cuts and pans.

WOKE music, no good.

I only wish they had an actual live chorus doing the ending of, "the canyon behind her" can you imagine how beautiful that would be 😍

INCREDIBLE!!!

Incredible, I've been listening to Dredg since 1996 and I was able to meet Drew Roulette in NYC in a bathroom lololol I acted real silly - that dude is super chill, super talented, down to earth and I was able to take a picture with him outside. If you guys get a chance LISTEN to Stationary Transient -- one of my favorites

This is great
