Okay so much is happening in this video, I just want to say now that I am so distracted by whatever is happening with this woman with a hand puppet. ANYWAY, Devin was great, so much dynamic range and his slide from one part of his voice to another is really cool to listen to. I would love to hear some more from him so let me know in the comments what you want to hear next.

I'm gonna add to this peer pressure here. EMGtv Kingdom. My God what a performance.

The hand puppet was Ziltoid the Omniscient - the title of one of his albums. The original puppet creation had the remains of Devin's own "snot encrusted" dreds. Look up "Devin Townsend skullet" to see Devin's own combination of balding and long hair.

I agree with the others that his EMGtv performance of Kingdom is amazing. I think that you calling yourself a theatre kid might mean that you like his performance of Why from his quarantine fundraiser even more. Both performances are solo with recorded music and voices behind him. Both of them are must see performances if you liked Deadhead. Here's a link to Why - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsd4ZkFVOHY

Oh yeah he's been at it for a lil' bit.. He was discovered by Steve Vai in the nineties and went on to be his lead vocalist for an album/tour. His screams are like no-one else's, especially combined with his awesome clean singing. Glad you appreciate his style too! He's also super chill and funny, which you'll see if you react to more of his stuff as I hope you will ;)

Devin has such a great voice, always had, even back to his first professional job as the lead singer for Steve Vai’s band (yes I am that old as to have seen them!). His scream is amazing as well. Other will recommend the EMGTV video, personally I would recommend one of his duets with Anneke, preferably live.
Love you kookiness as always Charis 😉💜. Perhaps the lady is implying the baby is Devin’s, and that is why love is a bitch?!

Speaking of trolling. Devin Townsend is the troll-meister! And we love him for it.

If you love crowd interaction, PLEASE like...for the love of God...watch his Kingdom EMGTV performance. It's a solo performance but his voice and energy are off the friggin hook in that video💯💯💯

Now you need to do the song "Grace." It'll literally take you to church.

i was in the front row of a small club show he did and at the end he came out and gave everyone a high five but there was no barricade where i was standing so he just gave me a hug

That "Puppet" is 'Ziltoid The Omniscient' is a character created by Devin and it also the title of his 10th album which is a concept album about an extraterrestrial being named Ziltoid from the planet Ziltoidia 9.

@wolverine669 4 years ago

Devin is an absolutely amazing entertainer, composer, musician...... you name it!

@hansikursch484 4 years ago

Oh Devin's got projects! You just name a genre lol. From death metal to country to New age, he's got 'em all!

@mincentprice1041 4 years ago

Welcome to a whole new world with Devin. As a huge fan, there's over 30 albums intertwined with genre bending music. In other words, you might not like everything. But there's a ton of gold that grabs you. As he matured his voice only got better, and every performance more epic than the last. He's the one of the only artists that always takes it up a notch live. As an old dude living in constant severe pain - I discovered Devin and his music and spoken words are one of the biggest blessings in my life. And I find that incredible Cheers

You just saw Dev for the first time I take it?
He is a very diverse and crazy good singer/guitarrist/composer/producer/human being.

You just saw a fraction of it.

I recommend ”Vampira” with Devin Townsend Band. You will laugh and be in awe at the same time. Its a halloween song but just go!

Cheers!

@ThrillhoWiggum 4 years ago

Thank you, so very very much! I knew you'd enjoy his vocals. He's been around since the '90s and he does a lot of clean with fry scream type stuff. Wait until you hear Higher by him with Anneke Van Giersbergen live 2017. Again, thanks

So first of all, 4:26 was the moment you made me click "subscribe" because I have watched this performance and reactions to it many times and you are the FIRST person I've seen to point that out. I hadn't even noticed it yet!

6:51 You looked a little confused. He was poking fun at the audience, they were all claping at different times and he said. "Love's a bitch for sure, but if any point in time you feel like it you know, pick a tempo"
