[malena]

[wrinkleneckbass]

I love this band and this song. Saffron is still so beautiful and animated and always smiling.

Saffron performed brilliantly despite an out of tune guitar - she is such a trooper. Techy issues are hideous in a live performance - I know, I've had sh*tty monitors giving no foldback at all. But, you just crack on with it! Well done Republica - you rocked.

Hi, Conor here, the drummer from
Republica...just been reading the comments - ouch!!

To be fair, we were having an off day, in fact probably one of our worst! We had a whole heap of technical nightmares on stage that day: In-ear monitors failed, drum heads broke, guitars going horrendously out of tune, the laptop was playing up. Everything just gave up for no reason!

Give us a break and go and watch some of our other performances on YouTube before you pass judgement. We'll listen to your criticisms when you've had a platinum selling album, and gone to No. 1 in 14 different countries :-)

Peace! X

Looks like the drummer for Republica deleted his arsey comment. Where he pretty much said we weren’t entitled to criticise this performance because we’d never penned a hit like Ready To Go. Only to then be called out by everyone because he wasn’t even in the band at the time the song was released.

2:55 "Honey... the fuck are you doing?"

[RefereeDahmer]

Speaking from the perspective of a touring band, shit happens. Guitars go out (especially at outdoor shows and with drop tuning). There's many examples of Republica absolutely kicking ass on YouTube. There are posts of my own band that I'm not proud of (and would literally pay to have removed) but that's life in social media!!
I love this band and would never be deterred from seeing them based on 1 off day!
Love to all of you.

[Seventeen_Seconds]

I don’t know why but there’s something about this song that I love

[knifeforkandaspoon]

Guitarist is horrible. Guitar is out of tune. Baby, he's not ready to go!

[SuperJBrowne]

Strange, in the chorus they sound in tune, maybe they were in drop D the previous song and didn't get back to pitch?

[bizzarepop]

I think the guitar guy lost his ears.. He is playing wrong riff, and his back vocals are from totaly different tones...But Saffron is always awesome!

[freddiehandley]

wheres the bassist and who IS PLAYING THE SOLO

[jimmyr]

Want to hear a GOOD live performance of this song? Search their Conan O'Brien appearance from the 1997. They kicked ass in that one.

[maxxmann]

Freaking awesome. Thanks for this FestivoTV.

I am not a professional musician but I do have an understanding. I only discovered this Band 2 years ago. It started with Ready to Go and then I listen to the other tracks on YouTube. Excellent band even though you joined later Connor, you were chosen for an ability that Republica noticed. Good work.

[DelDuio]

Guitarist: Imma sabotage this in 3, 2..

[markgreet]

Wow she's is amazing looking great band and decent songs, very underrated.
