New BAD footage from the Tube in 1986

Post by Heston »

I obtained this via a friend from the master reel, it was never aired at the time...

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Nice! What is that guitar Mick is playing? I don't remember seeing it before (but that might be old age)

Got to admit, I was a bit confused when Mick started burning paper - I thought he'd forgotten the lyrics and was getting a sneaky look.

Were A Party, E=MC2 and Medicine Show all the songs they played on The Tube?

It's the Roland Dalek's Handbag.

Yeah, looks like those were the three songs played. Only the latter two were aired.

Thanks for uploading Hes!
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Mick's white duster from that period makes me wonder whether he remembered to turn off the bunsen burners in the lab before heading to the gig.

I'm on the hunt now for their performance on Get Fresh in 1986. Two songs but they were probably a lip-synch.

Yes mate but it is MP4 and the quality is no better than what we have already. I can upload them if you want though?

Wow, the arrangement is really different on this, a really nice dub-style version.

Yes mate if you could. Any copies I had of it are a bit ropey now

Do you want the full show? Will save me chopping.

I'm sure I've seen that. It'll be on You Tube somewhere.
