LIVE AT
LIVE PEPPERMINT LOUNGE
NEW YORK CITY

New York, the Big Apple, Skyscrapers, Yellow taxis, Steaming drains??..
A steaming band. Well we were after the show.

Five gigs into the bands' now lengthy career. A fixed camera captures what, as I can only remember, ( as I haven't seen the vid myself ) a very nervous yet exuberant debut in the USA, in true club monitoring style.

Band “We need a transformer to plug our gear into.”

Bemused conscript roadie from Dunfermline.
“No f****** told me.”

Manager. “Oh shit.”

Supporting the Members and Darlene Love , with the classic collapsing of the drum riser, this vid is priceless archive material. It didn't capture
the piss up after though.

Aah memories !
