Doctor J Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 The expanded Live at Leeds reissues had a lot of stage chat from Townshend and Moon which was quite amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skankdelvar Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Woodstock During the Who's performance at Woodstock the celebrated hippie activist Abbie Hoffman invades the stage between songs and grabs Townshend's vocal mike to issue a call for protest : Hoffman angrily: I think this is a pile of sh_t! While John Sinclair rots in prison... Townshend: F__k off! (Hits Hoffman with his guitar, toppling the activist into the audience) Townshend: F__k off my f__king stage! (Crowd roars approval ) Townshend (sarcastically): I can dig it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dankology Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Joy Divison - Preston 1980: in the midst of an incredibly intense performance fired up by equipment failures, someone grabs the mic: "Anyone from Burnley - the coach leaves in 10 minutes" At another point you hear Barney tell the soundman "everything's fukcing bust so everything's going through the bass amp"... I do like to think about the band's more humourless fans trying to discern the poetry and mystery in all this. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meterman Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Slaughter And The Dogs - “Live Slaughter Rabid Dogs” has some great onstage banter in between the songs. It was recorded really roughly at what sounds like a working men’s club in Manchester in 1977 and the audience clearly weren’t entirely on the band’s side. The crowd were obviously chucking pints at the band as you hear Wayne Barrett and co saying stuff like “Hey! Stop throwin’ the fookin’ glasses will yer!” or, sarcastically, “It’s just cost you a pound to throw that glass” followed by someone else in the band coming back with “£1.25 it is, Howard”. I’m surprised I can still remember it, when I routinely forget what I went to the shops for or where my keys are, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
