Summer 1989,London.....heard Summerland being played loud and live in a small pub. I went inside and it was Kings X playing a low key "warm up gig" a few hours before their big gig gt the Astoria theatre. I had a chat with the guys and they were the most humble decent guys you could meet. I ran the entire length of Oxford Street to get tickets for the Astoria gig. Saw them twice in one day.......those were the days!!!😊
Those of Us That KNOW....Just KNOW... How FUCKING GREAT they are !!!!!! STILL TO THIS DAY... I first caught them when GRETCHEN came out ... I Was Totally MINDBLOWN And Became A fan FOR LIFE..
I caught their NOLA show a few weeks ago. First time was in NOLA back in 1990. I actually cried for about the first 10 minutes. Tears of joy for sure. Love these boys forever!
I grew up in a loving 2 parent Christian home with my 4 siblings. On Sunday morning as we prepared for church my Father played a record on the stereo by a group called "Wings Over Jordan". Along with the other songs was a song titled "Over My Head", the song stayed with me all my life. Later in life I heard King's X song also titled "Over My Head", it stirred my spirit, and I've been a fan ever since. Throughout my life GOD has placed music on my spirit that stirred it/me. Please take the time to listen to Wings Over Jordan song "Over My Head", maybe it will touch your spirit too. In these trying times that we live in we need GOD and a rejuvenation of our spirit. Praise GOD, please open your heart, your mind and your spirit to HIM, HE will bless you for an eternity. GOD is good and HIS Mercy endures forever...forever...forever...
Thanks for posting. I Iove this band, like others here, for 30+ years. Always find myself turning volume higher and higher while driving. And smiling to the harmonies. Again, thanks for doing this.
It’s always a treat to see them perform ‘We Were Born To Be Loved’. They obviously have a blast playing it. It’s cool to see Ty bring his Les Paul out (changing things up a bit). I saw them out here in Las Vegas 6 years ago. What a great show that was! Thanks for capturing this one.
I wonder how they feel playing "King" now that they're non-believers? That's got to be a stretch emotionally. Kudos to them for playing it for the fan who made the request. When these guys woke up from their indoctrination, that was the greatest leap of faith they ever took and the music they made afterwards on Dogman was absolutely mind blowing and innovative.
I dig Doug's bass tone. Distorted and made even richer due to his use of the 12-string bass. Ty's chords are like six-string cheesecake. Jerry is spot-on like a metronome. All three sing and blend in a way to add some sweetness to the thick heaviness swirling all around. Add the love of all things Beatlesque for a glorious noise.
Dug's voice is sounding good. Tour footage from the last few years has sounded pretty rough, but he's definitely still got enough left to pull off a King's X show.
reminds me of that Same sound that brad Givens had with his 12 string bass, in wrathchild america. Kings X rules. That looks like it's more than 12 string.I could be wrong.
I love that song Juniors Gone Wild - I have it on a Movie Soundtrack CD. Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, but it is not on Spotify. It is always greyed out. Maybe a fight over who should be getting royalties and what not. Sucks because that is my general way of jamming out on tunes in my car these days.
that other lil band from texas... or wherever, you know what i mean. longtime fan, dropped from my radar. happy your touring. drummer was a bit on the fast side, miss a bit of the old heavyness. great whatsoever. thx for sharing!
I have listened to their music for 30 years. The music that only they can make. Big fan from Japan.
Bought "Out Of The Silent Planet" when the writers of Kerrang had it as their album of the year back in '88.

Most underrated band ever. Saw them in Columbia SC in 1992. They hung out with the audience after the show. Insanely talented and genuine dudes.

I'm jealous. I live in Las Vegas, Nevada, and wish they would play out here.
I would have loved to have been there for this!
Dang it! I was listening to Ty's guitar solo and my face melted!!
I was at this show with my 12 year old son who is their newest and maybe almost youngest fan. Thanks so much for sharing this.
The neXt generation

Doug is 73 here.
So old!

Seen them in the late 80 s with my brother at Uc Davis in California with Living colour badass concert
Ty sounds amazing. I might have to get one of these Orange Crush amps.
And he has some extremely long arms perfect for playing that big old bass.
A power trio ! Love them !
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hell yess..Aloha from Hawai'i!! Its been to long!!
Great band! Really talented! Thanks!
Fan since 1992 and still

So excited to see this, love KX!
So glad King's X still around, saw m at least 5 tines n early 90 's,great FN sound
Dug rocking his 12 string, such a cool tone! The only band I have seen more than them is Rush!!!
Fantastic band 👍🤘🤘
The tone on that bass is insane. Also on the guitar and drums. Lol.
Love the crowd reaction at the end.
Come to seattle, the grunge players want to see you!

Esoerando que algún día visiten Puerto Rico.
Anyone have any lists of all the Kingscliff concerts 🎉❤😢😮😅😊

Saw them in 1991 and 1996. I feel like their material (especially the lyrics) have gone down over the years, but last album was pretty good overall.
I cannot imagine Dug playing anything but those basses. His arms are too long for the steinbergers! LOL!

The opening band was Sound & Shape, I believe from Nashville, Tennessee.
Escribiendo otro de mis Cuentos Cortos... MUSICA de fondo... Gracias.
If U really do Believe...
Thats a lot of dudes and like 3 women in that audience....
Stop in Ohio again!
I love this band . But do they know when its time to end a song? Jeez
