I saw this show,I worked at the Stouffer LAX Hotel right behind were they filmed this show. I remember wondering how the Roxy Music classic “If there was something”,only Bowie could pull that song off,other then Ferry.
I remember when this concert was broadcasted on ABC. I thought it very odd buts very cool for Tin Machine to pick an airport runway to do a concert. I was wondering what they were trying to say doing so? "Our music is louder and more industrial than jets?? LOLOL I was disappointed that they didn't pick any of their hits and I was sort of bored with their set. Still a very cool band and great addition to Bowie's catalog.
I've been a huge fan of Bowie since October 1972, when I was a very young lad. I followed his career from beginning to end and shed many, many tears in the first two years after his death. Loved all of his albums, though I initially thought Lodger was a dry heave (I've since come to both enjoy and respect the album) and thought Tonight and Never Let Me Down were mostly tripe, though there were a few songs I enjoyed. Starting with Black Tie White Noise, I enjoyed all of his releases, particularly 1.Outside and Blackstar, both of whom I rank among his best work. Tin Machine, on the other hand, sounded largely like vomit meets metal, though I enjoy a few of their songs. This concert here was just garbage. Talented musicians, all of them, but the music is SHIT. Yeah, it predated grunge, fine. What's missing in the music is anything resembling MELODY. I can appreciate that Tin Machine helped Bowie to reconnect with his muse, sort of in the same way The Man Who Sold the World album was a step toward David finding his songwriting voice, his style, his sense of self, but the songs played in this set are the sort of songs one listens to once.
I saw them at the Palladium. Perfect like a record. Insane.

Did David explain what the band was or no,
Soupy Sales son on bass. Tony Sales. There’s some trivia for ya.
Sons - The drummer is Hunt Sales.
I _think_ there is a very brief cameo of Soupy Sales "rocking out" at the 19:57 time-counter mark.

Maybe you're not ready yet for this
Tin Machine are great and underrated
You just sound like an elitist snob
So you love Outside but think that Tin Machine hasn't melodies. Interesting. Just wow.
