If the Pretenders don't get you moving, you don't have a pulse. Chrissie continues to be a wonderful artist and so interesting to hear during interviews. She and Martin Chambers are truly rock-n-roll legends. Her bass player and lead guitarist are excellent too. 👍👍👍👍👍
@@audiophileman7047 Martins sideburns are legendary. Chrissy sounds and looks the same the last 40 years. It's a tragedy how they lost a half of the band after the second album,speedball is a killer
At the time of this concert this beautiful lady was 66 years old she is truly amazing and what a voice. What a career so many fantastic songs and still working hard a new album and tour announced for 2024. Love you Chrissie.

Bravo enfin un concert de qualité ! Ça rend hommage aux artistes, Chrissie toujours aussi énergique et whaaa qu'elle est jolie ! On était tous amoureux d'elle dans les 80's et... je le suis toujours, une lady au top, voix, présence et charme. Bravo !
Il y a tant de concerts "volés" on tient un portable à bout de bras image floue qui danse et son écrasé... S'il vous plait, ne faites pas ça ! Il faut chercher parmi une dizaine de "concerts" pour en trouver un bon, qui respecte les artistes. Laissez le job aux pros, votre bel iphone ou autre ne fait pas de vous des champions ! Bravo Chrissie envoie les watts !
She’s from Akron, Ohio as are Devo! She worked as a waitress and was a fan of the British Invasion. So somehow she decides to pursue a career as a singer and songwriter and moves to London! I don’t know where she got the gumption to do it but she had the incredible voice which made it all possible. Plus she wrote good songs that fit her vocals perfectly. The rest is history after she put together the Pretenders and their brilliant debut album riding the Punk New Wave explosion that occurred in the late Seventies. The result was a hit album and headlined tours. Then Two original members died. She carriered on. And wrote more hits and kept going! The rest is history! HOF for sure!
Jim Kerr's Ex Wife realy Rocks. At 66 years of age back in 2017. Posting a comment in 2025. Wow, she still sounds the same when I recall her performing in my school days, in the 1980s. With her Christmas favourite of mine, being 2000 miles. Unfortunately never performed. Excellent live performance, Chrissie and your band. Outstanding performance. Well done 👏 Really enjoyed this, Chrissie ❤ Making me notice for sure. No one is like you. Your definitely Special Chrissie Hynde. And definitely got my attention !!!
One of the best concerts I went to was Pretender's and B-52’s in Portland Oregon. Christie Hinds open up the show and says to the crowd 10 years ago they would be opening up for me. Both shows were great.
I've had a 20 year crush on Chrissy since I first saw her. Maybe some day I'll tell her. Her magnificent voice hasn't changed a bit. She used to wear this black hat with glitter on it when she really got in the mood. I think I'd ask her to keep it on.
The Pretenders were probably the most exciting band to come along at the tail end of the 70s ( 1979). Great music from the start although the band was beset by tragedy, they continued with drummer Martin Chambers joining Chrissie Hynde as the two original members. The band is in top form at Austin City Limits, the best music show in the history of television.
I am also from Akron, Cuyahoga Falls and have followed Crissie from there. We were all trying to eecape NE Ohio because of rubber, steel and all factories closed and moved out devastating Ohio economy. Crissie moving to London had a relationship with Dave or Ray Davies of the Kinks which I'm sure set her carrear confidence wise
Wow, good job Chrissie for staying alive, love you and your tunes a lot. You got some good pipes. Very cool you got Martin playing drums. So sorry for your loss of the the band members early on. Your band mates here on bass and guitar, fantastic. Love the classic Pretenders songs. And I apologize for for hollering vulgar language at the Twin Cities show back in the 80's, I was a little high. Take care and rock on!

1980. That first album was so so important to me, my friends, my life. They took a big mis-step by releasing the EP BEFORE the second album. Talk of the Town was one of the gems , but because it was on the EP first , it took some of the lustre off LP number 2. By the time the 3rd LP came out - they lost me.
CHRISSIE HYNDE= U.S.A. ROYALTY FAN SINCE DAY 1# GREAT SONG WRITER!! READ HER BOOK📖 RECKLESS I SAW THE BAND AT THE MAYO IN JERSEY ON 4-2-2018.SHE EVEN SIGNED MY BOOK😃
You know, when she says balsam is the best rock drummer, one is inclined to think she was being serious. No one drummer is, but he really is incredibly good. It may be that he is consistently this impressive which makes gigging so much easier for a band. It's just a shame that every band isn't this tight playing live.
No se si vayas a traducir esto, fui a tu pagina y que encontre, eres la verdura en caldo (Es groseria alabandote) Buenas bandas,valio la pena encontrarte, gracias,.Saludos
Funny not a fan and just a listener of music. I had a Crissy thought the other day out of no where. And now this? It's like you tube read my mind somehow, never knew her like this? Nice music and voice too. I think I want her be with her now?
Great show, very tight together w/ the new band members. However - I don't think the anybody's mics for their vocals was set correctly - Way-y-y too low!! Chrissie's as well as the other guitarists. Too bad ☹
If the Pretenders don't get you moving, you don't have a pulse. Chrissie continues to be a wonderful artist and so interesting to hear during interviews. She and Martin Chambers are truly rock-n-roll legends. Her bass player and lead guitarist are excellent too. 👍👍👍👍👍
Saw them at the Capitol Theater in Passaic NJ in 1982? The ushers kept telling my friends and I to sit back in our seats.We couldn't do it.Sorry.

@@Semprini537 All drug abuse is a waste of time. Drugs rob your money, your health, and your soul. Sadly, The Pretenders learned this the hard way. 😢

Her voice is as clear and bright as when she was 20! Glad to see she's still rockin' it. 💙
These new band members are definitely doing their homework!👍🏻🎸
She is awesome. Got the chance to have a few with her back in the 1990s.
I fell in love with her in 1978 when I was 17. In 2024 I’m still in love.
Excellent! Chrissie still sounds amazing, and this lineup is fantastic (second only to the original four). Thanks for uploading.

Her autobiography, "Reckless" is a good read. I recommend it.
She's on backup vocals on Chris Speddings Hurt album 1977!

Your definitely Special Chrissie Hynde. And definitely got my attention !!!
I cant believe I never went to see them.
At 66 she looks and sounds great I love the pretenders
1983 favorite band. Drew the name on my notebooks when I was in school.
……up the neck brought back a few memories from early 80’s 🍻 cheers
Yes I like it she is rocking it out the band is great ❤😂

The Pretender's are definately Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees..
Absolutely wonderful
NO CONOZCO A NINGÚN ARTISTA QUE HAYA EVOLUCIONADO TAN POSITIVAMENTE Y EN TODOS LOS ASPECTOS COMO LA GRAN CHRISSIE HYNDE .
I will always love Chrissy for her kindness to my friend Rush…..
Awesome Band, Chrissie is a queen, Martin such a great Drummer and james and the bass player are amazing!
I am also from Akron, Cuyahoga Falls and have followed Crissie from there. We were all trying to eecape NE Ohio because of rubber, steel and all factories closed and moved out devastating Ohio economy.

I saw them at the Pinkpop Festival in June of ‘84. Had just turned 18. Great show, great memories!
She knows her lead guitarist, dedicates every 2nd to her.
And she echos that, mirrors it, back to him.
Excellent !!! Très bon live!!!! Que de souvenirs !!!
Never forget seeing em’….. we rocked the nite away Activated again. Kooooool video
One of kind voice & the band. > 👍🏻
I really enjoyed this video…. Unapologetically preformed 👤.
Hottest, bad ass , rocking chick in R&R…Great songwriting, great vocals, great players, and she’s The It Girl !
Not many bands formed in the late 70's have their original drummer. Martin Chambers still hittin' 'em hard!
I play drums, and I've always admired Martin.
But seeing this brings him to another level...superb drummer.
As for the band as a whole..fantastic.
That’s one band I’d go see!
She's the Best!!!
Simply, the Best!
Brilliant........James Walbourne, his Lordship 🔥
Such a voice.
FANTÁSTICO !! 💥🍀🍀🍀🍀💥
that sound... only the Pretenders
Thanks for uploading!
Love her.....middle of the road
Great band and performance ❤

Wow. Chrissie sounds exactly the same as she did in 1981.
The Pretenders..are 🔥💯
Don't get me wrong, but Don't Get Me Wrong was performance perfection.

Come on baby.

Unforgettable!

Ahh yes…Martin Balsam on drums. Incredible!
Maybe Martin Chambers?
@@jublaim Yes...exactly. Martin Balsam was an Academy Award-winning character actor who died over 30 years ago!
😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I agree to disagree for Blonde fuc&%_^/ing blows...

Dang me. I thought I seen everything even going back to Raul's and ClubFoot. How did I miss this???? Ain't going to lie, The Skunks still rule!!!
The Pretenders are fantastic!
Chrisy Hynde is amazing?
Smokin band !!!!!
I love this band. I'm not Pretending.

God Damn I love Chrissie.
Chrissy helped bring Rock originz (AMERICA... 1950z) to 2017... Hey oh way to go (actually) Chrissie!
51:04 I was never a fan of this band, but I agree with her here about MTV. After hearing and seeing this video my opinion of this band has changed.
WOW!
This magnificent woman. Love her and all those dudes making this exceptional. Glory be.
And a pedal steel guitar 🙂
I Love You
I said yes to this
October 31, 2024
Chrissie I still have a crush on you!
OHIO GIRL HERE!!!
Best
My favorite is the second album. They don't play that dark stuff no more
Precious
O My Goodness
Pretender,singular
Roughly at 42:10 Chrissie being herself. Audience member, "I love you so much!" Chrissie "This is not a time for Love"
🍀🍀🍀
Ma quanto sei bbona! 😍 Sophia Loren versione rock 🤘
The band sounds very good, and Chrissie sounds completely undimmed by the passage of time. She reminds me of a punk-ish Lucinda Williams.
chyssie hynde is like a female mick jagger in her stage persona which is cool to watch her interact with the audience
❤
I never understood why chrissy hind insisted on having her bangs cover those beautiful eyes. Read her book, very eye opening!!!
It adds a bit of mystery.
Hulk Hogan on drums. I like like.
I'd love to hear Chrissie more prominent in the mix. Although the instrumentals are good, she consistently gets a back seat position, imo.
Funny not a fan and just a listener of music. I had a Crissy thought the other day out of no where. And now this? It's like you tube read my mind somehow, never knew her like this? Nice music and voice too. I think I want her be with her now?
did not know pretenders had this in them cool
DOB!
#ThumbsUp> Pup > Ty4Post mister >
Je suppose que cela permet une meilleure prise de son sur la batterie, et un son moins présent sur la scène. Ça pète toujours fort la batterie !!
Goog stuff she says we are punk
Just curious... the drummer seems to be playing behind a plexiglass screen... is there a reason for that ?
Reduces noise on stage. Mainly for the players on the stage.
@@paulwortman483 Thanks for the reply.
I think on a small stage you want to limit interference between instruments. The audio engineer can control the mix more precisely.
In case somebody throws tomatoes or something....
It's called a sound garden.
Great show, very tight together w/ the new band members. However - I don't think the anybody's mics for their vocals was set correctly - Way-y-y too low!! Chrissie's as well as the other guitarists. Too bad ☹
Origial drummer makes such a diff.
Why is the drummer behind glass or plastic?
So he can hear HIS monitor only and also blocks the sound from bass and guitar amps.
Great show, except for the dork at the end!
