  • WOW! Here's the holy grail baby!!! A full Mole Show film! Filmed October 1982, released on DVD in 2009 in a limited edition of 400 copies, this is one of the rarest Residents items ever released, with copies going for hundreds of dollars. It is notable for featuring the 'vanilla' mole show. The only other film of The Mole Show was filmed in Madrid in 1983. That show was modified specifically for television broadcast and did not feature Penn Jillette as the narrator. This show features the entirety of Mark Of The Mole performed, with Penn's rants! Wow! Not only that, but it is the first-ever performance of The Mole Show to feature the expansive sets and dancers the show would become known for. ENJOY!!!!

    I hate fucking RUclips censorship, but I love the fact that you can find diamonds like this on it.

    Hey I was there, maybe not this show since there were a couple of them, but I remember it. A group of people sat down in front of us before they started and said "Oh good, we missed the opening act, we're just in time for Wall Of Voodoo"...they were a little disappointed to find out that Wall of Voodoo WAS the opening act, and had no idea who The Residents were.

      That’s hilarious, both that those people got fooled into seeing a headliner they didn’t know existed and that WOV opened for The Residents 😂

    They played Perkin's Palace on Halloween after the Roxy shows. Wall of Voodoo opened with a killer set. Stood in line right behind Mark Mothersbaugh at the concession booth as people yelled out Devo lines. Good times.

      Yes, I was there and it was a great show. I didn't have a ticket but a young lady that worked there snuck me in for $20. I missed the first half of the Wall of Voodoo set. 😞

    I saw this one in Copenhagen in June, 1983. Motormouth Penn Jillette was all over the place, moving around in the theatre. This was the first of 6 shows I've seen during 40 years.

    I was at the October 30th show at the Roxy and I don't remember Penn's fabulous dance moves to Satisfaction. 🤔

    Apparently, the Uncle Sam Mole Show was also filmed but the full thing has never been released. We only have the audio recording and some bits of footage that were included on a VHS in 1984. That VHS mixes together footage from all 3 recorded shows.

    Man. I can't believe I have never heard of the residences. However, hearing this tells me that alot of bands and musicians I like were probably influenced by them.

      @@LFrench the album stuff was really cool, but as a experimental musician my self. It just felt very cobbled together. Like a “aah fuck it” attitude. But yeah no The Residents seem to be wayyyy more than just the music.

      As in the same show they did every night- the two other videos of the mole show are quite different from the regular shows
      the more common Spanish mole show video features a lot of irregularities, like a different narrator and a missing final confrontation...
      The VHS mole show also features the show re-ordered and shortened, with animations placed over.
