DONNIE Vie was the band. His songwriting and lyrics, guitar, melodies are 2nd to none. Donnie, we Love You my Brother. The King of Power Pop. Donnie is in music for all the right reasons. He is a Class A songwriter, lyricist, and Vocalist. If I have a hero, he is it. Peacedog Loves You. I've driven from Tampa, FL to Chicago, IL many times to experience his greatness. Always worth the trip. Thank You Donnie.❤☮😊😋🥂🎶🤪🍷
Everything Perfect!!! Vocals, instruments, Looks, Style and Attitude. Sadly, no Derek on this video Fly High Baby! No Vik either but still lovely. Thanks for this recording, LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Rest easy Ricky P.
Probably because they werent. They were good but there were many better. Did they deserve a better break,,,, sure but much of their lack of "catching on" was their own fault.
i always thought EZN should have done a 20-30 date acoustic tour. 200 seat venues and it would have been amazing. i remember having this footage about 20 yrs ago on a bootleg tape. but this quality is better
Yes Derek had a Dr Note hehe ......No Doubt but there talent was was what counts here , we all have our own demons but there music stands the test of time 30 + years of many many incredable songs yes Donnie Vie is sorely underrated as a frontman and singer ,songwriter and composer thru all there line up changes RIP Derek Frigo RIP Ricky Parent
Along with Cheap Trick, the best band ever Donnie Vie is an absolute genius I know people throw that term around easy these daze, but the songs he’s written Just incredible They sound like The Beatles here more than ever

@@xxxuntoxicatedxxx2002 i'm sure that was a lie. i'm sure they were not speaking the truth but that is their business. just look at the grin Donnie has when he says that. very, very fishy
The vocals are amazing. For such a growly, gritty speaking voice, Chip has a smooth vocal ability. He's a great bassist, as well. The bass parts on "Paraphernalia" are astounding :). This performance is lovely. They have such great humor. I cried. It was a poignant choice of songs dammit! Beautiful tho.

I love this music SO much. Dayum, Donnie can sing like an angel.
Hauntingly beautiful.
Donnie 🤩
r.i.p...Mr. Kane Engler..who was engineering the entire show this particular day..One of Chicago's Best Soundmen...incredibly nice guy too
Kane was a dear friend of ours and is greatly missed. To this day some of his great recordings are still on our record players, computers, iPods, etc.

Now I live my life! Of could have beens!! Until new life BEGINS
Best band of the 80s -90s but were never recognized as such
Probably because they werent. They were good but there were many better.
Did they deserve a better break,,,, sure but much of their lack of "catching on" was their own fault.
@@JWTiny How was it their own fult? Did the record company not sabotage their art/ ideas? or what ?
Facts
@@JWTinyThe music is the only thing that matters. That will last forever. It did and still does sound beautiful ❤
''You've Got To Hide Your Love Away'' - Best cover EVER! That's another underrated band.
this band should be higher than it was
I think I even preferred them when they went all acoustic. This set is amazing. I love everything about this!

Any big Beatles fan would love these guys. They're in that league.

Incredible
Magic. Thank you for sharing.
Great set, they sound great!
best band glam sleazy of 80s-90s
I dont think its glam is it.. certainly not sleaze, i think its the "1990s" if that makes any sense
@@Principessa180 80’s glam band for sure. Just look at the drum-kit! But for sure one of the more serious rock bands of the late 80’s glam scene.
Very nice -Ricky and you guys !!!
R.I.P Parent. R.I.P Frigo.
Class! Great band :-)
Awesome!
i think i like them even more now than i did back then, audio beat the video by about 3 seconds.

Who added the additional reverb its horrible.
Donnie is an incredible unique singer & lyricst.
That would have been their manager and sound guy at the time.
I am really impressed about how good they are! I’ll admit I like New Thing and never expected to be anymore than that song. Pleasant surprise.
Where's Derek..??
They said he was sick
Out smoking 🚬
Wonder where Frigo was cause he was still in the band in 1993 :-/
David Stewart they said he was in the hospital during this performance. You should watch the whole thing, it is really nice.

Pretty brave for a rock band to do an anti-abortion song (first song).
The vocals are amazing. For such a growly, gritty speaking voice, Chip has a smooth vocal ability. He's a great bassist, as well. The bass parts on "Paraphernalia" are astounding :).
