the way steve freezes at 3:05 when he sees the camera is so funny, he really said 🧍♂️
wait that's actually so funny, steve i'm so sorry 💀
It was always good to see Jim Rockford rockn it
He glitched into his idle position
Danny Elfman: quite possibly the most expressive, dramatic singing voice in all of rock n roll.
How did he ever find this style of singing and cadence of vocabulary? It’s just brilliant. No one has ever come close to the brilliance of his vocal mastery.
eppure lui non si considera un bravo cantante...
His influences are Dr. Seuss and Edward Gorey.
Andy Partridge.
@@beandipcartography Yes!
Now i see his name on movie credits making all the music, not songs, .....on movies like the night before Christmas or movies like those. Guys crazy!
The world needs more Oingo Boingo concerts. Good stuff.
Agreed! They were so good and so much fun!
They'll find it if they dig enough....
Well im sorry to say but danny elfman quit for a reason
The closest I’m likely to get is The Nightmare Before Christmas live this month. Maybe he’ll play Dead Man’s Party afterward.
That’s what Burt Bacharach was getting at.
I AM SURE OF IT.
End of discussion
Johnny Vatos is is one of the great unsung drummers out there
Orale!!!!
I was lucky to see Oingo Boingo at the L.A. Street scene one year in the early 80’s. I was just a teenager growing up in Los Angeles. I loved it!
I was a wee child in the Phoenix area. My sister smuggled me into a couple of concerts, it totally blew my mind. Exposed me to a culture that vanished just a few years later when the internet ruined everything.
It's so great that all this old footage is finally making it online. I went both years and they were the parties of a lifetime and it's always hard to explain how good it all was. I still think every high school music program in America should be modeled after obtaining the Oingo sound.
I was also there man,sure brings back some great memories....
Likewise! I saw them ( like you ‘82, ‘83 ) and around town. Such a great live band!
Made both myself.
...I was there ! Both, Labor Day weekend, then 6 months later Memorial Day weekend. Went to all 3 days both times. What a blast & you know what? Danny Elfman is a freakin genius !
The only reason i pay for youtube
I was there on the first day of this concert, and I had such a blast with my friends. The crowd was huge, and tried to make towards the stage, but didn't make it. I remember INXS, Wall of Voo Doo, Motels, Flock of Seagulls, Stray Cats, The Clash, and Men at Work and of course, Oingo Boingo all playing their sets. It was a great day of music. Forty 40 years later, I'm still listening to most of these bands.
🤗🤗
❤️
I got there early with my friends and we were right up front in the dirt, until they turned on the water sprayers and then we were in the mud……so be glad you were back further where there was some grass! We totally were not expecting the sprayers but it did help keep people from getting over heated since as I recall it was well over 100 degrees in the daytime. We were drinking and smoking all day and I never had to even go pee because I was likely so dehydrated from the heat. It was a great festival!
I was right there with you for all of it live!
I r recall the lineup as being Gang of Four, English Beat, Oingo Boingo, B52s,Talking Heads, the Police , i think in that order but i got there late because we were being followed by some teeny bopper bimbos from Huntigton Beach and we had to ditch them
the fact that dannys biceps are practically bulging out of his tshirt. well... ive got to be going..
I love how Johnny Vatos was lit wearing a tank top with his name on it lol
Thats really funny lmao just realized that
Steve Bartek is one of my favorite guitarists.
YES! HAH! I was JUST Thinking what an UNSUNG Guitarist he is! DEFINITELY AWESOME and AMAZING!
Yep, me too. One of the most unsung great guitarists ever.
He is quite amazing, so underappreciated! He has axe mastery that is exhibited here especially in this performance
If there's anyone to learn guitar from it's him
and I indirectly remastered his talents in a different way but still
He is extraordinarily under-rated, because he played in a band that didn't utilize a lot of lead guitar. It's on display in this video. His tapping technique at 9:30 shows a touch that some of the best shredders would envy.
My only issue with his technique is that he plays with the guitar up in his armpit, which is the signature of someone who prefers to play sitting down, which is not "performance" technique.
I recently rediscovered these guys. Wow! Danny Elfman is the definition of musical genius.
I was fortunate enough to go to both US Festivals, because my cousin, Sam Phipps, the middle sax player got me passes for both years.
Wait, Sluggo is your cousin. You are one lucky individual.
Sluggo is one badass horn player. His solo on 'Islands' is amazing.
Can you introduce me to Sluggo? He's probably my favorite member next to Danny and Avila
Idk why but something about clean-cut, buff Danny makes me feel things 😌❤️
Have you seen what he looks like now? He's 70, and he is totally jacked, super-muscular and ripped. He looks like a 40 year old health nut, and he's 70.
@@fruitiusmaximus925 I've seen him live twice I KNOW how buff he still looks, trust me 😅
I would give everything to go back on the past and be there
Truly the most underrated band of that decade!
Such an amazing band. One of the few who could easily play a show twice this long and it would still be nothing but bangers.
The could have headlined day 1. That’s how good they were
@@peterrimel8170 For sure. Everything Danny Elfman touches is gold. It's pretty wild when you look at everything he's been involved with and the number of those projects being huge successes.
I saw them play a set in Mesa, AZ in 1985 that was about two hours long. It's the second-longest set I've seen a headliner play, second only to Nirvana... if Kurt wasn't sick from dope, he would play every d@mn song that he knew.
I was at this show. 11 yrs old ✌🏻🖤
Awesome 😎 it was hot that day. U2, David Bowie, and my All time fav. Oingo Boingo
Love never Fails 💖
I never thought being at US Festival in '83 that I would now be a part of history.
This needs a fucking remaster - PRONTO!!!
Amazing to see the full show finally!
I was so fortunate to see Oingo a few times in the early 80's. There has never been a band like them, before or since. Unique by the true definition, one of a kind, period. They kinda lost me around Dead Man's Party, but Only A Lad and Nothing to Fear are still two of my fave albums of all time.
Been a huge Oingo Boingo fan since I first heard their nothing to fear album in 82. The 1st song, grey matter blew me away. Never seen them play live so this is great.
Just wandering how we're introduced to the album?
@@melovemusic69growing up in the 70's I was a diehard Zeppelin/Rush/UFO, ect.. fan but I was slowly getting into the new wave seen at the time (1980 and on) and I believe a friend from cooking school had the cassette tape and I was hooked.
I was a 17 year old girl. Went to the US festival with a neighbor boy. He tells me on the way to the concert that his parents said he could not go to the concert, so he told then we were going to the beach. Said we could only stay for a couple of hours. I said that I refuse to leave until at least Oingo Boingo plays. Never went out with that boy again!
Did you enjoy the US festival?
That was you???? you still owe me for the ticket...
You said you'd give me poon and I never got it...
At the very beginning,
the fella talking with Danny Elfman is
Ian Copeland (RIP),
the booking agent from FBI
(Frontier Booking International),
brother of Miles (IRS Records)
and Stewart (drummer of The Police).
@David Murphy Nice! Definitely a cool cat.
Did you by chance get a mention in the band roster at the end of his autobiography?
Stewart wrote the music for the Spyro games and the Amanda Show.
Bartek, man he was awesome!
Still is.
Danny and the Boyz were unbelievable. Wish I would have discovered them back in 1980 but I had no one to introduce them to my young 10 year old ears.
I was lucky enough to see them live to many times to count it was amazing!!!🔥🔥🔥I'm a bit older but still love the music!!!
My uncle introduced me to serious stuff for a kid, his acid rock records, the kinks the tubes vile lyrics so in return I made him take me to this show he did it but only because they opened for the Police and I believe that’s when we decided every concert we could get to across the bridges of rock genre. We grooved together I remember when my boyfriend went to a show for a band called The BackDoors they played The Doors music of course but my uncle said hey you guys wanna go up and dance. Being teenagers this was odd because he’s not your friend even if he sells you or some came up missing. I really had some great times with my uncle, after that show I got up and danced with him for years..I love that man..thank you for giving me something to get through those years without having to say anything he’d break out the records and play the very song you needed & the lyrics to read and it’s healing because my uncle couldn’t show that he loved me he couldn’t say it. His heart was big enough to realize it and to make sure I was okay & “listen to this song” he’d say. if I cried he gave me my space and when he’d come back in the room he’d grab a record that made you wanna dance. ❤❤❤
I was 15 when "Good For Your Soul" came into my hands and although I had a seldom chance or two to see them, I was always alone or something else would regretfully interfere with my chance to be part of historical night(S) of Oingo Boingo musical masterpiece excellence! Oh, craps on all those damn'D missed gold-filled opportunities that this fallen World presents to you at untimely spots. . . . . . .
I was there ... This day was my 21st birthday and what a day it was. In fact, right about this time I was in the beer garden awash in free suds and arm in arm with two of the most beautiful girls in the entire place
Why wouldn’t you be trying to make your way to the front and or watching them?
Awwwwwsome
i love steves performance :] hes such an amazing guitarist
I absolutely adore Johnny's smile!
I've been to many amazing concerts in the past 22 years (born in 87) and I'd honestly trade them all to have been here. I can't get enough!! 🤩💃❤️
What an amazingly impressive live band. Better than studio!
Best live band EVER … 🤩
When I workout and feel unmotivated I think about this concert and Danny's biceps and everything gets good and im motivated again
To experience a live Boingo show was like being infused with instant primordial elation at just being alive and in that moment. Whatever drugs you might be on would be counteracted by an ecstatic natural high that is unachievable chemically. I was fortunate enough to see them several times in the early 80s, including this show, they never disappointed and always left the crowd in awe of their uncompromising energy. It's of no surprise to me that Danny Elfman went on to reach the heights that he achieved.
One of the best bands ever. The album Nothing to Fear is on my top 10 list
I was at the 1983 Us Festival. Witnessing the birth of The American Festival (as we now know them), was perfect. Thxoxo Steve Wozniak for not minding you lost a cool mil or 2.
The artists say you paid them handsomely... ✌🏼
Glad I was there for both 1982/1983 festivals!
Tour de force performance! Danny Elfman has a triple black-belt in music. He's mastered just about everything there is in the genre.
Drummer playing at those tempos is amazing
That synth part of Grey Matter instantly transports me to the 80s
I grew up in Eastern Iowa and back in 1981 a family moved from Huntington Beach, CA they had 2 sons, one my age and he introduced me to the strangest band I've ever heard. Only a Lad became my best newest song. From there I was hooked! Thanks to Robert and Chip Evans
They had to hear them on KROQ. I was so lucky to grow up in Southern California in the '80's. I saw Boingo 3 different times. They were amazing!
37:02 why would he do that
Guess the kiss was implied elsewhere.
Check out the fancy footwork from the guitarist at 29:12 !
I could watch that on a loop for hours !
Reminds me of Dan ackeroyd from the "blues brothers"
did they really just start with the Cry Of The Vatos 💀
I remember that Hot 🔥 day, what an amazing Talent Show 😎 U2 to Bowie. Oingo Boingo is the best Always! What Great Footage 😜
Love never Fails 💖
Steve's playing a J.B. Player Mercury between Grey Matter on through Violent Love. As far as I'm able to tell, production figures for that guitar were in the single digits, possibly even countable on one hand.
I like the look that Steve Bartek was going for
Steve bartek Johnny vatos amazing
This is amazing thank you.... I've seen Boingo so many times back in the day and these guys are true musicians I don't care what anyone says and what a performance in the heat🔥🔥🔥 no pun intended..lmao!!!
steve has such an interesting way of playing guitar and i really don't think the band would sound the same without him
Early 80's defined. Great stuff!!
Thank you for sharing. Danny total genius, decades ahead of everything! Fav male voice along with David G | Depeche Mode ❤️❤️❤️❤️
If a big pot of hot, black coffee could transform itself into a band it would be like this.
Hot black coffee with a load of sugar 🤪
Wow! Horns, musicians who kill it live, interesting and original musical composition and lyrics. Making the present look pretty bad, although I think there is always good music at any time, you just need to find it. And now it's really hard to find. Been a fan since 1982 of Boingo.
Steve Barteck is such an incredible guitarist…would of never though of him and Dwane Dennison from Jesus Lizard kinda reminding me of each other but they do from this footage.
Man, they are sooo tight! Wonderful shit.
The fact that they put on such a high tempo set list on this incredibly hot day is amazing. Kudos to them for killin it! Also dang do you have a permit for those guns Danny?
Word
primordial new wave
Finally, live video with Hatch and Gibbs! Was so bummed how much the sound and energy changed after they left. Thank you so much for uploading!
have you heard zuma ii then? that's where the two moved after boingo
@@tstevens416 I have, not a giant fan. Felt like both projects got more pop focused than the original.
Holy Moly! I was just a young teen when these guys came out. I haven't seen anything live in many many many years. I remember when I saw the movie Batchlor Party with young Tom Hanks in 1984. Lets not forget one of faves movies in the 80's Sixteen Candles and let's not forget Fast Times at Ridgemont Hight! I would have hated the production in those days. What no in ears?? Ha! Thanks for the upload. Brings back many memories.
Instant transport back 4 decades ago - I also attended both US Festivals - it was only later that Danny collaborated with "Deadman's Party" in Tim Burton's imaginative musical movie Beetlejuice, Theatrical story lyrics and singer songwriter artistry ala Todd Rundgren, Peter Gabriel, Ray Davies, Gary Booker, Ray Charles, Linda Rondstadt and so many more.
Amazing performance! It was so hot you have no idea I was there hehe!
I love Danny so much
Ain't this the life ohhhhh
40 years ago this weekend.
I was discharged from the Navy 2 days before I went to this show.
USN #1! I entered the Navy in June of 1983.
Thank you for your service! My dad served aboard USS WASP! Go Navy!
Absolutely fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
their music sounds exactly like their band name
Best band ever!! Fucking love them!
THANK YOU FOR THIS
I don’t understand why Danny Elfman didn’t keep doing Oingo Boingo. I can’t see how film music would exorcise this awesome live music bug he has.
It's mostly because he spent years doing these shows without hearing protection and now he's a bit hard of hearing, unfortunately.
That’s why he sings the Nightmare Before Christmas show now.
He also got tired of performing the same songs over and over again.
great band.great show
Saw them at Sports Arena in Diego, great concert
Thanks for uploading this, was looking for it this past week.
Hey man I love your channel, you’re a legend in the Bully community! As a fellow boingo and bully fan, doesn’t the intro to Dead or Alive sound like Defender of the Castle or just the soundtrack in general?
@@dim1878 Thanks man! To be honest I didn't find any similarities between Bully and OB songs. I listened to both plenty of times, maybe I'm missing something?
I went to the 83 US Festival on Bowie day. I loved going to see live music, but not with a quarter million other people in the blazing sun with absolutely no shade available. I was about a year shy of becoming a huge Boingo fan, and the line-up was promising. U2 was just getting started: they were okay. Saw Pretenders: Chrissie Hynde was and is a certified bad ass. Joe Walsh made me smile, and the only other thing I can recall was how fucking annoying Stevie Nicks and her many undeserved encores were. David Bowie did not take the stage until 10:45 PM. But it was Bowie and worth it.
Long story longer: i exacted my revenge on Miss Nicks years later, when i was working selling jewelry at the Ren Faire and she happened to stop at our booth. I happily sold her $500 worth of lovely jewelry for about $950. She couldn’t have been nicer. My boss was thrilled. I was avenged. And I went on to work for Boingo years later. The End.
💀💀☠️☠️☠️💀💀
👹👹👹👹👹👹👹
Sure wish I was at all 3 days of this amazing 👏 festival.
Speechless!
This is pure gold
Thanks! :D Tinja&Markku 🌹
What's a crazy band! Ha, ha, ha, ha ! I liked it since times!
Just six years after this, Danny Elfman composed The Simpsons theme.
The only time you ever see this ginger in the sunlight and golly does he glow in it. Definitely not a daywalker!
sweaty boy
Yep
Poor guy. He wants so badly to strip but he can’t because the sun.. IT BURNS. He described it as feeling like hundreds of tiny nuclear explosions on his skin and he was an amateur nuclear scientist as a kid so he would know what that would feel like!
It was so dam hot that day. I am also a ginger and went home so burnt .
@@snydersub My cat is a ginger - a Siamese ginger, so he too is mostly white and pigment deficient - he’s got freckles on his pink nose. Danny however appears so pigment deficient he can’t even freckle?
I was at the concert...❤
Wow...what a show!
Haven’t heard “Insects” for oh say 30+ years. How can such a silly song be so awesome and likable? Only Boingo can pull it off. And Capitalism’s lyrics ring true today more than ever. So many Boingo songs that were waaay ahead of their time. Wake up it’s 2020 😢
Great, very underrated band. ...
Classic 80s alternative
Don’t use any of those 3 words in the same sentence ever again.
i was at this show; what an amazing band!
I was there too down front. I got a few great pictures. it was my 2nd time seeing them. surprised they didn't play ONLY A LAD.
I was just thinking what an amazing concert to be at.....Motley Crue, Judas Priest Missing Persons... it is only today that I found out that OB where there as well.... lucky man
Dear Danny, 💕💕!!
Why music like this went away I'll never know.
I Love Oingo Boingo, I even Met Leon s. @ “Magic Mountain,
:o(((??
(Sax.)Danny E. Was OFF ON rides!
Leon S.).
At 14:41 you can see that they were supposed to play What You See between Violent Love and Sweat. I wonder why they skipped it, it's one of the best songs from their first album.
it seems it is part of the "Encore" you can find Farewell Tracklist piece of paper online too, songs like forbidden zone and I think pain, they only get played under circumstances I assume, plus for this they had a time limit I think
@@Ian_Johnson Before Goodbye Danny says they’re running late so yeah that’s probably right
wow, this is early Boingo with Hatch on bass and Ribbs on keyboards
Who do you want to be today: best trombone solo in rock n roll
I saw this show,can't imagine I wasn't on Ously
Cool
A band like this would never make it today.
Wha the hell happened to music?
Was there,hotter than
Hell,great music, great
Looking women, had a
Good time!
Johnny Vatos passes the foo sock check.
I never realized sluggo did a FUCKING CLARINET unless it's a black soprano
and outside of the baritone being my favorite instrument ever HE'S MY FAV SAX PLAYER
GOD DAMN
