He was the Blondie fan club president..he models his hair after her here.He carried a hand-written letter from Debbie Harry on how she dyed her hair in his wallet.
This brings back some memories?? I was actually at this gig, the hacienda wasn't the best place for gigs it was actually pretty small. Mind you I saw the Cult here and they were brilliant.
Nací en 1983, triste, triste... esta banda me gusta tanto!! ... pero la vida tiene sus lados lindos. Por Mila, Santi y Diego, mis días son alegres!! (Oki, también mis sobrinitos, jeje)
Agreed. But I also agree with Lotus. Patricia Morrison sounds so much nicer and dignified. Or maybe , Patricia Morrison formerly of The Bags. Anyway, a great track and incarnation of the Gun Club.
Johnny's got a light in his eyes and Shirley's got a light on her lips Jakes got a monkeyshine on his head and Debra Ann's got a tiger in her hips They can twist and turn they can move and burn They can throw themselves against the wall But they creep for what they need And they explode to the call and then they move Move Sex beat, go They're stupid like I told ya, very stupid like ya saw Very stupid as the simple thought of ever thinking at all And all their mind, all their souls all their bodies all we know All we know all the things that should a made us whole All the colourless security was all that someone could go and move, move Sex beat, drop And yes you do look cool and by the floodlights so blue You make my tropical apartment bed, your sacrificial pool My body in the water and my heart is in your hand So this is the way you choose to send me to the judgement land So you can't move, move oohh..sex beat, go
Patricia Morrison rocking that smouldering goth look on the bass is something else! JLP was not at his best here and dare i say it looked a tad pissed off. It was the shitty Haçienda after all on what was quiet possibly a rainy day some time mid week. This sort of act would have worked much better at the International One or the Boardwalk. The crappy acoustics made Kid Congo sound like he was banging two dustbin lids together!
Yep, except for all the drugs and alcohol and the ego and the reckless indifference to band mates. The Gun Club was great because of Jeffrey and dissolved because of him.

@@hellobonappetit1657 Whatever. Jeff let him get away with any pedals to disguise his shabby playing ? JLP dumbed down the songs JUST so The Kid could play them. And he couldn't. JLP is the lead guitar on most Gun Club recordings.
Don't want to break anybody's Pierce/Harry fashion assessments, but JLP had many different hairstyles and colors over his career w/ the Gun Club. DH had a blue mohican cut when Blondie was just getting started.
It sounds so effortless when Jeffrey Lee Pierce yelps into that microphone. WEAW!!! Love it.
Have seen a lot of great bands but I would kill to have seen The Gun Club then. Brilliant stuff.
He was the Blondie fan club president..he models his hair after her here.He carried a hand-written letter from Debbie Harry on how she dyed her hair in his wallet.
So glad there are little video gems like this one!
Absolute brilliance.
Mark Lanegan brought me to the gun club and now I genuinely love them.
Carry Home, my friend.
Me too dude. Now I know why Mark loved the work of Jeffrey Lee Pierce and The Gun Club. :D
Sing backwards and weep.....brought me
same here
Same!!❤
This brings back some memories?? I was actually at this gig, the hacienda wasn't the best place for gigs it was actually pretty small. Mind you I saw the Cult here and they were brilliant.
Did you see Happy Mondays?
@@mattiassvanberg8292 I didn't unfortunately, saw the Cult, The Gun Club, The Fall and Spear of Destiny on separate occasions.
Gdamn !! THAT IS WHAT ROCK N ROLL IS !!! certainly grabs and it dont let go !!!
I agree Jeffrey
Rest in Powder
☠️💣☠️
The Gun Club was such an inspired band and JLP is the level of Jim Morrison ...
I’d program GUN CLUB w DOORS for at least 4 consecutive songs.
Better than Morrison!!!
Yes, cool song, and like the way they dress, and it's another nostalgia trip for me! Old guy.
fantastic singer
lol wut
Yes dude.
Ahhh the Hacienda before all the scallies arrived, great! Even if the sound in there was like an aircraft hanger and bloody freezing!
What's a scallie/scally?
@@mattiassvanberg8292A yob
Gun Club forever

Pat Bag on bass. Nothing cooler.
Deona Why Pat Bag? Why not Patricia Morrison? Anyway, she‘s great! Saw her with the Cramps once
Agreed.
But I also agree with Lotus. Patricia Morrison sounds so much nicer and dignified.
Or maybe , Patricia Morrison formerly of The Bags.
Anyway, a great track and incarnation of the Gun Club.
Maybe Kim ?
@@lotharhempel Pat Bag was/is her nickname. She pinched my bum once.
Deona, You words are the "Gospel" thee undisputed truth.
LOVEEEEEEEEEEE JEFFREY.. and kid congo powers
Thanks for sharing this.
amazing
Thunderous!
Meanwhile their tour van is being broken into.
Typical thieving Mancs.
More info on this story? It sounds interesting. Also fuck thieves.
All their equipment is on stage, so what did they steal?
we can f forever but you will never get my soul...
immenso
Johnny's got a light in his eyes and Shirley's got a light on her lips
Jakes got a monkeyshine on his head and Debra Ann's got a tiger in her hips
They can twist and turn they can move and burn
They can throw themselves against the wall
But they creep for what they need
And they explode to the call and then they move
Move
Sex beat, go
They're stupid like I told ya, very stupid like ya saw
Very stupid as the simple thought of ever thinking at all
And all their mind, all their souls all their bodies all we know
All we know all the things that should a made us whole
All the colourless security was all that someone could go and move, move
Sex beat, drop
And yes you do look cool and by the floodlights so blue
You make my tropical apartment bed, your sacrificial pool
My body in the water and my heart is in your hand
So this is the way you choose to send me to the judgement land
So you can't move, move oohh..sex beat, go
Nice upload!!
Wow !!
Thanks RUclips !
Oh man, I can totally see having a stroke induced by visiting my dad...

Ducaralho, porra...!
Now that’s country music. Where’s Henry Wms 3? Where’s GEESE?
Kid Congo with the open E tuning
Debbie Harry

nice profile picture
Yep, except for all the drugs and alcohol and the ego and the reckless indifference to band mates.

Did this guy cut his own hair?
yes the Debbie Harry look
Russell Goulding Yes! He was a one time president of the Blondie fan club hence the look.
@Practicalicalicalica What's a Normie?
.... ❤️
What pedal did kid use?
Sounds like a straight tank reverb with the amp's own overdrive.
distortion? u probably right
@@hellobonappetit1657 Whatever. Jeff let him get away with any pedals to disguise his shabby playing ? JLP dumbed down the songs JUST so The Kid could play them. And he couldn't. JLP is the lead guitar on most Gun Club recordings.
tube screamer maybe
Flanger pedal.
83? Looks 84 or way older. Maybe 87
Uh. what?
Doesn't the Blondie hair cut give it away.
Agreed. Jim Duckworth and Dee Pop were in the band in ‘83
chicano power!
What u mean by this just curious im mexicano and love the gun club…are they raza?🤣
@@tonysalas99 The Kid clearly is. And Jeffrey's mother was mexican.
He's cute.
I never knew the singer looked like Blondie. I know Darby, below me, already mentioned it but I had to say something!
Don't want to break anybody's Pierce/Harry fashion assessments, but JLP had many different hairstyles and colors over his career w/ the Gun Club.
DH had a blue mohican cut when Blondie was just getting started.
jlp was the president of some california blondie fanclub before …
Drums sound like they’re in an echo chamber.
80’s reverb!
@@turu4600 Its a special type of concrete box called the Hacienda
NIHILIST
shit sound , great band
the film looks too new for being an eaarly 80s video
nope
He looks like a chubby blonde girl in the thumbnail haha
