I saw Nash the Slash at my old college back in 1986 with a band called FM. He got locked off stage and he asked me to get back in. I led him through another entrance and he was grateful. Just a memory when I herd the name.
I also saw Nash when he opened for Numan so long ago. He was AMAZING. 💙 I still have the original tee shirt sold at the Boston show. MANY years later, my 5 year old son asked "Who's that guy on your shirt?"....I told him everything about Nash's appearance and performance in great detail and how Nash just ROCKED that stage. I'd never seen/heard anything so unbelievably cool. 5 years old my kid was wearing a Nash The Slash tee shirt to bed. Now 29, he finally got to see Nash on RUclips...tears in his eyes with emotion. Even me....NASH touches your soul. One last thing...After we finished watching Nash's videos we both noticed that our entire living room felt...'full'... like a smile, or something 'soft' nothing negative. It lasted for about 15 minutes then faded. Anyone else ever felt this?
I saw Nash several times, but the best was in my home town at a really cool night club. I was sitting in an overstuffed arm chair 15 feet from the stage, dead center. It was his white CHiPs uniform show. Just so damn cool. Nothing else like Nash.
This show was the best Numan concert I have been to. It was BRILLIANT!!! Great to see the two of them perform together again! I first saw Gary 31 years ago - not tired of him yet.
Thank you so much for this video. I saw Nash the Slash open for Gary on the Pleasure Principle tour in 1980 (gulp), and wondered whether he was even still alive. I saw this year's show in Boston, and Nash, sadly, wasn't there. A real violin adds so much to these songs.
Thanks for this clip, must have been standing too close to the speakers to the right, and couldn't make out the violin as clearly as on this clip. Wicked show, def. my fav Numan gig of all. First North American GN gig & LOVED the line up that ran round the block & the packed venue! Gary really seemed to enjoy the whole show, really into the music esp. with synth out first half. LOVED IT!!
HAPPY CANADA DAY! Time to bust out the roto-toms, mandolin and mini-Moog to take a journey across time and space with Canada's original progressive rock band … FM! ruclips.net/video/z0b0uTBbayY/видео.html
@fotomax65 Odd The people I was surrounded by were all clapping, singing along and cheering. Maybe you were at the back somewhere? But I saw lots of enthusiasm from the sold out crowd.
So sad...and he died shortly after. I was a personal friend. We exchanged hand written letters through the mail often, me in Tucson Arizona, he in Toronto.
@fotomax65 Massimo, is that you? You must be kidding man. It was a sold out show and the crowd was really into it. Perhaps it is a cultural thing, tiffosi can be over the top sometimes ;-)
Fantastic unbelievable concert, embarassing attendance... is Toronto people at live events always so cold? No pogo, no dance, no people screaming... it was terrible... I understand why no big names come in Canada...
@ hammersmith-one-'he gets the crowd he deserves'-listen up-it was sold out-and yes he deserves that-what do you have to offer ???-i mean other than your lame attack on gary two-why waste your valuable time watching the video just to attack gary ???-if you dont like him-dont watch-and leave your lame comments for your own videos the show was great-your comments lame-and im thinking that i love you- but i know its only lust-your kiss so sweet-your sweats so sour-yadda yadda yadda
I saw Nash The Slash and Gary on tour together back in 1980. I also saw Nash open for The Who and The Tubes back in the day. Those FM shows with Rush were great too...sure miss the old days :) Thanks for uploading...looks like it must have been a great show!
the who show was a great gig- i actually made more money than nash did that gig- he was paid 100$ to open- he didnt care- the who are his fave band and hed have played for free- he paid me 100 for my gig(stage tech/sound) and herns (rushs lightman) paid me 100usd to help set up covers for the 4 aircraft searchlights that made a massive W behind the whos stage- one of my all time favourite gigs ive done

Great Great Story Nikola. It seems so genuine & love you & your son's reaction to Nash. So cool
love your story

R.I.P. Nash the Slash!
Peter Rodriguez i worked w/him since 79 -i miss him greatly too
This show was the best Numan concert I have been to. It was BRILLIANT!!! Great to see the two of them perform together again! I first saw Gary 31 years ago - not tired of him yet.
Thats why they hooked up ! So much talent ,good sound at time ,I was there!
Nash the Slash is the man, he can get his violin to sync with the keyboards prefectly, He is his own master when it comes to music.

A musical genius like Nash only comes along once and a while .he is greatly missed ! Peace Christo 👽🐕🎶❤️🛸
Thanks for posting this, i've never seen it before!
Great to see Nash The Slash again :)
I remember the Nash! I have been a fan of Gary Numan since I was 13!
Opera House Toronto Gary brings in Nash Numan is a top man as usual ..can believe I was in attendance !
LOVE this!
Wish I could have been there !!
it was an awesome show-glad it happened
Before Numan there was a little unknown band at the time called FM.

I can't believe Nash has called it quits after just reading his website. Depressing...
So sad...and he died shortly after.
I was a personal friend. We exchanged hand written letters through the mail often, me in Tucson Arizona, he in Toronto.

Sigh.... I can't believe I missed this. :-(

@ hammersmith-one-'he gets the crowd he deserves'-listen up-it was sold out-and yes he deserves that-what do you have to offer ???-i mean other than your lame attack on gary
two-why waste your valuable time watching the video just to attack gary ???-if you dont like him-dont watch-and leave your lame comments for your own videos
the show was great-your comments lame-and im thinking that i love you-
but i know its only lust-your kiss so sweet-your sweats so sour-yadda yadda yadda
Why does Numan stand at that daft keyboard just twiddling knobs? As you know he aint playing nothing
law of fives-23=5
