I saw Madness in May of 1981 at The Country Club in Reseda Ca. and then again in September of 1983 at Anaheim Stadium where they and The Go-Go's were the opening acts for David Bowie on "The Serious Moonlight " tour. Also saw them in April 2012 at The Club Nokia in Los Angeles on a reunion tour. That's a whole lotta Madness!
It is a gem of a video to hear this live. Luckily have heard them all live at some point or another. One of the few bands who sound the same on stage as they do on a record :) Amazing band when you consider how they came together. Mike has to be one of the very best keyboard players on the planet. Suggs has an identifiable voice wherever you hear it. Its fading now a days but the magic is still there :) Great to hear an old set playing song most people never hear.
Bril! I'm back as a spotty 16 yr old! (55 now and can still 'Ska dance!). Great set!. Still can remember all the lyrics!..... Love their early stuff, like their later stuff!. Nuff said!.
Tracklist:
OMG! Just found myself in this video, a 16 year old fan girl dancing in the crowd....
This tour was promoting their third album 7, Madness at their best.
Old metal head from the states here... rediscovering Madness
