Please post more clips from this gig! I would love to see more or even just the rest of this song.

Could have done with some more of John McGeoch being filmed really. The guy just doesn't have enough footage at all. Then again, it might not have even be him playing the Yamaha SG at the start (further proving my point that there's a lack of video footage of him playing).

Still though, he fascinates me to no end.

@XellKamikaze Hi there....no, sorry, I do not believe that was John McGeoch skewering me with the guitar. I think this was a replacement guy. The stage was pretty small and we were inches away from each other, and the lights were kind of dark...partly because the cheap cameras could not handle much contrast. Anyway, for all it's imperfections, it is still pretty great I was there and had an excellent sound engineer who did a very good job on the sound.

@VJnumber1 Haha. It is great footage still! Thank you for posting this.

@XellKamikaze He was Robin Simon, ex-Ultravox, who replaced McGeoch for the 1980 tour. He lasted only in the tour, and was replaced by another guitarist. McGeoch never returned to Magazine, but he is the classic and best remembered guitarist the band had.

Brilliant Vid fella!

The most underated band ever!

[Elektrapunk]

Brilliant - Can this show be purchased at all on DVD/Video?

[VJnumber1]

Not yet. I hope to make it available one day. Need to work it out with the band. I think they just put out a new DVD of their recent concerts in England, or it will be out shortly, so it may be a little while before this will be considered.
