awesome kilt! i have one of the signed prints from this concert. i'm 13 and big country is my favorite band. i should have been born in the 80's. stuart april 11th 1955 to december 16th 2001, why did he have to die?
I'm 16 and Big Country is my favorite band! I've always said I should have been born in the 80s too lol. I'm glad to see I'm not the only kid out there who loves Big Country :)
I take back that comment about the kilts. It was done tongue-in-cheek. I have genuine respect for Scottish culture. Big Country is my favorite band and their Scottish influences are a big part of that.
misterpunk i could not agree more i cannot beleive that not anyone in a civilised society does not know that every fine scotsman wears a kilt and what a fine scotsman stu was and bruce of course. and tony and mark wear wearing theres out of respect for the concert going glaswegians what a band live from the scouse adopted scot billy 2610
Most underrated group ever! This clip doesn't do justice to their sound - get the CD The Buffalo Skinners to listen to the song properly or the DVD (doesn't have the very prophetic war clip as here though.) The late Stuart was a 'master' of prophetic words - listen to his words CLOSELY! Chester's Farm is true to every word (also on The Buff. Skinners CD). Why don't they re-release Blue on a Green Planet - so appropriate today
Ahem, less of the 'skirts' terminology dude. they are wearing KILTS ! It's traditional highland Scotland dress code....and with a claymore (which is a heavy broadsword) you don't mess around .... but don't worry, if you don't know yer history you can always learn...after all, I'd hate to think where America would be without any input from the Scots.....This was filmed at Glasgow Barrowland, Scotland (on a friday night supported by the Alarm)...I was at this and it was very good indeed! cheers!
I remember seeing Big Country in '93 in NYC and they opened with this song. Great great show! It would've been even cooler had they worn the kilts!
