Original Max Webster Reunion-High Class In Borrowed Shoes

[rascalhoudi1]

Great performance,I love watching some of the old Max Webster live vids....

[MrChungli]

Please tell me that's Gary McCracken on the drums. They were the 2nd band that my brother introduced me to when I was 11. The 1st was KISS (love them both)

[LOUDROWDSTROUD]

@MrChungli - Yeah that's Gary alright. Never got a chance to meet him, however I did see him play with Tres hombres a few years after Max broke up, and I got a chance to play on his kit at Klaatu's studio. That was SWEET!!

[PrankZabba]

beauty eh

[dharmaseed]

If it somes down to Dave Myles vs. Mike Tilka, Mike kicks so much more ass on this song than Dave.

[cooksontrains]

Saw them lots throughout the early 80"s & in 91.Awsome extremly incredibly underated band/musicians.Thanx Pie!!

[joebester]

seen max play alot buy i never saw Mike

tika play live

[toDan421]

This show was at a club in Mississauga Ontario called Superstars.

[TracyFClark]

they sure could rock!

[dharmaseed]

And now it's playing all angry music and teenybopper crap, so any band that makes decent music doesn't get played now either. If it weren't for a mistake at the old CD store, I'd never have known about Max Webster.

[snottydyck]

these guys should have been so much bigger. problem was that radio at that time period was going through a huge disco outfreakage and you could only get air time if the music you played sucked.

[canadianroot]

i disagree. it's tough to break through when you stay in canada. for every Rush, there's a thousand other bands who never got their due. you may be partly right about the disco wave burying some acts, but there was still a ton of arena rock driving the industry back then.

[simonhead666]

Didn't they start the set with 'in contact of the moon'?

I was a while ago!

thanks for the upload!!

[erniew1961]

This was at LULUS in Kitchener and they started the concert with OH WAR!!

[pitbullhead001]

You can see Toronto Music Awards in background at 2:31. It cetainly looks like Lulu's during their gig on New Year's eve. There is a bootleg video of the Lulu's gig out there, somewhere. I am still recovering from the hangover. lol.

[mrTodd1968]

Mike Tilka makes this for me. I just love seeing someone have so much fun kicking ass. What a killer performance!

[bluesfunky009]

[alanmorri]

@mrTodd1968 Indeed!!

[diecrewdeluks]

[petrilena]

Does ANYBODY1111 have any more MAX videos? I sure was pissed off I missed the 30 year reunion! JP Pittsburgh!

[FatherGump5130]

Now that it is the start of the May long weekend, it is time to crank up the car stereo and blast Max for the ride to cottage country!!! Thanks a lot for posting!!!

Happines is beginning to rise!!!

[GWBsux]

This is an amazing performance -- they sound great! I saw Max Webster open for Rush in 1978 and they have been one of my favorite bands since then.  Kim Mitchell is an incredible talent and killer guitar player!! Thanks for posting this.

[chiefshawn]

such a clean sounding perfomance,almost sounds like the album i love it :) thanx!

[eshtehar]

on THE HUNT for paul kersey ps still have your baseball bat drumsticks hope your still playing got a shot of tequila for ya

[toDan421]

I know Paul I have a number for him

[JairajGeorge]

Kim Mitchell is so awesome, I got to see him play and meet him in 2006, he's a musical genius in my opinion.

[drfunk444]

Under-rated guitarists FOR SURE

[cometdust]

Saw them with Rush a couple times around '79. Real mind-blowing eye-opening stuff.

[alanmorri]

Wow indeed! This amazing! Thanks again Bigben! Can anyone out there steer me towards any place that sells Max related stuff? I'd give up some serious cash to own a Max t-shirt...better yet..I want that shirt Kim is wearing here!!! I sure miss the kind of professional fun these guys could dish out is serious amounts!!What players!!

[RustySacks]

Wow this rules. High Class is like their best song on the real... until UJ of course!

[bobby666666]

Thanks for adding this. Being from the UK, i wasn't aware that a 1991 re-union took place. One of their best songs along with The party and Research (At beach Resourts).
