[Desiree50able]

JOHNNY SEEMS LIKE JUST YESTERDAY YOU WERE HERE WITH ME.

[pepino1618]

"How can The Replacements be the best band of the 80s when I've never even heard of them?" - Jon Bon Jovi, Musician Magazine (10/89)

[11xzxzxz]

Everybody stares and everybody hoots

Johnny always needs more than he shoots

Standing by a beach and there ain't no lake

He's got friends without no guts, friends that never ache

In New York City, I guess it's cool when it's dark

There's one sure way Johnny you can leave your mark

and johnnys gonna die. johnnys gonna die. and jon bon jovi should have died for saying what he did about the Replacments.

[arealOpia1991]

what does he say at the beginning why he cant sing ??

[jagfug]

@arealOpia1991 He says, "Hey put some reverb on my voice, I can't sing too good".

[newyorkdoll72]

*-*♥

[Desiree50]

I knew Johnny form the LES,he really was a sweetheart but he was a sad soul.RIP

[jam4996]

everyone riped this guy off...what the hell

[udohood]

OK this is the last song...its the best of the set because Johnny is "coming around"......About Johnny:....Johnny lost jerry nolan...after the Anarchy tour...Next thing that happened...His Wife took his Children to live with her mom...soon afterthat he was Divorced.... SO this is how it was Johnny shared his life with his"people" his true fans....(the dolls entorage came to his shows not Davids)... his shows were "hanging out with him" the loss of Jerry and his family SAD

[udohood]

IRVING PLAZA....look at the fucking stage,the floor I mean.....Walter was the sound of a gibsonguitar thu a major brand stock ammplifier,at the time of this show...johnny was in gangwar W/kramer....it was put together the night they kicked meg Geffin off WPIX.........it was a nightly Radio Show  at like 11;30 to 1;oo AM...Meg played EVERYFUCKINGTHING. PUNK the night they cancelled the show the station gave a public service message ...that there would be a "benifit"

[rotolo]

how he does this i dont know..

[chickybluetherealone]

I knew there was something wrong with JT here,

but the problem is,

even if he is all fuked up,

I still LUV him, LUV watching him,

and he still knew his music like the back of his hand.

I like how he jumps in crowd,

and still carry's song out.

[sallowdoll1987]

Do you love me?! I dont know that im want you or not baby. Just go with the flop cause life is a gas!

[tatethompson1234]

I think this is Cbgb's,the camera work seems familuar

[whatisthef]

YES I DO !

[ThaiAgroConsult]

Along with Joey Ramone, Johnny Thunders was a rock n roll god!

[ThaiAgroConsult]

[udohood]

thisis the night a show was given for Meg Griffen"s radio show "pix penthouse. Irving plaza's staff have turned off the stage lights on johnny,he's being lit by Pat Ivers"s hot color video lamps,which I am refusing to unplug though some retard is trying to scare me...Johnny had gotten sick on something and is only now 10 songs into a disaster of a set....so there were two other bands one was a lenny Kaye um uh amature something.

[bnfox1957]

saw Thunders here in Seattle in around 80 - worst concert I've ever scene as band members took turns going off stage to shoot up. In spite of that, I love Johnny dearly.

[cityIights]

I hope the kids watching this video get the *real* message, which is that heroin is a terrible drug that's killed some of the greatest talents in the history of rock music and destroyed the lives of countless more.

[scot66oman]

@cityIights amen citylights, for as talented as J.T.was ,drugs stifled any hopes of him being around for us to love him and have more of his great music....a damn shame!

[coldironhands1]

where can i see the rest where he plays i rather be with the boys?

[coldironhands1]

is this from a mondo almighty dvd?

[coldironhands1]

@coldironhands1

oh i guess it's from mondo 5. thanks for helping out to everyone that has it and answered me.

[Frojo87]

R.I.P Johnny

[UZIsuicide9111]

looks like a cross between edward siccorhands and pee wee herman

[ultracrunchy]

the greatness at the bottom of the barrel.......alive just enough to make some noise...like who cares about the music cause's it's so fuckin thrashed and fucked and gutter...all the snarl in the world...

[scratchnsnifff1]

Well tyson i know from experience that people dont try to get higher but they just try to maintain the high. And even junkies dont know how mch is tooo much when their shooting up. Btw Johnny thunders didnt od he was murdered.

[0501tyson]

this is bull shit how high can one man get ,its like once your high your high whats after that big high and you think you need a wee bit more to get even more higher then that wee bit you =DEATH it always happens it does matter who you

[up2space]

never again, this shit is fucking great.

[ElAlcaldexxx]

so sad

[up2space]

the people that killed Thunders where the same peoples that held NYC hostage. mix that with a disaproving stodgy white middle class that considers anything beyond humdrum weird and you get the death of a movement.

[coldironhands1]

what?

[up2space]

you know it's a damn crime that these bands never got any recognition in the media. while the ramones got a big record contract, these guys were still playing gigs like punk rock never died. i wanted to escape into the city to hear them, but i was a minor. lesson: take over the fuckin media. stop watchin bullshit television. we want the airwaves, baby. perhaps its not too late for some.

[imthatkid752]

ramones didnt even get the commercial success they should have..i dont think you can hate on the ramones for having been accepted a bit mroe-i mean they didnt miss shows or promotions- thunders was a junked up mess (like the black sheep of the fam you love) just saying if he'd not shown up to interviews all fucked up he might have broke through_drugs scare ppl who dont do drugs or hang with ppl who get down

[up2space]

did Thunders miss shows? that would piss me off. I don't care about his personal habits. that was his business. I didn't know Thunders was "big" because in the '90s he was resurrected from obscurity so the speak. However, people around said that the lines went around the block. fuck me, I should have ran away from home.

[jadesladerocker]

JT never missed a gig in his life

[imthatkid752]

@jadesladerocker

he said. people dont think they can trust me, but ive never missed a gig.

he also said he liked smack&that he could rock out with it.

ppl didnt think he could keep his shit together all junked up.even if he never missed a show,he went to interviews&shows all jacked up to the point where he was barely concious..could he still play?FUCK YES..not saying mainstream is what he wanted or anything- my point was just that junk and pop dont mix..& rightfully so.

[phailez]

@up2space The Ramones are crimanally underrated too though.

[Sathanico]

@up2space big record contract? what are you talking about...the Ramones were broke throughout their whole career...the only reason they survived was because they toured nonstop for 20 plus years. They killed themselves touring, they never made a top 10 radio hit and they never had a big record contract, they were always on the verge of being dropped. they died bitter and poor for the most part. they never got respect from the record companies. do some homework.

[TheMottSlutz]

@Sathanico They had some money towards the end. I'd imagine Dee Dee had the most cause he wrote most of the songs and sold it to them after he left. And they were really big in Brazil. Also, Sire was a very major label

[up2space]

@Sathanico yeah i know the story from that era blondie were one of the bands if not only band to get a big record contract, but im mean hey dude it was the era of the independents all these record companies with these a&r people everyone got a record contract the ramones are well known today as compared with some bands like DUH or who cares the 70s problem was the commercial shitheads who capitalized on the youth vibe watered down the best shit is completely forgotten the juden madesure of that

[udohood]

@Sathanico this is true, about the touring.....Danny Fields  hes allright,.....He even got Cameo'd in "please kill me" sexualy abusing Dee Dee.........

[johnnykaka66]

@up2space I agree, but we're outnumbered and I think it is in fact too late...

[up2space]

@johnnykaka66 by whom? it's never to late to educate a dumbass.

[luvumo2day]

i gave him the cigarette,yippie museum, get some juice,awesome.nyc will mold and rot and disapeer but i will mash potatoe into the next era of zoso son of sam

[keku42]

GREAT & BBBBiiGG G !

[up2space]

perhaps now i know why Johnny had a questionable on stage relationship with waldo...because waldo wasn't supporting him here... shouldn't hve been singin ...trying to show up johnny who gave him the gig or am i wrong? this is completely 70s mentality. saw you waldo. but hey, if you had the bals johnny did maybe you would be somewhere today instead of the defunct continental club. saw you there. it was great. carry on lad.

[up2space]

btw waldo i do a great johnny thunders if you want to jam just to piss away a six or so, email me.

[up2space]

hey i'm sorry for slamming Waldo here. I was glad to see Waldo & his band at the Continental back some years ago. They played the Heartbreakers tunes at a time when I had just gotten into them. Waldo, thank you.

[markwasthere]

perhaps it had more to do with being paid

[up2space]

hey i take it back. This video and performance is awesome. couldn't ask for more. Waldo, i am so sorry. If i didn't get paid for a gig i wouldn't play with that person anymore. Waldo was part of the band. pay or break my heartbreakers.

[RamonesBrat]

pavloinsua: max's kansas city; dunno when.

[GothPunkHippie65]

Do I love you? Does a phoenix have wings :D

[arilouxx]

He is a great performer. Keeps the crowd going with minimum effort.

[pavloinsua]

Does anyone know where and when this was filmed?

[rizzlaxl]

him being wasted, if he even is, makes me love this even more so fuck you

[coldironhands1]

what does he say befor sick of it

[youthkorps82]

awesome!

[alonelyplanetboy]

i played the live album dtk lamf (the live in london one) till it wouldnt play no more. so this is a god send. thanx mia you rock

[coldironhands1]

theres tons of johnny thunders live albums

[simonpenum]

I prefer hearing Teenwolf too sing it

[nick92691]

lol i lost my voice,i cnt sing to good,anyone have a cigarette? HAHAHA

[KEETHKAY]

Theres nothing wrong with people being junkies at there own will. All the greats in music history (in Rock N Roll at elast) were on drugs. The most inspirational people of all! <3 Peace And L-U-V <3

[newyorkdolls71]

Johnny's idol was Keith Richards. (Keith was a total junkie and a bad influence) I'm sad Johnny followed in his footsteps and took drugs just like... "Keith". I can't believe Keith killed Johnny by influence. RIP Johnny Thunders! Do You Love Me? is an awesome song!

[Al25401]

like it or not... he was a junkie.

so was keith richards.

and nikki sixx.

and slash.

so why give a shit if someone states the truth.

[sidfurious24]

Johnny RIP

[Desiree027]

i will always love you

[tejkosmejko]

johnny.miss you..love you..you are everything..you are our hero!

[181shelby]

Does anyone know where this was filmed? I may have been at that show if it was done in Rhode Island during the eighties...Great show for Doll fans and other wide-eyes.

[newyorkdolls71]

Thats right! they rock! GO JOHNNY!

[vinikov]

I'd be his best friend if he were alive...haha.

He's great!

[NONA505]

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU JOHNNY

[gorblimey61]

At least his eyes weren't rollin' in the back of his head on this one.

[Chuckjagermeister]

Yeah that's me in the black in back with my head tilted.

[dommythunders]

I thought I'd seen almost all heartbreakers live anyone what show this one from. It's nice to see johnny in a good mood and semi-straight -god bless him

[johnfre]

Does anybody know the date and venue?

[custer1968]

[maxsrox]

[hashysh13]
