Bad Brains 1987 I

[Blueracer]

Good stuff!

[TheMailman1984]

1:43 is the truth to mankind

[AnDyPCLAM]

1:53 hahaha. These people clearly don't know what it is they're seeing.

[JoeStIdes]

man Dr Know. I still envy on the ax

[banzaitrooper]

@JoeStIdes He's good, HR is my favorite though, He's got so much emotion when he sings. Some bands still can't capture that.

[frrkguir09]

the most ridiculous crowd ever

[FlaxForFlux]

yea, the crowd seems really uptight.. course the don't look the normal fair for a hardcore metal show either.. bunch of yuppies.

[Raketmensch1]

I noticed your Mom seemed to resemble Jeff Spicoli, when she was choking on my ten-pound cock, you consumerist waste of skin. If you and your little debutante friends were on the scene in Georgetown back in the day, we would have stomped you to paste on sight, on general principle . . . Go put a gun in your mouth :-D

[SC0zzese]

man this band kicks some serious ass , you can really read the emotions off the singer's face , that's some genuine art right there

[dreadtodred]

bad brains were at the start of it all,hardcore!

[nneeuussoottaa]

me gustan mucho. nada más.

[acadx]

this was daytona beach spring break i was there, we drove from ocala to see them most of the crowd was spring break assholes

[youtsucksballs]

why isn't the crowd destroying itself?

[rama2340]

and god damn could they play

[rama2340]

One of only three or four hardcore bands that could actually play their fucking instruments.

[meeces13]

@rama2340 yeah what were the other 2 oh grand historian?

[tarwaterthomas69]

theres nothing bad you can say about bad brains...

[meeces13]

@tarwaterthomas69 cept that they hated homosexuals and got lost in religion

[water0xFF]

the crowd seems sedated

[DrunkenOJ]

This song and video are great minus the Cosby sweater

[dancingvandal]

the one thing I don't like about this is the audience. move around a little, you nasty twats!

[666Nightshift]

BAD ASS!!!!

[Nekradude]

this version has so much feelin! is better than the studio one

[MikeIXWilliams]

The fucking crowd has NO idea...

[addisdawtaya]

SELASSIE I RUN THE EARTH

[dreadtodred]

saw them back in the early eighties.Got to give them credit,they are the forefathers of hard core

[lazerjim1]

greatest band ever!!!

[robpen954]

The COOLEST name for a band EVER.

[meeces13]

@robpen954 yeah its a ramones song title

[Showdown91]

Probably the most underrated BB song ever. Just flat-out awesomeness.

[6025cory]

The Bad Brains stop by an MTV Beach Party .

[Nitrousoxide2k]

Is that Munky!!?

[meeces13]

@Nitrousoxide2k nark

[BongoFury33]

conventional reggae and/or hip hop has never attained the immediacy and power as bad brains

[deehurtz]

note to self: get one of those leather rob halford hats at 1:53

[orionconflict2007]

love H.R one ov thee best singerz.

[puntaarenasdeath]

''I''; very good song

[NorthcountyD]

I saw them twice on this tour; Phoenix (where my band opened for them) and Long Beach. They were definitely in their prime. One of the greatest bands ever!!

[oichaos1]

its sad to see HR become the way he is now. from being this vibrant aggresive young kid to this confused excentric old maann ... but i dont give a fuck BAD BRAINS IS THE SHIT !!! OI OI !

[brunoclercqthrash]

Best HC PUnk OF WORLD

nossa fiko impressionado e muito feliz por conhecera banda que revolucionou os anos 70

[oldschoolio]

"I"

[corycousins]

Maybe it's just me, but I think that Bad Brains should always be playing in a small dark club with blood and broken beer bottles littered all over the floor. Not to mention the crowd...I think wearing a frat sweater is about as non-punk as you can get. Alright, I will get off of my soapbox now.

[devolutionone]

WoW

[dduck100]

Jah RastafarI

[lannybarbiemusic]

rocking with a cosby sweater!

[plasterskater]

it was daytona beach in 87 of course they did.

[wisesatyr72]

Fuck Yeah !!!!

[misfithab]

OMG...one of the greatest bands I've ever seen is killing it right in front of you and you're just standing there like mannequins...are you kidding me?????

[TIMBO92804]

Was this a Spring break Florida MTV thing?

[WhoMadeWho33]

@TIMBO92804 i doubt bad brains would be no where near mtv. mtv barely plays any punk whatsoever.

[nightmarex66]

@WhoMadeWho33 LOL mtv sux man, their taste is music is pretty damn bad. lol

[erikinhawaii]

True story. Was hanging out with Dave Grohl drunk as shit at this concert...we still keep in touch.

[XhardcorehistorianX]

@erikinhawaii thats f'en awesome lol

[Mr87sam]

JAH!! RASTAFARAI!!! Ucjjsjocjdjdidihzhajsidbdnocod­hsisujsjxixhasijhahiduwsursiix­oxbhqisuyqyaosughwixugshsuushh­shhjsiahgausugagauzgshssshausi­xjnsosiis!!!!!!!

[Love2Scissor]

I wish my parents could of fucked 10 years earlier so I could have seen this.

[EmceeHo13]

@Love2Scissor I have seen them. and they still do play, But rarely. They are wise and Bad as ever.

[unlvrebelx]

@Love2Scissor ...mine did, and I did

[kermitneville]

@Love2Scissor It's "could HAVE." And please make a note of it.

[Love2Scissor]

@kermitneville Sorry online grammar teacher. I was drunk as a skunky when that was typed. Go find something new to do.

[extremelybusy123]

this is fuckin radical

[death0by0zgs]

people this is the fucking BAD BRAINS!!! MOVE!!!!

[Asharpshooter96]

That singer had no musical talent what so ever

[death0by0zgs]

@Asharpshooter96

This is hardcore not Judas Priest.

[TrunkDaPhunk]

....drove me nuts seeing that crowd just standing around. Fuck it.... I just got out of my chair and started moshing by myself.

[dogstar1967]

those fratboys and yuppies in the audience didn't deserve to have bad brains play there!

[qazqaz23]

now im black i knew that black ppl did punk but o my this nigs are getin down

[raylopezjr]

@qazqaz23 my man...these were the be all and end all

[RonansRecordingShow]

when these guys were hitting on all cylinders, there was no better band in the world!!

[UglyMafucker]

For Everyone else AFROPUNK .com nothing new actually as much original punk as Little Richard's ORIGINAL screamo-rock and roll

[GrimmjowO6]

this song is fucking tight long live the Bad Brains

[yeti30312]

what's scary is those brain dead college kids are running things now.

[pachoperbat]

Black People sing Hardcore! Cool!

[UglyMafucker]

@pachoperbat cute, however peep 'black murda' actually cut records and wrote lyrics pertaining to ACTUAL struggle b4 u started having a blogh-i(bloody) anarchy in the UK douche... no I know u were being facetious, but still

[UglyMafucker]

@UglyMafucker btw thats black Merda unfortunately their hardcore stuff went unpublished underground luck scored me an 8track listen

[UglyMafucker]

@UglyMafucker btw thats Black Merda unfortunately their hardcore stuff went unpublished underground luck scored me an 8track listen

[cartoonfreak15]

dude!the vocalist has 4 mega-giga-ultra-big dreadlocks!wow.___.

[xStaycleanx]

That picture before the video starts is the dumbest shit I've ever seen. I can't believe someone would be dumb enough to put that in this video.

[DOwhoYOUare]

lol at those too cool for skool fools in the audience

[jawallace1991]

Duuuuude Dr. Know knows what's up!

[mtgowns1]

fucking horrible audience. You have to be really dull if you can't capture any of the explosive energy emanated by the music and members themselves.

[NapalmWeed]

is  it me or does the beginning of my name is mud sound alot like the beginning of this song at 0:16? is bad brains one of primus' influences?

[h4723d]

@NapalmWeed Not to me, but I'm sure les fired one with the brains once or twice.

[xanderlev1]

They should've just broken up immediately after the show, at that point. If you're playing on the beach for a bunch of douches, you know something's wrong.

[comanfresh92]

Fucking seeing them today!!!!

[Sensoriexpansion69]

@comanfresh92 No fucking doubt...TODAY! The Brains are the shit! Saw 'em 1984,1985 and 1987. If you didn't leave the show bleeding, you didn't see them!

[yeti30312]

that crowd is a bunch of college kid zombies...duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuhhhhhh!!!!!

[haveacoke5]

I wish H.R. was still like that.

[clifton250]

love this band like nobody's business. what more can i say. cheers guys!

[xwolfsbloodx]

BAD BRAINS, MINOR THREAT, BLACK FLAG, GOVERNMENT ISSUE....that's where it all started! 99% of the people commenting on youtube didn't, don't and will never have a fuckin' clue!

It's all about having the PMA!!!!

[fattirevsbud]

how can u smoke weed and play so fast lol

crackheads rock!

[joey23125]

@fattirevsbud you're a stupid, typical, idiotic, american! You should be a spokesperson for bettycrocker because you have no fucking taste!

[vespamerica]

The audience is like: "what the fuck!"

[vespamerica]

What a bad ass fucking band!!!!

I can't imagine any other band playing after these guys...

HC/Rasta

[davexy22]

rasta hardcore. What an incredible combination. Love these guys.

[slayerplayer79]

stupid, i don't understand how the Older fools in my time liked this band?

[RonnyEvil138]

@slayerplayer79

Cuz younger fools like you listen to Lady GaGa and some shit of today. Fucker!

[th3unconscious1988]

@slayerplayer79 ...excuse ronnyevil138 for his stereotypical youtube retardation but Bad Brains was one of the bands that invented the punk rock movement and that may be the reason

[buokopter]

limon lime mint waterfall with fuckin thunder lighting you know?

[poisonspider89]

I fucking love this so much

[willy1986tralara]

yeeeeeaah!!!!!

[eos777]

1,2,3 charge ready and fighting.... charge rastafari.

[theogdc]

Where's all h.r. Haters posting ingnorant shit now! They were untouchable back then and there will never be anything close to their live performances in the 80s

[volch1]

wow

[dmkirwin]

I cant believe this, I was there in the audience, this is great.

[boneheded]

I'm envious!! Too bad for me! My GOD!

[chipi403625]

nunca lo habia visto una maza

[nazhtilka666]

jah rastafarii..... n stop fuckin comparing is all good rasta n punk.....

[mrperez666]

sounds a lot like nirvana in the beginning

[rockybobby]

you probably meant that Nirvana sounds alot like them; Bad Brains and this song of theirs was out way before the much overrated nirvana

[r0ckstar666]

I agree. Nirvana is way over rated.  Nirvana is not even half the bad these guys are.

[rockybobby]

You are very wise Rockstar666 ! right on !

[socksprod]

well that s funny isn t it...they have been around longer than dead Kurt,they r still around, weird ?No,I guess it must be the Jah thing...I call it perfection .Feed ya soul .

[RemiXXKid]

I wish more people knew about the bands like bad brains.. they never got their day in the sun but i dont think that was their goal anyway but they deserve alot of credit for what they produced as a band.

[1rastaraven]

H.R. is hot!

[ProAtHaloYo03]

Bad Brains DESTROY BABYLON!!!

[breakspeare45]

@ProAtHaloYo03

yeah....those breakers were steamrolled by the bad brains vibration...

[FleshLessOne]

it's All about the Energy ... and Tone Of Course.... Love it Fast and Loud... ! Long Live the (Orig) Punks.

[FleshLessOne]

RastaPunx.... lol Dreads Are Kewl... Roots. (o_-

[RemiXXKid]

Bad Brains will tear living color into pieces..

[thephantomhoax2012]

living colour has a lot of love for bad brains. i was looking at a vid (project placebo:bad brains documentary) where corey said he was at those old brains shows and he wanted to be HR! It's a cool vid if you haven't seen it.. Anyway Living Colour is a great band in there own right...BUT Bad Brains is hands down the greatest band ever.

[RemiXXKid]

I know they love the bad brains but they are not the bad brains.. I was introduce to them working at a job with Joe Lally bassist. I couldnt believe it when I heard these guys. The talent and HR's energy is hands down as your said the greatest band ever.

[universalpeace7]

I met and smoked a j with Daryll at a show a couple of years ago and he was a prince-very nice guy. You must have fell out of your chair...I agree with the Living Colour stuff- fast with no feeling. I've seen them about 7 or 8 times and they can rip through shows like that. Only one time was I moved by an LC show. Stain was a really their best album.....but in no way do they compare to Bad Brains.

[universalpeace7]

I'm the phantom hoax btw

[ProjectErik]

fuck off nazi shit

[Audious757]

respect due...

[dmattt]

Damn! These guys kicked ass! I would have loved to have seen a show back in the 80's!

[andrewmalacara1]

jeff spicoli is the best

[Millermaniacal]

Pure energy. There will never be a band quite like the Bad Brains.

[chubphucka]

i think living colour tried 2 take the tourch and it burned for a while....but never the less.....it flickered out....vernon reid.....awsome

[DeadFuckenSexy2]

That comment is sacreligous man...

Just to even mention Living colour on a Bad brains video...are you serious?

regurgitated mtv bubblegum shit....

[RemiXXKid]

I dont know about vernon.. He is good no question but I dont hear him. Playing fast with no feeling never works for me.. This bands energy is nothing compared to bad brains..

[ghost037]

I wish I was in a band at least half as good and energetic as the Bad Brains.

[DCXXX]

no shit ... where were you in '87?

[davedoug]

fucking geniuses

[Schiff252]

god damn, there has never been nor will ever be another thing like the bad brains.

[roneugenius]

Oh my Gawd! I think i am turtle headin now..yup be right back!.......Damn this band can STIR IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GlueyPorch]

Not anymore they can't. HR doesn't move on stage anymore and he just SAYS all the lyrics

[YoungEvelington]

Ew that was disgusting.

[roneugenius]

Sorry love....

[xwolfsbloodx]

WTF is up with the audience...people, it's the fuckin' BAD BRAINS, i'd be going mental upfront, what a bunch of douchbags!

[alex77827]

me too

[TheRegart]

@xwolfsbloodx well least you you can tell at end everyone loved it, if they started booing then they would be ULTRA DOUCHBAGS!!!

[elkwyre]

@xwolfsbloodx - I know right, they're totally static! That's what you get with a TV crowd, probably only 3% of em (if less) are hardcore.

[ProjectErik]

@xwolfsbloodx i agree 100% i would be pissing myself to be there

[mivoiosi]

@xwolfsbloodx i agree

[ryanb113n]

@xwolfsbloodx douchebags is a good word to describe....them.

H.R. had a amazing delivery.

[DoctorRobertBobby]

@ryanb113n his delivery was fucking brilliant. i've often wondered how/why he decided to sing/scream certain lines. it just would never dawn on me to do it the way he did.

[ExhumeForFreedom]

Amazing! Such pure mindblowing energy... you won´t see something like that every day.

[alex77827]

BAD BRAINS IS THE BEST!!

[YoungEvelington]

*are

[socksprod]

1:23 what more can we ask?

[suicidalfailuretx]

check out Dr Know's awesome sweater!!!!

[therubent]

Bad Brains is so cool!!

[dontknower]

Those musicians on the stage have no idea how lucky they were to be playing to those frat boys.

[resErectedGG]

theyre playing at daytona beach

i remember seeing this video a while back and it says daytona beach

[doubanjiang]

just one question: where's the fat dude with the mohawk?

Bad Brains are genius!

[kcssnotbubble]

ha ha, i know the dude you're talking about. He was in all the live shows posted on youtube.

[spoonyfork]

Those frat boys in the crowd have no idea how lucky they were.

[dreadtodred]

bad brains are fuucing hard hitting

[FuckTheNazism1]

this is not harcore scene...every punk band start with an idea to change this fucking world and then sold out!!

[Lizardthing]

Punk isn't about screaming and staying poor all your life. It's about playing what you believe in, and if you get famous or rich, WHO CARES, you deserve it, keep playing and keep getting payed.

[cisco9x]

Far ahead of their time

[juanlard]

i'm with papicops

[strumm99strumm]

I guess it's too bad, I guess it's too bad. I guess it's too

bad, I guess its too bad for you. It seems the truth always prevails

on your face and in the end I see what's in it's place. So in the

future you just may see, that's what you'll receive is what you gave

me

[strumm99strumm]

Not as much but with such intensityI'd like to be what they would

not want me to beI like to cram their chivalry inside their gutsI'd like to leave it all behind with the rest of the nutsINot

as much but with more feeling nowI'd like to forget about you and

try to break it somehow. I'd like to push it aside until I can see

some more. I'd like to leave you where I found you lying on the floor.

I, I.

[papicops]

Just knowing that these stoner bonehead bitches posted this up fills me up with rastafarian rage and anger.

[oldvolkz]

anyone know hwre to getthe whole concert?

[rockstarRT]

anyone can tell what's the tittle of this song? i think the band is one of the inspiration of system of the down, i gueese. guys, try to see cowboys from hell of pantera, i bet u love it, if not, try to hear the tornado fo souls from megadeath, one of the best!!!

[FriendsOfNone]

All those bands suck.

The song name is, simply, I. Though at the start they do an intro which isn't on the album.

That crowd is fucking hilarious as well.

[TerrierBram]

None of these bands I know, why should I listen to them. When I was young we had Bad Brains, what more?

[bibbe123]

best band ever

[moshfest07]

Thank Bad Brains for God.
