Yahoo! At last, video footage of the greatest band that almost was! I love them and tresure my considerable vinyl collection of ( ORIGINAL ISSUE..!) 12" and Lp's! What is the Shends My Space site under - I can't find it?!?!? LEO
welcome back TVT! love that band, about 15 years ago i passed a large balding man coming out of the toilets in a pub in london. upon the wall inside was written THE SHEND LIVES! if only id known it was him id have gotten him to sign my copy of Mommy Youre A Wreck! can we have the chaotic, random live music lunacy that was Tube back rather than the corporate cock plug fest of Later please Jools?
I saw this on The Tube at the time and videoed it. Like a tit I later recorded over it by mistake. I was gutted. I'm so pleased to see it on here in all it's glory all these years on. All hail mighty YouTube (and smugglertrev!)
You are welcome. I looked up the Very Things on YouTube a while ago and there was nothing. I'm glad to find someone else who remembered them and then actually had the footage to put on here. Top work. You no doubt will know the singer, The Shend, has his own MySpace site? I just can't believe it was so long ago! I was about 15 or 16 when that was on The Tube.
I know how you feel-it's hard to believe this was recorded 21 years ago!
The Very Things MySpace has this clip on it & The Shend sent me a very enthusiastic greeting. Apparently, C4 junked the original tape & no copies have turned up until now. Obviously, I was well pleased.
The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend!The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend!The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend!The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend!The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend!The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! The Shend! taking over the world!
This is the sor t of group that was just right for The Tube. That is not meant as a compliment.

OMG!!!! Flashbacks!! I knew their drummer slightly. Saw them play somewhere in Kentish Town in 1987 when they were supported by the Sugarcubes!

It was the Sir George Robey. Last support the Sugars ever did!!

God, I can remember seeing this on the Tube in about 1986. A mate lent me a video tape with it on and I played it loads. Good post!
