Best live band EVER! They're drinkin' Blue Whales. The recipe is in the liners for their Best of (Blue Curacao, Vodka & lemonade). Drink 'em up- the drink and the 'Tones!
1983 actually. From Hexbreaker. Great record. Same label as the Crampps and REM. I had a videocassette highlighting the labels acts from 1984. Still have it and cherish it!
One of my all-time-favorite songs from one of the very best bands in America. I've always loved this video, and I don't ever recall seeing it in long-form like this on MTV so many years ago. I always loved all the voiceover comments throughout it - they just added to the whole "superrock" vibe. "I'm gonna keep it that way!"
"one of the best feel good bands ever." I couldn't said it better....so I didn't. I just copied and pasted some other guy's ideas herein. Why re-invent the right side of a good thing?
And f*ck it! Who cares that it's posted as "Right side of a 'goog' thing"? That is how Fleshtones fans roll.

my band got to open for these guys on this tour, when they played Carbondale, IL. One of the most fun gigs ever.

These guys really did dominate a club space when I saw them back then. Peter Zaremba was so electric and the band was off the hook.

In college Fleshtones were the acid test - if you didn't like 'em you weren't cool enough to be my friend. SuperRock Aaron!

Zaremba was my BF when he bought that Farfisa from the Buylines! I liked the 'Tones best with Marek in them. Good video!

"Hexbreaker" was one of the all-time baddest LPs of the 80's. Why is it gone without a trace? WANT IT BACK!!!

Ahh, it feels good to see and hear this. (You're so right, strombringer!) Hexbreaker was such a great record, I wish I had a copy.

The drink that Peter is dishing out at the end is the infamous "Blue Whale" cocktail:
1 can frozen concentrate yellow lemonade
fill can once with blue curacao
fill can twice with vodka
add lots of ice
