I loved these gents. I was the cinematographer on this clip and we had ourselves quite a time. The fast moving dolly shots on stage were actually me hand-holding the camera while on skates. The morning of the stage shoot my VW go stollen. I was a bit late due to talking with the constable. I got the car back six months later, sans engine. The cops charged me for storage. I couldn't afford their rates so i had to give them the pink slip. Stevie Price was directing. Rock on! MG
My comment wasn't meant to be taken personal. As a former music writer my "ego" comment was based on a brief meeting I had with you after a gig in LA in the late 80's. I was writing for a college paper.You came off as someone who had a chip on your shoulder which could hold back a band.While Mr. Trott seemed to be more comfortable in his skin... You/WT WERE successful artistically,just not so much in mainstream. I'm sure you're not the same "ego" driven songsmith today right?
I remember Bono was a fan

GREAT BAND...if not Hunter's ego they would have had much more success.
The more level headed guitarist Trott scored big time later on as Sheryl Crows co-writer.

Saw these guys open for Big Country back
in 1984. One of the best shows I ever saw. Anybody have or know where I can
get a time machine? I'd like to go back.
