Big Black - 1987/08/09 - 01 - Fists Of Love (Georgetown Steamplant)

[tomgv15]

At least the vid has some of the Black Outs playing on the catwalk as we wandered in. Not nearly enough Jesse Bernstein performing his poetry. including "This is music asshole!" funny thing was that before I went I smoked (A lot) watched Toxic Avenger, then off to the steamplant.

Still No. 1 on the best concerts I've seen in my lifetime.

This show was aired in two parts on Bombshelter Videos. That's how I was introduced to Big Black.

@MadThespian some introduction! check the videos of Pigpile (their show at London's Hammersmith Clarendon in 1987)

[MadThespian]

@luvdupraver Actually have a copy of that. Took me over 18 months to dl via the torrents. I was stuck at 96%, but I kept it active in the hope that it would finish. One morning I woke up, and it was done. And it's a nice copy too!

thank the lord that this show was filmed, thank fucking gawd!

[sbriske]

This was an awesome show! They had a guy pulling cards as to what song would be played next, in fact you can see him here at the end doing just that. Also, during the explanation of this, Albini said that if anybody shouted out any song titles they would take that card out and rip it up. Pretty fucken cool!
