Outstanding! I remember (I think, pretty sure I think, but it's been a looong time) a 4 or 6 song EP by Red Wedding with a great song called "Think About It" on it. Played it on the college radio station one night.

Thanks for someone saving this.I haven't seen this since...oh snap,1982.

What a fabulous piece of work...an introvertingly prophetic, absorbing, awareness waking glimpse of the future's possibilities spawned from flashes of our past. Brilliant, simply brilliant. WTF is that kind of talent today?

This is a bit older than 1983...NWT was only on from 1979-80 and by `83 the host Peter Ivers was dead. I think this was shot in 1980....

[MichaelandSpider]

Actually this was filmed for NWT on my birthday in March of 1982. I know because I was there. I'm the singer in this video. Red Wedding didn't even debut until June of 1981. You are correct in that Peter was murdered nearly exactly one year later in 1983. Michael

Thank you so much motodude1. M.

Red Wedding are what I'd like to call "silent pioneers" meaning they were innovative and, it would seem, incredibly influential...but no one has heard them. To further indicate their stoic intensity, this searing track never even made it to the studio. I recall when I first heard Red Wedding's Up and Down the Aisle EP, turning to my roommate and telling her, "This is why I'll pay $60 for 5 songs."

Unique style in a generation where so many were copying each other! If only I had heard of them when I was in school...I would have spread the word!

Great stuff! Love the early days of Punk/New Wave and this is some of the best!
