THE RUNAWAYS - Wasted 1977 in Punk Rock Britain

[WildOne7683]

I love that little strut Lita does at 1:15 :)

[betosk8punx]

Joan jet, 16yers, 5X1, very acnes, god tymes

[AmethystAnarchyAngel]

I so want to start a band like this! I think I just might!!

[PAULLONDEN]

0:53,,NOT true...she modelled herself after Keith Richards.

[ZeppelinClassics]

@PAULLONDEN NO WAY. Really? :D

[cactaceous]

What a mess of a song and what a mess of a band. The word poseurs come to mind. Very boring, mediocre and amateurish song. Then there's Lita acting and wanting to be metal and Joan acting and wanting to be a punk. Doesn't really fit. Musically or stylistically.

[PAULLONDEN]

@cactaceous Agree totally...still ,thisis interesting and funny to see,if only for how this bunch managed to fool the desperate music press at the time.Unlike todays overfed wannabees,at least they where slightly for real.This was all down to Kim Fowley's hype expertise ofcourse.

[F3502000]

@cactaceous Hummm...I bet both of those girls made a lot more money than you have...you know...being posers and all!!!

[barnybro]

207 235----nice

[kamobile]

[Starfirephoenix1]

@MegaDrock2011 Well if that is so ,,, I don't want any of what they had that day HA HA ! You are dead right ,they probably where the same ole people who cannot dare to live a life less ordinary ,same people who won't challenge anything ...

[wolvez2]

0:34 She chews that gum with such passion.. LOL

[Grinderblack]

GRANDIOSE !

[1ssjesus]

Lita and Vicki rocked.

[musikbox70]

Laurie McAllister RIP . She was the last bass player of The Runaways.

[prittglue]

PESSIMI !

[EvoVocalChick]

I'm straight, and watching this video makes me want to fuck Lita Ford!

[JuggaletteJasmine125]

Akakaakdsssaaa. Godd; If I could play guitar AND move like that around stage. NONE of these girlie girls who try to pass off as "rockstars" could ever top The Runaways. :)

[dmdiamond220]

i hate how some europeans call all americans dumb when clearly they could have known that that's lita ford with a simple google search

[RocknRollChloeNicole]

this person is an idoit thats lita ford not cheerie curry

[Videosarehere]

i love joans singing voice its so awesome

[4tuneagent]

Love the Runaways, but never understood why they ripped off UFO's "Shoot Shoot" riff, on this song. Runaway's with Cherie rules over this, anyway!..

[Modelcola]

HAHAHAHH thats not Cherie, thats Lita ffs. Cherie never played guitar!

[vanrychisintheplace]

love them ! did they only play wasted and school days ?

[basiacomeout]

ok thats not Cherie Currie. Its Lita Ford. Cherie had already left the band by this point.

[MyRecordingTV]

@420megadeth Lita Ford had a great solo career. eg: Close My Eyes Forever with Ozzy Osbourne, Lisa, Out For Blood, Gotta Let Go, Falling In Out Of Love ... & so on..

[creepwitme]

@420megadeth Yeh man Lita is fine as hell

[Starfirephoenix1]

@TheJohndoe63 OK maybe a set of 'spoons' players is more fun for you ,sorry to disappoint .you will need to be at a different channel for that kind of thing though.I aint got any of that kinda stuff.. sorry LMFHO LOL

[PBANDSNOW]

@TheJohndoe63 Ok then, dont watch. Its not rocket science.

[Starfirephoenix1]

@PBANDSNOW LOL @ John Doe he just had an answer from me I dont do videos with folk who " Play The Spoons" shall I upload him some Morris Dancers ?? LMHO LOL

[MyRecordingTV]

@420megadeth LITA FORD

[MyRecordingTV]

@ElizaSimplyLoveRock she left the band then..

[xtalktolabombx]

[runaways1975]

[AbelBehena]

Great quality !

[TheHage91]

To the guy who made this video thanks for the great quality but all respect the blond chick is Lita Ford not Cherie Currie.

[johnbleroy]

If you have any more of this OGWT video, I'd love to see it; I know they performed Schooldays too on this show; this is the highest quality video I've ever seen of the Runaways; nice job, and thank you!

[minotaur1231]

where did you find this video?

[morrowindpaladin]

Why does the caption identify the guitarist as Cherie Currie? Isn't that Lita Ford?

[almostsweet]

@morrowindpaladin Yep! That's Lita Ford! :)

[nathantim]

@morrowindpaladin lol thx, I thought I was going crazy. should have read the replies instead of staring at the screen for 10 minutes trying to figure it out lol

[baburjabal]

@morrowindpaladin because the person who made the video doesn't know their WASTED ass from a hole in the ground. Yes it's Lita.

[Brucev7]

@morrowindpaladin Yes. Saw them I believe on their first or one of their first gigs then. Peace.

[lamons71]

Joan Jett is badass

[bobolandlover123]

LOVE IT! JOAN IS JUST AWESOME.

[suzylux]

Wow the picture is really great quality. You'd think it was shot yesterday. Just wish the volume was a bit louder.

[Starfirephoenix1]

Was a while ago eh :)) Glad you enjoyed it :)

[Starfirephoenix1]

[blakeEllakristenCP]

[GirlscanRockkk]

Cherie quit in 1977 in the middle of the Japan tour right before recording this album (Waiting for the Night 1977)
