[guttersnype00]

One of my favorite songs ever!!!

...but Kim's vocals are barely heard here! :-(

[jacob7207]

Got you nasty boys! WTF?

[MasterShifty]

This sogn just never gets old. It's as somebody said before, it's one of their most beautiful, but extremely intense songs ever. Thank you for posting all these videos, as I've been enjoying everyone's old Sonic Youth shows on here lately.

[jamieloveangel]

They sure sounded a lot like janet jackson back then

[chepe371]

LOL @ the Janet JAckson preshow music, sign of the times. 1986

[lucesraras]

Buen sonido de la grabación excepto por la voz de Kim que se oye poco clara.

[dirtyjon23]

[MaturitySucks2008]

[rayolacer]

pure bliss

[swimmingground]

sonicchout, you do good work !

[DailyBrusher]

Wow & Geez... I was at this show. I think the opener was fIREHOSE, first tour after d. Boon from Minutemen died? The encore was Starpower, with the Sonics, firehose and roadies all on stage. Before they played I was standing behind Kim Gordon in the audience, thinking she was hot and wondering why I'd never seen her around the scene! I recall it well, as it was a fave band at their peak. Thanks, sonicchout - did you shoot this? Where'd it come from (Tom Noerper).

[ExodusPessoa]

I was 5 when performed this!!!

[rodo15ronalds]

i wasnt even born

[aubreylear]

i was exactly nine days old during some point in this show.

[tomcattiger2010]

@aubreylear :

And Kim Gordon is still as hot as she was back then. Staying hot for a quarter of a century, that really casts a shadow of a doubt

[tomdickhead]

shame the vox are so quiet

[thesatellitemusic]

hey sonicchout amazing video, thanks for this, you may have inedits albums or songs of sonic, please share with us!

[sucramnipp]

[stinju78]

[SONICchout]

Nasty Boys by Janet Jackson!!!

[Caribou1983]

nice video

what's that song at the begining?

[thegun2die4]

yeah, why is janet jackson playing at the beginning?

[SONICchout]

they used to use tapes in between songs to bridge the gap when switching guitars and tuning.

[ExodusPessoa]

Thank you SONICchout this group was so ahead of its time this is in 86 and it sounds like 94!!! I didn't know the the group was this old!!! I thought they started in the late 80's early 90's WOW!!!

[SYR81]

it was a method that was used more so on earlier record "bad moon rising" (1985) which came from touring and having to tune guitars in between songs while performing live.

[googlyminotaur]

one of SY's most beautiful and intense songs

[SONICchout]

Agreed.
