Oh, wow, live footage! Thanks for posting this! I'm truly disappointed I never got the chance to catch the Fibs live (mostly because...*cough*...I was busy being born when they broke up)...growing up as a strange child who was into New Wave, classical music, European cinema, poetry AND B-movies such as 'TerrorVision', the Fibs seemed like a godsend. Insanely amazing and original...one of the best bands of the 80s.

All of the reunion performance was shot, though some of the songs were cut short, due to fears that there wasn't enough tape and yours truly not fully grasping the fact it would be a worthwhile document 17 years hence. Perhaps excerpts will be posted in the future. They were a great great band.

The weirdest part of that evening was when Jac Zinder had to get onstage in the middle of the set and request that people stop smoking marijuana. I think management was unhappy with it.

Great band, plus my dad is friends with them. :D

Thanks for posting this and that amazing video of Purple Haze. I loved your band (still do)!

Obnoxious double post! As a fan, I feel obligated to pose the usual annoying queries: was the whole reunion show filmed? Is there any more classic Fibs footage in your archives? Is anything Fibs-related likely to surface in the near future?
