Great shots! You really show the band in true action. I wish there was more of Gotobed but there are a few of him drumming. In any case, this is a great video. I saw them in NY in around 2000. I live in WA so missed them at this grand show (wish I would've been there). They are one of the greats. Too bad we couldn't get John, Paul, George, and Ringo to have done something like this (impossible today). Thanks again for the great video!

Wir is Wire without Robert Gotobed. So without Bruce they should've named themselves Wie or, even better, Wre - because there is no 'I" in it :)

Great! Thx for sharing!

Without BRUCE GILBERT...it's only Wir. :)

Hi agbz,

Wire is still Colin, Graham Lewis on bass and Robert Grey (Gotobed) on drums. Bruce Gilbert left and so they are being joined on rhythm guitar on this tour by Margaret Fielder McGinnis from Laika. Hope this helps.

So who is "Wire" today? Colin and who else?

When it comes to great bands that influenced other great bands, Wire resonates through much of what is significant in music even today.

It was an awesome show! I stopped following them after the mid-1980s. But their Read & Burn songs (which I didn't know) were absolutely awesome. These Pink Flag ditties are still my faves, though.

Absolutely smashing....thanks for posting. I feel like a culture vulture. LOL! BTW- who is the gal playing guitar???
