FEAR - BEEF BALONEY - NEW YORKS ALRIGHT ON SAT NIGHT - LIVE - HC WORLDWIDE (OFFICIAL VERSION HCWW) 

I guess that was not in rehearsals.

Right before Ian you can hear John Brannon yell "NEGATIVE APPROACH IS GONNA FUCK YOU UP!!!"

@@frankieaboytes4155 whoa, nice catch, never noticed that one

Love that dude!

I never knew that was him, thats amazing🤘

Fly your black punk flag, brother!!!

Ice-T was quite the punk rocker once upon a time, if I remember correctly.

My black friends were right there with you brother!

Shouldn't say that many friends of myne(in the hardcore scene)in the North were black,oppressed,working class kids were in the scene...the beauty of not fitting in with the popular,trendy,and wannabes is you fit in and color,Creed,or ethics had nothing to do with it.We as hardcore,straightedge,anarchist were all brothers in the anti government scene.That is why we were called independent and underground scene.

And to that I still am...and proud of it.

After this nothing cool ever happened on this show and stands to this day.

@@johnjennings8085 The Replacements appearance was pretty great too. They learned not to let the fans in after this 😂

@@johnjennings8085 Norm McDonald as Turd Ferguson on SNL Celebrity Jeopardy

This is SNL?!! Holy cow....

@@imrytebeehyneu This was from the seventh season (the second without Lorne as EP). John Belushi was a fan of the group and got them on the show to compensate for their songs getting pulled from the Neighbors soundtrack.

Fear and ving would be cancelled into todays woke bitch pussy society

Sax is underrated in glam and punk: Roxy Music with Eno honking away, X adding to their LA sleaze, The Contortions just kicking all possible ass...

The sax that Derf Scratch plays in New York's Alright is amazing. Such a GREAT album

Fun House by The Stooges, too

Andy MacKay.​@@SuperRobertoClemente

look up "clowncore - computers" and see where this has lead ...

lol absolutely

***** oh how DARE i argue with hitfix!

Indeed

um

Kim Chi this perfomance is better than literally everything you named

That was freaking HILARIOUS! Love Lee, such a punk

Loved that

New Jersey is like the failed abortion of America

@@danishmoocow4424 What part of NJ did you go to?

@@danishmoocow4424 And where are you from?

If you know anything about New Yorkers, thats the ultimate insult.

Better yet listen to the Dead Kennedys: California Uber Alles and Holiday in Cambodia....You couldn't release those today with the "woke authoritarian crowd"

Today they would be like "this is for the bad mean republicsns and our democrat leaders who everyone should do as they say"

Sounds like fun. Something to get back to after we put Commie China back in their place.

@@Monchi2006 LMFAO and do you honestly think that’s not the Republicans too?

@@billygnosis6976 the anti-woke hate Dead Kennedys because they reveals their plans of the maga crowd, same with Police Truck. You must ber thinking about Skrewdriver.

Michael Extrafalarious technically, this was after The Dickies appeared in the show CPO Sharkey with Don Rickles and actually performed "Hideous" live.

+Michael Extrafalarious is pogo not mosh pit...

Slam Dancing not pogo or a mosh pit

Yes it fucking makes me cringe when i hear people say mosh pit, it is a slam pit, or people throwing up horns and saying punk rock

Who is cooler than you?

annoying haha, sounds about right, some girl "giving you the brush", as Derf Scratch said in the song on the 1st Fear LP. I bet she expected you to say someone dull & inoculous like Candy Dulfer. Derf's sax on N.Y.'s alright is so irritatingly brilliant, the kind of sound like metal scraping across metal, that empties a room quick the way Ornette Coleman's avant garde sax playing once did way back when. tension, friction, off-notes, great in how they tweak the ears uneasily.....

You're annoying.

A man takes what he wants, maybe you didn't want it or aren't a man?

@@gregoryhauserman5927 Really? Spoken like a true dickhead.

Certainly dodged a bullet there.

I *know*, I was so psyched to see that Donald Pleasance got to introduce them! 🖤🎃

Pleasance got some of Belushi's Peruvian marching powder. Look 👀

Plesance: So how do you want me to introduce you lads? Ving: Give 'em the impression you're scared shitless of us and are desperately trying to prevent some kind of apocalypse. Plesance: Perfect! Lovely meeting you.

they got banned right after this performance lol

This might actually be one of the reasons they don't take more chances.

it was less the willingness to take chances and more the fact that Belushi insisted they be on. Lorne Michaels didn't want them on, but he agreed to get Belushi to do the show.

It was all Belushi....it was almost as though SNL had nothing to say really

actually SNL didn't take chances. John Belushi was a huge fan of FEAR and was instrumental in getting them on SNL. Belushi even recorded a song with FEAR for his movie Neighbors, which wasn't used. Lorne Michaels isn't this exciting. SNL is plain toast.

Its a "Staged" Fake gig.

@@bilhamcobbly2957 no it isn't lol

@@bilhamcobbly2957 they got banned and the crowd caused thousands of dollars worth of damage lol

@@bilhamcobbly2957 the crowd were actual punks from DC that SNL brought in cause they were afraid of the regular crowd not being punk enough

no it wasn't.

Exactly Except for if you own the equipment

***** Here's hoping this happens. That would be an amazing release after all these years.

David Kunikis Wasn't Belushi and Lee ving cousin's or something? I've heard that over the years, not sure tho.

Nothing against their music, but it sounds like a business decision to not have an already strange little movie implode from a lack of audience.

I love that movie.

But they did play the Dead Kennedies "holiday in Cambodia"...in the scene in the kitchen when dan Akroyd was cooking...just saying.

20 bucks? In 1981, that's nearly 70 today.

I'm proud of you now

Did you have a time machine? This aired on Halloween 1981, and was NEVER shown on reruns. Their first album was recorded in December 1981 and released in May 1982.

Underrated by you maybe

I can attest they are rad live

Just saw them with Misfits. They fucking killed it.

Trick or Treat!

Yes Belushi got them on.

Sadly died 4 montha later. But in there slammin with some of the Punk greats- much from NJ which made up our great NY Punk- so shut it all yous-

Fear sucked and Belushi was a fat POS.

@@uslegions2619 Agree yus...All good👍

+Philip Shirk lmao, YES!

That was Lee Ving? Now I know why he's famous.

Bluto Punk

@Cary Groneveldt sheena was a punk rocker, judy is a punk

I thinks so too he was fucking awesome

John candy was too

@@ralphchunksoup4234 You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right. I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you, but I don't like to hurt people's feelings. Well, you think what you want about me. I'm not changing. I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. 'Cause I'm the real article. What you see is what you get.

The soul singing is on the album, if we're thinking of the same "low down skagadoo" line....

You just know they were fans of his!

You don't know what evil is!

@@doctorthirteen5727 I watched him for 15 years, sitting in a room...

On Halloween, no less.

When did punk rock become so safe?

Punk has always been dangerous, you just don't hear it because it's not on the radio. Go find your local punk shows. They are usually DIY and basement shows, but all are welcome, as long as you're not a cop or a fascist.

@@stephenryan1912 It's a piece of lyrics from NOFX's "The separation of church and skate"

My scene...I was a kid in the scene...remember this well.54 years old today and still in the scene.

@@stephenryan1912 Not true at all we have 4 college band stations in New Jersey and NYC and not as they once were in format but they still have shows on the radio...Just scan down the dial.

Why? Cause someone said fuck new your or the horrible trash music? What EXACTLY makes it the best snl gig EVER?

@@johnkoepke4807 because it makes people like you seethe

They were actually banned because an audience member screamed "Fuck NY" into the mic after the second song. That's why the camera was cut during "Let's Have a War"; some mucky muck from NBC heard that and ordered the telecast to be aborted.

+Greg Holt (GregDiablo) That and the $10,000 or so in damages.

$200,000

No matter what the damages cost, losing your license to broadcast is much more expensive, so I'm sure NBC could care less about the pocket change and cared more about the "Fuck NY" comment.

In Lee Ving's interview, he says he actually screamed to the NY Post it was $400k then slammed the phone down.

lowendtheorystudios This would have maybe been the only reason to even watch the anniversary show. Epic.

+lowendtheorystudios No, Belushi didn't host this one. However, it was his final appearance on SNL. The producers had Donald Pleasence hosting because it was October 31st and he was promoting Halloween II. The year before, Christopher Lee had been on the Halloween episode and it drew record numbers for the show. So the producers were hoping to repeat the success. I agree about the 40th anniversary. In fact, I thought they would show the clips from it. This episode hasn't never been re-aired in its entirety. In addition to the FEAR incident, there were a bunch of bizarre skits written by Michael O'Donaghue that were deemed unsuitable for television.

Well, it looks like Belushi shared some of his Bolivian marching powder with Donald Pleasance at least. Maybe a lot.

Doctor Loomis himself introducing FEAR is one of the most awesome things I've ever seen. It's like 2 world's colliding of my favorite things.

Aw, you messed it up. Should've been "sheer!"

John recorded their first demo, which has recently been released on vinyl, thanks to Lee's somewhat newfound love affair with merchandising. Around ten years ago he asked me to mail him copies of the 30 or 40 FEAR live recordings in my collection as he wanted to put a compilation together, promising to pay me back for the postage and send some signed records back as thanks. Somewhat unsurprisingly, he ended up doing neither. Ah well!

If you haven't seen Get Crazy seek it out.

Yeah since it takes a genius to scream and play power chords

They had actual talent, just tried to hide it!

Best wattles ever!

And that’s Kenny from South Park on vocals, lol!

well she did host Janet Reno's Dance Party

Lol. It's a Saturday night live crowd.

@@MrOctober44 It wasnt tho, they specifically got punk scene people for this audience

​@@MrOctober44he did it to every crowd is what he meant.

@@MrOctober44You can watch him doing it to a hostile crowd in LA on "The Decline Of Western Civilization Part 1" documentary... People try to fight them lol, and that was normal for their shows.

You saw them with Misfits? I'm seeing them both in April! So excited

@@Ghoulische yeah, The Distillers we're supposed to open, but cancelled last minute, so they got Fear to open.

@@ThorCarlton Sounds like an amazing show either way. Both bands are great

@@Ghoulische it's was awesome. I saw a lot of great classic punk bands last year, so they were a nice addition. I got to see the Misfits, Fear, Black Flag (met Greg), The Dickies, TSOL, and Total Chaos.

Darrin Connor him and philo are back in the band apparently

The rest of the band can suck, but, you need a good drummer. They actually sounded relatively good.

One of my all time favorite drummers. I would rehearse as a kid listening to FEAR and his drumming.

He had his own sound, that's for sure. Hyperspeed fills and great bass pedal.

He has a D-beat style that I think Discharge kinda made famous or something like that . Killer drummer one of my faves for sure.

LakeErieOH Weird way of spelling Dead Kennedys

@@dead_kennedys7870 weird way of spelling Minor Threat

FEAR smokes both of those bands.

@@dead_kennedys7870 ? FEAR is spelled FEAR, no other way; not spelled Duran Duran, ABC Band, Men at Work, Devo, Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, iambic pentameter, four four beat, trite music, Air Supply, Top 40, Al Stewart, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Sousie and the Banshees, ect

@@Patrick-id9uq FEAR is spelled FEAR, no other way

USA Network: Night Flight started up on June 5, 1981, in the SNL timeslot I remember most of the shows, such as Atomic TV.

SNL is corporate sell out pablum. Safe and mediocre. It's been a joke for 20+ years now.

pretty sure they banned acts like this. or at least FEAR from playing.

And the Replacements and RATM. But they exploit and let licking Cyrus go on? Hypocrites if you ask me.

The Replacements in ‘86 was probably the last time they let anything even remotely like this ever happen on SNL, and they got banned too and caused a lot of destruction to the backstage area. Lorne Michaels is an uptight twat.

@@danbam3411 yeah well Miley sold records and were popular at the time and didn't act like they were retarded these people aren't even playing music I seen better garage bands in high school

They don't have the balls for it

+FuckPunkers Agree completely. I was part of the scene here in Texas (we held our own, MDC, The Dicks, DRI, Stickmen with Rayguns, Butthole Surfers, etc. The latter not hardcore, but still pretty bad-ass. However, combine the Texas scene with NYC, Phoneix, SF/Oakland, and it could not hold a candle to LA. I toured with Black Flag 84, and Descendants in 85 (I know Stevenson)so got to see different cities. Basically a city had a scene or it did not. Of course Black Flag always claimed Redando Beach. I saw FEAR many times. They were influenced by Texas Punk. Just like X was. We took what was coming from that NY/HC scene (Agnostic Front, Beastie Boys - yes, them - and do what we always do. Gave it some swagger. ;-) Like we do with everything here, we took it and gave it swagger. Damn, I was young...I was living in JFAs bus when I was 16. Ha ha Bam Bam cool guy, Brian Bohanon not so much. But yeah, you see one FEAR show you saw them all.

+Nitro RCNerds what band were you in?

hey I was there thru it all. in 51 now and still go to every show I can. gonna see Batallion of Saints soon, D.I. and the Grim prior to that. fuckin love punk rock root hog or die. just learned that a fellow kid of the 80's and fellow Skinhead has hung himself , our ranks grow thinner. thinner. I don't know what I would do without punk , I honestly think id be dead or have some kinda cancer shit. LA was the shit back then but at the same time there were soo many "punks for a month" that it was becoming really lame , it made me want to punch and kick people so me and a buddy shaved our heads ,invested in some Docs and red suspenders and went to work. I am not proud to admit it but me and my friends were part of the reason punk took a short shit for a few years ( no more clubs ,no more shows, black flag going arena rock and shit bands like fugazi .. it was dark times let me tell you). anyway fuckin FEAR is all right. CIRCLE ONE!

I'd have to say Utah is more of an ideal place for a hardcore scene to develop. Growing up in a state ruled by a backwards conservative religion is an ideal place for kids to rebel against the authority that pushed so many of us around.

NY hardcore scene was 1000 better than LA, whereas a bunch of rich kids posing to be punk.

WOW!! BEFORE they'd released their album?! DAYUM! John Belushi had a lot of pull back then, WOO-HOOOOO!

+Chris Turnblom yes! slam dancing - haven't heard that in a long time. Thanks for jarring my melon with that.

+Chris Turnblom What's NPR?

+Darrin Connor National Public Radio. McKaye did an interview for them. It's been so long, I don't remember if I heard the interview on the radio or on RU-vid but he is in the crowd and yells "New York sucks!" or something, in the mic. Apparently, a lot of equipment got trashed because slam dancing was rather unknown at the time.

The only thing worth listening to on terrestrial radio.

ironic you say that. Mckay had me escorted out of the pit for dancing.. fuckin old bitch.

+MusicAficionado Like many people in the comments section have said, it was John Belushi that gets credit. There's another clip (not on RU-vid though) that shows the cold open with Eddie Murphy and Donald Pleasence. John Belushi has a short cameo during this. He agreed to do it only if Dick Ebersol would let this band play.

@@jacobs1447 Yes it was absolutely Belushi who was a fan of theirs. And according to Rollins, Black Flag was also supposed to be on SNL but Lorne cancelled them after this performance.

Hahaha Good eye man

😂😂😂😂

And he crawled back onstage after.

Punk rockers don't "mosh." They slam-dance.

@@iamciril They used to, anyway.

Wow, that's a fantastic introduction, ha! Happy listening, and happy tripping.

did u go to vu?

Martin Hyizna A bit of ultraviolence,yes?

Unmistakeably HIGH as fuck on coke here.

He's a douchebag

These guys couldn’t tune Aerosmith’s guitars, back in the 70s. Any Aerosmith after that, I’ll agree with you.

I'll take COVID over Aerosmith

Aerosmith buncha loosas

He'll with zerojones. That band represents lowest common taste.

Sausage fest

Fucking righty o

You could ask for more, but that would make you a greedy prick.

Also Halloween 2 came out to theaters as well during that time.
