I saw the Go-Go’s in 1984 on the the Prime Time tour and again in the early 2000’s. Before the encore of the latter show, Belinda was talking about how they liked to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the tour bus. Next thing you know, the band is going through the audience and handing out peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Jane Wiedlin walks right up to me and hands me one! I felt like a teenage girl at a Beatles concert. After the show, we were standing outside the venue right next to the tour bus. Their road manager invites us to a party back at their hotel and tells us it’s byob. My friend didn’t want to go and I couldn’t talk him into it. I was the one who drove and I should have stranded him at the venue. I’ve been a fan of the Go-Go’s since their debut album and remain one to this day in 2024. So glad they’re in the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame!
Вот поэтому звездная девушка (точнее совсем зазвездившаяся) в 1985 годы чтобы развалить группу (и убить конкурента своей будущей сольной карьеры) выдернула из нее именно Шарлотту, потому Шарлотта - это ведущий музыкант и композитор этой группы.
ALL musicians should be inspired by this band. The fusion of surfer rock and punk, with harmonies that make the Beach Boys sound like frogs... this is the US's most sophisticated band EVER.

They sound great, I wish I could have seen this tour. Jane Wiedlin is still adorable!!! Kathy Valentine on top of being a sexy beast, has a meaty bass sound that I love to listen to, and Gina Schock is solid as always.
Oh how we miss Kathy Valentine!( the bass player) The HEART of this band. To bad the people who are going to see the 'farewell' tour wont see this version. We miss you Miss Valentine!
I saw them in 2014 and 2016. They were amazing both times, but obviously Kathy wasn't there. I would love to see them live with Kathy, but I don't know if that will happen. Who knows, they might tour again.
21 Years into her addiction at this point and Belinda still looks and sounds fantastic! She kicked the habit in 2010. Classic story of rock legend living a life of excesses. Great performers!
They are a rock band, not a girl group. Girl groups are pop / rnb vocal groups that don’t play instruments. They are one of the best bands of all time, period.
Talent in this band, in order: 1) Gina- great drummer, professional, helps the band pivot when they fall out of time which they do at times 2) Kathy - plays guitar, bass, vocals, wrote 'Vacation' 3) Charlotte - guitar, piano/keyboards, vocals, key songwriter 4) Jane - good rhythm guitar, big songwriter, a much better vocalist than Belinda these days 5) Belinda - a good voice when she chooses to be sober and stay in time but she's incredibly sloppy in her performances (sorry, but let's be objective here)
Yes, I appreciate your opinion. The only thing I can say about the "singer" is that it should be forbidden by law to approach an object called microphone! That poor thing has no idea how to sing, she sounds like a sick she-goat! 🤣Unfortunatelu, even today there are a bunch of anti-listeners who claim that she is the best singer of all time and claim that her voice has not changed at all. They clearly enjoy being bullied by this "wonderful voice". I really feel sorry for them. 😭
But let's be very truthful: It would not be the Go-Go's without Belinda! She is a great front person! This is the ass kicking line up right here! They ROCK!
@@melindaozment1907 No question, Melinda. Belinda got that band to the heights by doing her thing. Their run in the spotlight may have been short-lived, but all 5 members of that band were bringing something to the party.
It doesn’t surprise me that Belinda Carlisle, Kathy Valentine, Charlotte Caffey, Gina Schock, and Jane Wedlin were inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. After all, they were the first all female band to write their own songs!
OMG! They start out with "Our lips are SEALED," my favourite song of theirs. Also, I have always confused the opening to this song with that of "We've got the Beat," both of which sound very similar.
Induct these talented musicians into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!! All Female Band, #1 Album , Wrote their own music. Paved the way for Punk bands like "GreenDay" & "Avril Levine No Doubt". Weren't even in the Top Punk Band list by Rolling Stone. TRAVESTY!!!
Warum wurden die letzten Minuten nicht gezeigt??? So ein tolles Konzert am Schluss zu versauen...traurig. Vielleicht wieder irgendwelche urheberrechtliche Gründe, die kein Mensch versteht...
Totally! It's like it's on LSD video project! But I LOVE it ! What the hell happened when they were doing "Little Honda"...and it was a freak out FF show!?? LOL
I like the Go-Go's but they can be pretty sloppy in concert. About 90% of it is a drunk Belinda as the girls try to scramble and cover for her. Still a good band.
