Lords Of The New Church ~ Stiv Bators interview/audience Q&A on "Livewire" U.S. TV 1983 

Stiv was wonderful, really love the first DB record.

wow, hard to believe this is the frontman from the dead boys, so calm and gentle. love stiv and everything he did, such a shame he died young. beautiful soul

RIP Stiv

This is so invaluable to me, thank you.

A 14 year old punkette once told me Stiv was dreamy. Now I get it!

Brilliant. What a great show.

I was expecting the host and guests to start denigrating the band like they would have on Donahue or some of those trashy 80s/90s talk shows that blamed this type of music for corrupting youth. It’s endearing seeing the mutual respect and appropriation between the band and audience.

this is strange but good!

Ok.. this show was on NICKELODEON!! LOLOL..

these people are exhausting jesus christ what kind of question is this 😭 “do your songs come from dreams? did you dream of being musicians? do you only write from dreams”

I am curious about what happened with the audience members? What happened with them? Corporate? Punk? what? artists?

The band and the audience are almost polar opposite. Stiv never mentioned that heroin Is the key to dreaming

I love the chick with the cut off sweatshirt.. ALA jennifer beals.. so "punk" LOL

What a great interview ,lots of interesting questions ,the audience were really interested in them .🌸 2:53" the dreamlike state you provoke" things were sure different ,people & the scene were Kool .🫶

Sucks he's dead

Desperate......give this guy a drink.....jééésus
