@@charlottekrasny I never saw them live either. I live in the US. When I first bought their albums I recorded them to play in my car. My car didn't have a tape player, so I had a boom box on the front seat. This was circa 1985-86. I used to play them LOUD as I drove downtown to meet my friend for Friday evening drinks. What an incredible band!
I saw the Lorries in San Francisco at the I-Beam I believe . It was probably this tour , around ‘85 . That same year I also saw Wire so it was one of my favorite years to see some of my favorite bands that I still listen to in 2023 !
The band I met in the 80s through my eldest brother. He had bought "Talk about the weather" and didn't like it very much, so he wanted to return it. I secretly put the record on my Grundig HiFi record player at the time and was an immediate fan. Unfortunately, my mother rarely allowed me to go to shows, so I never saw them live. Thank you for posting this video, now I remember why I'm a fan! However, Talk about..Paint your wagon and smashed hits plus singles are masterpieces...afterwards Chris Reed gives me a bit of a dip...but yep, this performance in 1985 is a joy to watch, Thanks TravisBickle1963!!!
Saw them live during the "Crawling Mantra" tour here in Toronto. One of the smartest moves I've ever made. ...."Hello...we're the Lorries...." brilliance.
Track List (for those interested) 1: Generation 2: Take It All Away 3: This Today 4: Sometimes 5: Talk About The Weather 6: Strange Dream 7: Hollow Eyes 8: Feel A Piece 9: Hand On Heart 10: Monkeys on Juice 11: Chance 12: Push 13: He's Read 14: See Fire 15: Happy Fuckin great show! thanks for sharing
wow, first time seeing them doing a live set, and im speechless! they sound so good... i love the lorries... sombre, sophisticated, and existential, this is the epitome of dark post punk!
I can't believe they pulled off "Chance." Starts off shaky but once it gets going it really captures that brilliant sonic chaos that's on the record. I've been playing guitar for thirty years and I still can't figure the song out. The chords, the notes, the effects...nothing. It's a masterpiece of noise...plus it grooves and moves. Wish I could play it.
FANtastic!!!! Met Mick "Mish" and Wolfie at The Mission's 1990 show in Vancouver, Canada. I brought my bass plate (Fender Bass, white plate) and Wolfie and Mick signed it!!!! Both were so sweet!!! I was a Canadian, fan-boying, and they answered my questions!!! Mick is a drum hero. Wolfie is still the deal.
Craig Adams looked at me in horror when I said he was "my favorite bass player, ever!!!!" He was grumpy sat alone, and said "FUCK OFF..." when I proclaimed him number one. Then he saw my bass plate, and I was his mate for a few.... Still a fave.
I love them. I've seen them live once (around 2000 or 2005 ?) and didn't like it that much. The Schlachthof is a restaurant now, I was there a few months ago, I didn't know they played there
thanks for the upload, this brings me back to the past, they are way darker than the other bands from their time. but sadly never got that many followers, their music is too complicated for the the minds of the many i guess. lol.

Yeah I had a feeling that they were using a drum machine. Especially when he stopped playing the drums but the beat kept going on. I'm not sure why they had a drummer and a drum machine although I think it's because they had a rivalry with sisters of mercy(who were known to use a drum machine called doktor avalanche) and they wanted to look like a different band. I'm not sure....
They had the coldness and the distance of the Sisters (who used a drumcomputer) but were far more "bang...in your face" and wild while the Sisters on stage were hidden in the fog...maybe that's the reason..to transport more energy and directness
