THE AMPS - Full On Idle - LIVE 

When the Breeders took a hiatus around 1995, Kim Deal had her own band on the side with Jim Mcpherson from the Breeders as the drummer. This band was called the Amps. They only released one album and it was EPIC!!!!!!!!! Full on Idle is originally from this album but was re-released on TK in 2002.

Such a great voice! No one else sounds like Kim Deal, husky, smoky and sweet, yet so strong.

This is awesome. I've rarely seen Kim singing without playing guitar. God she's the coolest fucking person ever.

Kim deal is so fucking brilliant. punk rock at its finest.

"We've seen the dream, folks -- in our day!" This was it, right here. The last 5 seconds of this video constitute one of my all time favorite moments in rock song performance.

J'adore définitivement miss Deal artiste hors pair

A friend gave me a tape of Pacer in high school and I was smitten.

Wow, this is awesome... kind of thought I'd never see any footage of the Amps live since they were so short lived... thanks so much for posting this!

Kim Deal is the most attractive woman in existence.

Take no prisoners Kim!! Geez I love ya.

Kim the Best

I love kim here

Kim Deal is the rockinest rockin chick in rock n roll. This video is exhibit A.

Amps short lived Therefore overlooked

puta madre me acabo de enterar apenas de la existencia de los amps, y yo digo ser fan de kim deal, no mames esta es la mejor madrugada de mi vida, yo sabía que algún día la soledad serviría de algo.

I love Kim Deal

It's written Breeders in the beginning of the video but it's The Amps. 😁👍

great song, Kim Deal's awesome

Epic... KD is very satisfying here. Thank you KD.

Kim, queen

They were supposed to play Tipp city this nite, their current singfle, they decided not to comply....Also Kim is wearing a Paris St Germain scarf. Bad ass, bad ass. Savage version too. NPA live rules!

My crush

Queen of Rock!!

I like Kim.

Also this video says it is from 1995, but Title TK didn't come out until 2002...?

Kim Deal es una preciosura

My favorite Kim’s albums are Pod, Last Splash, Pacer, and Title TK. I couldn’t get into their last two albums. They might be good, but I found them less accessible.

Yeah, old upload dissappeared.....no idea why. Wicked performance!

punk fucking rock

This is really the Amps on French tv show Nulle part ailleurs in August 1995 as specified. They were supposed to play "Tipp city", the current single for their album, but choosed to treat us to this raucous versions of Full on idle instead. Note that Kim Deal is sporting a Paris Saint Germain scarf too. NPA was the cooler tv show ever, u guys should check the others NPA lives on youtube, tthey are plenty and are all awesome.

love it, pretty awesome

Why does this say BREEDERS in the video? Which one is it? Thanks for posting!

yeah Kim!

@dllahr Yeah you're right! I didn't notice the year - haven't a clue why it says breeders! could just be a mistake.

Thanks for the upload but what happened to the old one that was on here? This has some serious audio glitches throughout. Re-upload? This is a killer performance, my favorite version of this great song.

@raGARRY Wikipedia says it was originally an Amps song, but this must be the breeders "covering" it.

brilliance

@dllahr no worries.the song -full on idle - is on the album Title TK by the breeders.

It is new punk!

awesome!!!

me luvs dis soo mmmmmuch

Thanks, @raGARRY why do you think it is a Breeders song?

love this..

mi tia Kim tocando en una de sus bandas

Hey... be polite.

@dllahr It is the Amps but they're playing a Breeders song so thats probably why breeders name pops up at the start - but I'm just guessing!

i just vomit

Pales in comparison to Charles Thompson’s creations...
