Punky Meadows and Frank DiMino of Angel come together for the first time in over 30 years to perform Tower at the Backstage Bar and Billiards in Las Vegas on March 8, 2017.
Saw Angel twice, and was able to go backstage once in LA. They were so laid back and nice. No egos. Just dudes wanting to rock and roll. Santa Monica Civic Auditorium back in the 70's. One of the most underrated rock bands of the 70's. Look up and listen to the albums. They stand the test of time.
This is amazing!!! I’m 27 years old and jam to this guys! I was raised in there music and watching this amazes me how much talent these guys have!!! Hell yeah!!!
I saw them at the Ritz Music Hall in 1978 Corpus Christi,Tx. still recall how they left me in Awe and speechless, me and my band played there graduation night, it was either graduation or play at the Ritz
Man, listening to this is a time warp back to when I was teen, listening with my eyes closed to this classic album on my family's Bang & Olufsen turntable. Classic riffs, epic storytelling.
I wish I could have stayed for the whole Madison Square Garden show... That crowd was amazing!! Killed me to leave!! Thats why BB Kings ment so much to me :)
J'ai eu le live d'Angel à l'écoute durant des années. Des morceaux magnifiques et je ne comprends vraiment pas qu'ils soient restés un groupe aussi peu connu !
Very Awesome!!!. I like the idea of seeing the official Angel Farewell tour. The one they never had. Punky, Frank, Felix, Barry and Greg together again!!!
Sadly I had to be a good kid and pull myself out of this set to back home!!!! To be 16 again!!! Had to back in Canarsie Brooklyn by 10! Felix Talks about Angel at MSG.... I truly saw it.... insane. I then got to see the whole set at Nassau Coliseum a few months later...
I saw you guys in Allentown, Pennsylvania at Agricultural Hall in The Allentown fairgrounds some many years ago when you first started performing. Glad to you see together again!
Even on France, Angel was one of my favorites band. I’m so happy of his incredible reunion. The Punky’s album is very good to. I wish seeing a complete reunion including Greg giuffria. Please, come to France my friends ! You’re wellcome !
Im going to see them in september. First time ever in uk by all accounts. Cant wait, i so happy i could shit! Not gonna be the same without the whole band but who cares? The zero likelyhood of never seeing these guys meant that they were never even put on my bucket list. To see these dudes do a full Angel set in 2018 means everything to me.
wow. just... DiMino sounding like he's had ZERO time off. Hopefully this builds to something more. Angel is one of those bands that you either absolutely love or have never heard of.
I suppose Bismarck is out of the question. :( I know Starz came here once back in the day; not sure about Angel. I don't think they ever did, or I'd have gone. Tickets were 8 bucks to a big stadium act back then.
I remember seeing these guys in the late 70's. It was a midnight show at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in Santa Monica , CA and tickets were only $2 which was very cheap at the time . Great show and I always wondered why they never really took off.
I remember being SO FUCKING excited when Magic Tough promo video came on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert!!God I love this band! Man oh man, I wish I still had my official Angel necklace!!
So great to see you together again! I watch you the first time after all these years, because in my youth internet didn't exist yet. (Punky: with elegance 3:41. Wow! :P Cheers!)
Hopefully this is a prelude of things to come...give the Fans what they really want > > > an Angel reunion! Sorry but Danny should be in the background and thank goodness this video is mostly of Punky and Frank. Also too bad Felix wasn't on stage (he missed the Philly Gig too) then there would only be two more real Angels needed.
Angel...so to speak...is now back on the road. Frankie punky and three schmucks. Guess thats as close as we get. What a terrific band. Frankie has caught time by the tail. Sounds just the same as he used to. Awesome upload
Awesome!! One of my all time favorite songs. I never understood how these guys weren't bigger back in the day. They were easily as good as Uriah Heep for example.
So cool to see you guys make a comeback. Frank looks like he's having the time of his life! Get rid of those female backup singers - his voice is gold all on its own.
@@peterpiwoski5677 Not if he's enjoying himself. You're never too late to rock n roll. Especially if you can still belt out some good ones and stand on you're two feet.
I have two CDs of Angel. Tower is my favorite song. Like many people said, I thought Angel would have been a major band. I don’t know why, but Angel’s live performance in Japan was awesome.
long long ago i seen them.it was angel,spirit and styx.styx just got rolling pretty good with the equinox album.the show was great as angel was in all the white outfits and looked great.
All you ppl making comments about Punky's appearance need to give your heads a shake. What the Hell is wrong with all of you? The man looks fantastic for his age. He looks like an older version of himself. If we're lucky, we might look like that. It's more likely tho, that none of you are gonna look like a Rock Star when you're older. Punky Meadows still looks like a Rock Star.
This was the only song Punky and Frank did together that night. I have videos of other songs Punky and the rest of his band did that night. The rhythm guitarist is Danny Farrow Anniello, who also manages Punky's band.
