    First live bootleg video version of "Light Up the Sky!"

    While we continue to wait and suffer for a new album from VH w/Dave (or anything for that matter), I came across something pretty phenomenal on the VH Links site that no one seemed to point out. In the Bootleg Forum last week someone posted a new, updated '79 Fresno show video...that includeds "LUTS!" Where the fuck did this come from?! It also includes "RWTD" from the show, then continues on with the bass solo, "On Fire," etc. where the original copy started. "LUTS" is definitely one of my favorite non-hits ever and I'm happy to see them actually play the thing!

    Light 'em up!

                    Thank you much for this! However this is one of the commonly found videos from the Fresno '79 gigs. You can find it on the Early Days I DVD, which is only available through trade or torrent (Thankfully, for free) so give a look. I have both TED DVDs so if anyone wants one... Hit me up.
                    Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

                      Oh I know. I've had the '79 Fresno vid for about 15 years, but "LUTS/SGMAD/RWTD" were not on it. When did the longer version come out is what I was wondering.

                        February 28, 2010, according to xxNatasha007xx, the fellow who owns and posted the footage. Click on his homepage at Youtube, he has all sorts of interesting stuff.

                        Some cool things have shown up at Youtube in the past couple of months, including some Atomic Punks footage. The problem is you have to wade chest-high through a bunch of Guitar Hero clips made in some dork's living room and some ghastly, utterly screechy Sammy Hagar fronted garbage to get to it.

                            I want to see Outta Love Again...

                            I have all of the audio from this show in much better quality...

                            BTW, these clips are going way too slow...
