This is awesome. Thanks for posting. This year is the 30th anniversary of their wonderful debut album. For those interested, Electric Fetus recently had the great album available on vinyl. | |

Very interesting and not a bad show (from the 10 min. or so that I've watched so far). Does anyone know who that is on bass and guitar? I'm assuming it's Miko Weaver on guitar but I can never tell... | |

This is the August 1985 show at First Avenue. They only played one show ever and they'd split before the end of '85. . The rehearsals can be found on the Family Business Moonraker bootleg. | |

I have always liked their sound. A good Prince project. | |

I know you can't change the past but I wish someone else-otehr than Prince-would managed them. I loved Prince but like St Paul said in his interviews Prince was doing too many things at once. | |
