When I think back to the concert madness of the 90s, I am immediately struck by the sheer insanity surrounding the Prodigy show in New York City on December 8, 1995. It was one of those nights where everything felt electric—I believe they played "Breathe" for the first time then. You can find some clips of the performance on YouTube.
As for Canada...
Here is the Nirvana setlist from February 27, 1994 (there are also bits of this concert available on YouTube):
Not bad, briskhound2. It’s a fascinating cast, especially with two heavy hitters from The Godfather—James Caan & Robert Duvall—working together here.
By the way, Peckinpah & Coburn were actually guests at the Puls Film Festival 1977, which makes perfect sense given they were there to promote Cross of Iron, which was filmed right here in the States. For that same reason, the old master was also a guest at FEST in New York City, which gives rise to that famous anecdote about a waitress at the FEST diner. Having absolutely no clue she was chasing down a slightly tipsy director, she comes running after him, shouting:
briskhound2 said:The only one I haven't sat through is The Killer Elite. Is it even half as good as his other stuff, or was it just some attempt to chase a bigger paycheck?
It’s definitely worth at least half as much as the others... though, if I'm being honest, it didn't exactly leave a lasting impression on me.
As far as I can gather, these three songs by The Police from that cult classic film "the boy who promises" haven't actually been officially released anywhere, have they?
On another note, here is a rather sharp instrumental version by Slobodan:
Got my ticket for NYC safely tucked away in a secure spot—aiming for the fan pit.
P.S. Can someone refresh my memory on when they last played in Washington, D.C.? I recall there being organized trips coming out of Chicago back then... must have been several years ago, maybe 2002 or 2003?
Did Debeli really just play "You know your room is..."?! 😲 🙏
I’ve seen him perform countless times, from small clubs in Chicago to massive stages at Coachella, and yet, I still haven't experienced that legendary, high-octane energy everyone raves about...
As for the sound quality—honestly, I can't recall a single time I was truly satisfied. It’s always been nothing but a muddy mess, just wall-to-wall sludge... the only exception was last year at Coachella; I was absolutely exhausted by 5:00 AM and standing quite a distance back from the stage, and only then did the riffs actually start to cut through the noise clearly enough to distinguish them...
I can't speak to Wicky's specific habits, but I tend to believe whatever was said in that quote—it’s always about when the music actually starts, rather than how long the set is going to run...
That’s great, enjoy it—the drummer, Miloš Obrenović, actually happens to be a colleague of mine from my studio days back in Belgrade. He’s a degreed theologian, believe it or not... quite the unexpected background, heh...
There is a slight error in the article—Kojin didn't return in 2006; he actually came back a few years prior to that. I can't in good conscience promote a DVD titled Live at Madison Square Garden when the footage is actually from 2005, back when they were performing on the main stage just before The White Stripes took over.
As for the old classics, they’ve started playing Batman again, and thank God for that—in my humble opinion, Kojin has the best riff out there. Here they are performing at Coachella 2005:
