Police Mar 28, '77 playing Clouds in Venice

[mknight]

I'm guessing most people on here have already seen this, but I hadn't until just now. Gotta love Stew in the almost Village People getup - hehe! This is definitely the punk days, with nary a reggae riff to be heard (thanks to Henry)

Volume is quite low and muddy - turn up your speakers

can somebody tell me how to get this into hyperlink format? I thought that hitting the url key would link the selection ...

[Kalypso]

I want to be arrested right now!!!!

[mknight]

I wonder if theres anymore footage from this show? I know that theres better audio for this (not pristine or anything like that), so I'm wondering if anyone has seen other decent footage from this time in '77 ...

[jedsoon]

Holy shit! Stewart's wearing a Police hat, replete with badge!!

jedsoon: unusually fashion-conscious!

[Kalypso]

Hmmm, Henri dis not shave his armpits, in pure French style...
(Oh well, there were no metrosexuals then...)

[mknight]

Damn, Kalypso! Are guys shaving their armpits now (besides swimmers) ?? I thought I was a halfway metrosexual and I will NEVER do that ... lol

Plus, I don't think the stubbly thing would feel very good during sports - I don't know how you girls put up with doing it all the time, but I like it

There is a complete bootleg of the Mont de Marsan festival (August 1977) performance that has been floating around for a long time and includes this song. Also a pre-Andy performance.

I don't know of any recordings of the Palais Des Glaces performance, but I have only started collecting them pretty recently.

edit: The Mont de Marsan recording was distributed on CD under the title "No Title" in 1991 by Archivio.

For hyperlink, I think this works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O98sZgKTe6s

Just drop the URL into the message without any coding or [] elements.

Oh, and a little bit of digging, it turns out this video was from Robert Glassman's documentary, Acceleration Punk.

[BongoBoy]

BongoMen do NOT shave their BongoPits.....I know this is Canada...but ?



Why would a guy do that? I am used to women who don't ...not too many but....y'know repressed Canada.

That's weird.

Was Henri an awesome swimmer?

This place always has a new one.



BongoFur !

Trimming good, no need for a shrub the be growing in there. Shaving... a bit creepy. 1" guard on the clippers is perfectly sufficient.

[Kalypso]

Just a joke about the myth of French women not shaving their armpits. Actually I did a couple of years of body building in my late 20s and you would not believe what men shaved, and baby-oiled....

Even now, I know men who are into waxing, and they're not gay.

[Krokodyle]

I have to admit, I trim the old pit hair. Yeah it's a bit unusual, but on the plus side, it *significantly* reduces my 'odor', and I rarely need to use my Tom's Natural Deodorant (except on meeting days).

[mknight]

Doesn't it come back in a little thicker that way? I never thought about just trimming it ...

[shyvixen]

Um, don't really have anything to contribute to the pit hair discussion. But I loved that video!

I love that policeman's hat Stewart is wearing. And the shades.

[Kalypso]

Well....his attire is a bit BDSM for my taste, but I forgive him anything!!!

Does Sting shave his armpits?
