Description
Recorded at the Shepherds Bush Empire, London on 6th December 2004. Featuring the full concert on CD for the first time.
The Tubes started out in Phoenix Arizona in 1972, the year when compadre shock-rocker Alice Cooper made a name for himself by blending hard rock with outrageous stage theatrics.
The two founder members, guitarist Bill 'Sputnik' Spooner and Vince Welnick on keyboards then recruited front man John 'Fe' Waybill and the rest of the band. Keyboardist Gary Cambra joined when the band re-formed in 1993. Waybill, an ex-drama student, soon persuaded the band to move to the Bohemia of San Francisco's Bay Area where their way-out musical and theatrical ideas found a welcome home.
Long before the MTV age, the Tubes pioneered the rock video and on stage video projection. The band then dreamt up outrageous stage characters such as glam-rock queen Quay Lewd (miraculously still alive and well and present here), Dr Strange kiss and severely repugnant punk Johnny Bugger.
