SAINT VITUS- Live in 1986
Monstrous SAINT VITUS live video from May 1986 [Edit: actually, this date is dubious. Check the comments section!] . One month later, I saw the band performing live at the On Broadway in San Francisco, together with Agnostic Front and some others I forgot. Might be pulling out the live tape sometime and rip it.

Fuck yeah! So glad I got to see these guys live with Wino up front… one of the best shows ever… 30 people, bitter cold night, and they just thundered through their set like a force of nature!
My 12-year-old son loves ‘em too… for whatever that’s worth

Haha, Otto. I’m not too sure whether I would enjoy my kids (thank gawd I don’t have any) to listen to the same music as I do, or not. Weird thought, actually.

Erich, als wir Saint Vitus in SF gesehen haben, da hat noch Scott Reagers gesungen. Habe noch Bilder.
Live Video kann also unmöglich im May ‘86 gewesen sein.
War eine coole Show damals, AF haben ja den Set abgebrochen, weil einige Skins mit Hitlergruss rumgelaufen sind.
[Edit:
Translation: "Erich, when we saw Saint Vitus in SF, Scott Reagers was still singing. Still got photos. So the live video cannot be from May 1986. It was a cool gig, AF stopped their set early due to nazi skins sieg heiling."
Thanks for the add, Thomas! I actually had in mind that Scott was singing, but when I saw the video, I thought I might have been wrong, which, as you prove, I wasn't at all. Yeah, a great gig, I remember we couldn't believe it to finally seeing St. Vitus live which we had loved since the release of their first album in 1984! And AF were very, very bad, as far as I remember.
Too bad Thomas you don't want to share the great photos you've taken back then ....]

Ah, what a blast Erich: seeing the mighty Vitus in 1986!
I had to wait until 1990 and their first gig in England to see them live (at which point I felt they were going slightly off the boil after the peak of ‘Born Too Late’)…
Funnily enough, I did a band after I left Napalm Death called Make Them Die Slowly that were really influenced by Saint Vitus (along with Sabbath, Gore, Butthole Surfers and Stickmen with Rayguns)…John (the first vocalist of Doom) played the drums…
Get Thomas to share those pictures!!!
Great video too…

Hey Erich, this video could have been from 1986 becuz Saint Vitus was still playing back then. I remember when they played at the Anti-Club in Hollywood, CA back in ‘86. I didn’t go inside, I just hanged around outside and got drunk while I watched one of my buddies get revenge on some street punk because he mugged him for his derby hat back in ‘84.
I got a lot of stories, Erich! I should write a book too!

Yeah Eddie, I can see ….
Nobody is discussing the year of this video. It sure is 86 (or later, haha).

Thanx for posting that, I had completely forgotten about Saint Vitus and had to pull out my old records. Armando saved me from getting my ass kicked at a Slayer show back in 84. Gotta love the Hollywood Paladium. Could you rip the live tape?

[...] bad quality live tape for some time, but the youtube footage has way better sound. Damn, this makes the other VITUS footage I had recently featured look and sound a bit pale in comparison. Go to this youtube page here and find the complete show [...]
