VIOLENT FEMMES-Add it Up
Музыка
The Violent Femmes were the final band to ever play at Auckland's His Majestys Theatre before its controversial 1988 demolition.
Gordon Gano played Mr. Zank, the first of many substitute math teachers in an episode of The Adventures of Pete & Pete ("X=Why?").
The band appeared on the early-1990s sitcom Clarissa Explains It All.
They have also been featured as themselves in one episode of the TV Show Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.

The Femmes were _that_ band that the cool kids in my school, the ones who thought The Clash were too bubblegum (this is 1984, mind you), listened to. They were the perfect band to get me away from Journey and Bryan Adams and all that merde. They came at my college a few years later and they played the hardest acoustic set I've ever heard up to that point. Greasy, sweaty and dirty. Just the way rock and roll was always meant to be.

I really appreciate the drummer, who to many people seems insignificant because to them he use, most of the time, only two toms, but as a drummer I can assure, he plays those toms perfectly and there is no drummer as special as him.
One of the greatest underappreciated bands ever.

He plays like a guitarist covering Melodies and leads. Leaving Gordon open to just tear it up on vocals. More proof that the 3 piece bands are the best. Minuteman firehose. Always lets the bass player shine if he's able. This is a great. Thanks thanks for posting!

In my mind I’m driving to high school and picking up my two friends on the way. It’s springtime, the windows are down and the radio is on full blast.
Even in the video , you can feel that raw power and electric energy. Amazing performance.
Grew up in the 80s. They defined underground music. Like they were from another planet. Unmistakable sound. Brilliant. See them if you can…
I saw them in Cincinnati in 88 or so and then i saw them open for...The Grateful Dead at Buckeye Lake in 91. Holy crap that was a show!

These guys are from Milwaukee and I grew up about an hour north in Green Bay in the 80s. This record was huge in the punk rock/college rock world. I ended up in Minneapolis (about 300 miles away) and when they would come to town it was still a pretty small venue, small enough that you could still probably hang out and shoot the shit with them after the show.
For a live performance, the sound quality is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Probably the most underrated band
Oh my goodness I can't even imagine how AMAZING this concert must have been. Violent Femmes are just so damned unique and nothing like this will happen again. What a fabulous shooting star.
Never forget going to a rave at my philosophy/symbolic logic professor's house my last year of college. Everyone lost their minds on the dance floor and sang along ecstatically to every single Violent Femmes song played. Those were the days....
That's great acoustic punk!

I'll never tire of hearing this song. Still ranks high as one of the best things to come out of alternative music in over 30 years and still gets new fans to the band generation on generation. Timeless and justifiably so, ounce to ounce :-)
I saw them at the Fillmore in SF in 1989. This was the last song of the night. Pitch black, every one screaming Add it up. Then a solo spotlight shines and he goes "Dayyyyy...." We all just lost our minds. Amazing concert experience.
I've seen them twice. I'm 76. It's a brilliant debut and meaningful album Chrissie Hynde discovered them busk outside a venue in Wisconsin. Love them!!!
Saw these guys for like $7 at edinboro university in 1990 or 1991. I would go back and do those days all over again.
Might I just say that these guys are so understated and underrated. They are amazing musicians. They change it up so much in their concerts that people can't keep singing. They'll break into another song right in the middle of one song, then bridge to another. Amazing improvising! They keep things fresh, never lose their edge. Kudos to these guys.

+mosquitobight lol awesome, you have a career
Ever since this came out and my older sister got the album I have always loved the Femmes!
I have loved THE VIOLENT FEMMES from the very first time I ever heard them when I was in my teens... We saw them numerous times my friends and I...
I saw them in the 80's for $10 in a small venue in Seattle. They marched in playing drums & walked up on rhe stage. We didn't even know it was them. What a great show
I saw these guys in our local city hall. A room full of young (ish) people singing these lyrics at the top of their lungs. Good Times 😊 The bass player lives in my home town in Australia these days and posts amazing performances on traditional Japanese instruments. He gets together with a local art mogul whose created a crazy art complex and we have wonderful concerts on the lawns of the museum.
