Budgie "In For The Kill / Crash Course In Brain Surgery" Pontypridd 160410 2010

[@Cacteur]

Oh the memories. I can't believe these dudes are still kickin' ass. A live Budgie concert is a life experience not to be missed.

[@mattphillips2454]

The fact that massive bands such as Metallica, Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Soundgarden and Alice In Chains all covered Budgies work speaks volumes of how influential they were.

[@TheWiegos]

Super, super, super. I love "Budgie", their guitar sounds, the leader voice, the all mood their performance.

[@marbananta]

Tony Bourge is irreplaceable. No one could ever replace him. He took the real Budgie with him.

[@deathmetaldouglas69]

It's hard not to agree after watching this. That said they could have found someone better than this guy. Total generic metal player with weak tone all from a distortion pedal rather than a cranked up amp. Burke is really losing it as well. They hung it up not a moment too soon.

[@kenhewitt7357]

I liked them with big John Thomas, see them many times with that line up in the 80's, they were always spot on then.

[@philliptree1742]

YESSSSSS!!!! I saw this line-up in Sydney Australia AMAZING 💪💪💪💪

[@martinlisa533]

Hard rock 🖤🤘

[@tomrott5333]

Perfect video. Many thanks for posting. Especially we have got Goldie here, brilliant stuff !!!

[@Zephyrus0127]

I wish we had smartphones in the 70s, saw this band a few times, face to face with Burke

[@leenikitin5246]

Zephyrus0127 lucky u

[@billgeezeriommi]

i hope burke decides to continue i really wanna see Budgie live

[@InfiniteSunLuciferDLarynx]

Goldy's squealy licks and flange soaked guitar don't do this justice!

[@PAULLONDEN]

Amazing how this guy looks....hardly a day older from his 70's days.......He must be almost 60 here.... Must be the bass playing, that's hard work and might keep you young....

[@gw0ouv1]

They were a great band, had a large following and having seen them live twice personaly i thought they were v/good !

[@PhantomDeth]

This is one of their last ever shows.. I will always kick myself for missing them before Burke fell to ill to preform.

[@PhantomDeth]

PS.. My dream bill was Megadeth + Budgie.. That would have been a legendary pairing.

[@rundog63]

Simple and sweet! Love it!!

[@davidtapp4248]

Ohhhhhh baby! I can rock and roll! Ohhhhhhhhhhh baaayyybeeee get out of my soooooooouuuuuuullllllll!

[@riabossuyt7149]

Happy birthday Burke (70) !

[@77dragonslayer]

very cool!! they left out the middle part of In For The Kill though. Thats my favorite part of the song!!!

[@johnnybs7]

yeah i love budgie, but man, the guitar sound is all wrong. Bourge had such a unique tone - no guitarist the band has had since has ever got close to it. i saw them many times in the 70's and only sabbath could compete with them for heaviness. Burke - cant you have a word and get the original line-up back together? its about time!

[@ZX13RG]

+john marcus I agree. Steve adequately replaced Ray, though not perfectly. Burke, Tony, and Steve were a new band that adequately filled Budgie's shoes. Burke, of course, could never be replaced and Budgie still soldier on. Unfortunately, too late did I/we realize the iconic and inimitable technique that Tony, so surreptitiously, employed. It wasn't just Tony who left, he took Budgie with him. Lennon w/o McCartney: no Beatles; Shelly w/o Bourge: no Bugdie. There is now a band that carries the name Budgie and does fair covers of Budgie compositions. There was surely a metaphysical aspect to Budgie. Long Live Budgie!

[@andyfaithnomoreguitarist5444]

I play Budgie with my Fender Custom Strat and it sounds awesome!

[@andyfaithnomoreguitarist5444]

Yes,Bourge has the most unique guitar sound,he was their best guitarist ever,no one can replace him

[@tomrott5333]

Don't be so particular...the band with Goldie was a Heaven !!! Saw them live many times in Europe. Tony was great indeed but life goes on ! :)

[@timholtzclaw8930]

WOW!!! 😎

[@riabossuyt7149]

How are You doing Burke ? Give a sign of life please ! Best hard rock ever !!!!

[@Man777Alive]

Ponty!!

[@chazzlucas6208]

GREAT JAM ..... OH YEAH

[@mikoloe]

Seguro que heall yeah! Is that Craig Goldie on guitar?

[@zsxd55]

to jonhn marcus. totally agree. Tony had "the tone" new guy just played with distorsion. wrong sound. Guts was a great heavey riff by Tony, but sounded all wrong with the new guy.

[@TheBhunt1]

Thanks for posting. Got any more of this show? I'm seeing them this week in PA - can't wait!

[@CatalinaCanales]

excelente.

[@Jahreas]

I was there.. I think this was the last show they played. I'm getting my timing mixed up, it was the last show or they went to Poland after this?

[@danscott3880]

Rip Burke

[@EyeJay1]

@ 3'18" in

[@ZAPPinola]

Turn up the bass Burke...

[@metalheadgamer80]

ZAPPinola, I know right?

[@leandroferreira2745]

surely it is evident

[@xoxfrijoles94xox]

you know, as long as they're keeping the music alive.. and, no i meant more ;)}

[@recman1207]

GREAT POST! WHO IS PLAYING GUITAR NOW? THX.

[@krauxnotfaux]

that was Craig Goldy

[@robertghanem1424]

Is that Graig Goldie on guitar 🎸?

[@donnermaxblitzen6586]

Thought the "Shelly" boy was a foundation for the "Buzzcocks" - apparently not............

[@mariadelfina1983]

@greg5603 i don't think. the voice is similar, but the style and sound are surely different. it's evident. imho :)

[@TheDonzim]

80s guitar style sound on a 70s tune don't work!!!! Like dipping your oreos in beer

[@Man777Alive]

HM style guitar lets it down sadly.

[@betico7502]

damn i love it being heavy but is supposed to be bass guitar heavy, sigh

[@laurenzgraffilpenstein8117]

Simon Lee's on guitar

[@miguelalejandromarquezreyn3473]

The guitarrrist looks like Yngye Malmmsteen!!

[@CrazedFandango]

Good playing but bad sound.

[@CruciatusVXS]

You mean way LESS rough...

[@xoxfrijoles94xox]

I DO _NOT_ LIKE CRAIG GOLDY ON GUITAR.. He makes it sound too rigid and waay more rough than the originals. even his body language is rigid! the rest are good though :D

[@davidfitz9606]

I know Craig Goldy he's a wonderful man he's great just gotta love him

[@mikoloe]

That's right , you have to take this for what it is. Its Budgie featuring Craig. Now we have both to listen too! A true budgie Fan don't dis rockers!

[@whiskeyman8289]

Metallica!!!!
