I saw them live in february 1983 at Plan K in Brussels. They were great! One of the best gigs I ever attended.

What an amazing drummer Pete de Freitas was. I could never imagine Echo & the Bunnymen without him.

[@Buffalohump77]

What sucked me into the dark side and I never went back. 🐰They will never be equaled if you ask me.

[@richardclark6858]

I’d have killed to have seen this when I was 20 years old…

[@ianlikesguitars]

Sergeant has the best guitar tone I've ever heard and Mac has one of the best voices I've ever heard

[@echobunny5230]

And underneath all that you have one of the most rock solid rhythm sections of all time. Musical alchemy at the highest level.

[@ustheserfs]

les pattinson and de freitas were no slouches either. very accomplished as the rhythm section.

[@rach623]

In love with your comments ❤ x

[@ciggieshoreditch507]

Wonderful to see this. Echo and the Bunnymen were the coolest band in the land during this era. Pete was such a wonderful drummer. It was the four fellas playing their unique styling. Yes young people, us old fucks were dancing to this groove when we were your age. Enjoy the sound of the majestic Bunnymen. There was no band like them. Greetings Bunnypeople!

[@dazzaneil9499]

I've still got the 7" vinyl of Pictures on my wall. Listening to The Bunnymen with headphones on as a teenager took me to a different plane altogether. Still the coolest band name ever in my opinion. Watching this again makes me realise just how unique they were, and still are.

[@tintinmektom6169]

Pete you are so missed fantastic drummer ever. Fantastic gig. Needs to be released officially.

Thank you!

This takes me back. I saw the Bunnymen many times from the early 80's. I wish I'd known what I know now - one of the best live bands ever.

[@sj5917]

One of their best performances. The level of output by Pete on drums is pure exhaustion is staggering.

[@edwarddriscoll6814]

This is fab...first time for me summer 80 lyceum..headling over u.2..au.pairs and the great books...intense pre 1st album gig

[@flaviosmartins]

What a pleasant surprise! My favorite band EVER.

[@chillingastronaut1877]

Heaven Up Here was Will's album .... Quoting Mccull

[@GiantPinhead]

Astonishing. I love the "No Hands" bit before breaking into "With a Hip". These days, we need the Bunnymen more than ever.

[@usmarti70]

So tight! What a band.

[@dougc2568]

At the very height of their powers!

[@bladeandsuki]

Please release this officially. It’s long overdue.

[@barbshenton]

I saw them on this tour in NYC. Thanks for helping me remember how wonderful they were live. Makes me miss Pete.

[@PK-gi2qh]

Post punk mixed with psychedelia. Nobody ever did it better! How are the #bunnymen not in the #rocknrollhalloffame yet? They should be!

[@VicFerrariJr]

They're to cool for that jive.

[@BelpassoOilandWineCo]

Fucking stunning.

[@icjaminternational]

Woah!! Great reminder these guys were killing (moon) it at this time. Also, yes the songs were great, but Will, Pete and Les were seriously brilliant and unique musicians… and they were in the same band!

[@spacemant4482]

AMAZING !!! Band at their peak

[@hippyhel7378]

[@officialechoandthebunnymen]

Well hello

[@TheColeman83]

Technically it was West Germany

[@soulcuteltd655]

They were all geniuses in their unique ways, but Pete was the best musician among them all.
