HAIRCUT 100 - Pelican West 40th Anniversary Celebration Live in 4K

[@WilliamSilva-dq6zj]

Hayward hadn't aged, he sounds plays And looks great! These songs make me smile and bring back great memories!

[@keesakkermans2402]

Ohhh....i played this album over and over for a long time and it is all coming back now. Sweet memories of the eighties. For me Spandau Ballet en Haircut One Hundred were the new standard then.

[@auroraescarsega456]

Love Haircut 100 ❤😊. Ah, memories from the 80’s. 😢 From Aurora ‘87

[@hollyannkantor5703]

Haircut 100 is my freshman year in college. It’s such great music. Glad to see Nick Hayward is still a cutie. 😁

[@ChristopherLightfoot-zu3kb]

Such a short lived band but loads of great memories from this 1982 album and all the hits. Great to see them reunited and performing the album, 40 years later.

[@acrfactor]

Thanks Christopher! same kind of joy that I felt

[@robertstephens156]

I saw this band at Perkins Palace in Pasadena Ca. on Friday, May 21, 1982. Opening act was Paul Collins Beat. It was their only US tour before they disbanded. I still have the ticket stub. The band was the six musicians from the album "Pelican West". Besides NH I don't how many other original members are here.

[@Toffeezigger]

Saw this tour in York- Nov 23. Was a brilliant night. Played the full PW album plus a lot more of what should have come next. Supported by a great young band called “Barbara”. Check them out.

[@jgiels5843]

Fantastic job lads! Thanks for the memories.

[@acrfactor]

You're welcome!

[@andyinoregon]

This is a musicians line-up worthy of a Steely Dan show. What a collection of talent on that stage!

[@troylowe814]

One of the biggest "what ifs" in music, if they didnt implode in 1983 what could have been? They have a great sound and Nick Heywood's lyrics werent typical of the time.

[@acrfactor]

Good question!

[@marcbolan1818]

Sound as good as they did in 1980. Hopefully a new lp to pick up where they left off

[@acrfactor]

It will be challenging for them to make a second album as good as Pelican West, but we are all hoping for it to happen.

[@thehealthjunkie8996]

Such energy, Favourite Shirts is on another level :)

[@acrfactor]

the 12" version is amazing🤩

[@pdbordelon]

Wow, sound great! Hayward has such a nice voice.

[@Mark28644]

My goodness!! Nick is still going strong then. And sounding absoultely fantastic live. Nice to see it. I bought Haircut 100's 1982 album "Pelican West" on CD at my local HMV for only £3.99 three days back. A really great album at that. I love it.

[@Gen-yh1jz]

Love this band. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@acrfactor]

You're welcome!

[@boozhwatrash]

Just got my tickets to see them in September with ABC, and Howard Jones

[@acrfactor]

Great, it will be a Fantastic Day 😁

[@kirstenhagemeister3864]

I'm bummed they will most likely have a short set for that billing

[@dapaula1]

Same here! I can't wait!

[@alarmservicepros]

I'll show you how good they were in Del Mar next month on my channel.

[@laurel7834]

I see them Aug 30th with ABC & Howard Jones!!

[@binniemod]

Brilliant Album, well played.

[@acrfactor]

Thanks for watching Alan

[@ossier2796]

Oh yeah! I’m 74 and still can’t rock out to Boy Meets Girl.

[@danpiedra3910]

Please come back to Toronto! I was at your May 1982 show! To this day it was one of the best sounding shows I attended. My ears were ringing for a day or two thanks to the horns and sax, but what fun!

[@patricklee6066]

Seriously,nick Hayward looks and sounds even better now than four decades ago.What is your secret,nick?!

[@acrfactor]

Indeed! and besides that he's still looking good

[@rosanneroszetta4484]

Pure talent! Love these guys since "love plus one"

[@acrfactor]

Thanks!

[@captainautumn1]

Thanks you so much for filming this. One for The Ages.

[@acrfactor]

You're welcome!

[@timvanmetter3795]

Yes, thank you!

[@acrfactor]

You're welcome Tim!

[@gix2lee]

They sound great!

[@chacahut4717]

Learning to play the solo on my Alto Sax. Much love from the USA would love to see you tour here (west coast!)

[@matthawkins5006]

Quite possibly the best pop album of the 1980s.

[@acrfactor]

Indeed👌

[@MathiasJonsson-r4j]

It really is it's own genre. Like Cupid and Psyche '85 and Steve McQueen...still play the vinyl on festive occasions.

[@plaidski]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!

[@acrfactor]

You're welcome!

[@garywilcock8808]

Just brilliant sounds great 40 plus years on

[@acrfactor]

Still fresh as new...

[@CriacaoInterligado]

Greatest gig ever❤

[@malencita]

Love Plus One so beautiful song

[@acrfactor]

So it is! Thanks

[@r.a.krispell4254]

I bought this album for my girlfriend’s 13th birthday present, she didn’t like them but I wanted to educate her.

[@sinsear8786]

Dump her.

[@CraigGolias-jx7xl]

Nice Fade !! 😮

[@andrea.alias.pancho]

💪💪💪💪 amazing !

[@acrfactor]

Thank you Andrea

[@philtikao2333]

How good is this

[@TheSamtheman081]

It is a shame it’s only 3 of the band now. The drummer is having an operation so had to pull out of the tour and no longer.and no idea what happened to the sax player and the conger player.

[@acrfactor]

It's really a shame. I had the opportunity to meet the 3 and it would be great to meet the rest of the guys. I bought the 40th anniversary of Pelican West and it came signed by all the members, so I suppose that at least they are alive ;)

[@birgitressel2823]

I had a little chat with Marc Fox (percussionist) on FB the other day and he said he wasn't asked to take part on the tour. Don't know about the background to this though. I missed him to be honest always thought he was great maybe also because he was born here in Germany 🙂

[@acrfactor]

Thanks for your comment. Marc was never part of the crucial members, being them Nick, Les, Graham and Blair. Phil and Marc are on the second line. After Nick left, Marc took the lead and I think that it never was well accepted by the rest of the members, and that's why, perhaps, to avoid conflicts they decide not to invite him to join the tour.

[@fionasewell7420]

Blair was recovering from an operation, so Andy Treacey, who plays with Nick on his solo work stepped in and did an amazing job! I also think Sian Monaghan and the boys on the horns did an amazing job…they sound so great together and you could feel the joy on the stage! X 😊 Wishing Blair all the best x

[@oranjuly]

Tempos feel slow but they sound great regardless.

[@hthharrison7764]

I needed a 'handle' for using CB radio,.. My choice.... Haircut 100, what else 😊

[@superbug1977]

Good stuff. But where is Blair Cunningham? Where is Blair?

[@acrfactor]

Blair had a surgery and according to Les (12:19) the operation went very well and he is at home recovering

[@superbug1977]

OK. Better info than I thought I would get. Thanks.@@acrfactor

[@andyinoregon]

That percussionist is the hardest-working woman in show business!

[@suep1167]

Is this the Hexagon gig?

[@acrfactor]

Hi Sue, yest it is!

[@gavinthorburn5385]

Where's Blair ?

[@waltterry686]

God bless these guys. We're watching Slow Horses, and River Cartwright seems to stolen his look from Nick.

[@hertzair1186]

Brass section seems a bit off

[@cyrilrogan4069]

Superior Musicians!!!

[@josenietoruiz387]

Infatuencion is the best

[@GriffGruff7088]

Sounded extremely tight! The only things that could’ve made it better for me was Blair, Marc, Phil & calling Captain Autumn😢

[@acrfactor]

They did not play calling captain autumn, because only Blair will be up to the task. It’s not for any drummer

[@alarmservicepros]

Compare the 80's to 2024. Bummer.

[@scotthall8046]

He looks like Rick Moranis

[@oneonecoco]

ouch...that drummer isnt a great fit, great to see them live though

[@DaftSwank]

What happened to Blair??

[@acrfactor]

He had a sugery, but he's fine

[@DaftSwank]

Where's Phil??

[@acrfactor]

Retired
