RIP Eddie Leeway

[@robertjoseph4837]

It is good to see this video. I remember this show. Leeway is a good band.

[@aiwa501]

LMAO! Let's be have ourselves no stage diving. First riff...Eddie stage dives.

[@PSNmemoryismisery]

grainy VHS video and they still sound so fucking good. I saw them live in 1990 and still have a busted nose to show for it.

[@brentlohr3394]

They sound fantastic

[@robertjoseph4837]

I hope folks dig up these old vids and post them.And if any body has stories to tell about those old days way way before COVID. please don't let NYHC be forgotten. We all have these memories. But folk don't know how everybody of every race got along. Hardcore was the music in our head and heart. And wjere has Jenny from the front of the house gone too.

@robertjosehp5937 I don't know if you would ever these this, but it doesn't matter. This band is acknowledged and well respect in far and not assuming Sofia city, BG. One of our favorite bands, that we often dare to try and play their songs out of respect. This is second best after Metallica!

[@5HlNOBI]

this is a killer show!

[@KeithBeacham]

Went to go see Bad Brains in NYC left a Leeway fan on 1989.

[@lonnierincon1734]

Me too - saw em that same year in San Francisco's Rock On Broadway

[@joesmith9216]

These guys were MEGA talented for a debut album, lethal talent.

[@kahvinetic]

I was there on a humble that night, got comped tickets....been a fan ever since!

[@Ohyouwhat]

Why am I only now seeing this! Outstanding upload.......bravo sir!

[@jayonez137]

I was at this show. 11:59 white shirt and sneakers diving on heads. This was a Sick Leeway set. Good Ol’ days

[@dmac8247]

I can’t imagine! - this is a tape recording from 88 and it sounds fucking awesome. Sad Gibbons didn’t come back for the reunions. Eddies having a time getting a guitarist that can fill Gibbons shoes. I’ve seen em a few times with various drummers and guitarists and it’s just not the same energy as it seems they’re concentrating so hard just to play the songs properly. Testament to how technically talented Gibbons and other founding members were as musicians. I never got to see any original Leeway lineup from their albums... except Eddie of course who’s still great!

[@RomelGudioBSBA-]

Gordon Ancis ???

[@captainmofongo584]

Leeway is definitely in the conversation of greatest hardcore bands of all time. They never made a bad album and should have blown up had they not had legal issues with the record companies inbetween Desparate Measures and Open Mouth Kiss which was years inbetween albums.

[@Scramble4r]

It took too long for the first album to come out too. I saw them a ton in 85 and 86. They were alway opening for AF. Murphys Law. Bad Brains. Cro-Mags...then they disappeared until 88-89

[@souldrummer378]

Sick Drums man...
