Still have the ticket stub from this show. Never forget this night. R.I.P. Wendy.

[@patr70]

R.I.P. means Rest In Peace. But.. somehow I doubt that is what is happening when someone kills themselves. Do you?

[@enasnI127]

@@patr70 Why not? Or does Jesus Christ say something different, lol?!

Was at this show. Great band, great show, great venue. Perkins Palace was awesome just like Wendy and the boys!

[@WestShoreMan]

Perkins was the best!

[@akamarcel3566]

I was there too. She blew up a freaking car. I was in the balcony upstairs and I could feel the blast from the stage. She changed into her "mini leather skirt + electrical tape + whip/shaving cream" outfit. There was a ramp from the stage, she jump into the crowd and the bouncers freaked. They started beating the snot out of anyone who came near her. Was quite a show. 🙂

[@Tucko1]

@@akamarcel3566 Hahaha, yep. I remember. I was near the ramp with my friend. So many great shows at Perkins.

Kids today just have no idea what these shows were like live.

[@suzyqualcast6269]

Mad Max 1, swhere she and all those following (her), nicked the ide, hair from, who in turn pinched it all from Londons first punks.

Kids today are mesmerized by phony lip syncing extravaganzas like the 1/2 time show at the Super Bowl.

I had front row center seats for the show the night before (June 18, 1981). I know the date, not because I have a good memory, but because I still have my ticket stub.

[@AngryNorth]

I love her outfit. Nice song too.

The Tubes were kick ass...saw the completion backwards tour. Mondo Bondage. 🎼🤟

[@deplorabledave1048]

November 1979 at the Palladium. I saw her blow up her very first car on stage. An old Caddy. I was stage left in the 7th row.

You, my friend, are MY HERO!!! As always, I THANK YOU :) I'm hoping one day to once again see the promo videos shown at the clubs, prior to the shows, before they made a name for themselves.

[@ЧеловекспланетыЗемля-б5щ]

Kiss точно отдыхают по моему по градусу эпатажа и оригинальности шоу!

[@hwb-zalpach]

по музыке.

[@DJSmoothie]

I could only imagine how she was treated back then off stage. It was punk music and then somehow she became metal with metal pop songs and I guess that was enough to drive her over the edge. RIP WOW.

[@andreasnewitsch59]

She definitely let it all hang out. The brighter they burn the faster they burn out.

[@Metalkitty33]

Wendy was the best .

That’s fucking beautiful

[@lfader]

Saw them twice at Perkins both shows were awesome BUT nothing compared to the soundcheck w/o Wendy in street clothes early afternoon !! Richie was so polite chatting me up telling me Abt that Flying V he bought from Manny's in NY ..... 🌟

[@ButThatsShacksTrain]

that must have been EPIC! Such a cool memory!

[@lfader]

@@ButThatsShacksTrain Thx it really was so unexpected getting there around noon Just walked in the front doors at Perkins Palace went down to the side of the stage where they were running through songs without Wendy . About 8- 10 ft from Richie just watching them jam 😳 It's still stuns me thinking how broad daylight in your face that was ...

[@JOSEMANUELSEIJASFERNANDE-md2rh]

Wendy: que necesaria eras ahora mismo en este estercolero llamado planeta Tierra, por suerte nos queda tu obra, tu actitud.

[@blackrainbowfiresword177]

What can one say but, WoW.

[@whelp4752]

Baby baby...baby baby 😘

[@Zirahmire]

The O. stands for original. Most of what came with shock rock of the 90s its fashion trends and going into the early 2000s It's a safe bet Wendy O. Williams did it first.

[@cristianspiga7243]

❤️

[@teresawarnke999]

Thank you Wes! I've been really down lately. It feels like home watching Wendy perform back in the day when, idk, things we're fucked up but more well hidden? Wendy has the same birth date as my grandma and my youngest child, my mother was born 9 days after Wendy and I was born on April 9th. I think in some other dimension that you and Wendy are my parents and we have the greatest life that we can't even imagine living cuz it's just so idyllic. We live in a Sativa jungle where healthy fruits n veggies are like blades of grass on a golf course and there are these funny little animals that roam searching for us because they need to be eaten to survive. Something like rabbits, they run up to us and fall into a delicious meal. All of our childhood pets have duplicates so they are always at our sides and our labor is to make sure the buds are trimmed so they don't hit the ground. But we trim the plants with words and the produce knows where it's needed so we just walk around and point, say clip and it smells so nice. Maybe I should change my major to creative writing? Too much fun, I'm a Future Environmental Educator. This society is screwed, so onto the new prospects and I'm gonna teach them right so we can save the Earth. Have a great weekend ❤️🪄

[@sjames304]

This is Wes' channel? I just very recently became a Plasmatics fan and am really kind of melancholy that I never saw them live even though I do remember them and their notoriety. They even played in my city in 1981..but I wasn't fan then...damn. I missed a real fine show, and I didn't know it. Been spending a lot of time the last while enjoying the band's music and the vids. What a ground-breaking unit. And "Summer Night" ... favorite Plasmatics tune! And fave Plasmatic? Wes Beech for sure. Solid player. Cool get up. Patrolled stage right just like a gangster. And...RIP Wendy :(

[@teresawarnke999]

I'm sorry, Rod, my memory is getting a bit fuzzy. Thank you so much for sharing all these videos. ✨😘

Plasmatics fans: now go check Australia's AMYL & THE SNIFFERS! If lead singer had a chain saw or a sledge hammer she could be the new Wendy! (And if the band added a sax they could be the next X-Ray Spex!)

[@lfader]

Yes she kicks ass That band is a good backing band and she goes off similar to Wendy She's a little firecracker 💥👍💥
