The Dangerous Brothers

Early stage show of Ade Edmondson and Rik Mayall.
Live Standup routine on "Boom Boom Out Go The Lights"
Originally aired May 5th 1981
I believe this was their first ever TV appearance.

One of my faves - I've always wondered what falls out of Ade's jacket at the end though, is it his microphone?
