The Hooters - Karla with A K (Live)

[@karlaallen3811]

Karla with K saying Hi

[@thefurbeastunderyourbed5012]

This song, in *my* opinion, is one of the most underrated and greatest pieces of music ever created, one of my absolute all-time favourites and was used as a cover anthem at my High School graduation ceremony when we were being handed our diplomas in 2008. I'm happy The Hooters came to visit my hometown a couple of times now over the last few years. Kudos from Erfurt, Germany!

[@darrenb8974]

Man, I love The Hooters. I was a bit young when they played Newcastle upon Tyne City Hall in the late 1980s or early 90's. I missed it, but I remember being in a record shop called "Old Hits" a few days later and overhead the staff waxing lyrical about the gig. Or as they described it "The Hooters bash". To make things worse, there is a place within driving distance called Keswick, with a theatre - so it kills me a bit every time I see the band are playing Keswick Theatre! And it isn't the one I want! Never mind. All hail The Hooters. A beautiful band.

[@joeblow7407]

Philadelphia music in the 1980"s......Glad I was there. Fabulous!......Robert Hazard. Hooters, Tommy Conwell, John Eddie, the A's, Smash Palace plus the hard stuff....Cinderella, Britny Fox and Roughhouse. I can't remember them all! WMMR radio......

[@willkomnath2560]

We just went to their annual show in Quakertown PA at the end of August 2024. Still a great band!

[@heinbest]

A fantastic band. It's just fun to see them live. These are still real musicians who know their craft and master their instruments. You can tell that they enjoy music. I hope that this fantastic band comes to Germany many more times.

[@RonaldAxtmann]

Great song, July 13th, 2024 - today they are playing here in Plauen / Vogtland

[@Stinkbug74]

Funny how this song is still my favorite song done live. Ever since they just about brought the whole Inglewood, CA Forum down with this song. lol. It was the greatest thing I've ever seen. Most people were there to see Brian Adams & some hadn't even heard of The Hooters, but as soon they started this song every single person in that whole Forum were stomping their feet to this song. You could actually see the bleachers that we were standing up on moving swaying up & down. The family & friends that I'd brought with me to see the Hooters & myself were all staring at each other with our mouths wide open in shock. It really was the greatest moment for me out of all the concerts I've been to. I know they picked up quite a few new fans that night.

I saw the Hooters twice. Free shows in NY at the South Street Seaport to start and END the Zig Zag tour, one year apart, Unforgettable live band, now forgotten. What a band!

[@janineduncan2190]

Had the same experience at the Seattle Coliseum when they opened for Bryan Adams...amazing. Had a chance to see them three times before Andy left and they were unbelievable every time. They still perform and record, but this lineup will always be The Hooters to me.

[@juliocesarpereira4325]

I worked for an FM station in my home town in the late 80s. The programmer came to me and asked me if he should include this song and I told him: definitely!!!

I met these guys when they were touring as baby grand, WAAAy back when, at a place called Ward's Donuts, in Huntington, West Virginia! My cousin and I got into a 3am food fight with them, throwing donut holes!! LOL. years later, I wrote a letter to Rob asking him if he remembered it..and he laughed and said "Wow. Wards Donuts..now that's going back aways!" I still have the postcard he sent in 1985. It will remain a cherished posession! Eric Bazilian is still making amazing music, too!

Just a very good tune from a great band!! These guys might have been under the radar exsp in north America but these guys were great MUSICIANS!! So nice 2 have music like this exsp with all the crap thats out there now!!

[@TaconyBill]

Cyndi Lauper did the Hooters Time after Time as well as Robert Hazard's ( Go rest his musical soul!) Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. Osbourne did One of Us. Philly music is out there if you know where to find it. I use to find it every weekend in the 80"s and 90's but that was then. Hooters, Hazard, Bricklin, John Eddie, Southside Johnny, Tommy Conwell. I feel so lucky to be from Philly in the era I experienced. Stories my kids love to hear about-dates with my then girlfriend now wife of 20 yrs.

[@AlexRodriguez-qg3rz]

Cyndi Lauper wrote time after time. It's not a Hooters song.

[@deeblack9393]

Did you ever hear of a group called The Daves? The lead singer was a girl named Bekka and she played trombone.

[@Ken18710]

1st Thanksgiving w/my future wife(32 yrs and 3 kids later) @ the Spectrum in '87. For those who were there do you recall they played this song twice? During the concert and again for the last song. The band said the were filming a video. Always a nice memory.

I was 2nd row center and have been trying to see myself too. Do you remember when they started the concert and then MTV went to a commercial they were supposed to stop playing waiting for the commercial to be done. They did that 1 time then they just kept playing after that. My younger brother was a drummer and at the end he caught both drumsticks that Dave Uosikkinen threw out in the audience. Remember after the live MTV concert feed was done they re-did the song again to make sure they had it.

I was at this concert that was live on MTV Thanksgiving 1987. I am 2nd row center. I can see myself but it's really hard to see. My brother caught the drumsticks from the drummer when he threw them out to the audience. It was weird MTV wanted the band to stop playing during commercials but the band said screw it and kept playing. It was a 2 hour live MTV event.

I knew they were good, but that was an amazing live performance. 9 times out of 10 these 80s "live" performances are faked, and at least some people can tell. This is so darned good it almost sounds faked, but isn't. That's simply an amazing performance. Wow. Been a musician for over 30 years, and that performance just blew me away. Props to the recording team as well. Great mix.

[@susbider]

One of my Hooters faves. While they may not be around much any more, save the occasional reunion concert, The Hooters (and members of it) had a rather large influence on the music scene since the late 80s and early 90s. If you've heard Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" (co-written by Rob Hyman) or Joan Osborne's performance of "One of Us" (written by Eric Bazilian), you've experienced some of that influence.

[@robertirwin8892]

It's really hard to find ( and even more so to hear) , BUT did you know that the Hooters did a version of time after time? I might have heard the Hooters version 3 or 4 times.

[@taniakrause9253]

Hard to find? They are currently touring in Germany, like almost every year . Cause we Love these guys over here.❤

[@taniakrause9253]

​@@robertirwin8892 Rob Hyman wrote the Song Time after time, so it belongs to them.

[@Cafeeine]

@hanksteelbranch I agree with that. I think the hiatus might have had something to do with it. I had never heard of the band until (as a teen) bought a cd because I found the band name hilarious, only to find musical greats inside. On the other hand I personally know musicians who never even made it to the limelight, and they should have. The Hooters already have a good spot in music history, which in the long run, I think is nothing to sneeze at.

If you want to hear some awesome vintage Andy King, try and find a copy of his 1992 debut album, Spritual Pre-school, released on Big Ray Records. It has 11 amazing songs with Andy's beautiful vocals. All songs were written by Andy. I found a used copy online. It was worth the search! He should do some of the songs the next time he plays a gig.
