[@lisablack8391]

😊sooo glad I grew up in the 70's! Best times!❤

[@Dopi-1956]

Absolutely

[@championshipjackets4496]

I was 16 or 17 years old and from Akron...Tubes were up in Cleveland Ohio. I sort of knew how to take 77 up into Cleveland. Took my buddy and we got up there and found the concert hall. Drank our butts off on the way and when we got there in the car and went in and bought some acid from the most f up dude we could find and I remember hot chicks dancing along with Fe and one heck of a show. The best T-shirt...big splash THE TUBES that was squirting out of the bottom. First major concert in Cleveland. 2nd was DIO at couple months later and both were friggin mind blowing.

[@mmitzner1]

It's amazing to watch the progression of this song through the years. Never boring; never disappointed!

[@roknroy178]

Never tire of hearing white punks on dope, love this performance, hope it doesn't get taken down again.

[@marissadower-morgan3313]

I will never recover from this concert ..thank the lord

[@kimberlyfrederick9592]

Dang straight from a Cali Girl.

[@nsbd90now]

That is live 'n raw rock 'n roll! Yeah!

[@jk-mm5to]

Serious greatness.

[@kelvinbritz9051]

"What do you want from live" their best album ever..wish i was there!!!the stage show must have been amazing!

[@HHG_BREEDINGGROUND1]

Their LIVE album is one of the best albums I've ever heard. Wish I had seen their show.

[@daveydudely9954]

perfect. such early footage and totally coherent lyrics

[@Mrariesdave]

I saw this show in Harvard Square in Cambridge MA, around this same time. What a fucking great show, needless to say I miss the hell outta those days.

[@mikerieck306]

I should've....I was old enough back then. Blown opportunity but I saw some other good shows ;). And I miss those days days too!

[@gfgoalie28]

love the subtlety of this version 🔥 may be one of my favorites!

[@Starsk25]

Oh, this is great!

[@thomascalvello7783]

I might have been there, saw em a few times at Winterland. WPOD

[@HermanSays]

Pure Genius.

[@Roger-mz4lx]

I saw them when that LP first came out at Vets Memorial Columbus ,Ohio. A buddy of mine called the radio station and got free tickets. No one was there, no one knew who they were. SAHB, Sensational Alex Harvey Band opened for them. Couldn't have been no more than a couple hundred people or so.

[@toddhuber8989]

I was there too!!!!! One of the greatest shows ever...between Alex scrawling Vambo and Quay Lude throwing pills (candy) into the crowd... Being from Cleveland I was well aware of both of them

[@Tschoerdy.Yegane]

The guitar in the end is unique in this performance! WOW!

[@markshinn5196]

I was there it was different to say the least,they put on quite the show.

[@mauricepeck7147]

G-D I was 15 and I still am a " WHITE PUNK ON DOPE!".

[@funstruck1]

I was 22 💨 😶 & I'm goin' back on the clinic in 2 wake-ups

[@bobinbud]

Fenomenal

[@avdavey]

Feenominal

[@tuncakstar]

Wild!

[@mikerieck306]

The 714 guitar. Perfect

[@lawrencearansaspasstx4374]

I bought the first Tubes album in '75-76. "White Punks on Door" was well received in my group of friends. But I'll be damned if I can remember why we liked THAT song so much. And I'll be a monkey"s uncle if I can remember who those friends were.Shit, I can't really remember much about the '70s, or the '80s, or the '90s, dammit what year is this? What is dope? Who the hell is Fay Waybill? Why am I typing words on this thing? What IS this freaking thing called..........

[@MrAxholio]

Quay Lewd! Hellllll yeah!

[@marctaurus8348]

Love this simpler stripped back version, great bassline!

[@metalmanchild1454]

WITH PLATFORMS!! 6"9!!

[@victorsantiago5470]

awesome set. . had to hurt.

[@nathanscott5978]

This is not a lady it is a male lead singer Fee Waybill who is performing. Man I wish I could have seen this show.

[@DavidMorash]

He could still be a lady.. he seems quite well mannered.

[@emotionalinvalid]

@@@DavidMorashIf Quay Lewd(Fee Waybill) is a lady the i am a the monkey from space who impregnated Liz Taylor .

[@fkorekore265]

I only knew the version Nina Hagen Band did, actually I have just discovered it was not a song of hers and was a cover of this! Amazing. Both are great, she screams great like a bitch she is.

[@avdavey]

Is that re styles as the nurse?

[@JR-xj2vr]

Epic…..

[@LeathurRokk]

Does anybody know if this was a wig or if it was Fee Waybill's real hair here?

[@georgematulich4163]

WPOD - Look at me.....saw this show in 75.

Quay Lewd!

[@stephenhensley5631]

FEE RULES !

[@georgematulich4163]

Taking Quaaludes of the market was a bad idea. Our country would be a better place now if that didn't happen.

[@jk-mm5to]

The miltowns, seconals and Dilaudids were much better.

Teenage had a race for the night time Spent my cash on every high I could find Wasted time in every school in L.A. Getting loose, I didn't care what the kids say We're white punks on dope Mom & dad moved to Hollywood Hang myself when I get enough rope Can't clean up, though I know I should White punks on dope White punks on dope Other dudes are living in the ghetto But born in pacific heights don't seem much betto We're white punks on dope Mom & dad live in Hollywood Hang myself when I get enough rope I can't clean up, though I know I should White punks on dope White punks on dope I go crazy 'cause my folks are so fucking rich Have to score when I get that rich white punk itch Sounds real classy, living in a chateau So lonely, all the other kids will never know We're white punks on dope Mom & dad live in Hollywood Hang myself when I get enough rope Can't clean up, though I know I should White punks on dope White punks on dope

[@frostedhead]

This might be better than 'Earache My Eye'

[@gcf7175]

Was that lady OK?

[@tomburns70]

I'm not sure yet ; maybe I found a way to hear MY MUSIC again. Many years of groups around the world are now being heard by thieves who probably didn't know what they had. To me music is indescribable, personal, and I guess everyone gets ripped eventually? People are getting a little desperate, though.

[@KarlKloie]

Vintage

[@currybro]

did the bassist piss off the camera man? guy is cranking like a freight train and barely gets a shot on camera?

[@senorfunball]

Cameramen hate bassplayers

[@baileyruel1985]

Um, sir…Fee is too much of a special to not have the attention, Roger is pleasing to look at (or I thought so when I was 13), Prairie is by far the most talented drummer the world has seen, and Rick was a shy person…sooooo there you have it, that’s why no bass player in frame

This was a punk ass song before the word was used
