Does anyone know where I can find video of Bad English in concert? Looking for a full concert, not clips.

Thanks --
ST

Babys....I think one or two
Waite solo....maybe Missing You
Journey.....no

If memory serves, they also did a few covers like Jumpin' Jack Flash.

No idea where to find a whole concert, but I saw them live a few times and they did perform songs from Baby's/Journey/Waite. Seeing them in a club of less than 1,000 seats was the best way to see them live.

I'm sure I saw some kind of recorded concert of them online somewhere, but I think it was a grouping of 5 songs maybe. The full concert aside, does anyone know what I'm referring to here? If so, can you point me in the right direction? Feeling nostalgic today, lol...

I know there was a VHS of all their videos, which kind of looked live. Haven't seen anything other than that.

They didn't do Straight to Your Heart? Weird. That's by far my favorite by them.

They probably did change the setlist some after the startup of the early 1990
concerts. The setlist I put up was for the last few months of 1989.

Straight to Your Heart was on the second record for which they did not play live.

Yep, a little hall called the 'Omni-New Daisy' on Beale St in Memphis, summer of '89. Soundcheck was partially open...meaning the doors were closed, but you could find a way in. And the band hung out with ROCK103 before the show, and at Alfreds (I think.) after the show.


later~

Saw them here in Seattle at the Paramount back in 89. It was great, except some of the feedback from the amps and waite getting pissed off because of it. They have a bar there and I got pretty lit up. GREAT TIMES!

Correct...they broke up before the album was even released.

I don't recall them performing an entire Journey song. It seems I remember reading on the boards back then that Neal performed the intro to "Wheel in the Sky", but not the full song.

They opened for Whitesnake in '89. Doubt anyone was shooting the shows for anything.

Here's a clip of Bad English on Arsenio Hall. The intro was cool, but it's cut off. Arsenio said something like "the following band contains members from the Baby's, Journey and Santana....yeah this band comes from some good stock." Don't know why I remember that, but I do.

Neal played the intro to WITS when he toured with Paul Rogers in '93. Deen played drums on that tour as well.
