Wow! I was there in all my 13 year old glory. I never thought I would see something like this up on Youtube. You are so cool to take all that time and remaster these precious films. The sound is exceptional! It is so cool to see the concert up close. I was so far back they were all specs. Thank you so much for all the work and sharing!

Ricky Wilson was an unsung fret master. It's a crime that this is not widely acknowledged.
-
Ricky Wilson absolutely killing it on guitar. One stone cold genius of guitar.
-
Man, I've had a crush on this woman for 40 years now.
-
Rickie on the lead guitar was sensational
-
Watching Fred play that glockenspiel with the stoic intensity of a man disarming a bomb.
-
16 years old, about 20-30 rows back in the middle, hot, dusty, and high as a kite on the L S D- such good times. What an incredible day. The B-52's, The Talking Heads, and Oingo Boingo sort of stole the show that day.
-
i dont see a comment pointing out the story of the song, so here goes. ricky wilson (guitar) wrote this song, for his sister (cindy wilson, vocalist) to sing. it was based on a fight they had in childhood. he took one of her toy dolls and went off with it, to tease her. she chased him around the house saying "give me back my man. i'll give you everything i have etc".
-
Man that guitar is awesome.
-
B52s.....my all-time fave American band. Everyone should have a little room in their hearts for the B52s ❤❤❤
-
Ricky Wilson was a true one off. He played with only 4 strings on guitar and used many different tunings. A true original. Glorious performance here from the band.

As products of late 70's and early to mid 80's music, very few of my friends liked the new music wave. We were all enthralled with Blue Oyster Cult, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, the Scorpions and Lynyrd Skynyrd. While I still love those those bands and hard rock in general, I took a shine to the Talking Heads, Blondie and Devo a little harder than the guys I hung with. I still think the B-52's are a severely underrated New Wave band and I still listen to them regularly. Favorite songs? Private Idaho, 52 Girls

When this track came out I thought there was something special about it. I was right and I’m still listening to it over 40 years later. Great performance. Brilliant band.
-
This was the best concert line up i've ever seen in my life! The Ramones, Oingo Boingo, B-52's, Talking Heads and the Police all in one day! I even ran into Ray Bradbury, Steve Wozniak and Steve Bartek when i wandered through the almost-empty tents, and was able to chat with all of them. What a day that was!
-
iwt. B52s may be the best pop band that ever was. Hot, fresh, sexy, weird, and their tunes still hold up today. Perfect!
-
Looks and sounds great, what a huge labor of love to produce this! Thank you for remastering the entire concert and for sharing it with us.
-
Her voice is so amazing !! No effects on her microphone! Raw untreated vocals. American woman!!!!!!!
-
It’s a shame. This level of uniqueness will never happen again. Maybe in a pub in a small town somewhere?
-
Freakin Ricky Wilson is a GREAT guitar player! Left us way too soon... Really nice video and sounds good too. Thank You!
-
The world even smelled different back then. Spent my 20s in the 80s,I was blessed!!!
