Cocteau Twins

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

i've been browsing this page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocteau_Twins_performances
and seen that 1982 video exists

* November 8, 1982: Brixton, England Brixton Ace ‡ ф

→ Broadcast on TV show "Whatever You Want", (UK Channel 4): Hazel / Alas Dies Laughing / Wax And Wane (supporting Killing Joke)
Live Broadcast probably on 08/11/82 edition, definitely repeated on "Whatever You Didn't Get" 14/03/83

does anyone have it?

i'm interested in 1982-4 audio bootlegs, too

Nope, but a record shop down my way had them labelled as the "Cocktail Twits" once. Do I win a prize? ;D
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

don't have it but remember seeing it and it's a real early performance, from the Garlands era, and not like their later more twittery stuff

As Keef once memorably put it, "Tineee sparrows flyiiiinnng!" :lol:





Ah, I jest, I've loved them long time.
Isn't it fab to have such a great band come from bloody Grangemouth of all places? Something to have a bit of national pride in 8)
