Dr. Righteous Video

by **styxfanNH** » Sun Dec 25, 2005 3:00 pm

VH1 Classic played the Dr. Righteous/Heavy Metal Poisoning video at 11:55. Another Christmas present dropped right in front of me. Preceding it was Girl with Guns and a song from Triumph.

I can't remember the last time I saw the Dr. Righteous video.

Actually, it's probably hard to tell........all of the "acting" comes off a little stiff in those video's, doesn't it ??????

Note: Desert Moon was also played in that hour.

They're definitely musician's not actors.

by **bugsymalone** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 6:05 am

Extra note: They played Tommy Shaw's Girl's With Guns twice yesterday on VH1Classic. They also played Damn Yankees "Don't Tread on Me." The DY video is quite rare.

I can't remember which song. I was so surprised to see Dr. Righteous, I just remembered that they were sandwiched between Tommy and Styx as I walked into the room.

Oh I love "Magic Power" by Triumph!! This was one of my favorite songs during that time too!!! Ohhhhhhhh, I hope Rik plays it in Atlantic City!!! I'm sure he will!! The icing on the Rik set is if he plays "Say Goodbye"!!!

OMG, that song is 24 years old!! Sheesh!!! :shock:

Froy, did he play that song in Chicago/HOB???

From what I'm understanding, Rik "might" be playing the same type of "Lost Treasures" show too, maybe!!

I have a hunch, there will be more Rik and Dennis dates being posted in a few weeks, unbelievable, I still can't believe it

No I have never heard Say Goodbye live

Ohhhhh, hopefully this will be a first than!! I love that song!!!

When I saw Triumph in the 80's I thought they played that song. I'll have to go through my old Triumph box of stuff and see if I have an old set list.

by **DarrenUK** » Wed Dec 28, 2005 12:57 am

My fave Triumph songs are...

MAGIC POWER
NEVER SURRENDER
HOLD ON
FOLLOW YOUR HEART
LAY IT ON THE LINE

Well, Darren, at least we agree on THESE songs! I love every one of them as well.

I agree with all these songs too!! I LOVE Triumph too!!!

Bugsy, I think Darren didn't get all his Christmas gifts that he asked for and he's just a little upset

:wink:

by **jimmy19029** » Wed Dec 28, 2005 7:01 am

I was pulled over for speeding in November 1984 on my way to college when I first heard Girls With Guns on the radio. Then I read an interview with Tommy who said HE was pulled over for speeding TOO while listening to it on a tape around the time he'd first recorded it. What was even weirder was it was several miles down the road from where I used to live in Michigan.
Triumph's awesome! Saw them in 1986 before Rik left. Saw Rik solo 3 years ago in a small club. GREAT SHOW!

by **jimmy19029** » Thu Dec 29, 2005 7:06 am

I saw them on the Sport of Kings Tour in 1986 and was disappointed that they didn't do Hold On. Later, I read that Emmett didn't really like that one and had only been pressured by the record company to include it on the live album, Stages. When I saw him solo in 2002 he did sing it. Guess he change his mind...

I love Triumph. I saw them at the World Series of Rock (along with Quarterflash, .38 Special, Loverboy and Foreigner) and I saw them another time. I have to find the ticket stub from when.

by **SuiteMadameBlue** » Thu Dec 29, 2005 3:03 pm

Jimmy, that's for posting the set lists for Triumph!!!!! I really appreciate it!!

Froy, how much you want to bet that Rik will play "Say Goodbye" in Atlantic City????

by **jimmy19029** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 7:47 am

May 28, 1982

The Return of the World Series of Rock with Foreigner, .38 Special, Loverboy,Triumph and Quarterflash.

Suite, here's a link for the whole article:

Our show in Philly was 3 weeks later and had Foreigner, The Kinks, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Loverboy plus Huey Lewis & the News.

Thank you Jimmy, that was very nice of you to find that and post that for me!!! I really appreciate it!!

I'll never forget that day, we all skipped out of school. I left my camera in the car in fear that it was going to be taken away. That is the last day that I ever left my camera behind!! My friends and I made it to the front row of the concert at the stadium, I wish I had my camera -UGH I had a great time, too much of great time!! There was a picture of me in the Milwaukee Journal the day after, I was in a crowd shot - LOL I couldn't find my ticket stub, but I did find this, I shrunk it, it's a Triumph Patch and a Poloroid picture of Quarterflash that they took on stage and threw out to the crowd - LOL That was before Larry was doing that - LOL

by **jimmy19029** » Fri Dec 30, 2005 9:23 am

No problem. I love finding things like this. Did you attend the 1981 one too with REO, Blackfoot and April Wine?
I remember Rindy Ross doing the Polaroid pics too during Take A Picture, the title track of their second album, when they played here in Philly opening for Elton John that same year in July.
Skipped school, huh? My co-worker used to do that for shows too. He and his friends would make a day of it and go into town to restaurants before the show feeling all grown up smoking their cigarettes.
Our concert was at JFK Stadium(now long gone) on Saturday June 19th, 1982. I was in college by that time. My sister, Maureen, was in high school. It was her very first concert and she was going with her boyfriend. She was PSYCHED! She was in a different section than I was.
I showed up as Huey & the News were singing Hope You Love Me Like You Say I Do. My two friends, Greg & Phyllis, didn't show up for hours----right before Loverboy took the stage. Kinks were disappointing as they stuck mostly to their harder rockin' stuff eschewing the great variety of material they've recorded over the years. Their 90s(more varied) shows were MUCH BETTER. Foreigner had sound troubles and weren't terrible. But it was the worst show I've ever seen them play.

No I didn't. I was a Sophomore in HS and I know that I wasn't allowed to go to concerts in 81' or I was pretty much grounded. The next year I pretty much snuck to concerts (like I do today-LOL)

Skipped school, huh? My co-worker used to do that for shows too. He and his friends would make a day of it and go into town to restaurants before the show feeling all grown up smoking their cigarettes.

Yes, I only did that a few times. During the Brewers World Series and a few exams. I was lucky enough to talk my way through taking the exams over. Smoking-ACK, can't stand it!! I remember my friends smoking and feeling cool too - LOL

I would've loved to see Huey Lewis during that time. Have you seen them lately? If you have, how are their shows compared to back then?

Too bad about the Kinks and Foreigner. I'd like to see the new line-up of Foreigner, hopefully in 2006.

I saw the Kinks waaaay back in 1980, I want to say. It was just a kick-ass show. So much fun and high energy. My sister went with me and she was pregnant at the time. Her son has always LOVED rock music and I swear it was that infusion of the Kinks while he was still riding around in Mommy!
