I gotta be honest. My girlfriend at the time came home with tickets to see them in 82,83? I was like oh great, I gotta go see these guys?! Uggghhh. I was a huge Zeppelin, Sabbath fan etc. So we went. I was blown away at how good these guys were live. Fantastic. I’ve been to over a hundred concerts, and most bands suck live. These guys were tight, singing was amazing. They gained a new fan that night
So much message on top of their music- no fluff and posturing...
The only reason they didn't get as HUGE as they should have was the way Mike Reno looked like a frat boy instead of a GREAT SINGER......and band
I totally get it.
Man when he rips out that "gonna pack my bags and FLYYYYYY MY WAY"......chills up and down the spine.....a real face melter!!!
It's not "my way" it's baby
@@rentedtux1883 you’re wrong. It’s “my way,” hence the reason he says “or no way at all” afterwards.
I've always loved "Take Me to the Top" as well because of those high notes that Reno hits! And he sounds just as good in concert!
@@rentedtux1883its FLLLLLY,,,, myyyy waaaay! 😊
In fact. on the original recording he did not scream originally. Then one day, he wanted to re-record the vocals and Bruce Fairbairn and Paul Dean got annoyed and got the multitracks out which had already been mixed and transferred the instrumental with backing vocals to a new tape and Mike re-recorded the vocals with new lyrics and the scream which floored everyone. The take you hear is the re-recorded vocals. Mike revealed this to Rock History Month interviewer John Bodin.
Jeebus - Mike Reno was an amazing vocalist. He deserves way more recognition. His voice was so powerful. It still is...
He still sounds good imo
These guys were HUGE! They were all over the radio!!!!
Canadas answer to Foreigner.
Both bands have great lead singers!
Thanks for posting!
🎸👏🏻😎
I saw them with Foreigner in 82 (?) - they left foreigner in the dust.
@@jimmypaxson3980
Ok, I get you! But they were both great bands! I like them both.
@@dynjarren8355 Foreigner was great then, yes… Great now too… But as for raw power, Loverboy took that stage and dusted the entire rest of that day. It was f’n epic and I’d never heard of them.
@@jimmypaxson3980 I’ll take your word for it, man! You saw it live and remembered it all so they must have left quite an impression on you.
I watched some early Loverboy shows and they did kick ass. I wouldn’t want to follow them after their set. You better have some good rockers or you’ll look lame by comparison. That’s what good bands are supposed to do when they are young and hungry. Blow the Headliners off the Stage! This was back when there were a lot of good Rock bands around.
Now that’s over and in the past.
No voice correction needed; good sound quality of whole band.
Holyyyyyyyyyyy MIKE RENO. Firing in all cylinders. Awesome!!!! That fricking guitar, sound like it is possess. Paul Dean and all the chaps were and STILL kick ass.
My first concert without adults. I was 15 and I had an absolute blast with my best friend. ❤️
I was 16 and saw them in Charleston WV. We’re Lu Lu to have grown up with such awesome music being made
@mrspaulb3889 This is where I saw them also, twice!! Best show ever, they had that entire civic center on their feet, fists pumping air! I still get excited thinking about it (as you can tell). I have to say that to me the best part of the show was when “Take Me To The Top” started with the lasers around the keyboard player. The coolest thing at a concert I’d ever seen, hands down one of the best concerts I've ever seen, and I have seen a few for sure

I posted this once but forgot to tag you specifically so I'm trying it again. 🤣😂🤣
i was 15 as well 83 concert - first
Me, too!
Reno was on top of his game here.
This was Loverboy at their peak (1982).
And Mike's Fat Ass still has those angelic pipes.
Pretty much!
YES!!! God it brings me right back.. 😎😎😎❤️❤️❤️
1st couple of albums were sick!
Band was a force- extremely high vocal and music registrations...
Paul Dean….. best rock guitar tone ever. To hear it live was mind blowing.
Hey your the only one I’ve ever heard other than myself talk about Paul tone on that Hondo he played back then ! It was badass
I saw them live in 1983. Huey Lewis opened for them. What an awesome concert with laser show. Disappointed we don't see that here. Loverboy was one of those bands that were just as good or better live.
I can't believe how great Loverboy still sounds after 40 years!!! It's like a time machine. ❤️😎❤️😎❤️😎
I’ve grown up listening to these guys and saw them all over MTV back in the day. I never got to see them live and I kinda wish I did. These guys can rock with the best of them. I’d say their drummer is such a force in the band
That's too bad you didn't get to see them live. I saw them 2 nights in a row, opening for Journey on their Escape Tour. 2nd row center. Best show ever.
The drummer is a force in every band.
That’s raw and still incredible… no echo and still great
He has a great voice! What a great band!
I feel sorry for the youngens these days. They’ve always had something electronic from the second they’re awake until bedtime. In the 80’s, it was all imagination. Great times!!!! I miss it a lot.
I saw them twice in the 80’s… They slayed it. Scott Smiths death was heavy.
This is just flawless !!! 🔥🔥
Nice to see Scott Smith (RIP) ripping on that bad ass bass line!✌️
ONE OF THE BEST LIVE ACTS OF THE 80S 👍🏿👍🏿💣💣
Dam he could sing🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💪
Back then , to have a band or make a record , you had to have “chops”. If you couldn’t sing or play you would be told to come back when you get better. … Now it’s more about image and auto tune
Seen them in concert at the Oregon Jam in the early 80's. Best years ever. The Oregon Jam in the 80's was the best and there was nothing else like it.
Yes! Saw them at the Summer Strut ‘82 with Foreigner, Iron Maiden and Scorpions. Did the line up change in the PNW?
I saw them live in 1983... I was completely flabbergasted how incredible they sounded live. Other bands that were insane live were Ratt, Cinderella, Jeffrey Tate, Scorpions, Joan Jett, Ozzy, Eagles, Heart, Rush, Judist Priest etc
Joan Jett and Loverboy together at Notre Dame October 1983 👍👍
I grew up listening to them "Working for the Weekend " was our party anthem 😎
I saw this listed as recorded in Westfalenhallen Dortmund 30-01-1983. Who knew Germany liked this band so early on ?
I saw this on TV then. That's the broadcast date, actual show was December 18, 1982.
Soo, Ontario, 82 or 83 Little Joe’s Records and Tapes sold thousands of tickets. Store was adorned with LOVERBOY merchandise. Records headlined at front of store. Looked fantastic. The other record stores were envious. We got backstage tickets for me and my staff. Waited 30 minutes before being told the band went back to their hotel to watch the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL playofffs. Loverboy was from Vancouver, BC. We were furious to say the least. Loverboy was never featured in our store again. Fast forward 40 years! My son in law from BC is a music performer and producer, John Ellis. I told him the story. He knows the boys!!! He told them my story! We got our apology from LOVERBOY! Listening to them now as I write this.
Mike Reno .....!!!!!! One of the Best Lead Singers in Rock....
Super.....Sounds so good live
Man..the nostalgia! First band I really got into back in the day. My gosh...still listen to them today! Very good band. (I am now 56!)
Man did I party my ass off in the eighties.
Yes same!
Yes we did! And unlike the young guys today, we put some effort into our look before we went out!
Me and you both!
One of the best bands of the 80s!!
Loverboy never had a song I didn't like.
Thank you for the video! I have heard them only on the radio.
Saw them two nights in a row, second row center, when they open for Journey on their Escape tour. Best pairing of two bands live that I've ever seen. Mike Reno's vocals were astounding!
I didn't get to see them till 2009 even though I'd been a fan since 82/83. It was worth the wait and I've seen them 3 times since. Hubby's seen them 4 times as he got to see them at Expo in 86 and I've still got his tshirt which was autographed in 2014.
5:29 - Dude - that's some singing right there...
Man, what a voice.
Loverboy was my first concert, with Zebra opening. Is Loverboy in the Hall of Fame, if not they should be?
They are in The Canadian Hall of Fame
This guy can REALLY REALLY sing! Really have to watch real (not lip sync) live performances of any group to see just how good they are! Loverboy is great!
Just saw them last night and it was so much fun🫶
Just saw them in concert , Just got back from the concert saw them at the Kia forum Los Angeles..... Shocking how much they've changed over the years but a really great show....🎶
& Respectful to the audience.
Gotta love the disco feel of turn me loose
I never saw these guys live, but I'm thoroughly impressed. Usually there is a big difference between the studio version and a live version. Mike's vocals are perfect !
Look how yong and energetic they were so excited to play live i have such a hard time excepting everyone gets old including myself i wish i could stay young forever
This one my favorite rock band i love the 80's
I remember blowing out a vocal cord trying to sing FLLLLLLLY MY WAY and IT’S OVER back in the day.
Saw them with huey Lewis and the news in 82 at Johnstown War Memorial. Great show by both bands!
I did as well, but in a different venue in 1983. Loverboy was awesome but I felt Huey Lewis and the News stole the show. I did enjoy the laser show especially with Loverboy.
Mike Reno's Voice is so perfect and sexy... That even back then he sounded Natural "Auto Tune" Before There was "Auto Tune" For
Example Check out both Time Stamp Links when he says the word "Carress" on 8:57 and also when he says "Oh" here 13:29
Cheesy but tasty. High in Calories but I like it! He could really sing!
Good band! 👏🏻🎸😎
Yep - guilty pleasure.
GREAT 40 PLUS YEARS LATER
Great bass in the song TURN ME LOOSE. Sadly bassist Scott Smith (in the red and black shirt) drowned in 2000 (age 45) when he was washed off his small boat near San Francisco.
Uma das maiores bandas da história com um dos maiores vocalista cantor da história da Música🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏
💥 YES, that is true! -☀️
I saw them warming up for ZZ Top in 1980 they were actually a decent warm up band
I saw them in Biloxi Mississippi and had VIPS and BACKSTAGE !! OMG I MET THEM AND ME AND MY BFF FLEW IN PRIVATE PLANE WITH THEM BACK TO MY HOMETOWN NEW ORLEANS LOUISIANA AND LOL LEFT MY 1982 MUSTANG 😂😂..I WAS SO EXCITED THAT NIGHT AND HUNG OVER NEXT DAY DRIVING BACK TO MISSISSIPPI TO GET MY CAR😂😂😅😅❤❤❤❤❤ I think lol it was early 80's😅😅
Came to watch Weekend but all these are awesome.
i saw them when they came out with this album in 1982 at la forum
54 years old and still a fan! Love you guys! @loverboy
Amazing 🤩❤🎉
The Canadians leaving their mark at the top of rock n roll! RIP Scott Smith.
I saw them along with Joan Jett in the mid or late 90s at a music festival, and they both sounded great! I miss red and black shirts and black parachute pants with zippers!
sure brings back memories 😉
Always love me some LOVERBOY❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My first concert in Ames,Iowa in 1982
Dudes were Lovers!! They rock!!
amazing band when I worked in the clubs in the 80s I played all their songs Being in Montreal Canada had to celebrate this amazing band.
I saw them in concert in 82… now thats Rock n Roll ! ❤️
His vocal pitch was sooo' sooo' good.
Miss you Scott !
These guys were the ultimate in Canadian cheese. 😆
They were a great band and still Are thank you for the great music
2:17. So good live.
h the best roker from canada
Aye
buen tema cuando era chiquillo
R.I.P. Scott Smith 😢😭
Awesome band!
I love this one to.i mike reno they are my fraveit
Aww Scott 😔
Lastima nunca vinieron a mi país..me hubiera gustado verlos ya me imagino por los comentarios, lo exelente qué fue su conciertos
Saw them live at Barnhill Arena in Fayetteville Arkansas in 82 or 83. They were perfect live
Back when a band could make some money selling records and promoting them on the road.
Good memories
Real hard rock.
Gawd , I loved em and still do .
someone turn this dude loose already
Their (first?) single, “The kid is hot tonight”, never did really chart state side. It was a pretty big hit up in 🇨🇦.
It may not have charted high but it was an MTV staple and everyone heard that song in The States
2 CLASSICS 🎧🎸🔊🤘
Bon son piano 🎹 guitare 🎸
Je ne connaissais pas, merci !!!
I Gotta Do It My Way or No Way at All !!!!
My very 1st concert. 1982, Salt Palace. Salt Lake City, Utah.
love to know the city this was in.... huge fan of the band and would love to get a copy of this show
👌👌👌👌👌
Was never a huge fan. Always loved turn me loose though. It’s a song of strength.
always like that cow bell then that guitar riff
Heck of a live performance, he can really belt a tune. Not a big fan of their songs but who doesn't dig Weekend!
Lucky Ones and Strike Zone are bad ass
Not to take away anything from the late, great Eddie Van Halen but Paul Dean was the original rock n roll guitar hero. I believe many of the guitar greats, took inspiration from him.
Really? That's a bold claim. I've been playing for decades and while I know who he is I've never paid any attention to his playing....
4:43 This solo in Turn Me Loose is fine but there's nothing remarkable or original about it from both a melodic and technical standpoint. It's standard-issue.
Scott smith👊🏼
Not many folks know John C Reilly was in Loverboy.
I hate that I laughed at that, but I did.
I waited two months for confirmation that was funny. Validated!
@@bruce7135 Haha yes it was funny. I love him in Step Brothers!
Dale Doback shocked the world when he stepped out from behind the drum kit and picked up the 6-string, when Prestige Worldwide’s guitar player stormed off the stage after refusing to play 70’s Billy Joel music.
Killer
Fucking awsome!
2nd song is just Turn Me Loose in half-time. lol.
Y is slow motion on
