What a great pairing...the Glitter Band were fantastic when they were making this kind of music...the heavy, primal drums and potent riffs, and the combination of sax and guitar...a very unique sound. You can hear it in the Ants music. You won't find any frontmen like Adam anywhere, anymore. Not with his peculiar genius....the band really nails this song. Excellent.
You were obviously not around in the 70's and therefore don't know that the Glitter Band had their own career and a large number of top 10/20 singles without Gary. If you look at the video behind the band you can probably make out footage from a number of tv shows, concerts and gigs from the 70's right through to recent times.
@Glitterbandits This is the best I've seen him of all the recent performances, he needs a really tight band like you guys and you guys need a lead! Love that you brought up Angie Bowie as well, she's looks amazing still! Brilliant work again, massive fams of both you guys and Adam! xox Brooke
I love this video !! For many years i hoped he would come back. After seeing him in Bloomsburry in 2007 even more, there i had seen him grow towards a comeback. I hope he stays well and will give us some new good music. Please Adam, let me be proud on my BIG Antwarrior tatoo on my arm ;-) All the best to you !!
I saw Adam and the Ants in 1978 Retford Porterhouse they came on to a Glitter Band track, this clip made it all complete, same aggressive chords....love it...
@thefokkerbrothers Well,considering he hasn't sung for many many years and has had his other battles, it's great that he's up there at all. Give him time. I'd call myself a singer and at nearly 50 I can hear and feel a loss in range and tone. We wanna hear the songs as well as see him. Who else is gonna sing them?
The Glitter Band truly legends in their own right...so good seeing them getting the respect they deserve...was quite touching seeing adam pointing to gerry in the screen behind him..Adam sang with much love and admiration for the band..so great to have you back Adam..We Missed You! Now the the one last thing to make this a perfect world would be for the BBC to bring back Top Of The Pops for good!
a little sad really, as a fan I can see that Adam ain't very well here at all, but he enjoyed himself with The Glitter Band, 'its the glitter band, lets have some glitter time yeah' ....... ha haaa Adam mate that was classic !!
@shep28 Horrible comment to make. Depression are serious condition which often ends up with people ending their own lives. But we in the disabled community both mental health of physical disabilities see this sort of nasty, spiteful comment directed at us on an almost daily basis. What can we expect when the press and even government use such language.
Well, you're entitled to your opninion. I'd choose Glitter Band every time of course if I had to (have too much history with them) but Adam's great too in a different but similar way if you know what I mean. Distorted guitar sound, heavy drums, flambouyant .....
Yeah, don't think saxophone is necessary at all, in fact I think Eddy should use some more contemporary keyboard sounds, it sounded like one of the voices he was using was trying to emulate the sax. Not necessary at all. Sound guys, please raise the level of Dominic's slide guitar and Pete's kit over Ant's kit.
What's wrong with Adam Ant?.. he seemed like he didn't know his own song let alone where he was or he just didn't want to be on stage. I know he Idolize Gary Glitter. But that doesn't matter.
The irony is that he's singing about us! lol It was a great gig and well busked by all concerned lol

Brilliant performance!

Great fun. Sound judgement. What a mix
Faves meet! Excellent!

This is the band Adam should be touring with these days. It's such a full sound and makes Adam sound just great!!

So cute when he points to the video behind him :-)
FUCK*NG LOVE!
GLITTER BAND + ADAM ANT, BRILLIANT IDEA AND BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE!
I can't believe there isn't one professional quality video of Adam's come back. It's all amateur so hard to hear things.
@Glitterbandits DO IT UP, seriously!
the greatest band ever .........sing loud!!!

GLITTER BAND + ADAM: MAKE A NEW RECORD TOGETHER! WE'LL PROMOTE THE SH*T OUT OF IT!

what do u think now
Pub band comes to mind!
An abundance of the comments concernin' the brilliance of that union simply dun leave any fuckin' room 2 add smthg else! :DD
Adam made gate crashing other artists a habit. He done the same with Gary Numan and fcuked Cars ringtone up.
@POPINCORPORATED Especially as there was virtually no rehearsal.
@TWENTIETHCENTURYBABY 100% yes!
Where’s Gazza?
Is that man really Adam Ant - a dandy highwayman ?????
@schoey100
YES!!! True!

👍👍🇩🇪
@scola91660 Good to hear. However, I am not Dominic.
WTF !! Did he take a line off the bog seat before he came on stage or what ??
What's wrong with Adam Ant?.. he seemed like he didn't know his own song let alone where he was or he just didn't want to be on stage. I know he Idolize Gary Glitter. But that doesn't matter.
poor adam he looks so unwell here :(
@MegaYoker
aye,good to see. shame he cant sing
GLITTER BAND FEEL FOR THEM HATE GARY THE NONCE THO
glitterband without garry ? whats that....?
Look Adam really ain't well here, so please try to be a little sympathetic x
i love adam ant but this is bad,sorry adam.
This should be removed. Sad to see Adam right in the midst of his manic psychosis.
