RKL (Rich Kids On LSD) live Mai 1989, Spielboden in Dornbirn/Austria. One of the best Bands ever!!! One of the best Shows ever!!! Digitalised from a VHS-Tape from 1989.
Seeing the 1000% full energy they put into every song on this video just blows my fucking mind. The power, the tightness, the skilled musicianship by all of them, and most of all, the pure hardcore adrenaline without even a hint of cheesy heavy metal. Way ahead of their time, under appreciated, ripped off by their record companies, living in punk rock poverty yet giving it their all, every fucking song. You can tell they're having fun, but also that they take the music seriously...like they were all tapped into something bigger than the sum of their parts. They must have practiced all the time to make it look so easy. Best punk band ever.
+demolazer that's very debatable and most likely not. he wasn't even playing with them when they wrote a good majority of the songs they played during the video.
+Abraham Garcia I know he didn't write any of it, Bomer did. I mean that on stage he is the lead instrumentalist, such is his stage presence, energy and brilliant playing. The bass takes prominence here, which i love.
Ok Now watched about 300 times. A tip for it sounding good, I have a hifi amplifier and by putting on the 'loudness' setting, turning the treble down a bit and the bass up a bit, now I have it at huge volume and it sounds balanced with the a nice deep bass.
saw them in Philly(1985ish) with Dr Know and NECROS... their set changed my life... my band does a cover of THINK POSITIVE 2019 34 years later... my favorite band ever!!!

I’ve been to about 50 RKL show and I would say that they are the best Punk/Rock band of all time. Always a big influence and impact on my hometown of Bakersfield CA. RKL should’ve been huge. Got to good friends with Bomer when I lived at cap street studios. Thank for posting these videos. Marc Mad Dog from The Mentors.
the top band back then in top shape. absolutely unmatched und wem angesichts dieses auftritts nicht die spucke wegbleibt, dem ist leider auch nicht mehr zu helfen. setlist couldn't be better in any way too and while the whole band is at their zenith here it's jason and bomer at their best.
They were at their peak at the wrong time and also because of Jason's vocals. Good frontman, but in reality, he was a terrible vocalist. For musicians of their caliber, they needed a singer of the same caliber.
They should have been huge. I hate saying this, but Jason is what really held them back. That, plus they were a 'punk' band...so in the late 80's, getting huge wasn't really going to happen. But despite being a good frontman, Jason's vocals were not appealing. Especially not to those who weren't into them. He always sounded like he was playing a character to me..and always sounded exactly the same.

You fuckin said it!
Amen.
well fkn said
cheesy heavy metal? wow
@@omar10213245 he might be thinking of sleazy cock rock à la Motley Crüe.
R.K.L. is the best Hardcore Band
Most talented musicians in Punk Rock history.
Bomer, Jason, Chris , Barry, lil Joe ...this is RKL
Joe Raposo is such a well-practiced bass player. Much respect.
Yes, he was not only for me one of the best bass Player in HC forever!
Queef He's also the lead instrumentalist :D
+demolazer that's very debatable and most likely not. he wasn't even playing with them when they wrote a good majority of the songs they played during the video.
+Abraham Garcia I know he didn't write any of it, Bomer did. I mean that on stage he is the lead instrumentalist, such is his stage presence, energy and brilliant playing. The bass takes prominence here, which i love.
He did write all the bass on Riches to Rags though. Bomer wasn't around then.
This might be the best liveshow on whole TH-cam, in my opinion the best liveband in Punkhistory, 88-89 ❤❤❤
Ok Now watched about 300 times. A tip for it sounding good, I have a hifi amplifier and by putting on the 'loudness' setting, turning the treble down a bit and the bass up a bit, now I have it at huge volume and it sounds balanced with the a nice deep bass.
RKL at their prime! Holy shit, what a show! :D
they had 3 primes haha so you're right .. this rips
saw them in Philly(1985ish) with Dr Know and NECROS... their set changed my life... my band does a cover of THINK POSITIVE 2019 34 years later... my favorite band ever!!!
Awesome. RKL in the 80's were super fun to see live. The good old days. I grew up in the same punk scene with them in Santa Barbara, Ca.
We opened for them during this tour in 1989 in a improvised live house in Paris suburbs... such a GREAT band! One of the best at this period!
That's cool yes what a great band

Greatest Punk/hardcore Band of all Time. What a Drumming!!!!
the best punk band ever !!! never cell out !
i ve seen rkl a couple times BUT I CANT REMEMBER ANYTHING there was ted with them.. europe... GREAT BAND... A METEOR
saw them twice in the 80's . Second time as supporting act, they were looking after the gig for a place to party and sleep.
Jan Drost Josh Brolin was the drummer of RKL in the early days
@@cron205 he was close friends with Jason but he wasn't a drummer
One of my all time favorites!!! All of them are the best.
amazing upload! Solid filming for the 80's and great sound. RKL members are missed by many.
the top band back then in top shape. absolutely unmatched und wem angesichts dieses auftritts nicht die spucke wegbleibt,
dem ist leider auch nicht mehr zu helfen. setlist couldn't be better in any way too and while the whole band is at their zenith here it's jason and bomer at their best.
simply the best (tina t.)
Lil’ Joe is 50 now. Ha! Still the master
I doubt he could play bass this crazily anymore lol
@@demolazer you’re mistaken duder. Guy shreds better than ever. Just saw em few months ago
@@ryj44 by them do you mean RKL in some form? I've not been paying attention to music news anything could have happened
best band!!!
geil! die tour hab ich in der arena gsehn! super!
Glückwunsch. Ich hab sie in den 80ern, im ehemaligen West Berlin gesehen, wo dieses Doppel Album aufgenommen wurde.
RKL in their prime!
hardcore perfected.
too fuckin good
I remember the bassist.. such a spoilt little rich kid !!
FUCKING AWAESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Little Joe is actually wearing a "small" shirt.
Man I wish they were just a little tighter. Holy shit for the love of god. How the fuck did they do that? Incredible.
Why did they newer blow up??
They were at their peak at the wrong time and also because of Jason's vocals. Good frontman, but in reality, he was a terrible vocalist. For musicians of their caliber, they needed a singer of the same caliber.
Drugs
@1:05 hahahaa

I love Jason's voice! Keep Laughing got me hooked and I never looked back. RIP Jason and Bomber!
We have seen the result of RKL without Jason: Reactivate. Without Jason there is no RKL.
Yes they did great without him... RKL is Jason ☠️
doux jesus
