    they were so way ahead of their time, and still they have a type of sound thats barely even been explored in the music industry still. you can see the heavy influence they had on nin and manson in their early years. now a days though you dont see anyone being this creative

      FACT!! I started listening to Ministry as a young teen, and always idolized Al as a musical genius. I mean seriously, how ORIGINAL he always was (is). It's just so awesome!! 🤘🤘

    Ministry at their best. One of the best intros ever. Very tribal (like Killing Joke). I wish this tune as well as all of the live set was released with the live EP when it came out.

      Sorry there , you are right , it´s just that at the time we didn´t consider " * edit : (wtf, this might be early signs of dementia or sth ) In case you didn´t feel like showing up " ( the cd ) as an EP . We just referrd to it as a live album , and that is where I assumed it had the same content the VHS cassette did ( which is a mistake ) . You are absolutely right ( not sure about the EP though , since , believe it or not , this came out at a time when Vinyl was getting substituted by cd at an alarming rate - curious times , you would be surprised to see almost everybody exchanging their Vinyls by cds - a highly over hyped novelty was what it was ... not much has changed , huh ? ) .

    I saw them at Mississippi Nights on this tour in 89' in St. Louis. And it was pretty much just like the video. It is a bit hard to really describe such a show in such a small venue. Only about 150 people there, most drove down from Chicago I guess.
    I knew their songs before seeing them for the first time here but I was pretty much in shock. Not from the antics, but from the sheer wall of sound. I think I just stood in the area behind the crowd surfers with my jaw resting on the floor. Epic!

    Some of this was filmed in Atlanta and I am still pissed I missed this show. I was 17 and it was 18 an up. My buddies who are a few months older than me went and are in the front row. One of them is in the video. About 4:50 in the front row. I did get to see the band a couple of years later and they did most of the good stuff off of Mind and LORAH. That show was damn good too, but missing this one still irks me.

Coolest thing about the skinny dude - crowd surfing an entire song. Some of the best days for sure my friend, for sure!! When this fired up it felt like it was coming from inside your soul and joining the crowd into one unstoppable monster. And I was totally sober, but the show was Dope AF. Great observations !!!
