2024 still on fire 🔥🔥🔥😎👌

That little doc brought it all back…. Hearing them on Peel’s show, recording their magnificent sessions on cassette, buying the first album, searching out their gigs in the south east, going to the gigs with the rest of the skatebparder crew, playing that album and tapes to death, meeting them pre gig and ordering them a pint over a chat, feeling frustration at why the hell they wouldn’t ”lift”, being proud and happy to have gone to so many of their wonderful gigs, sorrow at the split from my mates in England and getting out of the loop after my move to Sweden and to cap it all - hearing of Cathal’s demise. I still play their music nearly every day. Long live Microdisney!

Love this song regards mike ❤

Love it! Cathal always looked to me as if he was telling the audience to fuck off using the most eloquent lyrics imaginable. Fantastic band!

One of the Best Calypsonians ever and my partner, Melo.

Brilliant!!

Best Nite Flights version EVER

Tiene un aire a Tears for Fears.

Tremendous!

40 anos atrás ❤️ uma música muito melhor que várias da atualidade.

Say what!

What a great find 👏

merci

Awesome thank you. Sadly, despite having found Peel in 1984, I managed to totally miss every Microdisney session, otherwise I would have been at this as a fresh faced 17 year old. As it was I caught a repeat broadcast their last session by which time it was too late. Thankfully I did see FMs.

Golden age of wireless was a very under rated album

wow. bassist doing some interesting stuff. amazed they got signed, seems too interesting, even for the experimental 80s. cheers.

A few of these I haven't heard before. Where does the LP title come from, anyone know?

Still great

I never appreciated them until about 94.Always good at festivals.Keep music Evil.

It was Peel that brought me to Microdisney. I was in a hospital bed when the first session was aired and, being somewhat out of it on hospital drugs, remember floating to the end of my bed whilst listening to that session Subsequently saw them twice in Manchester, the first time bumping into them both in the street and Cathal asking if we knew where the venue was. I pointed out the venue and asked if they would be playing 586. They both took a step back, clearly utterly surprised, and asked, " You know who we are?". My mate and I had travelled 30 miles to see them and only knew the venue because we'd just had an early pint there and had headed off to find more beer. They did play 586. It was a really good gig in an intimate venue...a pub. Just right for them methinks. Second time was at Band on the Wall if I remember rightly and Cathal had probably had more to drink than I had. Live , wickedly gobby and exuberant is how I will remember him. Amongst all the wonderful other things, what about that voice?!? You've given me 40 years of joy, bless you for that.

This is just the version from the Intoxifornication album.

“And when I’m lonely, I do tricks for the barmaid , she is not amused”, Coughlan and O’Hagan, geniuses unrecognised!

Thanks for this

Treasures like this are what UA-cam was invented for! This version People Just Want To Dream is awesome. Plus Half a Day and a track previously unknown to me that I can't understand why they didn't put out! 😊

Ma jeunesse❤

Thank you for putting this together.

What a voice

What are the lyrics?

Was this gig a support slot to That Petrol Emotion? Nonetheless, thanx for upload.

Nice!

I sometimes dream of an alternate universe where Sean and Cathal's artistry is properly recognised and U2's overblown pomposity never got further than Dublin's Dandelion Market. It keeps me warm of an evening. Thank you for these pearls Mike❤

How on earth was this song not a HIT? Did someone in the biz hate them?

Mrs. Simpson is quite Walkeresque. What material!!

What’s this song about?

I really miss this band

Back when Indie was individual , not a Generic sound .

Do you have a recording of the full show per chance?

I don’t know…and didn’t know off them then either. Were they trying to be like The Cure, The Associates, Wah or Orange Juice - all of whom preceded micro disney anyway?

I was there! Microdisney were superbly tight and the Go-Betweens were brilliant too! Great gig! The aftershow party was a bit messy however!🤣Happy days!

Sean’s country style guitar is sublime! 💚

Пацаны вообще класс мне нрав хороший

Keith talked in alpha numerals.

Fantastic stuff. These songs still absolutely shine.

Thank you, Mike. 💫

Thrilled to find this thanks so much for uploading. I was at this, and besides adoring them I’ve dined out on the memory of him saying ‘young people are very very stupid’ for 38 years and there it is! I’m not mad. Thank you

I was sent on site to photograph a bit of this! Big buddies of this band and they deserved better recognition ! Wonderful band!

Their Peel sessions cd is v good

My favourite band from the 80s, should have been massive. Still listen them regularly, they're timeless . Love High Llamas too ,and Cathals solo work. RIP 🙏

the talent of Lord Melody is amazing and outstanding he should have been given a Grammy award for his song writing skills
