My first show that wasn’t something my mom brought me to was the Wrong Turn Down Memory Lane tour in Nelson in 92. We got to Nelson early, walked around Baker St looking for lsd, found some apparently Grateful Dead stuff, ate two before the show. During the first local high school band I tried stage diving. There was no one there to catch me and I smacked my face off someone’s head putting my tooth through a large part of my lip. Bleeding heavily everywhere I continued moshing until the promoters forced me to go to the hospital for stitches. They sewed me up, flying high and I managed to make it back for the SNFU set, moshed the rest of the set, probably bleeding all over everyone. During the last song they invited everyone on stage and we broke the fuck out of it. Few shows following lived up to that one. RIP Mr Pig, apologies for showering you with water.
Great show for the early 90s. Great sound and video. My favorite snfu shows were at fenders ballroom long Beach in 86 87 and 89 on the " if you swear you'll catch no fish" album tour and "more fun than a stick in the eye" album tours didn't get a chance to see them in the 90s but those mid to late 80s snfu shows were some of the best memories and best live punk rock shows ever!! Rip Ken chin aka chi pig you will always be in our hearts! Thanks for the fun times and your off the wall performances! Thanks, ken (rip)Brent muc Dave Rob and John, for touring those years to southern California, roughing it out in the van to play with and for all of us down here in LA OC and SD.
This video is killer. I did a show for them a few years later in Redding CA. It was the highlight of all the shows I ever put on or even went to. A very special band who has been meaningful to me from my teenage years until today. I just turned 50 and their songs keep paying dividends to the listener. Forkin keeeelar.
There's me old buddy on the bass . . . Rob "Fresh Bread" Johnson . . . before he was in SNFU we played in a little band together in Edmonton called the Dimestore Hoods . . . we did quite a few shows opening for the Wheat Chiefs (the Belke brothers band betwixt SNFU incarnations) and Rob was their roadie . . .
@@itch1991 Little known fact - when Rob joined SNFU he wanted to get me to play drums . . . unfortunately, I was incognito at the time . . . I had disappeared into the forest for a few years and missed out on a great chance to play with a legendary band.
@@cseguin Interesting RG. We all have missed opportunities, lol. Once, in '92 I got asked for my band to play with Tool & Rage A.T.M, in L.A., to be paid $800US, & I turned it down 'cause I had never heard of those bands, & I'd still lose money on the trip. Doh! Did you tree plant during those forest years?
@@itch1991 That would be quite an experience to play on that bill. I didn't tree-plant. I went to college and took forestry and ended up being a consultant for a few years until my knees called it quits and I moved back to Edmonton and picked up the sticks again in a band called Gate . . . and now I live on a wee island off the coast of Vancouver Island in a cabin in the woods and haven't touched the skins in around 5 years . . . ain't life strange.
@@cseguin Ok thx for the further info. I couldn't find any trace of Gate to listen to. I live in Vancouver so I'm curious what wee Island have you chosen?
I was supposed to see these guys at the Epitaph Summer Nationals in NYC in '97 but they got stopped at the border and couldn't make the show. Wish I could have seen tehm live before Mr Chi Pig's passing. =(
Being in the presence of Chi was a transformative experience. Being able to somewhat relive that experience with footage like this is magnificent. Thanks SNFU for all the great years and Chi for his on/offstage charisma and energy!
My younger husband is playing Pennywise under the carport, I'm like, I don't know but that sounds like snfu.hes like, YEAH..im like YEAH.. NICE guys from caNAidia. Fucking tore that lil club UP in bham YRS ago!!
Wow just one camera, and this is so good to see and hear... Imagine the live recording nowadays, so boring especially with cellphone or one camera, Ridateci gli anni 90,💕
Hi Anthony. Thanks for the nice comment! I'm glad I (Sony Hi8 analog) recorded it all those years ago, and to see that folks now enjoy the band and that performance!
thank you , so good to see this show from early 90's , i' ve been 14 years (1991), and listen with a cassette player Snfu stuff while riding bmx ....so nice music -so nice times.
What a fantastic Surprise, as I just about to click on your 17 minute version as it's one of my favorite live shows on UA-cam with my favorite SNFU Lineup. Take care and Thank you for making my Day!
@@itch1991 What a great show, playing tracks from my favorite LP The One Voted Most Likely to Succeed. The sound is fantastic. I love Dave Rees his Bass/ Snare/ Ride drum sound on classics like , I Forget, In the First Place, She's not on the Menu, Time to Buy a Futon. The were all on fire on this night. Outstanding Performance.
@@the_muddy_waters Thanks for the further note D.E. I sent the vid first to Dave Rees for permission to post and he thought it had great sound too. Cheers! m.
@@itch1991 I have this playing with a 70s Marantz amp and I would say this sounds better then And Yet Another Pair of Lost Suspenders! That is cool that Dave Rees gave permission!
@@itch1991 thanks to you! who do you think would make it in a challenge of stamina on stage....Iggy or Chi? hehe...god damn this man was just such an amazing person all around!
@@locustreign6853 Hi LocusT. Neat question. No correct answer. Though a fun memory surfaced for me when I danced by myself to iggy's show at the back of the balcony seats at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto back in the early 80's, lol.
Was this at the starfish room? I got knocked over by chi pig at that show.. he rolled o er me on his skateboard at the bar. He bought me a beer from the front of the line. And I was stoked . Like nobody else .
I said good times….but I remeber always having to leave shows early because of that fucking sky train shutting at 1230. Otherwise to get back to the burbs you’d have to take the dreaded #19 to Metrotown. Ugh nightmares of that bus ride persist to this day.
please somebody tell me the venue they played - I live in vancouver and my friend and I are betting on it - i believe this is the commodore is this correct? love you all and also I live downtown east side and had the privilege of saying hello to Chi as an aquaintance and had no idea how amazing he was until after his death omg love to all wendy
Hi Wendy. I filmed this SNFU show at the Ken Jensen memorial concert on March 3, 1995 at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver. Joe from DOA was the host. NoMeansNo/The Hanson Bros & myself also played. Cheers! Mark C.
When wasn’t he mad? I met him twice and managed to piss him off both times somehow. First time I can see as I sprayed him with water after wetting my hair and flipping it around while he was stretching in the corner. I was high on lsd and probably wasn’t as considerate as I usually am. Second time and last time seeing them I thanked him for coming to Nelson and asked if he was planning on playing Cheap Transistor Radio. Well, THAT set him off. Still a great show even though he looked nothing like the first time I saw him. Voice was still strong although the teeth were gone.

This tour and its lineup was hands down the best show I have seen. RIP CHI
Best SNFU line-up ever: Chi, Belke bros, Rob and Dave
I don't know .... Card and Bacon were the killer rhythm section , not taking anything away from Dave and Rob

This was my first show. I wish I could find the picture of Chi next to me in a stroller. I love you Kenny.
SNFU were so awesome to see live.

39:24 Why was Chi mad? He said that guy punched him? It didn't really look like it, were they upset because he spent too much time on stage?
When wasn’t he mad? I met him twice and managed to piss him off both times somehow. First time I can see as I sprayed him with water after wetting my hair and flipping it around while he was stretching in the corner. I was high on lsd and probably wasn’t as considerate as I usually am. Second time and last time seeing them I thanked him for coming to Nelson and asked if he was planning on playing Cheap Transistor Radio. Well, THAT set him off. Still a great show even though he looked nothing like the first time I saw him. Voice was still strong although the teeth were gone.
which venue /
were they from edmonton?
originally yes, later relocated in Vancouver
