I was at their first gig in Liverpool in the 80s. It was at the Flying Picket, there were 7 people in the audience. They put on an incredible show. It was self evident that they were going to be massive commercially and culturally. Sean William Ryder the bastard son of John Lennon.
Their own individual sound, Manc swagger & charisma of real life lads living suburban times that appealed to so many of people from same lifestyles experimenting and enjoying new and different sounds. It wasnt about talent but enjoying & creating grooves and tunes that made people dance in a new way than before, that looked and was cool. Catchy funky M sic that worked with Shaun’s Manc scally lyrics so different, poetic, storytelling and on point, brilliant descriptive, phrases and saying from Mancunia and his own so clever terms. With Bez the wired freaky dancer people loved and definitely added something more, stand out and people wanted to be like. It worked well at the time. There’s been nothing as cool in music to this time of Manchester music that was so obviously from Manchester.
its as shame theyre mostly known for being off their heads on e, every member of the band was incredibly good and the first two albums shouldnt be overlooked
I am falling in love with this band 30 years on... I was born in the states in 1991, so I had no idea they existed. Shaun would have been fun to hang with!
Me and my mate Spike went to this concert on the Saturday night the 24th march they played 2 nights at the g-mex, as I recall the line-up was A Guy called Gerald then 808State ( who were awesome) followed by the Mondays , I was only 22 fuck me wheres the last 30 years gone lol.....
I was there. It was wonderfully chaotic. It seems different looking back at it. I have a photo of me and my friend sat on the steps of the The Hacienda afterwards, first in line. Taken on a disposable camera, no phones. Lol. The shutter was still down. Thanks for posting.
Pills, Thrills and Bellyaches was a CD that I constantly rocked in 1990 and 91. It twisted my melon, for sure… well, it wasn’t just that album that twisted my melon. 😏
What an underrated band. They should have just hammered out gigs in Detroit, Chicago and Florida. I reckon those crowds would have taken to it a bit more. The whole dance scene owes everything to these lads. Anyone else remember all those 12" remixes DJ's would play before "Rave" or "Techno" existed as a concept. When "Techno" basically meant 'Kraftwerk'! New Order, 808State and Altern8 where the only other bands actually writing original material for the Dance people to reproduce and mix into their live sets, for a while at least. Amazing!! Then that "Radio Friendly" music came out where they got female models to mime for MTV vidz, Wow. It went down hill so quick, illegal raves, warehouse parties and island festivals kept it all a float but, for most, who were introduced to music through mainstream radio, it was stuff like '2 Unlimited' - "...No! No! there's no Limit". Oh dear, Christ on a Bike Meash! LOL az Fek!
around same time 808 state & guy called gerald were going in manc, unique 3 were going in dirty bradders, ital rockers, nightmares on wax and LFO were going in that Leeds and forgemasters and sweet exorcist were going in sheff
I saw The Happy Mondays a couple of times- including after they got back from their insane trip to Barbados. It was a massive party but they had the groove. The way they walk on here sums it up.
Me too. I was on the train escaping from my library job in Manchester. Because I was not feeling too well. Guess who was in the same carriage? Bez, eating KFC. Just me and him. He went "alright" and put a thumbs up. I just went, hiya Bez. Lol. I half expected him to freaky dance up the aisle. Lol.
Why is nobody saying anything about the bass, the guitars, the keyboards, the drumming, the lead vocals, Bez iconic dancing, the lightshow, why is nobody saying anything about the smoke machine?
Me and a group of mates went that night, me and 1 mate didnt have tickets, thiught the touts would have sone but out of luck. Wentvto the boardwalk and blur were on. There were 3 people in that night. Blur sat about playing hurdy gurdy's.
i just watched the 24 Hour Party People movie. I thought they were exaggerating with the Happy Mondays bits but oh boy they weren't. This is madness. They seem to be doing drugs onstage, the singer is reading the lyrics on a sheet of paper, everything is un-cordinated, there's a dude with maracas tripping the fuck out, they brought in an elder guest singer and they just left him there walking in circles 30 minutes after they finished their song together.
Karl Denver was definitely aware of the vibe haha he'd been around the block man by then. MDMA makes people just vibe out and in my opinion its a mix of being high as fuck on multiple drugs (band and crowd both) and just not caring that led them to their height... alll the way to their infamous Barbados ending lol But the movie was mad exagerrated man, Shaun only read off the paper for Step On because A. It was brand new at the time, and B. It was a cover song lol i mean yeah sure he's on heroin but still
It could be lingering stage fright, or nerves, or the imminent fear of the plebs throwing and hurling bottle at his throat and head, which could, indirectly affect his ability to recall often improvised, unpolished and maybe unrehearsed lyrics, on the spot, while keeping time with the various sound streams emanating from the keyboards and rhythm section.
@@basedsouljah well, considering I was only 14 at the time,but I've gone on to see a couple more don't worry!!!,,,😎👍😁,and headline the hacienda with my own band in 97,,so I'm a little bit interesting!!
The idea of having a dude like Bez is damn creative, don't know if the most creative idea I've ever seen, but it's damn creative I gotta say. Also shows Shaun & Bez being great pals, no man left behind.
Not that new at all , hawkwind had Stacia , and yeah cressa was a vibe man for the roses , kiss had one who used to introduce them as the greatest band in the world , it’s all part of 😂the act
What an amazing show. The HM sound great and the crowd is dancing their asses off. It must have been really fun to see them live. And also be part of the Manchester scene starting with Joy Division and the beginning of Factory Records to getting down at The Hacienda to that Madchester sound and vibe.
@@SuzanneO707 That is awesome you were at that show. What other bands were you into from that era? I just watched the Stone Roses documentary about they're reunion tour...That is sad news about the Hacienda. I've seen the same thing happen to some of my favorite venues. i guess change is inevitable.
@@stevesheldon2342 It was fun, chaotic and very visceral. I racked over to the Hacienda afterwards with my gig/clubbing pal.

You can see the gig poster pasted on the wall behind us.We just wanted to get in and dance, we didn't drink much or do "anything" else. Yep, change comes. Best wishes.
Sorry, other bands.... I was in bit of state of flux between the bands around at the time and belting songs out before that, The Smiths, Joy Division, New Order, The Fall, Echo and The Bunnymen etc Dance music was my bag too. I was brought up hearing a lot of Northern Soul, punk, Bowie, ska & Mowtown & great "indie bands". I tend to like certain tunes. The Stone Roses were special. One of my favourite tunes was Perfume by The Paris Angels. It was great to see local kids up there making music. And go to gigs where people danced and all that.
@@CroTube5000 looks like that's what he's taken and that's the one they were known for .... apart from Shaun who did them as a starter then went a bit harder for his main course..
I saw the movie version of 24 hour party people and it blew my mind. I'm from memphis, and this music wasn't nearly as popular here, so it really snuck up on me. Ya'll were aggressively challenging genre and format, more worried about conveying feeling than anything else. Got linked to the new Shaun Ryder Mumbo Jumbo video and have been falling down the rabbit hole ever since.
I was at audio school in 1990 and had no idea who this band was. Technology sucked back then, hard to find good music. One radio station playing crap, one tv station. Word of The Stone Roses got out but never heard of Mondays until years later.

Nah just off his nut on drugs 😂
He had some help though , we all did
I’m assuming Bez was the maracas dancing sensation

Saw them in 1990 at the Hollywood Palladium with 808 State, Adamski & A Guy Called Gerald. Loved it!!!

Spent many an evening in my teens watching this with ma mates. An E and the G-Mex. Perfect night.

Colin, I remember that MC Buzz b was on first on one night - I think we were super lucky to have been the right age at the right time
Were disco biscuits consumed..
Absolutely love Happy Mondays. Brilliant vibes. Bummed and Thrills and Pills are excellent albums. So funky. Bez is an absolute legend!
not really, since he's a wife-beating prick
Just realised there was film of this... And I was there...!!! Pity I can't remember a bloody thing about this gig... Awesome...!!
Miss those days Thiers nothin like the raves of the 90s we need a new music scene for people Thiers been nothing for 20 yrs
I’ll tell you one thing, in the days before industrialization, Bez would’ve been a great grape stomper. The best, in fact!

Mark Day, a great guitar player!!

I see loads of love for Paul Ryder’s bass playing - rightly so - but Mark Day is the most underrated guitarist ever. Unique.
Is have fuckin´ fun!
Aye, Top notch with them Strings.

best band ever, all bands late 80s were posh studenty types, then these lads came along that were like my mates and that
everyone was so high they didn't think that absolutely no one could hear bez's fkn shakers
Really wish they’d release this on DVD and a music download. Great gig.
Watch the "Call the Cops" US tour 1990 its fookin mental in an awesome way
One of the best videos ever. Thank you, Manchester, Love from Edinburgh.

Outstanding gig. Had to look up who the dude in the Top Gun hat was - Scottish singer Karl Denver.
Look up Carl Denver Wimoweh, Shaun liked his yodling (source: the movie 24 hour party people)
Been Mondays supporting act in Hong Kong, so groovy, beautiful memories indeed
Love the way Shaun has to read the lyrics off some scaby paper, I would probs have to do the same when I left my brain in the dressing room
to be fair to Shaun the band had just learned it the night or two before, and it was a cover.
