This is nothing short of a dream come true. I've been searching and praying, hoping to find footage of this ever since The Nuggets compilation was released. I started seeking this out since UA-cam has been around. I've always was wondering what is going on in the performance for this song when he says to someone "What are you smiling about you fat teenager, I aint smiling,baby. Don't smile at my Gigs" ! How is this footage just turning up now after all this time? Thank you very much to whoever found and posted this ! I'm truly thankful to see this footage. Now if there was only footage for "Love Bone" ! 🤘🎶
When I first bought the “Nuggets” compilation, I too had always felt the same way about this performance! It’s fascinating to see it finally come to life.
Pretty sure this is Montreal 6th December 1981, from the 'Follow The Sun' Tour. The performance and arrangement is exactly the same as the Toronto show from December 12th. What an awesome band, including Carlos Alomar!
Awesome! The City TV broadcast of this also featured a great couple of songs from Teenage Head, and also Iggy doing "Party" and "Dum Dum Boys." Before Party, he picks on a kid - maybe the guy he's provoking in this video - saying he has "little pink nipples and a little bow mouth like a little girl," and spits on him; the kid retaliates by saying "Fxck Bowie!" and Iggy laughs and comes back with, "Fxck Bowie? You'd like to, wouldn't you!" Just great. That's Bowie guitar regular Carlos Alomar in white, not getting much acknowledgement from Ig.

The more poor the quality the better it sounds
3 minute mark:. "What are you smiling at you fat teenager?". Hilarious!
"Don't smile at my Gigs" !
3mins20 ... have to agree with Igs appraisal of the 'TV Eye live' lp....
