Fucking awesome performance of King Diamond and his band, at Aardschokdag, Holland (20-4/86). This song is from their first album "Fatal Portrait", from 1986.
Mate, "fucking awesome" is soooo underated in this context - it took me until 2016 to finally get to see the band and guitarist (Andy Laroque) that turned me from a Punk into a long-haired Metal Head and inflicted me with a passion to learn to play guitar - hearing "The Candle" back in '86 was *THE* track that did that, and I've never looked back. PS - the first KD album was "Fatal Portrait" and not "The Portrait" but I'm sure you knew that and it was a simple typo 😝
denner using a stealth? =cool laroque using a jackson?= weird back then i thought andy loved his bc riches as well. hmm maybe he switched just before or for abigail?. That stealth is hot though looks like an nj newfound respect for denner for me. \m/

Undoubtedly King's best live performance. He is immaculate
The King era begins AMAZING ALBUM FATAL PORTRAIT truly original artist there will never b another, THANK U KING.
Saw this tour in Branford, CT at a place called Sneakers. Kind Diamond headlined - opening acts were Megadeth and Blessed Death. Summer of 86'.
Always awesome when people recognise that there were/are other fantastic musicians in this band.
what a great band!!!!...
Damn, I got goosebumps!
Saw this show with Megadeth as openers here in Seattle. King got impaled by the gate for the first half! Great fun, good times..

@VippaXD a video from '86 with a home-use tape camera, has to suck. HD was not available for general public. Don't be so negative.
Fucking Timi Fucking Hansen
Awesome
Their debut is called FATAL PORTRAIT. Not The Portrait.
so?
La raja !!!!!!

denner using a stealth? =cool laroque using a jackson?= weird back then i thought andy loved his bc riches as well. hmm maybe he switched just before or for abigail?. That stealth is hot though looks like an nj newfound respect for denner for me. \m/
It's sad to see King going insane on his own. The whole band should have make up like him to elevate the psychotic atmosphere on that stage.
I mean Portrait
that organ keyboard or w/e sounds like a baseball match xD haha anyway, HAIL THE KING !
drakkon8 it's Fatal Porttait, not just The Portrait
That's a good microphone and the another ones shit
retro as shit
the one responsible for the dud candle died from a terrible curse and now suffers eternal damnation in Hell
that means ur 4 years old
Hail King! Hail Satan!
what the fuck?! the album is entitled "Fatal Portrait" not "The Portrait"!!!
so?
Video quality sound sucks
