When a band has songs like "Waterfront". I Travel". "This Fear of Gods". "Celebrate". "The American". "New Gold Dream". "Promised you a Miracle". "Alive and Kicking". "Belfast Child". "Hunter and the Hunted"." Book of Brilliant Things". "See the Lights". " She's a River". "Hypnotised". "Blindfolded"." Broken Glass Park". "Summer". "The Signal and the Noise". "Vision Thing". "Solstice Kiss". And many others. I know, I am watching and listening to my favourite band.❤❤❤. Great footage, marky. Thanks
Living in Scotland this band back in the 80s were producing the very best of sound I’m age’s with them now and they still are delivering a sound that is unique but so brilliant in class
I love the album big music it's top notch.theyve left their contemporaries like U2,DURAN, ECHO A T BUNNYMEN, AND MORE WAY BEHIND THEIR THE ONLY ONES STILL MAKIN BRILLIANT MUSIC TODAY
Cherise feels every note it's so evident ❤ Their New Gold Dream at Paisley Abbey was just astounding. Production wise it was immense. Hearing Colours Fly and Big Sleep was beautiful.❤
I first saw them in glasgow at the secc in 91 or something like that.When jim came on stage i just watched in awe at how he commanded the stage and had us eating out of the palm of his hand.Amazing 🏴💙❤
Hey … have you heard Mel’s new single “Run” .. it’s pretty good (kinda country/keltic sound with pop mixed in) … who knew the dude could sing? Drumming is missed in the Minds tho
I saw them in Taupo and yes they were average . The next night in Hamilton they nailed it. I've seen Simple Minds 15 times in concert and Taupo was not their best. But trust me they are normally awesome.
The Red Hot Summer tour with ICEHOUSE starts this Saturday... February 10 - Mornington, Vic. February 11 - Yarra Valley, Vic. February 17 - Sandstone Point, Bribie Island, Qld. February 21 - Perth, WA.
can u imagine U2 touring without adam and Larry this version of SM had less than half a engine no Derek Forbes the dan man no Mick no Mel or no Brian = no SM
Always the same old moans. Mick & Forbes left decades ago ,Cherisse is an amazing drummer for the retired Mel. Bands have to evolve & SM have done that. If you don’t like the 2024 version then don’t listen.
I have to agree. Simple Minds used to a powerhouse. They are not what they used to be. Reading up they chopped and changed the band alot. I saw them in '89 and was blown away. They have so many great songs and it's great to still see them out. Same as plenty of older bands not what they once were cool to hear some epic old 80's tunes live though.
I wish Jim Kerr could realise how annoying that stupid noise is that he keeps doing (2 min 35 sec). He did it throughout the last concerts I watched live and ruined them. It makes me never want to buy more tickets. Please stop doing it Jim 🙏
To bad the extremely talented Bernice Scott is off promoting her own new album. She was one of the shining stars in this compilation of sessions musicians. Her version of Speed Your Love To Me was one of Simple Minds' highlights in recent memory.
What a joy to see an 80´s band delivering and enjoying, passion for the music rather than most others just touring for the money and under performing. Hat off !

A band 🤣🤣😂🤣😂 only two left!
And almost 40 yrs later they still sound amazing! Thanks so much for posting this, what an awesome surprise!
the 80s were one of the best decades
The best
Hands down!
Living in Scotland this band back in the 80s were producing the very best of sound I’m age’s with them now and they still are delivering a sound that is unique but so brilliant in class
Being of a similar age to Jim I am envious of his ability to still crouch down that low.😊
i can crouch down low like that..just can't get back up.
@@TheStevehow Yeah I’d need a winch😄
:-)@@beds139
its all in the quality of the troosers
Thanks for All music from you
What a band Jim and Charlie absolutely fantastic best band I've ever seen live ❤❤🙏🙏
😮I'm 49 years old simple fan since the 80s I cried first time in 20 years thanks guys and girls...Thank you 😊
I love the album big music it's top notch.theyve left their contemporaries like U2,DURAN, ECHO A T BUNNYMEN, AND MORE WAY BEHIND THEIR THE ONLY ONES STILL MAKIN BRILLIANT MUSIC TODAY
Totally agree apart from leaving U2 behind, I cannot wait for the Hydro gigs tho.
Thanks Jim and all
Great as ever 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Long life Jim & Simple Minds ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Have always loved SM...saw them along time ago...Jim and co...are still amazing..so many great songs...❤❤❤
The voice, the boys on the guitar and bass...so good. But the girl on the drums!!!?? She absolutely made all this work!
Who is playing the bass on waterfront, as the bass player wasn't playing when it started ??????
The backing track
How much more of it is on tape ?
Holy crap... Simple Minds have still got it.
❤ I love them, my favourite band ever. I saw then live three times here in Spaim; always special. Thanks Mark
Thank you for posting. SM you sound lovely 🌹
Epic 👌✊
That lady drummer is epic.
Solstice Kiss sounds every bit as incredible as I hoped it would.
Cheers for posting, seeing them tonight in Syd.
Good coverage on this SM show
I got privilege to see SM in May 16 1986 in Montreal at The Forum
It was great saturday night to remembr folk's
So Long way they came from Scotland at their best on stage to prove music by them succsesfully must say Bravissimo ☆☆☆☆☆
Fantastic Concert great Show the best SM. Life to Berlin 👍
Thanks for Alive and Kicking - it wasn't played at Hamilton because of the early finish due to the weather.
Was at the Yarra Valley gig Australia last weekend 🇦🇺 they just get better and better thanks for coming down under.
Saw them in Edinburgh last summer. Awesome band.
AMOOOOOOOOOOO 🥰🥰 31:46 The Best!!
Blimey, Mel Gaynor's changed!
As have we all...
Let me see your hands!
Cherisse admirally filling Mel's shoes! Great playing ❤
She’s a size two trying to fit into a size thirteen … doesn’t quite fit? 😢
Not even close. She’s decent but no Mel Gaynor.
Mel had his time. Now she's having hers! 😍🥁
Cherise feels every note it's so evident ❤
Their New Gold Dream at Paisley Abbey was just astounding.
Production wise it was immense.
Hearing Colours Fly and Big Sleep was beautiful.❤
@@welshlad6427 Drop the comparisons and move on, and be grateful that fresh blood is driving the band.
Full support ❤..From italy
Thanks for posting! Seeing them on the 17th… they are sounding amazing!
Really enjoyable footage that made me feel like I was there .
Hope to see the band when they play Margate , England this summer
Gonna see them in Luxembourg in April, thanks a lot for the preview!
Awesome Day out!
The best music in the world..best band..😢
Great Band!!!! What an awesome crowd!!!! :~)
cherisse sossei druns arrebenta
At 1.47 the bass line cuts in - The bass player never plays it after too 😂
Belfast Child = great PERFORMANCE = ❤ YOUR FATHERS CALLING COMMON HOME 🏡
I first saw them in glasgow at the secc in 91 or something like that.When jim came on stage i just watched in awe at how he commanded the stage and had us eating out of the palm of his hand.Amazing 🏴💙❤
Thank-you for posting this so I may keep on track with the Group.... 😊😇
2 original members, 5 non original members. No SM for me anymore! They are shit these days
Hey … have you heard Mel’s new single “Run” .. it’s pretty good (kinda country/keltic sound with pop mixed in) … who knew the dude could sing? Drumming is missed in the Minds tho
SM is Jim and Charlie thats the spirit the rest of the members are hired musicians
Flogging a dead horse sad to see 😢😢😢
er the bassist ain't even playing for real?? backing track for sure
Like U2 then?
@@beds139 U2 bass is most definitely live
Why do you say that? He is definitely playing.
Thankyou for sharing this - 6 weeks for us to wait here in the UK - cannot wait !!!
Don't think the weather will match yours though !!!
xxxx
It wasn’t like that the whole day I tell ya lol
I saw them in Taupo a few days later, and they were crap. The crowd simply walked out, me included.
I saw them in Taupo and yes they were average . The next night in Hamilton they nailed it.
I've seen Simple Minds 15 times in concert and Taupo was not their best. But trust me they are normally awesome.
As if.
Band are looking good and having a good time
Amazing band. Still very good
Happy to have seen the SM in 1986. Now is just a pale remembrance. What a pity...
Simply Great!! 🔥 I’ve loved this band for years - Classic and still Cranking! 🤘🏼🎸🎹🥁✨
I appreciate the effort but you lost me when you cut off midway through the songs and then restart sometime later.
saw them 2 days ago in Mornington peninsula awesome live band
I love it!
The keyboard player is Erik Ljunggren
Thank you :)
@@MizzesB yes, he used to play with A-ha, and Morten Harket solo
Que privilégio poder assistir ao vivo essas feras. Um dia ainda os verei!! 🙏🏻🥰 AMOOOOOOOOO! 45:06
The Drummer! Kicks ass!
Feel like throwing all me minds vynal in the skip after this knackers, its not there best!
Super Band,in den 80ern sehr oft gehöhrt.
Absolute embarrassment to its former self.
Love Song ❤❤❤❤❤
Big music set list
Love Song & a few others, wasn't on Big Music
Me gustaría que Simple Minds viniera a Tenerife!
Just brilliant
Great on the spot sound n vision
was this the tour with Icehouse? I heard they planned to do some stuff in Australasia with Iva Davies?
The Red Hot Summer tour with ICEHOUSE starts this Saturday...
February 10 - Mornington, Vic.
February 11 - Yarra Valley, Vic.
February 17 - Sandstone Point, Bribie Island, Qld.
February 21 - Perth, WA.
Think Jim Kerr is a bit too old to be prancing about the stage like that
I TRAVEL !!!!!
And what about berenice Scott???
y siguen subiendo videos grabados anda a saber con que el audio es un asco
No hay komo .el batero original de la banda.era seco.
If there's no live Berenice (and her solo on Hunter & the hunted), this 2024 tour I'll miss.
Where is Berenice?
@@nylhood Who cares she's shit.
Your loss
Never the same after Derek Forbes left , its just the Jim and Charlie show now
I notice that they’ve got yet another new keyboard player . What happened to the blonde girl from their past couple of albums .
He is Erik Ljunggren, used to play with A-ha and also Morten Harket solo
I loved this band (once upon a time)
can u imagine U2 touring without adam and Larry this version of SM had less than half a engine no Derek Forbes the dan man no Mick no Mel or no Brian = no SM
U2 currently performing as U2 without Larry
U2’s last album Songs of Surrender was 99% just Bono & The Edge
Always the same old moans. Mick & Forbes left decades ago ,Cherisse is an amazing drummer for the retired Mel. Bands have to evolve & SM have done that. If you don’t like the 2024 version then don’t listen.
@@beds139 Mel ain’t retired ( he is gone) and has a new record out (it’s quite good from the tracks I ve heard so far?)
I have to agree. Simple Minds used to a powerhouse. They are not what they used to be. Reading up they chopped and changed the band alot. I saw them in '89 and was blown away.

Nice music.❤️❤️🎵🎵
Great group,still sounds good after all these years.
Don't look too good though.
I wish they played Seeing out the Angel from Sons And Fascination the most haunting and Atmospheric song they did apart from Hunter And The Hunted.
drumwoman...........fantastic
Let it all come down ❤❤❤😮😮😮❤❤❤
Who's the guy on the keyboards ?
To bad the extremely talented Bernice Scott is off promoting her own new album. She was one of the shining stars in this compilation of sessions musicians. Her version of Speed Your Love To Me was one of Simple Minds' highlights in recent memory.
Time to admit ..
.youve had your day ... nowt but a tribute band now ... sad but ✌️✌️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Shut up
WHY. WAS. THE. CONCERT. NOT. PLAYED. AT. NIGHT. ? I. LOVE. SIMPLE. MINDS. ONE. OF. MY. FAVOURITE. BAND'S. FOR. THE. ELECTRFYING. ENERGY. THE. SOUND
OF THE BAND BRINGS. 👌🤩😁👌😊
daytime? why?
Hunter and the hunted 🌹
The female singer dressed in black is the same backing singer they had in the 80's?
No
No that was Robin Clarke.
I'm 60 and grow up with this songs like this. come on , come to germany. I don't need mega light shows. Just the music makes me happy

What a joy to see an 80´s band delivering and enjoying, passion for the music rather than most others just touring for the money and under performing. Hat off !
What exactly is the point of Gordy Goudy? I find him a totally unnecessary and rather annoying addition.
lol
Holy fu@kballz when did Jim Kerr become such a hot daddy bear? 🥵🥵🥵
P r o m o s m
Let it all come down. What a great song. Street fighting years its a bit underated in my opinion. A masterpiece.
wunderschön 😍 danke mega ❤😏
Having the Sparks opening / intro track reminded me that The Darkness come on stage to
“ Arrival “ by ABBA .
Great venue
