    I went to six flags magic mountain in ‘82, and there were all of these people wearing black and white clothing, and I thought to myself what’s going on. To my wonderful amazement, I was able to witness the absolute talented performance of Missing Persons live and direct. Dale, Terry, Warren, and Patrick were on another level back then,

      Vitreous Lamella I have completely done the same thing. Enjoying their catalog so much, I was too young to really appreciate how good their musicianship and song writing at the time was.Terry Bozio, I read so many negative comments on his playing so often. Just cannot understand that. He has been a amazing talent for so long. i recently found out he played with Frank Zappa way back when. Dont know If you are a drummer or just appreciate the instrument. But his playing with FZ is pretty well documented on You Tube. A must listen. Songs were definetly a lil self indulgent musicians music. But the playing is just extraordinary.

      It helps that they had a real drummer, Terry Bozzio. As opposed to a cliche 80s drum machine or your typical new wave drummer. Bozzio played with Zappa during his creative peak, which means he played some of the hardest songs ever written. This was almost a step down for him, into the pop world. Or just a different direction. But he definitely gave this band some serious balls. Something a lot that music is missing.

    A precursor to the amazing Spring Session M album. Not their biggest hit, but this was the whoa! who the hell is this?? I remember the heavy airplay this got on KROQ here in L.A. when it came out. An L.A. band original!!

      This and "I Like Boys".
      At the time, they'd play just about anywhere.
      KROQ wasn't yet "The Roq of the 80's" but they'd still play music not heard anywhere else."
      Before Richard Blade - back when it was Raymondo and Evans in the morning and Rodney's show on Sunday night was a must listen.

    Hey , I don't know why there are not a million comments., but .. I have to tell you I saw you crazy fuckers at University San Diego in the summer of 1982 with Wall Of Voodoo (at UCSD) and it was completely insane. full riot , tear gas, slam dancing cops and Dale having enough of it hahah. the thing in San Diego at the time was throwing shoes at the band to show love. I was a Marine then, and after that show, I knew when I got out, in 1984 I would start a band, and I did. Thanks for all of that.

    This brings me back to the Summer of 1982 like it was yesterday! I was 12 and spent most of that summer in Canyon Country, CA where we spent lots of days at Magic Mountain and listening to Missing Persons and Oingo Boingo. New Wave was so fascinating to me!

    One of the most violent jams ever played...energy off the charts, but controlled... Terry Boz drumming was unearthly& Dale Boz did a great angst vocal job.Warren C guitar solo was of the wall.. all of it A+ would love to hear what Ga Ga thinks of this track... without a doubt she would say incredible...

    My band got to open for Missing Persons when they played Norman,Oklahoma in 1983. They were very friendly to us and made us feel important that evening. They were also impressed enough with our performance that they invited us to meet them in Philadelphia a few days later to finish out the tour with them. I needed more than a handshake and a couple days to get my life in order so I declined. There were 3 very upset people there for awhile. Sometimes I wonder..." what if " ? .
