The Deviants (Last Men Standing) -- Warm up gig for Glastonbury festival 2011 PART ONE

Part ONE ( the footage came as twp files - I see no reason why they can't be loaded into a single you tube folder so they run together rather than having a stupid break, especially as the first track of part two was woefuly under-rehearsed. It was much better at glastonbury and it one of my fave songs but the band couldn't suss the timing for ages... it was the line 'black fur hat and cherry red lipstick' that made Sandy insist that i include it - orignally it was gonna be Two-Headed dog by Roky Erckson' but Russell, a big fan, insisted I got the intro exactrly rght, whereas I tend to aim for feel over accuracy. 'Last Men Standing' a temporary name for The Deviants as we rehearsed and perfromed our first full gig with all the band. Previous outings with members misssing were as the Portobello All Stars, Mick N Tim, Mick And Fairy Friends' most of which took place in the year or so before And C returned from the USA but Mick had already come back, one or two were done when Mick was visitng. This particular gig was arranged by the Real Music Club, though it wasn't one of their monthly gigs. This was a live rehearsal for the bands then forthcoming Glastonbury appearance where they appeared on the 1971 stage to mark the festivals 40th anniversary.. Both Russell and Sandy appeared at tha original event as the Pink Fairies and Mick was their representing the Underground Press (Nasty Tales was busted while they were there) The Pink Fairies set in 1971 was made available in audio on the triple album of the event released in 1972 which (although the set is now widely available) 3 disc set sells for several hundred pounds. This line up of The Deviants (or The Last Men Standing') stars Mick Farren on vocals and inspiration; Duncan 'Sandy' Sanderson on free Bass; Tim Rundall on open stooge guitar and slide. plus strat ; Andy Colquhoun on deadly radar pinpoint guitar and riffage ; Jaki Windmill on Djembe and percussion ; Russell Hunter - extreme drums, taste and machine gun percussion spray. The first of many live appearances by this line up which was only completed when Andy returned from LA saw the band playing at high volume to a wildly excited crowd. Though the Glastonbury set was slicker this has a threatening undercurrent is challenging the universe to a duel. We won.
