ISO: Stockholm Monsters live recordings.

Are there any out there? Does anyone here have any? I really, really like this band, and have for quite some time, but have never put any feelers out there for any live stuff. I've got a decent size list of New Order and other stuff to trade.

I'd be curious if any exist!

I did record them once (Birmingham Tower Ballroom 1985), but it wasn't good, sound or performance, and the tape was soon converted to a Bunnymen gig !

Have a contact with a trader who has these:

An interesting tape would be from Brixton Ace 83 where they fought with each other onstage

Erm, you don't give an email contact, but you can just email the@new-order.net with the info...

Wow! Thanks for the response. Can you send me an email, as yours isn't there. Hopefully we can arrange something.

& one of the guitars ended up getting chucked into the crowd from memory. My god, 20 years ago!!!

Well, I just got my copy of The Last One Back CD which features Stockholm Monsters demos/live/unreleased, and I hereby rescind my request for said live material. PLEASE do not send me any info regarding the acquisition of said recordings as it turns out there is a very good reason that there aren't many floating about: anyone who ever taped them probably taped ove rtheir recording as soon as they sobered up from the gig and realizing how crappy they were. Seriously, the live stuff on that disc is not good music.

I was at Brixton Ace 83, when they supported New Order, it was a bit mad to say the least.

Did they get their name from the Monster who played keyboards, does anyone know?
