J-Card Comment Siouxsie and the Banshees DVD
Live Paradiso Amsterdam July 17th 1981
From The PKP Vaults : Master Tape VHS PAL 85 minutes

So here as promised the next instalment from the PKP vaults: in 1981 Siouxsie gave a great concert at the Paradiso. We filmed it for the Amsterdam Pirate TV Station PKP with our portable VHS. We went to the Paradiso in the afternoon during the soundcheck, and it was the guitar player John McGeoch who talked to us and gave permission to film the concert that evening.
We filmed from he balcony , and even though it is of course VHS quality from the eighties, it is stil quite enjoyable to watch. The follow spot on Siouxsie shines a little too bright at times but her dancing is great. Plus the concert ends in my favourite song : Helter Skelter
After the concert we were allowed an interview, but the interviewer ( I forgot his name ) was a little intimidated by Siouxsie so could not really come up with any sensible questions, which resulted in Siouxsie getting slightly obnoxious, dipping our microphone in a glass of water and making fun of the interviewer and the cameraman. It's all a little uncomfortable, but I included it anyway, cause it is a rare oppotunity to see old footage of siouxsie talking.
We broadcasted several songs of the show later that summer, and somehow a copy of this VHS tape came into circulation, and the audio has also been ripped as a bootleg. This however is the best possible copy I could make from the original Master tape, which never left my house since 1981. Do not expect BBC broadcast quality. It is grainy and noisy VHS, but the best we had back in '81.
