I'm 60. I was 20 in 83 and loved heavy metal! No music ever influenced me in any way. People that have problems etc stems from family issues and parenting. All the pmrc did was to try and dump all their guilt on bands that play music they don't like. It's the most disgusting thing ever.

This tour played in Oakland on the night of the Oakland Hills Fire!! No joke. I knew all three bands. And they were right, there's overlap in fans, and if you only know one band, you're introduced to the others!! We need more genre-mixing shows!!! This was fantastic!!! Where the producers at??? Do stuff like THIS!!!

Gotta love this .. M. Downey smoking a cig and probably has a handle of scotch somewhere.. I am a 53 year old success story who was teen in the 80s.. Dee snider ripped em a new one! LOL!

The people that listened to metal and still do are the responsible hard working parents now ! 😂

How the hell the did the vocals on Debra?

Metal is so completely harmless compared to Trap: a corporate behemoth genre that is ALL about materialism and greed. What could lyrics about demons and monsters and partying possibly do to anybody?

Man that blonde from the audience at the 24-minute mark told Morton he was going to die of cancer because of the cigarette. Turned out she was right.

04:12 is that Brooks and Dunn?? 😅

I remember The Morton Downey Jr show. I used to watch this in the Late eighties.

This guy was a dinosaur that doesn’t know shit about Music

I do love Beck and his music but everything I see him I can’t help but think of a quote from another musical genius. “Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and fuck all his clones”.

I remember watching this live.

I'm a 58 year old metal head and I've been trying to think of any metal song that promotes the use of drugs or violence for that matter and I can't think of any song that does but I could be wrong. I just remember banging my head. 80s rock music to me was sex drugs and rock n roll and I lived it myself and loved every minute of it

Let's talk Classical music Classical music is one of the most amazing forms of art, poetry and vision ever placed to amazing music. How about "Flight of the Valkyries" by Wagner? That predates 1980s Heavy Metal music by a century! Wagner composed classical music in the mid 1850s and has been considered to be the first "evil" and quite possibly silly "satanic" composer and also influenced the Nazi Germany movement lead by Hitler and Wagner was Hitler's favorite composer. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. I would say "Stroke" it but Billy Squier would get thrown in there with a heavy metal 1980s put down from all the goody goody doers that were against heavy metal in the 1980s.

This is half of the concert and a bad copy. The full clear tape is 1000x better.

Well this is definitely NOT LIP SYNCED!!! How do I know, other than they really were that good that people always tried to claim that, but when you know the lyrics and the way it was done on their albums and then it's a bit different, you just know they're not faking it. But It took me less than a minute to figure out they definitely aren't here either. I'm surprised nobody caught it because at about 45 secs. in, the lyrics are all messed up and Jack even included lyrics that I've never heard in this song. 😂 But like a true pro, he didn't even flinch! If I didn't know the lyrics, I wouldn't have known. So, your lip syncing idea is debunked, lol. Thanks for posting!

now dee sniders the democrat...😂

That lady sounds totally reasonable and responsible, the dudes sound like D bags. Did the PMRC get a bad rap?

Ha! The host lights right up 🚬

Anyone knowingly supporting the PMRC was a traitor to free speech looking for personal gains

I don't care about metal but what about Crazy Eddie? What happened, why did it happen and where is he today?

Life was in a Tornado back in this time...came out of it kickin'...luckily.

As a child I hated the parental advisory stuff as an adult and parent I appreciate it.

All the PMRC, also known as "the four Karen's of the apocalypse,"did was help with record sales and made artists write lyrics that made sure they would get that sticker on their album. Thanks PMRC you guys rule!

but but why doesn't she mention Hip Hip & thug rap?

Morton Downey Jrs show was broadcast nationally but it always looked like it was produced in a cable access studio. It looks as low budget as you can get.

Uploader, thanks for the upload. I watched MD back in the days a little bit. I remember buying a Repulsion album after watching them on the show... 🔥🎸🔥

SAW TWISTED SISTER TWICE IN 1984 & MOTLEY CRUE TWICE IN 1987 & TALKED WITH JAY JAY FRENCH ON INSTAGRAM A FEW TIMES. JUST THE COST OF THE STICKER & PRINTING INCREASED THE PRICE OF A CASSETTE TAPE DRAMATICALLY. TIPPER GORE ABSOLUTELY MADE MONEY FROM THE TAX PAYERS TAX FREE HERSELF & WAS BACKED BY GOVERNMENT THAT COST TAXPAYERS EVEN MORE MONEY TO SKIM THE SCAM. IN TURN IT MADE BANDS EVEN MORE POPULAR. DEMOCRATS HAVE LIED & GOTTEN THEIR WAY FAR TOO LONG. THE O'BIDEN/ CLINTON ERA IS OVER. GREAT VIDEO WITH OLD SCHOOL COMMERCIALS FROM EARLY 1988. THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD. MUCH LOVE & PEACE.

This FKG Guy.

I watched this live on the real tube when I was 6 with my dad.. I remember the act on before them was veve lacher I think, played piano and sang hot voodoo. Tuna has been my favorite band since I remember

Long live Morton Downey Jr 😂😊🎉🎉🎉🎉

I see her point about how the media changed and the music business. A lot of dark music. My stepmother believed I was into devil worshiping. Because I listen to Alice Cooper. Lol. It's just music. I'm not going around thinking that song is going to make me go bonkers. Alice Cooper has some great music that makes you think. Ever show I've been to the man gives his all everybody in the band is having fun.

lip sync??

Male testosterone at its highest here.

Mike love just spoils everything

I don't know about y'all...but I'm excited about the circus coming to town.

I bought my music by the name and album cover art. I love Metal. I always will. Wait what were we talking about .

I miss the days when the biggest threat to America was music

"I think some of it does" She has no clue she doesnt even listen to the music.

GWAR'S first album wasnt even out yet

Fab T Birds are, and have always been awesome

Ahhhhh yesssss I love KAT she can shred!!!!!

She's gonna totally "plotz" when she hears cannibal corpse read those lyrics 😊

Pauly Shore's evil twin brother is very articulate compared to his rock and roll brother😂

Just look at what they did with RAP influenced kids right into prison

Isn't it such a "different world" between now and then!?! Those gals, would be absolutely overwhelmed in this day and age if they were all of a sudden transported to now..... side note: 2 cents to mail a letter!! (52:45)

What was the word that was edited out? At 17:15

seeing this now as an adult, she’s not wrong. she’s not totally right either, but my point is, she’s not the moron I remember her as at the age of 17. 😂😂😂. as if I wasn’t a moron then😅😅😅

At the end of the video Morton Downey reads the label of a pack of cigarettes and says "Labels suck" before blowing a big puff of smoke after taking a drag off his cigarette. Ironic, since he later blamed tobacco companies for lying to consumers about cigarettes after having a lung removed and before dying at 68 of lung cancer.

I see her point . This is so long ago but look at our children now compared to rocking to heavy medal.
