"Nightmarishly beautiful" IMMEDIATELY made me think of

It Was A Pleasure Then

I love the version of the song that John sings to conclude the Tokyo 'Drella performance in 1990. What an unexpected pleasure it was to hear him sing the song, particularly since Lou couldn't (or wouldn't) sing anymore by that point.

Then, of course, there's Moe's guest appearance with Lou and John on the 12/03/89 'Drella show, where SHE sings the song (also a wonderful performance).

Not a VU song, but not a bad song either.

I love After Hours and Candy Says.

Oh dear... Dr Bob is right, I thought it was a typo. As I am, among other things, a text copyeditor, I automatically "corrected" it

Its ok Arjan, just because you don't have an encyclopaedic knowledge of between songs banter from obscure 70's Swedish Patti Smith bootlegs doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person...

It does. I lie awake screaming in hot summer nights because of my lack of knowledge of Swedish P?tti Sm?th bootlegs.
