1984 footage

I’ve been watching some documentaries on Front 242 and Luc Van Acker, and came across a couple with some live/behind the scenes footage from the 1984 Ministry tour, in which Front 242 were the openers. The clips are brief, but hopefully the full videos surface someday.

Also, came across Luc performing an early version of “Fish in Cold Water”. Is there a different version out there? I really like it, a bit more funkier than the Revco version.

Yeah, I saw those 84 clips. That came out before a couple later 1984 songs came out on youtube. Not the same show, so hopefully we’ll eventually get more.

I haven’t heard a studio version of Fish In Cold Water. There could easily be one. Luc has a ton of old songs that he finished in the late 80s but never released. They’ll probably never see official release, sadly.

I hope so too. I’m pretty sure all of the 1984 footage is from the same source, hopefully some of it makes it into the Wax Trax monumentary.

I would love to hear some of Luc’s unreleased stuff. If anyone has any, send me a PM. [:)]

Still waiting for the rest of the 1984 Boston show at The Channel to be posted on YouTube. Would like to see the rest of the Ministry performance plus the Front 242 opener.
