Quiet Riot - Cum On Feel The Noize (Live) - Awesome clip of Quiet Riot performing "Cum On Feel The Noize" at the US Festival in 1983. I did a quick head count and there appears to be, oh... about 375,000 people -- a single-day record -- in attendance for this show! Lead singer Kevin DuBrow, who has long been one of my favorite front-men (may he rest in peace), could probably scream loud enough for all those people to hear... even without the microphone! Check it out!
RANDOM THOUGHTS... I love when, during the guitar solo, DuBrow puts guitarist Carlos Cavazo up on his shoulders while Cavazo's fingers fly around the fretboard. When I saw Quiet Riot play live in the summer of 2001 -- on the Glam Slam Metal Jam tour, along with Poison, Warrant, and Enuff Z'Nuff. Talk about a kick-ass lineup! Well, Enuff was just alright, but the other three kicked ass! -- they actually did the same routine, and No I am not complaining. It was as awesome to see in 2001 as it must have been in 1983. Rock shows are supposed to be entertaining, and stuff like that is great! Today's bands should take note. And did I mention that Cavazo played the solo almost note-perfect? That's awesome! Rock and roll! ... In case you're scoring at home, yes, that is indeed Rudy Sarzo (everybody's favorite four-string fiend) on the bass guitar. ... This song is a cover of an old Slade tune, and Quiet Riot was reluctant to record it. Bands like to play their own stuff, not cover someone else's. But Quiet Riot actually covered a second Slade tune called "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" for their 1984 album, Condition Critical. Hey, settle down. These guys are rockers, not spelling bee contestants!
