I'm sorry they didn't quite make it as big as they deserved. Krokus were my second group I ever saw live in the summer of '83; with Blackfoot opening up. This is EXACTLY how they looked & sounded that hot August night when we saw them in concert. Great times! Damn I miss the 80s!
this is the 1st song I heard from Krokus back in the mid 1980's. I became a fan and eventually bought every cassette they released in the states, along with a few imports. Now own the discs. Wish they would tour again here
To this day, "One Vice at a Time" is my favourite Krokus album. Fact: this was supposed to be the original title, and they were going to put a cannon on the album cover. Guess who had an album come out that year with a cannon on the cover. They had a fit, and Krokus had to make some last minute changes.
Switzerland had only this band that can went on the road in the 80s and along side with Loudness from Japan.Love to see this line up....Marc Storace/vocals...Steve Pace/Drums...Mark Kohler/bass..Fernando Von Arb/lead guitar...the last one on rhythm guitar Mandy Meyer later he join Asia for album Astra ...(1985)..Then and now(1990)...This live was a nice time best moment and good memories for Heavy Metal year in 1983 live at Dortmund ,bands like Ozzy Osbourne...Judas Priest...Scorpions ...Iron Maiden...Def Leppard...Michael Schenker Group...Krokus...were made history for legendary.Excuse for bad in English ...from Thailand I'm 61 years old still rock.
Seen these guys on the Eat the Rich tour in 1983.! I forgot who the headliner was but they blow the roof off the house that night.! They defiantly made a statement and I've been a huge fan ever since
I used to go see a local band here the middle of Pennsylvania just bc they played this song. Total effing dive bar but so much fun. Probably at least 15 yrs ago. The band was called Scream
He was asked to audition for AC/DC immediately after Bon died and he turned them down. He wanted to stay with Krokus and his mates in the band. This is well documented if you care to research it?
Just to set the record straight, The band actually asked Marc Storace of HM band Krokus to audition for them after Bon Scott's death. It was always said that Storace sounded like Bon Scott and this is really evident on this Krokus song 'Long Stick Goes Boom, which many people have mistaken for AC/DC. However, Krokus where an up and coming band and had just released the album Metal Rendezvous and so Storace turned the audition down. In a more recent interview Storace said he was happy with his life, his wife and family, and various business ventures, and doesn't regret his decision
George Tempest Because he's Swiss. The boys in AC DC are Scotsmen. Different culture. Great respect all around but Brian Johnson is a Scotsman as well and they get along, drink at the pub together.
even with no vocal talent someone like me could have a few and in my head I sounded exactly like him.....but then I could do the guitar part too,bang my head a bit raise my fist to the screaming audience in my room....
Def Lep was exploding everywhere (Richmond 1983)..Krokus blew them off the stage repeatedly, rumor swirled that the Leppard camp wasn't happy and resulted in Krokus 'leaving' the tour shortly after..
You can understand why i thought this was ac/dc 1. The singer sounds awfully similar to brain johnson and 2. The guitar riffs sound damn near identical to ac/dc's from those about to rock "we salute you"
Krokus were influenced by AC/DC. It's on record as such. Why would you think AC/DC were the clone? Krokus was formed in 74, but didn't change their sound to anything resembling AC/DC until Storace came onboard. This song also takes the main riff from Love Hungry Man.
Привет всем! Всё хорошо, и замечательно: это очень похоже на 'AC/DC' до 80-го. Но нет, у 'Крокус' ТОЙ ИЗЮМИНКИ, что была у 'ДИ/СИ' (сорри, за арфограф) со СКОТТОМ ( мы помним тебя)..
I used to listen to this album very loud in my car. I still have the tape.😉
Marc Storace - what an ass kicking voice!
One of their last two albums Marc sounds so much like Bon it is scary. My favorite 80s band that none of my friends had heard of.
suzy mcalister ... I was just thinking that same thing... this could easily be old AC/DC
George Griffith ... probably a decision..because it’s really really similar... even the guitar sounds like. AC/DC.
Dude I know that's Should have replaced Bond
@George Griffith When Bon died the band asked Marc to replace him. He turned them down because he had this Krokus thing going on.
@George Griffith wow you guys must have had an awesome singer to pull off KroKus! Rock On brother
I'm sorry they didn't quite make it as big as they deserved. Krokus were my second group I ever saw live in the summer of '83; with Blackfoot opening up. This is EXACTLY how they looked & sounded that hot August night when we saw them in concert. Great times! Damn I miss the 80s!
Same here Salvador!! La Villarreal Convention Center, McAllen, TX! My second concert ever after seeing Journey the month before in Austin.
this is VROCK! 😎
Imagine for a second if Malcom & Angus had gotten him for lead singer after Bon Scott passed.
I soo want my 80's back ....just one more time...
Damn, this brings back good memories!!
One Vice at a time, Headhunter, Blitz are three awesome albums in a row. Playing the outlaw one of my fav
80´s Metal was high energy - when I listen to One Vice the energy comes back!
one of my favorite bands of the early eighties and still to this day
They were a great band, even live, and if they played like so many eighties-bands now. KROKUS: a statement with few comparisons.
I remember when this song came out.I thought it was a new AC/DC release.
Such a badass intro! Classic
this is the 1st song I heard from Krokus back in the mid 1980's. I became a fan and eventually bought every cassette they released in the states, along with a few imports. Now own the discs. Wish they would tour again here
80s rockers were so fine, and the music, oh the music🤘🎶🎸❤
why am I just now finding this band? damn local radio!
Tell me about it! Fuck cookie cutter radio!
I discovered this on local radio. Vrock.
KSJO in San Jose,CA They were kicking ASS in the 80'S
To this day, "One Vice at a Time" is my favourite Krokus album. Fact: this was supposed to be the original title, and they were going to put a cannon on the album cover.

😃👍
What a great fkin band!! Saw them at the cape cod colliseum in Massachusetts they backed up Def Leppard
🔥🔥🔥🔥a LUSTFUL AND HOT SONG❤❤❤❤PASSIONATE!
The one and only 🇨🇭🤟
At this juncture, my face has officially been melted by these dudes.
Marc Storace had went with ac/dc when they asked he would be a super star but he did not want to leave his band mates a stand up guy
so underrated!
To my brother Marc Cooke . I Love ya. Rest in Heaven.
"To be with you, I'd risk a fuckin' fight!"
Bon Scott 2.0
Great Song
Krokus Rocks amazing fun loving hard working guys that I got to see on stage \\mm//
Jim Florentine's "Metal Midgets" show on Sirius Ozzy's Boneyard brought me here. What a fucking song! I never knew about this one! Kickass.
You just gotta luv it!
Bon Scott lives
Nach ac dc das beste was ich bis jetzt gehört habe
Seen these guys on the Eat the Rich tour in 1983.! I forgot who the headliner was but they blow the roof off the house that night.! They defiantly made a statement and I've been a huge fan ever since
Saw them with Helix and W.A.S.P. opening.
Over here in the states summer of 83 they opened for Def Leppard. On some dates it was Gary Moore, Krokus & Def Leppard.
@@edmiley729 yeah that's right.! It was Def Leppard... Thanks for jogging my memory lol it was the pyromania tour that year as well
@@bonez6349 ..never saw Def,but just about everyone else at that time...great years for Metal shows..Saxon and Accept was one of the best tours.
@@billriddle9215 agreed.! Man I still listen and jam to these bands...
What a voice!!!
Great live - even better than the recorded version off GTA Vice City Stories V-Rock
Perfect gig. Fantastic!
VINTAGE!!
I used to go see a local band here the middle of Pennsylvania just bc they played this song. Total effing dive bar but so much fun. Probably at least 15 yrs ago. The band was called Scream
Harder than swiss francs, coming up in Zurich at March 4. 2017 Yessss!
Bon's bro!😉
La mejor cancion de krokus que no pudo componer ac/dc
One of my favorite quotes is "One Vice at a Time".
If Brian Johnson craps put again, acdc should hire this guy. He can do all the bon Scott tracks.
A suitable replacement for sure...Long Live Bon!...
He was asked to audition for AC/DC immediately after Bon died and he turned them down. He wanted to stay with Krokus and his mates in the band. This is well documented if you care to research it?
@Kayla- Rey22 good to know.
My favorite Long Stick version by far.
seen Krokus back in the mid 80s I think it was
Never really thought about why I loved Krokus until I considered the AC/DC comparisons.
I love this band
The Swiss best quality product is a trademark at any filed of industry. Hard and heavy is no exception to this rule
that was my time souds like bon scot metal vet
That's what I'm talking about !
Time to bring the real ROCK & MeTaL back !😁🤟
Just to set the record straight, The band actually asked Marc Storace of HM band Krokus to audition for them after Bon Scott's death.

Aaah, '83 - I was still in short pants. Fast forward to 2022 and I'm *still* wearing shorts ;}
I never understood why he wasn't asked to join ACDC after Bon Scott died... The perfect voice for that type or raw rock!
George Tempest Because he's Swiss. The boys in AC DC are Scotsmen. Different culture. Great respect all around but Brian Johnson is a Scotsman as well and they get along, drink at the pub together.
He was. He turned it down because Korkus was starting to get big and he wanted to focus on Krokus.
Bad move on his part. Nobody knows who this band is.
Very simple...they did not want another Bon voice! His voice was irreplaceable!
He was the first guy they asked to replace Bon, he turned them down to stay with his own band Krokus
Great Swiss 80s band close to ACDC
Jan Keerer AC/DC should have taken Marc StorAce instead of axl rose
They also sound like Accept
LOVE 'EM! \m/
Boom!
Fuck Yeah!!!!
even with no vocal talent someone like me could have a few and in my head I sounded exactly like him.....but then I could do the guitar part too,bang my head a bit raise my fist to the screaming audience in my room....
He should have filled in for Brian instead of Axl Rose
Фернандо 'Фон 'Арб!!!!! ⚡
fucking song!
Def Lep was exploding everywhere (Richmond 1983)..Krokus blew them off the stage repeatedly, rumor swirled that the Leppard camp wasn't happy and resulted in Krokus 'leaving' the tour shortly after..
I can imagine Krokus being louder than Def Leppard would have been
🤘😈🤘
fucking best
не справедливо подзабытые супер группа
You can understand why i thought this was ac/dc 1. The singer sounds awfully similar to brain johnson and 2. The guitar riffs sound damn near identical to ac/dc's from those about to rock "we salute you"
just can't beat them names >>> fernando von arb and chris von rohr
Bang your head on a quarter note
Along with the rest of us \\mm//
Rockers of the world \\mm//
A Heavy Metal Home \\mm//
Forever Metal in Peace \\mm//

Bohn Scott has a twin brother &Angus didn't know 😮
von Arb !!!!! 💪👊👊💪💖
Yot Bon Scot Rencarnated?
if i ran into someone that is hearing it for the first time . i would tell them its from an early AC DC album . lol
ACDC indeed.....
they started 1974 so there not a clone listen to marc storace inteview he has similar voice but not a clone maybe u could say acdc are krokus clones
Krokus were influenced by AC/DC. It's on record as such. Why would you think AC/DC were the clone? Krokus was formed in 74, but didn't change their sound to anything resembling AC/DC until Storace came onboard. This song also takes the main riff from Love Hungry Man.
Jasper Edwards you’re an idiot

Dave Starsky
Carl brought me here
Larry Miller Hair System for Men
Hey this ain’t AC/DC
Krokus > AC/DC (Brian Johnson era) fight me.
Accept breaking the law
НЕИМОВЕРНО!!
Похож, но академичен.
Bon Scott nor Brian Johnson could deliver vocals like this get real people
Steve Watts stop embarrassing yourself
Проигрывает Бону Скотту в в обертоне, и локаничности.
Brian Johnson was terrible live. This band brings it right in ur face live kick ass band
You’re an idiot, Steve
Hope thats a joke
Brian johnson is great
