[@riveroforchids]

he cracks me up so bad his humor is absolutely brilliant he would have killed it as a comedian
anyway apple venus is one of their most gorgeous records I love it deeply

Thank you Andy!

[@fogandthehunters]

Wow! My favourite album. What a rare piece of footage. Shame there weren’t more questions about the album itself. Thanks for posting.

[@paulsmartialarts]

Andy is hilarious. He'd be a great stand up if you could get him anywhere near a stage

[@reversefulfillment9189]

Andy was always a gre at comedian.

[@beandipcartography]

[@RDizzle87]

Andy is in form here 😂

[@145inA]

Heed the Brownman!

[@StillOnFire]

Is Andy Partridge on the autism spectrum? Seems so familiar to me lol

[@franciswhitehead6998]

He does suspect himself to be, he was prescribed Valium for what was then known as "hyperactivity" (ADHD) since he was 12, so either way he is neurodivergent

[@auroman302]

Where did this happen? What city in the US?

[@Wolfcubware]

I think it was NYC

[@roadhouse1127]

@@Wolfcubware Definitely in Chicago.

[@michaelorellana9303]

WXRT is a Chicago radio station

[@gregdaniel8404]

doesnt seem to suffer stage fright any longer

[@daveykirkham4214]

that's nervous energy for you.

[@randydoak6638]

Great album, but by that point Andy's egomania had killed the band.

[@windyhillbomber]

Not egomania… Even Andy feels he’s on the Spectrum. Kudos to Colin for putting up with Andy’s nuttiness for so long. A genius either way.

[@ericbrandon447]

Don't mistake charisma for egomania
