  • This historic, if raw, very early videos were shot at CBGB and capture the Plasmatics. During these earliest of shows the band was a 3 piece, before the power hitter Wes Beech was added to the lineup.
    Wendy’s proclivity for provocative fashion is already evident here where she wears completely clear see-through vinyl pants and on top the first Plasmatics T shirt ever printed. The first show was recorded live along with the whole set and then mixed down and released as part of the first ever Plasmatics recording “Butcher Baby” released on Vice Squad Records, a label Plasmatics creator Rod Swenson founded to give the band an early record release because a lot of out of town venues where he wanted to book the group wanted a group to have a record.

    I just came across my 1981 ticket stub that Wendy signed... RIP! She was a monster on stage, and a sweetheart in person :)

      I’m right there with ya for any and all video from 78 to 81 or 82, whenever the Beyond The Valley Of 1984 tour finished, although I find myself liking stuff from the record after, Metal Priestess I think it might be.

    CBGB was a sick filthy club. I had so much fun there. The rest room was a sight to see.. Ugh.
    Good times.. My band played there once.. I think i barfed on my bass amp ... Dont remember much from those days..

    ~~ back in the mid-90's - when Wendy was living & working near UCONN in Storrs Conn. - one place she worked for a while was a health food store in Manchester Conn. I did not know this until after I had seen her there. At the time - I did not fully recognize her - but I knew there was something about this somewhat morose-looking women working the aisles of the store where I bought supplements & teas. I think she was trying to remain as inconspicuous as possible in the store - but for a moment we did look at each other - and I could only think to myself; “where have I seen you before ?” I wish I had said hello - or something kind to her. I still share many of her beliefs about this world.

      I only saw her sing on tv, and also went to that store in Manchester, CT, a few times. I never knew that woman there was her.
      There's an interesting article about her in The Hartford Courant, that mentions her life after performing.
      RIP.

    How can you promote this as being a full show? There is 1 song from 1978 and 1 song from 1979. Both videos have always been available. I saw the Plasmatics for the first time at the Palladium in NYC in 1979. I never saw them at CBGBs and was looking forward to seeing a full show, not just 1 song. Very disappointing.

    I still have my piece of wooden 2 x4 " - broken off the stage when she drove the white Cadillac into the water on the Pier in Sept. 1980 . I was a huge fan but somehow - things changed when she got the mohawk. (And later when she went 'metal") I saw many live PLASMATIC shows but one thing was really annoying: back in the 1980s - if you saw a band in a smallish club - the band did not go on until 1 AM !!! I had her tie from when she wore the catholic girl school uniform but I lost it. I was at the Bond's show, and they played at a CRAPPY small club here on Long Island called 2001 in Copaigue .Also MALIBU on Lido Beach . Do any locals remember that place ? News of Wendy's death was .. very quiet . Was it pre-internet ? Or on the cusp ? Lastly ; funny that the crowd at CBGBs looked ....so normal !

      Don't be a hater. There's a time and place for everyone in this world. Your trash is someone else's treasure. And vice versa.
