Francis Dunnery's It Bites @kkssteelmill-livemusic8561 Once around the world 20/1/23 Francis Dunnery Paul Brown Luke Machin Bjorn Fryklund Peter Jones Quint Starkie
Magnificent, good old Frank. Saw It Bites at the Hammersmith Odeon with my best friend Mike Wedgwood (of Curved Air, Caravan, etc). We were left speechless: so was everyone. Frankie still using his “really cheap” Squire Strat: fu%% me, only he can make it sound like that. The wonderful Peter Jones on keys, who has no sight at all - what a player he is! 😍😍
Ihat1st 'The Tube's they grabbed my attention. High quality songs, played well. Shame they didn't get that br 4:25 break they deserved. Dave Newport S.Wales
It took me 30 odd years to see Francis Dunnery. Every song, I was close to tears 😢...... it was worth the wait !!!... and He's back in January 2024, same venue. I will be there !!!... awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Nice One Francis ... We met thirty years in ago in Frankfurt, backstage at the Festhalle Frankfurt .. after your gig with RP (0pening for L.Kravitz) ... I remember you saying, you weren't really into LZ (after you played a great gig and played some impressive Jimmy Page stuff ) ... I think you said sth like, you heard many LZ songs for the first time on that tour and you learned your stuff by listening once or twice to the records ... that shocked me 😄, ... still remember that today ...
Terrific they're doing this live - great version. Like a mellower Steve Hackett Band dare I say but with a less polished late 70's/ early 80's feel - which is a very good thing in my book of Prog.
It Bites' answer to "Supper's Ready". The band deserved so much more success, but were let down by Virgin Records who didn't know how to market them. This video brought a lump to my throat - thanks for uploading! Can't wait for the new album - they go into the studio in December I believe.
no idea why there are now two guitarists!!! and two on keys !!! frank played all this stuff live on his own no problem. just goes to show what a great act It bites were.

Saw him at the Bush Hall a few years back. Truly one of the best gigs I ever attended.
Thank you so much for uploading! I couldn't make the gigs but this was a great second best, really appreciate it.

Last saw that live in 89 in Cambridge. It's been a long 35 year wait Francis.
One of the best ever
Really underrated
So good and the guitar playing awesome. Makes it talk on every track
One of the best
I was at this gig and it was an amazing night. This song as the encore was the icing on the cake. Magical.
Good but sounds like one thing missing Mr John beck the guy was a pure talent we miss you john
À marvelous musician and a amazing group!
IT BITES split in 1990, but still people come, to hear them, especially with their original, unique singer Francis Dunnery.
Pure genius......
Think the New Drummer Coped With That Very Well
Cheers Francis 👌
The dude on second guitar looks like Francis did in the early 90's!
IT BITES avec Francis DUNNERY c'est juste le meilleur groupe PROG des 80's. Merci pour votre musique.
Unbelievable gig
Whar a shame....Francis Dunnery and It Bites deserved a carrer and history like Genesis, YES, Gabriel, Rush...so incridible talent
This is awesome. Has a Genesis meets Yes feel.
Terrific they're doing this live - great version. Like a mellower Steve Hackett Band dare I say but with a less polished late 70's/ early 80's feel - which is a very good thing in my book of Prog.
Saw you twice in Newport, S. Wales.
The band were cooking on Gas those nights. Great gigs, happier times

That crowd singing ❤️what a night
Damn. I had a ticket but I couldn't get to go.
No,but I did! Thank you for arranging the ticket.😁
The last time I saw that performed live Frank had long hair! 😂
Those passages near the end are insanely tricky and heavy duty..lobe those it bitz
Still got the vocal chops too.
Proper fans

Yeh get rid
Wearing his original leather jacket !
The young bloke's stolen Frank's hair.
Genesis. Somewhat. But it's cool !
you hear collins or gabriel?
Effortless, note-perfect, sausage fingered virtuosity. Ace
Ma è il Francis che ha suonato con Robert Plant...come è invecchiato non lo riconoscevo. Ma fa buona musica!
He wears his guitar FAR too high!
Francis can wear his guitar as high as he likes.
Love how he has it skyhigh
