Just after the flash pots and candles go off there's a fellow with red hair banging in the lower right by the stage. This part of the vid was used in intro of another uk metal show in the 80/90s - can't remember it's name (raw power?). Glad I've found the original vid - always thought it was wasp or something with the pyros!
Yep, even if lots of times there were pure mayhem comin' outside from the stage, as I remember in 1984..............couldn't even recognize the songs...Cronos' bass was overwhelming everything else...so...you had to work a lot on your imagination about which song they were "playing" 🙂
I remember watching this when it was aired and I was very impressed. I don't think there was anything like this at the time, nothing I had seen anyway. I liked the extreme nature of this performance as was very surprised when Cronos jumped into the audience as I had never seen this before. I can't imagine that a terrestrial TV station would show such awesome stuff at 17:30 on a Friday evening nowadays. Great Stuff.
Remember watching ECT back in 85 each week. Had some REALLY good bands on. And then these appeared. By some margin, the worst of the entire series. Thought it was garbage then - almost 40 years later - and it's STILL utter garbage :)
![Venom - Canadian Assault [Mini-LP 1985]](/img/n.gif)
I remember watching this on TV at the time, there really was nothing like this, the opening pyrotechnics are incredible
Classic lineup Venom (Cronos/Mantas/Abaddon) and classic lineup Motorhead (Lemmy/Fast Eddie/Philthy) were my favorite bands ever.
Yeah they were awesome
