This is real "live". Some pop stars should learn how to do it.

They ROCKED this one live during the actual rebroadcast 1990 show last week. Difficult arrangement...but better than Love Shack IMHO

Do you have the televised performance? I don't know why, but this performance stuck in my head for so many years...

Oh, isn't it Zachary Alford?

robin danar

actually, that's Zach Alford on drums. Charley worked with us a bunch back then sitting in on guitar. amazing to see this after all these years.

there's gold in them that youtube archives ! ! ! this is a really rocking version of Channel Z, think the B-52s were just a kitschy surf rock band, check out the groove after 4:17 that's sick Keith

stretchmonster2

@jnadle1 Yeah, that was him.

Jason Nadle

Who was on drums? That looked a lot like Charley Drayton. I could be wrong.

@byamrcn Thanks, ..sorry, but I don't have that version, if there even is one.

This is an extraordinary piece of video--where the heck did you get it? The broadcast performance of this, I thought it was and still is the best #2 song in the history of SNL. Blew me away. Amazing how crude the camerawork is here, knowing how the live version was shot so expertly just a few hours later. Amazed that this footage even exists. (Do you have the full run on all five cameras? Would love to see it all merged like the "Shiny Happy People" posting.) Thank you VERY much for posting it.
