I saw it in 1976 on Channel 11, PBS in Chicago. It was (breifly) on Sundays, after Masterpiece Theatre, but before Monty Python and the Prisoner. This was the only moment in my life when the entire family could agree on a full evening of TV. Come to think of it, it was about the last time I watched a whole evening of TV.

Come to think of it, Ralph Kramden is more entertaining.

But, apart from them, they had a band (!) consisting of a drummer, a percussionist, a guitarist, a bassist and a violinist. They were all dressed as Wall St. executives: dark grey suits. BE actually SANG! (he even referred to himself as Frank Sinatra, while introducing the band members), and they played for around 100 minutes: 1 - Warnography (new, funky, instrumental) 2 - Intenser (from Drawn from Life) 3 - Like Pictures, Part #2 (from Drawn from Life) 4 - Can't Sing (new, slow, song) 5 - Untitled new song #1 (new, slow, song) 6 - Untitled new instrumental (new, slow) 7 - No one receiving (from Before and After Science) 8 - Two voices (from Drawn from Life) 9 - Persis (from Drawn from Life) 10 - Untitled new song #2 (new, slow, song) 11 - Untitled new song #3 (new, fast, song) Encore: 12 - Warnography (new, funky, instrumental) Brian had a portuguese phrase book from which he read some (random) phrases in between the songs. I particularly enjoyed the live version of Like Pictures and Persis (much better than in the studio versions: the band added a lot to the chaotic climax of Persis) and all new songs; he said that apart from the other six people onstage, we were the first people to hear these songs. A great concert." Wow, who would have ever thought that he would have performed "No One Receiving". Almost as rare as the Roxy re-union!
