1980s News: Cocteau Twins Concert in Ohio

Posted by admin in Music, streaming video on December 30, 2009

Thanks to a tweet by SomeBadIdeas (and a retweet by Colin Meloy [of the Decemberists]) I got to watch this YouTube clip of some 1985 news coverage for a Cocteau Twins appearance in Columbus, Ohio.

I’m not sure if my favorite part is the fellow with a typewriter or the concertgoer who explains “I’m a genetics major and (inexplicable nervous head bob movement) everything.” or the co-anchor at the end of the piece who appears to fake fall asleep.
