Every so now and then a band will perform if their lives depend on it. Let's show those performances where the band is on fire, almost litteraly.

First up Focus who played their hit "Hocus Pocus" on an 1973 TV performance. The guitarist' fingers are a blur and the Keyboardist looks like he's about to go mental. By far the most intense live version of this song.


Second here's Peter Gabriel during his first solo tour performing the Genesis classic "The Lamb lies down on Broadway" Gabriel admitted that he loved the intensity of a Punk rock concert and the way an Artist like Bruce Springsteen stood on stage, in contrast: Gabriel himself was known for his poetry-laden Shakespearian performances with the lavish costumes. In this performance however he seemingly wanted to get away from that.
