Franklin, Kyle, and Joey performing live on cable TV show produced in Riverside and shown throughout SoCal in summer - fall of 1992. This is a couple years after "A Baby A Blanket..." and just before the release of their singles comp "Power Trips Down Lovers Lane". Vintage NPB!
SETLIST:
Unscheduled Train
Sorely Tempted
Smothered
Undeserving
Swivel ChairWe captured this all in one take (probably obvious), shooting two bands per day as well as a 10 minute interview segment. Just posting the music portion. The interview needs some editing to make it tolerable.
Enjoy!
The interview segment is not visible on the YouTube channel at this time. Unknown if it was ever uploaded or has survived.
As you can see, Franklin, Joey, and Kyle squeezed 5 whole songs into this 14-minute segment. You can listen to all of that here, and like the other videos, there are animated .gifs you can watch, which are a little less resource-intensive for my hosting.
First, there's a quick intro:
|
01. Video Intro

The first song of the set is Unscheduled Train.

| Onscreen text. Franklin playing. Joey's going up & down the neck. | GIF |
| The camera has Joey blocking Kyle: look for his white tee in back. | GIF |
| "You've got me checking the schedule..." | GIF |
| The zoom-out from Kyle here is fun. Check out Franklin's shorts! | GIF |
| The camera angle gets weirder. They were having a great time here. | GIF |
| Rhythm section in sync - Joey and Kyle keep the circuit connected. | GIF |
| Another zoom-out from Kyle while Franklin plays slow & even. | GIF |
| "There's a reason we treat you like you're young..." | GIF |
| The camera often finds Joey doing this big leaning-rocking motion... | GIF |
| ...so watch for Kyle to pop into view whenever Joey goes backard. | GIF |
| Finally a shot of Kyle in focus back there on drums. Look at him go! | GIF |
| "But there's no sign of you, except you..." | GIF |
| Franklin and Joey rocking out (it's that camera angle again) | GIF |
| Joey counts out the "un... SCHE-DULED" before "train!" kicks in. | GIF |
The song itself stops at 3:14. Listen to Kyle start to count it off, before Joey's quiet "wait--" and then Kyle's "Joey's changin'!"

| Franklin laughs & announces "Sorely Tempted" while Joey gears up. | GIF |

| "I hear ya, Joey!" says Kyle, grinning from the drumkit. | GIF |
| This angle catches everyone at once - watch Kyle and Joey lock in. | GIF |
| "Am I doing it right?" sings Franklin on the chorus. | GIF |
| "Am I doing it right?" Joey asks, making eyes at the camera. | GIF |
| "I can't stand it any longer, I'm not gettin' any younger..." | GIF |
| Joey makes a jaunty approach to the mic here. Kyle holds it down. | GIF |
| "I can barely face my spite. I can barely face my spi-i-i-i-i-ite..." | GIF |
After this fade-out, the host re-introduces the band.

| This one finds the band already going. Joey orients himself. | GIF |
| "Takin' power trips down lover's lane, OOHH!" Franklin delivers. | GIF |
| They have some lighting issues after the break, but this shot is clear. | GIF |
| Joey and Kyle with some back-and-forth here in their physicality. | GIF |
| Smothered? Franklin with the punchline: "...in KISSES! KISSES!" | GIF |
| Kyle Brodie, everybody. | GIF |
Then "Undeserving":

| Kyle sits back down ready to rock. | GIF |
| Joey's rock & roll hair gets some action. Kyle is a blur back there. | GIF |
| "Until it can fill your lava lamp---" and then the synced-up lean. | GIF |
| "...that they only love you because..." | GIF |
| Rocking out angle #1 | GIF |
| Rocking out angle #2 | GIF |
| "Youuuuuuuuu faaaaaaaaaaaaaall..." | GIF |
| "IIIIIIIIIIIIIII faaaaaaaaaaaaaaall..." | GIF |

| Joey waves bye. | GIF |
| They find this camera angle a little late, but it's perfect. | GIF |
| Get eyes on Kyle here. Or just wait for the next one. | GIF |
| Kyle's back there working up a sweat! | GIF |
| "Wash down your Twinkie with some Cutty Sark.." | GIF |
| The elbow poking into the shot here at left is perfect. | GIF |
| "...Swivelchair!" | GIF |
| "Declare... chapter eleven!" | GIF |
| "Chapter eleven!" | GIF |
| "SPIN OUT!" | GIF |
| "I... wanna play with your office supplies." Quick -- watch Kyle! | GIF |
| Kyle finishes light. Joey hangs loose. Where's Franklin? Fade out... | GIF |
