@15:47, Ronnie and the wreckage of the Faces. If they're playing to a backing track, it's one they created themselves:

The stage looks like it's been pelted with bags of cocaine and rhinestones.

I would have been at that show...but I was between jobs and could not get the bus fare in time...you see, I was only 8 at the time ;D ;D ;D

But seriously, that vid is pretty rad...The opening with the Brothers Gibb is totally smokin'...though they were already established and popular, what was to come in less than 2 years, no one would have predicted...
