Always loved this track from Two Steps, similar vibe to Mental Beat and Tooting Bec Wreck. I think the old Hanoi material has aged remarkably well considering how young they were when they wrote and recorded the original albums, and this track still sounds great today.

Very well done.

This lineup of his band have had a damn good run.

Really hoping he does Two Steps in its entirety on the US dates...

Funny fact: this is the exact same place Hanoi played their last show with classic line-up 40 years ago, of course without Razzle.

I saw Hellacopters there some weeks ago.

So sad he isn’t coming close by when he is here in the states! Great song, thanks for posting!

I'm seeing this line up and 69 Eyes in August.

I’m going to see Michael Monroe next month in Flint Michigan every be my first time seeing him live.

Sounds good - better than the album even.

Does the drum kit really have a picture of Mike on it? I thought only Bert did that lame shit.

It's the album cover of Two Steps From the Move and these were 40 year anniversary gigs of that record.

I like a lot of the songs on his recent solo records but they all take the punk rock approach. I wish he would do a more rock & roll record like old Hanoi or Not Fakin It!

Still.. he never got fat and still sound good! I’ll catch him on the US tour!

Michael and Sami got recently their artists' pension from Finnish state, but it doesn't look like they're retiring just yet.

There were talks and plans (before the pandemia) for a Hanoi Rocks reunion gig in the Olympic Stadium Helsinki.
Drummer obviously being Gyp Casino.

After the pandemia it has been the Andy Mc Coy's condition preventing this to happen.

In the end the reunion was at Helsinki Ice Hall in 2022, I was there. I've seen Andy around bars here, he's a mess.

Still lame. At least the pictures aren't everywhere.

It s not picture of Mike

The pictures they used had both Mike and Sami. Hardly a Bert style ego trip,
