On February 24, 1990 Was (Not Was) served as the ‘house band’ for a Tribute to Roy Orbison held at the Universal Ampitheater in Los Angeles. They backed up most of the artists who appeared that night. They performed one song solo, a cover of Orbison’s “It’s Over,” with Sweet Pea on a very soulful lead vocal. Portions of this show were broadcast, however, the solo song was not broadcast.
**UPDATE**
Was (Not Was) did appear on the Roy Orbison Tribute, broadcast on the Showtime cable service. There was the full 90-minute show, and also an edited, hour long version. They performed “It’s Over” following John Hiatt (You Got It), and before Booker T. Jones (In The Real World). It was then from a 60-minute re-broadcast.
Thank you Roxie for the correction.
