Love this! And according to the description under the video, from 1988 or 1989...during or after "Introspective", during or before "Results" and most certainly before the release of Behaviour (although I'm sure they had already been song writing it). Good historical footage. Chris never is seen dancing in public except in a forced concert performance.

Are we sure it's him?
The footage is pretty grainy.

Maybe it's because I'm not really used to seeing Chris' face but I am skeptical.
Did they say he was in this video or something?

In the blue cap and ripped jeans, just after "Phil Daniels" has a swig from his can of lager?

Not convinced its Chris

it looks exactly like him and he was attending many such outdoor raves at the time - chances are high that it's him

I worked with a girl in London who used to go to raves with Chris. She saw me with one of their tshirts one day and said 'oh, you like the Pet Shop Boys? I was at Chris's flat in Soho yesterday.' I totally didn't believe her at first. But she had no reason to lie. I didn't know he went to raves until she told me. Everything she said was pretty much confirmed later on.

I'm 99 percent sure it is him. Got it from acid casuals facebook page. They use chris in his green chevignon gear as their profile pic.

"He" also makes an appearance at 04.54. Although it looks like Chris, this further clip shows it isn't him, although there is a resemblance..

He totally looks like him to me. I remember Neil said in an interview that Chris went to raves. Anyway, I don't think we will ever have a reliable confirmation. Maybe someone should ask Pete? And maybe someone should edit the Vocal video adding this doppelganger (doppeltanzer?) Chris.
