From January 1983 to August 1986, The Nervous Gender lineup consisted of original members Velasquez and Stapleton and Wall of Voodoo members Marc Morland (guitar), Bruce Morland (Bass), Chas Grey (synthesizers & Keyboards) and Ned (Drums). This line up was often referred to as the "Wall of Gender".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------From the very start the guys from Wall of Voodoo were extremely supportive of what Nervous Gender was trying to accomplish. To give us broader visibility, they booked us to open for them at venues which were normally off limits to punk and industrial bands. At one point Bruce Moreland found out that we were about to disband. He came over to our apartment and told us that he wanted to be our new bass player and that Ned wanted to drum for us; then came Marc and Chaz with a lineup like that we'd have been crazy to quit. At a show at Variety Arts, Joe joined us on stage playing bongos and whatever else he could hit. This lineup became the guitar incarnation of NG and we performed regularly for a number of years, whenever WOV were not touring.
Sometimes nicknamed Wall of Gender,
this incarnation featured Bruce Moreland
of Wall of Voodoo (performing at Phenomenon
at Fiesta House, Los Angeles, 1983).
