Circle Jerks- Sacramento Community Convention Center 3/29/86 Audio Xfer from Master Tape

I think I have mentioned that I have a ton of audio that I haven’t digitized yet. 4,000 cassettes, 2,000 DATs. That’s over 10,000 hours of stuff. I have some stuff digitized and on spindles- I just got around to organizing some of them and pulled a few to post today & tomorrow. Get ready for the onslaught of mediocre audio! Here is one of those old non-professional recordings from the mid 80s. It’s a legendary show, and they played forever!

Verbal Abuse- Rock on Broadway, San Francisco Ca 3/21/86 xfer from master cassette

Mediocre Monday! Today is also high stress Monday, to the point where it is getting kinda silly. Oh well.
After a week off, here is another on from Wayne Vanderkuil’s treasure trove. Great stuff, albeit a bit distorted due to the volume. Tomorrow’s post will be another Wayne tape that sounds really nice!
I love that at the end of the tape, Wayne tells friends that they should bail from this show and head over to New Method to see Attitude Adjustment play. I don’t know who else played this show, but bailing to see AA is always a good call. It sounds like Scotty may have had a couple of pre-show beverages on this one. (btw, opinion expressed in these posts may not represent mine.. and may not even represent opinions of the people who said them, 35 years later…)

Attitude Adjustment- New Method, Emeryville Ca 3/21/86 xfer from master audio cassette

This is an example of how listenable one of these old 80s recordings can be, as long as it doesn’t get too loud. This one is pretty decent! Once again, from the collection of Wayne Vanderkuil. Thanks Wayne!
The flyer shows that the show was put on by New Method, but took place at Own’s Pizza. The cassette shows that it took place at New Method. I checked with Wayne and he remembers this show happening at New Method, so that’s what I am going with.
I love the part where Andy announces that they are doing an Exodus song and the band just jumps right into it for about 2 seconds.

Camper Van Beethoven- CBGB, NYC 3/21/86 xfer 2nd gen tape audience recording Black Flag Sonic Youth

Happy Monday everyone. Before I post anything that I did not personally record to the sac music archive, I check around to see if it is already out there in similar or better quality. I got this tape back in the 80s from Craig Hilmer, I think. There were a few of us who were huge CVB fans back then and we traded tons of the band’s live tapes. I saw that this show was on archive.org and figured there was no need to post this… but the one on Archive is a board tape, which I never even knew existed! This is an audience recording.
Some industrious soul with more free time than I should matrix the 2 sources together.
