Here’s my Fluid master from Cattle. In general, I have been holding back the shows of mine that Jim Mclain mixed as 2 camera shows, as these are redundant… But I really like this one. This was another show where they had the short P.A. so I could shoot from the better side of the stage. Filmed with the Aiwa CV80 and Sony ECM909 mic.

The first band NOT from Seattle to be signed to the Sub Pop label, The Fluid came from Denver, Colorado. Live at the Cattle Club, Sacramento, CA, this is the full set.

I know we already have multiple versions of this show on the archive- Jim’s edit of my & Jerry’s angle, my single cam version, and here is “Anonymous”‘s audio recording. This recording was uncirculated until now, and sounds better than the video soundtrack in my opinion. It should, Anonymous had better audio recording gear than me back then. Still does now.

Thanks to Daniel Hague for getting me to look through Anonymous’ stack of tapes and finding this one. I know Dan is a big fan. This doesn’t sound as good as some of Anonymous’ other recordings with this setup, but Dino Jr always played LOUD and the kennel club was never known for their acoustics.
A funny side note about this show- I was there with my video camera and I was trying to approach Jay so I could get permission to film. I tried to start a conversation, but it was so impossibly awkward and incoherent, I gave up. Damnit, I should have just whipped it out and recorded anyway.

The Boon was John Conley and Mike Yoas’ (from Desario) band in the late 80s. John & Mike have been playing in bands for almost 35 years now- their first was the hardcore punk band Concerned Children Rebel (1987), then The Boon(1988-89), Ellie (1990), and I lose track from there. Desario has been going for about 10 years now.
This was a home rehearsal, recorded with Anonymous’ D6.

This was a special show- Vomit Launch doing a headlining set in their hometown, in their prime.
Not only that, but I took my 8mm master video and brightened/denoised it so you can actually see Lindsey play guitar!
and that’s not all… thanks to Sam Habash, we have “Anonymous”‘s EXCELLENT audio courtesy of a Sony D6 & ECM909 mic, synched up to the video. Where else will you find a 75 minute VL set? Nowhere. Nowhere.

Wow, I forgot how good thing video is. This is the night after the Cattle Club show. We had not planned to go to Chico the next night, but the Sac show was so good that Mark Martin convinced us to go. The most vivid memory of this show was when me and Lawrence Crane (from Vomit Launch and Tape Op Magazine) were nerding out about music and bands. We got so obscure with our love for SF “early alternative” bands like Donner Party that Mark Arm (who was sitting in between us” threw up his hands and walked away! Ha ha, classic. Juanita’s (the burrito place connected to the venue) used to get kegs of special Sierra Nevada beers before the whole microbrew thing was a big deal. We had some special ale that tasted like aspirin and TRASHED us. Video sounds great and looks ok. Happy with it, 27 years later!
