Mommy- Sacto Active Rock, Sacramento Cable 1993 Go Dog Go Magnolia Thunderfinger
Mommy was Skid Jones & Paul Niklewicz’ band after Go Dog Go, and before Skid started Magnolia Thunderfinger. You MUST watch the interview after the performance. Skid is sitting on a throne with the guys surrounding him. When Lizz asks a question, he sits there and someone offstage (PAUL) answers for him! It is bizarre. Mommy was: G.B.- Guitar, Vocals; Jones- Guitar, volcals; Timm Freeman- Drums; Pawelek Stansilaw Niklewicz- Bass.
Thornucopia- Sacto Active Rock Community Cable Episode #28 1993
Here’s Thornucopia- a Davis band that played in the late ’80s/early ’90s around the area. If my memory serves me correctly, I think they opened the Nirvana Cattle Club show. Johanna later married Guy Kyser from Thin White Rope. They had a band called The Mummydogs together. Thornucopia were: Jed Brewer- Guitar. Nick Frederick- Bass. Johanna Galos- Vocals. Brian Gattridge-Drums. Justin Zimmerman- Guitar. Please tag them if you think they are interested in seeing this. Please subscribe to my youtube channel if you’d like notifications of new posts.
