Pretty Girls- Jay’s, Missoula, Mt. 7/24/02 xfer f/band archive VHS Enhanced Chris Woodhouse Multicam

Happy video weekend everyone! I got a phone call at 5am (after going to bed at midnight) and I am trashed today. Sometimes I can operate on 5hrs sleep.. today is not one of those days.
This is the first post from Ed Carroll’s collection of tapes. He gave me the bag O’ tapes earlier this year and you’ll be seeing about one post a week from his stash here. Here he is with other Sacramento legends in a band I totally missed when they were around, The Pretty Girls. Great garagey pop. After watching/listening to this, I hopped on discogs and bought the CD… from Italy. Why is garage rock so popular there?
Anyway, I think the band members are: Mike Diaz, Ed Carroll, Jason Patrone and Huy Ngo. I think, please correct me if I am wrong. Is Woodhouse in there somewhere?

NOFX- Warped Tour, Pier 30/32, San Francisco Ca 7/13/02 xfer f/MiniDV Master

Time for one from Guerin Myall’s collection. Guerin is the driving force behind gut wrenching productions, who released a few surf/punk videos back in the day. It looks like he is working on a new official release- looking forward to it!

This one is a short portion of NOFX’ set from Warped in 2002. The sun was pretty intense behind the stage so it is a bit dark. I hate shooting stages like this- promoters, don’t have your outdoor stages facing east. When you do, you have thousands of people (and cameras) looking at the sun in the late afternoon.

UPDATE: My good friend TM Doug chimed in with some context: “There weren’t any other good locations for the main stages on that site. The fire marshall wouldn’t let us put the main stage on the end of the pier where it would have to be to face west, and if they had said it was ok, we wouldn’t have done it for fear of the stage collapsing the end of the pier”. Now THAT makes a lot of sense! There are a few bands I could root for falling in the ocean mid-set, but I wouldn’t want Doug and my friend Greg Dean to be left to deal with that- haha.

Lagwagon- Warped Tour, Pier 30/32, San Francisco Ca 7/13/02 xfer from mini DV Master

Heyyy. Happy Friday. I am supposed to be driving to Concord for a concert right now, but after filming 4 bands last night and putting in a decent amount of physical work today, my body is saying “The f*ck you are”. Haha. So if anyone wants a ticket to Fear/Fang/Angerhead/Can’t/Violent Coercion for tonight, let me know. First come first served.
This one comes from Guerin Myall’s amazing collection of punk videos from the 90’s/2000’s. I have digitized quite a few of his tapes so far, but there are a lot left to go. It is hard to tell if there are multiple angles for some of the shows, so I have been holding off posting the vast majority of them. I did not see any other Lagwagon Warped videos, so I think I am safe posting this one. Don’t be surprised if you see a multicam of this one in the future.
I love this era of Lagwagon. So many great songs.

Village People- O’Fallon Heritage and Freedom Fest, Mo. 7/4/02 xfer from 1st gen VHS tape

For today’s On This Date in HIstory, It’s another one from Jason Ross’ collection of VHS tapes that he gifted me many years ago. I started digitizing them and then got distracted with other stuff. I did make it through quite a lot of his 1st gen tapes, including this one.
Really nice picture quality and decent but shaky camerawork.
