I figured that I would post a video from Guerin Myall’s collection, of Guerin’s band. Stench was active from the mid 90s until around 2002. They are now back and playing shows again. Not only that, but Guerin has a few more surprises in store this coming fall! I am working as fast as I can to support (hint hint).
This is the only listing I can find of Stench playing the Catalyst back then. Guerin, please correct me if this is wrong.

It’s a bit embarrassing when the bass player of one of your favorite bands points out that you still need to post something. I thought that I had posted this one years ago!
This show was insane. The Faction had not played Sacramento since 1984, and of course I became a fan in 1985. This was my first time ever seeing them. It seems like the crowd was just as excited to see them. This was during the time that I was using a Roland MX-5 4 channel battery powered mixer to remix the soundboard feed live to DAT. I would use these comically oversized Radio Shack Nova Pro headphones to try to hear the mix over the band. That’s why this one is low on drums- they were bleeding into what I was hearing. It improves after about 10min.
There was no place for me to be in the club with this mixer so I tried to camp on top of the dessert cooler but it was rolling all over the place due to the pit and general show chaos. Everyone went so nuts at this show that they knocked the front door off the hinges. It was either this show or the TSOL show from the year before. Memories are blurring.

Here is Sick of it All’s headlining set from Brick Works. The lighting on this one can be a bit intense and overexpose at times- that was a “feature” of this club. I remember filming the Old 97s there once and the same thing happened to me. Nice video and good close-up camerawork by Dwayne Triggs.

Here’s a rare one today from Dwayne Triggs- his VHS-C master tape of Blood for Blood in Chico 20ish years ago. One of the 3 VHS-C tapes that he brought over was stuck in one of those battery-powered VHSC-to-VHS adapters and I could not get it out. I ended up breaking the adapter apart to get to the tape. Sorry. Anyway, here is Blood for Blood’s set opening for Sick of it All.

For today’s On This Date in History: Here’s another one of those KCRW recordings that seems to have been too early for their online archive, and it also doesn’t seem to be on youtube. I got a CDR of this one from a guy who taped it with DAT off the radio. I don’t think it was my old friend Kevin Haynes- we had lost touch by then. Nice quality.
