Subhumans- Empire Events Center, Sacramento Ca 3/30/06 xfer from MiniDV Master Tape

Here’s one for today’s On This Day in History that a bunch of friends attended, I bet. I wasn’t there. In fact I went to a whopping 3 shows from the beginning of 2006 until August 11, as I was working full time, single father half time, and caring for my sick Mom until she passed. She had cancer and I was her only child so care responsibilities fell on my Aunt and me. It was a surreal year for sure.
Anyway, this is another one that Josh Parten sent to me many years ago to digitize for him. Camerawork is pretty shaky.

Varukers- Oakland Metro Operahouse 3/1/06 xfer f/master DV tape Punk

This one is from Josh Parten’s collection and I think it is from oakland. His tape must have been labeled as Oakland Metro in one spot and “British Invasion 2k6” in another. The British Invasion show took place in San Bernardino a few days after this with a ton of old British punk bands and ended in a riot. There is a tiny clip outside the venue after the set here which might have been Josh trying to film the riot, but it is too short to tell.

But…From what I remember of the Old Metro location, this looks like it was filmed in the sound booth up there and it does look like the venue, so let’s go with that location.
