Finally, today’s On This Date post. My list shows that I have a Blu Ray and DVD version of the multicam of this show, but when I pulled what should be the multicam BD disc, it was a single camera shot. So I went with the DVD multicam instead.
This one was shot by Vulture Video and it seems like this happened after Ryan bought the Canon HFG20- it looks and sounds pretty nice.

NEW contributor to the Sacramento Music Archive. Big welcome to Lob Instagon! I met Lob at Shine Coffeehouse- he was running sound and booking bands there back when he lived in Sacramento. He has been taping concerts since the ’80s in the L.A. area, and has been leading his band Instagon for the past 30+ years. Check him out on Bandcamp- tons of releases available. I am pretty stoked that he reached out this week and offered to contribute his collection.
Lob moved from Sacramento to Miami, AZ and is very active in the arts scene there. There was a catastrophic flood/mudslide there recently and all of the artists there could use your help. Thankfully, Lob’s archive of music survived to share with you.
All About Rockets were a Sacramento- Based band with Joseph Gibbs on Bass, Kyle Fowler on Guitar, and John Grow on Guitar and Vocals.

I am pretty happy with the quality of this one. It’s challenging to record a band when they have uneven lighting- they had a film projected on them as they played- but it’s not too bad. Please give it a few minutes for me to adjust my camera settings. Sounds great! I was holding the HFG30 over my head to film this, and the camera is heavy- it was like a 5 hour punk rock yoga lesson- I was sore for a couple days afterwards. Jim Utz, Penelope Houston and Lance Davis might want to see this one. 🙂 Jim flew from St. Louis for these shows!!
This is part 1 only- you can find the rest of the show on Youtube

I checked the video list for today’s On This Date in History, and it seems that I filmed a bunch of bands at the Dangerhouse Reunion show at the Echoplex 11 years ago and never posted any except for The Avengers. Here is The Deadbeats’ very energetic set. I am glad that my friend Jim Utz came to California and convinced me to go to this show. It was a lot of fun. It was great meeting Lisa Fancher in person so I could gush about The Adolescents and Thin White Rope. Fun night.
Please note- adult images in this video so I am making it 18+. Log in before viewing.

This one is a long story. My friend Jim Utz flew out from St. Louis for the weekend. We saw The Avengers on Friday, this show on Saturday, and the Dangerhouse Reunion show on Sunday. Anyway, we leave Sacramento at about 10 or 11am to get to the show. The Faction are going on at 8:30, so we had plenty of time. We hit the worst traffic in L.A. and Orange County and almost missed the Faction show! Adam was texting me, asking where the hell we were! So, we get to the show at 8pm with only 1 pass and Kristy Van Doren is incredibly cool and lets us in both right away to get ready. We walk in and there are “stars” everywhere. Ben Harper, Christian Hosoi and tons of other folks. There is free food and drink- open bar. So, I have a couple of drinks and film the faction with 3 cameras. It trurned out GREAT and is coming out officially soon on Beer City Records. Then, afterwards, we are looking at Steve’s cars non the other side of the skatepark and they announce Agent Orange! We had no idea that they were playing. So, we run back and start turning on cameras. Because of this, the first few minutes have lousy audio/1 camera, and then it improves greatly. Also of note- I got pretty hammered before they played so my video work is not the best. This turned out nice still, but sorry about the stray camerawork at times. Thanks to Jim for running a camera and driving back to the hotel. Uber would have been expensive. Filmed with 1 HFG10, 1 HFG30, 1 HF200 and 1 rode video pro stereo mic. Enjoy!
