7 Seconds- Harlow’s, Sacramento Ca 11/30/23 4K UHD Multicam with Matrix audio

Here is the other “anchor camera-less” show that we edited together. If you want the full 6 or 7 camera edit in HD, head on over to Jim McLain’s page and check it out. If you want 4K resoultion, here you go.
This was such a great show. I saw 5 7 Seconds shows in Texas in Sep of 2022 since it seemed like they would never play Sac. I was expecting the same setlist and was totally surprised with “Sister”, “Trust” and “Busy Little People”. Trust was the only one that was played, albeit rarely, in 2022. The sold-out crowd was very active- in fact, I had to stand WAY back, next to the soundboard with my monopod on a cocktail table just to get decent elevation. That goodness for my lanc cable to control pan and zoom up there. This was probably my favorite 7 seconds show since they got back together.

Knockoffs- Harlow’s, Sacramento Ca 11/30/23 4K UHD Multicam with Matrix Audio

These next 2 video posts will not look like one of the usual 4k multicams that we do. I filmed with 1 camera (G60) and 3 gopro’s on stage, then handed them over to Jim McLain to edit an HD multicam from all of his & my angles. My G60 angle is more of an isolation shot, so I don’t have a 4k angle that shows the entire stage like I typically have… so you will see a lot of closeups and gopro angles in this one. Bobby knocked over the gopro on his side like immediately, so it’s just one gopro on Danny, one on Bear, and my iso shot. Thanks to Tromster for making it work in the edit. If you want the full multicam edit in HD, head over to McLain’s channel. If you want 4K, here it is. 🙂
And a call back to the Go National post earlier this week, The Knockoffs do my favorite Go National song- Aqua Dirty. I had not seen them do this since 2000!

Losers- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 11/26/23 Bay area? punk band

I was archiving my footage the other day and realized that I have this footage that I shot while setting up the ladder cam for the POAC/Annihilation Time show. The band is called Losers, and I know nothing about them other than this 4min of footage.
I checked through ths first page of about 20 “losers” bands on discogs and none of them matched their description. If you know anything, let me know.

Thanks Sarah Creamer for the info- the band is from the bay area and are: JERJ-DRUMS ANDREW-GUITAR ETHAN-VOX-STEVE-BASS

Smokers- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 11/26/23 4K UHD Multicam with Multitrack Audio Nuisance Drunk Horse

I figured I would wait until the football games were over before posting today.
I need to admit I had no idea who Smokers were and they just happened to be playing in between Planet on a Chain and Annihilation Time so I kept the cameras rolling.. I just looked them up to see who they were…
Well, holy sh*t I’m an idiot. This is Andy Asp (from legendary lookout band Nuisance) on guitar and vocals. Also features Cyrus Comiskey from drunk horse and others on bass… I think. He was on the recorded material. So glad I fell into taping this one!
They have a 7″ and a demo tape and other stuff at their intuitively named bandcamp page.

Planet on a Chain- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 11/26/23 5 cam UHD 4K Multicam with Multitrack Audio POAC

One of the openers for that Annihilation Time show was Planet on a Chain. They are from the bay area, so I have caught them a couple of times now. They put out some 7″s on small/self-released labels, and then they were signed to hardcore behemoths Relativity Records. I had a quick chat while buying merch and getting permission to video, and we were joking about them “hitting the big time”. Haha.
Anyway, by friend Tromster loves the band and this edit reflects that. The multitrack mix came out really nice as well. This could be the best sounding Gilman video since that Jawbreaker 2018 show, and one of the best video edits so far from the venue. I wish they could all turn out this good. The new lighting kinda messes with the gopros, otherwise perfect.

Annihilation Time- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 11/26/23 4K UHD Multicam with Multitrack Audio Incomplete

I previously posted my schoeps audio recording of this show and wrote about how amazing this show was- the band was on fire and the crowd was going nuts. Now that I finally learned to mix multitracks, here is the video. It turned out pretty good. The only issue is that 8 minutes of the show is missing from this version- the hard drive at Gilman that stores the multitrack files filled up and stopped recording during Annihilation Time’s set. We missed about 8 minutes in the middle of the show. If anyone is dying to see the full multicam with 8 minutes of inferior audio in the middle, let me know. I can post it but it would be a pain in the ass to splice it all together.
Hope you like the mix. Maybe I should have bumped the snare up a bit.

Annihilation Time- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 11/26/23 Schoeps Audience Audio Master

I have a ton of footage AND a multitrack soundboard to mix of this, but I figured that I would post this fast as I am still buzzing from this set. I like the band, but I had no idea that the band brought that much intensity to their live shows- it was unbelievable. It sounded great in the room, which is rare for Gilman- it is a tough room to make sound good. This recording is totally flat- no post processing. Vocals are a little light but I can fix that in the multitrack mixdown… hopefully. I think my gopro video angles were rendered unusable early in the set, when everyone went completely ape shit to the intensity they were seeing on stage. Most intense show of 2023 for sure for me.
Good on Gilman for making this a 4pm start- I was back home before 10pm!
One last thing- why are these guys categorized as a hardcore punk band? They are super fast NWOBHM riffs to my ears.

The Knockoffs- Old Ironsides, Sacramento Ca. 11/19/23 4K UHD Video w/ Schoeps Audio F*ck Cancer

I am late posting today- my family got me sick. I was the last one to get it and I did everything I could to avoid it… just in time for the long weekend and the holidays. Lovely. I have a ticket to the Kevin Seconds, Kepi Ghoulie (and friends) extravaganza at the Side Door. If you want the ticket, just let me know. FREE. It starts in an hour or so.
I am glad I brought the G60 for this show- it picks up the uneven lighting at Old I a bit better than the DSLR. I’ll trade off the 60fps (this one is only 30) to be able to see Danny. They sounded GREAT- I mean their stage sound was pristine… then I found out that they were playing on the Ghost Town Rebellion’s gear. haha, that’s why they sounded so different.
Oh, and another thing- The Knockoffs do not play too often anymore- I had not seen them for over a year. They are playing a show with The Brodys and Knocked Down 2 weeks from tonight at the Starlet room! You should go. I will be there, unless someone else infects me with some virus.

Lamonta- Old Ironsides, Sacramento Ca. 11/19/23 4K UHD Master w/ Schoeps Audio Pop Punk

I try to be impartial over here, but it’s hard to not have favorites with so many awesome bands in Sac. These guys have (as the kids say) been living “rent free” in my head for a couple of weeks now. Songwriting that is up there with the top pop punk bands. Check out the “Exactly” EP on bandcamp (listen from the start) and you’re welcome.
Lamonta were the second to last band in Danny’s 5 night F Cancer run this year. I rarely head out to back-to-back shows now, but I had to make it to this one to see The Knockoffs and Lamonta. Good set with some of my favorite songs of theirs, but the vocals were a bit muffled and buried in the club mix. So, go listen to that EP on bandcamp while watching this on mute. or something.

The Community- Phono Select, Sacramento Ca 11/18/23 4K UHD Master with Schoeps Audio

As part of Danny’s F Cancer annual fest, The Community played for the first time in 7ish years. I missed them the first time around so I was happy to see them… and having them in well-lit Phono was even better. I mentioned this before, but it seemed like everyone from the 2010s punk scene showed up for this one. It was nice to catch up with so many people, and to meet Neil from The Community.
Sorry it took so long to post this one, pluraleyes chokes on big files- I tried synching the schoeps audio with this right after the show, but it kept erroring out. I was planning to give it one last try then chop the video in half, synch, the rejoin the parts (which is as big of a pain in the ass as it sounds), and it decided to work this morning. Man, I wish I knew what made it work this time around.
Anyway, a good energetic set from the band. Danny was able to donate $7k to American Cancer Society as part of the 5 night run of shows.
