There are a few “can’t miss” music events in Sacramento each year–
The Punch and Pie fest which used to happen in August, Danny Reynoso’s “Fuck Cancer” event in November, and this one. The Bat Guano fest has been curated by Ken Doose for the past 10 years, and it looked like this year would be cancelled due to Covid. Thanks to some friendly goading from friends, it was changed to an online event and it worked out really well. It also allowed past Bat Guano bands such as The Yoohoos to perform from Germany. The only thing that could have made it better would have been a virtual post-show hangout via zoom! Miss these guys (and gals).

Madball- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca. 3/1/20 5 camera multicam with soundboard audio NYHC Live
Here’s the last show that I saw before the virus and quarantine hit. Madball and dearth before dishonor played gilman a few weeks ago. It was their first time playing the warehouse, and they were obviously pumped. Very energetic show.

Death before Dishonor- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca. 3/1/20 5 camera multicam matrix audio live hardcore
DB4D co-headlined the Madball show. They were pretty stoked to be playing Gilman. I don’t know what the f*ck the deal is with the audio at the beginning. The matrix sounds misaligned between the board and audience, but it was just an effect on the vocal to start. It gets better after 5-10min.

I had not heard Church Girls before and they blew me away. Great indie/punk with good vocals- so happy I decided to turn on my camera and film this one. I bought both of their CD’s immediately afterwards- instant fan.

Class System- Colonial Theatre, Sacramento Ca. 2/22/20 Live Sacramento Punk Lumix GH5S Rode Videomic
What a show last night! It was so nice to see Sacramento show up and support Ben & Gabi, and Hannah Chamberlain. Lots of guys my age bringing their kids & family to the show- it was really nice to see.
Class System opened the show. It’s funny, Nikki’s vocals sounded garbled to me coming out of the P.A., but they sound great here. I hope the rest of the bands sound as good.
As an aside, I show all the bands, and Avengers/TSOL with 7 cameras. That was a ton of work. I feel like I was hit by a truck today.

Sick Burn- Colonial Theatre, Sacramento Ca. 2/20/20 4K UHD Live Hardcore Punk Canon HFG50
First off, check out that thumbnail of Anthony. See that smile? That’s what a week in Hawaii will do for you.
Sick Burn was second up, at the unbelievably stacked Saturday show. They sounded great! Shout out to Travis the sound guy- it sounded pretty damned good all night.

T.S.O.L.- Colonial Theater, Sacramento Ca. 2/22/20 7 Camera Multicam Live TSOL Punk
I don’t think anyone needs another COVID-19 take. I’ll just say that the shutdown is going to hurt our favorite venues, and all of their employees. Please do what you can to help, if you are able to do so. If we all work together, we can take care of the venues and the people who make them happen.
Here is the TSOL set from last month’s amazing show. For some reason, my roving angle has an odd shadow/psychedelic effect going. We have no idea why it happened, and we are not planning on re-do’ing it. Just think of it as a video effect.

Kicker- Colonial Theatre, Sacramento Ca. 2/22/20 Live Punk 4K UHD Operation Ivy Neurosis
Kicker was up next on Saturday night. I had heard of the band and checked them out online, but I had no idea that it was a punk “supergroup” with Dave Ed from Neurosis on bass and Dave Mello from Operation Ivy/Bobby Joe Ebola and many more. What a nice surprise. Band was great, and it sounds good after I fix my mic setting.
