Busy day today, so today’s On This Date in History is going to be late. Veerrry late. Here is the collections post, from me. DFL came through Sac back in June for the first time in forever and they were nice enough to allow us to film a multicam. It turned out pretty nice!

One from my collection this evening. 7 Seconds played a couple shows back in May. Shortly before the shows were happening, Steve broke his wrist, so Bobby Jordan (The Knockoffs, Go National, Red Star Memorial, MTX, lots more) filled in on bass with only 1 week’s notice and 1 rehearsal. Talk about a herculean task. Well done.
The first night at Harlows was the better show in my opinion, but this one sounds a LOT better. Unfortunately, Gilman decided to turn on these new LED lights which made getting a decent video picture pretty much impossible. I tried to compensate with my monopod angle by adjusting ISO and exposure, but it still looks odd. The gopros totally freaked out, especially on Bobby’s side. Sorry about that.
But it sounds fantastic!

Going FIFO and clearing out all of my master tapes that have backed up a bit. This is the 2nd time I had seen The Government- the first being back when Phono Select was still putting on shows. I think the band is from the Santa Cruz area. I got to the venue right when they were setting up, so the set cuts in but it is pretty close to complete.
I also have multitrack audio but that takes a ton of work on a different PC so unless someone really needs to hear that, it will sit in the archives.

It’s another late night post! If I told you what happened today, you wouldn’t believe me so let’s get to the video.
This is the last set from the 5/16/25 Harlow’s show. It took me a while because the board recording was completely brickwalled. After dicking around with it for way too long, I just went with the schoeps audio. You can hear the vocals peaking on this audience recording, too. Still sounds decent.

Collections post from my collection today. Yep, I am still working through video masters from last May. Seems like we should speed up these collections posts or something (hint, hint).
Whorified opened the 7 Seconds show at Harlow’s last year. The band includes Allyson Seconds’ niece Frankie Cerrato on vocals. You can see Allyson filming the band up front. I was clearly still getting my act together when they started their set, so the audio on this is very heavy on vocals since the soundboard was vocal heavy. I didn’t turn my mics on until about a minute in.

Collections post first today- I didn’t realize that the On This Date wasn’t tee’d up for me to post, so that one (and maybe Patreon Voter’s Choice!) later today.
I mentioned this when I posted the 7 Seconds Gilman show (from the night after this) about a month ago- if you want great audio, check that one out. If you want a better performance, better lighting and active crowd, check this one out. Even though I was taping with the Schoeps and I had the board recording, I could not get this to sound really good. I mean it sounds pretty good, but I wanted it to be better.
This was Bobby’s first show on short notice when Steve broke his wrist. Great job.
Even though the show wasn’t sold out like the one at Harlow’s a couple years back, the crowd was clearly enjoying every minute. It’s a fun watch. I like this one more because of that. Check the crowd for your friends, haha.

Alright, I need to admit something. I have been seeing this band since 2012 and I never really cared for them. I don’t know if it was JT’s sound at this show or what, but it finally clicked with me. They kicked ass- the chunky metal guitar along with the industrial themes are really great. Sorry guys, I was an idiot. I tried my best to get the guitar I heard i the room, in the mix here. It didn’t quite get there but I did my best. Go see them- you won’t be sorry.

Man, this one turned out pretty good. By this time of the night, most of my camera batteries died. I didn’t have enough batteries for both G9ii’s, so you get one angle from me, but my friend Guerin Myall filmed some angles up close to the stage, so we were able to edit those in as well. Thanks Guerin!
I was also able to get the raw multitrack files for most of this set (thanks to Shawn Biggs) and mix them- shout out to Patrick Hills for making this multitrack mixing setup idiot proof- even I can do it! Finally, my schoeps sound like total dog shit but thankfully John Loughney was there with his mics and they sound way better.
As always, big thanks to my old friend @PunksNotDeadGR for the edit. What a great team effort. Thanks everyone.

Alright, you get not one but TWO 4K Multicam videos from Punk in the Park. This one and a better version of Good Riddance (better audio). We had been holding off on these punk in the park videos because my Schoeps recordings were NOT good. The problem is that I need to look upward at my camera screen which points the mics up at the ceiling. Thank goodness that John Loughney was there to record as well! I’ve been a Lagwagon fan for a long time and this was my first time seeing them. It was okay.
