Exodus- 3rd & Castro, Oakland Ca. 3/6/22 4K UHD Live Encores w/Rick Hunolt

Here is the last 20 minutes of the Exodus show yesterday. Why only the last 20min? Well, I wanted to get something up ASAP and the entire show is over 100GB and would have taken days to process. I also screwed up an audio setting for the first 30min of the show so it doesn’t sound as good as this does.
Sorry about the angle- I know that Tom is obstructed by a sidefill- there was no good place to film from(this was a blocked off street- all flat). I needed to be close to the PA for the Rode to sound decent AND avoid being crushed by the pit, so I found the one street sign and posted up against it. It helped in 2 ways- it allowed me to stabilize the camera (I had my monopod in my pocket and camera way the hell up there) and the sign helped shield me a little from flying bodies coming out of the pit. I still get blasted a couple of times, but I didn’t get knocked down. Sorry to all the folks who went full-bore into the street sign. I bet they are hurting today.
It is so cool to see the band having so much fun up there.

The Boneless Ones- 3rd & Castro, Oakland Ca. 3/6/22 4K UHD complete show w/ Rode Videomic Pro Stereo

Man, this one took forever to render to 4k on YT. We might see Exhumed and the complete Exodus set next month at this rate.
Anyway, Boneless Ones were the first band up. I thought I had given myself plenty of time (over 2 hours!) to drive from Sacramento, find parking and get ready to film. Nope. I got in at 1:55pm for a 2pm set time. Also, the sun was a huge pain in the ass for their set- the shadows darkened the front of their body, so I had to crank up my exposure to compensate.
It was a good set- this version of the boneless ones is different than the ones I have heard on compilation records- very metal thanks to Craig Locicero (Forbidden, Dress the Dead) and Chris Kontos (a million bands, but probably best known for Attitude Adjustment and Machine Head).

Exhumed- 3rd & Castro, Oakland Ca. 3/6/22 4K UHD Complete Set Rode Videomic Pro Death Gore Metal

Exhumed played in the middle slot last Sunday. I wasn’t familiar with their material, but they were definitely the most evil band of the day. Apologies for pulling my camera away when they started spraying the blood- it looked like it was coming right for us!

Exodus- 3rd & Castro, Oakland Ca. 3/6/22 Complete 4K UHD w/ Schoeps Audio Canon HF G60

Finally, here is the complete Exodus set. I made a mistake with my microphone for the first 40min of the set, so thanks to Ted Mattes, he hooked me up with a Schoeps audio recording and it sounds much better now.
Such a great show and a fun time- like Zetro said, there were so many bands represented that built the bay area thrash scene. I must commend all of us 50-somethings that kept the pit going for the entire show. I saw a couple people take a headfirst dive right over by me, hope everyone got home safely and avoided the hospital. Damn, what a party.
