About 22 years ago, I blind emailed Slobberbone’s tour booking agency, Hello! Booking, with hopes of bringing Slobberbone to Sacramento. I hooked Hello up with Charles Twilling from Cap Garage and they made it happen- thanks to both of them for bringing one of my favorite bands to town.
I introduced myself to the band and asked if they would play one of my favorite songs, 16 Days. They were clearly not on board with the idea, but they did it for me. Thanks!
I had thought that my recording sounded lousy at the time, but it doesn’t sound too bad given the circumstances. It’s a mystery as to why I didn’t use my Roland MX5 mixer through the board. I must have had an issue with cables or instruments weren’t mic’d. I can’t remember.
Charles brought Slobberbone back to Sac 2 more times. Forever appreciative for that.

I ran out of time so you get a consolidated collections/on this date post today. I was on my knees on the floor, digging through Ken Doose’s tapes trying to find a specific tape and came across this one instead. There is some distortion that I did my best to EQ out.
Check out that Saturday night lineup- you could go to this Fleshies show, Go National at Cafe Paris, or Elvisfest with a bunch of great bands at The Boardwalk. What a time for the Sac music scene.

I have another amazing Sacramento artifact from Ken Doose’s collection for you today. We are not 100% sure of the lineage, but it is definitely a pretty low gen VHS tape. Ken thinks this is from the early 2000s, which lines up with the venue’s existence, but why is Danny playing bass and there is no Bobby or Big Tom? Hm.
This is an awesome set with a bunch off 12 suckerpunches and a choice ramones cover. Plus, Matt on drums? And GB(greg baxter) on guitar!

Here’s another one from Charles Albright’s collection. Man, I wish my videos from Cap Garage looked this decent. The lighting was a challenge there.
