Captured! by Robots- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 4/20/99 xfer from 1st gen soundboard cassette

A little late with the post again today- here is one from Robert Eggplant’s collection. It’s Captured! By Robots from early in their “careers”. If you have never seen them, Jay Vance has programmed some robots to play punk rock. It sounds way more awesome in concept than execution. Ah well, hopefully there are some fans out there.

Captured! by Robots- Geekfest 13, 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 1/18/98 xfer from 1st gen soundboard tape

Sorry for the late post, 14 hour workday.
A short prelude to this one. I am always an advocate of going to the show- if you are on the fence, GO. It’s almost always better than staying at home. I wish I could go to more shows- I miss it. Well, I went to see this band a couple years ago, and I wished I stayed home. Worst show I had seen in a long time. Thank goodness that the freak accident (Ralph from victims family’s band) opened, or the night would have been a total loss.
With that said, the quality of this one makes it worth a listen if you are curious about a band of robots playing art/punk rock. The show I saw was pure noise/distortion. Actually, this is WAY better. I guess being able to hear the words/lyrics matters.
from Robert Eggplant’s collection. Sorry to bag on the band, my friend.
