Old 97s- Senator Theatre, Chico Ca. 3/27/23 4K UHD Master w/ DPA 40661 audio Complete Show

Alright. First of all, I REALLY appreciate live music venues in general. The ones who were able to survive the COVID lockdowns need and deserve your support. I rarely have anything negative to say about any venue- most are pretty good. I had this long rant about the venue here that I deleted. Never mind. Support live music.

I had brought all of my cameras, but after assessing the environment at the show, I only shot with the GH5S. Sorry about the audio, these are my nice DPA mics. I did my best…. and I shot the Roseville show with 6 4K cameras and it sounds MUCH better, so stay tuned!
Thanks always to the band for 25 years of friendship and being so cool with my exploits.

The Empty Gate- The Maltese, Chico Ca. 4/19/19 Multicam with Rode audio Vomit Launch

It has been almost 30 years since I had seen Trish Rowland- the last time we were in the same room was 10/16/92 at the Cattle Club. Sam Habash and I trekked up to Chico to see her new band (The Empty Gate) play a show. She remembered me and we had a nice chat- she has always been so nice. Some things never change. 🙂

Sneeze Attack- The Maltese, Chico Ca. 4/19/19 Multicam with Rode audio

Me and my friend Sam went up to Chico to see The Empty Gate (Trish from vomit launch’s new band) and who do I run into? Sac’s own Sneeze Attack! How cool is that? This was their first show back after a long layoff. In fact, I think it was the first show in this incarnation of the band.

Slobberbone- LaSalle’s, Chico Ca. 1/22/03 xfer from master tape!

Happy Friday everyone. I am posting 2 videos today, and neither one is a local band or local venue. I have more coming next week from Cattle Club, Spankys (!) and more. This is one of my 3 favorite alt-country bands. Slobberbone skipped Sacramento and only played the bay area and Chico, so I hoofed it to Chico to see them. The video cuts in on a great cover of “Don’t Cry No Tears”, as I was having some trouble with the DAT machine at the soundboard (meaning, I FORGOT A TAPEW. DUH.). Audio is choppy for the first 45 seconds and then cleans up. I start zooming with the camera about 8min in. Filmed with the JVC DV camcorder and stock mic.

Sick of it All- Brick Works Chico Ca 9/23/02 Lossless xfer from VHS-C Master Tape Enhanced NYHC

Here is Sick of it All’s headlining set from Brick Works. The lighting on this one can be a bit intense and overexpose at times- that was a “feature” of this club. I remember filming the Old 97s there once and the same thing happened to me. Nice video and good close-up camerawork by Dwayne Triggs.

Blood for Blood- Brick Works, Chico Ca 9/23/02 xfer from VHS-C Master Tape Enhanced Boston Hardcore

Here’s a rare one today from Dwayne Triggs- his VHS-C master tape of Blood for Blood in Chico 20ish years ago. One of the 3 VHS-C tapes that he brought over was stuck in one of those battery-powered VHSC-to-VHS adapters and I could not get it out. I ended up breaking the adapter apart to get to the tape. Sorry.
Anyway, here is Blood for Blood’s set opening for Sick of it All.

Flaming Lips- Burro Room, Chico Ca. 10/21/89 Audio Only Sony WMD6C Pro Walkman Live Master Xfer

Back in the 80s, it was really hard to get information about out-of-town shows. You could get some info from the SF Chronicle’s pink sheets, but a lot of it was word of mouth or getting a flyer(or The List) from a show. Chico was a total black hole (no offense intended)- the only way we found out about these shows was usually when we would see a band in Sac and they told us that they were playing Chico the next night.
So after laying waste to the UC Davis Coffeehouse, Anonymous followed them to Chico the record the Burro Room show. This one is as good quality as UCD.
