Jello Biafra and the Melvins- Crystal Ballroom, Portland Or 11/5/04 xfer from master tape

it’s time for the Patreon Voter’s Choice for the week! That means that you get TWO videos today. You all need a palate cleanse anyway I bet.

I think I got this from someone I traded with in Spain- like, a real “mail the disc from Spain to here” type of deal. I can’t remember if he taped this show or traded for this, but it’s not too bad. Audio is a little thin but it is clear and not distorted. Nice live document of their collab.

Did they really play 3 and a half hours, or is there an issue with this disc?

Quasi- Crystal Ballroom, Portland OR 3/10/00 DAT Master to CDR Coresound Mics Pink Floyd Sam Coomes

I really enjoyed prepping today’s “on this day in history” post. I love the band and this is a great performance and sounds nice. The vocals were a little buried so I izotope’d them up a bit.
I am still a bit irritated about missing their show at The Chapel last summer, when they played all of “Featuring Birds”. I love that album and it would have been great to see it performed. They do quite a bit of it on this one.
Killer jam into Pink Floyd’s Interstellar Overdrive to end the show.
