Engage- Le Chateaux, Berkeley Ca 4/92 xfer from 8mm master tape Enhanced Santa Rosa Hardcore

Late post today- here is one that I received from Rodney Parker and it was filmed by his wife Erika. Funny story behind this one- Rodney was going through some boxes in storage and came across these. That’s pretty cool when you discover that your wife filmed shows too!
This one was a tough one to enhance. It starts really well-lit, then the lights go out about halfway through. I brightened it to a good midpoint, but I am afraid I did not denoise it enough. Pretty grainy. I might take another swing at this one.

Engage- Phoenix Theater, Petaluma Ca 1991 (3/14/91?) Transfer f/master VHS tape Santa Rosa Hardcore

Today’s video collections post is from Arica Pelino’s collection. This was a mystery set, just hanging out on the tape after the Green Day Sproul Plaza set. Glad I found it and glad that Arica could help me ID the band! We have ID’d a second mystery video from Arica, so expect that one in a couple weeks.

Engage were a Sanya Rosa-based hardcore band who put out an LP and a couple of 7″ in the early 90s.
