Rosemary’s Billygoat- Geekfest, Benicia Ca xfer from low gen VHS tape Mac Sabbath Toys that Kill

After today’s surreal happenings, I figured I would wait until tonight to post. This one seems appropriate- a truly bizarre devil worship-parody band. Members went on to play with/become affiliated with Toys that Kill and Mac Sabbath.
This one is from Robert Eggplant’s box of videos. Those are all done and digitized and I handed them back to him in person yesterday. Now I have a whole new bag of stuff of his to plow through, along with an unreal collection of video masters from Guerin Myall. Yesterday was the best pickup and delivery day in a loong time. Thanks guys!

Recorded by: ?. I don’t think this is an Eggplant master because the dub seems to cut in a few seconds into the tape.

Dairy Queens / Yogurt- Geekfest 3 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 6/4/99 Xfer f/unknown gen VHS tape F*ckboyzYogurt- Geekfest 3 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 1999? Xfer from unknown gen VHS tape F*ckboyz Hickey

Here’s the collections post for today, from Robert Eggplant’s collection. The Burnt Toast one from this morning was a bonus post to pay tribute so you get 3 posts today.
I didn’t have much time to look online for details about this band, but it looks like Matty Luv (Fuckboyz & Hickey) was in the band.
I am not sure where Eggplant got this one, but it looks a few copies deep on the gen loss scale. It’s an 18+ thing so keep that in mind.

Astrolloyd- Geekfest 3, 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca xfer from low gen VHS tape Fleshies

Another late video post. What a long day- I took the kids to Great Amercia which was a 15 hour long outing. I am tired. Here is a video from Robert Eggplant’s collection.

Speaking of Eggplant, he had one of his legendary backyard shows today. I already had the family plans so I couldn’t make it. I hope it went well.

Astrolloyd put out a couple of things in the late 90s on S.P.A.M. records. One of the members ended up playing bass for The Fleshies.

Rudolph- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca early 12/6/96 Xfer from 1st gen soundboard Fang

This one requires a little audience participation. It was on the same tape as the “Rumah Bobby Joe Ebola Geekfest” tape, but I am not sure the name of this band is Rumah because 1. the only bay area band called Rumah from this time frame sounds nothing like this and 2. They introduce themselves as “welcome” or something like that after a song or 2. Then, at the end of the set, they say that Melt Banana is up next.
I spent about 30 minutes looking up geek fest, rumah, Welcome and Melt Banana when I stopped and asked myself why the hell am I wasting so much time on something that will get less than 100 views. So, help me out you all- who the hell is this?

Update: Huge thanks to dl_bass26 for this research:
I think this has got to be Rudolph at Gilman on 12/6/1996. I checked the Gilman books for every show that Melt-Banana played, and Rudolph played with them on that date. I did cross-reference the other bands and none of them matched exactly, so by process of elimination and amongst other pieces of evidence, it must be Rudolph. They never seemed to have released anything but through some very tedious research I found out that they were a band comprised of ex-Fang and Plainfield members (namely Tom Flynn and Smelly Mustafa, plus two others who I only know as Karen and somebody that are mentioned in the third song at around 4:00). This is all the information I could find about them, but I hope it helps!”
It helps a lot, I appreciate the work!
