Schlong- Dave King’s Basement, Appleton Wi 10/18/92 xfer from 1st gen VHS tape East Bay Punk Live

Since everyone seemed happy to see the Schlong post yesterday, here is some more Schlong. This one was filmed at a basement show. I feel for the filmer- there is no good place to film, so he/she had to film around people. Not bad considering the circumstances. People in the front sit down after about 10-15min which helps with the view. This is another one that was digitized for the Turn it Around documentary, years ago.
More goodness from Jason Ross’ collection
PS: Check about 20min into the show- that guy filming had a SMALL camera for the time. My Aiwa CV-88 was about twice as big. Imagine lugging that to a show.

The Entertainer- Green Bay Wi Cable shows VHS xfer Rev Norb Boris the Sprinkler Blow Pops Exploited

I pulled this one out to find a specific thing to post, and I realized that the entire 2 hours was pure gold, so I posted it all.
This comes from (I think) Grux from Caroliner Rainbow’s collection of VHS tapes. This is a totally INSANE early 1990s community cable show and I highly recommend you watch some of it. Most of it is just insane ramblings from Rev Norb (from Boris rthe Sprinkler), who seems to run the show along with 1 or 2 other guys.
The part I was trying to find is at 1 hour 39 min- rev norb interviews Wattie from the Exploited and the entire segment (including subtitles) are a perfect encapsulation of how I feel about the band. Thanks guys- this is awesome! Around that same time stamp are The Blow Pops live footage n(1 hour 35) and The Happy Schnapps Combo (1 hour 40 something)… but seriously, the4 entire thing is worth watching. Hilarious bored Wisconsin kids.

The Dwarves- Klub Kaos, Green Bay Wi 7/21/91 xfer from master VHS tape

(Warning- tech nerd alert)
For today’s On This Date in History, I went to Jason Ross’ collection once again. I am in the middle of transferring my data from a RAID that went bad (but data was still there) to a new larger RAID. Data has been transferring for almost a day now and it says that it has 6 more hours to go before one of the 2 external drives holding the data is done. Jeez, this is stressing me out. But anyway, long story shorter but still long, the collections post is gonna be late today because of this. Man, I hope this works. There is literally thousands of hours of work and tons of master videos involved. RAIDs are not supposed to fail like that. What an ordeal.
Anyway, I transferred this from Jason Ross’ collection a while back. The Dwarves themselves posted this to YT a while back, but this is better quality. I was able to work this on the tiny bit of space on my C drive

Die Kreuzen- Riverside Ballroom, Green Bay Wi 12/7/87 xfer f/low gen audio tape open for Husker Du

Late collections post today, this one from Jason Ross’ collection. I have been posting a lot of stuff from Jason’s collection lately. This one is something he probably got from the taper, since he lived in Green Bay shortly after this show took place.
The recording was a bit harsh with some high end distortion, so I EQ’d most of it out while still keeping most of what;s important in the mix.
