I want to extend a big thank you and welcome to Brook Shattuck to the archive. He has been posting photos and flyers to facebook and he has given the OK to add them here. Any documentation before 1985 in Sac is like gold- very little existed before Brook started sharing recently. Thank you!
We’ll be posting one

As promised, here is the Terry O’Reilly bonus post for the day. I never thought I would be able to see this band play since I missed them by about a year back in the 80s. I know the term gets overused, but they were a legendary band. Just amazing that video exists after all this time.
Band members:
Nick Kappos (aka Big Nick Slurb), guitar
Tharon Knight, bass
Vince Voodoo, vocals
Ronnie Burns, drums
Recorded by: Terry O’Reilly
Code Of Honor, The Breakouts, The Faction, Hot Spit Dancers

Alright everyone, I need your help here. This one is from Dal Basi’s collection and it seems to be the longest demo/studio session of the band. All I know is what you see in the picture. Does anyone have any details around what session this could be? Craig at Sac Punk Shows has an 11 minute demo and bonnie franklin has 1 short song up, and that was all I could find. Also, is this even all HSD? The 2nd song (surf instrumental) is shazaming as “byte sized lo-fi”.
Btw, I love tapes that look like they survived some hardship, like this one. Cramming beat to hell tapes into the dragon is always an adventure.
Hot Spit Dancers were Tharon Knight(Bass, Vocals), Nick Kappos (guitar), Vince Voodoo (vocals), Ronnie Burns (drums)
Recorded by: The band, possibly at Gary Young’s Louder than you think studio.
