Here is Banger’s set from Blue Lamp on Saturday. They were one of the last bands to play, so the crowd had thinned a bit. I learned that the blue lamp has a lighting system that is turned on, or turned off- there is no in between. So, Banger asked for the front lights to be turned down… so they are a bit dark.
Band features Bill Heston from Identity Crysis- a local punk band who was on mystic records back in the 80s.
Wahzoo was a short-lived band from Sacramento in the mid-90s. They consisted of:
Bill Heston- guitar,
Dan Yoas- drums,
Rick Bowersock- bass and vocals. Rick has also played with RKL and Stalag 13 (must be an Oxnard native).

MASSIVE thanks to Mark Murray for digging this one up. A CLASSIC episode from Roseville cable with so much good stuff. First, we have an unknown band playing a garage. Then we have Identity Crysis live in studio. Up nest is an interview/profile of Last Warning (formerly Malfator) and show concludes with Outrage.
Check Mark Murray’s amazing commercial at the 10:00 mark. So awesome.
You gotta hand it to Roseville Cable- it seems like you could air anything you wanted back then.

OK, everyone is asking for old local stuff. I bought my first video camera on 5/6/88. I went straight to Gilman to film Operation Ivy and my battery died. The next day, the guys in Identity Crysis invited me over to their rehearsal space to video. They were based in roseville, and had a 7″ single on Mystic Records back around this time frame. Oh, also, since I had a new camera, I was video taping everything in sight.. so at the beginning you will get to see my mom’s old cat Molly (she was a jerk) and my mom briefly with her fabulous 80s hair. Enjoy.
