Gin Blossoms- Mason Jar, Phoenix Az. 5/18/88 Xfer from Master VHS Tape Enhanced Doug Hopkins

Here is another amazing gift from Laura Levy. She let me borrow a couple of tapes when I was up in Seattle back in August. Thanks again, Laura! The Gin Blossoms played a local showcase at The Mason Jar with a couple other band- those will be posted soon.
Unfortunately, the video suffers from distorted audio. Maybe Seneca St. James can tutor me on his anti-distortion skillz in Izotope Rx8. When I try to use Spectral Repair, it just sounds weird… and we still have that Muffs soundboard that could be saved as well.

From Laura:
Gin Blossoms:
Doug Hopkins, Bill Leen, Jesse Venezuela, Chris McCann, Robin Wilson

Glue- Mason Jar, Phoenix Az 5/18/88 xfer from Master VHS Tape Enhanced

Since today is an observed holiday (day off) for many people, here is another video. I’ll start the audio posts tomorrow.
Here is yet another awesome 1980s video shot by Laura Levy. Glue were a local Phoenix band with the following members: Todd Joseph, Jim Peterson, Scott Palmer, PJ Van Zanen.
Suffers the same audio fate as the Gin Blossoms from the same show, that I posted a week or so back.

Feedbags- Mason Jar, Phoenix Az 5/18/88 xfer from Master VHS Tape Enhanced

Wow, what a day. Work into dinner for the kids into Kings game and now home. This may be the latest daily post ever, but I made it before midnight!
Here is the last 1980s video from Laura Levy’s collection of master tapes. Feedbags were also a local Phoenix band with the following members: Jim Swafford, Dave Swafford, Rick Purcell, Gary Martin
Suffers the same audio fate as the Gin Blossoms and Glue from the same show, I still need to get schooled by Seneca on this “de-distort the audio” stuff.
