Redrum- Melarkey’s, Sacramento Ca 3/15/92 Xfer from master VHS tape enhanced Soundboard Audio Thrash

It’s a long weekend, so that means 4 videos (actually 5) over 4 days! Woohoo! I always wonder if it is a good idea to post videos on weekends and audio on weekdays. My assumption is people work during the week and listening to audio while you work is easier… but what do I know.
This is the last time I saw Don Adams. Not just playing, but ever in person. Such a sweet guy. R.I.P. my friend.
Mike Parisi had this in his bag of VHS tapes and he let me know that it is a master recording. I was at the show and audio taped- 2 sources but this is only the DAT soundboard mix, rebalanced. The reverb gets a little out of control at times, but not too distracting. Overall a great show.
This was one of the last shows Redrum ever played, until they played my birthday show in 2013. Enjoy!

Redrum- Melarkey’s, Sacramento Ca. 3/13/92 Xfer from master Audience Audiotape Sacto Thrash Metal

This one was a request from Gus Buss (Jeff) and Mike Parisi. I have a DAT soundboard tape and this audience recording. The board tape is really bizarre- the mix is not great and there are surges of reverb that cause the volume peaks to overload on my DAT- I have never seen anything like it before. So, instead of the board tape I am uploading the better sounding audience tape for now.
I’ll try to matrix the board and audience tapes sometime in the future- I have figured out a way to time align via pluraleyes, but I need to jump through hoops. No time for that now.

Recorded by: Shayne Stacy
Equipment used: Marantz PMD430 (like a Sony TCD-D5) and 2 Nakamichi CM-300 mics
Transfer Equipment: Nakamichi Dragon and M-Audio Audiophile 2496 card

Whorelords- Press Club, Sacramento Ca. 1992 Tales of Terror Sex 66

So the philosophy of the sac music archive is to include ALL videos from Sacramento based shows/musicians/filmers/tapers etc… we don’t discriminate, even when the content is questionable. The videos I post may not reflect my personal views, or my musical tastes.
Now that we got that out of the way, here are the Whorelords. The whorelords were an all-star band consisting of Rat’s ass on vocals; Mike Farrell on drums, and Dave Zimini (from Apriori).

Pure debauchery.
