Musicalifornia- Local TV Show w/ The Pandoras, The Bangles, Raszebrae, Black Flag 1st gen VHS 1988

My friend Erik Flannigan generously gifted these files to me the other day, asking if they were good candidates for the sac music archive. I looked at the first episode and THE PANDORAS are on it! It was a total surprise.
Question for you Black Flag video completists– is the footage at about the 20:00 mark circulated anywhere? I tried to search “black flag casa blanca” on youtube and nothing came up. If it is uncirculated, what a find!

Beat Farmers, Lone Justice, Rave-Ups: Musicalifornia TV Show Ep 9 1988 xfer 1st gen pre-prod VHS

Since everyone enjoyed the last Musicalifornia episode so much, here is another one from 1988. The theme for this show was “country” even though these bands leaned on the rock side of the spectrum. About half the show is dedicated to Lone Justice. The mighty Beat Farmers start at about 17:00.
Thanks to Erik Flannigan for sending this over, and to Rick Gershon for preserving these all these years!

There is a short X clip at about 20:00.

Musicalifornia EP #10 1988 w/ TSOL, Cruzados, The Knitters and X Punk xfer from 1st gen VHS preprod

About 5 people asked for the episode with X… but unfortunately you also need to sit through Joe Wood era TSOL. Sorry.
Seriously though, the theme of this episode is Catching up on what the original Punk scene has become… pretty good stuff. And I never knew that the Cruzados used to be the Plugz.
Thanks to Erik Flannigan for sending these my way, and to Rick Gershon for holding onto the VHS tape for all these years.
