Yahtzee Punks- Secret Center Sacramento Comp with No Kill I, Knockoffs, Nar, The Bananas more master

Here is the last Secret Center post for now. I know I promised posts for the rest of the week, but I blew it early by posting 2 in one day because I had to hide/post the No Kill I tape unnanounced.
Anyway, this is the tape I have been trying to find for years. I owe the secret center guys a huge thanks, and I even got a personalized, colored Yahtzee card. Nice!
Features a ton of bands as shown in the image. I was looking for the Knockoffs and Nar songs specifically, but all of the bands are great.

Happy Mothers Day to all moms out there! We are getting close to the end of the NAR November 1994 tour videos. Here is a show that I had seen on video, but from a different handheld source. This is the best picture quality of them all- I didn’t even need to degrain this one.

NAR- Pink Flamingo, Austin Tx Nov 1994 xfer from 8mm master videotape enhanced Sacramento Very Small

I have a couple very short video clips that have been sitting here for a bit, so I figured that I would do a short one and a full set today. That’s right 2 for the price of 1!
The first one comes from Ed Carroll’s archive of killer stuff- we have a lot of fun concerts coming up for you- the first one is a short clip from Austin. Yes, I did pick that thumbnail on purpose because it is hilarious. This is only 3min long for some reason.

NAR- Corpus Christi, Texas Nov 94 xfer from 8mm master tape Enhanced Sacramento Punk Band

OK, video Friday/Sat/Sun.
The NAR November 94 tour marches forward- there are 4 or 5 shows to post from this run, here is #2. Huge thanks to Ed Carroll for loaning the tapes and helping to ID the locations. This one has not one cover penned by Tom Hutchison, but TWO: Sleep til Noon (Captain 9s) and Rumble in the Housing Project (Knockoffs). These guys know the good songs to cover, for sure.

NAR- Mercury Theater, Knoxville Tn Nov 1994 xfer from 8mm master tape Enhanced Sacramento Punk

It’s another NAR weekend! There will be at least 1 more NAR weekend. It’s like heavy metal parking lot weekend, but cooler.
I hope everyone is having fun at Record Store Day- I sat this one out. Way too much stuff over here. I hope everyone gets what they wanted. So Dal (phono Select) and Steve (Audio Nerd), I’m not cheating on you, just abstaining this year.

Nar- Minot, ND. November 1994 xfer from band 8mm master Enhanced Sacramento Punk

Here’s the last installment from Ed Carroll’s bag of NAR tour tapes. Thanks to Ed and Scott for trusting me with them. I had never heard of a band playing this city so I had to look it up. It’s the 4th largest city in ND and that’s about it. Scott told me that punk kids who corresponded with them would ask them to play their town, and they would! Amazing.
