Negative Approach- Mohawk, Austin Tx. 9/6/22 4K UHD Multicam with Matrix Audio John Brannon

Man, that is awful news about DH Peligro. I did not know him, but I was lucky enough to have a camera/video pass to a fest they played. He & East Bay Ray were the highlights of that set, for sure. The video is on Sacramento Music Archive if you want to see it, not gonna push it on anyone.
Anyway, here is another one of the multicamera shots I did at the Mohawk- the tour played 2 nights here and this was the 2nd night, and the last night of the NA/7 Seconds/CJ tour. Man, I love this venue and the people who work there. Just a great place and a perfect place for my video setup.
NA were so awesome on this tour- I don’t see how Brannon can do that type of vocal every night on tour. My voice was gone, just trying to talk to people during that run.
Huge thanks to everyone who helped with the edit.

Negative Approach- Mohawk, Austin Tx. 9/5/22 5camera 4k Multicam with Matrix audio

About a month ago, I followed the end of the Circle Jerks/7 Seconds/Negative Approach tour through all 5 dates in Texas. Man, that was a lot of driving. Texas is huge. It was totally worth it- everyone that worked for the bands and venues were cool. It was a blast.
Anyway, here is the first multicam edit from that run of shows. The Mohawk in Austin was by far the best venue of the tour in my opinion- everyone who works there was super nice. It was really great for video as well. Since Negative Approach started their set during daylight hours, the quality is even better than usual. The audio turned out great with the help of Jim McLain’s mix of 3 different sources. Tromster clearly put a lot of effort into the edits- thanks my friend. Thanks to the bands and venues for allowing me to do this. Now, if someone can share this with John Brannon, that would be cool. I don’t know how to contact him.

Negative Approach- White Oak Music Hall, Houston Tx. 9/3/22 4K UHD Multicam with Soundboard Audio

This is the last Negative Approach show to post from the September Texas tour, and the last one from the ill-fated White Oak Music Hall show… but this was definitely the best video of the night. We were able to use the G50 “monopod strapped to a pole” goofy setup that I improvised, at least. That angle was still lousy- loses focus and vibrates a little but still gives some decent shots… sometimes.
Forward to 2min if you don’t want to hear the “Popcorn” theme that NA used as intro music to each show. That was my cue to get my ass in gear, btw.

Negative Approach- Granada Theater, Dallas Tx. 9/1/22 4K UHD with SB Matrix audio full show

The first night of the 7 Seconds/Circle Jerks tour was a tough one to shoot. I mentioned on the Circle Jerks post that the venue was very old and the sound was not great- very boomy and the board mix was brickwalled.. nothing sounded good. Camera angles had vibration issues. Ugh.
So that’s why this Negative Approach is only 1 camera. Both balcony angles (Jack Pier’s and mine) suffered from vibration issues. The only one that was salvageable was my GH5S angle. So, if you wonder why I stay zoomed in on the drummer, or on John for too long, it was because this was supposed to be the closeup/isolation angle out of 3.

Negative Approach- Cafe Colonial, Sacramento Ca. 6/29/22 4K UHD Multicam Rode Videomic Pro Stereo

Here’s a late one today. I was going non stop all day long. This show was nuts. I got there a little late and totally unprepared equipment-wise. I had just filmed 1/2TB worth of video over 4 days in texas and I had not prepped much of anything for this show. So, I am getting ready and none of my gopro battery packs wanted to work. I frantically swapped battery packs around until I finally got 2 of the 3 going, which was fine because there was no room for a 3rd one anyway.
I did not realize this, but one of the camera stands was damaged beyond repair at this show. I went up to the stage and was shocked that the one I stuck right by Brannon made it. It wasn’t until I tried to use it in Reno that I realized it was bent. Glad the gopro survived.

Negative Approach- Ace of Spades, Sacramento 2/26/22 4k UHD Master Complete Show

Happy Mother’s Day to all of you moms out there- enjoy the day!
It took a while for this one to get prepped- the audio on my master tape was super thin, so I had to wait for better audio. The audio has some slight issues in one channel on and off, but it is still WAY better than the audio from my little point and shoot. It looks like the audio taper missed the first song of the set- I can share that with the camera audio, if anyone is dying to see it.
By the way, Negative Approach is coming to the tiny Cafe Colonial this summer with locals Holehog and Sick Burn- a great lineup. You should buy advance tickets to that one if you want to see it- I can’t imagine tickets being available for long.
Oh, one last thing. The guitar player played the entire set with his back to the crowd, just like in the thumbnail. Strange
