Time for today’s video collections post. This one is from Lizz Fisher’s Umatic master tapes of Sacto Active Rock. Umatic tapes are the big tapes that TV stations use to broadcast shows, so the quality doesn’t get better than this! These are turning out so nice, stoked to be working on them.

I hope everyone is having a happy holiday- we had a blast! Fun, busy weekend. This one comes from Ed Carroll and it is pure gold- not only is Stoned Jehovah footage super rare, but the other bands appear to have very little documentation.
Here’s what Dave Smitty’s excellent nokilli Sacramento Band website has to say about them:
members:
Ed Carroll, drums
Dave Anders, guitar
Jerry, bass-2nd
Jason Dezember, guitar
Loha, bass-1st
Chris C., guitar
Chris H., vocals (or something like that)
releases:
like a dog – cassette
It looks like Psychoactiv played a few shows locally, including one with After Dark Club. If anyone knows the band or the members, please tag them. So great.
I was going to post each band separately, but they have songs all mixed together, so enjoy the entire thing. Stoned Jehovah starts at about 20:30 and then appears later.
PS: Everyone must watch Hidden Bridge after Stoned Jehovah. Deep, man. Deep.
