Skate Nix- Demo 1980s Sacramento Punk from audio cassette Magnolia Thunderfinger Identity Crysis

This band came up in facebook comment back-and-forth with a few people, and I had the demo on a 35 year old tape here. Big thanks to Joseph Vito Lessa for giving detailed background on the band:
“Skate Nix had T bone from Magnolia Thunderfinger, Chris Schenk and their drummer was named Mark? Re-formed in 1985 with me drumming, Schenk on bass, Craig Harmeier on guitar. Soon we got Matt Orick on vocals. Then came Rick Wagstaff on guitar and Shane Kopasek on vocals. This became Identity Crysis. Then Came Bill Heston on guitar. Soon after came Stan Hanas and Troy Tausch.”
I don’t remember where I got this tape- it had to be someone local since it had that Team Urinals on there along with a Final Conflict audience tape from Gilman.. it’s got some hiss so it’s not anything close to the master tape.

I want to extend a big thank you and welcome to Brook Shattuck to the archive. He has been posting photos and flyers to facebook and he has given the OK to add them here. Any documentation before 1985 in Sac is like gold- very little existed before Brook started sharing recently. Thank you!

We’ll be posting one
