Here’s another one from Gary ( @bootlegcowboys ). Go subscribe to his channel if you haven’t already- he is just a hair under 10k subscribers!
Gary let me know that he has that Janes Addiction de-shaked and posted to his channel, so I will link that one as a bonus post this weekend.
Here is a Deftones show, opening for RHCP in Stockton. This Stockton venue was way better than other venues in the area for video- Gary gets some killer closeups here. Thanks Gary!

Here’s another Gary Shurtleff video from the 90s. Man, he could bootleg video and get amazing results. This one took place in a smaller venue in Stockton which allowed for some great closeups. Check out gary’s channel at @bootlegcowboys
This one should look a bit cleaner than other videos out there since it is pulled right off the master, and the degrain was done in Adobe/neat video.

Here’s one that I taped for today’s “On This Day in History”.
TLDR version: Forward 3min for the sound to stabilize.
I almost looked for a different tape since this one is not great quality, but I decided to post this for 2 reasons:

No lineage or taping info provided. Perhaps this is known, but it wasn’t included in the YouTube footage. As I do some digging, I will add the information here.
Pavement has been featured before on SMA, but not thoroughly. As they formed in Stockton, they of course qualify for inclusion here. A thorough examination of their available output will probably require many, many hours, but as I encountered a tape of the audio (inferior quality to what was online already, sometimes that’s how it goes) for this show while working on other things, I figured including it here would be helpful.

A very short collections post from Dal Basi today. Moist consisted of Wendy Powell, Sunita Bhardwaj and Karen Simmons- all of whom formed the Skirts after this band ran its course. I am a huge fan of all things Moist/Skirts, so even a 3 minute rehearsal clip warrants a post!

Gigantic thanks to Dal Basi for giving the OK to post this one. If anyone has been paying attention to the sac music archive, you’ll know that The Skirts are one of my all time favorite Sacramento bands. Moist was the band who preceded The Skirts- 3 members of Moist went on to be Skirts: Wendy Powell, Karen Simmons, and Sunita Bharwaj were Skirts, while Tony Muth and Eric Torres went off to do other cool things. The last song on this demo is an instrumental version of a song that became “Blue” on The Skirts’ “Look Up” debut CD. Awesome!
There has been some buzz about Moist playing a show sometime, but I can’t get details. I hope the rumors are true, I would love to see them! I was in L.A. when they were active in the early to mid 90s so I have never seen them.
If you like this, there is more stuff on the archive- just search up Moist and it should pop up for you.

Audience participation time! This is from Dal Basi’s tape collection and there is no info besides what you see. Dal is a Stockton OG, so this is probably a stockton band from anywhere between 80s-2010s. Let me know if you have any ideas. Shazam AND the all-seeing youtube copyright algorithm both have no idea what the hell it is.
Tracks are number and cool 2 be u.
