Texas Tornados- Farm Aid, Williams-Brice Stadium, Columbia, South Carolina 10/12/96 Master VHS Sahm

OK, this is the last post for the night, I promise! I told you I would be back posting today.
So this one IS the Patreon Voter’s choice of the week from the week before last. Still catching up. I really wish that these early in the day segments were more than 7 minutes long, but it is still cool to see. Where’s Flaco Jimenez? That’s not Flaco on accordion, right?

Texas Tornados- Galaxy Concert Theatre, Santa Ana Ca. 5/24/95 from DAT Master Tape Freddy Fender

Here’s the only time I got to see the Texas Tornados. Johnny Rodriguez’ post from a couple months back prompted me to pull this out and digitize it. Great show, even if the recording is a bit boomy and distant. I have seen so many great shows at that venue under a few different names- Johnny Cash/Uncle Tupelo when it was called Rhythm Concert Cafe, this show and Wilco in May of 95, and then the 1984/crucifix show in 2014 when it was the Observatory. I even saw a show there in 2020- the TSOL 40th anniversary show. The one thing in common with all of those shows is that security is a huge pain in the ass there. Giant thugs who hate cameras must come with the building or something.
