Collections post from Anonymous’ tape collection. We had a day of Anonymous today- his recorder was used for the on this day post, and this is a show that he traded for back in the late 80s.

I am pretty sure that Todd Goss recorded this show. People like Todd and Jon Vogel were super helpful in the early days of trading. Anon and I (well, more me than him) were punk rock dipsh*ts using equipment that was not designed for live concerts. Jon and Toss (and others) were already using the Sony Pro Walkman and they totally influenced us to do the same. I guess they are to blame for all this gear, haha. Anon got his D6 in May of 1989 and I followed in October… thanks to Radley and Whole Earth wholesale. Thanks guys.

Dino Jr were notorious for being impossibly loud in the late 80s, even moreso than today. Even with Todd’s nice gear, this recording was a bit distorted before I was able to EQ and rebalance it out. Not bad now.

Check out that Raleigh late 80s nightlife. Yow. Music starts at about 3:40.
