The Faction- Blue Lamp, Sacramento Ca. 12/1/18 5 camera Multicam w/Soundboard Audio N-Men

This one turned out nicer than most Blue Lamp videos. They put a bright/spotlight on the floor by the monitors and it really helped lighten up things. It caused some other challenges, but we worked around them. Thanks to the mystery guy for fixing the gopro by Adam when it got knocked around. MVP right there.

The Faction- Faction Brewing Company, Alameda Ca. 9/29/18 Multicam with Soundboard Audio Skate Rock

Faction Brewing Co had their 5 year anniversary party at their brewery a while back, and they went all out! They had a full day of bands playing, including The Adolescents headlining with The Faction as co-headliner. The stage, lights and sound were top notch. If I had to nit pick, I would have repositioned the camera on Steve since there is so much glare from the spotlight. Great show!
By the way, The Faction are playing their last 2 shows EVER this month… They are playing L.A. this Saturday night, and San Jose on 2/22/20. I am going to miss them- I have appreciated them being so cool to me… they are responsible for my one and only official DVD release (Cab’s 50th at Vans in Orange County).

The Faction- Blank Club, San Jose Ca. 9/6/14 Part 1 4 camera Multicam w/Soundboard Audio!

This may be the most stressed out I have ever been at a show. I had permission to video the show, but Blank Club has a strict “no tripod” rule. I got there planning to use these pole mounts instead- and the club had no poles. So I hopped in the car and drove to Fry’s to buy 2 monopods that I duct taped to the walls in the soundboard area and by the stage. I am shocked that it worked so well. During this entire ordeal, my friends were at dinner having fun. Thanks to Mike for bringing me food so I could eat something before they went on. The soundboard recording has some crackle/distortion for the first few songs. It gets a lot better, so hang in there. Thanks to Adam Bomb for the use of his “Amp Cam” video, and as always, thanks to Agelos and Bong for all their hard work mixing this stuff. Thanks!

This is part 1 only- you can find the rest of the show on Youtube

The Faction- Blank Club, San Jose Ca. 5/10/14 HD Master with Soundboard/Schoeps Aud matrix Caballero

I know that the schedule is audio on weekdays, video on weekends.. but I wanted to celebrate RSII’s recovery from COVID with this video! Ray plays bass for the faction and was in ICU for a while with a severe case of the virus. There were about a million people pulling for him, and the good vibes must have come through.. plus Ray is a bad ass so that might have helped.

This is the band’s first show back after a 10+ year layoff, and Adam’s first show with the band in even longer.
