Let’s dip into the DAT collection for today’s On This Date in History! I got this one in a trade with someone overseas and they broadcast this on the radio over there, bad words and all.
The guitar is a bit low in the mix to start and the mix changes quite a bit throughout, so not a good one to rebalance. It’s enjoyable.
Recorded by: ? (probably one of my Italian trading friends back in the 90s)

On to Guerin Myall’s collection for today’s video post. I am in the middle of plowing through a bunch of his DV tapes, and we are going to do our best to sort out multiple angles of the same show and edit them together.
This tape was labeled “Fury 66/Vandals” and that is all I have to go on. I checked Santa Cruz Sentinel history and it looks like those two bands played together twice- once at the Vet’s Hall, which does not look like this venue… and a place called Palookaville. I could not find photos online of the venue (and it is long closed), but it said it was “long and narrow” and this place looks long and narrow.. so let’s run with it. This 13min was all that there was on this tape.

It’s Friday, so it’s time for some videos. This one comes from Todd Nakamine’s killer collection of VHS tapes. These look SO MUCH better than the copies I had from the 90s. Features current Foo Fighters drummer Josh Freese doing the ONJ part in Summer Lovin’. Thanks Todd! There are hundreds of Todd tapes here- we are just getting started with his stuff.
