Murphys Law- Transit Union Hall, St. Louis Mo 5/27/89 xfer from VHS Master? Tape NYHC Hardcore

Once again I am pillaging Jim Utz’ awesome collection of videos for today’s On This Date in History. I had a bunch of stuff to choose from today including an entire 5 band lineup of master videos from cafe colonial in 2016, but I did all locals yesterday so this one wins out. The rest will be posted over time.
This video is pretty nice quality- good audio and video- but some people get in the way at times and obstruct the view.

Ultraman- Transit Union Hall, St. Louis Mo 5/1/89 xfer from VHSC Master Tape

For today’s On This Date in History, I pulled a DVD out from Jim Utz’ collection. Jim and Mark Deniszczuk (drummer from Ulatraman) both sent me their VHS-C tapes at different times, taped with the same camera!

I was surprised that this one wasn’t online yet- I figured that someone (like the great oldschoolstl channel) would have put this up already.

Even though it looks a bit cloudy/fuzzy, this is really off the master. I did it with my older (but still good) transfer rig, and those old VHS-C cameras were kinda notorious for the fuzzy picture. Back in the 80s, you had to make a choice- fuzzy VHS-C, grainy/snowy 8mm, or nice quality VHS but that meant hauling around a 10lb giant beast on your shoulder. Haha.
