Back again with more SKELETONWITCH studio reports! This time I caught up with Nate as he was recording his parts, and he and Scotty explains how Skeletonwitch songs get written. Jack Endino and the guys have moved over to Soundhouse, where they will finish the album (out next week!) Buy the album and see the band on tour! Check them out on the myspace HERE!
Friday night was full of the punk rock down at Gilman Street. I’d never seen most of the bands, and though not all of them were my thing, they all proved to be solid and worth watching. Everyone played fast and rocked hard, it was high on energy and entertainment, and I’ll probably be seeing them all again when the chance comes.
BUM CITY SAINTS, THE DISCIPLES, EVERYTHING MUST GO, OPPRESSED LOGIC and even the “what the hell” jump on, JAMINATOR KILLERS, they all ruled. Watch the video and see.
T.S.O.L. were also great, but they might not have such fond memories of the show, thanks to the rowdy behavior of two drunk ladies they knew. These two ladies were up front and very pissed at anyone that bumped into them, so this led to many WTF moments. I’ve edited some of the best parts together.
I’m also looking for any video or audio recordings from shows at 924 Gilman St. We are working on the 25th Year Anniversary DVD as well as archiving recordings for the club, so please get in touch if you have anything you would like to share.
Here’s another batch of videos that are for the DVD trade list. Next week I will be alternating between these sorts of vids and more recent shit we’ve been shooting over here in the bay, so stay tuned. But for now, fuck a bunch of work, get to rocking these videos instead!
