Melvins Videos Thread (and much more)

  Very nice stuff (It looks like they are playing in somebodies living room  )

[perzo)))]

Yes indeed!  I finally got some of my old VHS tapes back from a long lost pal and this the first one I've sliced up and posted.  Just put the last song up...Copache:

10. Copache 

There's one more track to put up but it needs some fiddling, so I'll put that up in the next day or two.  Thought boardies might enjoy this one in particular 'cause of the time period, the strange nature (and venue) of the show (it's recorded at the Atlantic Records suite at the New Music Seminar in New York), and the fact that Billy filled in, as they were between bass players at the time.

I didn't shoot this show, by the way, I got this copy from Dale not long after it happened.  I think someone from Atlantic shot it, and you can see another video camera on Buzz's side in a bunch of the shots, and if I remember right the intention originally was to edit the two angles together. 

I've got a couple more shows from '91 and '92, one that I shot and one from Chicago, that I'm hoping are solid enough in quality to put up.  Both feature Joe on bass.  I'll shoot links around when I get those going.

And I'm happy to burn this thing and the others to a DVD with chapters if anyone is interested.  Just cover the cost of the shipping and I'll send it out.  I've gotta get the file cut up with chapter stops in the next couple of days and it'll be ready to go. 

Enjoy!

yeah, strangely they just play the intro up to the main riff and then go into Hag Me.  If you play the Hag Me video you'll see that it picks up right where Honey Bucket ends.  I guess I maybe should have kept those together as one file. 

There are also a couple of rough edits actually, Lizzy get's a little chopped at the beginning and the end of Sacrifice is cut off at the very end, but that's the way that the video came to me, so we'll have to blame the cameraman.

Here's a clip from the Chicago show:

2. It's Shoved - Melvins - Lounge Ax, Chicago, 9.13.91

is this the same one you have?  Sound quality leaves a lot to be desired for sure, and that's unfortunate 'cause this is a pretty lethal performance.  Buzz is like a man possessed.  I'll post some more over the next day or two.  killer set list:

1. Charmicarmacat
2. It's Shoved
3. Antitoxidote
4. Oven
5. Euthanasia
6. If I had an Exorcism
7. Boris
8. Wispy
9. Eye Flys
10. Adolescent Wet Dream
11. Cow
12. Vile
13. Hog Leg
