The first band I ever videotaped (besides my friends' bands) was The Wynona Riders, an early 90's East Bay pop-punk band , that played to a handful of people at the Showplace in 1995. This is the song "Squirrel Happy". If you like what you hear, I suggest you check out their album, J.D. Salinger.
Eleven years ago today, Texas Is The Reason opened for Snapcase at the Showplace Theatre in Buffalo, NY. I was still pretty new to taping bands, and for whatever reason, I shot this from somewhere in the middle of the crowd. I soon learned there were better places to tape from and to plant myself there before bands started. I apologize in advance because the camera work is a bit shaky at times.
