    My brother and I drove from the Bay Area for this show-couldn't stay for the other two, or my boss said he'd fire me (and as a college student, no way I could risk that). It quite literally changed my life (Final Joe/Mick Clash show, anyone?), particularly seeing Boingo. I liked them when I got there, and they were my favorite band when I left, and would be for years to come. Saw them many times over the years (especially after moving to So Cal), and took my wife to her first concert to see them in San Francisco on New Year's Even 1983-the only show where "Wake up, it's 1984" was actually true-later had Boingo license plates and on and on. And, it all started with this show. SO glad I made the decision to attend, even if it nearly broke me at the time!

      @@NeonNoodle-v4g awesome! I hoped it wasn't too self-indulgent. Just telling the truth! I consider myself beyond lucky to have seen them a dozen times between 1983 and 1995 (although, sadly, was unable to score tickets to the final Universal shows in those pre-Stubhub days).

      @@ska4me I didn't think you was self indulgent thought it was bad ass ngl sounded something straight out of fast times. It's sad they broke up boingo cos I've always wanted to see them and even seeing older tapes of them makes me wanna go back and see them. If I had a time machine seeing boingo would be on the top of that no doubt.

    I was 8 and living in San Bernardino when this happened... I also had no clue that music could be cool since my family listened to music I couldn't stand. What I wouldn't do for a time machine! I currently sit in my office about 5 miles from where this took place... San Bernardino used to have some cool crap, now it's a wasteland of sorrow.

      I gave the same treatment to one of the Halloween shows, I forget which year. But the one that you can still find in three different videos here on YT.
      I downloaded them, put them together to make a complete, single video, fixed up the audio. Sounded great, looked great.
      And of course, YT quickly killed the video, citing the standard copyright concerns. Even though those three original videos are still up. Shoulder shrug.

    If I lived in Cali and wasn't only 9 yrs old at the time, I would've loved seeing OB, INXS and The Beat on "New Wave" day; Berlin, U2, The Pretenders and Stevie Nicks on "Rock" day; and damn near everybody on the "Metal" day. What a great lineup. I'd skip "Country" day--though, I loved Alabama at the time. 😁

      Ya, bring 'em on! Send me some links. Anything for my tender lumpling family.
      I do have access to that Oingo Boingo Mausoleum Google share drive, which has all sorts of great unreleased stuff, ripe for remastering.
      The one with the most potential is the recording from 93 from Universal Amphitheatre in LA. It's a board tape, and it's in stereo, and it sounds about 50% as far as it should sound. I remastered that one just last year sometime, and was pretty much pleased with it, but I could probably do better if I tried it again. Just about the same tracklist as the Farewell cd/dvd from 95 at that same venue, with a few changes.
      Also, if you're after something from their early days as this US Fest show, they did a live radio broadcast in Phoenix just a few months after the US Fest. So it was live on the radio, but they did press a limited number of records of the show, which go for big bucks these days on ebay. But, I grabbed the audio of that one and fixed it up, which you can find here-
      hearthis.at/humorlessproductions/live-at-graham-central-station-phoenix-arizona-14-september-1983/
      I should probably also post that one on my Archive.org page, which I normally reserve for all the live recordings I make of noisy electronic artists, but I can always make room for OB.

      Glen Helen Park in San Bernardino.
      You know when you’re coming down the 15 from Victorville, and you go through the mountains and just as you hit San Bernardino, the 15 and the 91 freeways do that weird split? It’s right there in that area. I think there’s even a sign along the freeway for the park.
      I’m sure there are some good articles on both the festival and the park on Wikipedia, if you want some more info.
