I remember this show. I ran away with my friend Luke. We thumbed it down to the bay area and caught this very show. Tim Yo chucked pies at the band. After they broke up, they released an album of unreleased stuff, and it had some live songs on it, and at some point you could hear the vocals drop out, and I asked John why that was, and he said it was the pies flying. I called Jim Testa from Jersey Beat, and asked if he had a copy of this show live, and he did. So I had him send it to me on VHS in like 1997. I had it for years, and it was lost at some point. This is really cool to see! I had actually forgotten all about it. But I instantly recognize it. Man I miss the 90s. Such fun times, and so many great bands.

First time seeing this show, but I’ve been listening to bits and pieces of this show for forever. That “Thank you” during Veronica Hates Me is a part of the song.
The is awesome!! Pretty sure I've never seen this one and I've scowered the web watching all of the ones online (if you can't tell by my avatar ; )! Thanks a billion for this one
I was at that show. Pretty much right where this was filmed from. I believe it was Yohanon and Tim Armstrong that threw the pies at them. I talked to Ben Weasel a couple months after that and he was pretty pissed about the pie getting in their pickups and hardware haha. I would have been too. Thanks for posting this.
They sound good on this show. To complete pop punk day you need a tape of The Queers. edit: Pretty sure the version of Veronica Hates Me is the live version that is at the end of one of their compilation albums.
Yep this is that show from the end of Kill The Musicians. Ben posted a picture of a tape with the full soundboard recording on it. Hopefully he'll release it someday!
I think Vapid on guitar, Ben on just vocals, and some other rando on bass was better. But yeah, these four. Vapid and Ben did their best songwriting when they were together, Panic is one of the best punk rock drummers ever, and Jughead had a really interesting way of playing guitar when Ben wasn't trying to force him to play like Johnny Ramone.
I moved there like 3 months too late to catch this show, would have been epic!! I feel like people talked about this show for a long time (maybe Ben wrote about in MRR in some kind of gilman hate column).
Wow I didn't know this existed. I was at this show. My car broke down the day before so I convinced my dad to drive me to the show. He insisted on dropping me off right outside the front door despite my desperate pleas to stop a couple of blocks away and I almost died of embarrassment. Gr'ups opened, and Jesse Luscious accidentally hit me in the face with his microphone while he was dancing. The Queers played next and took the picture for the cover of Beat Off from the stage. Almost all of my friends were in that picture. It seemed like all of Northern California showed up just to fuck with Ben. It wasn't just cream pies, I think Jon Von and Dr. Frank from MTX were shooting Ben in the face with squirt guns for the whole show, too. "Shit, now there's no way they'll do an encore." I still find it bizarre how much anger and aggression they managed to draw out of all of the Gilman St. hippies.
@@totallynotkye2496 Ha, "young." I was 10 years younger than him, and he had been in the most important (to me!) band of all time. so in my mind he was an elder statesman. But yeah, he was a kid. We all were kids.

This has to be the show that the live versions on kill the musicians were recorded from, interesting.
yes! i never thought i would have seen video footage of those versions

Nice!!
Amazing!!
Is this the “thank you very little” album recordings?
(in case you watched all the way to the end, Peter Gabriel was on SNL that night.)
You shouldn't throw pies like that unless they consented to it
