80s and 90s were great, before the internet life was amazing. MTV days, record stores, cassette tapes, skate boarding, no cell phones... just so good! I'd do it all over again if I could. Those were the days.
I was there. I didn't know the concert was going on. I was there for a job interview and stumbled upon it in a dress shirt, slacks, and a tie. Great show, I'll never forget it.
Me too turned 21 in May of 1990 I remember went to bar with my father had a beer. Now ill be 55 in a few weeks time sure flies enjoy your youth before it's over.
That's awesome Anton! I was at this show...graduated from CSUF in '99. I used to do research on campus, and my buddy Johnny came by my lab telling me I have to stop what I was doing and come check out this band. Glad I did cause it's an experience I'll never forget. When I tell everyone this story, I'm able to back it up with your video. Thank you for filming and posting it so I don't sound like I'm making up the fact that I saw No Doubt live at CSUF!!! 😁
I'll never forget sitting on the lawn at the Cal State Northridge Quad -- probably with about a dozen people -- had to have been 1990 or 1991. No Doubt playing all ska. Gwen Stefani jumping around in denim overalls and a bra. After the show, I chatted with her for 10 minutes or so. We talked about all kinds of music. She asked if I would help hand out flyers so we both went around the quad and handed them out. She gave me a hug and I said, "Good luck." I'm 47 now, and I think Gwen is right around 48, so it was just two 20-year-olds shooting the breeze. This is literally my one and only celebrity interaction, but it is true. Gwen Stefani worked that little concert like her life depended on it, and the quad started to fill up with people who were definitely thinking, "Huh, this is really good." I'm glad this young lady became such a star, because she was a total sweetheart on that day long ago.
I'm amazed by the fact that someone filmed this on a normal Wednesday in 1994, before the internet, the youtube and even the No Doubt as a huge band came up, and now I can watch it here in Brazil in 2021, feeling as I could be there at that very specific moment. Thank you for recording this! Amazing sound quality by what you had at that time.
Gwen had one of the most iconic voices of all time. Who else has ever sounded like this, live, outdoors, with some beater van full of beater gear, no effects or nothing? 25 years old.
@@MicahBuzanANIMATIONfilming back in the day with an actual camcorder was fine, as long as it was cool with everyone in the band and they management. These days when you have thousands of people making horrible videos at live shows is absolutely ridiculous. The most I do at shows is take maybe about 5 or so still photographs. And that if REALLY like the band. I haven’t taken a photo of a band performing live since Halloween 2008 when Stone Tenple Pilots had first got back together with Scott Weilland.
@@katvalentine7599 what's the common sense here, there could be many reasons. Just say you don't know and you're assuming. We are both aware the album hadn't come out yet.
I worked with Gwen’s Dad at an ad agency and he encouraged me to come watch the band play at Triangle Square, an outdoor shopping malling in Costa Mesa, Ca. They played an outside food court area (seriously). They were ridiculously good. Within the year they were blown up.
I think that might’ve been the last time I saw them before they exploded. I remember taking pics of them at some outdoor mall that was upstairs if I remember correctly. I still have those pics and it was a record release for Tragic Kingdom…
Yes it was. The upstairs if Triangle Square. My timing may be off but at one point there was a large Virgin Records store at that mall. The food court was in the top floor outside
@@adamversus yeah, I believe we are thinking of the same location, she wore a white tight tank top bikini type outfit with blue pants and Tom wore a Star Trek outfit
Met Gwen in Garden grove in 1993. I was in the Army and on leave for 30 days I was 18. I was at Starbucks at 5am about to walk in. I saw a lady walk behind me and I let her go ahead of me. She looked at me and told me to go first. I ordered a French press and sat down. I asked her if she wanted to share my coffee with me or take it to go. She sat down and we chatted for 1 hour. She pretty much asked me questions about me. She only told me she was in a band and could not sleep. It was not till tragic kingdom I realized it was Gwen. I worked security and met a lot of famous people in my early 20s. Gwen was the most friendly and genuine... I saw her again with the Rock steady tour. She was rough to warm up lol
I'm sure No Doubt band members will stumble upon this video one day! So lets leave them a great big thanks for the great times and for being the soundtrack of so many of us!! Thanks nodoubters!!
@@anavictoria7688 It was a glorious time for music. I was in college and literally awesome music was everywhere, all kinds be it rock, hip hop, metal, even the Djs had their thing. It was no fear whatever music you wanted to create you did. We took it for granted, best musical decade in my opinion. There was good stuff after as well but this was a magical time.
I still can’t get over the dancing to ska music. She was a great performer and she was ready for the success of my Tragic Kingdom and I’m Just a Girl only less than a year later .
I would of been 12 in 94, for me that era was Bush, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Pink Floyd, Megadeath, Metallica, alot of different stuff, Candlebox, Gin Blossoms, and even all the really good rap and R&B stuff coming out of that era and alot of country too was actually good out of that era. Basically everything, and I started learning instruments around 95. In the early to mid 90s all the genres were really good, 😂 MC Hammer, something started to sort of taper off towards the late 90s though, the only thing I can think of is the rise of the internet causing a decentralization of music and the majors loosing power.
Every day I go in and watch this video from start to finish several times a day. I must have watched it about 60 times already. I love the atmosphere, and Gwen is so cute, young and beautiful, moving beautifully on stage, and unforgettable and gorgeous timbre of her voice. I was 12 years old at the time (94). Greetings from Russia.
I had a music appreciation class w Gwen that semester at CSUF. (That’s the teacher she mentions.) I was also at this concert on campus. Didn’t know they were performing that day but I was like “Oh! That’s the chick in my class.” Never in a million years did I think that I would see a vid of myself in the crowd and still be a ND fan 25 years later. Thanks big brother!
I was born in 1990 and I remember that every boy I knew when I turned 11-14 had their first crush on her and thought she was so cool. That’s cool you went to school with her, I’m surprised you didn’t have a crush on her or others weren’t drooling over her
@@Sebadoh1994 haha yeah she was super nice. This was right before they blew up but were definitely local celebrities in OC already. I’d see their bumper stickers on cars in the parking lot and every now and then someone would ask for her autograph.
I agree for whatever you where using back then to take a video of this moment in time I salute you. Seriously though it still looks pretty good. It's nice to see old school No Doubt pop up in my TH-cam feed :p!!
I attended this with my son who was seven years old and we played hooky from work and school. We called it cultural learning day! It was a great concert for this CSUF alum...I didn't know it was Tragic Kingdom played live for the first time...So cool!
I’m glad the internet exists today so I can watch. I’m also glad it wasn’t a thing back in the 90s like it is now. We lived in the moment. If ya didn’t know, ya just didn’t know.
History in the MAKING. Coming from a guy who grew up to Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Slayer metallica, NWA, ICE T, WU Tang, when I first heard Im just a girl I fell in love with her and this band. 25 years later still loving these tracks. So many memories where does time go.
It's even crazier when you think they are less than a year from blowing up. They have Tragic Kingdom done by the time of this set and it looks like they have the performance completely down for touring. Unfortunately, the label didn't believe in them until they finally put the album out.
They had just gotten popular in OC and on KROQ. That is why CSUF was able to get the free concert for the students! Good job Titan student activities and ASB...Thank you!
@@MR-backupautotune existed in the 90s. Also thats not true, there are some great old school singers that have awful recordings live because of illnesses. You're just old and have nostalgia, there are amazing modern vocalists
He is an amazing bass player. And can play those nasty lines while jumping around like a mad man. I don't know if people realize how much more difficult it is to PERFORM instead of just standing still and playing.
Propping up and steadying a mid-90's video camera for that long is no easy feat. Props to you sir. I was at this show. Thanks for the memories. Suuuuuurreal...
I'm impressed by how well put together the songs were at this early stage. A lot of bands (especially in this time period) need producers to give the songs the structure that we would end up hearing on the radio. This shows that the band had a great songwriting ability and were basically able to self-produce.
She / No Doubt was from Fullerton...just for anyone who might be wondering why she was playing here and around O.C......home turf! I buddy of mine told me they started out with a sax player who he knew....and later dumped him being going in a different musical direction.
@Goggle products so girls with flat chests are actually men? I had no idea I was a man the whole time. So those things between guys legs are actually vaginas? I have a question then, is my penis supposed to bleed once a month?
I remember two of those horn players went to citrus community college with me at this time. They were amazing musicians. I was sad when they lost the horn section.
And that is probably what makes them truly great. Very few bands last through several decades. The way I look at it is how many marriages do you know that has lasted 30 years or 40 years ( depeche mode=40yrs)??
Orange county crowds are notorious for this. Every artist notices this and calls them out 😂. Had this been in LA then you would have seen people jumping around.
This was also before everyone having the internet or social media so it was always a treat when you would walk into a local record store and see flyers for upcoming shows or even sometimes band members dropping off new merchandise. It was a great era!!!
Not one person on a cell phone because there was none. This also makes a recording like this a rare moment. It also means everyone there was totally in the moment.
There were fliphpones, but many people couldn't afford them and didn't need them because of payphones. Also, they weren't addictive anyway, we didn't have a problem till smartphones, and web2 social media. Shit's nuts.
Her voice is more raspy here I like it..She is hardcore n just a natural performing monster..A true artist since Day 1..her parents must be proud of how far she's come..Wonder if they knew all along how big of star she was going to become..What a blessing to the music world
Her voice is definitely tired here. She's doing little things singers do when they don't have their best-- just skipping certain small notes in certain ways that the most people never notice. I picked up on it first during Sunday Morning. I've been there many times. Lol
ALOT OF FEMALE SINGERS ARE MORE RASPY BUT THE STUDIO PRODUCTION SOFTENS IT. PAT BENETAR, AND LZZY HALE TO NAME A FEW! EVEN JOAN JETT WAS WAY MORE EXTREME. IDK WHY THEY ADD ALL THE EFFECTS AND COMPRESSION TO RUIN THE RAW SOUND OF FEMALE ROCK SINGERS!
@Snarick Klash Ignored? maybe...most likely they had the right music wrong time, or their band broke up at the wrong time. It's hard to be successful in the world of entertainment. Some people transcend all that and are just born with the perfect combination of looks, talent and drive. "Cliche" maybe but still true.
Bro that's Gwen Renée Stefani (/stəˈfɑːni/; born October 3, 1969) is an American musician. She is a co-founder, lead vocalist, and the primary songwriter of the band No Doubt, whose singles include "Just a Girl", "Spiderwebs", and "Don't Speak", from their 1995 breakthrough studio album Tragic Kingdom, as well as "Hey Baby" and "It's My Life" from later albums.
Not a cellphone in sight… Who would’ve known we were living in the last great generation of music. I consider myself very lucky to have been a teen and young adult in those fantastic days.
My son who was 7 years old was on my shoulders as were a few female fans on other shoulders. That was the only think you had to look around! And, the memory lives on without the cell phone!
I was 10 years old in O.C. at the time this was made. Ska was HUGE. The Ska Parade radio show was incredibly special to the local scene too. Spent many moments later sneaking into the CS Fullerton gymnastics room late at night jumping on trampolines and spring boxes for fun as a teen.
Despite the expected limited sound from being quite far back in the crowd, the quality of her voice is very evident. She's mastered the vibrato, which many youtube stars overplay and overstate. I wont unsult her by saying its effortless, but it comes across that way. Even live, her voice dominates.
No Doubt (and Pink Floyd) are my 2 all-time favorite bands. I cherish no doubt's first few albums and their songs mean so much to me. I adore Gwen's vocals and always will. But I had vocal coaches back in the early 2000s that say she has terrible technique and to not try to emulate her if trying to genuinely learn how to sing properly.
Wow, great footage! Brings me back to summer snowboarding trips, smoking joints and listening to no doubt and sublime on the road. Ah the good old nineties!
I'm a 57 year old guitarist and everybody who knows me knows that I have a very eclectic taste when it comes to music. One day a friend of mine who is a bass player came to my house and immediately handed me a CD of No Doubt ~ Tragic Kingdom ( it had just been released ) and said " Here, you're going to like this, it's yours ". I had never heard of the band before and after we had sat down and listened to the CD together that day I was highly impressed. There was just a magical quality about the tracks and how they were laid out from the first track to the last. Sadly though, I listened to their later releases and that type of magic was no longer present. Everything afterwards seemed too contrived.
34:50... Huge Kudos to Gwen for singing like an electric current despite having BRONCHITIS. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻Then, to knowing she had an upcoming big gig at The Troubador. Bronchitis generally lasts 18 days. Bless her. She’d REALLY have ripped without that hindrance. So glad you filmed this.
I was at this show. Came up on it by accident. Gwen was a spaz, sorry Gwen, I love you. This is right before they hit it big and Gwen's hair was still long. It was a hot day on campus. Gwen said on the mic that one of her teachers was gonna give her extra credit for performing this show at school. This was a long time ago when we used to pit and barely anyone had a cell phone. It was a simple time...
As a Fullerton College (the Jr. up the street) I was there for this amazingness. And lived through those Ska/Punk days as an "Alternative Rock" guy. Great vid!
Can you all believe that?? Man I was I was there and look what happened to em!!!! Damn!!! They made me and all of us so very much proud!!! 💯 Who says that Dreams don't come true??!!!! Congratulations to em!!! God bless you guys!!!! Cheers!!!! Am so very much proud of you all believe me!!! Welcome home and keep going strong please!!! No matter what!!! From Marie and jimmy in Buena Park CA USA great job everyone!!!!!
@@whatabouttheearth Oh Please. Take one look at the crowd at astroworld. Kids with their phones out as far as the eye can see. That's just one example. Besides, it's not bashing. It's advice on how too have a good time. Put your phone away and live in the moment.
@@Seraphim4190 You can not tell me that it is only, or even predominantly, kids who hold their phones up all the damn time at events 😂 get real. I don't even know what the fu*k astroworld is. Plus, you are commenting on a video filmed by a man holding a camera through the entire show, sort of ironic. It is good advice, but I say let ridiculous people be ridiculous, but it is by far not only kids.
@@amandaredd3057 back then, a lot of bands didn’t like people recording because bootlegs were outta control. But I was at a local show every week and got to know some of these bands. I had Gwen sign the Hi8 cassette cover I used to film this on, and then shortly afterwards, a bootlegger tried to buy the tape from me. I filmed a handful of bands back then and had always hoped technology would allow me to preserve the tape. I wish I had filmed more but I was a teenager at the time and had too much fun in the pit or stage diving lol

@Snarick Klash yeah it seems like that is how music works now. Back then there was no media for kids lol
it’s still cool, just need to listen to the right music. Mainstream is crap though.
My favorite version of Gwen. Her singing style was so amazing in the No Doubt era.
She was at her best back then. This is great.
You don't like her awesome pop songs where she talks about her body and something about doing a girl from the back?
No doubt! Okay, I will show myself to the door..
Only version I really like, No Doubt. Hate she got whisked away to be a Diva.
Its crazy when a singer can sound THIS GOOD even through a shitty condenser microphone on the front of an old school camcorder.
That is some wild, jiggly vibrato. Gwen definitely stood out.

I’m glad the internet exists today so I can watch. I’m also glad it wasn’t a thing back in the 90s like it is now. We lived in the moment. If ya didn’t know, ya just didn’t know.
History in the MAKING. Coming from a guy who grew up to Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Slayer metallica, NWA, ICE T, WU Tang, when I first heard Im just a girl I fell in love with her and this band. 25 years later still loving these tracks. So many memories where does time go.
😆😆😆 same here! Tragic kingdom was oz's fav album when it 1st dropped back round 95...
Ditto I been just pulling up old live no doubt driving around the country
I just played this after watching slayer at bams houe lol
What a voice... Being able to sing and still jump around like that on stage. And REAL instruments
I’ve never missed the 90’s so much
The Wednesday noon concerts at Fullerton. Saw many of them on my way to class.
I just want to point out how amazing Gwen sounds live here. And to think this was before the band even blew up.
Wait, who'd she blow?
It's even crazier when you think they are less than a year from blowing up. They have Tragic Kingdom done by the time of this set and it looks like they have the performance completely down for touring. Unfortunately, the label didn't believe in them until they finally put the album out.
They had just gotten popular in OC and on KROQ. That is why CSUF was able to get the free concert for the students! Good job Titan student activities and ASB...Thank you!
Even before autotone; when voices were epic even they had colds >.
@@MR-backupautotune existed in the 90s. Also thats not true, there are some great old school singers that have awful recordings live because of illnesses. You're just old and have nostalgia, there are amazing modern vocalists
I think tony was a pretty underrated bassist. He wrote some nasty bass lines.
The whole band is super underrated because Gwen gets most of the attention.
True
I thought Eric wrote most the first album??
He is an amazing bass player. And can play those nasty lines while jumping around like a mad man. I don't know if people realize how much more difficult it is to PERFORM instead of just standing still and playing.
He's still around, did Dreamcar and played with the Offspring for a while
I saw her headline an all day thing at LA Coleseum and she was amazing=== the band too.
Propping up and steadying a mid-90's video camera for that long is no easy feat. Props to you sir. I was at this show. Thanks for the memories. Suuuuuurreal...
in desperate need of a tripod!
Same!! Thanks for the memories!
I'm impressed by how well put together the songs were at this early stage. A lot of bands (especially in this time period) need producers to give the songs the structure that we would end up hearing on the radio. This shows that the band had a great songwriting ability and were basically able to self-produce.
They had already recorded most of the songs though, so a producer had been involved.
They had already been together, in one form or another, since the late 80s.
It was like 6 months later Tragic Kingdom came out. This is right Brigitte the big time happened!
It wasn't early, they had already put out an album and a video.
Tragic Kingdom had already been recorded by this time, it just hadn’t been released yet.
An outdoor concert at the beginning of December. Could never do that here. LOL - this was a lot of fun to watch. Thx for posting!
Gotta give it to her...she sounds just as good live as she does on record😱
Even from this rough video. You can tell she is a major talent.
The whole band is tight.
Saw them in 1992. The energy was amazing. Got my nose broken by the Doc Marten heel of a crowd surfer.
I remember seeing them play with Sublime all the time at several colleges around OC early 90s, good times. This was about a year before they blew up.
That was such a good era, back in those days that’s all I did was go to the local shows and see bands before they became famous.
@@PinkstonFilms I agree though I was too young to fully experience it proper. 1994 was THE year of the 90's in my opinion
She / No Doubt was from Fullerton...just for anyone who might be wondering why she was playing here and around O.C......home turf! I buddy of mine told me they started out with a sax player who he knew....and later dumped him being going in a different musical direction.
Total hate rip Bradley
The sound is quite incredible for a live recording at that time.
Thanks!! :)
Ribbit
For real!
Camcord's where amazing back then. I know because that's how recorded all my bands stuff
Hey, it's 1994 not 1954... at that time, technology was just as good as nowadays. Just no Internet
The purity of this vibe is intoxicating... good times, still. Thanks for sharing.
"my teacher said if we play this show he would give me extra credit so" LMAO GWEN
i love how the audience goes from chill af to wild hyped 2:48 the power of Gwen's energy and No Doubt!
@Goggle products so girls with flat chests are actually men? I had no idea I was a man the whole time. So those things between guys legs are actually vaginas? I have a question then, is my penis supposed to bleed once a month?
Moshing pogoing that's the shit right there youngsters
I miss going to these kind of shows. I miss playing these type of shows. Things suck now.
I remember two of those horn players went to citrus community college with me at this time. They were amazing musicians. I was sad when they lost the horn section.
same here, they lost their ska elements....
PLEASE TAKE ME BACK TO THIS ERA.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I was at this! I went to high school across the street and we ditched class to go. Super cool to see this on TH-cam
Go Warriors!
how cool that they stayed together thru all these years when most bands replace people all the time
And that is probably what makes them truly great. Very few bands last through several decades. The way I look at it is how many marriages do you know that has lasted 30 years or 40 years ( depeche mode=40yrs)??
Umm people have left ND
But they didnt
This has to be the most enthusiastic crowd ever. Everybody is extremely nice and excited.
Orange county crowds are notorious for this. Every artist notices this and calls them out 😂. Had this been in LA then you would have seen people jumping around.
Not a blemish to be seen.
One of the most unique and iconic voices of our time. Gave us so much great music!
Awe, flashbacks to 13 year old little me...this defined my teens for sure. What a gem to have!
This is why I always wish I was a teenager/adult during the 90's :(
This was also before everyone having the internet or social media so it was always a treat when you would walk into a local record store and see flyers for upcoming shows or even sometimes band members dropping off new merchandise. It was a great era!!!
Me toooo, I would give anything to experience those years...
Oh I wish too, I grew up in the 2000’s but I listened to all 90s music and classic rock. Thank God for my parents!
@@PinkstonFilms I know that sounds like the world I wish I grew up in
Being in SoCal throughout the mid to late 90's was a dream come true. So many cool concerts every weekend
Not one person on a cell phone because there was none. This also makes a recording like this a rare moment. It also means everyone there was totally in the moment.
There were fliphpones, but many people couldn't afford them and didn't need them because of payphones.
Also, they weren't addictive anyway, we didn't have a problem till smartphones, and web2 social media. Shit's nuts.
Cell phones were around in the 80's. The difference is none of them had a camera.
@@RockyMountainHiThere Trueee. Camcorders were awesome. I remember taking it out and filming on a tape you bought felt so special.
@@JSRMedia The camcorders I remember had to be carried on your shoulder hahah...oh the silly 80's and 90's.
@@RockyMountainHiThere Lol I'm a 2000s kid. But mid90s brought to my attention that japanese handicams started getting smaller at that time.
Her voice gives me chills and happy tears, those were the days of pure fun living. Thanks for the video.
Your Welcome!!!
Her voice is more raspy here
I like it..She is hardcore n just a natural performing monster..A true artist since Day 1..her parents must be proud of how far she's come..Wonder if they knew all along how big of star she was going to become..What a blessing to the music world
Akhom Chanthavong later in the video she said she is just barely getting over bronchitis.
Her voice is definitely tired here. She's doing little things singers do when they don't have their best-- just skipping certain small notes in certain ways that the most people never notice. I picked up on it first during Sunday Morning. I've been there many times. Lol
ALOT OF FEMALE SINGERS ARE MORE RASPY BUT THE STUDIO PRODUCTION SOFTENS IT. PAT BENETAR, AND LZZY HALE TO NAME A FEW! EVEN JOAN JETT WAS WAY MORE EXTREME. IDK WHY THEY ADD ALL THE EFFECTS AND COMPRESSION TO RUIN THE RAW SOUND OF FEMALE ROCK SINGERS!
Agree with Carlsey. That's a tired voice pushing through a set. I bet she had to rest her vocals for a week after this one.
@@theolynncarpenter4613 HEY, 34:50: SHE HAS BRONCHITIS. STOP THEORIZING FFS.
Ohhh to be a tennager during the 90s and stumbling upon this band for the first time. I'm soooo thankful I was there!!!
She was always destined to be a star!
@Snarick Klash Ignored? maybe...most likely they had the right music wrong time, or their band broke up at the wrong time. It's hard to be successful in the world of entertainment. Some people transcend all that and are just born with the perfect combination of looks, talent and drive. "Cliche" maybe but still true.
I must say that this music was fun and Gwen was utterly adorable back then. She’s almost addictive.
She's really good. She gonna have a great future!
Bro that's
Gwen Renée Stefani (/stəˈfɑːni/; born October 3, 1969) is an American musician. She is a co-founder, lead vocalist, and the primary songwriter of the band No Doubt, whose singles include "Just a Girl", "Spiderwebs", and "Don't Speak", from their 1995 breakthrough studio album Tragic Kingdom, as well as "Hey Baby" and "It's My Life" from later albums.

😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
Interesting note for youngsters: this was NOT filmed with a cell phone.
Is that why its so out of focus?
No, that's the analog equipment
Digital camera
youngsters: Then How?
haha imagine trying to mosh with a cellphone :)
Something about a bunch of guys moshing around to im just a girl is pretty wholesome. Lol would have loved to be there.
Wow sunday morning sounds so good!!! Amazing performance!!
Damn 90s the clothes and hair luv it. Glad someone recorded this preserve that nostalgia.
Not a cellphone in sight… Who would’ve known we were living in the last great generation of music. I consider myself very lucky to have been a teen and young adult in those fantastic days.
My son who was 7 years old was on my shoulders as were a few female fans on other shoulders. That was the only think you had to look around! And, the memory lives on without the cell phone!
We're not the last great generation of music. You're just nostalgic and don't know where the current good music is. Take a look around.
I was 10 years old in O.C. at the time this was made. Ska was HUGE. The Ska Parade radio show was incredibly special to the local scene too.
Spent many moments later sneaking into the CS Fullerton gymnastics room late at night jumping on trampolines and spring boxes for fun as a teen.
@@mymusicaljesus and now the Goodwin Club has returned with a new album 30 years later…
Thank you for putting this up. I love the edge their sound had back then. Their later stuff was fine but I really prefer this ska/rock energy
You're Welcome!!!
I MUCH prefer the crazy girl Gwen to the fashion diva! This is great to see her being the real her.
Dude she spent her whole career being pretty real and down to eartf
You know her well enough to know the “real” her?
The Gwen you see these days is probably the "real" Gwen.
The real her is who ever she chooses to be lol. You think you know the real her better than she does?
Texasscout96 I saw an older video where she talks about being in fashion design and being a star. #goals. #shemetem
Despite the expected limited sound from being quite far back in the crowd, the quality of her voice is very evident. She's mastered the vibrato, which many youtube stars overplay and overstate.
I wont unsult her by saying its effortless, but it comes across that way. Even live, her voice dominates.
she's so spot on I thought it was a track.
No Doubt (and Pink Floyd) are my 2 all-time favorite bands. I cherish no doubt's first few albums and their songs mean so much to me. I adore Gwen's vocals and always will. But I had vocal coaches back in the early 2000s that say she has terrible technique and to not try to emulate her if trying to genuinely learn how to sing properly.
What a gem! Just before they became huge. Playing on a small stage in front of a small crowd.
Hello incubus fan 😊❤
Wow, great footage! Brings me back to summer snowboarding trips, smoking joints and listening to no doubt and sublime on the road. Ah the good old nineties!
I'm gonna listen to "Saw Red" right after this! cheers!
Ohhh myyyy gooooooddd , it's been almost 30 years ago ,what a memorable time were that dayyy ,hoooly mooly
94 was such a cool Year in California! it'll never be that cool again. Gwen was/is awesome
I'm a 57 year old guitarist and everybody who knows me knows that I have a very eclectic taste when it comes to music. One day a friend of mine who is a bass player came to my house and immediately handed me a CD of No Doubt ~ Tragic Kingdom ( it had just been released ) and said " Here, you're going to like this, it's yours ". I had never heard of the band before and after we had sat down and listened to the CD together that day I was highly impressed. There was just a magical quality about the tracks and how they were laid out from the first track to the last. Sadly though, I listened to their later releases and that type of magic was no longer present. Everything afterwards seemed too contrived.
That LP had constant play on KROQ...they'd spin "Sunday Morning" on Sunday morning, and then the band exploded all over the place.
The concept of Sixteen being “a new song” is wild. This is amazing!
34:50... Huge Kudos to Gwen for singing like an electric current despite having BRONCHITIS. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻Then, to knowing she had an upcoming big gig at The Troubador. Bronchitis generally lasts 18 days. Bless her. She’d REALLY have ripped without that hindrance. So glad you filmed this.
such a great voice for ska/punk. I remember the first time I heard it,like it was yesterday. Come back Gwen!!
I miss these kinds of concerts
Man, the 90's were the best!
Yes, crowdsurfing, no effect loops, and no cell phones
Im pretty sure the 80's were better
The 90s were great but yes I'm gonna have to say I enjoyed the 80s even more!
This is so wild. I love watching early videos of bands. The energy is always so raw.
20:30 and the crowd just explodes on I'm Just a Girl..love it :D
I love her... She was a Rockstar for real..
Even with the lousy sound, it's awesome to hear these stripped-down punked out versions of the Tragic Kingdom songs.
never thought id see moshing during im just a girl. i wish i can be there
@@someasiankid6323 it was fun times!!! 🙌🏼
I was at this show. Came up on it by accident. Gwen was a spaz, sorry Gwen, I love you. This is right before they hit it big and Gwen's hair was still long. It was a hot day on campus. Gwen said on the mic that one of her teachers was gonna give her extra credit for performing this show at school. This was a long time ago when we used to pit and barely anyone had a cell phone. It was a simple time...
products gwen didn't have a manly voice though
Ya that person has nothing else to do but copy and past comments that make no sense he wrote that on my comment too.
Goggle products ,Yeah, and Gavin Rossdale married that dude and made babies with him. You idiot.
At least Gwens got back.
I grew up down the street from adrian young.. Pretty interesting story.
As a Fullerton College (the Jr. up the street) I was there for this amazingness. And lived through those Ska/Punk days as an "Alternative Rock" guy. Great vid!
Good ole UCLC (University Corner of Lemon and Chapman) as we called it back in the day (the Jr. that is)... lol
Can you all believe that?? Man I was I was there and look what happened to em!!!! Damn!!! They made me and all of us so very much proud!!! 💯 Who says that Dreams don't come true??!!!! Congratulations to em!!! God bless you guys!!!! Cheers!!!! Am so very much proud of you all believe me!!! Welcome home and keep going strong please!!! No matter what!!! From Marie and jimmy in Buena Park CA USA great job everyone!!!!!
Wow amazing performance! Full of energy ... Love old school No Doubt ❤
This is straight up raw, one of the few ska bands that made it big from Orange County.
Funny they survived because Ska bands had a very short shelf life.
Take note children.. this is how you enjoy a concert! Not standing there like a mindless zombie with your cell phone in hand. Live in the moment!
Stop bashing the youth.
Although I agree with the cell phone part ALOT of those people are adults.
@@whatabouttheearth Oh Please. Take one look at the crowd at astroworld. Kids with their phones out as far as the eye can see. That's just one example. Besides, it's not bashing. It's advice on how too have a good time. Put your phone away and live in the moment.
@@Seraphim4190
You can not tell me that it is only, or even predominantly, kids who hold their phones up all the damn time at events 😂 get real.
I don't even know what the fu*k astroworld is.
Plus, you are commenting on a video filmed by a man holding a camera through the entire show, sort of ironic.
It is good advice, but I say let ridiculous people be ridiculous, but it is by far not only kids.
What about the person who filmed this?
No one could afford the cameras or they would all have them
If I could hop in a time machine, this is where I would come out.
It was good times back then…
I miss the 90s 😍😭
Totally. They were awful.

@@PinkstonFilms I'm sitting here trying to explain to my 11 year old how righteous this footage is and why... makes me feel like a kid again!
@@amandaredd3057 back then, a lot of bands didn’t like people recording because bootlegs were outta control. But I was at a local show every week and got to know some of these bands. I had Gwen sign the Hi8 cassette cover I used to film this on, and then shortly afterwards, a bootlegger tried to buy the tape from me. I filmed a handful of bands back then and had always hoped technology would allow me to preserve the tape. I wish I had filmed more but I was a teenager at the time and had too much fun in the pit or stage diving lol
@@PinkstonFilms Amazing foresight, friend. You're bringing joy to so many with this
