Description
Full live footage of SKID ROW in their heyday! This work was filmed at the San Jose concert on March 10, 1992. It was a part of the US tour with the up-and-coming band PANTERA as support. When the stage suddenly lights up at the beginning, the camera shakes so much that you feel a little anxious, but it quickly stabilizes. The shot is from the second floor on the right side of the stage, and there are no obstructions such as the heads or fists of the audience. The view of the stage is wide and spacious, but the zoom is also used frequently, and the masterpiece shot that captures all the highlights explodes. The sound is also excellent. Even the bass, which tends to be thin, reaches directly, and you can clearly see the detailed crescendo of the drums. It’s so clear, and yet the explosive excitement of the audience is super, super, super real. After all, SKID ROW was at the peak of their career at the time, having sent their second album “SLAVE TO THE GRIND” to the top of the US charts in 1991 and touring the world extensively. Their popularity was overwhelming, and the high-pitched squeals of idols were flying everywhere. On the other hand, as can be seen from the fact that they had PANTERA as a support band, their push at the time was “tough and wild”. In response to that, many male fans shouted for the thrashy “Slave To The Grind” and punkish numbers, and the enthusiasm of both men and women mixed together in a riot-like commotion. The third song, “Here I Am,” symbolizes this mood. As soon as Sebastian Bach finished singing the last verse, he jumped onto the stage, and at that moment, the explosion of “Kyaaa!!”, “Gyaa!” and “Woohoo!!!” was incredible! Even the camera in the second floor was shaking, as if it was really a riot. The female audience members were so lost that they clung to Buzz, the crew members were desperately trying to pull Buzz up, and the guys were so happy watching the scene… it was still a tremendous commotion even though it was only the third song. The voltage went up a notch and didn’t fade away with the many famous and popular songs that were played one after another. They chose seven songs from their debut album “SKID ROW” and eight songs from “SLAVE TO THE GRIND”, and added “Psycho Therapy” by RAMONES sung by Rachel Bolan (at the time “B-SIDE OURSELVES” had not yet been released). They played the best set from the two best albums in one go. Even the ballad “18 and Life” caused a whirlpool of screams, screams, and choruses, rather than cooling down, and the voltage went up. Whatever they did went well, whatever they did caused a frenzy. This is the power of the goddess’ smile, the power of an era that will never be revived no matter how hard the people themselves try in later years. This was a frenzy that was only possible because of the peak moment, the hyper SKID ROW, and the neat and wild buzz. This is a “masterpiece video of the era” that captures it from the audience’s perspective. Live at San Jose State Event Center, San Jose, CA. USA 10th March 1992 AMAZING SHOT 1. Slave To The Grind 2.
