Over the last 24 hours, “juabeaux” has posted to YouTube an extraordinary cache of local-band performances from the late 1980s through the early ’90s. Among their ranks are Melt, the New Bohemians, The End, Rev. Horton Heat, Billygoat and the Buck Pets; among the venues are places you used to go way back when, including Trees, Club Exodus, the Arcadia and Club Clearview.
So, which one to post this morning … The Toadies’ “Tyler”? The Buck Pets’ “Iron Cock”? The New Bos’ “Air of December”? Really, a nostalgist could spend all morning browsing through this history-of. Aw, who am I kidding. Here’s Melt at Trees in 1991. Because I remember it like it was 16 years ago. –Robert Wilonsky
