Saké - October 26th, 1997

I can't think of a better way to start off than with this recording of Saké in Oakland, CA. I moved from Seattle to the SF Bay Area for about a year and a half at probably one of the worst times: even more rain sodden than Seattle due to El Niño and gentrified by the dot-com boom. I spent a lot of that time only occasionally employed, wet, bored and unsure what I was doing with my life. One of the highlights was that I got to see a line up like Saké, Word Salad, Dystopia, Corrupted and Moral Crux play at the Punks with Presses warehouse in Oakland to a bunch of smelly punx and dogs.
