TSOL; Live
from O.C. (Music
Video Distro) DVD. Live concert. Approx 50 minutes. NR. Taped on March
23, 1991 at the UCI campus in Orange County, CA by a lone cameraman. The
result is a great sounding, but no so hot looking, live TSOL (Jack
Grisham, Ron Emory, Mike Roche, Todd Barnes) punk show. Although the
picture isn’t DVD quality, it is 8000 times better than most TSOL
bootlegs out there. It’s a DVD that looks like a video. The play list
consists of the 80’s TSOL stuff; Superficial Love, The Triangle, Code
Blue, Funeral March, and my all time favorite TSOL song Abolish
Government. There are a total of nineteen songs played.
Although I’m not much of a fan of the new TSOL stuff,
I absolutely love the old stuff. Therefore, I really dug this DVD.
The DVD extras include; director’s commentary, eight minutes of new TSOL
live footage recorded in 2000, a stupid five minute skateboarding thing, a
quick interview with the now deceased Todd Barns (best punk rock drummer
in my mind), and a photo montage of some old punk rock fliers-which
eventually turns into a commercial for various companies. Be sure to check
out the dude on the side of the stage wearing a neck brace. Kind of funny
to me for some reason. Simply enough, if you like old TSOL stuff, you’ll
like this DVD. – Denis Sheehan
