BLACKLIST Live at Summerfest Rock Stage, 1985. Photos by ffischer copyright 1985.
NEW! More Haskels/Oil Tasters photos submitted by Guy Hoffman GUY: "The HASKELS recorded onto VHS our entire song collection at the television studio at Marquette which at the time was also used for WMVS TV 10 shows. This is a newsprint scan of a photo and God knows if the original even exists."
GUY: "OIL TASTERS recorded "My Girlfriend's Ghost" in the same studio for our appearance on WMVS TV 10 Talent Showcase. It was a contest of sorts and we performed "I Got You (I Feel Good)" for the audition with me singing. Much to our surprise we won the damn thing. And much to their surprise we pulled a fast one at the session and recorded our own song instead of a cover."
GUY: "CALEB playing sax in the OT rehearsal room in the basement of his house."

Couch Flambeau, 1984. It was the night we opened for the Violent Femmes. I had bought a new (used) black Tama drum set that day for $400 which seemed like a fortune. The Femmes were getting very popular then and the UWM Union Ballroom was packed. We did pretty well considering all the girls were waiting for Gordon Gano to sing. Scott Ruud aka, The Rude Boy was taking photos for Mark Shurilla's Express music newspaper and he captured these shots of Couch Flambeau that night. (He also has some Violent Femmes photos that will be posted soon.) The marching band jacket I'm wearing was "borrowed" from the locker room at Divine Savior Holy Angels high school which we had recently played at. I threw it out into the crowd sometime during the set. (Video from this show to be posted soon!)
MARCH 19, 1982: STARSHIP. San Francisco art-punk band FLIPPER on stage at the Starship that night. Men's Toilet Grafitti at the Starship

OIL TASTERS Reunion, 1990. With the Haskels and special guests. This show was outdoors downtown at Bastille Days? The photos make it seem cold and rainy...and there was some sort of jam session with the combined members of the Oil Tasters and Haskels. It's all so fuzzy - any clearheaded memories?
