Here's the second of the KSAN Rising Stars shows that I recorded.

Romeo Void went on to release an LP in July of 1981...and hit the Mainstream Rock charts in December of 1981 with "Never Say Never."

There is a recent release of a show recorded across the street from the Stone at the Mabuhay Gardens two months later, so if you like this early incarnation of the band, go find "Live From The Mabuhay Gardens: November 14, 1980" over on Amazon.

Fun Addicts have a website up at:  http://rickclare.homedns.org:8080/times5/funaddicts.html
They've got this very show available as a free download in what (to my ears) sounds better than my old cassette, so if you like this set, go to their website and download it. It sounds like they've remastered it, and it sounds great!

And...of course...SVT.  Jack Casady...of the Jefferson Airplane, and Hot Tuna...cut off his hippie hair, and went back down into the City's grimy night clubs with his punchy punkish bar band, SVT.  They were the headliner this night.

Here ya go...'n happy Turkeyday Eve to you....

KSAN's Rising Stars show, Romeo Void / Fun Addicts / SVT - probably 1980 or 1981

Just before KSAN went "country" they had a series of live broadcasts from local clubs featuring local bands.  This one is right off my master cassette, but unfortunately I didn't write down the date of the show.

This tape features up-and-coming post-punk band Romeo Void, the unsigned Fun Addicts (you can read more about them at:  http://rickclare.homedns.org:8080/times5/funaddicts.html ) and finally, Jack Cassidy's (Jefferson Airplane, Hot Tuna) power pop band SVT.

The Romeo Void set is interesting because this is well before their commercial breakout; they do a cover of the Swingin' Medallions "Double Shot Of My Baby's Love."  The Fun Addicts set is solid pop-rock, trading off between  male and female vocalists.   It's unfortunate they didn't get signed and get to release an album.  While they're virtually unknown outside of the Bay Area, they were a good band and I recommend them to fans of the pop-rock style.  The SVT set rocks like hell, and while they're a footnote in Jack Cassidy's illustrious career, they had great songs and again, I recommend them to you.  I saw them live at the Mabuhay Gardens and they rocked like crazy.

The picture for this post is a badge I got at that SVT show at the Mabuhay from my old punk rock jacket.
