Spitboy – In Your Face
Cabbage Collective
Philadelphia, PA
1991?
This was part of the “Sweet Baby, Yeah” video comp. that came out in the mid-90’s. I’ve never seen a copy of this show anywhere else, so I’m guessing it might be the only footage floating around like a lot of the other videos from this comp. No idea on the track since I wasn’t a big Spitboy fan, so if you know it, it would be great if you could ID it in the comments.
UPDATE: Thanks to J. Ratigan for IDing the song

“In Your Face”
I am STILL a big Spitboy fan.
I see someone holding the lyric sheet in the vid. I remember when they first played at Roman’s they handed out lyric sheets cause they wanted the lyrics to be understood. Then while playing, someone yelled, “Play some Go-Go’s!” Yeah, they didn’t take kindly to that…
I thought this show was from that same tour. I remember when they came through again the singer had a spiderweb tattoo on her elbow. But I couldn’t remember if she had the tattoo for the Romans show, or if it was the Surbeck show. Or if I’m just making all that up.
You could always ask Eric Wareheim if he still has the entire show. I’m not sure how you would get in touch with him these days, however.
I’ve always hoped I would run into Eric somewhere here in Los Angeles. It hasn’t happened, but I’m hoping that he still has all of his old tapes. He recorded some great shows…
If you see him, tell him that I said hello. I’m planning on posting the I Am Heaven stuff on beyond failure soon, just for kicks.
