My Dad is Dead -Khyber October 22, 1991

My Dad Is Dead from the Khyber on October 22, 1991. The tape didn’t have a date on it but according to an old date book My dad is Dead was at the Khyber on 10-22-91 and it was a Tuesday(he mentions that in the tape.) It sounds like it is just Mark Edwards but I’m not sure about that either. (The other band members could just be really quite) My Dad is Dead is no longer performing but go to the My Dad is Dead site. or the new band: Secular Joy _Sorry I didn’t figure out all the song titles if anyone can help with that please leave a comment.

Straitjacket Fits Live from JC Dobbs – 7/27/93

Straitjacket Fits
Straitjacket Fits sprang from the ashes of the DoubleHappys, a trio (named after a particularly loud brand of firecracker) that formed in Dunedin, New Zealand in the early ’80s. The band members were Shayne Carter, John Collie, David Wood and Andrew Brough. I believe this show is from JC Dobbs but I’m not sure exactly when. Most likely it is from 1993 since it has songs from all of their releases up through Blow. When the Straightjacket Fits broke up Shayne Carter formed Dimmer

Pavement – Khyber 7-30-92

Pavement from the Khyber on July 30, 1992. Most of the songs are from Slanted and Enchanted or earlier releases. This might be their first time at the Khyber, I’m not sure. I know it’s not their first time in Philly because I’ve always regretted that I missed them playing outside of the Record Exchange.

Dustdevils Khyber, Philadelphia 1-11 1991

DustDevils

Dustdevils from the Khyber on January 11, 1991. Sorry I didn’t have time to try and figure out the tracklist – if anyone can identify the songs please leave a comment. Plus I’m stealing the picture and this short description form the Tean Beat page on the them: The New York City noise-rock band DUSTdevils was led by British expatriate Michael Duane, who formed the group during the mid-1980s with Australian-born singer/bassist Jaqi Dulany. Originally based in Leeds, England, Dustdevils issued a handful of records on the Rouska label before hopping the Atlantic, where they recruited bassist Mark Ibold and drummer Reed in time to record 1989’s “Is Big Leggy” single for Teen-Beat. The full-length Geek Drip followed that same year, and in 1990 the group issued Struggling Electric & Chemical. Ibold soon joined Pavement.

Mike Rep – Khyber 08/07/1993 Siltbreeze Show

Mike Rep from Siltbreeze night at the Khyber with Temple of Bon Matin, Strapping Field Hands, V-3 and GBV, From the Siltbreeze site: Before there were peckerwoods buzzing about lo-fi, Mike Rep—fed by a love for B-grade horror flicks, (the aforementioned) 13 Floor Elevators, Velvet Undergound, Kim Fowley and (blech!) The Doors—was concocting a mash of home-recorded punk, pop and psychedelia for a few fortunate ears. This isn’t the Sunset Strip or Lower East Side, folks, it’s Grove City, Ohio, a scene ruled by codeine, cannabis and Carling. So be prepared to hunker down with a fuzzy, furry and fried collection of 20-plus years of sound from the vaults of one of America’s most important legends in the flesh. The Creeping Flesh, that is.
Thanks to Mark Lux for the video tape. Thanks to Adam for the song titles.

Girls Against Boys – Khyber Philadelphia 5-14-92

Girls Against Boys from the Khyber in 1992. It is mostly stuff from their first 2 releases Nineties vs Eighties & Tropic of Scorpio plus my favorite Venus Luxure No.1 Baby. They played the Khyber pretty regularly so I’m not sure this is the right flyer. I as usual could not come up with all the song titles if anyone can fill in the titles for the first two songs please add a comment.

A little info on them: The group began as a side project of Eli Janney and Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty. Canty left the project by 1990 due to his commitments with Fugazi. Janney went on to recruit three former members of D.C. hardcore punk group Soulside—Scott McCloud, Johnny Temple, and Alexis Fleisig—to complete the line-up.[1] Girls Against Boys are perhaps most notable for employing dual bass guitars, a rarity in rock music, and for their second album, Venus Luxure No.1 Baby, a heavy yet nuanced entry into early 1990s post-hardcore.
