Oh, this is so utterly amazing. It's like being back in '99 again...you know, before the world burned down. One of the best bands ever doing their best things. You're a saint for posting this.
These shows were so fun, I saw them alot around 1998-2001. I had a fan site, so I interviewed them twice on a shitty micro tape recorder. I also heard one the of my 1st performance experience of them playing Press Gang at Chain Reaction, then saw them at the Troubadour, then there was also this secret show at the PCH Club when they toured with the Catheters! Good times! I saw them about a year ago, and it's a combination of dancers and people pushing others. All seem like they are enjoying the show but it's kinda hard to get close. They are very nice people from my experiences with them. In the late 90's me and my girlfriend would sneak throw away camera's in the show before every cell phone had a camera, venues were really strict about not bring in a camera. I got a few good pictures, but my memories are really good!
Same year I was introduced to MCD. Later that year I got to see them in a basement in Anchorage, AK with an audience of about 30-35 people. I went to their show at UAA the night before, and at the end of the set, Spencer was like "So, I guess tomorrow we're playing at Kyle's house? Everybody know Kyle?" I was very lucky to know where Kyle lived that day.
Well their energy was so different then too. The 90s in general the crowds were hungry, rabid, and ravenous. We were looking for a release, a healthy place to discharge and recharge as much as we were there for the experience. On a side note: these days, it would seem, that documenting the show is more important than experiencing and absorbing the show, never mind actually finding a release.
Mark Wilkins yeah I stopped going to rock and roll shows bc of that... I’m glad I got see these bands back then. Mcd was such a fun sweaty night back then. When they play now... those songs still stand tall.

Me trying to find MCD 1999 Fireside Bowl videos. They either don't exist or lost to the world, it was amazing and I'm happy you uploaded this
The energy of the audience is so drastically different than it is now when they tour...

Well those kids that were 21 are 43 now, so…..
@@straightcashhomey1261 do the MCD not appeal to 21 year olds now?
@@fezenstein they should but I doubt it
Back in time. It took me an hour to find my car after the show.
Theeee greatest.
That is the real MCD!
Looks like RCKCNDY March 5, 1999
I miss this, have no idea what they are trying to do these days.

Saw these guys at CBGBs in 2000 or 2001. I was cool once....
Was that the same bill with the Hellacopters and the Yo-yos? That was a great night.
