Location:
924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, CA
Other Acts:
Angry Samoans, The Mummies, Blatz, The A.G.'s
Notes:
Martin Sprouse: "They played on New Year's Eve at Gilman and they tore it up. Everyone had fun. Tim Yo was dancing around. This was way before they were even remotely popular."
Michael "Metal Mike" Saunders: "And then on Dec. 31, 1990 at Gilman Street's 'New Year's Eve' with Angry Samoans, Green Day, The Mummies, Blatz, The A.G.'s. I made the phone calls to book all the bands. Only 200 heads showed up or paid, give or take - people were busy going to early parties. ...Well, if a lineup of Blatz, then the Mummies, then some unknown band called Green Day, then old LA punk rock fossils the Angry Samoans, doesn't make perfect sense to you - then you weren't me making the phone calls to get those four bands onto the same bill. Actually, I think Blatz might have been a 'package deal'. Green Day might have said, 'We'll play if our buddies Blatz are on the gig.' But even odds, I had worked from the bottom up and already called Gilman to ask Robert / Eggplant to get his band to hold off on the New Year's Eve party bus until 9pm or so so's they could play a Gilman set first."
