September 23, 1992. A nice bi-color flyer which looks like it was colored in with felt tip pens; it's hard to tell from the scan. Over the weekend Todd Downerd, formerly of Scapegoat, sent Art of BG Noise this along with a few other flyers we'd never seen before. Scapegoat (Mark Barbour, vox; Todd Downerd, guitar; Vic DiAngelo, drums; Mark Kremser, bass) used to be called Acid Trip. Todd picks up the story:
Acid Trip was Mark Barbour playing guitar and vocals, Jay Zielske on bass and Shane Watkins on drums, and when Shane left, he recommended Vic and we changed the name to Scapegoat. When Jay left, I recruited Mark Kremser who lived downstairs from my apt. at the time. Kremser drew the new "mascot" (who may or may not have had a name, but I don't remember!) and also did most of the flyers at that point . . .Anyone have copies of the cassettes so we can scan the covers?
The version of Scapegoat with Barbour, Vic, Jay and I put out a tape called Grab the Goat by the Horns (because only Big Hunk O' Cheese did CDs at that time!) and the version with the Barbour, Vic, Kremser, and I later put out a cassette called Niminy's Basement (which was the name of the cat that hung out in the basement of Mark's place where we practiced).
The Sweaty Whiskers were a whole other story which will have to wait for a future post.
