Item sets

Show flyers, cut, pasted and copied at the library for ten cents a page, then stapled to every pole on Main Street. Most came to the archive in shoeboxes.

Scene reports, interviews, comics and letters, typed and stapled in somebody’s kitchen and handed out at shows.

Demos, live sets and compilations, dubbed one copy at a time. Each tape is scanned with its J-card and digitized whole.

Snapshots and contact sheets from the front row, the back lot and the van.

The bands that played the valley’s basements, halls and back lots, with everything in the archive about each one.
