weezer show #27: Club Dump [The Central], Hollywood
Club Dump was held Thursday nights at the Central, a Sunset Strip club in Hollywood that much later was bought, re-modeled, and reopened as the Viper Room. Way back then it was anything but glamorous, in fact it was pretty skanky! But it was one of the very few clubs that had a booking policy that made any sense, and who actually sort of catered to non-glam/metal bands. The club was run by a curious guy whose name was Yowsah! [including the "!"]. Yowsah! used to be roomates with some members of Wax, and he was originally from Hawaii. He led a sort of dirgy punk band called "Methadone Cocktail", and part of playing his Club Dump shows was often sharing the bill with his band.
Club Dump had a video camera operator who would take overly special effected videos of bands shows, if bands ponied up $10 for the tape. Weezer almost always went for the deal. This show was videotaped. The video has unfortunatley gone missing, it may have been in the collection of Pat Wilson, but its whereabouts have been unknown for years.
setlist: unknown. The only note found about this show is that it was "rad".
Also on the bill were Black Market Flowers, Spade Ghetto Destruction, Crank, and Borax. Black Market Flowers and weezer were becoming friends by this point. BMF actually had a song called "Mykel and Carli" before weezer did [its quite different.], and were later signed to Relativity, and went on to make an album and several EP's. 
official Club Dump flyer; Darrin Pfieffer designed variation [that's his photocopied hand].
