Back in the olden days (imagine a time with no social media! No Facebook, no Twitter, No Instagram, no TikTok, no RU-vid) people with common interests used to hook up via usenet groups! Text only. There were thousands of groups dedicated to special interests, music, technology, cars, whatever. It was in these groups I met up with music fans of all sorts, including early fans of the Donnas. In those days we shared photos, music, videos and such by actually mailing physical copies of cassette tapes, VHS tapes, records, photographs, etc via US Mail! Along the way I traded something to some guy for a copy of a copy of a couple early Donnas live shows. I'm posting two different live shows. This one from 1997 or 1998. I have no idea where or when exactly. I've long since lost the information that went with the tapes, and the messages exchanged back then are long gone as my old ISP doesn't even exist anymore and back then we used an email program to send and receive messages (remember Eudora 1.2?) - and those are all long lost to time. Anyway, Donnas fans enjoy these authentic vintage recordings. Starting with VHS tapes that were copies of copies from 25 years ago, then digitized with a vintage EyeTV unit with 20 year old software in a 15 year old iMac! If the date that comes up on the tape is correct this was recorded in November, 1998.
