setlist details from sound man’s sheet.

Notes from JKP:

- Jason himself came into the sound box, grabbed a mic, welcomed everyone to PUSAFEST and introduced Mike Phirmin. He stood by the sound box for a bit watching Mike before heading backstage.

- Mike Phirmin bombed and was almost forced off the stage. The Duo was great.

- After Postman, Chris said something about playing some songs from the new album then said they’d just play the whole album. They then played their entire debut album in order. SWEET!!! After N&F he said “There’s your whole album”.

- SOB is not on the written set sheet. After NBL Jason got Chris’s attention and they talked a second. Chris came to the mic and said they forgot to do the hit song from their last album. Then they played SOB. So they snuck it in on the soundman :)

- PUSA played longer than scheduled by 15-20 min. We were thinking it was because they cancelled the Feb 19 show.

- I don’t remember the song but Andrew did a nice long solo and then he and Chris did a choreographed thing where at the same time they threw each other their guitars. At that point Chris played a guitar solo while Andew played bass for the rest of the song. I have never seen them do that before but maybe they have. Was cool!

Thanks JKP!

Both of the pusafest posters have false dates, as this year the Pusafest is only a two day event (Feb 17th, and Feb 18th).

PUSA Videos + Interviews + Covers

Some missed Presidents of the USA videos

It’s been a while since I have searched for new PUSA videos, and here are some old and new videos you might have missed.

Presidents of the USA – 1997 Recovery (Tiki God & Interview)

“Recovery was a music and youth interests television series broadcast by ABC TV in Australia. It was aired each Saturday morning from 9:00am to 12:00pm following Rage. It aired from 20 April 1996 to its last show on 29 April 2000. The produced live to air from ABC’s Ripponlea studios on Saturday mornings, featured a mix of live performances, video clips and other pop culture of interest to a teenage audience.”

I have to admit that I haven’t heard about this TV show before. Odd interview, and looks like PUSA members are having a some sort of recovery themselves, as this performance took place in 11am… :)

Anyone have a correct date for this one. Around September, 1997?

Chris Ballew (PUSA) – Toazted interview

Chris Ballew interview from 2006, before the Paradiso show.

The Presidents Of The USA (PUSA) – Mixed Up S.O.B. (2008) – Interview (Japan)

The Presidents played in Japan back in June 27, 2008 at the Fuji Rock Festival, and this must be one the These Are The Good Times People “promo gigs” from the same week.

Anchor Line | Chris Ballew discusses video


Here’s a more recent Chris Ballew interview.

“Chris Ballew of Presidents of the United States of America and Caspar Babypants discusses different ways that musicians can use video, and his unique approach to making music videos for both a rock band, and for young kids and their parents.”
