Today we have a small batch of fresh videos taken straight from Black Sheep Fest 2014 which happened last weekend. Earlier this past week we revealed a good chunk of photos taken from the festival which featured 23 Springfield bands, and now we are here today with three new videos. These videos include sets of bands Bad Banshee, Blind Social (pictured above), and Mouthsex. You can find those all below, or head over to the newly created Dumb Records/Black Sheep youtube page.

Don’t forget we have a vids/pics page on this site where you can find pictures and videos ranging from now to all nine years of Black Sheep history. To check out more photos of this year’s Black Sheep Fest, go to our Black Sheep Fest 2014 flickr album.

There have been a lot of great videos of Springfield bands performing lately, so we are going to keep the good video ball rolling today by brining you two newer videos of Springfield’s newest folk duo, Wilt Candy performing at Black Sheep and Dumb Records. The first video is of a performance at Black Sheep last month at a show where Two Knights and Our Lady also played. The second is of the band performing live at Dumb Records earlier in June. You can check out both videos below.

Wilt Candy will be performing next at Black Sheep a week from today on Saturday, July 19th along with Jess Knight, Foreign Lawns, Akaname, and Ego & The Ids. They will also e performing as part of Black Sheep Fest 2014 happening on Saturday, July 26th.

Thanks to Black Sheep show go-er and volunteer here at blacksheepspringfield.com Austin Duffie, we now have a great mini-documentary on the Black Sheep and DIY punk culture. The project was for a high school class project focusing on types of groups and subcultures. What Austin ended up with was this beautiful video he created (which you can watch below). The video features footage of plenty of bands performing at Black Sheep (Say Something (pictured above), Koji, boon, Akaname), as well as a couple of interviews (Bo Mellado, Koji, Aubrey Puyear).

It was eight whole months ago, but the first video has finally surfaced from Dumb Fest back in June. Dumb Fest was held at Black Sheep and Skank Skates, and this video is of the set of Chicago’s Angry Gods performing at Skank Skates. Thanks to Hugh Soward we have this twenty-minute long video of the entire Angry Gods set. Will there be more videos? Who knows. Will there be another Dumb Fest this year? Hmmmm….

Between yesterday’s video of Kharbdis’s first set and today, we are coming at you with double back-to-back video footage of bands performing at Black Sheep! Today’s video is of young pop-punk band Negative 17. This video comes from the band’s set at one of our most recent shows on Friday, February 7th. The band pulled off an incredibly high-energy set accompanied with a fancy light show, a couple of covers, and the smashing of a guitar on our stage at the very end. The video comes in two parts. You can find part one below, and part two to the video right here. Don’t forget to also check out our vids/pics page where you can find a large collections of videos and pictures taken throughout the years at Black Sheep.
