I Hate Myself- Live (1/2) 6/28/97 Kingston, Pa

I Hate Myself from Gainesville, Florida perform June 28th, 1997 at the Independent Firehall in Kingston, Pennsylvania as part of a 3 day hardcore festival, Wilkes-Barre Fest. VHS to DVD 1 of 2 part 2 : From wikipedia: I Hate Myself was an emotive hardcore (or “emo“) band formed by Jon and Jim Marburger, in 1996 in Gainesville, Florida. I Hate Myself were poking fun at emo/screamo bands' tendency to favor drawn-out and often nonsensical song titles that usually do not reflect any themes or lyrics within the song. Liner notes to albums were extremely minimal and sometimes filled with self-deprecation from the band. After a string of vinyl-only releases in the mid to late 1990s, the band split up. Soon afterwards the band finally agreed to their first CD release, a collection of their full length Ten Songs LP with one extra track, their contribution to a split 7“ with Strikeforce Diablo. The Marburger brothers went on to form Burnman, expanding on the louder side of I Hate Myself's sound. That band dissolved soon after releasing their debut LP, and drummer Jon Marburger joined fellow No Idea artists Gunmoll. The band reunited for two shows on one night in Gainesville in 2003. They requested any audio or video footage be sent to them, fueling fans to wonder if a live release might see the light of day. No plans for such a release have been announced. In 2005, the Marburgers recorded three new I Hate Myself tracks for a one-sided LP release. Bass was overdubbed by Jon Marburger in lieu of reuniting with the original bassist or finding a replacement. Currently, the two brothers are playing together again in Die Hoffnung, who released their first album in 2006, once again on No Idea. A 15-song CD, collecting all the remaining tracks not found on the Ten Songs CD release, has been planned since early 2005, but has not yet materialized. The band got their name from going through and experiencing depression.
