'Debris' was a cable access show produced by Michael Bushman (Primitive Son), John Rider (Voodoo Love Mint) and a guy named Aaron did a lot of the technical production. Aaron also did another cable access show called, 'Beans' which conisted of himself, a blue screen with random images, and a telephone number for people to call. Cable access hilarity often ensued. With his production help and Bushman and Rider's music scene connections, the idea for 'Debris' was born.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Using a 'two or more' camera technique, Aaron and Bushman would be able to combine both the audio and video footage. This is WAY before desktop editing became accesible and much of this was done at the public access studio facilities.

 

Four bands were featured in the first (and only) episode to be produced.

 

Fat Tuesday  (Minneapolis, MN)

Primitive Son  (Eau Claire, WI)

Alligator Gun  (Milwaukee, WI)

Compound Red  (Milwaukee, WI)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The show also featured a couple of 'bumper' pieces including some puppetry and 'Grover' imitations (Bushman) and a cheap special fx attempt that pretty much worked, and cost $200 in security deposit for fire damage to the bathroom floor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Footage for a second show was shot (and still exists) and would have featured Arcwelder (Minneapolis, MN) and Voodoo Love Mint (Eau Claire, WI). Time restraints on the production end prevented further episodes from coming together.
