Pearl Jam 3x

Liz Phair

I know I'm forgetting a few. I don't like seeing bands in huge stadiums, so I've missed out on a few. I went to a few festival type concerts, but I never really made it to the stage to hear the bands. :D

By chance did you see these guys at the same time?  You listed one after the other so just curious... I saw these three in concert in college... probably 94 or 95...

Yup, I saw them at the same time. I was in college too. I'm thinking it was in '95. It was a long drive. My roommate was a hugh 311 fan who got me hooked on them. Good concert... although it was a little smoky in there.

I dont feel quite so bad about New Kids on the Block. :D In my defense, my sisters went and my dad made me go with them.

 

Other than them and Kid Rock, most of the concerts I have seen have been in small venues. A few are Texas country singers, most of you have probably never heard of, though.

Anyone see Rasaan Roland Kirk? Excllent performer and he used to play in a jazz club in Milwaukee to a sparse audience and you could get up real close.

 

1343694[/snapback]

 

 

 

 

he died well before my concert-going time (late 70s, i believe) :D

 

he's one of those guys i'd give just about anything to have seen in person.

Nice, I saw the same show then. Sounds like '95. Right on campus for us, at the world-famous Thunderdome at UC Santa Barbara. And yeah, it was smoky at ours too... :D

It's amazing that you can still HEAR! By far the LOUDEST band I have ever seen. I could actually feel the kickdrum rattling my ribcage :D

Actually the loudest concert I have ever seen was HUM at the 400 bar in Mpls...it was rediculous...You could hear it blocks away...Glad I had my ear plugs that day

Yeah, '77 think. I saw him around '72 or '73. He was at a small club with a 20-50 person audience. Very few people ever saw him there. A real shame he didn't get more respect.
