Review:
I know we had their major label debut as well as their first album on Epitaph before the show, so we were familiar with all the songs.

The Excentrics at Nick’s Nightclub, Alexandria, VA, USA
Review:
I started realizing I was never going to add to my ticket stub collection at Nick’s, so started saving receipts. I’m guessing it was just beer.

The Cranberries at National Mall, Washington, DC, USA
Review:
A legendary show for all the wrong reasons. I mentioned previously WHFS had been hosting lunchtime shows at Franklin Park in DC, and as they were getting more popular, moved to a theater near the Washington Monument. But thousands showed, and it was a disaster.

Morphine with Please at Black Cat, Washington, DC, USA
Review:
If you’re a Morphine fan, you really like the band, and the Black Cat was full of them. I had the albums, but my favorite song of the night was “Pulled Over The Car”, then only a Japanese extra track from Yes.

Blues Traveler with Xanax 25 at Charles E. Smith Center, George Washington University, Washington, DC, USA
Review:
My first Blues Traveler show, and Heather came too. I remeber the hard bleacher seats at the Charles E. Smith Center, and really enjoying Blues Traveler. “Run-Around” was a huge hit and the crowd went nuts for it. I really liked their cover of War’s “Low Rider” as well.
