By this time Eric and I had purchase Woodstock ’94 tickets, but we already had Nine Inch Nails tickets so saw 2 shows in a row by them. According to the NIN Wiki, this was the live debut of “Burn”. This is the only time I saw Marilyn Manson and wasn’t a big fan.
My first (and so far only) Lollapalooza experience. Green Day was just getting big so they were fun, and Beastie Boys and The Smashing Pumpkins definitely earned their headliner status.

It was around this time of the year after I was working in the record store that I made myself a goal of seeing 100 different artists in concert in 1994. The Rolling Stones seemed like a must see (would have never thought they’d still be going strong 30 years later), and it was a good show, with Counting Crows a very nice opener as I’d fully digested their album by that time.
I made it back to Hammerjacks, this time for another sold out Dave Matthews Band show. Like the Brian May show, I was likely in the balcony – I quickly established that at most of the local venues, it was my favorite place to see bands. This was the first show when I’d had time to absorb the tapes my sister gave me, and likely danced like a white boy does the entire time. I’ve got the Gibb Droll Band CD, but I don’t remember their set.

Another free WHFS show at Franklin Park. I know they did their hit (a cover of New Order’s “Bizarre Love Triangle”), but nothing else.

The Harbourfest was held at Georgetown Waterfront Park right across from The Bayou from 1992-1994. This day was all WHFS artists. I was there for emmet swimming, of course, but also liked The Dambuilders (second band after Dave Matthews Band who had a violin player) and Sam Phillips (love her voice and the single “Baby I Can’t Please You”).

I returned to Fat Tuesday’s to what was likely another multi set evening, but I don’t remember it.

I must have gone here because Eric lived in Woodbridge and I’d been raving about the band.

Tickets must have been free from the record company; don’t remember the show.

When the first show sold out, I instantly bought tickets to the second night (and that was smart, as this turned out to be their last tour). It was fun seeing the same show again (except they switched out one “The Division Bell” song) as I could focus on other things (this time I was watching to see the giant disco ball in the middle of the field show up).
