Bradley, Kurt & Shannon

Wasn't Lane's body found something like a week or two after he died? What an awful way to have gone.

Was gonna go to that Hedberg show in College Park that took place right before he died and from what I've heard, it was a good thing I didn't make it; he supposedly read the whole routine off of pieces of paper and seemed completely out of it.

Wiki says yes.
They found his body April 19, 2002. Supposedly he only weighed 86 lbs at the time of his death too - he was 6'1" - ewww.

"The King County Coroner's Office estimated Staley to have died on April 5, 2002. By coincidence, the same Coroner's Office estimated Kurt Cobain to have died on the same day eight years prior."

"i used to do drugs. i still do, but i used to, too."

The bigger issue is who would've wanted to? Out of the three initial musical acts listed, only Nirvana was even remotely redeeming.

In theory, I'd admit to a homosexual affair with a family member before I'd admit to seeing Sublime in concert. The fact some of you aren't at all ashamed about this fact is one of the most bizarre things I've ever encountered on this board.

I think I still have a copy of Robbin the Hood lying around somewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised to find some boardies who have seen these. I saw the "Cut The Crap" version of The Clash, but I'm not going to count that one. Ugh.

Anyone see Pink Floyd with Sid?

Man, I wish he was alive so I could ask him what diet he was on.

Here's your chance - why don't you just admit to both and save yourself years of therapy?

Well, I figure I'll already be in therapy for a list of other things, so what's the point?

double post fail.

Chicklet teeth are unattractive, but 86lbs is undeniably all kinds of hotness.

caught Nirvana twice on the In Utero tour . . . but not the others.

saw Miles Davis at Constitution Hall not long before he passed. that was awesome.

never saw blind melon or sublime - they were before my time in the US

saw Nirvana in 1991 in Dublin one month before the release of Nevermind opening for Sonic Youth - incredible show

saw Nirvana when they toured on Bleach [@9:30 w/ Loop & Thud, yeah!], Nevermind, & In Utero.

Pretty sure I saw Blind Melon at the club too but would have to look that up. Was never a fan but was usually around the club for most shows during that time.

And I saw Sublime when I booked 'em at Republic Gardens back in 1995. Dude was a mess, our guys had to carry him down the satirs and load him into the van.

Saw the MInutemen, Replacements w/ Bob, The Clash, Alice In Chains, Material Issue put on a great show at the 9:30 way back whenever.

Um, does the 930 Club show in early '97, I think, right before OK computer came out (not the one the night of the Tibetian Freedom Concert in DC) count? …if so, then yes. :D

And of course Twangirl gets the trifecta!! ..the Nirvana show that she's talking about is probably the one that my roomate (worked at 930 Club since about '88) has a few Nirvana shirts from. When he was moving in, I saw them and thought they were pretty cool. He proceeded to tell me how he got them, so I'll hijack his story..

He was doing the merch that night. End of show, he goes into the office to settle up and comes back out and everything is loaded up in the trailer their van was pulling. He says, "Damn, I wanted to get a couple of those shirts we were selling." To which Kurt replied, "We packed them in the trailer, but hold on…" So Kurt proceeds to climb in the trailer, over all the gear, etc., and is digging through boxes holding them up and saying "You want this one? …how about this one? …or this one?" ..Kurt ended up giving him 3 of them.

My roomate said that he thought that, contrary to what alot of people thought about him, Kurt was really a good guy and very caring/thoughtful in the way he interacted with him and the rest of the 930 staff. …but again, this was probably in 1989 or 90, before they blew up so big.

yeah if you were asking 20somethings about seeing those three, you probably were going to be SOL with getting answers supporting your statement as being true. while it's pretty likely there's a good number of people that regularly went to shows that saw all three, you really are going to have to ask around with people 30+. nirvana's last US tour was 15 years ago, so a 30YO would have been 15 then.

i know someone that saw two of the three. no idea if they were a sublime fan or not, so i have no idea if they saw them or not.

Raises hand

Saw the Replacements open for X right around the time "I Will Dare" came out… Hung out with Bob Stinson at a post concert party. Also saw The Replacements perform as a surprise act at a R.E.M. show.

Saw Joe Strummer on his first solo tour for "Earthquake Weather"

Not sure if I saw the original line-up of the Ramones, too many changes in the drummer seat to keep up. Dee Dee was with them, but it was after he was beat up in New York and he just didn't the energy of he early days at that point.

Other original lineups seen Big Country, Oasis, Undertones and Wall of Voodoo

oh yeah - Mike Watt w/ Eddie Vedder (guitar) and Dave Grohl on drums. It was like seeing the Cream of my generation. Also, the first Foo Fighters Tour (two drum sets) and Hoovercraft (Vedder wearing a mask and "playing drums")

Jeff Buckley?

@ old 9:30?

Was very good night
