I've been to many great shows at the club but the one that stands out the most for me was this one. I still get chills up my spine when I think of it.
oooh yes, yet another A+ show.

coldplay august 2002
chemical brothers september 1999
living colour august 2001

but i can't remember half the shows i've been at. that coldplay definitely ranks up there though. i'll have to grab my old scrapbooks and look thru all the old concert stubs.
I second the rage against the machine oct 31,1999 show. It was an amazing show.

i wish i was able to go to shows there a year ago…i would have loved to see Nirvana who played 930 a long time ago(to me atleast)
The one that immediately springs to mind is the Bauhaus reunion show a few years back.

Garbage 4/30/2002

Sleater-Kinney 10/20/2002
I just moved here so out of the, um, 3 shows I've seen (Dandy Warhols, Hot Hot Heat and Interpol). I'd have to say Interpol was the best.
Nick Cave May 2002
Wilco September 2001

Funny Walkman, because that White Stripes and that Clinic show were disappointing for me, although I know I am in the minority on the White Stripes and Interpol was good at the Clinic show.
