First Concert: Tori Amos. Technically, Smothers Brothers & the Kingston Trio with my folks, but my first real concert was Tori in '95. Mostly I remember the ginormous drum that came out for Take To The Sky.
Last Concert: A fiddle player at Coldsnap 2020, right before the plague hit. I miss concerts.
Best Concert: David Bowie, 1997. I borrowed Vond's car and drove up to DC for an absofucking amazing show.
Worst Concert: Ash, at Area:2, who I described at the time as "um. punk and forgettable."
Loudest Concert: Probably Garbage. Loud isn't really my thing.
Seen the Most: Girlyman, and it's not even close. </3
Most Surprising: Blue Man Group, again at Area:2. I had no idea what I was in for. It was enough fun that when they did their own tour a year or two later I drove four hours to see them again. Twice. In just over a week.
Next Concert: jeez, I don't know, unless Erin and I end up at a music festival in a couple of weeks, in which case I still don't know.
Wish I Could Have Seen: Circa 2000, give or take a year, I was back in the DC area in October for Renfest, and Emily and I were in Falls Church to see if there was anything interesting at the Compleat Strategist. We drove past the chintzy theatre on whatever the road is that leads around to East Falls metro, and the marquee proclaimed WARREN ZEVON in a couple of weeks. I absolutely should have come back up for that, but I didn't, and in another few years he was gone.
