someone refresh my memory, why did the tahoe show get switched to sacramento?
The Tahoe show was scheduled for the slopes of the Boreal ski area on Donner Summit, but they got 50 feet of snow that winter, and the heavy snowpack forced them to cancel. A mid or late summer show would've been fine, but not June...
The Tahoe cancellation and the Polo Field fiasco forever changed my life. Living in Sacramento my mom wouldn't let me go to Tahoe but when the venue got moved to Cal Expo I was able to see my first show. Then when Ed got Sick in San Francisco at a show I couldn't get to I was able to hit the makeup show in San Jose that November. Those two shows turned me into the fanatic that I still am today, 40 shows later.
That San Jose boot is one of my favorites. Great story!
Man, this is some nostalgic shit right here. That order form takes me back to being 14 and the most excited I think I’ve ever been in my life.
Lastexit78, do you still live in sac?
Yeah I’m still in the Sacramento area. Hoping the band plays another show here in my lifetime, it has been 18 years. The Golden One Center is an exceptional venue acoustically.
Me too. Lost some shirts. Look for the shirt with the guys face in a mask and the Anal og T-shirt. Not Vitalogy era, but just throw it out there. White. XL.
