Jesus, this would take me forever.

The thought of even trying to compile this list is giving me a headache. I will say though, my favorite venue is the House of Blues in Chicago and the worst venue I've been to is CBGB's. I appreciate its history and importance in music, but dear lord what a dump it was.

I was at CBGB's just once, after it closed. A bunch of us were on a pub crawl and somehow walked up on the day they were ripping the toilets out. We were able to walk in and take a quick look and it was a complete mess as it was being dismantled. I should see if I have any pictures of that, I remember someone posing with their head almost in a urinal that was laying on the sidewalk.

Almost?? But think of all the famous piss that's flowed through those urinals.

I did that the other day in a guitar solo thread. I went through and found youtube links for a bunch of tunes and when I hit submit it erased all my shit. It was quite a let down. I'd put remarks for all the different songs. It probably took an hour for me to type it all out and find the links.

Do you guys not keep ticket stubs? It took me about 5 minutes to flip through my old tickets and figure it out. I know some of you are in cities and have been to hundreds of shows, I have to travel around 2 hours to see any band worth mentioning, so not quite the chore for me.

I just thought this would be more interesting on a music message board than the stadiums one.

of the ticket stubs...and my memory

Yeah, I think I killed the thread with my barrage of links with no explanation or song titles for any of it. I hope some people clicked on a few links and like what they heard at least.

My main problem is that I've been to so many shows at really small venues where there have been no ticket stubs (ex. Fireside Bowl in Chicago)...plus I've moved so much that all the stubs I do have are in a million different places. But it would be cool to try to figure it out!

That's no bullshit either. I saw Mike Watt there. He hugged me after the show.
Unfortunately Stache's closed in '97.
