Hello All...
Quick Story: My First Show: 1995, Washington DC, Constitution Hall w/ Neil Young
I was 16 years old, had a crappy car and no money. I knew they were coming and kept looking at newspaper ads to find tix. I actually prayed because I HAD to have a ticket. The cheapest ticket I could find was a guy selling a pair for $200. I sold everything I had, worked some odd jobs, and found a "friend" that would only pay $50 for their ticket. So, I ended up paying $150 for my ticket and ran out of gas on the way home.
But, they opened with Release, lights on behind them, so only their silhouettes shown. The music gets loud... lights come up... I'm in tears with hair standing up on my arms... It was like Xmas when I was 3 all over again, trading fact for magic..(sometimes there are tradebacks) Worth every penny to get there and every ft/lb of work....
Now I'm trying to relive my greatest memories like everyone else.
I would love to have these TOUR POSTERS to relive some memories before I make new ones:
-1995 Washington DC, Constitution Hall w/ Neil Young: Voters for Choice (I believe it was 1 poster for both nights)
-1998 Merriweather Post Pavilion, DC or Maryland depending on who you ask
-1998 Virginia Beach, Va
-1998 Tibetan Freedom Concert, Washington DC, RFK Stadium
-2000 Merriweather Post Pavilion, DC ( have never even seen a would be poster for this show as I think it was an added date)
I will pay cash, just want things I could never afford then...
Thanks for any help
