    Hartford has never disappointed...Even when we got pepper sprayed by security in 1996 - it was an amazing show!

    A drive down from Atlantic Canada would be sweet! I had such a great time at their '08 show there.

    The 2010 show was one of my favorites.  The 2006 show is probably the worst non festival show I ve been to.  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Hartford '98 was my first time seeing them. 

    Hartford '10 established them as a must see band for me after seeing them only once in the preceding 9 years. 

    Hartford '13 is one of the greatest concerts I've seen by any band. 


    Please play Hartford again.
