    I lived 2 hours east of Toronto at the time and had just turned 16 which meant no drivers licence..my buddy bailed and I wasn't allowed to head to the city by myself and I missed that show..I had a hard time forgiving him ..that line up is amazing..

    I was around the same age at the time.... I had to work that morning, and my manager kept me a little late.... my friend and I rushed down to the CNE, and asked around if PJ had gone on stage yet... everyone said that they thought they hadn't..... we bought scalper tickets.... we got into Exhibition Stadium in time to hear "...THEY'RE ALL WASTED!!!..... Thank You Toronto!" and PJ left the stage....

    THAT was the crappiest day of my 16 year old life. :(

    Those are 2 very sad stories.....not to rub salt in old wounds BUT that was one of the greatest days of my 16 year old life. A great introduction to the concert scene

    ...speaking of being wasted - Eddie was soooooooo drunk at that show. I saw an interview with him on MuchMusic the day of the show and he made NO sense (he was sporting a bottle of wine), could barely open his eyes....pretty interesting - I have looked all over youtube to find video of the interview but have had no luck

    ...at least you got to see Neil in all his glory
    In my world everyone is a pony,

    James, at the Edinburgh Playhouse - all seating! Was in about 1990.
  • Faith No More, Metallica, and Guns and Roses. Back in 92, I was 13, i think. FNM and Metallica were the shit. GnR (well, Axl) sucked. Also the Metrodome is no place for a concert... too echoey (is that a word?)
    Minneapolis 98, Chicago 00, San Fransisco 00, Fargo 03, Thunder Bay 05, St Paul 06 (night 2), Chicago 08 (EV) both nights

    Don't it make you smile?
