    Something about Public Enemy being on the same bill as the Fresh Prince is very wrong ;)

    Pearl Jam w/Sonic Youth
    Starlake
    Pittsburgh, PA
    2000

    There was a family emergency, and Thurston and Kim couldn't be at the show. So Ed came out and did a 4 song preset that was amazing (I was a very new fan and only knew "Parting Ways," but still), and then Lee sang all of his Sonic Youth songs.

    Pearl Jam opened with "Even Flow" and the setlist was just great.

    Great show.

    Great bootleg, too.

    in 89, Jeff and Prince were as legit as a hop hop star could get. They were the shit back then!!! He didn't say Public Enemy either, just the S1W's which is just their dancers.

    that sounds like another great rap concert man, Kane and the Biz.....

    I remember this thread on the old Pit and I was damn near embarrassed to put my first concert. Then it turned out somebody else posted practically the same thing.

    3 Dog Night, August 1969, Fort Worth, TX
    I was 14

    I did manage to make up for it within the next year by seeing a lot of better acts than that, including Jimi Hendrix.
