    Garbage and No Doubt immediately come to mind, I'm sure I have seen more though. Have to think more.

    I saw Alanis on the Jagged Little Pill tour.  That was a helluva show. 

    An artist named Hemming opened for an acoustic Chris Cornell show I went too  She was pretty amazing live.

    I saw The Sugarcubes with Bjork fronting them in either 1989 or 90 in the SF Bay Area. She was great.

    I just remembered that I saw L7, and Sleater-Kinney. Both amazing female bands.

    Great list. I forgot about Patti Smith. I saw one of her New Years shows at the Bowery Ballroom. I used to be friends with Lenny Kaye. He lived in my neighborhood. But I have lost touch with him over the years. Nice guy.

    Check out main street jukebox facebook page. Lenny Kaye must live out there. He's always stopping by that record store to sign stuff. That was my go to record store on rsds past. If you buy anything, they sell so many boots now so be careful if you care.

    I checked it out. I wonder if he did move to PA. He was living in the East Village when I knew him. I wish I was still in touch with him. He is really cool. I used to collect glass Coca Cola bottles from around the world. I had told him that I didn't have any from South America. He went on tour there, and brought me back a bottle from Brazil. I still have it. I also remember going to this Irish pub with him a few times (that has since closed down), and drinking Jameson's with him. I used to also be friends with Richard Lloyd (from Television) around the same time. We had a falling out, however, and I haven't talked to him in over 10 years.

    Charlene Kaye (as the lead vocalist for San Fermin - she no longer is with that band, unfortunately). She was just the coolest performer. I believe she is now just known as KAYE and is a solo artist. Her solo style isn't my thing, and I'm really sad she left San Fermin.

    Grace is a good show.

    Alannah Myles opened for Robert Plant. As I recall she was pretty good but my memory is real fuzzy......

    also saw Liz Phair a couple years ago open for Billy Corgan on his songbook tour
