I saw PJ Harvey around 1995- maybe with Tricky as the opener? Really good. Beastie Boys were old and lame by the time I saw them, late 90s.
Mos Def kept a Philly crowd waiting about 10 years ago- they put on "The Score" to entertain us, twice, and then started pulling kids up on stage to freestyle until he got there. The excuse was "traffic".
Man I am just shitting on your dream shows!
I saw Sleater Kinney towards the end of their run and they were amazing!
I think I cried real tears the last time I missed out on Radiohead. They are the only band that I want to see that I haven't. Oh yeah and Lush.
A veritable shitstorm! No, it's cool. Mos was in Philly like a week ago and I missed it. St. Vincent and Wild Beasts are playing tomorrow night! Working. I'll be sure to get to the soonest and closest Lush and tell you how terrible it was.
