No Doubt Weezer Red Five   Third year in a row for Weezer! Nice! This was my second experience at the World's Fair Park, but it was my first time seeing a show on the "lawn". The first time I saw Weezer was at the Amphitheater at the park, so it was covered and had […]

Self The Doubters Club The Features   First off, a little housekeeping. I couldn't find any photos of The Doubters Club. This was a local band in Knoxville back in the 90s and I believe that they were closely related to The Judybats. So it was extremely difficult to find any photo evidence of this […]

Weezer Ash   The very first thing that I think of when I remember this show is 'Cold'. I remember the day being cold, the night being much colder. Just all around freezing. Another big thing I recall were the events of the day of the show. First off, I was sick. That may explain […]

Superdrag Nada Surf The Gravel Pit   In the Post-Grunge days that was the mid 90s, we started getting inundated with some very strong power pop. The bands we saw on this faithful day were no different and fit this mold perfectly. Now, I'm just gonna lay it down right here. I remember fuck all […]

Bush Goo Goo Dolls No Doubt   1996. What a great year to see some amazing music. This show was no different. Bush was starting to become a giant, as were Goo Goo Dolls. The latter had a couple of hits, and this was just a few short years away from 'Iris'. So they weren't […]

R.E.M. Luscious Jackson   Second concert experience. This show was at Thompson-Boling Arena, which is huge venue where the basketball games are usually played. I don't know if I'd ever been there before. Maybe a game or two. But this was much different. It was just three of us this time and we actually had […]

Weezer Teenage Fanclub that dog.   This is the first time I saw live bands play. I'd just turned fifteen a couple of months prior to this and we were going to see Weezer! They had started to get fairly popular at this time when 'Undone' and 'Buddy Holly' were on heavy radio and video […]

I have been attending concerts and other musical events since I was 15, way back in 1995. I have saved (or at least tried to) all of my ticket stubs from my 20+ years. I fiddle with them every once in a while, but nothing really happens to them. Several years back I discovered a […]
