I was at this show!

Little backstory: I was a fan of most of the bands (don't recall hearing Loop Guru before) and was most excited to see UW and the CB's. I had never seen any of them before (although unbeknownst to me, it turns out I HAD seen the rock version of UW when they opened for The Eurythmics at Universal Amphitheater in '88. My only recollection of them was that they were really loud, forcing me to walk out of the arena to listen in the outside corridors to protect my ears). When UW took the stage, I was absolutely flabbergasted, and danced their entire set, something I'd never done before. Needless to say, I became an uber-fan of theirs, that lasts until this day (so ticked I had to miss them in Seattle this past week (05-20-25), as I couldn't afford a ticket.

But make no mistake... this show changed my life (and my listening habits)!
