The Cult - Saddledome - Grade 11 at the time. Friends had floor seats and passed us their tickets over the boards in a drink so we got in to join them on the floor. I was a HUGE fan back then and this was like my Holy Grail moment at the time. Remember it being a great show made that much better by sneaking on to the floor.
Eek-A-Mouse - Lake Tahoe - Bit hazy on dates, probably around 97? A buddy was graduating from Sierra Nevada College and they brought in Eek-A-Mouse for their grad party. Super small event, great people, and great music.
DRI - The Republic - 18th birthday made this one hit the list. Free drinks, ear shattering music, and excellent mosh pit.
Blue Rodeo - The Gateway @ SAIT - What more needs to be said about Blue Rodeo? Fantastic show and the venue was intimate and awesome.
Pink Floyd - The Division Bell Tour - Being a huge Pink Floyd fan through school, I never thought I'd get to see them live. Loved the show.
