October concert flashbacks

10/01 Concert flashback #114: Them Crooked Vultures at Stubb’s (in Austin TX) in 2009. Saw them three times that month (also only seen John Paul Jones three times).
10/02 Concert flashback #115: Van Halen at Wachovia Center in 2007. I would have missed their appearance in DC due to the Edhead cruise, and didn’t want to miss their reunion with David Lee Roth, so went up to Philly to see them (and got my “Geno’s Whiz wit”). In honor of listening to the show today, I had a cheesesteak and some chips with Geno’s flavoring for lunch.
10/05 Concert flashback #116: The String Cheese Incident at Patriot Center in 2003. I believe this was my first concert with Stuart as my concert buddy.
10/06 Concert flashback #117: Phish at Patriot Center in 1994. My first Phish show, and a good one.
10/07 Concert flashback #118: Paul Simon at the National Mall in 2000 for the Web MD Rock N Race. Decided to bring my camera, hoping I wouldn’t get busted.
10/08 Concert flashback #119: Lindsey Buckingham at State Theatre in 2006. Link has a hint to the next day’s flashback too.
10/09 Concert flashback #120: Eric Clapton at Verizon Center in 2006 with Derek Trucks and Doyle Bramhall II playing a number of Derek and the Dominos songs.
10/12 Concert flashback #121: Grateful Dead at US Air Arena in 1994. My first and last Jerry show.
10/13 Concert flashback #122: Vote for Change at MCI Center in 2004. My review here.
10/14 Concert flashback #123: Foo Fighters at The Anthem in 2017.
10/15 Concert flashback #124: Chris Cornell at Strathmore in 2015.
10/16 Concert flashback #125: Peter Gabriel at Patriot Center in 2012. Got an official release too.
10/19 Concert flashback #126: Dave Matthews at The Paramount in 2001. The full story of why I flew across the country for one song.
10/20 Concert flashback #127: Roger Waters at Constitution Hall in 2015 for MusiCorps.

Diddy, NSYNC, Destiny’s Child, Rod Stewart, Goo Goo Dolls, Train & Mariah Carey for United We Stand at RFK Stadium in 2001. Michael Jackson performed last, but the concert had been going on for 12 hours and I’d waited over an hour between Train & Mariah Carey and I was beat and left during Mariah. I regret that now. Accurate review here.
