I’ve seen both Green Day and NIN in the last year and honestly they are each as good as they have ever been. I strongly encourage you to see them if you get the chance.

Oh Pearl Jam too. They may be the best touring band out there, though I’m not sure what’ll happen now that Matt retired.

I should have included Sublime in my list.

Excellent list. My first thought was to go catch a bunch of the early Lollapalooza shows & go to HFStival (a DC area one that brought in great bands). I don't know why I skipped them back then.

Secretly we all wish we'd caught some kind of Presidents or Toadies show.

Saw Green Day at a club in NJ right before ‘Dookie’ broke. Stood there surrounded by hundreds of kids singing along and thought “they’re gonna be huge”. Also realized I was too old to be trying to pull off the leather jacket at shows.

We lived on beacon hill in Boston when they started a riot at the hatch shell. Though they prevented us going to our favorite bar that night, I always respected them after that.
