A couple of standouts were The Clash in 1982 at the St Paul Civic Center.
2024 The Kills @ First Avenue in Minneapolis. The filthy things Jamie did to that guitar.
I bet we were at some of the same shows if you were doing First Ave/Fine Line/Turf Club/Uptown Bar in the '90s.
I'll take Replacements at 7th Street Entry in early 1986. Westerberg did If Only You Were Lonely solo acoustic as an encore while getting pelted with beer bottles from off stage.
Most memorable (in hindsight) would be Stevie Ray Vaughan at Alpine Valley the night before the helicopter crash.
Replacements are one of my favorite bands but somehow I've never managed to see them live. Still think they shoukd have played the super bowl with Fancy Ray instead of that Bruno guy.
