Pixies. This is about the same year I saw them At Villanova university. The opened up for Love and Rockets. Epic show. There's never gonna be another Pixies.

 

Ha! Love and Rockets is the only show I got backstage tickets to. Ran into some of the Roadies at a bar a couple of days before the show.

Hung out mostly with the roadies, it was a lot of fun for a 23yo

Replacements at the 7th street entry. Tommy Stinson was about 14.

 

Good 'ol local group. I found out about them in college. My roommate was really into music and found out our art teacher was Bob Stinson's ex wife. So they had a long conversation about their music and I was along for the ride.

That same roommate (who is now one of my best friends) and I just saw Rammstein this past weekend and that group puts on an amazing live show.

One of my best friends talks to Tommy and Peter Jespersen all the time on social media. Him and his cousin were in a Philly band called Marah, when they were in L.A. while touring in North America, Jesperson had them over for dinner. Here is a video of them when they were on Conan O'Brian back in 2000. My friend Joe is on bass and my friend Mick (his cousin) is on the kit.

I'm no musician - I have no abilities whatsoever - but this seems like an impossible-to-perform-live song due to its studio manipulation. 
I wish that Marty Stuart and his band could've played this back in April, but I understand the limitations of a four piece band (of immense talent).
None-the-less, here's a sweet live version from a few years ago, as performed with Roger McGuinn, Chris Hillman, Marty Stuart, and company.

I just saw them in Philadelphia on Wednesday. After attending 70 or 80 concerts in my life, I do believe that nothing will ever compare to what I witnessed Wednesday night. Rammstein is definitely a tough act to follow. I’m still upset that I couldn’t get a tour shirt though. The lines were ridiculous. Tried the line three times, but I didn’t want to miss the performance. Then at the end of the show the shirts were all sold out! Never had difficulty getting a shirt before. I guess that’s what happens when a band doesn’t tour the U.S. often. I’d go see them again today if I could.
