I saw them back in '90 or '91 and then again in '93 I believe. I saw them in my town of Jacksonville, FL. The Crowes rock! It's a great show. Straight ahead rock your socks off kind of stuff. And, you can get a great contact high at a Crowes show. If you have a chance I would highly recommend seeing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundog Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 ahhh a very exclusive concert attendance record pour moi... every tour since Presto (my first "real" concert) Most of these shows I went to 2x Kiss (at the now closed Tiger Stadium in Detroit) This tour was filmed and used for video footage since it was the first concert that they resumed wearing their make up. Tom Petty ( Wild Flowers) Would have preferred to see him with the Heartbreakers but I did get to see him! Ozzy (Never at an Ozzfest)- 4x The first time I seen him was a small venue in downtown Detroit and he had a broken foot from falling off the stage 2 days prior in Chicago and he postponed the rest of the tour... but he Rocked like there was nothing that could stop him....hmmmmmmm I wonder just how much dope he shot to numb the pain to perform that night??? Collective Soul New Years Eve - 2004 They rocked '05 in at an outdoor concert in Niagara Falls - What a memory. hmmmmm any one else??? oh yeah...(whispers Glass Tiger) -when I was 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
