Atticus Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 One time Lauren, Pete and I were at a Wilco show in Chicago and I fought a space heater with my light saber. And won. It happened during the bridge section of Theologians. I struck the fatal blow during "a ghost is born, a ghost is born." It was incredible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I was at a Jerry Garcia show, and the people in front of us were smoking up a big fat joint. My brother and I, two legendary stoners, were right over their heads, so they generously offered to pass it up our way. But we were both clean and sober, so we politely declined. Oh, wait, that actually did happen... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost of Electricity Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Went to see the Replacements in the late 80s, my pockets stuffed with guitar picks because Slim was supposed to get to drunk to play night and Paul was supposed to ask for volunteers to take his place. edit: sorry I lied. That didn't happen February 15, 1991. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I got to sit on Jerry's shoulders once during a fierce Morning Dew. He was bobbing and weaving a bit so I just cupped my hands under his chin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jw harding Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 First time seeing Floyd at Soldier Field in 94. They opened with Astronomy Domine. Much to the surprise of the audience, they had put the stadium on top of a giant axis and began spinning it around in a circle. Some people thought it was just an effect from the video, but I know better... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
roadhse ma Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 When the 5th Encore ended and the band had taken their final bows ...I had finally gotten the setlist, song for song that I had hoped for, all these years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mountain bed Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 The thing I'll always remember that never happened was when Chrissie Hynde gave me a backstage pass. We got to be alone for a few minutes, and she delivered one helluva spankin' to me while she made me sing "private life drama, baby, leave me out" over and over. I wasn't allowed to sing the word "STOP". What a woman. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jw harding Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 The stage transformed into a log cabin, and the bobbing crowd into the waves on a lake. Afterwards, my friend said he saw the same thing. I think he's nuts, but don't have the guts to tell him. Who am I to disagree? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
