I remembered three more I want to add to my list:<P>Foo Fighters -- Electric Factory<BR>Sonic Youth -- 9:30<BR>Burning Brides -- Black Cat<P><BR>Worst shows of the year.............the crappy saccharine pop of OKGO and the trainwreck known as The Vines at 9:30.  Also, Chris Whitley at iota.  He was so far gone on something (smack, I presume) that he couldn't play his guitar.  So the guitar tech played while Whitley mumbled incoherent, delusional, extemporaneous lyrics into the mic.  It was sad, truly sad.
