Title: First and most recent 9:30 show
Post by: hemisphire on May 28, 2010, 09:53:23 am
Just curious - what was everyone's first and most recent show at the club?

My first was Sweet Water/Sun-60 9/10/93, most recent Trey Anastasio 2/9/10.

i'm not 100% positive what my first 930 show was.  could have been the roots in 2005.  might have caught something in 2004.

most recent... i think that would be PiL.  on bit a dry spell recently, looking forward to being back at the club on monday :D

Altered Images in 83 or 84, Devo in 09? It seems like I have seen something more recently, but I can't remember what it was.
Too much loud music has left me with memory problems.

I went to three shows at the old club, in 1995 or 1996. Can't remember exact dates, or which show came first. They were Wilco, Jeff Buckley, and Matthew Sweet.

edit: The Jeff Buckley was either Dec 94 or May 95.

Dr. Dog two weeks ago was my most recent 9:30 Club show.

It was either the Verve, Urge Overkill or Monster Magnet at the old club. I know the Verve was July 95, and the other two were right around then, but I can't say for sure which came first

Most recent... That's a tough one, as its been more than a year since I've been there. I really can't remember.

1st at old 930: Dillon Fence '94. The club moved shortly thereafter.
Went through my Bayou/Black Cat phase, then, 1st at new: JSBX/Cibo Matto/Jesus Lizard NYE '97.
Our car was broken into. Dampened the after show high but learned lessons quick.

Most recent? Wow, just realized I don't think I've been this year. Snowpocalypse, then traveling, kept me away. Otherwise, I would have seen Air, Anvil, Jakob Dylan and Mumford & Sons. Last show was either Josh Ritter, or Ben Gibbard / Jay Farrar last Dec.

I think my first was Kasabian in 2005ish... Last one, I think was Sonic Youth last summer.  I might be wrong on both though.

while looking for the arctic monkeys stub, i came across one, dated 25 feb 2005 for... STS9.  i'm pretty sure that pre-dates the roots show that year.  i hope that wasn't my first show.

First: Helmet (Nov. 16, 2004)
Last: BRMC (Apr. 5, 2010)

I'm from Hampton Roads, VA, so I remember attending the Helmet show and thinking, "This place is like The NorVa!" Haha.

My first D.C. area show was probably Glassjaw or Local H a few years earlier. I also saw Pearl Jam in Bristow in 2003 and Ambulance LTD at Black Cat in 2004 before finally going to the 9:30 Club.

Cookies and Cream one (I was holding him up by the sound booth when his sound guy gave him the bar).  Loved the throw, looked like a direct hit.

I was thinking that too - until I heard the album (way too campy for me).  I think I'll wait until Ms. Palmer comes around again on just a solo tour.
