Minor Threat - They broke up right before I got into hardcore.

This goes for me as well.  Still could have seen Circle Jerks, Black Flag, etc but this is the one that bothers me.


Nirvana - could/should have gone 11/18/91 at the old 930. I wasn't in town when they last played the area.

Jeff Buckley makes 3.

Edit: had a ticket to see the Replacements with Bob Stinson but the show got cancelled. I was fully aware if their drunken performances and would have loved it.

Elliott Smith
Pulp
Daft Punk

I got to see Elliott with Heatmiser, once solo, twice electric. He was/is one of my very favorites. Can't wait to see the documentary this weekend.

Got to see Pulp 3 times....once opening for Blur, then headlining the 9:30, then at Tibet. They were always great. I think my favorite was when they opened for Blur.

LOL, no I'm sorry...just wanted to say that those are good choices and that I like your taste. I'm sure that I have told the Pulp story before. I saw Jarvis Cocker on the street before I saw them and (remember, this is before the internet and before you know what EVERYONE looked like before you saw them) and I thought "who is THAT??" And then he was on the stage and he was one of the most enigmatic and random people I had ever seen on a stage. He basically ate a bunch of fruit and it was fantastic. There a couple way older guys totally geeking out on Candida's keyboard. So much fun.

As for Elliott, I saw him 3 times in 2000. He started off looking like he did on the cover of Figure 8. He even wore the "LA" sweatshirt that he had on the cover. By the end he dropped weight and looked like Jesus. The last song I heard him perform was a cover of "Don't Fear the Reaper". I was stunned to see how much he changed over the course of 9 months.

I have seen Pulp and Daft Punk.  Pulp in the 90's at the club in their prime and they were pretty good.  Daft Punk with some giant pyramid was not all that great and I didn't stick around for the whole show.

Seen the last two.  Saw Jesus Jones in Manchester, England back in the day.  Figured I was the only Jesus Jones fan on here.
