Sloan
Susan Tedeschi
St Etienne
St.Vincent
Stereolab
Sonic Youth
Blondie
Breeders
Bettie Serveert
Sheryl Crow

Since I think maybe they had the smallest window of time, Im'm going to guess Breeders?

Saw the last splash play in its entirety a few years ago


Saw the amps at 930 which really was a breeders show but whatever

I have only seen 2 of the bands on this list, guess which two?

Blondie and St Vincent

50%, Blondie and Sheryl Crow

I think I remember you saying your father or uncle were in some way connected to the jazz world. So can we assume you've seen all the jazz greats on the list?

Big Audio Dynamite and the Ramones are the only two I've seen on that list. At the same upstate NY metal venue (reminiscent of Jaxx) where I saw Iggy Pop and Fugazi. But I digress.

I feel like either Peter, Paul, and Mary existed longer than I have my head they did or you didn't see them.

I'm 500% sure you've seen Weird Al. That's as on-brand as possible.

I saw PPM in 89, 91 and 92, all at Wolf Trap. I'm 100% sure that none of these were my idea.
Weird Al and the Monkees double-billed at Merriweather, 87

Oh, I was way off. I did not think that group still existed in the early-90s.

Saw REM a ton throughout their run. Never saw The Police.
